The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1900-11-01


cial club met on Saturday last and among
other matters for consideration was the
letter OF the state fair board asking for a
full investigation of the books OF that
body. Messrs. Weed, Donald and Hors-
lev spoke in favor Of such a proceeding
as being only justice to the members who
had been assailed in public print, and as
a protective measure for securing APP
preparations in the fut ure, and while all
the speakers expressed themselves as to
their belief in the integrity of the MEM
bers of the commission, Mr.. Englehart
strongly opposed such course as he said
the findings which would be made would
be circulated in every school house in the
county and be found at every polling place
by election day. The request for an in.
vestigaton was finally Indefinitely laid
on the table. Every member OF the
board was a republican. All that was
asked was an investigation as matter
of public welfare. 1t was refused. The
question has since been asked if it would
not be an appropriate thing for the club
to change it's name? Messrs. Epglehart,
Robertson and few more of the partisan
members of the governing board will be
given space in these columns to answer.
VIM. Dixon and young girl II years
Of age were up before Justice Taggard a
few days ago for unlawful cohabitatlcn i.
The girl and her sister have been enjoy
ing good deal of freedom and on several
occasions have stayed out all night.
Their parents came here from Oregon to
pick hops and have been living in tent
near the school section. When the girl
in question had been gone for three
nights in succession the father started
upon tour of investigation and finally
located her in company OF Dixon in g
room in one Of the lesser hotels. The
father. however, refused to make a COM
plant and Dixon took the first oppor-
tunity to get as far away as possible from
! the scene Of bis crime, for cohabitation
with girl under the age of consent is a
states prison offense.
