Louis Beans Offer

Is there s'cul'ud gent man. in the woodpile Of
Louie Beans offer last week to furnish emergency
Juice" for the city's power plant?
Mayor Fawcett, usually the most skeptic and sus-
piciOus whenever corporation offers to give any
thing to Tacoma, believes it is fair proposition.
Certain other prominent men of Tacoma rather
chary about listening to Bean.
For usually, when the Stone Webster interests in
Tacoma step forward with any gift for the city,
there is string attached The string to this scheme
Is as yet non-apparent
The Z. r. & p. Co. is heavily in "hock." It was
m0rtgaged so badly to the holding companies that it
had even received loans on its franchise to sell
power. When the supreme court Knocked out the
7. r & p. power franchise there security
left for the mortgage
Bean wants to get his franchise back in order to
reestablish the validity of the mortgage-he says.
He doesn't want to compete existing business
he says-but would like to compete on future bus
iness
He can't compete on future business, because, if
the contract is effective and Tacoma gets the auxl
larry power, the city guarantee continuous cleo
tric service, and undercut rates.
Stone e. Webster know this. And it seems an UNI
usual request they are making. They want to give
the city something that we would have to pay
100000 for just to redeem the security ON mort
gage to their holding company.
Though the String to the proposition seems
nom existent, there must be one there. Stone-Web
stcr never gave Tacoma anything for nothing be-
FORE
The city council should pry deeply into the matter
before taking action.

And Jesus Said Unto Her:
ssNeither Do Condemn Thee;
Go and Sin No More"

The Times advocates neither liberation of crime
NOR laxness in dealing with criminals. 1t is for
cleaner and better things, and for men-and women
It deplores the widespread propaganda directed at
the unfortunates who are branded with the scarlet
letter
The fallen sisters are outcasts at BEST not alone
from society," but from home, from friends and
loved ones. Their sin has brought it's own punish
ment, terrible one.
To be Stunned by clean men and pure women, to
b passed upon the street with averted gaze, to be
the boon companion of male brutes, compelled to
fraternize terms of intimacy with habitues of dens
Of vice, must bite deep into the soul of any woman
not utterly beyond hope.
Tis an evil as old as the world itself Well il the
mantle of charity be thrown about them, that by
kind and compassionate treatment they be shown
the of their way. that society extend helping
hand to those who would withdraw from life of
perpetual shame while the fires of womanhood still
burn than that they should be classed with thieves
and murderers, and led to believe that every man S
hand is turned against them, that is left
but to drain the cup of despair to the last dregs.
Civilization marches steadily onward, making
progress, gaining enlightenment, seeking higher
ideals, but in its treatment of societys outcasts it
still remains as in the days of Hawthornes great
story.

BASEBALL. TALK

The sporting editor of the Alas- kan has been coming in for much comment aud abuse over recent suggestions relative to projected baseball among the regulars and the veterans. who are preparing to hurl worldwide def to those ball tossers. Inasmuch as someone must start the ball rolling, and ginger is needed to awaken base ball Iterests in this city, it might just as well be the sporting editor, seeing he gets the blame anyway.
 Much comment and many expressions pro and con, mostly con, have been heard on all sides, and the germs of the baseball bugs bites have beeu propagadng fruitfully. Among the several bits of banter and friendly chaff of the baseballers, might be mea- tioned, our friend Dugan, in con- versation with the regulars. ."Now you fellows need reputation be- fore we consider playing you, get me" And Miller, Well I don't need suit, but l think really, you know we could beat them" And Bert Mckenzie of the regulars, "Oh, same old stuff, guess what" Then Rip Rapuzzi, Let 'em have it, suits me-" But brother Louis, had nothing to say, reports have it he is looking for the sporting editor

CABLE EXPERTS
 HAVE TROUBLE

Valdez Prospector: The gov ernment cable between Val deg and sitka is working very poorly today because of "earth currents" which causes the instrument that records the messages to jump about ill such q manner that it is next to impossible to read the tape and the messages are being repeated back and forth. Nothing but the efficiency of Mas ter Electrician Faust and his capable assistants make possible any ser vice at all.
 Cable experts have tried for years 10 locate the causes for the earth currents" which are similar to static" disturbances in the air in terfering with wireless operations. The cause of static troubles are said to be electrical currents in the air, which interfere with the wireless currents and it is presumed that currents of electricity in the earth are the cause of the trouble on the cable lines. The certainty of this, however, has never yet been fathomLd.
