|. \. PRATHER
CANDIDATE FOR
SUPREME BENCH

For some time II has been ru-
mored on the street that Judge l..
H. Prather would be an acceptable
candidate for the office Of supreme
judge at the coming election and
that the would be willing to make
the race. Being asked this morn
ing to state whether he would be
such candidate and his views in
relation to the same, Judge Prather
said:
Yes, the matter has been
brought to may attention several
times. and | have now concluded
to become such candidate if | can
secure a nomination. The last leg
islature took the supreme Judge
ship out OF the operation of the
primary election law, and the nomi-
nation of candidates for the SUI

of government, must now be by
party convention. Notwithstanding
the generally expressed opinion
that the judiciary should be non
partisan, the members of the court

now receive their nominations
from party conventions.

170-FO0T FALL
DIDN'T PHASE HIM

After falling more than 10 feet
from the topmost section of the
Morris theater building, David
Danielson, a Scandinavian, age 20
years. gathered himself up, cas-
ually surveyed the distance of his
descent and sort of took an invoice
of his injuries. then limped away
to the office of DR.. Titus. The
accident occurred yesterday after
noon and was caused by the break
ing Of scaffClding on which Dan
ielson was working.
Danielson finally found terra
firma, or the nearest to it he had
discovered in his vertical journey
of half . block, in a barrel filled
with a mixture of waste concrete
and shayings, and it was indeed
very welcome, for the frightened
young workman had been clawins
wildly at sCaifOidings and supports
all the way down.

TELLS CREMATORY
TO co TO BOW-WOWS

After having come to an agree
ment as to the disposal of the gar
bage, DaVenport's restaurant and
the crematOry department again
fell out this morning, and Manager
Wraight of the restaurant told the
crematory that he could get along
without it and for the crematory
to go to the bow-woWs.
A city ordinance gives to the city
crematOry department the sole and
only right to remove garbage and
refuse matter within the limits of
the city, but against this ordinance
Davenport and the Hotel Spokane
seem tot be immune. All of the
little fellows have been made to
observe the law and recognize the
crematory, but not Dayenport's or

ADMITS TWO
NEWSTATES
(By United Press Leased Wire)

(By United Press Leased Wirel
WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The
house today adopted the senate
statehood bill providing for the ad-
mission of Arizona and New Mex
leo as states.
The house had previously adopt
ed a statehood bill. When this
measure was reported to the senate
the senate bill was substituted for
it and passed. The house adopted
the senate substitute, thus avoiding
the necessity for sending the meas
ure to conference. House members
declared that if the bill went to con-
ference it would be emasculated.
President Taft strongly favored
thesena tie bill and urged the lead
ers in the house to secure its adop-
ton. Therefore, it is expected that
his signature will soon be attached,
The vote on the measure in the
house was unanimous. 1t provides
for the admission of Arizona and
New Mexico as separate states.
A million acres of land are set
aside as public domain In each
state to provide for the paying OF
outstanding county bonds.
