slaughter on account of tho lire in tho
Irotpiois theater in Chicago in IDO.'I, is
now at a standstill so far as evidence is
concerned and promises to bo tied up
in the courts Indefinitely on legal
points.
When thoso polntB hnvo been passed
to tho court, moro of vital importance
will be submitted. Tho defonso offers
to admit the facts. Tho prosecution
denies Its right to do so.
Counsel representing tho stato said it
would bo shown that tho theater was
Incomplete when opened nnd unfinish
ed at tho time of tho fire, and that Mr.
Davis knowingly violated tho ordinance
relating to safety In public playhouses.
T1iq defenso moved that tho prosecu
tion bo required to introduce tho ordi
nance in question, tho theory being
that, should tho court hold tho ordi
nance invalid, there would have been
no law for Davis to violate.
Tho court set Friday for hearing the
argument.

Colonist Ratos Promote tho Upbuild

Low one-way colonist rates to tho

roads aro working hand lu hand with
tho commercial bodice everywhere In

Colonist rates nro not now in Western
railroading, but at no timo previously
hno they lioon bo offectlvo in diverting
tnivol this way as at present nnd tho
biggest colonist movement In tho his
tory of tho Pacific Northwest is predict
ed for tho four spring nnd fall months
of 1007 when tlio reduced one-way fures
aro in effect.
Tho growth of tho westward movo
mont 1c duo to tho bettor advertising
and exploitation methods of commercial
bodies and rail roads and to tho growing
