A WHATCoM county woman recently
broke her leg while dancing, and has
engaged firm of Seattle lawyers to
bring action against her partner for
contributory neglect. She insists
upon this form of action. There is

nothing more could be expected from

The Swinomish Flats, have long
held the palm for big oat yields, will
have to look to her laurels hereafter
Several farmers on WILDLY have this
year produced over 100 bushels per
acre. Thomas Calhoun had seven
acres that yielded ITO bushels to the
acre, and this on land that has been
cultivated for 40 years. Alonzo Case
from 4 acres on the Halter place
near Oak Harbor, threshed $50 bush
els of is, over 146 bushels to the
acre. John Gillespie broke the record
in threshing for E. J. Hancock last
Friday and Saturday. In III hours
his machine ran out 260S bushels OF
grain-1736 bushels of wheat, S73 bush
els of oats.-Island Co. Times.
ALL secret organizations have their
signs of recognition, danger, warning
and salutation, and since the great
strike some of the workmen who fail
ed to be taken back are much exercis-
ed over the possibility of the railway
officials employing signs of recogni-
ton and warning. Since the strike
men seeking employment are required
to bring clearance from their last
company. The men claim that all
the companies are using a sheet OF
paper on which to write these recon-
mendations, having the figure of a
crane on it, and while the writing NAV
indicate that the bearer is all right
the position of the animal On the
paper which is invisible except to close
observation, really determines the an
plicants standing. In this manner
by a secret code OF signals between
the railways, the men assert, they can
write them a letter, and by using
paper with the figure OF a crane indi-
eating dissatisfaction, prevent their
securing work. The men are very
much alarmed.-West Coast Trade.

cases were totally lost, as I understood
his articles. 1t is true that Nj. Trem-
per also expressed the same opinion
as was informed by Mr.. Peters. Also,
| was informed by Mr.. O'Neill that
lawyer, whose name he would not
give, but that he was sometimes en-
ployed by the Port Blakely Mill Co,
had given him the same opinion.
Whether Mr.. Lott took his law fro n
Mr.. Tremper or Mr.. Tremper took his
from Mr. Lott, the fact remains that
about that very time the case OF
Peterson ct al VS. Sayward was decid-
ed in opposition to the opinion OF
those learned gentlemen.
While Mr.. Tremper may be an
authority on some subjects, it strikes
me forcibly that he is unacquainted
with professional ethics, and I think
this to be fitting opportunity to
point out two things: first, that if he
drew the lien of Mason Co Cent r r
Co on Mcleod logs, Doyle VS. Mcleod,
4 Wn 1872, his unskillfulness cost his
client the amount of the lien, and
he can hardly pose as an authority in
lien cases, and secondly, that by his
associations he can be well suspected
by the logging element of entertain
ing love for them, like to that OF the
wolf for sheep. The learned gentle
man cited by Mr.. O'Neill must re-
main, fear, a mythical parsonage
but I would like to know if it is cor
rect, that the firm of Mcdonald &
O'Neill, or of the senior partner, were
indebted to the Port Blakely Mill Co.
as [ have been informed, for serious
favors rendered in, the extension OF
credit in the inception OF the bust
ness career of the firm. II so, this
might in some measure deserve in
quiry as one of the causes prompting
a seemingly foolish course in promot-
ing disse nsion evidently hostile to the
interests of the case.
Mr. O'Neill does not feel any loss OF
faith, as alleged in the Tribune's arti-
Gle, nor could he, after | have saved
him So, 500 by my skill, according to
what Mr.. Lawler had said of Mr.
Munday's opinion in the Bank OF
Shelton case. Judge Gordon who was
called in consultation expressed a
like opinion. I am not unmindful OF
the fact that Mr.. Tremper also ex-
pressed an opinion that | couldn't
sustain, as [ was informed, the attach
ments in the case.
[ don't exactly know what is meant
by charging me with ingratitude to
those that led and benefited me, but |
opine, that by it is meant small
amount of credit given me by Mr..
O'Neill, to the amount Of about $40,
once when I was short, for which,
however, he had ample security, it
was paid in short time, and | viewed
it as business transaction with the
firm of Mcdonald & O'Neill.
If the plumbers which the Tribune
charges be pointed out, it would SIM
plify the matter very much, and until
that is done it strikes me that the loss
of faith is manufactured to serve the
purposes of their i'll will regardless OF
the, interests of the men.
think I am justified in doubling
the ability Of those gentlemen to put
me into my political and professional
grave, unless they can effect it by
lying and slandering.

ENGLISH YACHTING TALK.
Field Glad the vigilant Is Allowed to
Race For the Queens Cup.

