Yakima has set pattern for the other
counties of the state, in the way OF ar
ranging for stock, agricultural, horti-
cultural and mechanical exhibit, which
some of them are not slow in following,
but the conditions here are better in
every way than in most sections, and from
having a county fair We have graduated
and propose to ask Washington and the
contiguous states TO join us in our Ex-
position and Indian Jubilee. We will
have attractions which should bring peo-
pie here from the great northwest and
they will be well repaid for their journey.
The full report of the decision OF the
supreme court in the case of Schmidt w.
the City of North Yakima has been re-
ceived by attorneys here. The decision
is by Dunbar, and all the justices con-
cured. The findings of the lower court
were affirmed, and strong opinion rem
dered. Messrs. Whitson & Parker, attor.
neys for the city, to day received notitica-
ton from Olympia that the motion of
appellant, by his attorneys, for new
trial had been over-ruled and the de-
csion is, therefore, final.
Lemons are quoted in Tacoma at one
fifth less this week than last, esd the
price is still going down. Here in Yak
ina one or two merchants seem to be
raising them, for some unaccountable
reason.
1t is claimed that there is less water in
the Yakima river than has been known
at this season for twenty-three years.
The other streams hereabouts are also
unusually low.
Auditor Hall to-day issued license to
wed to George II. Glazier and Miss Ida
Weikel, both well known young people
of this county.

William Uthe, the "Blue Front"
butcher, is this week mourning the loss
of SIS IN cash, which he paid to George
Secup, an Indian, for a cow and a calf,
and which latter he had to deliver to
their rightful owner, Thomas Mckay, OF
the reservation, within half day after
he had purchased them. The Indian
was found before he had spent all of the
money, and lodged in the county Jail.
He had bought a IS hat, fine, gaudy
pair of blankets, and several other
"ictas" dear to the siwash heart. He
had So. 25 in cash left when Sheriff Dilley
took him in charge. He confessed to
that officer that he had stolen the ami
mails, and he will probably be given an
opportunity to-day to make the same con-
fession to U. S. Commissioner Hen
ton. He has been before that official
once before on the same charge, but es-
capped punishment on account of q flaw
in the information filed.

The supreme court on Saturday filed
it's findings in the case of the State of
Washington, appellant, vs.. William
Feamster, respondent, from this county.
The judgment Of the lower court was re-
versed. This action places Feamster, at
the expiration OF thirty days time, at
the mercy Of the officers OF the law-if he
can be found. Il will be remembered
that Feamster, while intoxicated, fred
Eve shots at II. l.. Tucker while the latter
was endesvoring to eject Feamster, John
Ormsby, "Col. Kid" Belleveaux and Os-
car Elliott, a waiter at the Hotel Ather-
ton, from his barn. Ormsby and Feam-
ster were the aggressors. both had guns,
and both wanted "gore" from Elliott's
body. The trouble arose over a woman.
Upon Mr.. fuckers interfering Feamster
began shooting-none of his bullets,
however, taking effect. Ormsby fed the
country, while Feamster stood trial and
was found guilty of assault with intent to
commit murder. Upon motion OF his at
torney. II. J. Snively, he was discharged,
however, Judge Graves holding that the
information was faulty. The supreme
court has now reversed Judge Graves de-
cisien; and Fesmster, if ever caught,
must suffer whatever penalty the judge
may impose. Attorney W. L. Jones
fought the case for the state in the SUI
preme court, Edward Pruyn, of Ellens-
burg. defending Fesmster's interests.
Under the law Feamster could not be APP
pretended on this charge for thirty days,
even were he to return to Yakima; but
he is under the ban for all time, and the
future may see him returned to this city
for punishment.

Sheriff Dilley on Tuesday picked up"
Eddie Hensley, youth OF Is. who was
sent from this county to the reform
school three years ago and paroled in the
fall of 1894. Eddie has hardly lived up
to his parole, in that Sheriff Parker, of
Pierce county, wanted him for stealing a
horse and delivery wagon in Tacoma,
driving it to Puyallup and selling it.
Sheriff Dilley took the youthful criminal
to the sound and turned him over TO
Sheriff Parker ON Saturday. TO the local
officers Hensley denied his guilt, saying
that his brother was the bad boy; but to
the prisoners confined in the county Jail
he confessed that he was the party who,
like the hero of Carleton's cover the
Hills from the Poor House, had his
hands entangled in "the other end OF the
halter strap" If convicted on his
charge, it may be that young Hensley
will find himself behind penitentiary
bars instead of under espionage at the
reform school. A second offense often
meets such punishment.

cision in Street Grade Case.
A LARGE SUM Is INVOLVED

half "A Million.

