Local Option Fight Continues

Superintendent L. R. Horton of the
State Apti-saloon League, reports that
the local option fight is being kept up in
the state of Washington. Elections will
be held in Spokane county outside the
CITY OF Spokane, in Okanogan county
and in several incorporated towns.
After June the league will be unable
to devote any time to assisting at local
option elections, as it will give it's entire
time to seeing that its candidates for the
legislature are elected. They propose to
ask the next legislature to strengthen
the law by making the county the unit,
instead of having the Incorporated towns
as separate units. They propose to see
that the liquor interests do not get men
into the legislature who might repeal
the law.
Medical Lake joined the list of dry
towns in Washington on Monday by a

His Response to Speech Of Eulogy At
Banquet.
William 81. Rideing tells in Nc
Clure's Magazine of a dinner of the
Papyrus club in Boston at which Hen
~ NJ. Stanley, the explorer, was the
guest Of honor:
Whether he Stanley sat or stood,
he 6dgeted and answered in monosyl-
lables-not because he was unamiable
or unappreciative, but because he-this
man Of iron, Gods instrument, whose
word In the field brooked no contradic-
ton or evasion. he who defied obsta-
cles and danger and pierced the heart
OF darkness-was bashful even in the
company Of fellow craftsmen
His embarrassment grew when aft
er dinner the chairman eulogized him
to the audience. He squirmed and
averted his face as cheer after cheer
confirmed the speakers rhetorical ebul-
Hence Of praise. Gentlemen, intro
duce to you Mr.. Stanley, who,' etc.
The hero stood up slowly, painfully,
reluctantly, and, with gesture of dep
recation, fumbled In first one and then
another Of his pockets without finding
what he sought
1T was supposed that he was look
Ing for his notes, and more applause
took the edge of the delay. His mouth
twitched without speech for another
awkward minute before. with more
erect bearing. he produced the object
OF his search and put 1t on his head.
1t was not paper. but rag Of cap,
and with that on he faced the COM
peny as one who by the act had done
all that could be expected Of him and
made further acknowledgment Of the
honors he had received superf1uous. 1t
was cap that Livingstone had worn
and that Livingstone had given him."

D. Kimple, $7480; Friedricks & Dittmer.
of Spokane, $3.50; Lee Gayman, $3.50 !;
F. R. Vanish, $10,87O. The lowest bid
carried with it no certified check as re-
quired by the call for bids, hence the
contract was awarded to the next lowest,
Friedricks & Dittmer, of Spokane. After
being awarded the contract. this firm
decided that it's bid was too low, claimed
it had omitted figuring on the plumb
ing and refused to do the work. Hence
the contract has now been given to Lee
Gayman, of Colyille. The county is now
assured of good job, Mr.. Gayman hav-
ing erected some of the best business
buildings of this city. Work will be
