What actually happens is that the

by the drop as it gradually goes away.

IS THE COUNCIL
TRYING To BURY
THAT PETITION?
PEOPLE MAY HAVE TO FIGHT FOR RIGHT TO
VOTE ON COMMISSION
PLAN.

At first it was announced that the
election for an official charter com.
mission would be called without any
delay or jockeying by the city coun-
Gil. but now the information comes
out that the council will take it's
own time in granting the request.
The charter election committee
has asked that the election be
called within 80 days. but the coun-
Gil does not propose, it appears, to
get in near so great hurry.
AT present the petition for the
election, which cantains over 5000
names, is in the hands of City Clerk
Fleming for notification as to the
legality of the signers. The state
law, under which the petition was
filt d, says that it must be signed by
20 per cent of the qualified voters.
and now the question has arisen,
how is the city clerk to determine
who are qualified voters.
If the required qualifications is
based on the fact that a voter is
registered, as some say that the
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1910-05-30

city clerk may hold, then the petit
ton will likely fail of the required
number of signatures. But under
the state law definition of qualified
voters is anyone who is entitled by
American citizenship, age and resi-
dence to register at the city hall is
entitled to sign the petition. and on
this finding the committee says it
has 1900 names more than the re-
quired number.
There is also talk of burying the
petition in the council committee of
the whole, should it pass muster
with the city clerk, in which case
the only recourse for the charter
election committee would be a re-
election committee would be a re-
course to the courts to compel the
council to act. If necessary, the
committee will take this step.
At all events, it begins to appear
as if the people are not to get to
ballot on their pleasure as to a
commission plan of government
without a struggle.

A SURPRISE At
THE 0RPHEUM
BY 3. n. S.

When pretty girl came sailing
out from the darkened stage in an
airship and glided, with twinkling
lights, over the heads of the audi
ence. the people at the Orpheum
yesterday really were taken by sur
prise. And surprlse-in other words,
novelty-is one of the chief things
which make vaudeville a success.
The girl who does this stunt is
Annabelle Whitford, who also gives
q lifelife portrayal of the "Brinkley
Charmer" and other famous Amer
lean girl types. AS one irreverent
youth remarked, "She is all to the
candy"-and no praise could be
more sincerely given than that was.
While the Five Olympiers were
not quite as good as an act of SINH
lar nature given early in the season,
their series of classical poses was
very good and pleasing.
Frank White and Lew Simons are
couple of satisfactory blackface
artists, and the latter's plea for
something to make him bulge" at
the waistline was very funny. Also
the ghost scene" brought tears of
laughter to eyes.
Their Daddy" is a playlet partic-
ularly well given by the children in
