HOW CAN HURLBUT STOP
CASINO SALE OF WHISKY =?
Commissioner is Stumped-
Maybe You Can Help Him
Lend Him Your Suggestion

Aldermen who learned by reading
The Times. Thursday night, that Pau.
Kobe. lessee OF the Belle Isle casino,
is violating the terms OF the contract
granted him by the council, IN selling
whisky, are emphatic IN their state
ments that Kobe will have 10 stop
the practice The initiative in the
matter, however. is up 10 Park Com
missioner Hurlbut, as head OF the de-
partment. and Hurlbut states that he
is helpless.
Il shall see Kobe when go over
TO the island again and tell him TO
stop il If he is selling whisky said
Mr.. Hurlbut.
Why didn't you investigate the re-
ports brought 10 you that whisky Was
being sold?" he was asked
Mr.. Hurlbut fidgeted in his chair
and said
Say. just think of the trouble the
police department has in getting evil
dence and in enforcing the saloon
laws. They have TO keep after the
saloons for months, he said
And they have nearly 1900 saloons
70 look after" was suggested.
That's true, too, he replied,
bur that gang over there know all
us fellows. We couldn't send any OF
our men over there and have them
buy whisky. Anyway, since The
Times printed that story ! suppose
Kobe has stopped selling whisky.
The only way think the city will
ever be able 70 run the place satisfac.
torily would be 10 hire men TO run IL,
make IL regular department and pro
hibit the sale Of all liquors except
beer"
by the time we made a complaint
against Kobe and took it into the
courts IL would be fall and as Kolbe's
contract expires next spring he
wouldn't care if he was fired out this
winter" said Secretary Busch. Per
haps he would be glad OF IT.
II shall take the matter up with
Mr.. Hurlbut before doing anything in
the council" said Aid. John Thomp-
son. chairman OF the council commit
tee on parks and boulevards. IF
there Is any evidence that Kobe has
been selling whisky and If Commits
sioner Hurlbut does not take action
will have the matter investigated by
the council. The practice must be
stopped
Il don't see why the park commits
sioner doesn't get after Kolbe,' said
Aid. George II. Ellis 1T is true the
council made the cQptract, as recon-
mended by Mr.. Hurlbut. but II is up
70 him to do his best 10 enforce II"
Kobe denied, Friday, that whisky
was sold in the casino. though his an
swers were made In a jeering way
which denoted that Kobe was at
loss for an explanation.
Are you in charge of the walters,
he was asked.
Yes"
Don't you know they serve
whisky"
NO"
Gould they sell it without your
knowledge"
No"
1t was little game OF tag and there
was no beating Kobe.

spring, and the problem will be to
recognize the difference between the
moment when little more fighting
may turn the day, and tho moment
when bolt will become a political
necessity.
A rollcall will be started on the nom
ination itself. Before that rollcall has
been half finished one of two things
will be made clear-either that the
Roosevelt people still have a fighting
chance or that the steamroller of the
national committee has been apPro"
priated to the uses Of the convention
itself.
If it is apparent that the Roosevelt
people have a fighting chance, they
will stick and fight. If it is apparent
that they are hopelessly beaten, that
rollcall will never be finished with
Roosevelt delegates in the hall
every move; either in person or through
the eyes Of his lieutenants.
Signal for Bolt.
The signal for the bolt will come
first from Roosevelt. 1t will be con-
veyed from him to his delegates by
his floor leaders, and at the signal
there will be a simultaneous uprising,
and somewhere near half the seats Of
delegates at the Coliseum will be va
Gated.
Roosevelt spent four hours in his
private rooms of. the Congress hotel
with all of his leaders tonight, and
every detail of the days programme
was gone over again and again; Every
possible turn of affairs was calculated
in advance, and every move was
mapped out.
The possible combinations On the
chess board Of politics were studied by
masters Of the game. and when it was
all over Theodore Roosevelt emerged
smiling from the conference with the
air of the player who thinks he can
look just move or two farther into
the intricacies OF the future than his
opponent can.

PRAYER Delivered at

of Father j. +. Callaghan of st.

at the opening Of the convention
was as follows:
"In the name of the Father, and
Of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost,
ooh Almighty Eternal, and All
Wise God, direct all our actions by
thy holy inspiration, 30 that every
prayer and every work of ours may
always begin from thee, and by thee
be happily ended, through Jesus

pray.

give us our trespasses as we forgive

Barnes Optimistic.

Mr.. Barnes had this to say:
The result Of the convention is con-
elusive proof OF two things: First.
that this convention Is In no sense
a Roosevelt convention. and, second,
that even the vote that was given
for Mr. McGovern does not repre-
sent by a large number Of votes the
Roosevelt strength In the conven-
ton.
Mr.. Taft's strength In this conveu-
ton is not represented by the vote
for Senator Root. because. In my
judgment. Taft's vote will exceed
that given on the temporary chair
man vote.
Mr.. Taft represents in this contest
the main issue of constitutional gov
ernment, which Senator Root SO ably
eXpounded in his mastery address
No Republican convention has ever
been so near violating the spirit and
meaning OF Republicanism as has this,
but fortunately the danger is now
passed, and as the next few days
succeed one after the other the empti-
ness OF the third-terrn candidacy VIII
become clearly apparent.
I regret that a few delegates from
the state Df New York have failed
TO comprehend their patriotic duty
and through the lure Of possible DO
ltical advancement have risrepre-
sented the backbone Of the Republi-
can constituencies which they were
elected to represent.
