"Gantlemen:I have your letter
of December second. in regard to
the motion for a new trial in the
Hendricks case.
81 am in the midst of jury bust
ness here. and have not had an op-
portunity to examine the motion
carefully. l may say, however, that
l would not be willing to decide this
motion except upon full argument
by counsel for both sides. =
81 note your suggestion that |
return to Roswell for the purpose of
hearing this motion. I am unable,
however, to return TO Roswell until
the date fixed for the adjourned ses-
sion, which is February 9Th. A hea-
Wy criminal docket is set here for
the next two weeks. and the jury
will be on my hands until December
goth. During the succeeding week l
have a large number of cases set for
trial on waiver of jury. which will
occupy my time up to Christmas day.
The week following there are one
or two chamber matters which have
been noticed for hearing. and if
these do not come up I must devote
the week to the consideration of
opinions to be handed down at the
session of the Supreme Court begin
ming January 9Th. I have a number
Of these already in my hands, sent
me by the other judges. for consid-
Grafton. From January 9Th on. to the
adjourned term at Roswell. l will

the matter. therefore. is hat it will
have to remain in statu quo until
February 9th. when l will be able
to take up the motion at Roswell.
l appreciate all the consideration
urged in the matter. and regret that
conditions in this end of the dis
trict are such that l cannot meet

PROSSER is ASSURED
OF SUGAR FACTORY

Frosser.-Ihe erection of a beet
sugar factory is practically assured
TOT THIS city. A deal has been made
with some prominent owners of the
sugar works in Utah and Oregon for
the building of a mammoth nlant
Inc promoters will also bring a COLONY
OF practical irrigators and beet grow
ers from the vicinity of Lehi, Utah.
IL Is estimated that at least 10 900
acres will be devoted to beet culture
to supply the demand for the factory.
A large area of the Yakima Indian
reservation has been leased for plant
ing the new crop. Sugar beets have
been grown in this vicinity for several
years. Specimens sent 10 various fac
tories and experimental stations for
analysis show larger sugar content
tnan that obtained even in the best
beet growing districts of the United
States. A large area of country COW
cred by the great Sunnyside canal is
adapted to beet growing. Many eX-
perlmental patches of beets have been
grown in different sections. and all
have shown wonderful results in the
amount of saccharine in the tubers
Where some sections show from IA
to l6 per cent sugar the beets grown
here test from IS to % per cent
The lands are to be sold in small
tracts to the prospective beet farm
ers and special rates given in water
rental, Several hundred of the best
families Of Utah will sell their homes
in that state and buy new lands near
this city. Those interested in the in
dustry state that full 1000 new citi-
zens will be added to the population
of Prosser and vicinity by the build
ing of the sugar factory. The classes
of people to be located on the lands
are said to be Industrious, sober and
honest labOrers Their trade will
come to this city and make it one Of
the most important commercial points
in Eastern Washington.

Is SATISFIED WITH RESULT
Is ThankIess Office at the Best-Be-
iieved That it Will End Con-
test Talk.

Councilman J. T. Smith from the
Second ward will be allowed to retain
mis- seat IN the council without con-
test. J. C. Scott, who was defeated
by Mr. Smith by only four votes, this
morning authorized the statement that
there would be no contest as far as he
was concerned. The office at the best
is only a thankless one, he says, re
quiring much time, and as long as the
returns showed Mr.. Smith elected by
four votes, Mr. Scott stated that he
was satisfied
The rumor that Mr.. Scott would file
contest proceedings started through
his asking member of the council
if in canvassinIg the returns the votes
would be recOunted. In canvasslng
the returns the totals are merely verl-
fed and the votes are not recOunJed
1t might happen that an error made
in adding totals would change the en-
tire vote and seat Mr.. Scott yet, as
there would have to be a difference
Of only three votes in his favor

the Office Of constable to l.. c. Good

that Levi Malone had been elected by
majority of six votes. When the
