JUDGE RUDklN HOLDS
AGAINST H0P-GROWER
In the Case of H. Roberts Of Tampic0
versus Fechter, Poole & Janeck,
Decision PavOrs Buyers.

Another case which has been attract
ing wide attention in this county, as it
was looked upon in the nature of test
case, is the one brought by Fechter,
Poole & Janeck against H. Roberts, OF
Tampico, demanding delivery of hops
which were contracted at l0c per pound
a year or SO ago. Judge Rudkin holds
that the contract is binding and handed
down decision favorable to the firm.
Notice of appeal has been filed and H.
j. Snively attorney for Roberts is con-
fident of winning the case when it comes
up before the supreme court. The de-
cision is at variance from that recently
made by Judge Burnett, of Salem, Ore.
in which he holds that the contract is
nothing more than chattel mortgage
and can be relieved as soon as the money
advanced on same is refunded with in
terest. The Oregon contract however,
is said to be somewhat different from the
Washington form but Notwithstanding
this fact, the hop-buyers claim the de-
cision of Judge Burnett will be reversed
by the supreme court and that Judge
Rudkin will be sustained.

PROF. AND MRS. FLORES
GAVE CREDITABE CONCERT
Each and Every Number Well Re
ceived and Appreciated--Small
but Appreciatiye Audience.

The entertainment given at Larson g
theater last Wednesday evening by Prof.
and Mrs. Flores was met by small
audience due, no doubt, to the skepti-
cism of some people who could not quite
comprehend how pupil could be pre-
pared to appear in public, with any
credit to himself or instructor, after a
short course of only 20 lessons, or, in
other words, pupils who, five months
ago, did not know one note from another.
This being out of the ordinary the peo-
pie may be pardoned in a degree for
their lack OF patronage. But the people
are in error. The entertainment was
praiseworthy, and the professor demon
strated everything he claimed for his
pupils. 1t wa recital of amateur
musicians, to be sure, but in their
earnest and willing effort they eclipsed
many of the recitals given by more ma
tured minds and hands, and did them
selves proud in the opinion of majority
of those who heard them, which num-
bered probably IS people.
Those who went there expecting dis
cordant tones. mix-up in parts, or
timidity which generally affects the
amateur, were altogether disappointed.
Time and harmony, the basic principles
of all music, had been thoroughly in
stilled into their instruction, and each
pupil seemed to have accomplished these
essentials with ease.
Several of the pupils deserve especial
mention, and will certainly make their
mark high, but as no program was issued
it would be difficult to distinguish one
from another. However, the younger Of
the Bissell brothers, Mr.. and Miss Hulse,
Miss Jungst, Miss Loudon, Mr.. Bivens.
banjo artist, and little Clara Wallen are
certainly apt pupils. and under such
able instruction will soon become adopts
in the accomplishment of music.

Of GREAT INTEREST TO
YAKIMA HOP GROWERS
Judge Burnett, of Salem, OfegOn
Renders DeSiOn Favorable to
the Hop-GrOWerS.

1.-THE buyers contract is nOthiog more
than chattel mortgage" says Judge
Burnett of Salem, Oregon, 'and the con-
tract is at an end as soon as the money
advanced is refused with interest"
This is decision that has been looked
forward to by the hop growers with
much anxiety. 1t will doubtless mean
great deal to those who have already
contracted their hops at low figure
and have been unable to take advantage
of the present prevailing market prices.
The decision rendered was in the case
of A. F. Backhaus vs.. F. w. Buells, the
latter being the grower. Backhaus
brought suit to recover the hops and
Buells answered setting up the contract.
The reply ADMITTED the contract, and
thereupon the defendent, by his attor-
ney, George G.. Bingham, moved for a
judgement upon the pleadings. contend.
ing that the contract, through which
plaintiff claimed title, did not entitle
him to recover.
In this case the contract provides that
the hops are to be "raised and sold" by
the defendent and are ito be choice quail.

There is a conflict in sight between

rubs up against the commonwealth.
Secretary of State and Acting Govern
or Chatterton takes the opposite view
Of the matter-that the laws must first
be passed upon by the courts and not
the newspapers. One Of the two an
gust rulers must go way back but
which one remains to be seen.
MI. Chatterton. in an article quoted
in this impression OF The Republican,
takes the position that the laws should
be enforced until they are declared un-
constitutional by the supreme court
and not ignored by the officials be-
cause certain newspapers and persons
without authority have said they are in.

THAT is DESIGNED TO PREVENT
RAILROAD COLLISIONS IN
THE FUTURE.
IIIumines the Track for a Mile Ahead
and Throws Beam Of Light as
Far as a Mans Body Seven Hun
dred Feet In the Air-AppIied on
Big Milwaukee Engine.

