Economy was the burden of the pres
idential message. BY all means cut
down expenses, reduce salaries of en-
ployes, anything-but don't reduce the
tax on necessities manufactured by
trusts.

But President Taft did hit the nail
squarely when he said delays in law
procedure are responsible for much
lawlessness. If justice were prompter,
lynchings would be fewer.

President Taft wants the tariff let
strictly alone. One trial was enough
for him, he doesn't want to make it
worse again.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1909-12-08

Recommendations to let the tariff
alone and to carry out party pledges
seem rather contradictory. But Pres
ident Taft thinks the G. o. P is in
far enough now.

City Inspector Traps Driver
Delivering Oil in Cans With
False Bottoms.
DROVE OFF AT GALLOP.
Swindling Receptacle Turned
Over to Mayor Mcclellan,
Who Orders Investigation.

Inspector Lee ]. Mills, OF the Bureau
OF Weights and Measures, was making
a tour OF investigation IN the Eastern
District OF Brooklyn to-day, when he
happened upon small grocery store
where an oil wagon was delivering oil,
The vehicular tank belonged to an
agent OF the company. Mills noticed
that the driver was carrying in Ave
gallon cans and Il struck him that he
made rather light OF the burden,
handling the cans as II they had been
quart measures.
After learning from the storekeeper
Ions OF oil he asked the driver OF the
oil wagon to allow him to inspect one
OF the cans, The man refused and
Mills grabbed n can. lie had to fight
to get hold OF 1t, but he got 1t and took
It into the store.
Opening the can he found box like
contrivance of tin built UP from the
bottom that seemed to occupy about
hall the interior space OF the can.
Filling up the can with a measure the
inspector found that the "tive-gallon'
can contained only three gallons.
Having made sure OF his evidence Of
fraud. Mills went out to find the driver
OF the oil wagon. The man had driven
of at furious gallop and was abou.
four blocks away. The inspector got
his name. however. and the name OF his
employer, which he turned over to the
police. Just how much OF this fraud is
being practised the Bureau OF Weights
and Measures will make special efforts
10 ascertain Mills brought the freak
can to his office in the City Hall, where
Mayor Mcclellan saw 1t this morning
and Immediately ordered an investiga
ton.
Inspector Mills obtained q warrant to-
day for the arrest OF the man with whom
he tussled.

DROP CONTRACTORS?
Plans Also to Bring About a
Complete Reorganization of
the Snow Removal Service.

The scientific minds o. Columbia Col
lege are going 10 grappie with the clty's
snow ticket problem Professors OF the
School OF Mines are to-day working
out the problem and will submit a plan
OF snow tlcSe, distribution and check
Ing to Commissioner Edwards, which,
II Is hoped Will be unbeatable In a
day or two Commissioner Edwards Will
receive the outline OF the new idea and
he expects to have 1t in working order
BY the tine the next snow falls,
When he discovered how easily the
old tr!pl!tats system could be beaten
a. evidence by the recent arrests, he
called UP Columbia College and made
an appointment with several Of the pro-
fessors. He told them that he wanted
ticket plan that would put an absolute
check OF snow ticket gratters and in
vtted the professors to try their hand
At the new game.
They entered into the scheme heartily.
A number OF the advanced members
Of the scientific class have also been
asked 70 furnish suggestions, and now
a-day, there is nothing doing In the
class but snow ticket problems.
Plans Reorganization.
In addition to the new scheme to be
devised Commissioner Edwards will, he
declared to-day, reorganize the whole OF
the grating sixth district and hopes 10
adopt measures that Will effectually
stamp out the grating element there
The plan may be made to apply TO all
other snow districts In the city. He has
also asked the Corporation Counsel for
an opinion as to his legal right to drop
every one Of the present snow contrac-
tors and ask for bids from a new batch.
That opinion the Commissioner said to-
day Is an emergency one and he expects
that it will reach his office soon,
Il hope TO ascertain that | have the
right TO drop as many OF tho old bunch
OF contractors as I see Mt said the
Commissioner to-day. y am not at
all satisfied with several OF the con-
Germs tnat nave the contracting JOBS.
l want 70 get rid OF certain OF these
contractors. This does not apply to
all. for | have found several OF the
contractors TO be careful and willing
and always on the JOB.
II can easily spell out the dead ones
] want live ones. even II have 70 pay
little more money, and | intend to
have them.
Praises CharlesWorth.
II want to say that several Of the
newspaper reports OF the recent arrests
OF snow gratfers contained the name
Of Snow Inspector Charlesworth as hav.
ing been arrested or wanted. OF
subpoened. That is all wrong, Charles.
worth is not mixed IN in this matter OF
snow frauds In the least, How his name
got into the controversy cannot state
He Is all right and is abovehoard'
Seventeen hundred emergency men ir
addition TO the $50 regular uniformed
street sweepers are working on the
streets to-day removing snow. The
contractors are of the Job. The
emergency force and the regulars are
cleaning crossings and cutters an6
piling snow for removal.

The Chair of Torture.

The most prominent building in the ancient city of Nuremburg is the cas- tie One of its two towers was used for torture, the other served as 8 prison. The castle also contained a museum of horrors until it was pur- chased by the Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot, in whose possession these rel ics now lie. One of these was the chair of torture. It was very heavily made and studded over the seat and at the elbows with blunt topped spikes, To 1t the victim was tightly bound, and in short time discomfort began to manifest itself and in time became unbearable During it's continuance the torture was increased in several ways by means of wedges being pass ed between the legs and screws being applied to the thumbs until they be gan to bleed.

Spoiled His Taste.

X friend of mine" said a Montana man. .is defending a damage suit for being party to making a man take the liquor cure without his consent. This man had been on a protracted spree of several weeks. and his busi. ness was going to the dogs. My friend thought it would be kindly thipe to send him to a sanitarium for tre
 ment. He did so. and the man was given the cure for the whisky habit When he was discharged from the sanitarium the fixst thing he did was to go to saloon. He called for whis- ky. He tasted it. but did not fancy the flavor of it. He set his distaste of it down to the cure he had been given by my friends orders and imme- diately began suit for S5O.OOO dam ages. He says fn his complaint that he had highly cultivated and dis criminating taste for whisky. which had taken years to develop. and that
 was spoiled by the cure. do not know how my friend will come out. but he is not helping any more down and outs' without first obtaining their consent. ."-New York Journal

Rings as a Protection.

II used to be surprised" said clerk
 m a high class jeweiry establishment.
 when a woman whom I knew was uu~ married would come in and coolly SC. iect handsome solitaire dfa mond ring
 the sort usually sold for an engage menl ring, and then. quite as matter of course, buy plain gold band of the wedding ring variety. l couldn't un- derstand it at first. but now I've learned that many unmarried women think two such rings, woru when trav- cling, for instance, serve about the same purpose as a chaperon. l had a case the other day where mother came in with her unmarried daughter "a pretty girl hardly out of her teens and bought two such rings. From their conversation I learned that the girl was to take the trip to the Pacific coast unaccompanied. and the mother evidently thought if her daughter was protected by her rings she'd not be so apt to be criticised for being alone. Funny idea, but the women seem to think 1t works well."-New York Sun.
