Anything like that number of bld3. In
(act, the opinion prevails among the city
Official that the number of contracting
trms to submit bids on part or all of the
(woposed new system will be small, prob
ably not exceeding half a dozen or so.
E. A. Wlckham has announced his Inten
tion of submitting a bid for the entire plant,
tot he will probably be the only local
Udder. Up to yesterday the city clerk had
received but one bid through the mall and
thla, It was stated, Is merely for the con
struction of the chimney or presumably the
power house. II Is doubtful If this bid will
Da considered, as the city's advertisement
does not call for separate bids on the
himne..
According to the city's advertisement,
which was published In many of the lead
ing engineering magazines of the country,
bids are to be submitted for the plant in
zour aecuons, namely, power plant com-
plete, settling reservoirs, distribution sys
tem and high service reservoir.

The question of the' salary to be paid Dr.
C. H.' Bower, the newly appointed health
officer of the Board of Health, Is expected
to tome up tonight. Whether this Is a
matter to be determined by the Board of
Health or by the city council ha not been
decided. Dr. Tubbs, the qlty physician,
draws his salary from the general fund as
' the other municipal officers do. Health
Officers Mncrae and Smith, attached to
the- police department, are paid In the
aama manner as the other members of the
department. There Is no provision, how
aver, for the salary of the "health officer

ably will be straightened out tonight.

there waa a general exodus from the park.
' When the rain did begin to fall there were
but few people in the park.
The street railway. In anticipation ot the
crowd, made provision for the turrenaed
travel on the Falrmount park line by add

State Food Commissioner Makes Dis
coveries In . Connection with
Various Beversget Rate
Problems.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
: DES MOINES. May lS.-(Speclal.) Poli
tician believe there Is a good and effec
tlve remedy and preventative to democrats
voting the republican ticket at the primary
election two weeks from tomorrow In sec
tion 33 of the primary law. During the
j entire campaign thus far there has been
considerable discussion on to whetner or
not .democrat will vote the republican
tlckft at the primary on June 2. The
democrats have only one candidate for
I'nlted States senator, and practically all
the other offices have but. cne candidate
in the field. Having nothing to sacrifice
on their own ticket It was claimed they
would ask for republican ballot in order
to assist in selecting the republican can
didates. W. M. Walker, a standpatter
from Keosauqua, and a lawyer, has given
it out that section 33 will prevent this, and
Judge Robert Sloan of the district court
of that county endorses the idea. Section
S3 of the primary election law provides
against bribery or voting Illegally and other
forms of violation of the law. and among
other things saya:
"Any person making false answer to
any of the provisions of this act relative
to his qualifications and party affiliations.
shall be deemed guilty of a mlsde
meanor, and, upon conviction, shall be,'
etc., the penalty being not less than 100
and more than $500. or Imprisonment not
less than one or more than six months.
Penalty aa Deterrent.
In all the discussion thus far this pro
vision of the law has been overlooked, but
It is believed now that if there waa any
danger of democrats or members of otlw
parties voting the republican ticket a
proper advertisement of this penalty clause
will greatly diminish If not entirely re
move all such danger. It Is conceded by
all parties that since the democrats have
but one candidate for each office, with no
fight of any kind on In their own party,
have nothing to lose in their own nomina
tions by staying away from the primary
polls-or by voting the republican ballot
on which there Is a contest straight
through, and the temptation is correspond
Ingly great for them to vote the republican
ticket at the primary even If they do not
Intend to vote with the republican party
In November. The primary law provides
that the voter oh entering the booth on
primary day, must declare his party af
filiation, and will then be given a ballot
of that party. His affiliation is then fixed
for all primary election to come, unless
he notlfle In writing the county auditor
at least ten days before election.
George F. Rlnehart of this city Is of
the opinion that the democrats made a
great mistake n not having more than
one candidate out for each office. He Is
the editor of the Democrat-Chronicle of
this city and one of the leading democrats
of the state. He believes that many demo
crats may go over to the republican party
at the primary this year, Just bf-cauaa
there is no fight on in the democratic
ranks, and once thus affiliated will ever
remain thus.
Commissioner After Soft Drinks.
H. R. Wright, state food and dairy com
missioner, 1 devoting some of hi atten
tion to the "soft drinks" business of this
state to see how closely such things con
form with the state pure food law. The lab
oratory of the department in some way
resembles a drug store soda fountain and
the various kinds of drinks are being put
through the chemical test to see what they
are made of.
There have already been some surprise
of considerable consequence. For instance.
Prof. Chtttick, the chemist, completed an
analysis of some hatjd cider and discovered
that It had per cent of alcohol tn It,
which Is more alcohol than is contained in
standard beer. The man who sold the cider
ran a grocery in an Iowa town and. the
cider was sold there. He waa notified at
once by 'phone that he must desist or the
temperance people were likely to get after
him.
Mr. Wright ha discovered that there are
great quantities of a "soft drink" of a par
ticular kind being sold In the state in the
small town and out-of-the-way place
where soda fountains are too expensive to
keep. These soft drinks are put up In bot
tles the shape of beer bottles, but smaller.
The label advertise the drink a being
cooling and healthful and "strictly temper
ance." An analysis In the laboratory of
the pure food department has disclosed i
per cent of alcohol. " Foam" 1 the
ame of one such drink.
Mir. Wright has made an Investigation of
he statutes and finds that Intoxicating
Iquors are prohibited by law and the law
leflnea an "Intoxicating liquor" a being a
I beverage containing alcohol. The law does
not state any particular percentage of al
cohol and the courts have upheld this. Mr.
Wright Is therefore notifying some of the
food dealer of the state that while some
of their "soft drinks" have not been found
to be In conflict with the pure food law
they do conflict with the mulct law, and
while he leaves the Inference that he will
not make It his business to prosecute them,
yet he make It clear that they are liable
to prosecution If anyone care to file a
charge against them.
Samples to All Officers.
Secretary ot State Hayward Is calling the
attention of all county auditor to the fact
that the law provides that they must send
a sample copy of the primary election law
ballot to every person whose name appears
on the ballot. Some of the county auditors
have already discovered this, while others
have not. The purpose of the law Is to
rrake sure that every man' name I tightly
placed on the ballot and I rightly spelled.
Already some Instances of misspelling havo
been discovered.

