Blow Your Horn.

ana son Harold and Andrew Stew
enson, with their chauffer-all of
Chicago, are making an automo.
bile tour from the big western
metropolis through Ohio, Penn.
sylvania, and the New England
states. Last Friday, as they
were entering our neighboring
town Everett, they observed an
innocent looking sign, "Blow
Your Horn" and without seeing
any particular reason for doing
so, the man al the wheel blew the
horn. 1t he did not know the
reason at the time he found out
later, for they had not proceeded
many blocks through the city un
til they were confronted by a
Balr, and informed that the
chauffer was wanted at the Office
of Justice of the Peace Rltchey.
When the chauffer, accompanied
by Mr.. Peterson, appeared be-
fore his honor, he was informed
that an assessment of 81 so was
due the Borough of Everett for
exceeding the speed limit, Officer
Balr, having sworn that the party
had driven 100 yards in 13 sec
onds. The cash was passed over
the counter, receipt therefore
obtained, and the party about to
continue their journey, when an
other automobile was seen ap-
preaching at a pretty good clip.
Mr.. Peterson suggested that the
officer pull his stop watch on the
coming automobile, but the officer
not showing any disposition to
do so, Mr.. Peterson told him that
if he did noe, he would inquire
the reason. The officer then
drew his stop watch, and halted
the machine, which proved to be.
long to Hon. Joseph Thropp, OF
Everett, and MIR. Thropp was IN.
formed that he had exceeded the
speed limit by driving 100 yards
in 10 seconds. Mr.. Peterson con
cluded that the officers reluc,
tance to hold up the SECOND ma
chine was due to the fact that he
recognized his man, and was not
ANXIOUS to tackle Mr.. Thropp.
Mr.. Peterson informed the NEWS
reporter that he did not have time
to stay to see how much they
made Mr.. Thropp cough up.
The day before Thursday,
Constable Steach, of this borough
received an exciting telephone
message from that same Everett
officer to look out sharp for an
automobile party who had been
audacious enough to violate the
speed limit IN Everett. Sure
enough, along they came quietly
enough, but when they pulled up
In front of the Fulton House, the
party was scared into Mysteries
by our Constable swinging a gun
IN the face of the chauffeur, grab
bing him violently by the collar,
and informing him, "You are my
prisoner. The fellow would not
have been more surprised If he
had been hit IN the face with a
rotten tomato; but he, with the
owner of the car, went along to

informed that the "prisoner" had

SHERMAN. MAY REACH PACIFIC
 MAIL LINE
Secretary of War Advises Drastic Action Against
 Southern Pacific

WASHINGTON, D. C., February 2S. of War Dickinson proposed today that the antitrust law be invoked to break the monopoly by which the Pacific Mail and Hartman transconti- mental lines control the business of the Pacific coast and Isthmus.
 When it was suggested today that a suit under the Sherman law might fail because the steamship company was op- erated as an independent line, and might be considered a competitor of the Southern Pacific, members of the sen ate committee on canals discussed the advisability of recommending legisla- tion that would reach the merger.
 The hearing today was held to give the secretary an opportunity to answer the criticism of Bristow that the gov ernment is aiding the transcontinental railroads by not encouraging the estab- lishment of an independent line on the Pacific. Dickinson produced the pro posed contract to show an understand ing of the offer. The indicated com pany was to have an exclusive contract and many other favors Dickinson said could not be granted.
 The statement was made by Dick msOn that he was practically cOerced by the serious situation into consenting

SNOW STILL FALLING

SEATTLE, February 2S.-freezlne temperature in the Cascades has tempor, arily averted the danger of floods in western Washington and given the northern transcontinental railroads an opportunity to renew the fight against snowslides which blocked the lines last week.
 Snow is still falling in the noun tains and the Northern Pacific still is the only road operating through the Cascades. Traffic on the line was de, layed several hours today by slide near Easton, but the line is clear to- night.
 The Great Northern is centering its efforts in releasing the Spokane ex- press, which, with ifty-one passengers, has been stalled in the mountains since Thursday.
 Reports tonight say the rescue parties are within half mile of the stalled train. It is expected the snowbound passengers will be released in the next twenty hours. An avalanche at Scenic today carried out 400 feet of the Great Northern track, but there was no other damage.

 He showed conclusively that the prop osition presented by B. N. Baker of Baltimore was of such radical character that its acceptance would have been a violation of the authority vested in him as secretary of war or any other cabinet official

 Before backache becomes chronic:

 Here is testimony to prove it.
 Horace B. Palmer, 436 $. Meyer street, Tucson Ariz., says: "I was troubled by my back and kidneys for long time and on the suggestion of a friend I used Doan's Kidney Pills. am glad to say that this remedy brought me great benefit. A dull pain through my kidneys obliged me to walk in stopped position and at night I was robbed of my rest, having to get up to pass the kidney secretions. Of ten when the secretions were voided, there was scalding sensation present Doan's Kidney Pills took away the pain and regulated the passages of the secretions. While I used only one box of this preparation, I was given lasting relief. The fact Shat a person of my age can be so greatly benefited by Doan s Kidney Pills leaves no room for doubt of their efficiency.'

 The secretary took the position that an exclusive contract would reverse the whole policy of the government.
 Then several Senators pressed him for his opinion of the surest way to break the Pacific Mail monopoly. He said the surest way would be for the government to build and operate ships, but would not say that such would be the wisest. He did not care to indorse government ownership.

Although it has been rumored, since the recent purchase of the Palace liv- cry stable by Postmaster Ralph Sturgis, as agent for Sheriff Henry Thompson and George E. Shute, that there would soon be shake up at the local post office and that Sturgis would resign, the first authentic information regarding this change was received by the Silver Belt late last night in the above tele- gram.
 Owing to the lateness of the hour at which the above telegram was re- ceived, Mr. Sturgis could not be found to make statement regarding the af- fair Coming from a reliable source, however, there is apparently no doubt as to the news of the coming change in the management of the Globe post office.
 The exact date of the change has not been announced. It is understood, however, that Mr. Burnett will take up active work within short time.
 c. F. Dutton of Phoenix, postal in spector for the Denver division, was in this city yesterday, making an inspec- tion of the local postoffice. He went over the accounts of the office very thoroughly and found matters in ex- cellent shape.
 This inspection, coming at time when Mir. Sturgis' resignation was known in postal circles to be practical ly accepted, is in itself significant and it will probably be matter of only few days until Mir. Sturgis will give up his official position.
 MT, Burnett, who will soon be at the head of the postal service of this city, has been connected with the Old Do minion Copper Mining & Smelling com pany, in its general office, for some time. He is well known in this city and stands well in the ranks of the re publicans of Gila county.
