URGE MAYOR PRATT
TO VETO ORDINANCE

At meeting of the Peoples
Terminal Rate committee, held to-
day noon at Davenport's, it was re-
solved to go ahead with the effort
to secure a petition submitting the
franchises of the Milwaukee, the
North Coast and the union terminal
station to referendum vote of the
people.
A committee was also appointed
to call on Mayor Pratt and urge
that he veto the ordinance.
Attorney H. NJ. Stephens, who
has been advising the committee.
has not given an opinion on the
legality of the referendum vote in
it's relation to a railway franchise,
but at the meeting he told the COM
mittee that if it had made the
promise to go ahead with a refer
endum election it had better do it.

This 81 the story of honest,

This 81 the story of homesick

1t goes to show that a pile of gold
doesn't make much difference. Ed
win Gould Jr., aged II, grandson of
Jay Gould, who now has an income
all his own of 500 a week and who
will have $4,000 per week or $500
per day, was going to school at
Pomfert. N. J. 1t was a swell pri-
vate school, and the boy had the
best money could buy.
But he was homesick.
He wanted to see his mother,
and his grandmother and his father.
He was lonesome and blue, and so
he wrote his father for permission
to visit at home over Saturday, Sun
day and Decoration day.
He didn't get any answer to his
letter. He didn't get any letter from
his mother; nor his grandmother.
So he ran away from school and
started to walk to New York. He
had to walk, his allowance was all
spent and he was broke
He didn't shave; it's better to
have hair on your face than gnaw
in your stomach-and he only had
70 cents.
He threw his collar away because
no collar is better than a dirty one.
What's the use of a necktie with

necktie.
What's the use of being stuck up

moment you'll have to ask some
body to give you something to eat?

PORTLAND, June 17.-Work on
a number of steel buildings in
course of construction was prac-
tically suspended today owing to
the action of members of the dray-
mems association in calling in most
of their wagons on account of the
teamsters' strike.
When the wagons were taken off
the streets it was announced that
the action was taken because the
city would not furnish police pro-
lection to non-union drivers"
This is looked upon here as a
mere pretext. as Mayor Simon has
offered police protection to any
man who wants to work.
President Banfield of the employ
ers' association admitted today that
200 strikebreakers have been en-
listed. He asserted that they will
b imported soon to take the places
of the striking teamsters. Accord
ing to Banfield, a small number
will be imported at a time.
Indication are that the fight will
be long and bitter.

Hard luck hit the Holland aero- plane again Sunday and it will now be out of the question to attempt a flight for week or more. Saturday afternoon when a flight was attempt ed the drain pipe of the radiator was not opened and the solder on the top melted off, allowing steam to escape. \ second attempt was to be made yesterday, but in hauling the aeroplane to the sand bar where the attempt was to be made, a collision with bridge took place, crashing the front planes of the machine. It will take several days to repair these and then Manager Shea will make anoth- CT attempt at a public exhibition. He has never lost faith in the craft, for he has seen it rise several feet from the ground, which proves it is built right and under favorable conditions will fly like the Curtis and other machines.
