ment submitted the indictment and
then said the government would rest

Judge HeacOck decided that the gov
ernment could rest on the Indictment
without going to the expense of oral
testimony. This ruling will stand de-
spite the protest of counsel for the
defense who claim that injustice is be-
ing done their clients inasmuch as
they are called to prove the negative
act which does away with the pre-
sumption of innocence and shifts the
burden of proof from the government
to the defenda ats.

Except on One Point Superior Court
Is Sustained.

OLYMPIA, March 25.-The litigation
over the construction of the Jackson
school building in Everett, in which al
parties interested appealed to the SUI
oreme court has been decided by the
ourt. The decree of the lower court
5 affirmed except where it allowed \
X. CriSWell an attorney fee, to be palC
~ the school district. The board OF
directors of the Everett schools orlgl-
nally accepted Il bid of Thomas Grant
to build what was to be known as the
jefferson annex" school building. the
contract price of which was $4,000.
Before the building was under way
the board decided to purchase addl-
tional ground and locate the school III
another place under the name of the
Jackson school. The plans were modi-
fed considerably. and the building was
constructed, under the contract with
Grant, for the stipulated price OF
s2667O. A number of extras were al
lowed so that warrants to the amount
of 1000 had been issued when Cris-
we'll. resident and taxpayer or the
district. brought suit to restrain the
issuance of any more warrants or the
payment of any already issued, on the
ground that the contract with Grant
had been illegally made through not
advertising for bids. Fraud and col
lusiOn were also alleged.
The superior court found that the
equitable value of the building was
2O,535.56 and restrained payment OF
any warrants in excess of that amount
or the issuance of any more. ne
court also allowed Criswell an attorney
fee and $500 to be paid by the school
district. All of the parties appealed
from the decision. With the exception
of the attorney fee, which the plalntlh
was allowed. the supreme court sus-
tains the lower court.
The supreme court has affirmed the
superior court of Pierce county in the
case of Royal A. Grove, respondent

brought to recover the value OF two
