A Needed Reform.
This will help some. The liquor
dealers outside of the twin cities will
form statewide organization to stop
the practice as fast as possible, of
placing irresponsible men in charge
of drinking places. A start along
these lines has been made in Stearns
and Morrison countless Saltwater
Gazette.
Rolling Stone Gathers no Moss
Men are much the same anywhere.
He who cannot succeed in one COM
munity probably will not in another,
and he who gains respect and ad-
vantage anywhere, probably would
every where. The dream city always
lies just over the horizon. He who
moves often is never. satisfied and
rarely accomplishes much. -Roseau

Julius Entitled to q Third Term
Rumors are heard from discomfort
ed quarters that Secretary of State
Schmahl will have opposition for
nomination. Those who are agitat-
ing anything of the kind are wasting
time and energy. julius A. Schmahl
is a most efficient state official and he
is entitled to third term, which he
will get if he SO desires.-Roseau

Anent the Bungling "Blacksmith.''
A reputable publisher who takes
any kind of pride in his work.,may
make al occasional lmintentional
error, but his errors are not so com
monty glaring and absurd that he
finds it necessary to guarantee his
product to be ''free from errors''
when bidding for public work. No
one can afford to experiment with the
bungled work of a blacksmith, es-
pecially when titles to property may
be involved.-Wahkon Enterprise.

he says, "and the total amount Of
my wages was $47265. | paid or
my place last year $135. My chill

cannot get them. We deny our
selves nothing in the line of ne
cessities. Everything, especially
in the line of foodstuffs, has gone
up, only potatoes. Bacon has
gone up to 25 cents a pound and
butter has gone up 10 cents per
pound, and lots of other things
have gone up, too.

Another man, who works as a
labOrer for the city, writes that he
earned $3.50 last year. He has a
wife and two children. This man
says his children need clothing and
better provisions and a better

man pays $3.50 house rent and
spends nearly $40 a month for

Another man, who has been mar

dren, says his expenses, even
though he works every day, are
more than he can possibly earn
at $2.75 a day. He paid $270 on his
own home last year out of $75S,
his total earnings.
The fact that foodstuffs have
gone up is brought out in every
letter. One man says his family
cats no meat i'll winter. Another
says that he and his family are
forced to move into the country in
winter because rent and fuel are
cheaper out of town.

CHARGED BY r. L. HOOKER,
WHO CITES INSTANCES
OLD FRIENDS OF THE

SIS FOR $50 SERVICE

Charges of discrimination be-
cause Of favoritism in fixing prices
for crematory services is made by
r. L. Hooker, E419 Front avenue,
until recently an empIoye Of the
crematory department but now a
claim adjuster at 511 Hyde block.
Hooker cites one instance where
he says patron is getting serv'
Ice for sis per month that is worth
$50, simply because he is IAN old
friend" of the erematory superin-
tendent, c. D. Harmon. Another
patron, friend of the assistant ST.
perintendent, Pat Harmon, is get.

men are demanding an investiga-
ton of the crematory," said Hooker
today 1T needs it badly, and | can
testify to this from personal expe-
rience. There is discrimination in
the charges for the service given,

you are not so fortunate you can

take the case of the Spokane
stables. l knew what work was
being done there and entered a pro-
test to the superintendent, c. D..
Harmon, that the barn should pay
double the rate it was paying in or
der to be on an equal footing with
other people. | suggested that the
charge be raised from SIS to $50
per month. Harmon replied to me
an old friend; that he had known
him for long time and did not
want to raise the rates on him. So
the SIS went, and is still the charge
at that place.
"Then there are the Laidlaw
stables, "a blocks from the crema-
tory. The barn refuse is lifted out
of a basement and handled twice.
Prior to Superintendent Harmon
coming in. the city got 81 to $3.50
per load for this work, which was
reasonable enough. Pat Harmon
cut the price to $3.50 because he
said that Laidlaw was an old friend

Then there is the case of the

kane river instead of being Gre
mated When | asked the foreman
at the brewery why the city was
not burning the hops he said that

restaurant men have any kick com
ing" said William Bartram, pro
prietor of the Tuxedo cafe on Divi

the charges reasonable and the

FLOUR CHEAPER
ABROAD
SPOKANE BRANDS SELLING
For IS CENTS LESS ON THE
SACK AT NEWPORT, WASH,
THAN HERE, is THE REPORT.

Some surprise was created today
by the report just re ceved that
Spokane flour is selling in New
port, WASH, for IS cents less on
the sack than in Spokane. In Spo-
kane the price was recently ad-
vanced 10 cents per sack, now re-
failing at S1.e0.
This begins to look rs if the mill
ers were not giving Spokane pa
irons square deal. 1t is charged
that the millers. like every other
line of business in Spokane dealing
in food supplies, have a combina-
ton that raises and lowers prices
at will.
After the recent advance in flour
wholesale, grocer was asked:
For what will flour sell now"
His reply was: Il cant say until
| see what the retail price has been
/ fixed at"
The grocer was told to advance
/ loo on the sack by the millers, and
up it went.

employment office had misrepre-

Their work consisted in grading
