The defendants attorney lodged and

ChampOuX's attorney argued for a
new trial for his client on thirty-three
different counts. The principal ones
were that the court erred in submit

A LAW BY NEXT THURSDAY.

tacit understanding among the more

that this plan OF assault would be eX-

1t is the purpose Of the big houses
in the several cities in Washington
to pool their interests in a cOncen-
trated effort to annihilate the statute
at the earliest possible moment. To
this end an arrest and prosecution will
be launched in Spokane. The de

court overrule the demurrer. an ap-

Grow Worse.

SpOkane-The whole story Of the
high school quarrel has not been
published. a petition signed by APP
proximately 400 of the 75O students
attending the high school building
asking for the removal OF Principal
Coleman was sent to the board OF
education recently, and they refused
10 "cOnsider" the wall Of protest. In
addition to this. three-fOurths OF the
high school faculty and at least three
fOurths of the students are now 0p-
posed to Prof Coleman and desire his
removal.
Parents and other citizens who have
been closely watching the muddle al
the high school are earnestly hoping
that Principal Coleman and the other
members Of the faculty who have not
been able to agree in the conduct OF
high school work will be dismissed by
the board of education.
Discord the Coming Year.
1t is realized by all unbiased citi-
zens that affairs in the school have
reached an unfortunate stage, and
that unless those taking part in the
suuabbIe are removed the ill-feeling
continue during the coming schOOl
year.
Prof. Carmichael, who crossed
swords with Principal Coleman, has
been absolutely denied a hearing by
the three out of five members VINO

though the hearing was requested by
Superintendent Saylor Principal
Coleman. on the other hand has been
given a full hearing by the board.
Fuel to the flames of discord has
been added by the permanent suspen

by Principal Coleman as a result OF
the stand taken By young Detfenbaugh
in the trouble Deffenbaugh was or
dered by Prot. Coleman not TO come

way to permanently suspend a pups

err oss rendered another decision rel
alive to the construction OF certain
nartc of the revenue law of the state.
1t was in reply to a query from the
state auditor as to the meaning OF
property in litigation as referred TO
in the revenue law.
The question arose in King county,
where the assessor claimed that the
clerk wanted to return under the head
of property in litigation' only the
money paid to him as advanced tees
in litigation. The assessor insisted
that all moneys belonging TO others
in the clerks custody, even though
in satisfaction of judgments no longer

The attorney general holds that the
law must be construed as requiring
the custodian to list only such prop
ty or money as may be in his posses
