Come out tonight and help.
Tacoma is going. to count the
rest of that 100000 people and
run the census above the figure.
Six brass bands will be down

Organized clubs will be out

This is the end of the census.
1t will all be over at midnight.
Amy not listed then will never be
listed in this census. And Taco
ma has got to have that 100, 600.
We want more and the boosters
say we will get them. It is to be

LONDON, May 7.-George v.
was formally proclaimed king OF
England this afternoon from the
quadrangle Of st. James palace.
The privy council met at the
palace and formally declared Ed-
ward dead. Then the govern
ment leaders at once visited King
George in the adjoining room.
The lord chancellor administer
ed the dual oath of England and
Scotland. Impressive silence on
the part of his hearers marked the
responses of the new king.
The ruler then announced HIM
self as George v. and the heir APP
parent, Prince Edward, stepped
forward and received the oath of
Sir ALFRED Scott-Gatty, king-at-

Then followed fanfare Of
trumpets, the presentation OF
arms by the assembled troops and
great shout from the entire az

LEI 7 To
CLOSING ARGUMENTS IN SEC
OND TRIAL OF MRS. KVAI-
SHAUG MADE TODAY.

For the second time, the fate
of Mrs. Martina Kvalshaug will be
in the hands of jury late this
afternoon. Her attorney, Frank
H. Kelly, completed his final ad-
dress to the jury at moon and
Deputy Prosecutor Burmeister is
closing the case this afternoon.
1t is understood between the
attorneys on both sides that the
trial is to be completed today,
and an extension of the regular
court session will de made If nee
essary.
Kelly Makes Strong Plea
Kelly made a long and forceful
plea for his client, holding that
she had been falsely accused of
conspiring against the life of her
husband. He laid much stress
upon the fact that she gave a
shrill when her husband was shot
by Charles Newcomb. The state
maintained that it was Kvalshaug
who screamed and not the woman,
and this was the testimony OF
Newcomb while on the stand as
well as in his written confession.
Believes Confession Untrue.
He told the jury at great length
of how he had finally decided that
the woman's confession was un-
true, after trying in vain for days
to get her to tell him anything
connected with her making the
confession. Upon that point, ne
said, her mind was entirely a
blank.
Kelly began his address to the
jury at 1880 yesterday afternoon
and talked continuously during
the sessions of the court until
noon today. Burmeister says he
intends to finish about o'clock.
Woman Is Cool.
Mrs. Kvalshaug shows no signs
OF concern as the critical hour
draws near. She listens attentive
ly to the arguments and during
the recesses of court walks back
and forth in the courtroom be-
fore the gaze of the spectators
who crowd the room. She ate
about as much as usual this noon.
and talked pleasantly with the
matron.
How long the jury will delib-
crate is a matter of conjecture.
The states attorneys declare that
they have stronger case than in
the first trial, in which the jury
disagreed after an all-night strug-
gle with the mass of evidence.
The attorneys for the defense.
IN the other hand, point out that
hey have impeached some of the
states important testimony.

Whether Mrs. Macready or Miss
Ailstrum, or some other woman,

this movement, and who have
been aroused by the attack of the
dealers on Mrs. Macready, will be
on the war path for the rigid en-
forcement of the law. The deal
ers planned to get a man from

sentiment will not stand for it.
The demand on the city hall now
Is that they be compelled to toe

however, stirred up a fight, and
now they will get the law an
