BETTING OF ALL KINDS
is TO BE PROHIBITED

Don't bet anyone a million dollars
that you can lick him for if you do
you will be "pinched." Such is the in
tent of an ordinance reported by the
city attorney yesterday and sent TO the
legislation committee for further con-
sideration This ordinance makes it
unlawful for anyone to bet on the re-
suit of any contest of skill, speed or
endurance of man or beast.
1t is really intended to prohibit that
form of gambling known as "oraP'
betting and which is perfectly legal
now and will be until the council
adopts the ordinance. Its passage was
asked by Guy Eddie, prosecuting at
torney who said that betting on ball
games had become such a nuisance
that complaints were made to his office
daily.

WANTS STREET RAIL WAY
FRANCHISE FOR TUNNEL

The Highland Park Protective league
wants a street railway through the
Broadway tunnel and yesterday petit
toned the council to grant such a
franchise. The matter was referred
to the board of public utilities.
The petitioners say that should the
tunnel be used by those street car
lines running north of Sunset boule-
ward ten or twenty minutes would be
cut off the running time and the con-
gestion on Main street, which is a
serious traffic problem during the rush
hours, would be reduced.

INCOMPATIBILITY INDUCES
WIFE TO SUE FOR DIVORCE

Judge Hutton Of the superior court
yesterday heard part of the suit of
Sarah c. Hyams against Harry d.
Hyams for divorce on the charge Of
cruelty.
From the evidence it seems to be
as much incompaubility as anything
else, most of the trouble being caused
by the inability Of the children of both
husband and wife by former marriages
to adjust themselves to their new re-
lations. The case viii be resumed
today.
DEGREES were granted to Hattie NJ
Wilson from Percy e. Wilson, Blanche
M. Hitchcock from George Hitchcock,
Marian Groszewsh from Tresa Gros-
zewski, Prudy WoOlsey from H. M.

ALLOW BILL OF S. P. FOR
BUILDING SPUR TRACK

A demand for $110, 371.22 in favor Of
the Southern Pacific was approved by
the board Of public works yesterday
and sent on it's way through the regu-
lar process of red tape for payment.
This demand is for the construction
of a spur track from Red Rock canyon
to Dove Springs, on the line of the
aqueduct. The contract for the work
was entered into September II, 1908,
and the amount involved represents the
cost of labor and materials with a
small margin added for profit. The bill
for the work is carefully itemized and
covers a number of pages of closely
typewriter legal cap.

Mrs. Alma hammers Of Downey

was given by Judge Mccormick of the
superior court, who has had the case
under advisement for several days.

COUNCIL CONFINES LUNCH
CARTS TO FIXED SECTION

Lunch wagons that gather on the
streets after dark will have to find
other places, for the council yesterday
fixed a district into which these lunch
wagons may not come. This district
extends from Temple street to Ninth,
from $50 feet west of Hill street to
$50 feet east of Main and all the cross
streets in between. 1t also reaches out
on Fifth street from Main to San
Pedro.
Councilman Whiffen made an effort
to have them put off the streets alto
gether but most of the councilman con-
sidered that as long as the city was
accepting license fees from the own
ers of these wagons they should be
given some place to stand.

Howard claims that he has on de-

Those Ne,U Plaid
Silks Are Here

In all their beauty, in the Scotch high
land colorings; also pastel and satin bar
effects.
If you want the correct silk for fall waists,
you must at least include one or more of plaid.
And they are so economically priced in the
26-inch width at $1.25 yard.
p S.-Snce we placed the order for these
plaid silks the market has advanced 10 per
cent; therefore in pricing these at $1.25 they are
ur.der value. This is also indication of how
strong plads to be for the fall season.

