PICTURE TRUST
CONTEMPLATED

an What amounts to the forma-
ton of a moving-picture theater
trust is under way, according to
authentic statements made today.
With the coming of the Monta-
mara Festo and large crowds,
many of the moving picture thea
ter operatives, 1t is alleged, are
planning to mulct the public by
raising the price of admission to
10 cents. bid SIH I
At meeting last night, one
operative said he could not raise
the price without running his
business. The others offered to
make up the deficiency, and
threatened to put him out of
business.
Manager John Siefert of the
Circuit theater refused to join
the movement and intimated that
If the other houses raised to 10
cents that new Circuit theater
might be built.

goods from the Owl drug store.
Josephus Duncan was called

Chairman Coiner was given a
round of applause when he gave
a peace talk to the state COM
mittee yesterday morning and the
progressives felt hopeful.
But at that very moment, Coin
er's chief lieutenant, Tom Fisk
OF Mason. was debating to a
stenographer Coiner's resolution
giving him absolute power to use
Taft steamroller.
Charles f. Kayser of Klickitat
gave 1t dead away that the Taft
committeeman had framed the
disposition of all contests on Mon

forgetfulness he asked .Coiner,

Judge Chapman's court this
morning. the leading roles being
played by Henry Baumback and
John Stephenson of Sales Station,

John and Henry had trouble

He thought 1t good joke, and
used to keep John cooped up in
his office, shaking with fear.
Even in his office John was
scared to death that Henry might

Conner Given More Power
Than Convention Itself

with power" as Committeeman
Corbele of Spokane expressed 1t.
the state central committee by a
vote of 81 to 8 yesterday after
noon vested in State Chairman
Beverly w. Coiner every power
usually delegated to state conven-
tions with the possible exception
of actually naming the delegates
to the national convention.
Never in the history of this
state has a single individual been
given such arbitrary, unqualified
and Unreserved powers. BY a
resolution sprung less than an
hour after a joint peace confer
ence with the progressives, ar
ranged by Gov. Hay, Coiner was
given unlimited power to run the
convention called for this morn
ing. Five pages of typewritten
matter cover all the powers vested
in him.
Coiner Fires Snyder.
Coiner accordingly at once re-
moved Edgar c. Snyder of Seat
tie, progressive, as secretary of
the committee and appointed Geo.
+. Breslin of Skamania, Taft man,
in his place.
The resolution empowered
Coiner to appoint a committee of
three to seat all delegates to take
charge of the convention hall and
to remove anyone they wanted.
While it was not unexpected
that the pro-Taft state committee
would favor contested Taft dele
gates, the "steamroller' resolu-
ton surpassed in audaciousness
even the widest expectations of
the Observation-Disclosures dele
gates.
PauIhamus Sarcastic.
II admire your nerve" said
Senator w. H Paulhamus, ad-
dressing himself apparently to
Chairman Coiner. 1t was all that
Paulhamus could say for mo-
ment. The namid a tense silence
he added: 81 recognize that you
are the majority IN this body.
But you overlooked one thing in
this resdution-you forgot to
make the Aberdeen chief of police
a member of your committee OF
three"
while I am appalled, at the
nerve of this committee" said O.
G.. Moore of Spokane. 81 cannot
say that your work is clever, or
shows any finesse. 1t is coarse,
rough work. You are afraid to
let those who have been regularly
elected hold their convention"
c""How will the wording of this
resolution" asked Committeeman
Corbe. grating dictatorial pow
crs to one man, read to the peo-
pie to whom you must come after
all in the final election? These
words are bound to come back
and fly and hit you in the face. !"
Hear From People.
There Is no argument, how
ever adequate, that can have any
weight with this committee" said
e. c. Snyder. 1.-THE plain truth
Is that they're blind to what is
going on in the state and nation.
These rules are widening the po-
litical grave yawning for them"
The committee thereupon calm
ly proceeded to "steamroller" the
progressive delegates, deliberately
inviting a split In the party and
the holding of two conventions.
The progressives caucused last
night as to the plans for today,
while two blocks away Coiner was
busy distributing to Taft dele
gates the cards emitting them to
admission into the convention
hall, without which the special
yards were instructed positively
to refuse anyone admission.

STENOCRAPHIc SPEED

In consequence of having received
Dore, of the Chehalis Reporting Com
pany, has decided to hold short hand
speed classes, upon evenings to be
arranged, for limited number of
students who desire to become prof.
cient, correct and speedy. The class
will be limited to some six or eight
members in order that each may re-
ceive thorough personal attention and
instruction. Mr.. Dore would be pleas
ed to hear from any one who would
care to avail himself or herself of
this opportunity. Selected readings
will be given at various rates of
speed from standard authors, court
decisions, legal trials, and when a
student has attained certain degree
Iof speed and transcribed the notes
taken at that speed correctly, a GER
!tificate will be given to that effect.
1t has occurred to Mr.. Dore that
such class will supply a long felt
want as there seems to be a neces-
sary step between the business col
lege and the office, legal or otherwise.
If intending students will call or write
to Mr.. Dore at 534 Finch Bldg, Alb
erdeen, evenings will be arranged to
suit their convenience. Mr.. Dore is
court reporter of many years ex-
perience. If desired, dictation will
also be given direct to the typewrit-
err, and students will also be instruct
ed in the use of the business phono-
graph in connection with commercial
and legal work.
