Retiring Mayor Gives House
Warming for New Officials.
REVIEWS WORK DONE
Mayor Brown Appoints New
Officers and Committees.

The council meeting last Monday
evening was one of the most serenely
Deaceful that has marked the gather
ngs Of the city dads in many moons.
Mayor Leonard called the old coun-
eli to order at the usual hour, with
only the newly elected city officials
present, as spectators, and went
through the routine business, at the
close Of which he delivered brief
address, touching largely upon the
finances of the city as found two
years ago, and as they were being left.
-Four years ago, he said the city S
floating Indebtedness was 81, 900,
which had been increased to S16, 600
two years ago, at the time he and the
retiring council assumed control. The
first year this was decreased 81, 900,
and in the second year a like decrease
would have been marked but for the
liquidation of the accumulated $1,000
NJ. Jack water Indebtedness and
the payment of $500 interest on the
floating debt; this threw the contin-
gent and salary funds 5000 short. He
heartily thanked one and all of the
councilmen and officers who had
served with him through the two years
administration for their faithful work,
and then in spirit of hospitality and
gcodfellowship invited them and the
newly elected officials to adjourn with
hEn to the side room and partake of a
afll appointed lunch which he had
had prepared.
Immediately following lunch the
new officials were sworn in and as
sugmed the reins of government. Mayor
mown made brief, pointed address
on taking the chair, and after the
election of Frank VanDeventer as
Chairman of the council, at once
announced his appointments, as fol-
lows, which were confirmed by the
council.

Senator's Income Tax Speech
Greatest Heard in Years.
AND REASON
Galleries Packed to Hear Two
Days Address.

Once more Idaho is in the lime
light through the efforts of her able
representative. The dispatches state
that Senator Borah, on the compile
ton of his speech on the income tax
Tuesday, received one of the greatest
ovations accorded senator in years
for the delivery of an argument on
the floor of the senate chamber, re-
gardless of sympathy with the proposal
for taxing incomes. Senators, cores
pondents and gallery listeners con-
graduated the Idaho member for one
of the ablest addresses heard in recent
years.
After weeks of speaking on the tar
iff and associated topics, political
Washington was stated with oratory,
but Notwithstanding this Borah sue
ceeded in holding the attention of
the senators and keeping the galleries
filled throughout both days he had
the floor.
Income tax advocates were jubilant
over what they asserted had been an
unanswerable presentation of a diff
cult legal subject and claimed several
recruits might be added to the income
tax cause, largely by reason of Bor-
ah' S arguments.
1t was especially noted that Senator
Borah met in debate this time such
nationally celebrated men as Root,
Beveridge and Lodge easily holding
his ground with ready replies and with
citations of authorities strongly sup
porting his contention that the wealth
of the nation under existing methods
of taxation escapes its just share of
the burden of expense of the govern
ment.
1t is said at the national capital that
Senator Borah far exceeded the bril-
liant Texan Senator Bailey, who
pened the income debate in presenting
the cause of the income tax propon-
ents.

SAYS ATTENDANCE AT
CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES
WAS Unprecedented

From Wednesdays Daily.
C. c. Patton returned home last
night from a six weeks visit in the
East. the greater part of which was
spent in Chicago and Pittsburg. He
was in the former city during the re-
cent series of base ball games between
the Pittsburg and Detroit teams to
decide the worlds championship and
says the enthusiasm was almost un-
paralleled in the history of American
athletics. The park where the con-
tetsts took place was not large enough
to accommodate all who desired to
see the games and many ardent fans
were unable to gain admittance to the
grounds. People came from all parts
of the country to shout for their IA
vorites, and one section of the huge
grand stand was occupied exclusively
by "rooters" from Detroit
Application for tickets to the park
had to be made through the mails
and at least a week before the games
were played.
At one OF the games $4,000 was
taken in at the gates and at least half
that much more could have been se-
cured had their been room inside the
fence for people to witness the game
Mr.. Patton also spent some time in
visiting relatives and friends at his
boyhood home in Ohio.

BILLY SUNDAY SAVES
SOULS BUT SMITH
FAILS AT FINISH

Denver, Oct. 20.-Members OF the
State Convention Of Baptists. which
is being held at Calvary church, yes
terday indorsed almost fully the work
and methods of Billy Sunday as an
evangelist, but were not SO favorable
in their remarks about Gypsy Smith.
In two prepared speeches Sunday
and in some informal discussions. the
pastors stated that Sunday undoubt-
edly did much good.
BILLY Sunday is above all men"
declared DR.. F. B. Palmer in his ad-
dress. HE has a message for the
church. He appeals to men that
Christ needs them, and above all he
impresses the point that the authority
of the Lord and not of the minister
or the evangelist should be recognized
by all Christians. He causes some
sensation. but he breaches from the
book and he goes the limit to con-
vert"
The Rev. G. w. Hatcher of Canon
City. elected to the presidency of the
association, told of the after effect
of some OF Sundays campaigns. He
said that although there were a large
majority of those converted by Sun
day who did not stick, that some of
them did. and that on the whole his
work was noble and good.
The Rev. Joshua Gavett told of the
methods and results obtained by the
preaching of Gipsy Smith. He de-
clared that never before was there
a preacher known who could come SO
near to the port without landing. He
has great power over men and can
convince them up to a certain point.
but beyond that he does not go. and
few are the real converts he ever has
made"
