RAILROAD MAN I
HAS VANISHED

George B. Monroe, railroad
man, who was stopping at the
Pedicord hotel last November, Is
much in demand, and the police
have two letters asking regarding
his whereabouts. One of the let
ters is from Mrs. G. B. Price, Lad.
ner, b. c., and the other from Ed
Parsons, a real estate agent of
Seattle, Wash.
According to both letters, which
were written almost at the same
date, Monroe came here looking
for work on a railroad, and intend
ed calling on family named Hal.
stad, recently arrived here from
South Dakota. He appears to have
written both parties a letter on
November 80 from the Pedicord
hotel, and has never been heard
from by either of the parties
since; neither did he call upon the
Halstad family. Parsons states in
his epistle that Monroe contem-
plated taking a job on the c. M.
& St. P. road. Nothing can be
learned of him here.

SICK OF JAP BILL

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Feb. IL
In view of yesterdays action in
the house, killing Johnson's anti
Japanese bill, it Is doubtful today
if the question will be mentioned
again this session. Most of the
members of the house are disgust
ed with the whole affair. 1t was
toto much work fighting for the
bills with Roosevelt, Gillette and
Speaker Stanton against them.
The senate refused point blank
to pull off it's scheduled debate on
recommendation of it's committee
that no anti-Japanese legislation
be enacted this session. Senator
and one or two others
were showing anxiety to open a
debate when Senator Miller called
President Porters attention to the
fact that there was nothing before
the senate to discuss. That ended
the talking.

CAN'T HOLD COUNTY.

The efforts of Alexander Hanson
to recover $4,000 damages or any
part thereof from Spokane county
for injuries received last June in
falling into an irrigation ditch dug
across a highway east of the city
by the Spokane Valley Land &
Water Co. has been defeated by a
motion to nonsuit interposed by
Deputy Prosecutor Donovan and
sustained by Judge Sullivan.
The court granted Hanson the
right to amend his complaint so as
to make the irrigation company the
sole defendant, and the case,
which has been on trial for two
days, terminated for the present.

amply able to take care of them"
The company at any rate is in a
position to rest easy.
That the matter of going ahead
with the work is in fact a sub
stantial club over the voters was
made clear by Mr.. Farley in talk
ing over the situation in an infor-
NAL manner. He stated that should
the voters turn down the bond is
sue the city could issue the bonds
on basis of one and half per
cent of the assessed valuation
without the action of the voters,
but this would place the city in a
somewhat precarious condition.
This would not leave much that
the city could draw on in an
emergency such as fire or an
earthquake. There would not be
enough of a balance left for the
council to issue emergency bonds.
Then, too, it might develop that
the city would want bonds for the
viaducts. This bridge fund is not
to be used for the viaducts."
The only other course open for
the council should the bond issue
fail to pass would be to issue war
rants on special bridge fund and
then raise the money by special
tax. This system would put the
cost of the structure on the tax
payers now in the city and pos
terity would have the bridge with.
out incumbrance.
