pie spraying, aside from this incon-

showers of blessings from heaven.

BINGEN.

Although the Enterprise of our
neighboring town thinks there is no
one at Bingen able to write a cGrIe-
spondence, aud our letter was make
up by the Glacier; although we do not
know whether we have to take the
Enterprises remarks as al honor. or
whether it was intended as a slur on
the Glacier, we will try again. Al
though we have no electric railways
and S75, 600 water plants, like dazzling
fatamorgana, in view; although we are
not so situated that all traffic going
and coming to the railroad station
has "to pass through our town." like
our neighboring town, White Salmon,
we will have one sure thing, we will
have the railroad station. We are
not booming, but there are now under
construction four dwelling houses and
two more will be built as soon as lum-
Der can be had. Merchant Hadley is
also enlarging his store. But it is
not surprising to see so many dwell
ings going up at Bingen. Is 1t not
the most beautiful place on the Co.
lumbia for home?
The men grading on the railroad
are steadily working ahead, and ac-
cording 70 the view of the contractors
the grade for miles both ways from
Bingen, will be finished by October /.
The saw mill, four miles back of
Bingen, has big contract for ties and
teams ars hauling them down to Bin.
gen, where they are piled up along
side the finished grade at the station
grounds. The side track at Bingen
station will be 1900 feet long.
The right of way through the Mrs.
Warner place has not been settled,
probably will be settled in court at
Goldendale this week. Contractor
johnson is very anxious to have the
matter settled at once, besides wish
ing to go ahead with his contract
work. He and his men will have all
the ripe Strawberries on the right Of
way they may care for.

After well rendered program few
timely rem .rks by +. M. Gill, county

CROWD OUT
PORTUGUESE FARES

About fifteen Portuguese applied at
the Office OF w. @. Irwin & Co.. agents
for the Oceanic steamship Company,
this morning for passage to San Fran
cisco. A number had to be refused ac-
commodations in the steerage on ac-
count of the large number of japanese
going to the Coast Wednesday in the
Alameda.
Asked as to the reason of their de-
parture, the Portuguese stated that
they were from onomea plantation and
that they could not get along on 1922
per month. The s22 is probably mis-
take. for all Portuguese are paid 81 per
day by the plantations now.
One Portuguese, Joe Gonsalves, stat
ed that they had made application for
Government land and had been turned
down. We were told the land was
wanted for the Russians" he said
that is what we saw printed in one
of the Portuguese papers"
Portuguese emigration is not large
averaging about dozen persons q
month.

Law
IS Killed
By Gear

Another interesting battle between
the emigrant agents. who are getting
laborers together for the Olympia. and
those interested in keeping the laborers
here, took place this morning In the
Police Court IL ended In victory for
Haga. a japanese who was arrested for
violating the hotel license law, Judge
Whitney supporting the contention
raised by the defendants counsel,
Judge Gear, declaring the statute und-
er which Haga was arrested, uncqn-
stitutional.
Haga holds license as an emf.
grant agent and is therefore doing
business as such in safety. He does.
however. also run a hotel. so he was
arrested on a charge of violating mis-
license by keeping more than fifteen
people In IT,
The law states that no hotel license
shall be issued before the applicant
has secured from the Board of Health
certificate showing that an agent OF
the Board has examined the place and
stating the number OF persons who
by law can be lodged therein" A vio-
lation of the conditions OF the license
is punishable by its cancellation and a
| fine.
Judge Gear held that the law was
unconstitutional as there was no way
of compelling the Board OF Health To
issue certificate, and as there was no
law regulating the number Of persons
to be lodged, by which the agent re-
ferred to In the statute could act, 80
his decisions were absolutely arbitrary
Gear quoted several decisions. includ-
ing that rendered by the Circuit Cour,
in the Lucweiko case. which, incident
ally, was rendered by himself.
Judge Whitney stated that while he
had heretofore declined to pass on
questions OF constitutionality, which
were brought before him, still In this
case the contention raised by Gear was
so plain that he must sustain his de-
murrer and discharge the defendant.
