swept everything before him. HE

Bernie Wefers. Trube acquired the
knack of running on board tracks.
but even after defeating the flow
ers of the eastern athletes in the
Boston games, there was no inkling
of his possibilities.
Wefers nursed his charge for the
Martinique, and although he
showed wonderful speed in prac-
tice. the fact that he was running
inside record time did not become
known. Hence the surprise when
he broke the indoor record.

PETITIONS LEFT
WITH UNIONS
MAN SELECTED TO CIRCULATE
REFERENDUM REQUEST HAS
CITY JOB, AND MAlONEY IS
TOO BUSY.

1t is up to each labor union in
the city to get its members to sign
the petition for the initiative and
referendum charter amendment In
order to secure the endorsement
of sufficient number of the voters
before the next city election. This
is the announcement made today
by Thomas Maloney, chairman of
the legislative committee of the
Spokane Central Labor union.
Mr.. Feeney, elected at the last
meeting of the Central Labor cOun-
Gil to take full charge of the circu-
lation of the petitions, has been
given job with the city as sewer
inspector and has not sufficient
time to take up the matters en-
trusted to him. Mr.. Maloney is
buried in other work, and states he
has come to the conclusion that
the best way to overcome the diff
Guilty is to have a petition circu-
lated among the members of each
union in the city and to pick up
all the outside names possible.
About 1900 voters must have
signed this petition before the
registration books are closed, else
the amendment to the city charter
will be lost. Mr.. Maloney stated
today that he believed that if each
union would take hold of the cir.
culation of the petitions in earnest
their object can easily be realized.

DENVER, Col, Feb. 24.-The
ghost of an ancient jag has walked
forth from a constitutional grave tc
menace the local option law in the
state of Colorado.
Some 43 years ago this winter q
convivial lawmaker, winding up the
end of the week in a round OF
drinks, was doped in a Denver dive
Therefore the people of Denver
have no right to say whether or moi
they shall neighbor with a saloon
Clear logic and no mistake
Yet this Is the plea of the great
constitutional lawyer. John M
Waldron, who has elaborated to the
extent of 20 pages on why the re-
suits of that doping incident
should, forever, bar the people OF
Colorado from voting saloons out
He has passed along the results OF
his deep reflections to the supreme
court, the members of which are
still listening to the echoes of their
own campaign cries of Let the
people rule
WaldrOn has been employed by
the liquor dealers to show the SUI.
preme court why the local option
law should be declared a vicious
attack on the rights of citizens.
His latest brief argues that the
legislature, or through its laws
the people are forever barred from
voting out saloons.
Back in the days when the fran
ers of the state constitution were
debating over what bricks to place
in the "bulwarks of liberty there
was one member of decidedly con
vivial habits. He was afraid to &C
home in the dark" and during the
convention wandered out into dis
tricts where even then the unwary
were unsafe.
On one trip someone mixed some
knockout drops" in his whisky
The result was he awakened the
next day with alb ad headache and
no money. He saw a great light
One of the peoples rights was tc
have pure whisky. AS sop to his
desires for revenge there was in
serted the following: THE general
assembly shall enact laws forbid
ding the importation to the state
or the manufacture or sale within
the state, of any impure or adul
terated liquors."
1t is upon this provision that
Waldron rests his hope of knocking
out the local option. For, argues
the deft Mr.. Waldron, if the con
stitution directs the prohibition OF
the sale of impure liquor, does il
not mean that there shall be nc
prohibition Of pure liquor? He
finds 100 pages of argument tc
back up this clever bit of Valid
ronic argument.
The brief, which has just beer
filed, is the latest discovery as tC
why the people should not be
trusted to manage their own af
fairs. Lawyers are looking at Il
with no little curiosity. Some won
der whether the supreme court will
be able to follow the acute reason
ing of Waldron in tracing the great
danger to publis rights, should the
people of 1909 be allowed to vote
against the sale of liquors, because
