Pre- VENTION
DAY PROCLAIM
BY MAYOR
PERSONS ARE CAUTIONED
AGAINST CONTRIBUTING TO
SPREAD OF FLAMES, AND
SUGGESTIONS ARE OFFERED.

With the first breath of winter,
CRATE fires follow, and, all statistics
show, the largest percentage Of fires
are started from preventable causes.
In line with movement which is
countrywide, and which was for it's
object the prevention of fires, Mayor
Greenhut yesterday issued procla-
nation, in which suggestions were
offered having for their purpose the
lessening of fires with the beginning
of the winter time. In the said proc
lamation, hint is also thrown out
respecting drills in the public schools.
The document yesterday issued at the
mayors Office, however, was as fol-
lows:
The Mayors Proclamation.
Whereas the Safety First Fedora
ton of America has designated Octo-
Der 8, 1915, as Fire Prevention Day
in the United States; and
Whereas, it is claimed that more
than sixty per cent. of all fires which
occur start from preventable causes
Now, therefore, I, A. Greenhut,
Mayor of the City of Pensacola, do
hereby designate Saturday, October
0, 1915, as Fire Prevention Day and
urge upon all citizens that on said
day they make careful inspection
Of their premises with the view to
having removed all accumulations Of
rubbish and other debris of an igni-
table and dangerous character; that
all hose and other fire fighting appli-
ances in hotels and public buildings
be carefully inspected and made
ready for use, and that chimneys in
dwelling houses be inspected and
cleaned, and that all reasonable pre-
cautions be taken against the start
ing and spread of fires. ] further
recommend that fire drills be insti
tuted and regularly practiced in oul
public schools and that the pupils
be occasionally taught by theil
teachers the principles Of fire pre-
vention.

MANDAMUS SOUGHT
TO TEST QUESTION
DEPOT ORDINANCE
NJ. NJ. BIRD, WHO SUBMITTED
TO ARREST, swoRE OUT SUCH
WRIT AND SAME WAS AR
GUED, BUT UNDECIDED.

Defending q second nandamus
proceeding within a week has kept
the city attorney rather busy thus
far, for, in addition to his other
numerous duties, he was yesterday
called upon to appear in the second
Of such writs.
The first of the week the city was
called upon to defend itself in a
mandamus proceeding brought by
Brown, who sought to prevent the
city from turning down his offer to
do certain contract work for the
city. This action, brought last week,
was argued a couple of days ago,
and was decided in favor of the city.
The garbage contract was the bone
of contention in this case, and Brown
represented that, his bid being the
lowest, and also the best, that he
was entitled to the contract. The
case was decided against him after
Judge Monroe, of the court of
record, had listened patiently to the
presentation of each side Of the
question.
The second mandamuE proceeding
was that of yesterday when NJ. M.
Bird, manager of the City Transfer
Company, brought up the question in
this shape, as a test of the new de-
pot ordinance, and to test out those
sections which forbid the soliciting
of baggage, etc, on the platform Of
the depot. There was no disposition
to crowd into the ranks of incoming
passengers, it is asserted, but to re-
main at certain point where the
passengers could be reached salts
factorily. The presence Of the taxi
and baggage men is objected to by
the terms of the said ordinance and
the measure seeks to keep the solicit
tors for this sort of business some
distance away This was one of the
rights which the men affected think
was not altogether fair, and they
also believed that it was not gooc
Ilaw, hence 4fe test before Judge
Kirke Monroe, in the court of record
yesterday.
Judge Garter appeared for tn,
| transfer people, while City At
torney Jones represented the city
interests. Bird, it will be remembered
was arrested as first step in thi
proceeding, and the mandamus fol
lowed as matter of course. Thi
was argued at length in the court o
record, but was undecided last night
Decision will probably be announce
some time today.
Mr.. Bird. who figured in the case
wants the public to know that he ha
no disposition to violate any city OF
dinance; that he is a law-abidin
citizen, and has always been. Fl
secured the concession and the exclu
sive privilege of the baggage cor
tract by competitive bid, and tn
question appears to have bee
whether or not the L. & N. railroa
company can allow the privilege thu
let by contract and competitive biz

A four-pig team, deliberately har-
messed and hitched to a specially de-
signed wagon and driven at the San
Francisco fair, will put Cottonwood
on the map as the hog center of the
northwest if the plans of Arthur
Brissett are carried to completion.
Mr.. Brissett won wide reputation
for Cottonwood two years ago when
he visited the fairs of eastern Wash
ington and northern Idaho with two
pig team that he had trained to drive
to a wagon. He is now engaged in
training four pigs for the San Fran
cisco exhibition and will be a feature
about the grounds occupied by the
Idaho building. Mr.. Bissett visited
the Palouse section several weeks ago
and secured four mule-footed pigs that
he has been training since his return.
He now has the pigs trained to drive
and perform all the duties generally
exacted from horse and calculates
the unusual appearance of the four
pig team will cause the visitors to the
fair to read some Of the bulletins set

Believing that he has solved The
problem of bringing the fruit grow Ell
and the consumer together and that
he can market the Emmett peach crop
to good advantage, A E. Wood OF
Payette has requested The Index to
call the attention of the fruit growers
of this section to his plans and to the
success he has had in handling fruit
In the past eight years
Mr.. Wood is an active orchardist,
owning q 50-acre peach and apple
orchard not far from Payette. He
has been shipper Of fruit for the
past eight years. Last year he sold
Emmett peaches for Denny 4 Co., and
while it is reported that Denny 4 Co.
were heavy losers last year, every
carload that Mr.. Woods sold netted
the company . good profit. He has
letters from the firms TO whom he sold
last year stating their perfect sat
isfaction with the quality Of the peach
- sold them and their utmost con-
Edencs in his integrity.
Mr.. Woods plan Is simple and
straightforward. His customers are
(first) farmers societies, such as the
Society Of Equity, Of which he is a
member; the Grange, Farmers Union,
etc. (second) where no such organ
izations exist, he will sell through
dealers. But always to the consumer.
He proposes to ship in two bushel
crates, tumble pack, thus reducing the
expense to about 9 cents a bushel for
packing. OF course, where a dealer
demands Grated stuff, he will furnish
it.
Mr.. Wood does not propose to buy

Wants to Handle Emmett Fruit

/ the fruit outright. He has two plan
of handling the fruit: First, He vii
market it at stated price agreed up
on by the grower. Second, He vii
sell it on such a commission as ma.
be agreed on. On his part he vii
require the fruit to be matured OF

every crate just as represented, 81
that he may furnish the buyer al
absolute guarantee that such will bt
the case, and that the fruit will arrive
in perfect condition.
His field Of operations will be Ne

tana, and even Colorado. He already
has customers for a considerable
quantity, on the strength Of his fair
dealings in the past.
The above gives . brief outline Of
Mr.. Woods aims and purposes. He
is very much in earnest. From what
The Index can learn he is honest and
trustworthy. He expects to have 10
or 20 cars Of his own fruit to market
and figures that he can handle con-
siderable more with but little more
trouble and expense. He leaves Sat
urday for the East with consign-
ment Of apples and will return in two
or three weeks. If the fruit growers
Of the Emmett country are interested
in his plans, he would like to arrange
a meeting in this city to discuss them
more fully, as soon after his return
as possible, SO that he may have time
TO contract the sale of fruit. Letters
addressed to him at Payette will re-
.eive prompt attention.
