TEAMSTER STABS
FORMER FOREMAN
Discharged Laborer Wounds
George GoebeI During Fight
in Grading Camp
SEEKS TO KILL THE COOK
Returns with Gun and Shoots Up
Place but Is Finally
Subdued

George Goebel, "a years old. fore
man for Donavan & Bourland, con-
tractors, was stabbed twice in the left
shoulder and painfully wounded by
Albert Duke last night while trying to
prevent the latter from shooting Fred
Hill, a cook at a grading camp near
Ivanhoe station. Duke later was
taken into custody by Detectives Zeig-
Ter and Ingram and is booked at the
police station on a charge of assault
to commit murder. Goebel is in the
receiving hospital.
The trouble started shortly after z
o'clock last night. Duke was former
ly employed as q teamster by the con-
tractors, who are excavating a reser-
voir at Ivanhoe for the Los Angeles
Water company. While he was stay
ing at the camp he became involved
in a difficulty with the cook. Duke
was discharged recently and has been
living in a camp near Griffith park.
Thursday night, 1t is alleged, he ap-
peared at the grading camp and began
shooting up the place. He was fright
ened away and when he left he threat
ened to return and settle the matter.
Last night he appeared and, so the
witnesses state, fired several shots at
Hill. Goebel finally disarmed the man
ana LDe S6lZtO ali ttA anu ihehdC
an attempt to strike the cook. Duke
again was disarmed by Goebel and
given a severe beating. The foreman
then allowed Duke to get up after the
latter had promised to leave the place
and not molest the men.
AS Duke rose to his feet he drew a
large knife from his pocket and at
tackled Goebel, cutting the latter twice
on the shoulder before he was over
powered.
The matter was reported to the CEN
trail police station by some excited per-
son, who stated that one man was
dead and another seriously wounded.
Detectives Zeigler and Ingram were
hurried to the scene in an automobile
and brought both men in.
Jack Robertson, teamster, attempt
ed to wrest the knife from Duke be-
fore the latter stabbed Goebel and
narrowly escaped being injured, his
left sleeve being slashed
Martin Olivera finally wrested the
knife from Duke after the cutting and
held the man until the arrival of the
officers,

OF THE DAWN OF
GOLD TO BE GREAT SHOW
State Fair viii DepopuIate Inte-
rior California

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 19.-Interior
California will be practically depopu-
lated during the time the state fair
holds forth in Sacramento, If the re-
ports which are being received daily by
the Fiesta of the Dawn of Gold execu-
tive committee can be relied upon as
showing the sentiment of the communi-
ties from which they emanate.
From all sections of the state mes
sages are being received indicating an
almost universal interest in the fiesta
and many of them asking for hotel
reservations. The members of the COM
mittee believe that the attendance will
exceed their most sanguine eXpecta-
tions and they are graphing energet-
icaIly with the problem of providing
suitable accommodations for the Wis
itors. Every hotel and lodging house
in Sacramento is being listed and every
visitor to the fair will be taken care
of without the usual discomfort and
inconvenience which strangers are sub
tected to under similar conditions.
All the plans for the fiesta are now
complete and the various sub-commit-
tees are hard at work perfecting the
details for the big show. From Sep
tember 8 to September 10 Sacramento
will be decidedly on the map.

nominees must be conducted-with the
aid of the Democracy.
REFORM ELEMENT IN CONTROL

