RUSSIAN THISTLE
Commissioners Begin War
Against Pesky Weed.
IS SAID TO BE ON THE INCREASE
Road Supervisors Instructed to Notify
Property Owners Where Weed
Is in Evidence.

The annual war of eXtermlnatlng
the Russian Thistle in Walla Walla
county has been commenced by the
board OF commissioners. Instructions
have been sent out to every road SUI
pervisOr in the county, to notify prop
erty owners where the thistle IS IN
evidence. to destroy plants at once.
Any supervisor who fails to notify
land owners is subject to a fine OF
$40, and possible removal from office.
Supervisors are given the power to
employ men to destroy the weeds up
on the land of any one who fails to
observe the order. The drastic meas
ures taken by the commissioners are
the result of the appearance OF the
thistle in parts of the county hereto
fore clear of the pest. Samples OF
the thistle. taken from the fields OF
William Reser south of Walla Walla,
were brought to the Statesman office
today by Supervisor Andy Taylor
who stated the pest was gaining a
strong foothold in many parts OF the
county. Beyond the Dacres home
stead, north of Walla Walla, big
patches Of thistle have sprung up, and
illicSS OCStIOH Gu at OlINc III SOO''
SOW their seeds to the winds for flu
ture crops.
The sample brought to the States
man office resemble very much the
rollicking tumble weed, which on
any windy day in most parts OF the
valley may be seen trundling glee
| fully along until some fence corner
gets in the way. While the tumble
| weed in some respects is almost as
| big a nuisance in fOuling wheat fields
as the Russian thistle, the roots are
comparatively short and strong vino
will invariably tear them loose, while
the thistle has long sinuous roots
that hold tight to the soil and resist
| the efforts Of the elements to dislodgt
| them
: UNLESS extreme measures are TAX
en- at once to destroy the thistle the
county will soon be Overrun with the
pest" Supervisor Taylor said this
morning. "PrOperty owners after
once being notified are required to de
stroy any weeds upon their property
If this is not done the supervisor is
given the authority to employ men tI
do the work and compel the lane

CLAIMS LAW is DEFECTIVE.
Flaw in the Cumulative Punishment
Act,

Seattle. July "A flaw has been
discovered in one of the laws passed
by the late legislature Of the state OF
Washington which will in all probable
ity invalidate and render void a par,
of the law which the legislators had
in mind when they framed the statute.
The act is what is known as the law
of cumulative punishment and is en-
titled fixing the penalty for persons
convicted of a second and third time
for felony
The law was destined to give the
courts authority to add extra punish
ment to criminals who were found
guilty Of grand larceny or petit lar
ceny when proof of their previous
conviction could be produced by the
prosecuting attorney and the court
could double or even triple the amount
of their punishment. But, unfOrtu-
nately. the lawmakers neglected to
state in the title of the bill that mis-
demeanOrs were included as we'll as
felOnies AS it stands now the title
refers to felOnies, but makes no ref
erence whatever to misdemeanOrs.
The defect in the law has been
called to the attention of a number of
the state lawmakers by Walter S.
Fulton, prominent young attorney
of the city, and for the last two terms
prosecuting attorney of King county.
In speaking of this law, Mr. Fulton
said:
"a law relating to cumulative SEN
fences was. passed by the last legisla-
ture similar to that now in force in
California and many other states Of
the Union. The wisdom of such a law
has long been apparent to the authOri-
ties by reason of the fact that many
faces are seen time after time in the
criminal docks of this county for SEN
tence. These criminals have been ar
rested and convicted of Offenses time
and again, bu: as soon as they serve
short sentence they are released
and continue their depredations upon
the community at large. If the records
II the court should be examined
many such cases would be found
Soft Snap for Petty Offenders.
1T is a we'll known fact that when
the winter begins to come on there
are many petty offenses committed.
These criminals undoubtedly commit
lHeSe SlilheS lOl tHe eApIeSS puIpOot
Of getting in the county Jail for a
short time say for sixty or ninety
days. While in Jail they have a good
home, two good meals per day. a
warm comfortable place to sleep. lots
| of books to read and all the tobacco
they can get from good-natured visi-
tors to the Jail. Now, remember
these persons are an expense Of about
forty cents per day to the county anG
the bills for prisoners run up to be
tween $500 and $500 per month
When the warm weather comes again
