' Walter Thomaa Mills, delivered the
fifth of' a series of addresses on so
ciological subjects at the new Masonic

TTh Traffic In Vice and the Market for
Men." Ha said in part:
"All modern sports are rudimentary

LaGrippe
Weakness
"After a spell of La Grippe I was
so weak and exhausted I could
hardly stand. I began taking Dr.
Miles' Nervine and was soon better
in every way." ' i
MRS. F. J. NORTON, Freeville, ' N. T.
La Grippe seems to wrench every
particle of vitality from its unfortu
nate victims. That's where the
principal danger lies; because it
leaves the system in a weakened
condition which invites more serious
diseases. During convalescence
, Dr. Miles' Nervine
should be taken to restore nervous
energy, and overcome this weaken
ing influence which is the most
. serious effect of La Grippe.
The first battle will benefit; If not,
your druggist will return your money.

HAVE SALOONS
Council Expected to Override
Mayor's Veto and Let
Them Eeopen.
Tiiat the saloons of St. Johns will
soon be running again full blast, seems
almost certain, for the city council
at Its next meeting on Tuesday even
lng of next week will. It is said, pass
the reopening ordinance over the may
or's veto, which was placed on the
measure at the council meeting last
Tuesday. Seven aldermen constitute
the council, and five are for and two
against the saloons Tne mayor rumseu,
H. W. Bruce, is against the measure.
So if the ordinance Is passed over
the mayor s head saloons will again be
opened- Thus far four applications
have been received by the council, and
it is thought that probably more will
come In after the ordinance is passed.
Before St., Johns went "dry" last June
there were seven. It is thought also
that an attemDt will be made by cltl-
ena not In sympathy with the saloon
ordinance to close the places up again.
It was because of the supreme court's
ruling in the Medford local option case
i.iat tne petitions ror tne reopening ut
tr.e saloons were asked for in St. Johns.
but It Is a question as to whether the
Medford case Is parallel to tnis case.
Although the charters 01 Dotn cities
were granted at practically, the same
time, before the local optisn law went
nto effect. In ISO, tne Bt. jonns cnar-
ter was practically revised, ana tne
revision came after the local option law
was in effect.
Public sentiment seems to te wun
the reopening of the saloons. When
the saloons were running a license of
11000. was lmnosed. This helped in
crease tne public funds materially, and
Just now the town treasury is very low.
It Is pointed out by many that the fact
that St. Johns is within such easy ac
cess to Portland makes a great many
of the working men who reside at Bt.
Johns come to town after supper and
there sDend a few dimes in tne saloons,
whMrniiii if thj town had its own sa
loons they could undoubtedly keep the
money at home. "Prohibition is all
right for a town about 65 miles away
from an oDen town, said one cttlsen.
but where It s only a b cent car tare
between them it's no good."
CLAIM FEES III .
SPUE OF CHIEF
Policemen Ask Witness Fees
for Being jn Court but
Commissioners Object.
Although the county court made an
order about two weeks ago directing
the cdunty auditor to refuse Jo allow
any claims for fees by policemen who
are called as witnesses in the circuit
court, the bluecoats continue to file
their claims, whether this is by or
der of the chief of police, in the hope
tnat tne rees may some day oe col
lected for the benefit of the police re
lief fund. It Is not known, but the of
ficers appear to regard the claiming of
lees as almost a religious duty.
Chief Oritzmacher some time ago
caused a stir by rintng several detec
tives and star wearers who had col
lected fees and put them In their re
spective pockets. The regulations of
the department required that such fees
should not be for the personal bene
fit of the policemen, but should be
deposited for the relief fund. But the
county commissioners take the view
that the officers are not entitled to
compensation beyond their salaries for
any purpose, and County Auditor
urandes has instructions to cut out an
the police claimants.

1RY BOTH DALY AND
FINCH THIS MONTH
James A. Pinch and Harry Daly, both
Indicted yesterday on the charge of
murder, will be called on to plead be
fore Judge Gantenbetn In the .circuit
court tomorrow morning. There seems
little doubt that both will be tried dur
ing the - December term of court with
the Daly case first--Harry Kenny was
shot bv Daly several days before Finch
shot Ralph B. Fisher, and this Is ex
pected to give him preference in select
ing an early date of trial.

Eyes tested free at Metgger'a,
Annual passes for the year 1909 are
being issued by the railroads centering
in Portland, and In spite of the fact
that the interstate commerce law
knocked a lot of people out of free
rides, there are still a few favored ones
who will travel next year without pay
ing fare. For instance, the number of
those who will get annuals over the
Harrlman lines centering here will be
about 2000. The North Bank, being a
comparatively new road with shorter
mileage and fewer connections, win
only issue 400 or E00 annuals for the
season or iuuu.
There are two lists on the pass roll
of the big railroads now employes and
exchange. All the important emproyes
of the roads get passes over their own
line and there are hundreds of claim
agents and right of way men who re
ceive annuals. The smaller list goes
to officials of rival or competing roads
and Includes the general officers, and:
most of their important assistants.
So the little oblong pieces of paste
board with the nice engraving on tnem
haven't gone entirely out of fashion.