aid of the Democracy.
REFORM ELEMENT IN CONTROL
The reform element of the Republi-
can party is now in control of the
party, hence the league will have no
real object to maintain it future entity.
The league will control the next county
convention by 156 votes, and this in
sures the election of county central
committee made up of Lincoln -RooSe-
velt Republicans; also the odoption of
Lincoln Roosevelt Republican plat
form, the election of a Lincoln -Roose-
welt chairman and the control by the
Lincoln Roosevelt league Of the next
state convention, through which the
league also will obtain control of the
next state central committees; so the
Lincoln Roosevelt league is no longer
a league-no longer Republican fac
ton. 1t has become THE Republican
party in California.
The Republican party is indeed to be
congratulated-but so is the Demo-
cratic party-for what the Republicans
accomplished last Tuesday the Demo-
Gratis accomplished many months ago.
The Republican party went into the
campaign disrupted, and with vast
problem and strenuous task in front
Of it; the Democratic party went into
thoroughly
and determined, cleansed of the s. p.
stain, loyal to its principles of reform
and clean and resolute. It has watched
the insurgents wage their fight on what
was originally Democratic issue, and
regardless of the success of that issue
in the Republican party it is going to
keep on fighting along the same lines
laid down when it first renounced the
yoke of the S. p. It's candidates are
clean and efficient men, they stand Vir-
tually for the same patriotic prin-
ciples espoused by the leaders Of the
Lincoln Roosevelt league and they are
working diligently for the success Of
these principles.
Wherever necessary for the cause Of
better government, or wherever neces-
sary to free any particular community
from the S. p. collar of bossism, the
Democrats have appeared magnani-
mously willing to cooperate with the
good government Republicans, laying
party differences aside to defend the
rights of the people against the abuses
of the machine or to insure the
triumph of the people over the cor
porations; but where not necessary and
as in the state campaign now confront
ing us, and where the Democrats of the
state question the preference of GER
tain candidates, the Democrats will
wage their battle in their own way
and leave it to the people to decide the
respective merits of their candidates
and issues.
May the best triumph.

GOOD GOVERNMENT TICKET

GOOD GOVERNMENT TICKET
This done, the Good Government or
ganization ticket, which probably will
contain the names only of about six or
seven nominees, will be placed on the
general election ballot and when the
voters OF Los Angeles city and county
go to the polls on November s they
will be urged, in the interest of good
government, clean politics and admin
istrative honesty and efficiency, to vote
the Good Government ticket. Demo-
Gratis and Republicans uniting in this
purpose and voting the third ticket,
the machine and its incumbents will be
completely squelched.
That seems to be the only solution
to the problem now presented in this
county. And, with this object in view,
1t is expected the Good Government or
ganization will soon begin actively to
plan it's crusade.
The Lincoln Roosevelt league, as a
party faction. of course, has ceased to
exist, for its function was performed
in waging the campaign for the "in-
surgent" candidates and the primary
election ended the demand for its ac-
tivities. whatever work In the inter
est of better government the Lincoln
Roosevelt faction of Republicanism
henceforth performs must be done by
the individual members of the league
in their capacity as members and sup
porters of the Good Government or
ganization, through which the fight

SIGNS INDICATE JAPAN
WILL SOON ANNEX KOREA
Japanese Officials Maintaining a
Sphinx-Like Attitude

SEOUL, Aug. 19.-Though nothing Of
fetal can be learned confirming the re-
ports that negotiations for the annexa-
ton of Korea by Japan are proceeding
many signs indicate that annexation
is imminent. Long conferences be-
tween officials are constantly in prog
ress; visits are frequently interchanged
and great activity is noticed in the
Japanese offices.
The censorship has been placed on
even a more rigid basis than before and
Toxic newspapers containing reports
on the situation are confiscated on
their arrival in this country. The en-
tire country has been placed under a
strong military guard and several
Japanese war vessels are now patrol
ing the coasts of Korea. The situation
indicates extreme tension but officials
maintain a sphinxlike attitude, refus-
ing to make any statement regarding
any action.

