Because Of the LIGHTS opposi-
ton to the county courthouse office

ness devolves and who in are a posi-
tion to accommodate reporters with
legitimate public news, seem to be
trying to "play even" by boycott
ting the LIGHT man, and with
holding the news he has right to
expect from them. Such littleness
on their part is contemplate and

sent.

TACOMA's ROLLING MILL.

Tacoma, July S.-SpeciaL-Soine weeks
ago Richard Brown and others. owners of
the Western. Iron and Steel Company. who
were induced 10 remove their rolling mill
tlaut from Burlington. Ia. TO Lakeview.
near here on promise of cash subsidy
of $1,000 and land. brought suit against r.
Il. Lehman and others, who signed ihs
subsidy note for 81 500 of the amount.
which had not been paid. Today Mr.. Len
man and his associates on the note fled
their answer to the suit. They represent
that Msssrs Brown. r. NJ. Joyce, VI. t.
Evans and II. G.. Hamilton. owners of the
Burlington plant. secured the subsidy note
from them on claims regarding the plant
that have now been proven untrue. In the
first place, the answer alleges. IL was
claimed the mill would have a capacity
OF eighty tons daily. whereas IL has a ca
pacity Of but thirty tons. IL was repre-
sented the plant represented an investment
OF $500. coo, while in reality IL represents a
total capital invested of but $4,000 The
owners Of the plant further claimed the
mill would give employment to 400 men.
while. so the answer alleges. there can be
found work for no more than 100. Again.
the owners represented that there would
be monthly pay roll of s24,0oo while II
is impossible for there TO be pay roll of
more than $500 a month. In addition 10
all this. the millmen claimed that six
buildings would he required to house the
plant. and that fifty acres of ground would
be covered by them. To this the answer
charges that only two buildings. occupy
ing but one acre. are required, and that
they are the only ones that have been
built. The answer then goes on to say
that the mill people represented that Rich
ard Brown. with a credit of s3.0oGGH
would back the enterprise. but he is not
even stockhoIder in the concern. and his
credit ia not one-half of the amount
named.
The great distance from here to Bur-
lngton is set up as excuse for the sign
ers OF the subsidy note not acquainting
themselves more fully with the character
OF the plant before they executed the in
strument.
The application of III. Joyce for receiv-
er for the mill came up and was continued,
this time until next week.
