THE SFORXIXG OREGON1AN. WEDNESDAY, .JANUARY 8. 1908. MAYOR'S ORDER JARS SPOKANE Goaded by Demands for Law Enforcement, City Will Be Closed Tighter Than Drum. HOT SHOT FOR COUNCIL C'hler Ren Rice Denounced Because Saloonmen Are Not Jailed Vari ety Theaters and Low Resorts Must Sow Shut up Shop. SPOKANE, Wash.. Jan. 7. (Special.) Spokane saloonkeepers, influential and otherwise, who Hell liquor on Sundays, are to be thrown in Jail. Variety thea ters are forbidden the privilege of allow ing women on their floors where liquor is sold, and are. therefore, practically put out of business: and the Main and Yale blocks, where now are located nearly all the immoral women of Spokane, are. to be closed. This is the ukase of Mayor 'C. Herbert Moore, who la driven to the task by a campaign for morality, started more than two months ago by the Law Enforcement league. Waiting until quarters are provided In the city jail where they may serve their sentences, are 45 saloonkeepers of Spo kane. They have appeared in the munici pal courtroom from day to day. but because the city jail is overflowing with drunk vagrants, suspects and more dangerous criminals, the ruriisellers have been paroled. Hot shot was fired at the City Council meeting tonight. Councilman Pratt, who Is self-constituted champion of the moral ity element, denounced the Chief of Po lice, Ren Rloe, -who, he declared, had deliberately ignored his sworn duty in allowing sentenced criminals to roam the streets on parole. The saloonkeepers, be it understood, had been fined $35 each, but they formed a pact to refuse to pay the fines and reported to the chief for in carceration. These whisky dealers in clude W. a Norman, who runs the larg est first-class hotel in Spokane and Ta coma. and other men prominent In fra ternal society circles. Pratt demanded that Chief Rice either obey the mandate of the court or resign his office. Thereupon Mayor Moore, who recently put the slot machines out of business, announced he would tighten the lid as it has never been tightened be fore. The immoral women are given un til February 1 to vacate, and the variety theaters are given one more night in wlili-h to arrange their establishments, if tiiey so elect, into beer gardens sans women. The order has Jarred Spokane from cen ter to circumference. OREGON COUNCIL BANQUET Members of Royal Arcanum Sine at Lenox Grijl.

The Eugene public schools opened yesterday with an Increased enrollment In the grades and a number of applicants for the high school. But the new students for the high school have been asked to report the first week in February, when the second term's work begins. On ac count of the large Increase in attendance at the public schools, the board will be compelled to erect another school build ing before the Fall term opens. He explained that the people of Bay City and Tillamook are suffering seriously from a lack of shipping facilities. About three months ago, he explained, the two steamers that had been running between Portland, Astoria Bay Clly and Tilla mook were withdrawn suddenlV and em ployed for other purposes by their own ers. In the meantime other boats have been substituted, with the result that 350 tons of freight, consisting of miscel laneous supplies, and consigned to the business men of the two cities on Tilla mook Bay, have accumulated at Astoria. Shut off in this way without any notice, the merchants at Bay City and Tillamook find their stocks about depleted, with no means for shipping in additional supplies. Mr. Prevost was sent to this city to take up the matter with the Manufacturers' Association and make some provision for relieving the situation on the Tillamook coast. A committee was appointed to in vestigate the complaint. At last night's meeting the Manufac turers' Association further considered the enforcement of quarantine regulations at Astoria. Correspondence was read from the Astoria Chamber of Commerce, which has agreed to favor the location of an outlook at a sub-station at Point Adams, but the organization opposes the removal of the quarantine station from that city to Fort Stevens, as has been proposed by the Manufacturers' Association.. The latter organization concurred In- the sug gestion of the Astoria commercial body for an outlook at Point Adams, but stilh malntalns that the quarantine station should be located a: Fort Stevens and will take the subject up with the proper authorities at Washington. Since mak ing Its flght for a better enforcement of the quarantine regulations at the mouth of the Columbia, the Manufacturers' As sociation has received a number of let ters from shipping interests warmly In dorsing its position. , The annual election was held by the board of directors last night, and resulted in the re-election of the old officers, as follows: President, Fletcher Linn; vice president, Oscar E. Heintz; secretary, S. B, Vincent: treasurer, W. H. McMonies. Colonel David M. Dunne was nominated for president but declined and insisted on the re-election of President Linn, whom he nominated. President Linn asked to be excused from accepting the presidency for the third term, but the declination was disregarded and his elec tion resulted unanimously.
