DAVENPORT VETS
CONTEST ELECTION
Charge the Local Option Law Which
Dried the Town Is I'm
constitutional

DAVENPORT. Jan. 5.-An echo of
the recent local option election at
Davenport was heard yesterday when
c. S. Turner, w. j. Davis, Herman
Maskethine, w. w. Scott and Peter
Hanson, by their attorneys, Martin
& Wilson, filed petition and contest
of the election. The cost bond was
fixed at $500, with G.. H. Gilpin, a
prominent merchant, as surety.
Fourteen causes of contest are al
legged. 1t is set out that the local
option law is unconstitutional, in
that 1t tends to deprive one of his
property without due process of law;
tliat~i is class legislation; that it
makes the superior court the final
tribunal in local option matters,
whereas the state constitution consti-
tutes the supreme court final arbitra-
tor in all but specially exempted
cases; that the registration books
were closed too soon, and that the
notices of election were not legal.
Other Irregularities are alleged, sue
as intimidation of voters, illegal
methods employed by the officers of
election and illegal surroundings of
polling places. The outcome as to
the question of the constitutionalty
of the law will be awaited with much
interest by every citizen of the state.

BOB BROWN SELLS;
WILL LEAVE SPOKANE
MANAGE of the Indians Makes SO. 500
Expects to Manage Club at
Vancouver

SPOKANE, Jan. 4. = President
Joseph P. Cohn announced tonight
that he had bought the fourth inter
est of Robert p. Brown in the Spo-
kane ball club, paying him $4,000.
Brown was manager of the Indians
last year, and it is at his request that
he is released from his two years
contract.
There has been general satisfac-
tion at the result of Browns mana
cement, as the team finished a strong
second and for the first time in pro-
fessional history the club paid a di-
vididend of $4,000.
IT has been known that Brown has
bid for the Vancouver franchise and
it Is understood that he has now clos
ed with the owners and will manage
that team the coming year. When
Ducky Holmes came to Spokane last
fall Brown undertook to deal with
the Waterville people in Holmes in
terest. He got price of $4,000 on
the club with the understanding
that he could turn it over to Holmes.
This price included sole rights and
a lease on the grounds, which does
not expire until November l., 1910.
Brown wanted to own club in his
own name, but could not buy the
Spokane club, as President Cohn re-
fused to put price on it.
Il am sorry to see Brown go"
said Cohn last night, "but l believe
it is for the best interests of the
whole league. Brown had but little
when he came to Spokane, but has
made $500 this year in baseball !;
$4,000 salary, $4,000 dividends and
$4,000 for his stock, which was given
him for the legal sum of ST."
President Cohn will manage the
Indians and will delegate the field
management to one of the players
now on the list.

PRESIDENT
gets ROAST
CONGRESSMAN NC ADAIR HANDS
One TO TAFT.
Executive Extravaganza Is Keynote
of Criticism bV Indiana Democrat.
Enormous Allow anCeS for White
House Stables and Greenhouses
Should Ec naterially Reduced.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.--Had the
presidents daughter and son, Miss
Helen and Robert Taft, remained in
the house gallery few minutes long
er today they would have heard their
father roundly criticised by Repres-
entatiye Adair, of Indiana, for the al
legged extravaganza of the executive
department.
Mr.. Adair, who is Democrat, said
the presidents salary should not have
been increased to $4,000 year, adj
ding that president with practical
ly no expense, who could not save
from an income of $4,000 year a
sufficient sum to live in ease the
balance of his life, in my judgment
does not have sufficient business Ca
pacity to direct the affairs of this
great nation
Attacking the presidents allow
ance of $35, 900 for vehicles, stables,
ETC., Mr.. Adair argued that this was
100000 too much. He also asserted
that one-third of the $4,000 for the
care of the White House greenhouses
would furnish the president with
all the flowers he can prossibly use.
Without depriving the president of
any of the comforts or luXuries that
properly belong to the White House,
Mr.. Adair said the appropriations for
the executive department, $329,420
last year, could be reduced at least
$4,000 year.
Mr. Adair declared that apprO-
priations for all purposes could be
reduced at least $1OO,0OO,00O year
without impairing any part of the
government service.
Characterizing the government de-
tective service as the dumping
ground for those who had rendered
political service" Mr. Adair said that
outside of benefits derived from the
work Of the meat and pure food in
spectors, the $7,726,000 appropriat-
ed for that service last year had been
wasted.
'There is more extravaganza in the
army and navy than in any other
department Of the government" said
Mr.. Adair. st is enough to bank
rupt any government in the world to
spend $23S,132.699 each year for the
maintenance of it's army and navy,
and that, too, in time of peace"