WANT REGULATION
OF SALOONS

"A complete revolution of the
saloon business to meet the de-
mand of a progressive people, is
what Mr.. Gay, of the Kalispell Malt
ing and Brewing Co., is advocating
among the saloon men of this
county and he reports that every
where along the line he is meeting
with the hearty cooperation OF not
only liquor dealers, but others as
we'll.
Regulation in it's true sense"
says Mr.. Gay, lis what we want,
and the sooner the saloon keeper
realizes that this must be done, the
sooner will he evolve from a busi-
ness which is now considered by a
great number as dishOnOrable one.
The liquor business if conducted
right, is as legitimate a line of trade
as that of the grocery or drug store,
but there are those who will over
step the bounds of decency and then
the entire fraternity receives the
blame for it.
THE day of the old bar room,
covered with saw dust, and dance
hall in connection, is fast becoming
a thing of the past. Time was wha
the public wanted that kind of a
saloon, but it is different now, and
the liquor manufacturers are as
anxious to weed out this class of
saloons as is the public. They re-
alize that it is this thing that is
causing the strong wave of public
sentiment against them, and that
unless remedied the country will
eventually accept prohibition, and
We certenly don't want that.
At a meeting of saloon men in
=, Whitefish last week, it was decided
that they would not Sell or give to
drunken man any drinks, Meth er
will they tolerate the use of profane
language in their places. In one of
the saloons in Columbia Falls hangs
a sign which says, IF your Family
NCGUS your MOHSy, w e Don w ant
It
''If these policies are lived up to-
If the saloon is made respectable
(and | contend that it CAM prohi-
bition will cease to be, and the
country will continue to benefit by
the enormous taxes paid by the sa-
loon interests, and saloon evils will
be permanently bOlished.--Colum-
bian.

THREATENED TO
CHOP HIM UP

G. w. Lininger came to town Sat
urday from the State Mill, and hav-
ing walked in was considerably fa-
tigued. He stopped near the county
bridge south of town to rest and
talk with Chas. +. Davis, who was
working on a house which was in
course of erection, owned by Mr..
Garibaldi, an Italian. The latter was
irritated by the interference, and
ordered Mr.. Lininger to move on.
Not knowing that he was on the
Italians premises, Mr.. Lininger re-
fused to retreat, whereupon the
Italian started toward him with a
two-bitted axe, threatening him
with dire vengence. Not desiring to
have any trouble Mr.. Lininger walk
ed away and reported the matter to
the marshall
Upon investigation it was found
that the Italians fit of anger was
eXcusable, because of trouble he
had had with some unknown person
whom he thought was Juggling off
his building material.

PRESENTED WITH
HANDSOME CHARM
AND CHAIN

AS a token of esteem and good
fellowship, the employees of the G.
N. shops here, presented to David
fnelan, the retiring foreman of the
roundhouse, a very handsome gold
chain and charm. The charm is en-
blematic Of the Knights of Colum-
bus of which he is member.
The presentation, which was made
by James Martin, came as an entire
surprise to Mr.. Phelan, and is most
highly appreciated.
Dave has been very popular with
the boys and with the company, and
the work has gone along very har-
moniously and without friction un-
der his supervision, the company
having no fault to find with the
management of his department, and
the boys always ready and willing
to perform their duty, hence their
very generous token of remem-
brance.

RELIC OF bY-GONE DAYS

Mr.. and Mrs. G. T. Soper, parents
of Mrs. G. A. Matthews, arrived
here a short time ago from Port
Huron, Mich, and will spend the
winter visiting with their daughter.
Mr.. and Mrs. Soper, brought with
them three pieces of furniture
which they prize very highly.
They are two old fashioned
chairs and dining room table that
were among their first pieces of fur
niture when they started housekeep-
ing shortly after their marriage 50
years ago. The chairs are now oc-
cupying a very prominent position
around the stove in the store, and
the many visitors there that often
use them wonder why these quaint
chairs should be occupying such a
prominent position, but upon being
informed of the history connected
with them, ono doesn't wonder at
it.

ORGANIZED

A new club has been organized
calling itself the Commercial club,
the purpose being as the name i'm
plies, to serve as meeting place
to discuss social and civic business
and do general boosting for White
fish.
The upper floor of the old bank
building recently purchased by
S. S. Stacey, has been leased by the
club for three years, which will fur
nish commodious quarters.
A reading room, and pool and bill
lard tables will be installed for the

when the association can afford to
do so a gymnasium and other fea-
lures will be added.
1t is the intention of the club to
incorporate, and a membership fee
will be charged of sufficient amount
to maintain the club in a substan-
tial .lanner.
An active campaign is being made
to secure a good sized membership
and as a great many are signing the
list freely it is anticipated that it
will soon be started off with
unqualified success.
