had gone very far In this perilOus posi-

ming speed. When almost q block had
been covered the horses turned toward
the sidewalk and Flint seeing that he
would undoubtedly be injured in his posi-
ton, dropped to the ground and the
wheels Of the wagon passed sqUarely over
his body. A short distance further the
wagon cOllided with a large tree and was
demolished. Mr.. Flint was badly bruised
about the head and legs. but nothing seri-
Gus resulted.

both places were forced To close at
once, and warned that further viola
tons would mean trouble.
Though a disposition has been shown

objected strenUOusly. In speaking of
such cases yesterday, Chief Barlow
said:

Friends Of Taft Make Shfewd
Move in Campaign Of 1912

WASHINGTON, July 31.-one
of the first things in administra-
tion learns is to keep a sharp look
out day and night not only upon
the movements in the opposing
Iparty, but In It's own party as well.
The price of second term is the
ability to first win denomination
and then defeat the opposition
candidate.
The board of strategy that is in
control of the Taft political des-
TIMES has just worked out a most
interesting move. In the first
place Ohio has shown an inclina-
ton to become doubtful state. Ii
has elected first a republican then
a democratic governor in alterna-
ton for the past four elections.
The present governor, Judson Har-
mon, is democrat. He has made
a fairly good governor and seems
to be a sort of compromise be-
tween a real progressive and a
stubborn conservative.
Harmon was attorney general in
Grover Cleveland's cabinet and he
knows national politics and big
men in every part of the union. He
will be candidate for reelection
as governor of Ohio in November,
1910, and If he should win, his
second term wo uld expire in the
mystic year 1912 = presidential
year.
If Harmon can twice carry Ohio
he will, without doubt, loom large
as a presidential possibility.
So the Taft scouts and strate-
gists would like to see Harmon
killed off by being defeated for
governor next year. Incidentally

COL. FERRY, TAC0MA's
BEST FRIEND, DEAD

1.-THE statuary which he gave to 1t

Colonel Ferry was born in FIT.
Wayne, Indiana. When 7 his par
ents died and he went to Indian
apolis under the care of an uncle.
At II he came west to San Fran
cisco by way of Panama and then
ON to Portland. Here he settled
and began work. Every dollar he
got he invested in real estate.
For II years he lived in Portland,
although he travelled to many 9TH
err sections In the Northwest. He
first came to Tacoma in 1868.
There was just one house in Old
Town then. He came to visit his
relatives, the family of General
McCarver, he being son-in-law.
Mr.. Ferry saw the possibilities
here and in 1873 came to Tacoma
to live. He became chief clerk
and cashier of the land department
of the N. P, which was just COM
ing here. Later he went to San
Francisco and to Portland again.
but always he looked with especial
favor on Tacoma.
He has considerable property
here and Joshua Peirce has repre-
sented his business while he has
been away.
Since 1886 when he went
around the world and was commits
sfoner from this territory to the
Paris exposition, he has travelled
much. studying history, art and
city building and he was con-
slant suggestor to the people OF

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. a.
Discovery that the first foster
mother of "Alice Minto," or "Wah
Ho," as the little Syrian girl found
recently in Chinese opium den, is
known, was Mrs. Alice Mimic of
Healdsburg, has today further
complicated the search for the
child's identity. Mrs. Mimic
adopted the child when she. was
nine months old and gave her own
name to the waif.
Mrs. Mimic, now Mrs. Richie

claim to the girl, and as the result
a bitter contest between the Chi

foster mother is promised. If

whack at that august body.
So then it is desired to defeat
Harmon in order to kill off a pres
idential candidate. To do this. of
course republican governor of
Ohio must be elected.
Who shall be the man?
Why MT Jas. r. Garfield?
The Taft strategists figure that
Garfield is one of the closest per-
sonal and political friends of
Roosevelt and that his candidacy
would have two important results.
First, II would insure the presence
of Bwana Tumbo in the Ohio state
campaign and the probable cleo
ton of Garfield. and
Second, it would be at least a
step to ward demolishing that hor-
rid specter of Roosevelt In 1912"
For it would go far to balm the
present hurts of the Roosevelt CO.
horts and tie the intrepid hunter
himself to the Taft chariot with
the strong bonds of gratitude.
The Roosevelt people and po IL
cies have been humping the
bumps pretty briskly fer about
five months, and the talk Of Ted
dy in 1912" has been growing
steadily stronger, so Roosevelt
must be reckoned with as con-
testant for the republican nomina-
ton Just as Harmon must be a pos
sible opp sing candidate.
So 1t is that the watchfires OF
the postmaster, ETC., are lighted
upon Ohio hills and boom Is
being quietly worked up for jim
my Garfield for governor In 1917.
Garfield himself has nothing to
say on the subject.

PUBLIC BENEF A CT o II
PASSES AWAY AT SAN DIEGO
SUDDENLY - BODY TO BE
BROUGHT HERE.

Colonel Clinton p. Ferry, aged
73, who named Tacoma, and who
was the best friend the city ever
had, died suddenly at San Diego,
California. Saturday, death being
the result of an attack of dilation
of the arteries. The body will be
brought here for burial.
Colonel Ferry was a practical
business man, connoisseur in art
and a student of history and sci
ence. He was one of the pioneers
of Tacoma. For 20 years he has
travelled all over the world writ
ing for magazines and always
using a Tacoma letterhead. Every
letter he wrote bore on the outside
a boost for Tacoma. So layal was
he that he became known over the
world as Tacoma" Ferry and
"The Duke of Tacoma"
1t was Colonel Ferry who gave
the city the Ferry museum. He
hoped to see 1t made the nucleus
for a great educational institu-
tion. He named the city from the
original Indian name of the beau
fiful mountain that stands guard
over It. He was the first to see
the possibilities here for a beauti-
full city. He gave the city parks,
street sidewalks and various pub
dc improvements. And always he
boosted and counselled every
movement that made for greater
and more beautiful Tacoma.
It was the worry of his life that
the people here were so slow in
taking advantage of their oppor-
tunities to make this wonderful
city. Only Last week he sent a
letter to the park board urging
that Ferry park be fixed up and
