COUNCIL TAKES
DIFFERENT VIEW
CHALLENGE SINCERITY OF
MAYORS OFFICE IN EN-
PLOYMENT FIGHT.

On showing by Attorney Alex
M. Winston for the employment
agencies, that the mayors office
had misrepresented his clients, the
city council last night voted to re-
new the labor agency licenses of
Carr & Hill, A. NJ Macho and the
inavian-American.
Mayor Pratt had requested that
these licenses be denied, but after
making the request approved the
bond submitted by them.
The city council has taken a diff
ferent view of the employment mat
ter from that given out at the may
or's office. The charge was made
by the employment men that the
fight against them was solely for
the sake of making political capital,
and members of the council seemed
to cincide in this view.
Councilmen Nelson, Funk and
Cartwright, who had in the license
committee voted to not grant the
renewal of the licenses, last night
voted with the other members of
the council in favor of. the employ
ment men.

CHALLENGE OPPONENTS OF
HER HOME TO PRODUCE
EVIDENCE AGAINST
WOMAN.

A committee of Hillyard and
Lidgerwood ladies who have form
ed themselves into an auxiliary to
aid the Orphans Home of Spokane
are very indignant today over the
attack made on the tag day for the
home by Rev. G. w. Fuller. They
charge that the attack of Rev.
Fuller was inspired by people who
have combatted the home from the
beginning and are now exercised
because there is a prospect of a
few dollars being raised by the
ladies for the benefit of the or
phans at their tag day next Mon
day.
I'VE know where the attack has
come FROM" said chairman of a
committee from the. ladies this
morning. at is inspired by the
Associated Charities, which wants
to control all relief work in the
city, and the Children's Home man.
agement, which aspires to mo-
nopoly of the orphans home bust
ness. They have continually COM
batted the work done by Mrs. Dey
without giving reason for their op-
position. They say that they are
prepared to take care of the or
phans, yet will not receive children
beyond a certain number unless
the tots are accompanied by gilt
edged credentials or pay well for
their care.
''The Children's Home does not
have 10 solicit offerings because it
derives over $1,000 per year from
the taxpayers of Spokane, as
against the paltry $500 meted out
to the 40 orphans at Mrs. Dey's
home. If she maintains her 40 on
only $3.50 from the public treasury,
we wonder what the -Children's
Home does with the $1,000 it gets,
to keep only twice that number
"If the people who are COM
batting Mrs. Dey will come out and
give any good reason why she
should not continue at the head of
the work they should do So We
want to know. We have heard of
this talk for nearly two years, but
have yet found no one who would
come forward with facts. Either
close up entirely or else produce
the proof. If there is nothing
against Mrs. Dey she has as much
right to conduct an orphans home
as any other woman, association or
clique in Spokane"

gon, Walter Snyder's heart pinned
for sweetheart and there being no
available females in the neighbor-

Mr.. Stevens hopes to be able to mar

of such a perfect quality and flavor as
to brink Is cents per pound. He has
devoted only part Of his spare time in
tending this tract, using a hoe alto
gether. Mr., Stevens regular duties are
that of a mail carrier. but with a culti-
vator and team he believes he could
easily tend a dozen acres.
The variety is known as the thinner
Spanish and is a seed filed. similar to
a Havana in flavor. The seed was
secured from the government, being es-
pecially recommended for this section.
About the middle of march the seeds
were placed in hotbeds n In two
months the plants were t~ransplanted to

here they attained a height of four
