Arguments in Rosewater
Suit Against Earl Papers
The first arguments in the suit
brought by C. C. Rosewater, former
business manager of the Los Angeles
Express and Tribune, against E. Tk
Earl, the owner and publisher of that
paper, have been made in the courts
at Los Angeles,, .
The case is .that inwhich' Mr. Rose
water sued' for 'back salary: and loss
of time, charging, breach of contract
and charging that the publisher mis
represented the condition of his paper
to him when 'Mr. Rosewater con
tracted to take the business manage
ment of the paper..
The argument centered about the
point of whether the methods alleged
bv Mb. Rosewater to have been em
ployed by Earl to boost the subscrip
tion list are really vital to the case.
Arthur Vcitch. attorney for Mr,
Rosewater,, contended that the letters
and conversation set forth are. a series
or important pomts leaatng up to inc
employment of Mr. Rosewater by
Earl.
E. A. Meserve, attorney for Earl,
argued that the circulation methods
are not vital, and should be stricken
out of the complaint.

thirty-fourth division of the new
army are represented here tonight,
except Minnesota. When the bugles
blew for retreat in Camp Cody the
Minnesotan's were said to be on the

Business took on a great spurt, not
only in the camp, but in this little city
on the plains today. Already there
are here:

Meet Incoming Men.
Colonel F. L. Winn, camp com
mander, ranking officer of the Thirty-
fourth Negro infantry, of which a bat
talion has been here as guard, met the
incoming guardsmen and assigned
them to sites. A few tents were raised,
but many of the men who arrived late
slept in the cars. I he advance de
tachments are to prepare Camp Cody
for the big rush, already overdjue.
There are main streets (company
streets) and alleys to make, but of
course the boys who are coming will
have a hand in that before drilling
starts. The intense heat of summer
is nearly past, and though there will
be a little rain this fall, the camp will
be one of the healthiest, with an
abundance of pure water.

city to Degin active woric on tne
part of Nebraska in the world war.
Nebraska troops yet remaining may
go later this week or they may not
receive orders to move until the
camp preparations are more nearly
completed. It is quite probable that
the order for .their departure will not
be given until General Harries
reaches Deming.
Snelling Students Urged to
Attend Omaha Balloon School
Omaha yotnig men goirig to Fort
Snelling for the second officers' re
serve training camp -are -being re
minded by the Commercial club of
the advantages in the balloon branch
of the service It was. noted that
many of the officers who received
their commissions at Snelling re
cently knew very little about the bal
loon school at Fort Omaha, and that
few; if 'any, chose this branch of the
service wjaen asked to state their
preference as to branch of service.
On their return tol Omaha, the
commissioned officers were taken by
Commercial club members for a visit
-to Fort Omaha. The young men were
greatly pleased at the work they
Found there. ,
Many of thein are said to have ex
pressed regrets at not having had
full information regarding the bal
loon service in time to express their
preference for this branch when they
were offered the opportunity at Snell
ing. The club proposes to have the
Omaha boys who go to Snelling now,
more familiar, with, the work in the
hope that some of them will decide
to take this up, and will as a result
be stationed at Fort Omaha for some
months after receiving commisssions.