LONDON, May 20-The Field today in
its yachting article says: 1t was an I'M
fortunate piece of cauriousness which
ruled the Navahoe out of the Royal west
ern match in August last. AS general
principle it would be absurd for the state
to provide prizes for foreign competitors,
but there may be occasions when it would
be polite TO do so; or at any rate, not to
place obstacles in the way of foreigner
competing for prize such as the queens
cup.
We are informed that the visit of the
Vigilant depended upon whether she
would be allowed to compete for the
qneen's cup The question was put to
the Royal Dorset Yacht club, and the
the sailing committee, fully approaching
the Importance of visit from the Vigil
liant, promptly assented. We think that
every one will agree that the committee
has taken the correct and broad view OF
the situation. 1t is of the greatest i'm
portance that the Vigiant should COM
pete in our regattas this season and it
would have been a disappointment OF
farreaching consequences if the Royal
Dorset Yacht club had taken a red tape
view of the trust imposed on them.

Mr.. Yates will also have the fast young

no record, but show very fast gait and
will probably beat 80 this year. In the

THE loss of these young men, in who's
memory we come together this morning
is an unprecedented disaster. Never sine,

of Harvard men were dying on the battle
field reached here, has such multiplied
calamity come upon us. These young
men were taken away with n shocking
suddenness just as they were grasping the

BLAND is SATISFIED.
Says Missouri Platform Is Right In Prin-
ciple and Policy.

ST. LOUIS, May 20-In All interview,
Representative r. p. Bland said of the
platform adopted at Kansas City: 1T Is
right-right in principle and right in
policy We do not want silver mono
metallism any more than we want gold
recommendation. The Democracy of Mis-
souri, does not flaunt red flag in the face
of any section or any class of its citizens.
1t demands justice and right, and that,
too, without reading anybody out of the
party or questioning the honest convit-
tions of any Democrat anywhere.
Il do not see how we could have made
better platform. 1t is plain and direct
without being offensive to the minority
If we cannot carry this state Upon the
Kansas City platform by an old time ma
jority then we could not have carried ii
at all. My own opinion is that if we had
failed to declare the principles which the
majority of Democrats in this state are
known to entertain and which more than
three-fourths of the counties directed
their delegates to support and secure to
the platform, we would almost have
been wiped out as a party in Novem Der
next The people are in no mood for
foolishness or deception"

MAYOR AND PRIESTS.
Bad Feeling Between Them Over Dis

play at Funerals.
PARIS, May 20.-For some time past a
dispute has existed and has caused much
bad feeling between the priests of St
Denis and the mayor of that town, st
Denis is situated five miles from Paris
and is chiefly celebrated from the fact
that it was the principal burial place OF
the kings of France. The mayor recently
took objection to the elaborate display
made by the priests in the funeral pro
cessions which accompanied the remains
of distinguished people to the tomb. The
mayor Communicated with the priests
and insisted that this display must cease.
The priests in reply claimed that they
were not violating any law or municipal
regulation and the display of emblems
was continued. Finally the mayor ap-
peaied to the government and the council
of state was called upon to decide the dis
pute. Decision was rendered Saturday
the council of state holding that funeral
professions in which religious emblems
are displayed may be prohibited by the
mayor if the latter is of the opinion thai
such display is likely to cause public
dis burbance.

Some of the boys who drive express
teams here have very careless way of
shouting to their horses to start as soon as
the team is loaded and then gathering up
the reins, which are usually laid across the
back of the horse. A case of this kind
happened at the depot, Saturday afternoon,
and it is a wonder that fatal accident did
not result, as the horse got beyond the con-
troll of the driver and struck a carriage in
which were seated man and little boy, the
son of Mr.. Frank Boston, throwing the
boy out SO that the wheels passed over
him. The little fellow was at once picked
up by his father and hastily conveyed in a
cab to his home, where it was found that,
beside slight scalp wound and a cut on the
under lip, the boy was unipiured, although
he received a severe fright and shaking up.
1t should be a warning to those who have
these express teams in charge to use more
caution in the future.

URGED TO WITHDRAW.
Effort Being Made to Pull Breckenridge
Out of the Congressional Race.

LEXINGTON, Ky, May 20.-Colonel
Breckenridge is being urged by score of
persons here. representing the best class
of citizens, to withdraw from the con-
gressionai race.
His friends forwarded to him petition,
in which they state that it is impossible
for them to overcome the terrible opposi-
ton and that it is the desire of the voters,
representing the honor of the district,
that he get out of the way and allow his
friends to run n man who will do honor
to the district. They do not like w. c..
Owens and desire to run some other man.
Should Colonel Breckenridge withdraw
George b. Kinkead will enter the contest,
1t is said that the data is being secured
by Colonel Breckinridge's friends for the
purpose of printing a pamphlet telling of
the shortcomings of Colonel Breckin-
ridges opponents in the congressional
