truth compared very favorably with Mr..

was not exactly certain whether it did
or not.
Mr.. Mattingly contended that there was
no written contract with Mr.. Gray to do
any work in Mount Rainier, and Town
Clerk Stallings was sent for the papers
in the case. The fact was then developed
that bids were received and that the
ton submitted by Mr.. Gray. Mr.. Mat
tingly contended that he had never seen
the bids. and it was the duty of the
mayor and council to submit them to
him before acting in the premises. At
this point several citizens were asking
the mayor questions, and in the confusion

Alleged Discrimination.

Charles NJ. Lightbown, a local con-
tractor. wanted to know why he was re-
CURED to live up to the building regula-
tions when other builders were allowed
to violate them at will. Mayor Joyce re-
piled that he had named inspectors in
whom he reposed confidence. and that
they alone were responsible for any in
fraction Of the regulations. Street Com
missioner w. W. James undertook to
place the blame on Councilman W. w.
Proctor, declaring that the latter had
caused permits to be issued without the
approval of drawings. The councilman
sprang to his feet with the assertion that
If Mr.. James wanted to butt in, he would

UNION RECORD EDITOR PAYS
BRIEF VISIT

The Journal editor had the pleasure
Monday of showing a party of visitors
from the Queen city over the City of
Smokestacks and charging on the quail
tiles of the city which We all think is
the best that ever laid out doors.
Editor Mcnamara of the Seattle Union
Record accompanied by his wife and
Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander and daughter
were the parties in question and in the
all too brief time they had at their
disposal for seeing Everett we at
tempted to give them some idea of the
general Typography and natural advan-
tages of Everett.
Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander and daughter
are relatives of Mr. and Mrs. Mcnamara
and claim the East as their home but
after spending three months in the Puget
Sound country they are almost ready to
turn their faces westward no for keeps.
Bro. Mcnamara reports that Seattle
unionists are laying great plans for the
entertainment of Samuel Gompers this
month. They are contemplating among
other things an automobile trip to points
of interest We did not neglect the op-
portunity to inform Mac that Everett
was the greatest shingle producing cen
ter in the country and had one Of the
largest shingle mills and that the tour
would not be complete if it did not in
elude Everett.

The Labor Day committee has every
thing well in hand and is preparing
program for the day which we feel sure
will be thoroughly enjoyable to both
old and young. The day will be crowded
full with varied entertainment and
from the time Of the big parade at II
a. m. until the last dance is called at
night in the Coliseum rink, there will
be something doing every minute. In the
next issue of the Journal complete
program of the events of the day will
be published.
II has been decided to charge a small
admission fee of 25 cents at the gate at
the afternoon sports and exercises. This
| is made necessary from the fact that
this year no soliciting of cash or its
equivalent will be undertaken from the
business firms of the city. The neces.
sary expenditures for Labor Day will
be heavy and will be met by a charge
at the gate at Robbins Park and the
receipts from the dance at Coliseum
rink.
The mammoth industrial parade will
be the feature of the day. The com
mittee is pleased with the reports COM
ing in from the unions regarding the
number of men that will be in line,
Practically all the unions in the city
have signified their intention to be in
line J. NJ. Gibbs of the electrical work
ers has been chosen as grand marshal of
the day and E. J. Edney of the retail
clerks will be his chief aide. Each union
in the city has been asked to select its
own aides and a meeting OF all aides
has been called to meet in the Labor
Temple at 1890 a. m. Snday morning,
August D. For the information of the
locals the number of aids appointed to
each local is here given: Electrical
workers, 2; plumbers, /; fathers, l;
building laborers, l; plasteres, l; shingle
weavers, 4 brewery workers, l; stage
workers, /; engineers, l laundry driv-
ers, l; ladies' label league, 4 laundry
workers, ?; retail clerks, / cigarmak
ers, l; bridge and structural iron
workers, /; carpenters, 4 longshoremen,
,; typographical union, /; pressmen, /;
BARRIERS. teamsters. 3; railway train.
men, /; tailors, /; stage workers, l.
These organizations are urged to name
their aides at once If no regular meet
ing is scheduled to take place before
Labor Day at which the aides can be
named, the committee urges that a spec
ial meeting be called or the aides APP
pointed by the executive officers. 1t
is important that all aides attend the
meeting August 9th in order that the
parade features may be definitely plan
ned and the parade be pulled off strictly
on schedule time
Watch the Labor Journal and the daily
papers next week for detailed program
of the days events.

TO BUTTERMAKERS

The Pure Food commissioners
working in this end of the state an
nounce the following form to be used
on butterwrappers:
Idaho State Dairy Butter manu-
featured by (give name and address).
This package contains 16 ounces met"
1t is not necessary to show whether
the maker of the butter separates the
cream by gravity or by machinery.
The butter must be pure and sweet
when offered to the trade, and anyone
having strong or short-weight butter
on the market is liable to prosecution.
If the dealer is found with butter
on hand that does not come up to
these requirements he is liable to
prosecution, whether he has been de-
ceived or not. The label will enable
him to go back to the customer for
relief, and thus the responsibility
rests with the producer in the end.
In order to protect the dealer a slight
allowance should be made for shrink
age. but just how much the shrinkage
amounts to will depend upon the con-
dition OF the butter, and this can be
determined by weighing a roll at in
tervals of a few days.
Persons using any other form than
the one outlined above should change
the form when they get the next order
printed. 2tf

b. Y. p. U. RALLY

The Eastern Idaho B. Y. P. U,
rally was held at West Firth ON the
4th and 9TH of July.
The place decided upon was ideal
1t wa situated on the bank of old
Snake river where trees and grass
made a homelike appearance. The
meetings were held n open, under
the trees, there being a platform
erected for the speaker, string band
and choir, and temporary seats built
to accommodate the people.
At II o'clock on Tuesday morning,
Reverend Lydum, OF West Firth,
opened the meetings with a hearty
t"Welcome'' to everybody. We then
watched races and made ourselves
better known until we called
to a delicious picnic dinner prepared
by the good Swedish people of West
Firth. This, of course, we did justice
to-.
The way was then left clear for a
ramble or stroll, exploring and en-
Toying ourselves in the sand and on
the rocks and small islands, and hav-
ing a splendid time.
The afternoon session at 3 O'Clock
was given up entirety TO the Swedish
people, there being so many Swedish
femilies, part or whom did not under
stand the English language very well.
Supper vas then spread on the long
table under the trees, and each per-
son was given a plate to go and help
himself, which We all did without a
second invitation.
After a short rest the evening
meeting, which was an evangelistic
service led by Reverend w. R. Jewell,
pastor of the Blacktot church, began.
This was a very interesting and help
full service and a number of young
people were brought up to their Lord
and Savior.
We were at this time assigned to
our respective homes for the night
and we all had a delightful ride in
the cool air. At the differet homes,
we were treated royalty, given a.. we
could eat, all the room we wanted,
the orchard with it's cherries, the
lavas to climb around and explore
and all the music we could wish for.
Wednesday morning after all our
enjoyment and another fine ride, the
morning service at II O'Clock, which
was a B. Y. P. u. conference, began.
Another delightful time and the
picnic dinner was served. CA pecu-
liar failing of the Swedish people
here was that tehy were afraid we
wouldn't get enought to eat.) Then
a large swing was put up, this adding
fgreatly to our enjoyment.
Three o'clock was the set time fol
the afternoon session which was a
continuation of the morning B. Y,
P. U. conference. At the close OF
this meeting the body was organized
and officers elected as follows: Mr.
Whitlatch of Market Lake, president;
Mary Caps of Blackfoot, secretary;
Amo Sundquist o. West Firth, treas
urer. crs
After another bountiful supper,
came the last meeting, an evangelistie
service by Reverend w. r. Jewell
This, too, was a very helpful meeting
and many souls were turned.
All through the rally the West

Firth string band and choir and the

Firth string band and choir and the
Market Lake choir furnished music
which was very pleasing to everyone
who cares for music. The string
band has not been organized but a
short time, but 1t is rapidly growing.
The attendance at this rally was
good, there being an average of about
100 people at each meeting, but we
hope that many more will be present
at our next rally.

TRICK B|CyCL|STS
NARROWLY ESCAPE
DEATH FROM GAS
Vaudeville Performers Rem
dered Unconscious in
Hotel Early Today.

Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Leander,N trick
bicycle riders, narrowly escaped acci-
dental asphyxiation early today In their
room in De Alleys Hotel. 1922 Pennsyl-
vania avenue northwest.
shortly after 3 o'clock one of the
other guests was attracted by the odor
of escaping gas. and notified the pro-
prietor. The gas was traced to the
room occupied by the Leanders. and
the door was forced open. The two
were in bed unconscious.
Gas was flowing from q small heater.
which had been turned so low that the
flame had gone out, allowing a small
amount of gas to escape. Leander has
been suffering from a bad cold for
several days. and when he went to bed
last night took a big dose of quinine and
put on q heavy sweater. He had his
wife close the window and light the gas
stove SO that the room would be warm
all night.
Mrs. Leander. however. turned the