The Democratic state central COM
mittee last week nominated James
Gray for governor after John Lind had
refused to make the race. Mr. Gray
was mayor Of Minneapolis for one
term several years ago, but was de-
feated for the second term by the
notorious DR.. Ames. He is clean and
will make an aggressive campaign, and
while he can probably put enough life
into the campaign to make it interest
ing, yet that is about all that is ex-
pected. There is not at the present
time any apparent disposition among
the Republicans to prefer him to
Eberhart.

method by which it was made. In
the tariff commission he saw the scien-
tifc means of tariff making, since it
would tend to bring about the adopt
ion of one schedule at time and thus
prevent the dickering between the in
terests, the bargaining between groups
that have always been the bane OF
American tariff making. And while
Mr.. Taft apologized for and defended
the Payne-Aldrich bill, his chief
reason for signing it was that it held
within itself-in the tariff commission
provision-the means of it's own re-
generation. Minneapolis Journal.
Morris tribune., 1910-09-23

We are especially fortunate in this
legislative district that all of the can
didates at the Republican primaries
were pledged to vote for county
opion bill, for we have thus escaped a
contest which is at the best very I'M
pleasant. We have had occasion to
notice our exchanges from districts
where there has been strong contest
on this question, and it was easy to
see that the two factions became very
bitter towards each other way out of
proportion to the Importance of the
question. There is one candidate at the
election who is not pledged to county
option, but his candidacy is not of
enough Importance to involve the dis
trict in fight over this question.
Morris tribune., 1910-09-23

One of the best things in the ad-
dress which Governor Eberhart made
at the conservation congress last week
was in calling attention to the great
waste produced in this state by poor
roads. He said: "In marketing pro-
duce, distributing material, fertilizer
and machinery, the farmers of Mime
sofa haul annually approximately
100000 wagon loads. Averaging
the cost of each load over mostly un-
improved roads at 81. SO, the cost of
highway transportation in the state ag
gregates $3O,OOO,OOO. Most experts
claim that uniformly good roads would
reduce this cost one-half, but conced-
ing for the sake of argument that the
reduction would be only third, the
net saving to the farmers of the state
in one year would be $40, ,OOO,O0O
However, this is not the most import
ant result. The building of good
roads would build up farm intercom-
munication and promote the consolida-
tion Of rural school districts by max
ing it possible to carry pupils at all
seasons of the year some distance over
country roads to the school at the min
imum cost. -

LOSES At PRIMARIES
Congressman BOUteII Defeated
by a Progressive.

Chicago, Sept. 17.-Progressives
were victorious in three out of the
twenty-five congressional districts of
Illinois in the primary election.
Henry S. Boutell, standpatter Re-
publican, who has represented the
Ninth, a Chicago district, in congress
for twelve years, was defeated by
Frederick H. Gansbergen, who con
Quoted his campaign on an out-and-out
progressive platform. Gansbergen
was supported by the regular Repub-
lican organization.
George Edmund Foss, standpatter
and head of the naval affairs commit
tee of the house, won the Republican
nomination in the Tenth district by
about 500 votes after hard contest in
which he was opposed by George P.
Englehard and Frederick G. De Lang,
prOgressives.
Speaker Joseph G. Cannon was re-
nominated in the Eighteenth district
by a majority close to 5000. He was
opposed by Henry B. Downs, a pro-
gressive of his own city.
Lee O'Neil Browne, the minority
leader in the lower house of the Illi-
nois legislature, who was recently ac-
quilted of charge of bribery in con-
nection with the election of United
States Senator William Lorimer, was
renominated for representative in La
Sale county by large majority.

ROOSEVELT AND TAFT.

