Married WOmen's Rights.

The land Office at Seattle has re-
ceived an interesting decision. 1t
concerns the right of a married woman
to make entry of government land.
The case was that of the United States
VS. Matte E. Gilmore, involving a tim
ber land entry for 160 acres. The en-
try was contested because the woman
was married and her husband gave
her the money with which to pay for
the land, and that said entry was
made for his good and benefit, he
having already used his right to make
timber land entry.
Commissioner Lamoreaux SAYS that
it has been uniformly held that the
rights of married woman to make
entry under the desert land law or the
timber or stone acts depends on the
laws of the state or territory in which
the land lies. The right of the wife
to own land Ill her own name free
from the debts of her husband is
guaranteed by the laws of the state of
Washington. Therefore, Mrs. Gill
more has perfect right to own the
land in question. The mere fact of
her receiving the money from her
husband with which to pay for the
land does not vitiate her title. Any
collusion or fraud charged must be
proved by other evidence.-Spokane

SHELTON. MASON FRIDAY AUGUST 1894
Resolutions Of Respect.

Adopted by the Native Sons in
Memory of Judge Briggs.
MIR. PRESIDENT. The distinguished
pioneer Mr.. Albert Briggs, to whose
memory we offer a brief tribute, was
born in the state of Vermont in the
year 1913, at which time the country
which he was destined to assist in de-
veloplng was scarcely known. Ohio
was then considered the far West, and
Wisconsin, Iowa, Oregon and our own
native state were totally unorganized
uninhabited, unexplored and un-
known; yet during his fourscore years
1T was his privilege and pride to assist
in building no less than four of the
states now in that vast empire, but his
best ard greatest efforts were given to
| developing the state of Washington.
This hardy pioneer arrived in what
is now Jefferson county in the sum-
mer of 1852, in company with the
late j. G. Clinger and their families,
where they found A. A. Plumer, L. B.
Hastings and F. w. Pettygrove, now
all deceased, and the intimate ac-
qualntance and friendship of this
worthy band of brave pioneers was
not broken. until now the last of the
band has gone to rejoin those gone be-
fore.
To those early pioneers we, their
children and grand children and ali
others who enjoy life in this vicinity
owe a greater debt than has or ever
can be paid. 1t was their sturdy man
hood, their energy and enterprise that
enabled them to brave the trials, pri-
vations and hardships necessarily en-
dured in blazing trail of civilization
and establish American liberty on the
shores of this far Northwest. Few of
brave men lived to see their hopes
fully realized, and thus receive the
reward they so we'll deserved. Many
of them now rest in obscure graves,
and the present generation, that owes
so large debt of gratitude to them has
failed to record their history or recog-
nize their self-sacrifcing labors.
AS Native Sons of Washington one
of the purposes of our organization is
topreserve the history of these pioneers
of civilizatio n and to educate those
who follow them to hold them in low
| ing remembrance Therefore we do
recommend that the history of this
honored citizen be secured, and with
this brief acknowle dgement of our
recognit ition of his virtues and iabors
be placed in full upon the records Of
Jefferso n Camp No. l, Native Sons of
Washington, and copy of this report
properly engrossed, be sent to the
family of the deceasse d.
|. Respectfully submitted,

A Corporation Farmer.

If farmer of this state were to
form a syndicate for the cultivation
of farm with $4,000 capital stock
and the first year should declare a
dividend of eight per cent, and the
next year by reason of unexceptional
success should find that the profits
amounted to 80 per cent, he would
then be in a position to water his
stock. What would he do? He would
straightway issue $4,000 worth more
of stock and hand it around among
the stockholders in proportion to the
number of shares each had, and
where the year before the company's
capital was but $4,000 it would now
be worth 100000, because it could
pay a 12t per cent dividend on $780,
600.
Rut next year owing to a failure OF
crops instead of earning Yl2,5OO
he would find himself able to distrl-
butte $1,000 among the shareholders
or only five per cent dividend; and
now in order to increase this dividend
he would be justified Gas Pullman is)
in reducing the wages of all his en-
ployes so as to enable him to distribute
an eight per cent dividend. 1t would
be right for him Gas it is right Tor
Pullman) to take $4,000 from the
works and give it to his shareholders.
And Notwithstanding he is paying
80 per cent upon the actual capital
invested ($25.00O) he can say to the
world, inasmuch as he is paying only
eight per cent on the watered capital,
that the reduction is necessary to do
business, and if you don't believe it
YOU can "examine my books. =
