The case of the Territory of Ari- zona vs. the State Of Arizona I'm provement Company has been be- fore the Supreme Court, at Phenix. this week. The last legislature passed an act to authorize the leas- ing of convicts for internal improve ments and the late board of control entered into a lease for a term of years with the improvement com pany. Of course the lease gives the territory the worst of it, but the lower court holds the lease to be a good one and the territory must carry out its part of the agreement. The Supreme Court will probably affirm the decision of the lower court.

The Kansas City Times says. "Congress should give the cotton growers, the corn, wheat, oats and barley growers, the pumpkin and persimmon producers, and live stock and other agricultural inter- ests protection while it is at it. The manufacturers are the salt of the earth, but they are not all of it.. Farmers, laborers, tradesmen and professional men supply few grains of it. All of them are en- titled to a slice of the republican pumpkin pie while it is being passed around" The only protec- tion the farmers need is protection from the greedy hogs who want to plunder them with high tariff.

ExTRAvAGANCE Ar PULLMAN.
Appropriation Expended SO Fast
That the College May Close.

Special Dispatch to the Post-Inteiligencer.
OLYMPIA. Sept. 1.-The Tacoma Ledger
of this morning contained lengthy dis
patch from Pullman which reflected upon
the management of the agricultural COLI
lege showing that the regents OF that IN
stitution had been reck1essly extravagant
and that this must inevitably result In the
school being closed before another meet
ing Of the legislature, as under the present
law no deficiency can be created and. In
the event of the depletion OF the nainte-
nance fund, the institution viii have no
other resource than the Hatch and Morrill,
fund.
An examination of the records in the
state auditors Office verifes the figures
contained In the Pullman dispatch. The
whole appropriation for maintenance was
s27. In the first four months of the ifs.
cal year the regents audited accounts to
the amount OF $12. 335. 60. Regarding this
matter the governor said today:
at occurs TO me that the Republican pa
pers are rendering good service when they
expose tire shortcomings Of their own
boards of trustees. The Ledger's dispatch
from Pullman shows that a deficiency OF
s. 900 was created by the board of trustees
serving under a Republican government.
The new board inherited that deficiency.
Efforts are under way TO reduce expenses
at the agricultural college. I have no
doubt that business methods and cautious
expenditures win keep the institution well
within It's appropriation during the next
TWO years"
The new beard referred to by the gov
ernor in the above Is In fact the old board
with little change, as three which c0nsti-
tutes a majority. were members OF the old
board ard now form the working majority
OF the new one. The three old members
that were retained by Gov. Rogers are
fusionlsts which fact probably accounts
for their being continued In Office.

TACOMA Sept. 1.-The trial or civil

fore the city council was brought TO
conclusion this evening, the sixteen mem
bers voting in favor of his removal from
Office. II was left for this last portion
of the hearing, however. 10 bring out
some very eondemnatory evidence or a
rather sensational character. 1t came
from a woman of the town, Irene Stew
ems. who is the proprietress or resort
on Opera alley.
She testified that Teats had come to
her in his official capacity and had asked
her whether Il would be worth $40 a
month TO her 20 have all downtown re-
sorts close and allow only houses on
opera alley 10 remain open. When TINS
statement had been made by the witness
the prosecution turned her over TO 1esits
for cross-examination, but the ex-eon-
missioner received no satisfaction 10 MS
questions. She declined 10 say when she
first made public this statement, or 20
whom il was made, and told Teats that
the women on the alley expected 10 nay {
to pay for any favors they got from the
civil service commission. Nnen Keats
made an effort TO get at the source or
this blow, the woman positively declined
to talk.
The subscription list signed by civil ser
vice employees who had agreed 10 pay Ieals
certain sums for legal services again came
before the council p. A. Peterson testinea
he would never have subscribed 50, as ne
did. excepting that 1t was understood lhat
by so doing he was TO secure poslioh dS
dam tender He had not secured the po-
sition and had refused to pay the money
subscribed.
When the last of the evidence had been
heard II was Owens, Populist, who intro
duced a resolution in response 10 the chalr
call for some action. The resolution was
IN effect, that the charges against Ieais
had been proven, and that 1t was the voice
of the council that Teats be removed from
his position as a membsr of the civil ser
vice commission. After the reading or the
resolution the charges were called Tor.
Briefly, the charges are incompetency'
neglect of duty and prostitution of his OF
flee for private gain. After they had been
read Owens moved the adoption OF his
resolution. Leo Fusionist. seconded the
motion and then the vote was polled. Ev-
cry member answered yea when his name
was called, Republicans and Fusionists
alike voting TO Dust the commissioner.
After the result had been declared Teats
told a Post-1nteldg ncr representative
that he intends to carry the matter into
The courts without delay.

that the stranger. whose name he gave as

Doebl's statement does not bear out the
evidence n the case. In the arst place the
bullet did net go clean through Doebit
consequently il could not have broken the
glass. More than tbs. there was no pow
der on feitz and there was on Doebas
which must have followed the shot Of the
