MUST PAY BILLS

This rule adopted in Denver would
be a good one for some other state
and city Institutions. The Denver
Times says:
The city will no longer give pro-
lection to employees who fail to pay
their just debts. IL Auditor James
F. Markey has his way. The first act
of Mr. Markey's administration was
TO have a talk with his employees. in
which he put his foot down on the
practice OF assigning salaries at city
hall in order to avoid garnishments.
II intend to protect the business
men Of Denver against employees who
will not pay just obligations he said
today. There will be an end to such
things as this" he declared. waving
a bundle of rs assignments. running
up into the hundreds OF dollars. which
had come into his possession. "on
the other hand. OF course. employees
will be protected from persecution. "
Mr.. Markey also laid down a rule
that no empioye should receive gifts
. Of any nature. especially In the H.
cense department. and that all visitors
to his office should be treated with
politeness. regardless OF their polit
ical affiliations

GULFPORT NEGROES
WANT Lower RATES
Law Breakers Think in Organizing
They Can Get Legal Talent
Cheaper

Jackson, Miss. March 20-A unique
story comes from Gulfport to the eff
feet that negroes at that place who are
more or less familiar figures in the
police court have formed an associa-
ton the purpose of which is to en-
ploy counsel to represent their mem
bers when charged with crime or mis-
demeanors.
The incentive of the organization, it
is claimed, is the excessive charges of
several members of the Gulfport bar
for professional services, and the
police court habitues have simply con
cluded that, by clubbing together, they
can get bargain counter prices on le
gal talent.
AS the employment of counsel by
this association pre-supposes the inten
tion or at least, the likelihood of its
members committing various crimes
and misdemeanors, the Gulfport po
lice department will doubtless make
vigorous effort to secure a copy o.
the membership list.

LA Toilette Wins
IN FIRST PRIMARY
Battling Bob Kicks the Big Noise
Hat all Aroun' in North
Dakota.

Fargo, n. D., March Ex-senator
Robert M. La Toilette yesterday car
ried the presidential preferential pri-
maries in North Dakota over Theo-
dore Roosevelt and President Taft.
Frank Talcott, chairman of the Re-
publican State committee, and John
F. Bass manager of the Roosevelt
campaign in this state, notified
Senator Joseph M. Dixon at Wash
ngton late last night that, in their
opinion, Senator La Toilette has car
ried the primaries. Neither made a
prediction as to La Follette's plurality
This decision was reached by the
Roosevelt managers after nearly com
plete returns had been received from
eighteen of the forty-nine counties in
the state. The Roosevelt men con
ceded ten of these counties to La Fol
lette outright, listed two others as
about even, and claimed six counties
for their candidate.
With these figures as a basis, it was
decided that there were not enough
Roosevelt votes on the Western slope
to balance the heavy poll for La Fol
lette in the Eastern portion of the
state.
Even in some portions of the Goa
country La Toilette ran even or better
Roosevelt carried Medora, his former
home, twenty to thirteen.
Leaders of the La Toilette move
ment sent a telegram to Senator Ia
Toilette aboard a train, on his way
from North Dakota to Washington
saying he had won by from $4,000 tC
! 10000 votes.
President Taft did not figure promi
nently in the contest.
Because of the difficulty in getting
accurate complete returns from many
isolated quarters of the state, it i!
doubtful if the total vote in all of the
1900 precincts will be known until lat'
today.