Chicago, Feb. Instrumentation of
utility of a new departure, which it is
claimed by railway officials will solve
in a large degree the railway collision
problem, was made Wednesday night
on the Chicago. Milwaukee and St.
Paul road.
The device consists of an exceeding
ly powerful headlight, which not only
perfectly Eliminates the track with an
intensely brilliant shaft for a distance
of a mile, but also embraces the strik-
ing Inc novel feature of a beam of light
of almost equal brilliancy penetrating
over 700 feet above. which can be clear
~ seen ten miles. 1t is thereby posi-
BILE for approaching trains to absolute
ly locate each other by this vertical
shaft of light, though miles apart. and
it is this feature which railroad officials
claim will eliminate the possibility Of
collision. This vertical beam will, in
billy country especially, where curves
in the track are numerous. so positive
ly fix the location of trains that moth
ing but carelessness of the e~nginemen
will permit a collision.
The apparatus consists Of a powerful
electric arch headlight, a dynamo and
a steam motor, all Of which occupy the

voted to the headlight. The dynamo
which generates the current for this

is 6,000-candle-power, which can be re-

One of the heaviest passenger en-
| gines on the Chicago, Milwaukee and
St. Paul, experimentally equipped with
this headlight. drew a special train a
number of miles out Of Chicago, and
a demonstration of the working of the
apparatus was given under the super

REASON FOR COMING
TO THIS al

" no oINi 9.
The reason for SO many Colorado oil
companies Incorporating in Wyoming
has been the subject of not a little dis
cussion of late. During the past week
fifty-eight oil companies which will OPP
crate exclusively in Colorado incorpor-
ated under the laws of Wyoming. and
others are coming in at the rate of ten
and twenty per day.
The eason for this is that the laws
Of Wyoming ire more lenient than
those OF Colorado and the filing fee is
considerably less. The companies save
considerable money by going to Chey-
enne to incorporate and afterward fl
ing certificates in Colorado.
Another reason is that the compan-
les desire to be considered as foreign
corporations. This is desired in case
the company is at any time drawn into
litigation, when the case can be
brought in the United States courts.

SO Fierce Between Union

The Union Pacific system will prob

Montana parks" said a prominent Un.
ion Pacific official yesterday to an
Omaha Bee reporter. The adoption
OF some such radical scheme Is abso-
lutely necessary if the Hartman inter
ests are to compete successfully with
the Hill lines for that trade.
You see Hill can run stages over
from Cinnabar on the Northern Pa
cifc to Yellowstone park in a very
short time, as it is but seven miles dis,
tant. Our nearest station is Monida.
on the Oregon Short Line, fifty miles
away from the park. In order to com
pete at all we must establish a novelty
and a time-killer. Automobiles of
that trip in half a day. The present
stages take almost three times that
length of time and are tedious as well.
THE idea is that these automobiles
will be so alluring as vehicles for the
mountain wilderness journey that peo-
pie will prefer to go fifty miles in them
to seven in stages. We have never at
tempted this before, Or anything like
it., but the rivalry between these two
railroad interests is fiercer now than
ever. and will be pursued everywhere
possible.
"Of II it is not necessary for us
to put in the automobiles to the Yose-
mite park. as we already control that
business from the Southern Pacific.
However, another automobile stage

Washington. Feb. 14.-Even the
most ardent of the Schley
champions speak regretfully of the
tragedy of Admiral Simpsons life.
Admiral Sampson does not know he
has been retired, never will know. He
does not know what the outcome of
the Schley court of inquiry has thus
far been. He does not know that the
president has the final appeal from
Schley under advisement, and he does
not know that the president has receiv-
ed from his attorneys a brief. claim
ing all credit for him for winning the
battle at Santiago in July. 1898. His
mind is almost entirely gone. At times
there are brief intervals of intelligence,
but he cannot frame into words the
thoughts he may have.
Most of the time the admiral is quiet
and utterly oblivious of what is going
on around him. His physical deteriora-
ton has progressed steadily with the
loss of his mental faculties. He
breathes and he takes nourishmert,
but that is all. He is like the hulk of
a ship. ~dismantled, the engines rusted
and nearly useless. floating passively
with the tide and waiting for the final
breaking up.
The admiral's case is hopeless. He
Iaay die at any time, and he may sur
| viyo 1or days or weeks. AS the doctors
describe it. his life is slowly ebbing
away. He is weaker every morning
than he was the morning before.
Admiral Sampson was of humble or
igin. His father was a laborer in Pal
myra. Wayne county, N. Y. He had
eight children. of whom h present
rear-admiral was the oldest. He dug
| at bitches with his father when he was
a boy and turned his hand to whatever
labor came his way.
In 1857 there was a vacancy at An
napolis at the disposal of the congress
sional representative from Wayne
county district. whose name is long
since forgotten. He offered it to sew
eral of the well.to-do boys in the vii
lage. They all refused it. Then he
offered the place to young Sampson,
son of the laborer. and Sampson took
1t. He went to the naval academy and
graduated with credit.
SIMPSONS first sea service was on
