NOTICED ON THE COAST

Speaking of the plans to get Secre-
tary Lane and Secretary Daniels here
this summer, the San Francisco Chron-
icle says:
Plans are under way to attempt to
induce Secretary of the Navy Josepllus
Daniels to pay visit to the territory
of Hawaii during his contemplated
trip west in July. 1t is believed that
the secretary should secure first-hand
Information of the naval conditions in

ing prepared to be forwarded to Sec

ing made by the Star-Bulletin and 1t

CHICAGO, March 7.-Franklin Mac

der President Taft, may be summoned
before the special federal grand jury
in Chicago probing alleged frauds by
makers of oleomargarine. The prose

mend the acceptance of a 100000
compromise in tax frauds totalling
$1,000, 900. The special grand jury will
probe the entire alleged frauds in the

would go further than the grand jury
that previously investigated the mat

colored their product but to have paid
tax on it as uncolored.

ENUM: RATING WORK
WILL START SOON
County Auditor Has Sent Out
Instructions to
Trustees.

The work of enumerating the vot-
ers of the county will be started as
soon as possible, according TO County
Auditor Bowman who has sent out the
instructions to the trustees OF the
county.
The duties OF the trustees were emu
merated in the papers sent to them.
The redistricting of the state will be
made this year after the voters have
been enumerated. The bill providing
that the male inhabitants of the state
should be enumerated every six years
was approved in 1866 and has been in
force since.
At the last enumeration one county
was lost by this district because of the
increase in the population. The pur-
pose of the enumeration is to redistrict
the state in senatorial and representa-
tive districts. According to the local
officials it is expected that changes
will be made though a county will not
be lost.
The citizens Of Richmond will not
have to register this coming year as
was expected. The law only holds
that registration is necessary in cities
of the first and second class.

Street Commissioner SAYS 1t
Is Necessary to Keep

Street Commissioner Gem, while ex-
cavating for the sewer at Liberty Ave
nue. and South l. street struck a large
wall of Guicksand which is endanger-
ing the lives of the men working on
the excavation to such an extent that
it is necessary for some to be on
watch at all times to see that the men
are warned when a slide of the treach-
erous sand starts. Mr.. Gem stated
that several of the men have had mar
row escapes when large slide of the
sand took place very suddenly and in
the noise the men failed to hear the
warning cry of the Waterman until it
had been repeated several times.
The sand is in the form of a wall
and is apparently as firm as a cement
wall, Commissioner Gem asserts. At
times, however, large blocks of the
more and seeming to be cut from the
main body of the send, creeps slowly
out of the wall and falls with a crash
below where the men are WORKING.
Commissioner Gem described the
start of one of the miniature avalan-
ches. He stated that at times while
looking at the solid wall, small crack
can be seen to open. This crack rapid
ly spreads in the form of a spider
web. Then suddenly the entire mass
of sand seems to be forcibly showed
from it's resting place. Then men are
warned as soon as the first signs are
noticed and it is necessary for them
to run in order to escape
