HORSETHIEF SENTENCED
Waller Rines, the confessed
horsethlef who stole a valuable ani
mal from his friend, A. .1. Wilson of
Opportunity, last week, was sen
tenced to serve an Indeterminate
term of from one to 10 years In the
penitentiary by Judge lluuekc this
worn ing.
hank would have to purchase ap
proximately 3800 shares making a
consideration of more than $000,-
-000 at least.
The present capitalization and
surplus of the Exchange is given
at $1,250,000. With the advent of
the Rockefeller interests into the
local banking field it is expected
that the Exchange will be made
one of the-greatest' financial insti
tutions of the country and used as
a distributing center for Standard
Oil financial operations in this sec
tion of the Northwest.
This deal will eliminate Sweeny
from the Spokane field as he Is re
ported lo have closed out his other
personal investments in Spokane.
To a casual observer It looks as
if Sweeny had suffered Helnze's
fate in going into Wall st.
Rumors of his speculative diffi
culties were the most dangerous
symptoms the Exchange bank had
to face during the stringency, al
though nothing actually serious re
sulted and the bank's integrity
stood the test.
The skull was crushed, and an ex
amination Indicates that she was
horribly maltreated before death.
Several people saw a big auto
with Do lights pass toward the pond
with two men and two women on
the night of the Fourth, When It
returned It carried two men and
one woman. Friends of the girl
are being closely questioned.

THE SPOKANE PRESS
PARASITES EXPOSED BY PRESS IN
SPOKANE AT EAST IN LAW'S GRIP
The Federal Secret Service Follows
Gouyets to France and
Back Again.
"Uncle Sam was never so angry
in his life."
in the foregoing words Major
Alfred Hampton, immigration in
spector stationed in Helena, Mont.,
describes the tenacious pursuit, ar
rest and imprisonment of Pete and
Adolph Gouyet, the notorious
Frenchmen who for years defied
the municipal governments of Spo
kane and other western cities, by
boldly importing and enslaving
white women from France, c#m
pelllng them to live immoral lives
and give their masters the money.
The latter lived high and came to
he known as the "kings of the para
sites."
Credit for the final capture ol
the notorious slavers, and the col
lection of the evidence necessary
to convict them is accredited to
The Press and Detective Fred
Pearson of the local police force.
The Frenchmen and two women
they imported are now in jail in
Helena under heavy bonds. The
federal grand jury is about ready
to return true bills against all four.
They will then be tried before the
federal court of Helena and afte."
they have served their sentences
of imprisonment the government
will deport them.
The attention of Sec. Strauss,
head of the Immigration bureau,
was first called to the white slave
industry by the publication in The
Press last fall, of a series of ar
ticles divulging secrets of the para
site gang, who for years defied the
government. The articles told- of
a mysterious ranch on the St. Joe
river which the French women
feared worse than death for when
once sent to it, they never returned
and their friends heard no more of
them. This was one of the penal
ties meted out by their masters
whenever they gave away secrets
to the police, or endeavored to es
eap bondage.
The Press also told of how the
women feared to accompany their
masters to Coeur d'Alene lake for
there were Instances when some of
them failed to return. It was said
that they went hack to France but
their relatives back there never
heard of them.
Prominent leaders of this hand
of Frenchmen were the Gouyet
brothers. They were known as the
"king*" of the band. Their word
was law and they were feared as
much by the others as any Turkish
despot. They didn't, appear to fear
arrest. When necessary they
would leave the county or state it
the chase after them became too
hot. For hundreds of miles around
Spokane their spies met every
train to seek out fleeing slaves and
compel them to go into bondage
again.
The series of articles reached
the U. S. department at Washing
ton ami secret ngents came here.
Hut to all appearances they were
up against the same thing as local
police officers, It seemed impossi
ble to obtain sufficient evidence to
convict the men of any crime be
sides vagrancy, For this they
were arrested many times, cheer
fully paid their tines, and continued
to do business at the old stands.
Nightly they held revels nnd big
wine debauches. Finally things
not so hot for them I hey moved
out to Minnehaha park. In a drunk
en revel one night several of them
auctioned their women. traded
them for money and concessions.
A wild debauch followed the sale.
Tho park was supposed to be un
der supervision of the sheriff's of
fice.
Hut tho news leaked out and this
was another score against the
Frenchmen. Still, although the po
lice tried their best to scene accur
ate Information and evidence
enough to secure convictions, it
was impossible. The women dared
not do otherwise than swear to
lies. They were willing to go to
jail lor perjury rather than run the
risk of divulging Information. Fol
lowing Tlie Press article! city of
ficials abolished the dives along
Front ay. At the close of the
racing season the prosecuting at
torney's office t'nally cleaned out
Minnehaha.
There was then no longer any
revenue for the Frenchmen here
so they went to coast cities.
Last October the Gouyet broth
ers drew all their money which It
Is estimated amounted to close to
$100,000 out of local and coast
banks. Then they started for
France with their favorite women.
Pete's favorite was Henot DUVOn,
known here as "Minion." Adolph
took Emma Vigno, known as "Er
ma." When they left for New-
York secret agents of the govern
ment followed them and saw them
and saw them embark for the old
country on the steamship Laßavoy,
The French government was then
communicated with and it sent its
secret agents to meet the Gouyet
brothers, They were under sur
veillance In France, last March
Weather —Showers tonight and Tuesday.
SPOKANE, WASHINGTON,,MONDAY, JULY 13, 1908.
they once more embarked for thjs
country. This was the first real
evidence secured. It became a
Question of following them until
they once more forced the women
they brought info an immoral life.
The Frenchmen went to Los
Angeles hut dared not carry out
their plans. Then they went to
Helena, Mont. As soon as they
put their women In immoral houses,
the news was flashed to Washing
ton. Instructions returned to
Major Hampton to arrest them
and use every endeavor to secure
a conviction.
Officer Fred Pearson, who was
the main witness against the "kings
of the parasites" here, was or
dered to Helena. For about two
years be had been especially de
tailed to keep order In the notoiv
ions Yale and Main blocks in this
city where the French women
were located. One French girl
was so bold one day following trou
ble with her master, to pour into
Pearson's ear a tale of cruelty,
white slavery and defiance of law
almost unbelleveable. With this
information as a clew, Pearson
worked nearly a year gathering
further information and datn. He
discovered that Gouyet was the
real head of the powerful French
organization formed for the pur
pose of importing and enslaving
their young countrywomen whom
they sent to the old country for
under the representation that, therd
was lots of money to be made in
America in an honorable manner.
Once in Spokane, which was a cen
tral shipping point like a cattle
market, the women were taught the
immoral existence they were to
follow. They were then sold to the
highest bidder. Some of the
Frenchmen owned as high as six
slaves. It is claimed that at one
time Pete himself laid claim to It).
Pearson worked on the cast with
grim determination. He made
friends with the Frenchmen and
added greatly to his knowledge of
their operations in that manner.
Hut this evidence was never suf
ficient to secure convictions so he
waited.
During all this time he kept a
complete memoranda of names and
dates. It was with the aid of this
that a strong case has been made
out against the Frenchmen and
they are now in a fair way to be
sent to the IT- S. prison and de
ported after they have served
their sentences.
Both the Frenchmen are finding
it hard. Accustomed as they had
been to living on the fat of the
land, prison fare goes poorly with
them. Both are now mere shadows
of their former selves.
Pearson returned yesterday from
Helena elated at his success.
Major Hampton highly commends
him for his good work. He will
be called to Helena again to re
peat his evidence before the IT. S.
court when the men are finally
tried.

