TRYING TO SAVE PETITION
MUNICIPAL ASSOCIATION AVIXIj
CHECK CP ORDINANCE.
Kf fort Being Made to Rectify Enough
Irregularities to Get Measure
Placed on Official Ballot.
An effort to substantiate names aa
rapidly aa they are stricken from the
McKenna Sunday closing- and $1000-llquor-license
petition was taken up by
the Municipal Association and those In
terested In the proposed ordinance yes
terday. A hired agent of the associa
tion kept close tally on the work of
' the canvassing; committee and each
name that was thrown out because it
did not represent a registered voter
was copied on a slip of paper, later to
be turned over to Paul Rader, who will
endeavor to find out Just who the slgn-
. er is and whether he is entitled to vote,
regardless of whether he registered or
not.
It Is held that In most instances the
names are of regular but unregistered
voters whose names cannot lawfully be
withheld from the petitions.
Five sections of the petition were
canvassed yesterday and the percent-
' ajre of names to be thrown out was
' large. Out of 311 names a total of 129
were not found on the registration
books. Representatives of the liquor
. interests say they have found several
Instances of flagrant violations of the
terms under which petitions must be

Dr. W. F. Lewis was found to be a
nonresident, but ha said he was told
.' this did not matter, aa names were
wanted and no trouble would follow
should he sign. It was also found that
a solicitor visited II. T. Ong, in The
Oregonlan building, with a letter of In
troduction from a friend asking him to
sign. Regardless of the fact that he
waa not a registered voter, Ong said he
waa urged to attach his signature,
which he did.
The name of one woman, a Mrs.
, Taswell, was found in the list on one
petition. Mrs. Taswell la a resident of

MAY USE BOTH SIDES NOW
Postmaster Minto " Discusses New
Rules as to Postcards.
Postmaster Minto said yesterday that
by virtue of a recent decision of the
Postoffice Department It is now permis
sible to write on the address side of post
cards, leaving of course, a place for the
address. The words "post card" are no
longer required to be printed on the ad
dress side of such cards.
Mr. Minto also stated that the report
that 2-cent stamps could be used
Instead of the official 10-cent stamp
on special delivery letters, pro
vided, the sender write the words "spe
cial delivery" beneath the five 2-cent
stamps is untrue. There Is no law of
which he is aware which makes it obli
gatory upon postmasters to deliver let
ters which have other than the regula
tion 10-cent special delivery stamp upon
them. He added that the person who
uses ordinary 2-cent stamps on special
delivery letters not only does not get his
letters specially delivered, but he thereby
loses eight cents in postage, as letters so
stamped are not delivered any sooner than
a letter which has but one 2-cent stamp
upon it.

Total Defect in Charge Against the
Chief of Police.
SALT LAKE CITY, April 12. The in
formation against Chief of Police
George Sheets, charging him with com
plicity in the operations of an organ
ized gang of swindlers who are alleged
to have systematically fleeced tourists
passing through Salt Lake, was dis
missed by Judge Armstrong in the

that the Information really charged
Sheets with a felony, but that, as the
lower court had bound the defendant
over merely for the conspiracy a mis
demeanor the Information would have
to be dismissed.
The eight men named with Sheets In
the original Information are thus prac
tically released with him. They are:
Chief of Detectives Raleigh, Attorney

seph Donaldson, Larry O'Brien, JoBn

house here last Winter The charge
against Sheets waa that he had accept
ed money for protecting the swindlers
In their operations. The state may ap
peal the case to the State Supreme
Court.
