was the testimony of Mr.. Cowden
showing that the firm Of Griffiths
and Griffiths, acting as his counsel,
advised him that he could lawfully
do the thing for which he was after
wards prosecuted by the same firm.
In fairness to Grifiths and GEifiths
it must be said that q member of
tbs firm, Mr.. Waiter Grifiths, was
put upon the stand in rebuttal.
However, there was produced no
evidence of criminality and the
prosecution rested solely on tech
nicaf violation of law. This case,
as also the custer case still pending,
seems to partake of the spirit of re-
taliation. Parties, represented by
GTifiths and Grifiths, undertook
to compel the Board of Directors to
call an election last December. The
Board was advised by its attorneys,
Messrs: Rice and Thompson, that
there was no provision of law for
calling an election, and, at the same
time, injunction proceedings were
threatened if the Board undertook
to do so. The matter went into the
District court for settlement, and
there it was decided that the law
did not provide for holding an elec-
tion III the Pioneer Irrigation Dis
trict in the year 1904 .-..
1t is understood that all the MEM
bers of the Board have indicated
determination to resign as soon as
pending litigation terminates. We
believe it will be great misfortune
if such thing shall take place. i
The people of the District will do
we'll to seriously consider what it
may mean to place four new men
in charge of an enterprise of such |
under such conditions. |
1t the present Board is determined |
10 resign, the members should be
urged to do so one at time, and at
intervals of month or so, in order
that the change shall be sufficiently
gradual to have upon the Board at
all times members of some exper.

Western HemIock.

The introduction Of western hemlock
to the market as a building material
has met with many obstacles. The
hemlock Of the east is far inferior to
the western species as a building wood,
and the prejudice existing against the
eastern species is unjustly extended to
that OF the west. The latter is a hard,
straight and even grained wood, near
" white in color. 1t does not split
readily and is light and tough. These
characteristics peculiarly at it for man
ufacture into boxes. 1t is also a su
periOr wood for all inside finishing, as
il takes a high polish and has excel
lent wearing qualities 1t can be rap
idly kiln dried at high temperature
without injury Mechanical tests have
shown 1t to possess about 20 per cent
Of the strength of red fir and to be
suited for all except the heaviest struc-
tural demands. Large quantities Of
this timber are now sold under other
names than its own. There is no just
cause for the prejudice which necessi-
tates this deception, and western hem
lock should be handled under its right
name.-Departmen Of Agriculture Bull

NAMES OF EXPRESS TRAINS.
rerse Terms That Impress Them
selves Upon the Public.

selves Upon the Public.
Some time ago a railroad company Of
fered a substantial prize for the most
attractive title for its fastest train, and
though none Of those submitted was ac-
cepted the Ingenuity Of the COMPETE
tors was not undeserving of praise.
Among those sent in were such titles as
the Republican limited, the Narrow
Path express, the Liberty express, the
Yankee High Filler and many others
more or less good, says the Detroit
Hews-Tribune. Although the novel COM
petition practically failed In its purpose,
It called attention to the picturesque
and ingenious names which designate
many OF the important high fiiers
which run daily over American rails.
There is no better known express in the
world than the Twentieth Century lin
tied, which runs with but a single stop
between New York and Chicago in
twenty hours. The title in this instance
Is a particularly happy one, for 1t not
only symbolizes the century in which
we live, but also the actual time occu-
pied in the run.
Another interesting and appropriate
name belongs to an express which runs
daily from Philadelphia to New York
and which is known as the Brides lin
tied. This high fier gained its name
from the fact that ever since its inau-
guration last year it has not failed to
carry at least one happy couple on a
honeymoon trip daily. The Brides lin
tied is made up of three or four Pull
man coaches, each bearing some title
suggestive Of its happy freight, such as
Cupid, Hymen, etc, and the train is
now extremely popular with newly
married couples.
The Green Mountain Filler is the IA
nous Montreal express for New York
and received its name from the beauti-
ful green hills through which it runs
on its daily journeys. An equally pic
turesque title is that Of the Sunset
Limited, a Southern Pacific express
which dashes daily toward that Ell Do
RADIO of horticulturists-Ca California.
Minneapolis and ST. Paul are known
as the Twin Cities, and so it is only nat
ural that the train which runs from
there TO st. Louis should be called the
Twin City Limited. The exposition al
st. Louis. by the way, has been the
means Of giving titles to many new
trains, among these being the Exposi
ton Limited. over the Grand Central.

A Motor sleigh.

A striking example Of the rapid prog
ress Of motor transportation exhibited
at the recent automobile show in Mad
ison Square Garden, New York city,
was that Of the motor sleigh. This is
the invention OF a prominent Boston
lawyer who has a bent for mechanics.
Through the body Of the sleigh and
reaching the ground are the pushing
levers, and at the lower end OF each Of
these are shoes with broad serrated
faces. All these are connected with
levers, crank shafts, connecting rods
and other things known to the cunning
makers OF automobiles. The shoes are
arranged to permit Of coasting.

A London Fad

Silk bed clothes are the latest fad
in high society in London.
Sheets and pillow cases to be in the
height OF fashion are made OF the
purest silk and the pillow slips are
gorgeously embroidered.
'Of course, only very rich people can
afford to indulge in the luxury of silk
sheets, which cost anything from Is
to so guineas a pair, according to the
amount of embroidery on tbem," ex-
planned the head of a well-lSnown west

that at last a very acceptable container
has been found in what he designates
a single service paper milk bottle.
It is made Of heavy spruce wood fiber

tant feature Of the bottle is its satura-
ton with parafiin by being dipped in
