THAT BURDICk

Now. however, Burdick is as
Stunning that the provision does
not apply and that If he resigns
from the civil service board be-
fore he takes his seat in case he
should be elected, that will be
time enough.
Judge Stiles refused to be
drawn into a controversy as to
Burdick's eligibility to a place on
the ballot this morning, but he
said there was no question that
Burdick was an officer of the
city. And his former statement
on eligibility" was to the effect
that a man was not eligible to run
for an office unless he was eligi-

This is bossism and fractional rule gone to seed
The membership of the New Movement
League has simply been sold out by the self-ap-
pointed Committee of Ten. The committee has
violated its pledge not to use its prestige to in
fuence the vote. 1t has violated its pledge to
have the count of the ballots Open 1t has given
away its hand and shown itself to be simply
political faction with an AK to grind instead of
movement for good government as it sought to
impress on the members who have been led in
to the net by it's false representations.
The fact that the Committee of Ten endorsed
two candidates for each commissionership, but
only one for mayor, shows that the commits
sionership endorsement was simply grandstand.
They picked candidates that looked as if they
were popular to deceive the rank and file that
they were going down the line all the way.
But the real purpose of the committee was to
boost Burdick.

to try to get some one that can get up such an

end his life. Mrs. Nixon was
worried last night over the disap-
pearance of her husband, and
knew nothing about his having

Nixon lay with his head

preparations for his death, even
to the purchase of 10 cents worth

bedroom in the house Of Mrs. B..

nights ago. He had not occupied
the room until last night. but had
paid his rent for week In adj

Detectives Frank Geary and

LOS ANGELES, CAL, March IS
The love tragedy of beautiful
Mrs. Paul Engstrum, whose mar
rage TO the son of a millionaire
contractor of this city resulted,
last year, i'm separation and di-
vOrce suit of the young woman's
mother, Mrs. Frank Davey, of
Palo Alto, CAL, recently.
Mrs. Davey who is suing her
husband. photographer. for di-
vorce on grounds of cruelty,
charging that he forced their 20
year-old daughter into a marriage
for money with Paul Engstrum.
She claims that she bitterly op-
posed this marriage.
Engstrum, who sued his wife
for divorce nine months ago, fol-
lowing a sensational episode in an
apartment house here, declares
that his mother-in-law, Mrs. Da-
vey, is a "vindictive cat" as he
had never met her or her husband
when he married the daughter
and states that they had nothing
to say about the match, either for
or against it.
Mrs. Davey made the Following
statement:
THE chief trouble between
Mr.. Davey and me arose through
his cruelty in forcing our daugh-
ter, then 20, to marry Paul Eng
strum.
II opposed the match because
l considered young Engstrum
and his social set too speedy.
81 could not make my husband
agree with me, and he insisted
on the marriage. 1t has brought
only heartaches and woe to my
daughter, and has been a specter
that has haunted our home ever
since. 1t has precipitated bitter
quarrels between my husband
and me, since Dorothy has had
SO much matrimonial trouble. I
have always maintained that her
experience proved / was right In
Directing to the marriage, and
this angered Mr.. Davey."

other campaign as was made for Seymour to
"beat Fawcett."
Ever since the present campaign first began to
be talked about schemers have been busy trying
to find some one whom they thought might get
up another campaign to "beat Eawcett.' The
same people who engineered the scheme to bring
Seymour out three years ago put Burdick in the
race and the Committee of Ten has endeavored
to line up the New Movement League in the
game.
For high handed political trickery and mis-
representation there has not been anything SO
raw in years in Tacoma as this action Of the
Committee Of Ten in view Of the representations
made by it in securing it's membership in the
New Movement League.
How many members there are no one outside
of the Committee of Ten knows.
Statements vary all the way from 1900 to A.
$50. The former figure is probably nearer the
correct one

next play of this Tricky Ten.

THE CITY CHARTER.


Section 11-No person shall be
eligible to any elective office of
the city while holding any other
office under the city government,
or any office or employment In
the state, county or school govern
ment, or In the park commission.
The foregoing section of the
city charter has arisen to plague
II. p. Burdick, candidate for
mayor.
The charter commission placed
It in the charter to prevent the
old party of the politicians under
the old regime getting in the city
hall and running for office and
campaigning at the expense of the
people and making close political
ring in the city.
The question was much dis
cussed at the time Of the first
election.
Judge Stiles then said that
there was no question that can
didates would not be eligible to
get on the ballot unless they re-
signed before filing their candi-
dacy.

TRY To
SEND NEGRO
TO Pen

Deputy Prosecutor w. ID. Ask
rem today took personal
charge of the case OF William
Highgate, colored, who was
captured Saturday morning by the
police after he had drugeed Miss
Belle Marsden and kept her pris-
oner for three days and nights in
a Tacoma avenue hotel. Serious
statutory charges will be filed
against the negro direct in the
superior court, and every at
tempt will be made to send him
to the penitentiary, according to
the prosecutor.
Miss Marsden has been re-
moved to the county hospital.
She was completely delirious Sat
urday night and Sunday. Today
the hospital authorities reported
that she was slowly recovering
her senses, as the effects of the
powerful drugs wore off, and
that she would be in full health
again at the end of the week. The
girl says that her father lives In
California, but refuses to talk
about herself.

smacked SO of fraud on its face

nounced the whole scheme AZ q
peurile and fraudulent attempt Of
the committee to defeat . true
referendum.
Apparently the committee has
done as 1t pleased, however, for
the letters are going out with
more than one ballot. A reporter
saw at least two letters today in
which there were more than one
ballot. There may have been let
ters to the men who are on the
favor list of the Committee Of Ten
who got more than two, possibly
ten or 1000 for all that n known.
At all events 1t is positive that
the ballot is to be padded.
Today the streets are full OF
New Movement league members
who say they have repudiated the
thing. Some declare they Will not
vote at all. Others say they will
pay no attention to the results OF
the referendum no matter what

the result.

TIERS BEFORE LERDO, March
28.-The battle of Torreon is on.
Before closing in on the town
of Torreon itself it was necessary
to take the suburbs. This the
rebels are doing rapidly. At midi
night the combined armies of
Generals Urbana, Hernandez and
Rodriguez, 5000 strong, attacked
IIerdo, six miles from TOrreOn,
under General Villas direction.
Into 1t heavy artillery fire was di.
rected. simultaneously the COM
bined forces of Generals Ortega,
Garcia and Pereyra, numbering
1000, were opened on the SUI
burb of Gomez-PalaciO, four miles
from TOrreon. Both assaults
were extraordinarily fierce and
the losses were heavy.

IS CHARGED AGAINST The
new MOVEMENT LEAGUE

Not content with trying to
bamboOzle the card signers of
the New Movement league into
supporting Burdick by their en-
dorsement, the Committee of Ten
apparently is bent ON stuffing. the
ballot box.
Members this morning exhibit
ed the letters sent to them, and
