history of Seattle came to an end to-
day. Tomorrow the voters will choose

poration counsel and members of the

Miller, barber, as their mayoralty
candidate.
The question as to whether Seattle
shall be wide open" town or shall
continue to keep the lid closed is
regarded as the chief issue of the may
orally contest. In the primary cam
paign which led to his nomination on
the Republican ticket Gill went before
the people with the fiat declaration
for an open town, asserting that GER
tain restrictions which have been en-.
forced would be Immediately remov-
ed If he was elected mayor. His cam
paign for election has been clearly con-
Quoted along the lines of this issue.

bench for many years and was mem.
ber of the State senate for two terms

pleased the politicians and as a re-
suit he was defeated at the end of his

New York, March THE stockhold-
rs of the American Druggists Syn
icate met here today to consider
lays and means of fighting the new
.etail drug trust, which is trying to
obtain control of the retail drug trade
in the large cities of the East and OF
New England by establishing "chains"
of drugstores selling drugs and other
articles usually found in drug stores
at cut prices. The new trust, which
is said to be headed by officers of the
United Cigar Stores Company and
backed by Standard Oil capital, is also
branching out in the large western ci-
ties and the Independent retailers in
Chicago and other western cities are
about to organize with a view OF join
ing the cooperative American Drug
gists' Syndicate in it's fight against
the trust. The American Druggists
Syndicate is conducted by the retail
ers belonging to 1t themselves and
manufactures special brands of goods
for its members. One of the principal
objects of today's meeting is the con-
alteration of the proposition to in
crease the capital stock of the syndi-
cate sufficiently to enable it to buy a
controlling interets in the retail drug
stores of the large cities through
out the country. The syndicate pro
poses to have it's own wholesale agen,
cy in every city where it has mem
bers.

READY FOR REvoLu-
TioNlsTs' TRIAL

st. Petersburg, March Unusual
interest is manifested, throughout
Russia as well as in England and the
United States, in the trial of Nicholas
Vasiliecich Tschaikovsky and Ekat-
erian Constantinova Breshko-Breshko-
vskaya, which is to open her tomor-
row. The preparations are practical
ly completed and it is understood that
in Difference to the requests from Eng
land and America the trial will be
public. AS the court room is small,
admission tickets have been issued to
limited number.
Both defendants are charged with
being members of revolutionary organ
izations and with having taken part
in seditious agitation against the gov
ernment and with having conspired
against the life of certain government
officials. The government bases its
charges upon evidence the greater
part of which was supplied by rene
gade revolutionists who were acting
as spies for the Russian police while
they pretended to be in thorough SYM
pathy with the aims and objects Of the
revolutionists. Tschaikovsky, who will
! be represented by M. Maklakoff, one
of the most eloquent lawyers in Rus
sia, is said to be prepared to prove
an alibi in one of the most serious
counts of his indictment. Nine. Bresh-
kovskaya, who for many years has
been prominent member of the So
cial Revolutionary party, in which cir
Gle she is known by the friendly title
of Grandmother" was arrested at
Simbirsk on October s, 1907, and has
spent the years since then in the dis
NAL dungeons of the st. Peter and
Paul fortress. Prince Eristoff, law
year of great ability, will defend her,
but it is generally believed that his
task will be extremely difficult, as
there is said to be strong evidence
against his client.

AFTR DAVIS, WHO?

1t is suggested that, after Presi-
dent Taft drops lily Davis as his
mouthpiece to the people of Ohio,
when he wants to renounce any
thing or anybody he should address
his letters to Mark Slater. Mark is
in jail and cannot get away. He
would just have to take all such let,

hole and cannot get out of It any
more than President Taft can lift his
$50 pounds avoirdupois by his boot
straps.
All of which results from the at
tempt of the national administration
and the Republican bosses in Ohio
to use the Republican majority of
the legislature to hinder humiliate
and harass Governor Harmon-but
which is helping to make Governor
Harmon more popular with the
people every day.

WANT BOYCOTT vER-
DICT SET ASIDE

Hartford, Conn, March I'm the
United States circuit court today ar
guments were heard on a motion of
the United Hatters of North Ameri-
ca to set aside the verdict of $222,0O0
recently obtained against the organ
ization in the suit if ID. E. Loewe of
Danbury. 1t is understood that lead
ing labor organizations of America
have contributed to a fund to aid the
United Hatters in fighting the YER
dict and to carry the case to the SUI
preme Court of the United States if
necessary. If the verdict is upheld
by the highest tribunal it will be one
of the hardest blows ever dealt to or
ganized labor in this country as it
will prevent them in future from re-
sorting to the boycott as a means of
hgnung the so-called unfair" mer-
chants and manufacturers.
The suit against the United Hat
ters has been one of the longest ev-
er tried in a district court. 1t grew
out of the boycotting of the d. e.
Loewe company in 1902 by labor or
ganizations, especially the United
Hatters of North America, whose of.
ficers and members, originally to the
number of about $500, were made
parties defendant. 1t was begun six
years ago, considerable time being
taken up in disposing of various mo-
tions and in deciding whether juris
diction should be taken by the State
or Federal courts. Last fall the case
was ready to be tried out ON it's mer
and, as it progressed, it became evi
dent that the struggle was virtually
one between the labor organizations
and the Anti-Boycott Association
with able counsel on both sides. Ii
his charge to the jury Judge James P
Platt said that there was no doubt as
to the existence Of boycott, and aft
er this point was settled, there wa!
left the question as to the amount O
damages to be awarded. On Feb.
last the jury, after being out TIVE
hours, ordered actual damages of $74
900 to the plaintiff, but as the sui
was brought under the Sherman anti
trust law triple damages can be re
covered.

His Last Request.

Charles Dickens used to relate nm
anecdotc of the last moments of Faun-
tleroy. the great banker, hanged for
forgery In 1924, His elegant dinners
had always been followed by some re-
markable and matchless curacao, the
source of which he kept deep secret.
Three of his boon companions had an
interview with him in the condemned
cell the day before his execution. They
were about to retire when the most
impressive Of the three stepped back
and said: "Fauntleroy, you stand on
the verge Of the grave. Remember
the text, my dear man, that we
brought nothing into this world, and
It Is certain we can take nothing out
Have you any objection, therefore, to
tell me now, as friend, where you
got that curacaof"
