VOL. VIII. NO. 11l
WOULD ABOLISH UNITED STATES SENATE
!HARRIMAN AFTER STREET VACATION
Commission Will Be In
the Spotlight
Railway People Very Anxious To Get Hold Of Some
Valuable Tacoma Land.
Now keep an eye on the city
commission.
Several weeks ago Walter Chris
tian and Billy Welch, represent
ing the Harrlman railways, came
before the council laying out plans
they had for freight yards on the
tideflats. They wanted a street
vacation of property worth $100,
--000.
The city commissioners asked
about the deed the company was
to give for the opening of Jeffer
son avenue. This was promised
when the city gave the company
its tunnel franchise. But the com
pany never kept its promise.
When the city demanded those
deed! the Harrlman men left. They
said they would bring the deeds
in the next week. Instead they
waited for two months or more
and until after the election of a
new mayor.
Yesterday they came back with
a formal application for the vaca
tion of Eaßt Twenty-second street
from River to Q street. This is
several acres of-valuable tideflats
property. Realty men say It is
worth $100,000 in the market
right now.
When asked again about that
Jefferson avenue deed Christian
said he hacV.it made out. But It
has a string to it. He proposes
now to swap this Jefferson avenue
property, which already belongs
to the city, by the plain promise of
the company, for that $100,000
worth of tideflat street. And he
has put It in the deed for this
Jefferson avenue property that
unless the city gives up this tide
flat property It does not get the
Jefferson avenue extension.
It is plain breaking of faith on
the part of the Harriman rail
way.
The Harrlman "line promised
the city faithfully it would open
Jefferson avenue for the city when
it was given a franchise to enter
Tacoma.
Now It comes In and wants to
use this as a club to compel the
city to turn over to it $100,000
worth of property.
The tideflat vacation has noth
ing to do with the Jefferson ave
nue deal. Whether the company
should ever get that street on the
tideflats Is a question by itself,
but it should not be tangled up
with the property the company al
ready owes the city.
If the company starts any such
tactics It will be up to the city
commission to get In and fight.
There are plenty of holds the city
has on the company. It can order
It to fill up that big tunnel, for
one thing, and it would bring them
to time In short order.
Commissioner Freeland is pre
pared to stand for the people in
th« matter. Whether any of the
others will is a question.
.
Anti-Treating
Judge Chapman in superior
court has given notice that he will
assign all the antl-treating ordi
nance cases for trial in the high
er court, to which they were ap
pealed, Saturday.
All tried below have been ap
pealed.
In the meantime the ordinance
is being absolutely Ignored by the
saloons. Beginning the night of
.the election, when It was shown
Fawcett waa defeated, the bars
Opened up to treating, and it has
gone on without any attempt on
the part of the present adminis
tration to enforce the law.
Mr. Fawcett, as a private citi
zen, however, Is not entirely out
of the game yet. He asked the
ojty attorneys yesterday if they
would prosecute any cases brought,
and Mr. Baker told him he would
prosecute any case brought by
any citizen under any ordinance.
It is intimated Fawcett will have
about a score of complaints to
file In a few days.

SOCIALIST MAY
GECONTEB
ADAM H. BAItTH.
The socialists of Tacoma are
prepared to rally strongly to the
support of Adam H. Barth, whose
strong run In the mayoralty pri
mary startled the city. Barth is
running against Commissioner
Roys. Barth addressed the worn-,
en at St. Luke's parish church
Tuesday afternoon, and although
his voice did not permit him to
speak at length, his cause as ad
vocated by Mrs. Saddler met with
hearty response from many of
those present.
It is interesting to know .jiint
where Barth stands on the re
stricted district question.
He said today:
"Under no circumstances would
I stand for private ownership of
the institution such as has existed
In the past. The only solution at
the present time Is to be based
upon provision of law that would
allow the city to own and operate
the district, under the most sani
tary conditions possible.
"Municipally directed, liquor
would not be allowed on the prem
ises. It would be strictly under
the best medical supervision. If
elected I would . absolutely not
stand for private ownership by the
vultures who have been making
money off the women. The place
would remain closed until an im
mediate demand for laws provid
ing for municipal direction should
be answered favorably."
* Mr. Barth appears confident
that he will poll asjnany votes as
he did in the mayoralty primary.
Meetings are being held every
night in various parts cf the city.
Mrs. Saddler is to speak at Val
halla hall, Monday nlgfrl, May 1,
at 8 i>. m. She will discuss tfie
vice conditions. The women of
the city are especially invited to be
present.
WRIGHT BOND
IS ACCEPTED
George P. Wright had his bond
accepted for the building of the
stave pipe line for the Green river
gravity system this morning.
Mayor Seymour was very cau
tious and went into detail so that
there would be a perfect under
standing as to Just what must be
done. He wanted it very clearly
understood that if any changes
were made In the work to lessen
the expense the city must be given
the benefit of it.
Wright agreed to this, and it la
in the contract anyway.
With thla understanding the
mayor agreed to accept the per
sonal bond for 1*12,000 and a
surety bond for $234,000, and the
personal bond will be taken up by
a surety bond within 30 days,
Wright said he wanted to get to
work at onoe on the clearing, as It
will be necessary to burn all the
brush before July.
All these matters will be sub
mitted to Mr. Thomson, the Se
attle engineer, for an opinion.
The Pacific Coast Casualty com
pany, represented by R. E. An
derson & Co., is furnishing the
bond for Mr. Wright.

DON'T MISS IT.
Tho last session of the California legislature dramatic, tense,
was as vital in its iinimrt as an Incident in the evolution of American
government, as any session of any legislature in the history of the
nation.
In 85 days the government of an empire was taken from the
hands of the ftperial interests that for 8O years had exploited It politi

people.
The end of the 85th day marked the culmination of the first
period of a revolution of tremendous scope and importance, a period
of struggle unprecedented In the history of the state.
The leading figure iln this struggle was the man who sat in the
governor's chair.
Hiram \V. Johnson was opposed by all the power that corporate
greed could muster, all the trlrks that corporate cunning could de
vise. With the legislature the people had given lUm he fought battles
in the open where the Issue was plain; and more desperate ones so

(ho Milwaukee socialist member' of the house. ■ : A constitutional
amendment doing away with the ■ "Greatest) . deliberative body In

that he offered his constitutional amendment. ,•■■■,.'".
"The senate has become an abstractive, useless body—a menaeo '.

members of which are representatives solely of certain predatory '-:
