RALPH A. MEYER
WANTED ON A
FELONY Charge

\ warrant calling for the arrest
of Ralph A. Meyer, who styled him
self a mining engineer, was issued
last evening at the instance of f.
A. Ramsey and others alleging that
Meyers was guilty of a felony in dis
posing of certain stock certificates
issued in blank by companies oper-
ating in the Arrowhead district
Meyer $ reported to be in San Fran
cisco as he was seen recently around
the Chancellor hotel, but he may
have taken his departure for Los
Angeles, where he was known to
have operated three weeks ago
Meyer was attracted to TOnOpah
last summer when he appeared to
be taking an active part in the pro-
motion of several properties outside
the Divide district He claimed to
have good financial connections and
posed as a former captain in th'
Canadian aviation service A gentle
man who had business dealings with
Meyer wrote to TonOpah inquirng
about the standing of the quasi cap
tain and received two replies from
various department heads that a
man of the name of R A. Meyer
was in the service as cadet and
was dismissed when he failed to
qualify
When Arrowhead forged to the
front Meyer insinuated himself into
the foreground and by using mass
of technical language with re
dundancy Of geological terms, con
vinced some of his followers that
he was one of the highbrOws of his
business. He helped organize sey-
cral companies and the men who
nut up the money for these concerns
are now anxious to hear an eXplana-
ton from the captain. Meyer left
here christmas week. saying he had
received an urgent professional call
that required his presence in Seat
tie He did not remain long in that
citv and later was observed spend
ing money freely in San Francisco

 Often Cause Fires
 Besides the generally admitted fact that they are blot on the landscape, boards are. considered an evil in more tangible ways. When they are not strongly supported there is always danger of their falling over in storms. Unless they are of fireproof material they are easily inflammable and often serve to carry fire from one building to another. If the boards are not raised several feet from the ground, the space back of them almost invar- iably becomes a dump for refuse and convenient place for criminals to hide
 Signboards nearly always shut out some sunlight and air. To prevent this as much as possible, some cities limit the height and width of the boards. The importance of breathing space around a building is recognized by a number of our millionaires not ably John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who Is said to have bought three houses so as to insure himself against tall build
 ngs being erected on either side of his home.
 Our most progressive towns have nearly all demanded safety and sani tation in billboard construction, and q number of places limit the signs to business districts, or else require the written consent of a ma jority of the property owners before a sign can be inflicted on a residential block
 The billboard companies have fought reform strenuously. In some states, civic association claim that they have defeated legislation; in others. it was said that they tried to have ordinances put into effect which would not re- strict use of billboards to any extent. but which would make it appear that the town had settled the question. Now that the courts are deserting them, some of the bil1- posting mag mates seem to be falling into line with community improvement and agreeing to the restrictions imposed. They still claim, however, that outdoor ad- vertising is a legitimate and highly | efficient method of business promo tion They point to the undeniably artistic signs painted by Maxfield Parrish as a sample of what thing of beauty the billboard can be. They | ignore the fact that MT. Parrish has painted only a very few ads out of thousands displayed.
 But though the cities frown at them l the bill-posters can afford to be cheer | ful. for rural districts still offer then unlimited opportunities for educatins the public. The railroads have not yet been completely encased in boards
 and even when that little job is done
 there are all the roads where automo- piles travel to be decorated. Joseph

DENVER, Aug. 13-Legal action to punish the leaders of the mobs which were active last Thursday and Friday nights in connection with the strike of street car men. was begun today, while union leaders were planning the estab- lishment of line of jitney busses to compete with street cars operated by strike breakers.
 According to A. H. Burt of Salt Lake City, international organizer of the union, tho proposition to operate jitney busses was considered at a conference Of the executive board of the local union and Wayne C Williams, attorney for the union. He said tentative plans for the operation of 150 automobiles were made at the conference.

York courts then held that aesthetic considerations are a matter of luxury and indulgence rather than of neces- sity," and similar rulings were handed down where their ugliness was the main reason for legislation against street signs.