although it Is understood that the premier.
Marquis SalonJI, recently expressed a de
sire to resign. Prince Ito, however, per
suaded him not to do o, pointing out the
embarrassment that would result from his
resignation In the face of the endorsement
of the people. It Is understood that Mar
quis SalonJI was offended at the elder
statesmen' Inference In his financial policy,
which Marquis Inouye recently severely
criticised. The latter favors a large re
duction In the expenses of the army and
navy and In ' other government undertak
ings. Prince Ito pointed out that Marquis
Inouye' long experience a a statesman
qualified him to criticise and It is' now
understood that the premier has withdrawn
his intention of resigning and ha con
ented to certain step In the future which
will relieve the financial situation.
The announcement of this Is to steady
the market, revive the depression and re
store confidence, especially In view of the
settlement of the question relating to the
Talu forests, the assurances of Japan'
policy In Manchuria, and the reference of

Taft arrived here from Panama at noon to
day on board the cruiser Prairie, and after
spending, a few hours Mn the city, during
which time he was met and greeted by a
number of official and friends, left for
Washington at 6:55 p. an. via the Atlantic
Coast Line. The secretary dined with Mayor
Rhett and held an .informal reception aft

Secsetary iTaft talkeff . freely with regard
to general conditions in Panama, but said
that he did not wfsh to be quoted on such
matter as the relations of the United
State and Panama, which had been sug
gested a a possible reason for his trip, and
he would not discuss the coming elections
to be held In Panama.
"The isthmus now present," he Bald, "an
appearance not unlike a factory or mill
village, or succession of villages, clear
across, and the lights at night, and the
noises, too, might keep one awake If not
tired enough to sleep well."
Secretary Taft was the guest of Colonel
Gcethals, chairman of the commission, at
Culebra, and from hi room window, he
said, the scene was most Interesting. The
health of the canal zone la now excellent,
the houses are generally protected with

a laborer seems to have started a rivalry
