VARIOUS ITEMS Of
LOCAL IMPORTANCE

The heavy shower of Thursday
evening and too heavy load of grain
and -four caused the right rear wheel
of Reinhart's truck to sink into soft
place in the street in front of the
Eagle drug store yesterday. with the
result that the load became over-bal-
anced and several sacks of flour were
dumped to the ground. The city cat
erpillar, formerly government tank,
was brought to the scene and with
very little effort pulled the truck once
more upon solid ground. The soft
spot in the street was probably
caused by soft dirt used to fill one of
the trenches dug for new water
mains.

SUPPOSED INSANE
Man TAKEN At W.P.

Following report from the West
ern Pacific depot last night that men
over there were terrorized by the ac-
tions of man supposed to be insane,
Sheriff Brady and Night Watchman
Kelsey made a hurried trip to that
place and instituted search for the
man. After looking for several hours
In different places where 1t is pos
sible for man to hide, they finally
located him in an empty box car and
brought him to the sheriff's office.
where he is now being held pending
hearing on a charge of insanity.
The man, giving the name of George
Bridge, is apparently about fifty years
of age and seems to be quite rational
at times, but completely insane at
others. He admits having been an
inmate of the Stockton insane asylum
for twelve years. and it Is believed by
local officers that he had been dis
charged there. However, an effort
will be made to get in touch with the
authorities at Stockton, after which 1t
will be determined what to do with
the man.
Although the man has shown no
signs OF violence-so far. he is of i'm
mense stature and gives a person an
uncomfortable feeling when in his
presence.

Mary G. Kilbreth of Washington
in a letter to Walter f. Brown. chair
man of the joint committee on the re-

politicians when she said: 1--WE beg
to bring to your attention the de-
mands being made by certain women
politicians for reapportionment of
public offices on an equal sex basis
especially higher offices in the gov
ernment service. The 27,000 900
women of the nation have delegated
these lobbyists no authority. The al

appointed. They have no credentials
but self-assertion and no shadow of
right to make demands in the name of
women in general, or to receive the
rewards due the women of the coun-
try"

for the revision and codification of
mining laws With the bill goes a
mimeographed letter which says, in
part: 1T Is not contended that this
bill is perfect as it now stands. 1t is,
however. the result of careful study
and investigation on the part of a
committee of engineers appointed by
the Bureau of Mines. Their integrity
and sincerity is unquestioned. 1t is
hoped that all who are interested in
the development of the mineral re-
sources of the Western states will
give to this bill careful attention,
time and study, so that when it is pre-
sented to Congress for final passage
it will as nearly as possible effect the

last Thursday, in which he rhetoric

tered. was a philippe. Some men
said it was pippin. Perhaps it was
both. Representative Kelly is a news
paper man of Braddock. He has spent
two years in study of Indian affairs.
and has found nothing good. The
speech runs from page 5005 to page
5013 of the Congressional Record, and
is worth the space of any Western
newspaper to run as four-part Sc
rial. What Kelly said about the In
dian Bureau probably is more or less
true of all bureaus. 1t would make
fine ammunition for Secretary Mellon,
who has just warned Congress, More
economy or more taxes. Kelly
quoted: "A bureaucracy is sure to
think that its duty is to augment Off

free the energies of mankind"
