Sheriff Moore an the Guthrie Jail.

Fort Worth, Texas. June s.-Right
in the heart Of the Texas bad" lands
has been found at last, the thorough
~ moral town. 1t is Guthrie, in Kings
county. and for three years past not
a Kings county prisoner has darken-
ed the doors Of its jail. The locks
and keys Of Guthrie's bastile are rust
ing. The sheriff, G. w. Moore, and
his family are Its only occupants. His
chief duty is, o to track the willy
criminal to his lair. but to keep the
jail from falling into complete decay.
Guthrie has no county attorney; in
fact. no attorney at all. Also. 1t has
no newspaper. Ranters at civilization
say this explains why there Ia no
crime. Be that az 1t may, the people
Of that community are law abiding.
They often get hilarious; they v
get criminal.
Once in q while other sheriffs pass
ing through the county with prisoners
stop owe night at Guthrie and then
the Jail has an occupant. but he's not
of Kings county. This IL always
big event In Guthrie. and Is town talk
for several days.

In the complaint against j. r. Grant
q Co, as a corporation, and j. r. Grant
individually, the specific charge is that
they sold 80 can of "potted turkey Ad.
vance brand" on April 81.
The Seattle and Puget Sound Pack
ing company, Monroe Lewis and viii.
liam Lewis, its officers, are accused of
selling 20 cans of maryland crab meat
flakes"
All the cases were set by Justice
Brown today for preliminary hearing
Monday, August 4.
Complaints that canned goods not
packed in accordance with the pure
food low were being sold at reduced
prices have been filed with the city
health officials with increasing fre-
quency The first were made in Janu.
ary when it was charged that firms
having stalls in one of the public mar.
kets were offering for sale cocoa which
was mostly part corn starch. At that
time the city officials were not sure
how to proceed.
Later came reports that crab meat
canned before the pure food act was
put in force was being sold and that
some of the cans were so old that the
meat was badly discolored.
An investigation was started which
came to head this week after the
shipment of meat from the east had ar.
rived.

SAYS UNDERWOOD TARIFF
BILL WILL BE RUINoUs
UNITED PRESS LEASED WINE

UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE.
Washington, Aug. Discussion Of
an alleged impending panic and pre-
'diction of the extinction of the wool
and sheep industry if the Underwood
tariff bill is passed by congress was
voiced in the senate today by Senator
Catron of New Mexico.
"Only law allowing the, issuance
of $5OO,OOO,OOO in emergency curren.
cy," Catron declared, "will prevent
the worst features of the panic from
which we suffered in 1904 and 1905 if
this bill is enacted.
"It will mean the destruction of
great industries, throw hundreds of
thousands of men out of work and re.
suit in as serious condition as can be
imagined. Nothing can prevent mon.
ey stringency if the bill is passed.
cit is safe to say that 100000 EN-.
ployes in the sheep raising industry
and three-quarters of the 10000 EN-.
polyes of wool manufactures will be
discharged if the measure is enacted
into law"

MAYOR WILL Be HERE
UNTIL MONDAY, ANYWAY
Possibly That He win Decide to Call
Off His Eastern Trip Altogeth.
er, He Admits.

Mayor B. L. Sleeves will be in Salem
until after the council meeting Mon
day, at least before starting on an
Eastern trip to take a special course of
study, and it is possible that the trip
may be called off The mayor proposes
to straighteu out matters before leaving
Salem again, and It is known that he is
disgruntled over the treatment accord
ed Rigdou ousting him as acting
mayor. Mayor Sleeves regards the ac-
tion of the council as a direct slap at
him, and attributes it to soreness over
his veto of the ordinance abolishing the
office of police matron.
That the mayor is right in his conten'
tion is believed by those who claim to
know the facts. They assert that the
unhorsing Of Rigdon was engineered by
Turner. with Hatch as chief assistant.
The return Of the mayor to Salem re-
duced siegmund to the ranks, and the
mayor may be able to line up the re-
caleitrant members before long.
