NEWS FROM TACOMA.
The Union has the following

The Union has the following:
From private letter received Friday
morning from Tacoma We CLEAN the 70!
lowing good news for this section:
In an interview with Mr.. G. B Wright,
that gentleman stated that "the switch
back would positively be completed and
through trains will be running from St.
Paul to Tacoma before next Christmas
and perhaps as early as November"
As confirmatory of this we are reliably
informed that w. II. Kennedy, who was
recently assigned to the engineering work
on the west side of the Cascades, has
found it practicable to reach the tunnel
on an easy grade and save large amount
of expense, by building what railroad
men call ga loop" by means Of which a
road doubles on itself and readily gains
elevation by so doing.
At Tacoma Mr.. Wright also stated
that he favored and would guarantee
support toward the road from Walla
Walla to Ainsworth.
In Portland we learned that Mr.
Wright will probably visit Walla Walla
before he returns to the east, possibly he
will decide to meet a committee at Wal
lula and there talk the matter over. We
also learned from a reliable source that if
the people will grade the roadbed between
Wala Walla and Ainsworth company,
with ample capital, will be organized to
finish and iron the road aud operate it in
the interest Of Walla Wala and tributary
county, and that the company will give
those who subscribe to the cost of grading
stocks in the company, at par. to the
amount of their individual subscriptions.
Nothing in relation to probable rates to
and from Ainsworth over the Northern
Pacific was learned. That is subject
for further consideration. Strong pre-
ference was expressed for the Waitsburg
route by the parties who propose to rail
and operate the road. Let us grade the
road

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS SPEC.
IAL SESSION.

The board Of county commissioners of
Nez Perez county met in special session
on Friday las: at the court house. The
meeting was called upon previous notice
given for the purpose of considering the
question of filing the Office of sheriff, in
place of L. w. Cameron, deceased
Several Of the attorneys were present,
some Of whom volunteered opinions in
relation to the duties Of the comfy com
missioners to make au apps intmcnt of
sheriff some eontendiug that the law
providing that the Corner of the county
became cx-osficio sheriff upon the death
of the sheriff, and that the Coroner if he
came forward to fulfil the duties If
sheriff could hold the 1flicc throughout
the residue of the sheriiTs term, and that
there was no necessity for the appoint
ment of new sheriff; that there was no
vacancy to be filed Others contendiu2
that the Coroner was only to fill the Of
fee of sheriff till such time as the board
Of county commissioners could meet and
appoint new sheriff. After the re-
marks Of counsel the board took the mat
ter under advisement and remained in
session something over two hours deli
beratia1 upon the matter. We under
stand that there were several applications
to be made sheriff by appointment The
board finally came to the determination
to appoint l.. Stannus, the former urder
sheriff, to fill the place of sheriff, and
required him to give bonds in the sum
Of So, 00O; $4,000 as the bonds for
sheriff, and $1,000 as the bonds for tax
collector, to be approved by the board of
county commissioners. We are informed
that Mr.. Stannus executed and filed the

and that he is now the defacto sheriff
during the remaindd of the term.

6oMD LIGHT ON THE SUBJECT.

From a gentleman who has recently
been in Washington aud had interviews
with leading senators he infers from their
statements that there is no serious OBJ.
jections IN the Senate to the passage of
the bill to annex North Idaho to Wash.
inston, and that the bill will surely be pas
sed before the adjournment. The delay is
for the purpose of inducing the friends
of admission Of the state of Washington
in the House to work the harder for the
passage of the admission bill in the
House. When it is accertained that the
admission bill is likely to fail in the
House the Senate will Immediately call
up the annexation bill and pass it by a
large majority, as that majority believes
it measure eminently just aud proper
for the people of North Idaho. If the
admission bill should pass the House it
practically gives us the annexation. If
this view of the case be correct, We can
afford to wait with much patience the
day Of eur freedom, from mormon or
Ring rule il the South.

IMPORTANT DECISION.

Judge Langford in Walla Walla, on
Tuesday last rendered an important decis-
ion, to the effect that as the organic act
of Washington Territory, that the title
of all acts of the legislature must state
their objects, and act entitled IAN act
to amend Sec. 80 Chapter 4, Of the code
Of Washington Territory" does not state
the object in its title. is contrary to the
organic act of Washington Territory and
void. A large number Of these acts
came under this rule Among others
the act comforting suffrage on women,
the title Of which is simply AN act
to amend Sec. 1850, Chapter 23S of the
code of Neutrality-suspicious. Com
mOner.
1t would be singular state Of affairs
if it shonld turn out that the supposed
law which admitted the women of Wash
ington Territory tc right Of Suffrage, was
not a law, and that the present delegate in
congress who owes his election to the
votes of women should hold his position
by SO slender title. 1t is now too late,
but had his election been contested upon
that ground Langford's decision would
have cut quite figure in the case. 1t
may be that Judge Langford is endeavor.
ing to give some comfort to those in North
Idaho who are opposed to annexation on
account of woman suffrage.

A Big Scheme.

Rockford Enterprise: A gigantic
move is on foot to organize corporation
to turn the waters Of tiio ST Mary Into
Hansman creek, the project is reported
feasible by party of viewers who went
there to examine its practicability. It
would establish first-class water power
on every three miles of Hangman creek,
running through an immense body of ac-
cessible white pine, cedar and yellow pine
timber, wrieh could be easily drove to
any place on the creek, it would be the
means of creating a new era in the
history of this portion of the country; in
fact the next thing to railroad.

when it says Men have right to re-

but no body Of strikers have the right to
interfere with another who is willing to
work ii he can get work to do. The

Senator Dolph under date of April 80
writes as follows: s'Some gentlemen
from Washington Territory who were in
the city desired to have the admission
bill laid aside and the annexation bill re-.
ported. Of course that was impractical
: bic. No committee would report bill
with such haste, and Senator Plait who
had charge of the Washington Territory
bill AMI others interested, could not be
expected to lay it aside under the cireum-
stances. Tn fact if such an attempt had
been made the probability is that neither
bill would have had hearing this ses-
sion. / have said to Mr.. Voorhees, and
Mr.. HALEY that would go with them
at any time before the senate committee
on territories and present the reasons for
annexation and urge the report of the
bill. | shall not cease my efforts to Sc
