GLASGOW FLASHED
PRESS ON CRATER

Sam Glasgow of the Centennial
mill last evening read in The Press
about a young man named Fred
Brokaw, who has been working
business men in the west for vari-
Gus sums on the plea that he Is a
son of J. w. Brokaw, well known
business man of the coast. The
young mans graft story is that he
had been given money to return
east by his father and had either
been robbed or had lost it. Mr..
Glasgow had already heard from
the young man, who was in Spo-
kane when the police received
warning of him. The alleged young
Brokaw had been inquiring fol
Moritz Thomson, president of the
Centennial. He came into the of
flee just after Mr.. Glasgow had fin.
ished reading the warning.
The young man was given the
article to read, whereat he waxed
indignant, called up The Press and
was coming right over to do things.
But he didn't come. and the police
heard nothing more of him. Mr..
Glasgow warned Mr. Thomson and
the fact that the young grafter's
record was printed here prevented
him from having the same luck he
has had in other cities.

TRUST MACNATES FOR
THE Pen SAYS BAILEY
10y United Press)

WASHINGTON, June 24.-De-
nouncing the doctrine Of free ad-
mission to the country Of raw ma
terial, Senator Bailey of Texas in
the senate today made a savage
attack upon the trusts, asserting
that the only means of destroying
them is to send thier organizers
and operators to the penitentiary.
"The doctrine Of free raw ma
terial Is unjust and undemocratic,"
said Bailey. Instead of being the
policy of the democratic party, it
was never accepted until 1885.
When the tariff is removed from
raw materials 1t becomes necessary
to increase the tariff on other ma
terials in order to raise revenue.
II the attorney general will pro-
coed to dissolve the United States
steel trust he will speedily bring
that monopoly to time.
Nothing would result to curb
the rapacity of that trust from
placing iron ore on the free list.
The only means of destroying the
trusts and preventing the forma-
ton of others Is to send the organ
izers and operators of them to the
penitentiary."

PEKING. June 24.-Through the
opium prohibition laws, just pro-
mulgated, the imperial government
has established governmental
precedent in making the common
people privileged class, which ex-

most radical democrats. Under the
the provisions of the imperial edict
officials of all classes become ann
able to prohibitory laws at once.
Any official found guilty of hitting
the pipe is subject to punishment
ranging from two years imprison-

tory laws do not become effective
against the coolie classe until three
years hence, which is the third

A bright light is turned on the
present conditions governing the
special session of congress, called
to revise the tariff, in a recent let
ter from Congressman Poindexter.
The Press has maintained, since
the program outlined by Aldrich
and others of his kind became APP
parent, that the revision deter
mined upon by party leaders is
not what the people have demand
ed; that it is an increase of the
cost of necessities of life instead of
decrease, and that in this course
both parties, in so far as they are
supporting the program, are break
ing faith with the country and
Taft's promises in his campaign
speeches.

Spokane has been the last large

now nearly every officer on the
force is carefully studying the law
to see just where they stand In

lief among the cigar dealers and
cigaret smokers especially, that the
law on cigarets is unconstitutional.
