Supreme Court Holds Enactment
Is Not Necessary.
A SEATTLE MAN WINS HIS CASE
PLUMBER CONVICTED OF ENGAG
ING IN BUSINESS WITHOUT
A LICENSE.

The supreme court of Washington, l..
a unanimous opinion, has upset the
late plumbing in cities having a popu-
lation of 10000 or more inhabitants,
providing for beard of plumbing in
spectOrs.
The case at bar was entitled the
state of Washington ex rel. A. j.
Richey, petitioner, VS.. L. G. Smith, as
sheriff of King county, respondent.
The relator had been convicted and
fined for engaging in the plumbing
business in Seattle without first OBJ
tanning license from the board, con-
trary to section II Of the act of March
4, 1905.
The opinion is written by Justice
Rudkin, who INDUCES in some fine
sarcasm at the expense of the legis-
lature.
Must Draw the Line.
1--WE cannot close our eyes to the
fact that legislation on this line is on
the increase" says the opinion. Like
begets like. and every legislative ses-
sion brings forth a new act of interest
to some trade or corporation. The
doctor, the lawyer, the druggist, the
dentist, the barber, the horeshoer and
the plumber have been cared for and
the end is not yet, for the nurse and
the undertaken are knocking at the
door. 1t will not do to say that any
occupation which remotely affects the
public health is subject to legislation
of this kind. Our surroundings bring
up many reflections. Our health may
be affected by our clothes, our travel
ing. our food, etc. But for this reason
must we license the architect, the
tailor. the carpenter, the shoemaker
If so, soon all honest toll must pur-
chase license from some board or
commission. Health is important, but
liberty does not occupy a secondary
place in our fundamental law. Some
boards have a member of the board OF
health as part of the examining board,
but this law lacks even this saving
grace. Why should a court blindly
declare the public health involved,
when we know that control of the
plumbing business by a board is the
sole end in view? The act has no
relation to the public health as sanl-
tary Or police measure, and the judg-
ment is reversed and the prisoner or
dered discharged"

Gunner Gunder|Os Makes Serious
Charge Against Seamen.
TAKEN BY WHALER CREW TO ALASKA
PROTESTED TO CAPTAIN OF YES.

AVAIL.
TAKEN BY WHALER CREW TO ALASKA

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 12.-
From far-off Alaska comes a remark
able letter to the bureau of navigation
of the navy department. 1t was writ
ten by Gunner Thomas Gunderlos, wao
makes serious charges against the cap,
tain of the Whaler Jeanette. 1t seems
that while Gunderloss was enjoying a
little mental obscurity in San Fran
cisco. the crew of the jeanette shang-
haied him and carried him to Alaskan
waters.
When he recovered his senses, he
Indignantly told the captain of the
whaler that he was a gunner on the
United States battleship Ohio, to which
the captain is said to have replied:
VERY good; we are in need of just
such a man.
The bureau of navigation has looked
into the matter and believes the state
ments made by Gunderloss are true,
and the revenue cutter service has
been asked to look out for the jeanette.
The man has had a most excellent
record during his long service in the
navy, and his mysterious disappearance
from San Francisco could not be &C
counted for by his officers and mates.

PERRY LYONS BADLY INJURED
Suffers Badly Broken Leg While Rum
ming Ferryboat Across the
Snake Saturday.

Perry Lyons, owner of Lyons ferry
on Snake river, was brought to- ST
Mary's hospital Saturday evening suf
fering from a badly fractured leg, the
result of a peculiar accident that oc
taking the ferry across the river. As
the boat swung out into the stream the
swift current turned the craft sharply
causing the wheel by which the boat
is guided to reyolve rapidly.
The spinning spokes caught Mr.
Lyons a terrific blow on the right leg
just below the knee, crushing the bone
like an eggshell and severing an artery
Fortunately splinter of bone clogged
the lacerated artery and stopped the
hemorrhage somewhat.
Mr.. Lyons was brought to Walla
Walla On a late train that night and
his injuries were attended to by Dr.
E. E. Shaw. Nearly 25 pieces Of
splintered bone were removed from the
wound. Mr.. Lyons was resting easy
today and his attending physician has
hopes that the injured leg will heal
and be as good as ever. Mrs. Lyons

hospital.

Since the Great Northern and the

of a Great Northern attorney as Mr..

Acknowledgement Atkinson has rem

Our supreme court" he says, "has
held that money on deposit subject t.

opinion is that it is not a credit.
Where a party sells personal prop
erty after the first day of March, j,
is my opinion that under the law as ii
exists and under the best policy, the
treasurer should use his best Judgment
in collecting the tax upon said proper
ty. The assessment is in rem rather
than persona, but the tax is a lien
against real properyt of the person
against whom assessed, and collection
could be made on other personal prop
erty found. There might be occasions
in which it would be entirely imprac-
ticable for him to try to collect taxes
against certain specific personal prop
erty so sold For instance, if horses

would be difficult for him to follow

that as a general proposition, ne
should attempt to exhaust his remedy
rather upon the person to whom as
sessed, than to lay down the specific
rule that he should try to exhaust his
remedy in collecting the tax upon the
property first"

GEORGE R. CARTER

Some weeks ago the Governor of Ha-
wall, being very i'll, was ordered by his
physicians to this Coast. He arrived
here in time to 60 through the disaster
of a few weeks ago. We are glad to
see by his letter that his health has not
suffered in consequence, but that he has
apparently much improved. For man
who has been desperately i'll, and who
still can take the trouble to write a
letter renewing and extending his sub
scription to a newspaper for which he
has already paid, is certainly taking al
truistic and optimistic views of life.
We congratulate Governor Carter on
his improved health and thank him for
his encouraging letter and the extern
sion of his subscription, which, how
ever, we shall take the liberty of dat
ing from the expiration of his present
one-not, be it understood, because we
are looking a gift horse in the mouth,
but simply to keep our accounts
