EVIL Of

JAP GIRLS
More About How Police Are
Allowing Houses to
Reopen.

It was not until few days ago
that The Press learned some of the
facts as to the manner in which
somebody is capitalizing-commer-
ciaIizing, in other words, the re-
opening of resorts of III repute on
Front avenue.
One party who opened a resort
Of this kind tells of having given
up 5000 and. of a demand for $500
more, which they could not pay,
and that they were then forced to
dispose of the place to some one
else.. What their successor did in
the way Of paying the $500 is not
known, but it is presumed that the
money was advanced.
1t is hard to get at the inner
facts in the graft practiced on the
resorts and the gambling houses of
the city, but enough has come out
to show that it is eXacted on big
scale. This may not be pleasant
subject to handle in newspaper,
but the only way that the people
can arrive at the condition of af-
fairs is to publish the facts, and
that is what The Press proposes to
do.
Who the beneficiaries of this sys-
TEN are is not exactly known.

Here is a case In point as to the
utter lack of responsibility Of the
present Spokane scheme of city
government.
Deputy State Inspector Will
Adams some months ago made the
Interesting discovery that Theodore
Heise, who runs the Log Cabin sa-
loon on Lincoln street in Spokane,
was carrying on a vinegar factory
In connection with his bar. He made
the vinegar from the Ieavings OF
beer glasses, dumping whatever the
customer didn't care to drink, after
he had mouthed over It, into bar
rel and constructing the vinegar
fro mthat mess. Regardless OF its
filthy origin, the vinegar was mar
ketable product so long as no one
knew how II was made, until Adams
,, came along and stopped the opera
tion under the pure food law -.
Spokane is supposed to have
some sort Of protection from such
things, but it took a state officer to
discover Heise.
1t was the desire Of the state
officer and the mayor Of this city
that Heise be denied license to sell
liquor because of his clear infrac-
tion Of the pure food law and the re-
quirements of common decency.
Such recommendation was made.
Yet the council license commit.
tee, of which Peter Nelson is chair
man, recommended the granting OF
license to Theodore Heise when
the matter came up. The applica-
ton was reinforced by the recon-
mendation Of Chief of Police Sulli-
van, whose endorsement prevails
with the license committee without
further investigation. Last night
the council granted another license
to Heise.
The work Of the state inspector
was completely nullified by this ac-
ton so far as furnishing Heise is
concerned or making an example Of
him for other saloon keepers who
might be inclined to market their
beer slops.
Now the councilmen say that the
application for Heise's license was
duly approved, among others by
Chief of Police Sullivan, without
reference to the beer slop incident,
and that therefore the beer slop in
cident was not before the council
for consideration. Consequently,
there was nothing to do but grant
the license.
Chief Sullivan says that the only
matter in connection with the IL
cense application that came to him
to pass on was whether or not
Heise had conducted a disorderly
house. He says he could certify to
that and did. If the state inspector
or mayor had any other grievance
against Heise, Sullivan said he
knew nothing more about it than
what he read in the papers.
The upshot of 1t all is that the

}OTHER BABY DIES BECAUSE OF IMPURE MIILlEK&
DAIRY MILK
CAUSED
Death

The mother stood over her dead
baby, and as the tears streamed
down her face and fell on the life
less form of the little one, in her
anguish she exclaimed, "Why, oh,
why will people sell milk that will
cause innocent little children to
suffer so much and die?"
This mother was Mrs. o. w. Wal
drip of E2224 Sharp avenue, whose
II months old baby died one week
ago today. The baby was the only
child of Mr.. and Mrs. Waldrip.
The mother in nervous dread of
anything happening to the child,
was particularly cautious as to
what the baby ate and drank, and
when she heard of the deaths
caused by impure milk obtained
from the dairies she secured milk
from a neighbor who had her own
COW.
One day Mrs. Waldrip was in
vited to spend the day with a
friend. She took the baby with her.
The child ate bread and milk for
dinner and was Immediately taken
Ill. The milk was obtained from a
local dairy.
For 10 days the baby suffered
from accute Indigestion. DR.. John
r. Corkery who attended the child,
said death was caused from some
thing the baby ate or drank which
had been spoiled, but as to what it
was he did not know. The fact
that it had nothing but bread and
milk convinced the mother that it
was the milk.
The parents were so heart-broken
over the loss of their baby that
they left Spokane Immediately,
took the body to ColfaX for burial
and have decided to make their
home at that place.

