ABATE NUISANCE
By NORA GILLESPIE.

That dogs, cats, weeds, bumps II
streets and all like nuisances must he
abated at once, or the owners arrest
ed was declaaed by the commissioners
today. Commissioner Scanlon declar-
ed that if necessary special police
man would be appointed who would
have charge Of each nuisance.-Ad-
vertiSer.
AS mother and housewife | can
name several nuisances worse than
the above. First is the habit Of auto
mobile and motorcycle owners have
OF making a speedway of Sixth ave,
especially between 18th and Goth ST.,
where the avenue is so narrow.
Almost every house in those two
squares has one or more small child
rem in it yet the avenue is made into
q race track for people who do not
live anywhere near this workingclaSs
district. One evening recently three
motorcycles abreat swept up Sixth
ave. in a blue streak. There would
have been no chance for a child to
escape.
Second. We are not allowed to burn
our papers and trash, and the GARBAGE
Incn only come up here every two or
three weeks. A woman suggested to
me yesterday that the commissioners
expected us 10 eat it.
Third the bumps in the streets 90
not bother us and if they jolt the
automobile owners too much let them
take pick Qnd shovel and fix them.
Fourth if they would search for the
owners Of the weedy lots they would
find that they were the very people
who complain about other things.
Fifth d friend Of mine was almost
run down by an automobile going s.
miles all hour. He got the number
of the auto, but because he did not
know the name of the people in ii the
chief of police and the mayor refused
to issue a warrant for them Ic!
they arrested a working man and
sent him to jail for ten days riding IL
fast. Some Of US are getting fearfulIy
tired of such discrimination.

Socialism means that no man shall
have wealth who does not actually
earn it. No wonder those who fleece
the workers of their earnings say,
Socialism would destroy incentive.
1t certainly would destroy the incen-
tive to rob and graft.

by DR.. David Starr Jordan, president
of Leland Stanford university. DR..
JORDAN has been delivering a series
Of lectures in the northwest on the

his subject this morning "War and
Manhood" and he showed thai the

age. a%lertness, dash and recklessness,
who value their lives as naught in the
service of the country. The men who
are left are the reverse of all this,
the speaker declared, and 1t is they

speaker. His address was an earnest
appeal against war and the audience
was deeply interested throughout the
talk.
DR.. Jordan left this noon for Mime

address tomorrow. Last Thursday he
