A Story of the Town

there were no observers. The girl
(she couldn't have been more than
20) needed aid. but none needed.
In all this great teeming city
there seemed none who cared nor
paused to offer succor.
The girl pailed and In sheer des-
peration olinched her gloved
hands---it was plain that crisis
approached.
Turning her back upon the busy
street she stopped gracefully and
made few deft movements with
her hand--and then she smiled.
Everything was all right again:l
the sharp Zines Of perplexity Ieft
her brow.

Co. Pays

The Stone-Webster lion and the
Pierce county lamb laid down to-
gether yesterday-with the usual
result.
Now Stone-Webster has fran
chise for so years to cross and re-
cross, tunnel, bridge, lay railways
and do about as it pleases with
the county roads up around Lake
Taps.
All Pierce county got for this
longtime franchise which will run
long after the present county COM
missioners are dead and will hang
there over the children yet un-
born, was that Stone-Webster paid
taxes it has been holding back for
three years.
AS other people all have to pay
their taxes without any conces-
sions, this is no concession at all.
1t was already due the county.
OF course, the company signed
a long agreement to build bridges
and maintain them, etc., for it's
lines where it crosses county
roads. But that is no concession

ing it's own works. The people
did not need those bridges and the
road was better without them.
The people did demand some
things. They asked that the COM
pany keep it's promises, towit: Ex-
tend the street car line to Sumner
and Orting, and reduce the fare
between Tacoma and Puyallup as
agreed upon by Manager DIM
mock.
But the county commissioners
passed these over and refused to
demand them. -.
Manager Bean paid to Treasurer
Meath s225,776.29 in back taxes
with interest, which was due the
county, and the commissioners
gave away rights belonging to the
people worth to the company more
than all the taxes amounted to. (,

by the county worth more to him
than the taxes, how. long would he

ACTION OF FIVE WOMEN IN KEEPING MEETING A SECRET
AND THEN FOlCING MATTERS THROUGH OF
SUSPICION - MONEY FURNISHED by SOMEONE Bun
GIVER KEPT SECRET. !

"At this meeting the organiza-
tion of \ so-called Chapter A. Of
the national organization was
forced through by Mrs. Mason and
the four women who were with
her. The other three women
present, including myself, suggests
ed that mass meeting be called
and that sensible number of the
members of the club be got to-
gether before such action was
taken. There are about sixty
members of this organization and
we did not want to see such q
step taken by such few.
THE question was put to a vote
however, and it stood four to three
in favor of forming the chapter,
Then the glowing report that d
goodly percentage of the members
of the organization were present
was made and was printed in thia
mornings paper"
From this statement the eonclu.
sion would be drawn that an enor-
nous and enthusiastic crowd was
present at the meeting yesterday.

WAITING
FOR BATTLE

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
Ell PASO, Feb. 9.-The situa-
tion at Juanez was unchanged to-
day. Gen. OroZco of the revolu-
tionary forces was still encamped
in the hills west of the city and
just across the Rio Grande from
the Ell Paso smelter. He was ap-
waiting for news from the
south, where, it Is said, rebel
bands under Gen. Blanco, Gen.
Sanchez and Gen. Casillas were in
ambush waiting to attack the force
of 1000 Mexican regulars which
Gen. Navarro was reported lead
ing to the relief of Juarez.

Who Is furnishing the financial
backing for the Tacoma organiza-
tion of women suffragists which is
headed by Mrs. j. Q. Mason?
Somebody furnished $500 for
the convention which was held
here recently and no one can find
out who gave it. Also somebody
Is furnishing money to maintain
the publicity bureau of the nation
al organization in this city. This
takes $4,000 a year.
That there is an underhand
scheme to control the woman vote
of the state is4evldenced by the
fact that Mrs. Mason yesterday
held meeting of the Tacoma
Equal Franchise club, of which,
according to Mrs. I.ucma Johnson,
only a very few women were noti-
fled, only eight being present.
II only learned of the meeting
by accident" says Mrs. Johnson,
"and l can prove that Mrs. Mason
deliberately kept 1t secret from
certain women whom she did not
want to be present.