PLAN ST|RS
.UPHORNET'S
F.. NEST HERE
Convention Probably Now
Will Not Favor West
Side Man.

Finding that their game to try to
have the Spokane republican coun-
ty convention next Saturday go on
record as favoring west side can
didate for United States senator
had stirred up a hornets nest, the
John L. Wilson manager are now
crying, 1--WE did not mean it," and
asking for peace. They now say to
the Poindexter men, 1--WE are will
ing to let the question of all en-
dorsements drop, if you fellows do
the same; but if you attempt to
start anything we will be there at
the finish"
The Poindexter forces have nc
great faith in these promises and
are working along the line of the
first information given out, to the
effect that the Wilson crowd was
ready to slip something over or
them. There have been meetings
every night this week of the Poin
dexter men, and plans have been
laid to get share of the delegates
to be elected tomorrow night in the
various precincts. The Poindexter
men are not going around with
chips on their shoulders, but if a
scrap comes they want to be in the
thick of the fight.
With the friends of Judge Poin'
dexter the desire in the beginning
was to leave OUT all questions OF
endorsements from the county and
state conventions, for the reason
that these conventions are held to
nominate judges of the supreme
court, a duty into which politics
ought not to enter. 1t was the de-
sire Of the Wilson crowd to gain
capital wherever possible that
started the rumpus, which prom
ises now to be hot one by the
time it blossoms forth at Tacoma
in August.

NEW YORK, June 22.-Ths is
the worst year the fireworks max
ers of the country have ever exper-

The safe and sane Fourth of July
idea is being agitated so generally
throughout the United States that
the business of making and selling
fireworks has suffered a great set

manufacturers of fireworks must
join with the public in pushing the
idea, We are talking Of presenting
bill for congress to pass which
will prevent the manufacture or
shipment of dangerous fireworks,
including caps, torpedoes or large
firecrackers.
There are plenty of noise max

council of this city finds no offenso
in saloon keeper making vinegar
for sale from sour and sort Of sec
ond hand beer. in spite of the fact
that an inspector authorized by the
state had found the offense and had
sought to have it punished.
And the beauty of the thing IS
that every official concerned can
lay the blame on any or every other
official concerned, with the result
that the saloon keeper gets his IL
cense to continue business and goes
on his way serenely.
1t Is stated that he has quit the

CLAIM THEY WERE

A lot oi trouble resulted from tho

laborers from Manila, the meager facts
concerning which have already reach
ed here At llongkong the batch of
laborcrs were overhauled and twelve
of hem said they were being taken TO
Honolulu against their viii. They We're
released on the spot and left to make
their way back 20 Manila as best they
could. The Manila Cablenews, of Au-
gust rs, gave the following account Of
the origin of the trouble
According to a statement by Mr.
Taylor of the Hawaiian Sugar Plant
ers' Association, a small instruction
was created aboard the Tanning before
she sailed Tuesday for Hongkong. In
explaining his position regarding the
Filipino laborers secured for the plan
tations in Hawaii, and the attacks up
on his policy, MIR. Taylor said yester-
day: AT our request it is the custom
at the departure of emigrants from
Manila for Hawaii for one or two Sc
cret service men to be present at the
steamer for two purposes, first to see
that no criminals avail themselves of
the opportunity to leave the country,
and secondly, to witness the treatment
of the emigrants. In any doubtful case
| the secret service officers are requested
| to take note of what transpires and,
if they desire, make inquiries to salts
| fly themselves. On August 16 the Sc
cret service agent inquired of Macario
Mascarinas whether or not he desired
to go to Hawaii and he replied he did
1t seems Mr.. E. ]. Kapples was the dis
satisfied party and after our departure
boarded the Tanning and held, as far
as circumstantial evidence goes, lit
tie insurrecto meeting of his own on
board. AS soon as the case of Mas
carinas was brought us officially wir
ed to the steamship managers in Hong
kong as follows: ASK Mascarinas, No
31O1 absolutely uninhuenced if desires
go Hawaii. If not return"
"The Tanning arrived in Hongkonl
Tuesday forenoon and the agent very
promptly cabled: Twelve of the Tam
ing lot refuse to go to Honolulu"
"This is evidently the result of the
insurrecto meeting on the Tanning a
Manila, said Mr.. Taylor. Direction
were cabled to Hongkong as follows
They either go to Honolulu or turf
them loose in Hongkong.'
