to by Guy Eddie, prosecuting attorney
Of Los Angeles. asserting that District
Attorney John ID. Fredericks prevented
the prosecution of n certain county Of
fIcial for renting property owned by him
for immoral purposes, although the case
was a clear one.
As opposed to this conduct involving

MIR. Eddie's affidavit further stated
that two of tho Harper police commits

to induce tho prosecuting attorney to

that this was taken out Of his hands by

HOT SURINGS, Ark, Oct. 10.-Theo-
| dore Roosevelt placed himself on rec
ord here today as opposed to the view
expressed by President Taft of one
phase of the work of the conserving
and developing of the resources of the
| country.
| Col. Roosevelt declared the govern
ment should do all it legitimately
could to assist in the reclamation of
the great swamp areas of the Mssis-
| sppi valley.
In a speech at the National Conser-
walton congress at ST. Paul, September
| 26, President Taft said he believed the
work should be done by the states
| themselves.
| AS soon as Col. Roosevelt reached
Hot Springs today, Governor Dona-
ghey and several others interested in
obtaining help from the government
for the reclamation project, asked him
to touch on the subject in his address
at the Arkansas state fair.
Col. Roosevelt promised to do so.
In his speech he said:
Arkansas is one of group Of states
| with an enormous area of swamp land.
Until drained, the land is worthless;
and when drained it is a block of the
most fertile land in the entire ma
| tion.
1.-THE national government must do
its part in helping in the drainage, be-
cause the drainage is an interstate
| affair.
SHOULD WORK TOGETHER
Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Lou-
| isiana and Mississippi are all concerned
and ought to work together and the
national government should render all
possible legitimate aid"
In his st. Paul speech President Taft
expressed view directly opposite. His
words were as follows.
Suggestions have been made that the
United States ought to aid in the drain
age of swamp lands belonging to the
state or private owners, because if it
is drained it would be exceedingly valu-
able for agriculture and contribute to
the general welfare by extending the
area of cultivation. 1 deprecate the
agitation in favor of inviting the gen.
eral government into contribution from
it's treasury toward enterprises that
should be conducted either by private
capital or at the instance of the state.
In these days there is a plan Of look
ing to the federal government for too
much"

FLAMES SWEEPING ONWARD
Thousands in Danger and Many
Flee with Wild Beasts
Seeking Safety
(Associsted Press)

WINNIPEG, Man, Oct. 10.-The
latest reports from the fires in the
Rainy River region of Minnesota to-
night increased the horrors OF the
situation.
Estimates of the number Of persons
killed range from rs to 400. Many con-
servative men place the number at
more than 100. But the great concern
for the present is the rescue of the
helpless and the thousands of home
less men, women and children.
Stories Of wild animals fleeing for
safety side by side with human beings;
Of mothers burned to death with ba-
bies on their breasts, and of men cre-
mated while shielding their children
were brought in today.
The Duluth express brought many
refugees from the scene of the con-
flagration. The engineer of the train
said:
IF the fire keeps on the way 1t Is
going there will be nightly little left
of the population of that part Of Min
nesota.
For miles around Baudette and
Spooner, Wis, where there were large
tracts of bush. are now swept clean.

part of the country for such a long

TIMBER MILLS AFLANTE
"From my engine it appeared that
every timber mill in the country had
been burned, except that of the Shev-
lin Mattieu company.
1--WE stopped every little while to
take on people, but most of them got
off just outside the danger zone, so
they could go back to what was left
of their homes after the Are died
down"
One of the most thrilling narratives
is given by Mrs. Townsend of War
| Road, a refugee on the Duluth train.
| She said:
1.-TWO trainloads of people left War
Road last night after midnight, but
we do not know whether they reached
place Of safety. The town of Bau-
dette is wholly deserted.
Everyone in War Road who had
revolver is carrying it. The survivors
are desperate and i great deal of van
dalism is abroad. Men are robbing
women of their jewels.
TOWNS IN DANGER
"If a high wind arose, nothing could
save the town of War Road, When
we passed through Sprague, Manitoba,
we saw the fire had run right up to
the Canadian Northern station"
l.. e. Foster of Boston, Mass, came
through on the Duluth special
"If the wind drops, Rainy River will
be saved, but otherwise the town is In
great DANGER" he said.
Other refugees tell how wild animals
raced wildly about the edge of the fire
and then turned and plunged into
Rainy river and swan across to safety.
There were hundreds of deer, caribou
and moose. Cattle fearlessly lay down
with the bears, wildcats and timber
wolves.
oscar Johnson, his wife and three
children stood five hours in the Bau-
dette river, ducking their heads when
the heat became too intense. They
say the water in the river was heated
to an uncomfortable temperature.
When they escaped, it was as through
a furnace of dying Goals.

