What an old demagogue Councilman Hall Is anyway. When Burbldgo was about to get his "necdlngs," Hall warned American Amer-ican members that they were about to destroy their party by such a move. And now he comes forward as another solicitous solicit-ous friend of the American parly by telling Americans thoy would lose thousands thou-sands of votes by refusing to have the Republican city chairman saddled on Ihem as fire chief. If Hall was not a degagoguc he'd bo helping Americans disrupt dis-rupt their party by voting with Ihem. 6r at least, permitting them to go wrong. But the old ass thinks be Is foxy when he unburdens himself thus. Pernio Is afraid tho bond Issue will bo defeated because Devlne was rejected. He Is In tho same class with Hall just as unscrupulous In bis lunguugc but a little more consistent. Fernle would rather Ihe Americans would win than the federal bunch. He would rather see the bonds carry than not. But ho opposed the bonds officially and is not In good form to advise American councllmen aa to their duties In this respect.

He was forced to disgorgo $10,000 he had misappropriated, but be will continue to save tho souls of Idaho derelicts until bis bend goes on tho block. - When tho Smoot "Mouth" thought James Devlne bad been captured by tho Amorlcans by an offer of the cbtefsblp of the fire department, the "Mouth" proceeded pro-ceeded to rend him out of the party. It is sorry now. v , A,,lnJ1, ,T" Snnford. American nominee for Third district judge, will go east today to-day to visit Illinois friends.
