HUTCHINSON NAILS
SPOKESMAN REVIEW LIE

81 am not the first citizen of Spo-
kane who has been lied about by the
Spokesman-Review for opposing
their private gain at the public's ex-
pense, nor do l expect to be the
last.
when they spring their scheme to
sell the up-river water works for
100000 which are now paying the
city interest on over $2,000,000, they
will find men here who are not cow
ards or scycophants, and who will
oppose them in the interest of the
people.
And when they repeat their long
and labored editorials on the advan-
tages of water meters which will
cost the people of this city nearly
100000 to install, and interest on
100000 more to read and keep in re-
pair. they will find men here who
have the hardihood to brave the
anathema's of the newspaper trust
and insist that the people be given
water--not water meters. / did not
court this fight-neither do l "pathe-
tically beg" to call it. off"
"R. A. Hutchinson"

Editor Press:-When the Review

tees not to give the report of the
committee to the newspapers, they
state an untruth.
81 did request that the report of
the committee be not adopted until
after the trial of the case on the
18th, and l told the trustees that
] thought the adoption of the report
of the committee without hearing my
side of the case would cause the
chamber of commerce to be criticised
and justly so-especially as the
case is to be tried out in full on the
18th.
but the powers that be had evil
IDENTIFY ordered it and the orders had
to be obeyed.
"When the motion was made that
the report of the committee be given
to the newspapers Secretary Munroe
said he would like to hear from Mr..
Hutchinson. 1 replied that it was
not treating me fairly, but as the re-
port had already been given to the
county commissioners to give it to
the newspapers.

Cochran took him as her third lord
and master on the same day that
she received her legal freedom from
her second one.
Her third venture was an expensive
one in financial way, for, according
to Mrs. Elliott, young George Ed
mund Coolidge sank $4,000 of her
fortune in a southern mine within a
week of her nuptial day. This led
to u decided cooling of her affection
for him, and, as in her previous mari
tai affairs, separations, reconcilia-
tons and further separations took
place in quick succession. These
finally terminated in a separation

HUNTINGTON, Pa, Jan. 12.-Mrs.
Emma Desha elliott, three weeks
ago almost utterly unknown outside
this, her home city, is today talked
of from ore end of the country to the
other. She is the woman in the case
of Rev. Try ing n. w. Irvine against
Bishop Ethelbert Talbot, the sensa-
ton which has agitated not only the
Episcopal church-clersy and laymen
but everyone else who has had ac-
cess to a daily newspaper during the
last 20 days.
Mrs Elliott has had four husbands.
Death freed her from none. The four
husbands necessarily means that she
was woman of fascinations. Al
though today she is nearly 60, Mrs.
Elliott is IA handsome woman, distin-
guished in manner and figure, and
showing traces of that rare beauty
for which she was famous as girl
In the south some 40 years ago.
Mrs Elliott comes of the bluest
of blue blood of Alabama, her father
being General Robert Desha. She was
the toast of Mobile, as she was of
Newport. where she reigned for sew
eral seasons as an acknowledged
belle
1t is claimed that though she had
suitors by the score, Mrs. Elliott did
not select her first husband from
among them. He was James Ander-
son, and he was chosen for her by
her relatives. AS the match
Did Not Prove Happy One,
these same interested kin helped undo
what was looked upon as "A marital
error, and separation followed.
Upon the death of her father, n
rich man, and of a wealthy uncle,
whose heir she was, the young Mrs.
Anderson removed to Philadelphia.
Here her popularity was equal to
that which she had enjoyed in her
native city, and her home was ever

unsatisfactory as the first one,
though son was the result of It,.
After several quarrels and as many
reconCiliations, the couple decided to
part forever.
While her suit for divorce was