SENATOR BAILEY ON
POLITICAL OUTLOOK
BELIEVES DEMOCRATS WILL CAR
RY THE HOUSE THIS FALL BY
A GOOD MAJORITY.

Washington, Aug. Ex-senator Bal
ley in an interview here today says;
Il am not able to speak with even
a fair degree of knowledge about the
political conditions throughout the
country, as | have spent the last two
months at home. where. of course,
there is not even the semblance of a
contest On my way here, however.
| met and talked with "A number OF
gentlemen of Illinois, Ohio, Indiana
and Kentucky, and they represented
almost every variety of political opin-
ions which they expressed fairly in
dicate the political drift in their states
1t is certain that We will carry the
congressional elections this fall by a
good majority.
Il do not share the apprehension of
those who fear that democratic ma
jority in the next house of represen-
tatives will impair the chances of
democratic success In the presidential
election in 1912 or course if we
should control the house and show an
incapacity to meet and discharge the
responsibility which must always rest
on majority, our success would be a
positive misfortune to us.
IF, however, we can not conduct
the business of the house, it would
be well enough for the country to be
advised of that fact before ii com
mits TO us the administration Of the
entire government. | do not myself
distrust the capacity Of the democratic
party to administer this government,
and | am more than willing to see
it subjected to partial trial in the
house OF representatives. If we re-
turn majority TO the next house, and
that majority behaves itself with judg-
ment and firmness, it will do much
70 dispel the fears of those who might
otherwise hesitate to vote us into
power and will become a source of
strength to us rather than of weak
ness.
Those doubling democrats who
read party disaster in our success
pay poor compliment to democratic
wisdom and democratic patriotism.
They ought Immediately to dismiss
their fears and to join with Their
brothers everywhere in an earnest ef-
fort to achieve a decisive victory"

Wheeler PRINTS
BERLIN LECTURES
Addresses Delivered by Head of
State University to Remove
MISUNDERSTANDING

BERKELEY. Oct. 21.-Doctor Wheel
er's Roosevelt lectures, delivered last
winter before the students and faculty
of the University of Berlin, have just
appeared on the campus Of the univer-
sity in book form, essentially. the
writer said, for students in a German
university, but also to contribute in
some measure to the removal of the
Misunderstanding between kindred
peoples.
The book, which is in German, is en-
titled Education and Democracy in
America and the lectures appear just
as they were written by Doctor Wheeler
in June and July of last year previous
TO his departure for Berlin
The motive of the lectures is to set
forth the development Of certain Ameri-
can institutions, pre-eminently the edu-
cational institutions; presenting them,
on the one hand, as expressive of the
spirit and purpose of our democracy.
and, on the other. as promotive of the
purposes of democracy through the pro-
vision of basis for popular govern
ment in formulated and enlightened
public opinion.
The first few lectures treat speci-
fically of public opinion. Then follow
IN succession chapters on the American
coliege, the shaping OF the college in
the period of 1900 to 1870. the reshaping
of the college in the period 1865 to 1909
and the college as 1t stands today-the
present day college
separate chapter is given to the
treatment of coeducationa1 colleges
Doctor Wheeler also deals with ques-
tions of administration and finance in
collegiate institutions and gives an in
teresting account of student affairs and
student life in America. The high
schools public schools and the element
ary schools are successfully described.
The final lectures in the volume are
accounts of the churches (the separa-
tion of church and state and the exist
ing religious conditions are both ex-
plained), the press and politics in
America.
