Mr. Ptevenson. the new deputy. Is known In every part of the state, having reported several sessions of the legis lature during the past few yarn, as well as most of tne political and com mercial gatherings fur a local cvriilns paper, ior the past three years or i lie has been reading law prlninrlly un.l r the direction of Mr. Manning, mi. I i cently passed an eiamtnattoq lfor the supreme court, which won praise tor him from his examiners or the upper tribunal. He Is a Washington county man by birth, his father, Klrrt Steven son of Forest drove, having recently txen appointed atate game warden by Uovernor Chamberlain. John JI. Stevenson Is a young man. about 14 years of age and of sukIIou nature, and a moot u-ci-srui career in the legal profession Is predicted for nun by those who have followed hii efforts to secure his admission to the lnr. In connection with (lie appointment of Mr. Stevenson to his new poult Ion comes the storv that Cim " M'Wi'. h for Hourly four years bus held tii- "ffi of chief deputy under Mr Manning. It to resign between this time ami the flint of the year. No statement will be mn.l bv the district attorney regarding tin storv. nor will Mr. Moser discus the matter for publication, but nevertheless he has told friends of his Intention, and It la s certainty. Mr. Moser Is s potential candidate for nomination for the district attorney ship at the hands of the Republic-tin party next AbrlL and hopes to secure the election in June. He Is resigning therefore that he mav come out openly for the nomination and begin his a.ttve campaign for the place Mr. M"ser Is s Hepublican, and wns appointed hy Mr. Manning at the beginning of the latter's term of office In July. 1&0. In the In terim between that time and this he has come largely Into prominence as an at torney through lilrt connection with the district attorney's office, and It Is sup- fiosed that he considers himself morally lound to never his connection with the office b-c ore beginning a campaign for the position now held by Mr. Manning, who will undoubtedly be a candldnte for reei-ctlon. ttiouch he has not as yet made ahy announcement to that effect. So far the two most frequently men tioned Republican aspirants for the dis trict attorneyship are Moser and George J. Cameron, present municipal Judge. Hnth of these men are eure to enter the contest, and unlesa some dark horse not now known ?omea out for the nomina tion the battle will between them at the primaries.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN START FIGHT TO SAVE REFERENDUM LAWS Attack on Initiative by Tel ephone Company to Be Vigorously Resented. X- Flre Marshal Roberts has found It necessary to caution cltlxens In regard to chimney fires because of the fact that 17 bluzes of this nature have been reported to far this month. The trouble Is due, eald Mr. Roberts this morning, to the carelessness of residents In al lowing their chimneys to be used with out cleaning them. As many of the chimneys are filled with soot and the accumulation of lust winter, a brisk stove fire generally starts a blase that often has serious results. M. Roberts attributes many of the chimney fires to the use of dry slabwood and unclean chimneys. Another class of fires which the fire marshal has found necessary to cau tion cltlxens about have been caused by residents piling wood next to the clean up door of chimneys where sparka fly out and Ignite the wood. Three fires of this nature have oc curred In the past week and Mr. Roberts threatens to prosecute future offend ers for their carelessness. "VK WW ' v 'V? -'.-J. ''' ' '" , a. i , . , r- ."J i . .
