HOLD UP HOSPITAL
 ON TECHNICALITY

Sometime ago this paper won dered editorially, as to just what was the cause of tie delay in the building of tue detention hospital at Fairbanks, for which congress had granted a small appropriation, as we'll as at Nome.
 We dimly understood that it had something to do with lack of funds 0 secure site for the proposed building, but we didn't know that Governor Clark was having g fit because Judge Overfeld and Mar Shal Love wanted to build the hos. pital on donated lot. Here is an account taken from the Nome h. dustlial Worker:
 Fairbanks is the scene, and the dramatis personae cf little farce are Judge Over6eld, Marshal Love and Governor Waltah Clarke, Iris tie detention house for which ap. r)priations were made both for tie inland metropolis and for Nome ia the last session of Congress. Vic kersham said he got 'em ap, proped but that's neither here nor there. A free site was offered but Waltah said that they'd no right to accept free sites. Overheld and Love, both lawyers, opined they did telegraphically to Clarke and Clarke wired back testify that the opinion he gave was not tte opinion of himself but a more weighty authority-haply Shackleford or Porter J. Fink. At any rate the Fairbanks people rose to point Of order and begged leave 10 ask a question through tie chair, it't wasn't fact that the federal jail. the courthouse building, eke the wireless station, were not built up. on free sites. And it was answered that they were. So the matter lies and the conscientious scruples of Clarke have negatived the good that might come from an appropria- ton. And Nome people have not opened their lips about their part of the program even though the ne- glect on tue part of the government has been the real cause of the un- fortunate suicide which occurred in he federal jail here last month.

Cincinnati, Jan. S.-Fourtecn men

lativc contest probe going on here,
have confessed that they received
money for voting from Cox organiza-
ton workers last election day one
dollar was the market price of votes.
Bought Cincinnati voters are not so
eager to confess as the corrupted Of
Adams county. The investigators
have been up against a campaign of
intimidation that has caused many
voters who sold out to change their
minds about tcstifying.
The contest was started by the Dem
ocratic legislative candidates who on
the face of the returns were defeated
last election. They are seeking to un-
seat the Republican legislators, charg-
ing election frauds.
In their notice of contest, the DEM
ocratic candidates charged that two
thousand Republican votes had been
bought.
Judge Frank German. who has just
taken charge Of the criminal court.
yesterday ordered the new grand jury
to investigate all charges of election
frauds that have been made. The men
who have confessed to selling their
votes will be called before the jury
and given immunity in exchange for
their testimony.
Prosecutor Hunt will seek to get at
the men higher up in the vote buying
hot only the men who personally
paid for the votes, but also those who
had charge OF the general funds. The
inquiry Will also cover the source OF
the Cox organizations campaign rev.
enue. Rud Hynicka, treasurer OF the
Cox organizations campaign funds,
will be called to testify and ordered
to produce the campaign lcdgers.

VALUABLE
CLUE SECURED
To the Remaining Anarch-

BY United Press wire.

London. Jan. 5-What is considered
n most valuable clue to the identity
and location of the remaining NOM
bers of the gang of anarchists that
infcst Londons East Side Received
Ivy the police today. A move against
the gang is hourly expected.
To avoid such a scene as that Of
Tuesday when 1900 policemen and
several hundred soldiers and hremen
fought for hours against a handful
of anarchists, the authorities today
engaged the services of an expert
pyrotechnist who will smoke out the
anarchists from their retreat, should
it be discovered.
The plan is to surround the house
of the anarchists and fire upon them
as they emerge if they show fight.
Hundreds of police and detectives
are still going through the suspect
ed quarters of the East Side. but the
anarchists are evidently under close
cover and no suspects were found.
Home Secretary Winston Churchill

cism for his conduct of the police

arriving i'm London show that all of

HOUSE STILL HOLDS
OUT AGAINST SUBSIDY
Rv United press Wire.

Washington, Jan. although the
administration has reduced it's shin
subsidy proposals to one bill doubling
the present mail subsidy of 81 per
ton on ships routed from United Stat
cs ports to South American ports
south of the equator it developed to-
day that the passage of the measure
by the house is extremely doubtful.
Considerable missionary work
has been done by President Taft with
opposing members of the house and
their half-heartcd promise to him to
study and consider the proposal does
not leave great hope for the success
of the bill.
-Four other questions will probably
take precedence of IT.; the tariff COM
mission; conservation, on which there
will be three bills; Panama canal for
tihcation and some measure for toll
regulation on canal tariff.
