forged the Endorsement Of the payee and pre-
sented the check through another party to the
bank for payment. Payment, however, was re-

that some one was trying to commit forgery
The young man looked very blank and allowed
the check to be retained by the bank and re-

He Defends the Action OF the East WASH
ington Citizens Association.

He Defends the Action OF the East wash
ington Citizens Association.
The board of trade last evening adopted reso-
lutions which accused the East Washington Citi-
Zens' Association of having injured the city by
its agitation and its misstatements Of the con-
duct of the public affairs of the city. The pres
ident of that association is Mr.. John W. Babson.
and when q STAE reporter saw him this morn
ing he confessed to having read the resolutions
relating to the association and said that he had
called a meeting of the executive committee for
this evening to consider the matter.
"Onr association" said Mr.. Babson, ''is or
ganized for the purpose Of advancing the ma
terial interests of the eastern section of the
city. In all our actions we have adhered closely
tothe object for which we were organized know
Of nothing that we have done to the injury Of
any other section of the city. We have called
attention from time to time to the system Of
expanding the money appropriated for public
Improvements and have shown that the eastern
section of the CITY not receiving q fair
share Of the public money. 1t has been due
mainly TO the efforts of the association along
these lines that during the past three
years the eastern section of the city
hes received fairer treatment. This fact
is shown by the figures quoted b the resolutions
adopted by the board last evening. Stin there
is property In the eastern section within one
mile Of the capital which has been paying taxes
for the past ninety years and which fronts on
streets that have never been improved, not even
the lines marked out. But as have said, East
Washington has been well treated for the past
three years, and it viii be the aim Of our asso-
ciation TO see that this policy is continued We
have no fight with any other section Of the city
