WESTMINSTER, Il. G.. May o2-ISpecial. l.
The nameless naphtha launch seized by
Collector Chantrell at Douglass on Friday
night is said to belong to man who gives
his name as John Wilson. Of Tacoma,
though the name is believed to be one as
sumcd for the occasion. Acting Collector
Grant heard the evidence in the cnse this
morning, which satisfied him that di-
rect attempt had been made to evade the
law and that the craft was used for snug
Cling purposes and nothing else. Mr..
Grant finally decided that q fine Of 500
would fit the case, which amount Wilson
declared his intention to pay.
The launch is provided with lockers ca
able of holding ! 900 pounds of opium, and
these are SO placed that few would notice
them at first glance. Wilson said his party
were on a hunting and fishing trip. but
neither fish line nor rod were on board.
There was ride, however. which was
kept in the pink of condition and loaded
with thirteen cartridges. The launch will
be released tomorrow. Chantreli alleges
that Wilson has been handling opium for

strangely enough. occasioned but little
comment. even among politicians. al.
though it is evident that in max
ing the division the commissioners
must have been shrewdly mindful
OF the political situation in the several
districts, as demonstrated BY the vote last
faii. The present commissioners are all
Republicans. Commissioner Gillette, Of the
First district, having been elected for four
years. and Commissioners McDaniels and
Maiioy for two years each.
As the boundaries are now established,
Fa'rhaven remains entirely in the
First district, which also includes
one ward of Whatcom and al.
the territory south to the Skagit
county line. This district is safely Reruh-
iieaa. In liking the boundaries OF the
Second aud Third districts, however, it is
clear that the commissioners must have
been influenced to a considerable degree by
the Populist vote. which was the unknown
quantity that 50 sorely vexed the political
students last fall. It will be remembered
that in proportion to the population the
PoPui;sis developed more strength in
this county at the late election

OF seventy-four votes over McGraw. From
their strongholds in the Nooksack valley
they issued forth in sxarms, whooping it
up.
The commissioners have established the
boundaries of the Second and Third dis
tric:s. comprising all the Nooksack valley,
so as to ingeniously divide the Populist
vote and make it of little avail
against the Old party candidates
for commissioners at the next election.
The greater part of Whatcom comes in the
Second district and its safe Republican
vote is expected 20 considerably more than
offset the Poprlist strength of Lynden
and vicinity. One Of the city wards is at
tached to the Third district TO help stand
off the Populist vote OF the lower Nook
sack precincts. and Commissioner Maltoy