It was rumored that Eddie Quinn

they didn't trade. A combination

Today Quinn signed Denny Shea

wearing of the monstrosity by de
claring Marie Antoinette and the
ladies of her court used to wear
something like it in the days of
Louis XV.
There is a movement afoot to
encourage married men to start in
boosting the "Merry Widow" in
order to maintain that freak in
popularity as a lesser evil between
the two. At least the "Merry
Widow" Is comparatively cheap.
It is pointed out if a woman
takes it in her head to wear an
"Antoinette" the husband might
as well buy out a millinery store,
and thus at least be in a position
to get materials at cost.
lins says, "When the public be
lieves it has found the right man
it should not require him to pay
a certain amount of cash for the
privilege of accepting this respon
sibility," etc.
As a matter oi fact the public
does not require any man to pay
any fee to file his declaration as a
candidate for the primary election.
Our present primary law con
tains such a provision and a scale
of fees to be paid, but these pro
visions are without constitutional
warrant and similar provisions in
other states, where the matter has
been passed upon, have been heid
unconstitutional.
There is little doubt hut that il
the secretary of state or county au
ditor shoul drefuse to file a declara
tion of candidacy or print the can
didate's name on the primary tickee
because of his refusal to pay the
fee. the courts would compel the
same to be done
This very matter was passed
upon last year hy the supreme
court of North Dakota in Johnson
vs. Grand Forks county where sim
ilar rulings are cited from Illinois,
California, Nebraska, Minnesota
and other state.
Speaking of this matter the
Illinois supreme court says.
"There can be no discrimination
between candidates based on the
ground that one has money and
Cffooses to pay for the privilege of
being a candidate and the Other has
no money or is unwilling to pay for
being a candidate."
The stand ta!;en by Mr. Collins
Is correct so far as it goes, but the
principle of requiring a fee to be
paid by any on 'in order to be a
candidate for public office Is
wrong under a democratic form of
government. It is contrary to the
spirit of the direct primary, and
moreover it is unconstitutional.
The primary nomination idea is
a great advancement upon the old
convention methods, but let the
pure spirit of that system prevade
the whole primary law. It should
be free to all: fees of any kind
have no place In such a system
Believing that the public is in
terested in the direct primary sys
tem and want Information as to
our primary election law I take this
means to bring to its attention,

fees, about which I believe no law
yer has any serious doubt. Yours,

NO NEW BRIDGE BOND
ISSUE TILL STREETCAR
COMPANIES PLAY FAIR
I do not favor any more bridge buflding until we have
secured written agreements from the street railway com
panies as to what proportion of the costs they will pay.

I favor all work being done by day labor provided it
is efficient. I
I do not favor bonding the city until every situation
has been all figured out and it is known just how much of
the bond issue is to be applied to each structure.
The city should proceed in its bridge building just as
carefully as private individual would.—Mayor Moore.
Believing that the present agita
tion to bond the city again for ad
ditional new bridges is nonsensical
until it is cleaily established that
the streetcar companies must pay
a fair proportion of the cost and
this proportion is established be
yond possibility of dispute or eva
sion, The Press today put the ques

The city council and board of
public works have displayed an un
accountable and inexcusable inabil

cost. That question Is practically
right where it was after tbe How
