sumo great proportions? That
question is being discussed here

A Mexican multi-millionaire, on

insurrectos keep winning?" He
replied:
"On December % was in Mex

What will cure the trouble?"

discuss his anti-treating, early
closing and disorderly ordinances
this morning after they had
thrown out five 1usty reporters

tee of Slayden and a friend of the
saloons.
The minutes were all the report
ers got to hear today, however.
They were no sooner read than
Rev. e. G. Wheeler raised the
point that several argus-eyed de-
mons of the pencil fraternity were
present.
Rev. Mr.. Elliott said the re-
porters had no right to be there
at all.
MIR. Matthews jumped up and
raised the point Of order that the
reporters had not left and so moth
ing could be done until they de-
parted. The five and the short
hand man arose and went out
and the preachers breathed freely
once more and got down to busi-