In defending himself against the
criticism launched at him by the Old
Guardsmen in New York for criticizing
the Supreme Court of the United
States, Colonel Roosevelt cites among
other examples of statesmen who have
done the same thing that of Mr.. Taft,
when he was Circuit Judge fifteen
years ago. The interesting thing
about the citation, however, is that in
it Colonel Roosevelt makes for himself
an opportunity to say some appreci-
ative things about Mr.. Taft's record
as President. Here is paragraph in
the Roosevelt speech:
The President of the United States,
Mr.. Taft, has served his country hon
orably and uprightly in many posi-
tions-as Judge, as Governor of the
Philippines, as Secretary of War, and
IIO" cIO 1COlSCIIG- W IlIIu dIlu GIIS
Congress acting with him we owe the
creation of a tariff commission; the
adoption of maximum and minimum
tariff law treaties with foreign pow
ers; the proper treatment of the Philip
pines under the tariff; the increase in
the efficiency in interstate commerce
law; the beginning of national legis-
lative program providing for the exer-
else of the taxing power in connection
with corporations doing an interstate
business; a postal savings bank bill;
the constitution of a commission to
report remedy for overcapitalization
in connection with the issue of stocks
and bonds.
1t would scarcely be possible to
compress in one short paragraph so
varied and useful a record of achieve
ments within so short a portion of a
Presidential term. The fact that
Colonel Roosevelt takes occasion thus
to sum up the Taft record, and with
such evidences of his own personal ap-
proval, goes far to confirm what we
have hitherto pointed out, namely,
that Taft and Roosevelt stand for the
same things, though they may differ
about the best methods of securing
them.
1t has already been noted by a cap
tious and radical newspaper that there
is in this paragraph no approval of
the Payne-AIdrich tariff as if the
omission were reflection on Mr..
Taft. On the contrary, Mr.. Taft,
while maintaining that the bill was
the best tariff act yet passed, freely
admitted that it had grave faults and
far from satisfactory. And he unerr-
ingly put his finger on its chief weak
ness-which has been the weakness of
all it's predecessors-th bargaining

Sam Gordon recently made speech
in Minneapolis, and it is asserted that
some of the things that he said did
not suit the big guns of the Republican
state machine very we'll. We doubt
whether the following extract could
really be as offensive as it is said to
have been, and when it was uttered it
was simply the expression of an hon
est man frankly stating his position.
This frankness in Mr.. Gordon is what
makes him the most popular man on
the Republican ticket today. He
said: "a political party is, in my
opinion, just what its membership
body premits it to be. Left entirely
to aspiring, self-benefting politicians
and individuals, representing interests,
seeking special privileges to the
detriment of the great mass of people,
any political party will become cor
rupt and unworthy of trust. Men
through scheming and intrigue get
elected to the house and senate not
for the purpose of favoring legislation
favorable to the whole people but for
the purpose of suppressing and de-
feating such legislation. If l am
elected to preside over the session of
the next state Senate l will use my
influence in the appointment of COM
mittees and in other ways to the end
that bills of merit accepting we'll de-
fined issues, such as counhty option,
reapportionment, amendment for low
tax and other similar measures will
not be suppressed in committees, but
will be reported back without unneces-
sary delay"

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1910.

Now as election time approaches it
will be we'll for candidates and their
friends to restrain themselves in the
circulation of the customary stories
regarding the opposing candidate. This
is one of the unpleasant features of
running for office and one Of the
things that deprives the public of the
services of some of it's best men. AS
a general thing we know these men
we'll and respect them as good
neighbors and good citizens, but at
election time we will listen to almost
any kind of stories which are clearly
false. Of course election stories
are so usually discredited that they
have little effect in determining the
results of the election, and so their
principle effect it to add an unpleasant
feature to the contest. Here in
Stevens county we will soon be in the
midst of contest for county offices
and the characters of the several can
didates are such that there will be no
occasion for circulating the customary
derogatory stories and we trust it
will not be done.

Congressman Tawney was defeated
at the primaries in the first district
on Tuesday. 1t appears that the
people of the district were more will
ing to believe Pinchot and the other
Progressives than they were Tawney,
and the young man who was selected
as the Republican nominee in that dis
trict owes his success to the prevalent
progressive sentiments rather than to
his own qualifications for the place.
Of course, things have now been nice
ly arranged for the Democrats, and
the Democratic nominee will undoubt-
edly secure the election as the result
of Republican dissension, as was done
four years ago in the second district.
