Seattle, Wash, Oct. 1.-Forty-one
persons are now in Jail here, mostly
voluntarily, because of signing reso-
luton defying Superior Judge John
E. HUMPHREYS anti-street speaking in
junction.
"Four deputy sheriffs are here now
to take you to JAIL" announced an
orator at a Socialist mass meeting
last night. "Any who signed the reso-
luton may come forward and be ar
rested. Those who desire may wait
until tomorrow"
Several responded to the invitation,
and were followed to the Jail by so
large a crowd that the deputies be-
came confused
"Those who were arrested please
step inside" said one of the officers
finally, and nine persons went in and
were locked up.
A man and woman, with two babies,
who said they were going to Jail,
could not get themselves arrested.
"You beat it home," ordered an Of
ficer, showing them out of line. ave

IL tho selling conditions can be made
be easier for all.
Quality and price arc the two main
factors that will determine the per-
manent stability OF motor trucks;
hence the manufactured might better
put expense into quality in the first
place than TO pay il out for free re-
pairs over long period under a So
called liberal guarantees. Free repairs
do not insure satisfaction of the pur-
chaser or lead to recorders.
Besides increasing the difficulties and
cost of making sales, the lack of uni
formity in guarantee cultivates Il ten
dency on the part of the truck user
To make unwarranted demands upon
the manufacturers. For instance, a
user who has bought one truck under
a three year guarantee will he likely
TO expect the maker of some other
truck in his service to make replace
ments for Il like period, overlooking
the fact that probably the proportion
of manufacturing cost to selling price
is higher in the second truck than in
the first.

WATER AT SALTAIR
RIGHT FOR BATHING

That Salt Jakers are hard to con.
vince of anything out of the ordinary
IS the opinion of Joseph Nelson, gen
eral manager of Saltair Beach, who
states that be is having difficulty in
convincing Salt Lakers that the bath
ing season at Ssltair has actually be-
gun and that the water is warm enough
for comfortable bathing Last year,
owing TO the unfavorable weather con.
ditions, the water did not warm uy
enough for comfortable bathing until
nearly the first of July. and it was not
until then that the temperature of the
water reached rs degrees, This wear
the temperature reached that point a
week ago, and yesterday it was off.
cially taken as being 70 degrees AS
so degrees is practically as high as the
water gets during the summer season,
1t can be seen that the bathing season
is actually on, and there need be no
hesitation on the part Of those who
enjoy bathing.
With the various features of the
summer season we'll under way, all CON
ditions favorable, it is believed that
this will be the most successful season
IN the history of the resort.
