at Blackman's lake, one mile north Of
town, broke last night, causing tho great
surplus of water due to late rains to rush
down the creek bed into town. where it
caused considerable damage. The culvert
in the bed of the gulley, over which
greater portion of First street is built, was
lifted out by the flood, which later caused
First street to cave In at the corner of Av-
enue A. The fill of dirt was washed away
from the pianking on tho street, which
also fell in. and for while it was thought
the foundations of the buildings on the
south side Of the street were in danger Of
being washed away. A force was hurried
to the lake and damned the water at that
point, while crowds Of people at the scene
Of the damage did the same. Further
devastation was thus prevented. The
water stood several feet in the basement of
Blackman's grocery store and reached tho
basement in the Hagarty block. 1t 10

OLYMPIA. May Especial. The gover-
nor has appointed William H. B. McMar-
tin, of Everett, as prosecuting attorney for
Snohomi sh. vice 7. J. Dooley. deceased.
Before appointing Mr.. McMartin, Gov.
McGraw submitted to Attorney General
Jones the question as to whether the
position to be filled is state office to
which an appointment may be made by
the governor. Jones presented an opinion
in reply that it is a state Office and that
the governor must fill it by appointment
when vacancy happens, and that it is
not within the power of the board of
county commissioners to fill the vacancy.
The statutes say specifically that the
governor shall have the appointing power
in the case of vacancy in the office The
constitution says that the county commits
sioners shall fill any vacancy that may
occur in any county Office. The commits
sioners claim that the prosecuting attorney
is a county officer, but there is precedent
In the decision of court of record against
them. In the case of Smalley vs. Smell,
in Pierce county, Judge Frank Allyn de-
cided that it was a state Office. 1t will be
remembered that Col. f. NJ. Carr was
appointed to fill vacancy in the office
IN King county by Gov. Ferry. Gov
McGraw after having carefully examined
the law and recent decisions touching the
question, and fortified by Attorney-Gen-
eral Jones opinion, decided beyond any
doubt the appointing power was vested in
him, and he accordingly named Mr.. Nc
Martin, who was the choice of the Repub-
licans of the county. and who is said to be
a good lawyer. Republican members Of
the Snohomish bar and Judge Denny in
dorsed him and A. w. Frater presented
his name to the governor.
The board Of commissioners Of Snoho-
mish county is Democratic and will prob
ably refuse to recognize the governors ap-
pointment until compelled to do so.