Heroic Rescuers Driven Back by
Poisonous Gases in the
Long Tunnels
FIFTY-TWO THOUGHT DEAD
Fans Found Destroyed by ExpIo-
Sion-FrantiC Relatives
Surround Pits Mouth
Associated Press1

STARKVILLE, Colo, Oct. 10.-As
darkness settled tonight over the en-
trance to the Starkville mine the hope
that had buoyed up the watchers at
the pit mouth grew faint, and gloom
and encouragement settled again over
the silent crowd.
This morning the expert miners at
the head of the rescue parties were
confident that some of the ffty-two
men walled in by the explosion were
alive and might be rescued. They be-
lieved the portable fan forcing pure
air into the workings would keep the
men in the extreme southern portion
of the mine alive until they could be
reached, but as the day rescue party
stumbled slowly out of the stope to-
night one glance at their weary, dust
grimed faces told the watchers that
hope was almost gone.
After arduous work in the face of
constant peril the rescue party had
penetrated the mine nearly $1,000 feet,
or within 900 feet of the men i'm
prisoned nearest the main entrance.
At this point the workings were found
badly wrecked and poisonous air was
present in quantities The leaders
would not consent to the rescuers go
ing farther until sufficient fresh air
was famed in to insure safety.
Ten thousand feet from the entrance
the place where a fan had been ope-
rated before the explosion was badly
damaged. The 1200-pound motor had
been thrown fifty feet. The rescue party
was compelled to stop here and make
repairs. A dog which had accompanied
the party wandered ahead. 1t was
found later stretched on the floor over

The rescue party took a southerly
course toward the spot where the pick
men were supposed to have been work.
ing Saturday night. Recommending
parties of two or three men were sent
ahead to test the air. These reported
afterdamp was noticeable in all the
short cuts and also in the main stope.
General Manager Weitzel was in
formed by portable telephone of the
conditions. He ordered the men out
of the mine until the air could be i'm
proved.
While the night shift was waiting to
be sent inside the mine q gang was
also put to work installing a blower at
the mouth of the air shaft which runs
parallel with the main stope. This is
an emergency measure to prevent the
sudden stoppage of air supply by the
failure of the portable fan.
Several times today the fan stopped
working. Signal lights flashed the
danger and men scattered in all direc-
tions, summoning electricians to cor
rect the trouble. This was one of the
dangers that threatened the rescue
men throughout the day.
All day long the hills facing the
mine were dotted with groups of wo-
men and children, relatives and friends

Prominent Residents of Los An

Work Against Suffrage
ADDRESS BY MISS BRONSON
Sixty Members Agree That Pres
ent Conditions Permit Suffi-
Cient Activity in Politics

Opposition of prominent society
women to woman suffrage was ac-
lively voiced yesterday afternoon
when q group of them met and organ
lied the Southern California Associa-
tion Opposed to the Ballot for Women
The president of this new associa-
ton Is Mrs. George A. Caswell, pres
ident Of the Marlborouh School for
Girls, and the members appointed on
an executive board to further the
cause of the organization are Mrs.
Henry L. Lee, Mrs. Randolph Miner.
Mrs, Matthew Allen, Mrs. Robert
Poindexter, Mrs. ]. N. Van Nuys. Mrs
Edna Foy Nehar, Mrs. Steven c. Hub
bell and Mrs. George Patton.
ARGUMENT AGAINST SUFFRAGE
Miss Minnie Bronson, M. A, for
merly of the University of Iowa, was
at the meeting, and presented the ar
guments for and against suffrage.
Miss Bronson is a woman of wide ed
lrcation and experience, having repre-
sented the United States government
for ten years at the Paris, Belgium,
st. Louis, Buffalo and jamestown ex-
positions in investigating educational
methods as presented there.
In her speech Miss Bronson quoted
the remark of the working girl VINO
was told that If women had the ballot
it would improve the wages and gen
eral condition of the working women.
The girl replied that Mr.. Gompers SAID
that there were now five million work
ing men unemployed in the United
States, and they all had the privilege
of suffrage.
Other phases treated by Miss Bron-
son were that of taxation without
representation, a cry which she said
the more advanced of the suffragists
were now ceasing to argue. She said
that women would not prove purify
ing element in politics.
Mrs Caswell, the newly elected
president, does not favor the vote for
women, but believes that If it Is to
prove of any benefit all suffrage priv
ileges should be heavily restricted
both by educational and property
rights.
According to present arrangements
the vote of every intelligent and edu-
Gated woman would be nullif1ed by
that of perhaps fifty women who were
neither educated nor decent" she said.
PRESENT POWER OF WOMEN
The spirit of the meeting, which was
attended by about sixty women, was
that women now have more power,
when without suspicion of political
intrigue, than they would have with
the ballot. They are able to help ed
ucational and charitable affairs, and
would have the same influence in civic
and governmental matters if they gave
the attention to it that they are now
giving to securing the ballot for
themselves.
Believing that present developments
of the situation demand action, these
women are circulating protests against
granting the right of suffrage to wom-
