BOARDS OF TRADE
GET 4 HARD
BUMP
(Times Special Service.)

OLYMPIA, March 5. The
bucket shop and the so-called
board of trade are both without
the pale of the law as soon as
the new criminal code goes into
effect. An attempt was made in
the house to make distinction
between these two gambling in
stitutions, but the house took the
stand that from an economic and
moral standpoint, they were both
on the same level.
The fight against the buoont
shop was started by so-called legi-
innate commission brokerage con-
Germs to eliminate competition.
But the plotters overdid it and
now 1t will be a misdemeanor for
both to do business.

HELPED
COAST
Big Appropriations Made
for the Pacific as a
Result of Agita-
tion.

BY SAMUEL M. EVANS.
(Member of United Press Staff. }
WASHINGTON, ID. c.,
March 5.-While the Japan
ese war; at Sacramento, CAL
ifornia, as it has come to be
called here, failed to secure
exclusion of Asiatics 1t served
to prevent a decrease in the
appropriations for coast de-
fenses, and, although no new
coast legislation of note was
passed at the session Just
closed, diplomatic circles to-
day regard the agitation as
the best thing that could have
happened for the entire
coast.
Not only did increase in coast
armament result from the agita-
ton, but full appropriations were
made by congress for Hawaii, and
the Philippine islands while the
estimates of the country suffered.
The war scare served to attract
increasing attention to the Pacific
coast and probably will result
soon in an exclusion law, and bet
ter regulation of immigration.
