provide enough affirmative votes
to pass the amendment with q
majority of about 1000, perhaps
better.
Returns from the outlying sec
tions are coming in slowly, but
each return cuts down the ma
jority. Suffrage leaders here de.
clare now that the majority for
the woman's ballot will run near
ly 5000. This stand is justified,
apparently, by the late returns
which show the rural vote In re-
mote districts to be evel more
strongly In favor of the amend
ment than was indicated by the
earlier returns and from a number
of isolated sections in the south
ern part of the state are still un-
available. 1t is doubtful II any
accurate estimate can be made
until tomorrow.
On the other % amendments to
the state constitution voted upon
figures have ceased to come in.
There is hardly doubt tnat all
have carried by record votes.

Since the passage of the eight

There has been lots of complaint

Hubbard has never worked

Business Agent Burns today.
"He was named by B. s. Gross

Hubbard was appointed from

Ever stop to get rear peep at
women's feet when they're seated
in restaurant or some other pub
lie place? Well, it's more fun
than council meeting. A Times
reporter tried 1t today.
Now, don't think for one soli-
tary moment that you can't see
the aforesaid feet. Why, some OF
them are wrapped around the front
legs of the chair!
Just take squint there. See
the pair of perfect "toe-ins"? A
little farther up there is pair of
''toe-outs." Some women don t
seem to have any feet at all, judg-
ing from the rear view. And yon-
der, in a corner, there's a poor
woman who seems to have but one
foot. She hasn't any crutches,
either. 1t surely can't be possible
that she's sitting on the other foot.
And did you ever snoop at la
dies heels? To be sure it's a low
thing to do. Anyhow, however
downward that path may be, you'll
be apt to get interested If you are
any observer at all.
Just watch some of the French
heels in front of you. 1t seems

2 ATTORNEYS
ARE ARRESTED

John A. Parker and Newton II.
Peer, two we'll known Tacoma
attorneys, were compelled to sub
NIT to arrest yesterday afternoon
upon warrants sent from Grant
county, east of the mountains,
charging them with the misde-
meanor of allowing Russian this
ties to grow on their land there.
Both men gave themselves up
when informed that warrants were
out for them and each gave 300
bond. They claim it is spite
work and will go over to fight the
case.
Russian thistle is pest to
farmers in Grant county and the
punishment for allowing 1t to
grow is a $3.50 fine and 30 days
in Jail.

like they're pretty uncertain ships
to navigate. A keen-eyed obser-
yer, who is responsible for the
present discourse on feet and
heels, boldly proclaims that not
one woman in a thousand can nav
igate the French heel successfully.
Let's see. There is a pair of
French heels. going up the street
now. The right heel jumps up
considerably higher than the left
at each step. 1t remains hesitat-
ingly in the air for second, which
is followed by sort of semi-cir-
cular sweep. Watch it descend.
The foot seems to be made of rub
ber. The heel reaches the pave
ment in sort of jerk, and from
all appearances it gets there just
ahead of the ankle. And the left
foot seems to miraculously escape
being stepped upon each time.
Take a look the next time. It's
great. You'll never look a woman
in the face if you get the habit
perhaps you went dare.

Guy E. Kelly, census supervisor,
indicted by the federal grand jury
for census padding.
is also in for it and will he tried
in the court here for conspiracy
to produce a fraudulent count
1t was expected Kelly would be
indicted If possible at this session,
for although he stoutly maintains
he is innocent of any wrongdoing z
there was general sentiment
that the enumerators who say
>they obeyed orders In thei' pad
ding should not be scapegoats for
the higher ups.
The indictment of Mckenzie,
however, is a distinct surprise.
He is in Washington, still con-
nected with the census bureau
and he will be apprehended and
placed under arrest on telegraphic
communication from here.
Mckenzie Checked Figures.
1t was Mckenzie who came here
To check up the figures of Kelly.
He hovered around the chamber
of commerce and a lot of stories
were told about him.
He was all praise for Tacoma
up until a certain point and then
of a sudden he switched. Then
his report went to Washiust
and the trouble started.

by night. ....'
Six Of the IA indictments re-

After Fredericks had given out
his statement, l went to Flint.
as Judge Gray retained by the
district attorney?" / asked.
"You will have to ask Judge
Gray that. Any statement /
might make would be wholly
guesswork."
Flint's office did not know
where Judge Gray was. / found
him in the office of the district
attorney with Fredericks.
He came into the corridor.
While | was asking my first ques-
tion, Fredericks opened the door.
Il shall have to see you for a mo-
ment Immediately, Judge" he
said.
Gray returned to the office. The
door was closed. There was a
transom open. Immediately this
was slammed shut. In a moment
Judge Gray came out.
"You will have to see me in my
office" he said. This Is not my
office" he added curtly.
"When will you be in your of.
fice?4
within twenty minutes"
l Waited at his office for twenty
minutes. l was told that
could not see him for several
| hours.
What Fredericks meant by his
statement will be seen more clear
ly In the trials progress. For
the present the following are sig
nificant facts.
First-Thc Merchants and Man
ufacturers' association of Los An
geles is openly and bitterly an enc
my of the working man. 1t is af-
filiatcd with the National Erec-
tors association. Ii is pledged to
the principal of "OPEN SHOP"
Second-ln June of 1910 Frank
r. Elint's law firm, representing
the Merchants and Manufacture
ers' association, pressed injunction
proceedings brought by the Llewel-
-lyn and other iron works here to
prevent picketing by union iron
workers who were out on strike.
.Third-Associated with Flint's
ihlh III VIC ihJuh't'oh tasts was
Earl Rogers, "a criminal lawyer,
also employed by the Merchants
and Manufacturers association
who later assisted i'm drawing a.
drastic anti-picketing ordinance
and who in Oct, 1910, directed
the grand jury investigation of
the destruction of the plant of the
Los Angeles Times from which
grew the present charges against
the Mcnamara brothers.
Fourth-On the eve of the trial
Flint says that his belief is that
Gray has been retained to assist in
the prosecution.
Fifth-Fredcricks the district
attorney, denies that any member
of Fiint's firm has been retained
by the state.
Sixth-The second member of
Flint's firm is found with Fred
ericks in the office of the district
attorney.
Fredericks may explain that he
meant that no member of the firm
has been Officially" employed by
the state.
The charge has repeatedly been
made that private interests arel
and will be engaged in the prose-
eution of the McNamaras with the
consent of the district attorneys
office.
The word "official" will hardly
alter their influence on the case.