Olympia, Wash, Oct. 21.-The de-
cision of the supreme court, filed today
in the case of the city of Spokane, APP
pellant. vs.. w. w. Stevens ct al, re-
spondents, is one of far-reaching effect
in this state.
This was an action brought by the
city to foreclose a lien created by an
assessment for street grading. a de-
murrer was interposed to the COM
plant, alleging, nrst, mat the com
plant did not state facts sufficient to
constitute action; second, that this ac-
ton was not commenced within the
limit prescribed by law.
The time for commencement of an
action says the opinion, is provided
for in the code procedure by sections
112 to 120. The limitation on actions Of
this kind is not specifically provided for
in any of the sections antecedent to
section 120, but that section provides
that, AN action for relief not herein
before provided for shall be commenced
within two years after the cause OF
action shall have occurred
1t seems plain, says the decision, that
the provisions of section 1872, viz: Lin
1tatfOnS prescribed in this act snail ap-
ply to actions brought In the name of
the state or any other public corpora
ton therein, or for it's benefit, brought
in the same manner as actions for pri-
vate parties" calls for no construction,
and it can not be consistently held that
a municipal corporation was not con-
templated by said section. To strength
en- this idea section Ill provides:
THAT actions can only be commenced
within the periods herein prescribed
after the cause of action shall have
occurred, except when in specific cases
a different limitation is prescribed by
statute"
No different limitation having been
prescribed by statute for the COM
mencement of actions of this kind, it
would seem that further comment is
unnecessary The judgment is affirmed.

ing ground where the new university
library building is to stand, and afford
ed accommodations for several thous
and spectators.
Public exercises were held between
2 and o'clock p. m Chancellor Epson,
from the state board Of regents, made
the principal address, which was 20
minutes in length. Ten-minute ad-
dresses were given by three or four col
lege presidents. The venerable presi-
dent of the council, DR.. Charles Butler,
spoke. He is "a years old. but is still
vigorous. Besides the formal opening
of the grounds and buildings at Univer-
sity Heights, an important part of the
program was the breaking of ground
for the new university library building,
which is also to be an administrative
building, with a commencement hall
seating 1900 persons and a museum hall
200 feet in length.
Chancellor II. M. McCracken, D. D,

1910. He studied theology at Princeton
and at German universities. He was a

and Toledo. He became chancellor of
the Western Pennsylvania university
in his fortieth year, and four years
later was removed to the New York
university.

OF Hills Code, which says: 1.-THE linn
itations prescribed in this act shall APP
ply to actions brought in the name OF
the state, or any county or other public
corporation therein, or for It's benefits,
in the same manner as to actions by
private parties" In support of this
construction Il long list of authorities
was also cited
The city set up the claim that they
appeared for the assessment districts,
which were not corporations and there
fore incapable of appearing for them
selves, and as such they could not be
guilty of laches, and that for this rea-
son the statute of limitations could not
run against them The respondents con-
tended that the city appeared for and
on behalf of the assessment districts,
were agents of the same, and that the
contracts and warrant holders could
not themselves be held responsible for
the commissioners of the city. They
furth,r held that the extension of the
statut, of limitation passed on March
20, 1898 was not retroactive, since 1t
was not so specified in the law, and
that a tax claim once barred was barred
for all time.
1.-THE amount covered by this de-
ClSloll, 9dlu Coi POI btlOil SouilSel IluHl~
mer last evening, will be in the neigh
borhood of $25 900. Those who have been
making the statement that 1t will
amount to something over 100000 are
mistaken in the decision. The taxes
relieved under the new charter, and
which are the most Of the taxes of this
kind in the city, are not yet two years
past due, and therefore the statute Of
limitation could not run against them"
Campbell w. BUSHNELL who argued
the case before the supreme court for
Stevens. has returned and said that in
his belief the amount Of the taxes that
would be uncollectab1e against the
property on street grade assessment
would amount to $465 900.

Effect of the Decision, as Construed in
This City.

This City.
The decision received in this case, While
the amount directly involved is small,
is Of great Importance and far-reach-
ing in it's bearing, since the text of the
decision is to the effect that all taxes
of this kind on which no effort has been
made to collect are outlaWed in two
years. By some it is estimated that in
this city this will amount to $25, 900,
while by others it is placed as high
as $465, 900. Whatever the amount may
be, the warrants will have to be paid
out of the general fund of the city
rather than the special assessment
levied against the property abutting
on the street improved.
The case of the city against w. w.
Stevens was for $3.50 assessment for
street Improvements on Mallon street.
The tax was levied on the 4th of May.
1890, and suit was commenced to en-
force the collection on the 18th of Aug
ust, 1894. The defendant demurred to
the complaint and the lower court sus-
tanned the demurrer. From this ruling
the city appealed The defendants con-
tended that the statute of limitation
barred the action and cited in support
Of this contention HilPs Code, section
100, which says: 'An action for relief
not hereinbefore provided for shall be
commenced within two years after the
cause of the action shall have &C.
Cured" The city on the contrary
claimed that this statute did not APP
ply, that the statute was silent on the
subject and therefore the rules Of com
mon law held good. The respondents
further contended that the statute of
limitations was statute in repose and
cited long list of authorities in sup
port of this construction. The city held
that the statute of limitation did not
apply to municipal corporations, while
the respondents referred to section 222

Walla Walla, Oct. 19.-Clara Harle
was at one time a staunch member
and supporter Of the Salvation Army in
this city, but she fell from grace and
became an inmate of house of ques-
tionable reputation. She had a lover
and the two quarreled, which was more
than substantiated by two black streaks
under Clara's eyes. She had said that
she would at some time commit suicide
and at $50 last night she attempted to
place herself into an everlasting sleep
by taking a, good quantity Of chloro
form.
officer Morse was the first one to
hear of the trouble and at once visited
the place, where he found the woman
under the influence of the drug. DR..

work. saved the womans life, who to-
day was resting easily.
