JAPANESE ARE DEPORTED.
The West stowaways Returned to Japan.


immigration Inspector LAWN and the
board Of inquiry appointed to examine
into the legality of the landing of the
four Japanese women and three men,
who came from Yokohama as stowaways
on the A. J. West, decided against their
landing, and the Japs were taken to
Seattle Monday by W. H. Pear. on, to
be placed on a steamship for Japan.
The testimony all went to show that
the men were bringing the women to the
country for immoral purposes. Two of
the women testified that their father
had been paid 1000 yen, $1,000 for
them by one Of the men, named Amiura,
who has lived in California, and whom
the customs authorities look upon as a
professional procurer. :rhe very fact
of their coming on the West left them
open to suspicion. They said they paid
$25 each to man in Yokohama for their
passage, and the railroad fare from here
to San Francisco, where they were
bound, is $l8.45. AS they could have
come by steamer direct to San Francisco
for $35 each, it was tolerably clear that
their selection Of Grays Harbor was to
elude the customs authorities. The cost
Of their keep, guards and fare back to
Japan fall upon the owners of the A. J..
West, and Mr.. West accompanied the
party to Seattle to pay their bills.

THE NEW ROAD LAW.
To be Voted Upon At a Special Election
AUGUST ~.

~ Dc VOtSV OPVU ~ SPOSSaS 3sSSNV''
AUGUST ~.
The new road law, the adoption OF
rejection Of which is to be submitted to
the voters of Chehalis Co. on Aug. 81, is q
radical departure from the methods pur.
sued under the law now in force. The
following summary Of the act will give a
fair idea OF its workings.
1t first provides a very stringent
method Of collecting poll tax Of -. from
every male person, between the ayes oil
81 and so years, who has resided in the
state for six months or more. outside
the limits Of an incorporated city or town,
which is due and payable in money on
March l, each year. The county assess.
ors must make lists OF all persons liable
to poll tax, and make effort to collect
pay is to be reported to the county com
missioners, and employers may pay the
tax OF employees, and deduct the same
from their wages. All public officers in
the state are required to aid in the co..
lection Of this tax, and, when unpaid,
the auditor is to extend the same against
the real or personal property tax list oil
the delinquent. Prosecutions for the
collection OF this tax are concurrent, and
two or more may be prosecuted at the
same time.
The commissioners are to divide the
county into not more than four road dis.
tricts, and may not change such districts
oftener than once year. They shall
levy general tax Of not more than three
mills for road and bridge purposes each
year but may levy six mills additional
against the property in such road dis
tricts as they shall define for the con-
struction and repair of roads in such
districts. They may appoint supervisor
for each district, at not more than - per
day, whose duty it will be to keep the
roads and bridges in his district in as
good repair as funds will permit; to Ger
tify all bills for labor and material and
to make monthly report of all work
perfol med in his district. The supervis-
ors shall meet with the board of COM
missioners at each April session, to out.
line the road improvements to be made.
All road and bridge work, estimated
to cost $50 or more, must be let by COLI.
tract, and not more that 80 per cent Of the
amount shall be paid until the satisfac-
tory completion Of the work. If ma
jority of the votes cast lie in favor of the
adoption Of the law, it becomes operative
at once.

THEHOQUIAM PRESS
IS DECIDEDLY OUT OF HARMONY
WITH THAT CITY
In Opposing the Building Of the Aberdeen.
Montssano Wagon Road.-List Of hoquiam
SiSnsrs to the Petition for the Road.-The
hoquiam Editors Among Them.

The Hoquiam Gazette Indignantly
resents the statement of the HERALD
that the press of Hoquiam was opposing
the true interests of that city in oppos
ing the building of road from the
Harbor to Montesano, and intimates
that when it becomes manifest that
the Gazette is tout of harmony with its
surroundings, it will be in proper
mood to accept pointers from us.
Not so much with hope of convincing
the Gazette of the error of its ways, as
for the enlightenment of such of its
readers as are not conversant with the
road situation on Grays Harbor, and the
sentiment of the people of Hoquiam
toward the proposition of building the
Observation-Disclosures road THIS YEAR, we
print below the petition signed in Ho-
quiam and filed with the county COM
missioners April Is. The petition read
as follows:
To the Honorable Board Of County Com
missioners, Chehalis County, Wash. :
Whereas, more than one-half of the
population and taxable property of
Chehalis county-lying west of Monte
sano and north of the Chehalis river and
Grays Harbor-is entirely without wagon
road communication with the county
seat and outside points; and, whereas,
the cities of Aberdeen and Hoquiam
afford large market for the products Of
the farms in the eastern section of the
county, market that would be largely
increased werelthe means of communica-
ton more free.
Therefore, we, the undersigned
residents Of Chehalis county. respect
fully petition your honorable body to
build a road between Aberdeen and
Montesano, on the north side of the
Chehalis river, DURING THE PRESENT
YEAR. And your petitioners will ever
pray.
To this petition the following names
Of Hoquiam citizens were appended,
among which is found that of the Gazette
editor, who may now find that he is
tout of harmony" with himself:

Bicycle Tax Declared Unconsti tutional.

Judge A. l.. Miller, of the Clark
county superior court, has rendered a
decision declaring unconstitutional the
law allowing certain cities in the state
to collect license ON bicycles for the
purpose of raising money to build bicy-
Gle paths and roads. The grounds for
Judge Miller's decision are that the act
providing for the license embraces more
than one subject in it's title. and pro-
yides for double taxation. The case
came up for hearing ON an appeal from
the police court. Charles Nichols re-
used to pay the license OF 81 and was
arrested and fined IS and costs.
The case was brought for the purpose
OF testing the law, at the instigation OF
bicycle riders in Fruit valley and other
suburban districts, who deemed they
had cause for complaint on account of
the expenditure by the council OF q
small portion Of the bicycle tax fund for
repairing path through the city park.
skIrt.Wais9 Styles.
Two or three novelties in shirt-waists
are shown in the August Delineatorl and
will probably do more to create a sale
for that number among women than
any other styles shown at this season of
the year. The most notable feature in
shirt waists is that in which a diagonal
direction of the fabric from the shout
ders to the lower front is secured with
out cutting the fabric bias. 1t is novel
effect, and the Delineator shows several
shirt-waists cut in this manner. Another
great novelty in the August Delineator
is that of shirt-waist cut to produce a
pouch effect. 1t is called the Grecian
Pouch shirt-waist.

The position of paving teller in

L ne position Oh paying leIlcI III
bank in New Orleans is getting
to be an unlueky position. Last
week the paying teller in the
Hibernia National Bank stole
$50, 100000, and Tuesday of this
week the paving teller in Teu-
tonia Bank was found unconscious
in the bank after banking hours
with a pistol ball in his leg, and
the floor covered with money.
Eighteen thousand dollars escap-
ed in the melee, and when the
paying teller regains conscious
ness from that wound in the leg,
he can probably throw some light
on the matter. All he would say
was that two men tried to kill
him and rob the bank. The rob-
berS made a narrow escape with
their lives, as the paying teller 5
pistol got to shooting, and there
being no barrel of water handy
in which to throw it, he was una
bic to stop it from shooting until
it had emptied itself. The affair
is shrouded in mystery, and the
detectives are trying to solve it,
and no doubt they will in few
days, if the paying teller ever
gets able to talk.
