LETTER FROM JURY.
Compliments Paid to Court Officers
by January Panel.

The members of the jury panel
which completed its labors Tuesday
presented the following paper to
Judge Rigg at the close of the term
and after they had been released
from duty. The compliment paid to
Judge Rigg and to Prosecuting At
torney Krutz is deserving Of special
attention.
''Fellow Citizens of Yakima Coun-
ty. Washington: In times like
these, when corruption in certain
high places has become so manifest,
so flagrant and so appallingly gil
gantic; when we have been so alb
sorbed in contemplating these mon
ster vices that it seems we are on
the brink of impending ruin of our
race, and our hearts almost sink
within us; it is then all the more re-
freshing and gratifying to turn the
picture over and see a better side.
Our busy, busting throng of peo-
pie, absorbed each in his own per-
sonal affairs until awakened by re-
ports of some high-handed villainy,
do then in a righteous indignation
vigorously protest and denounce the
evil doors. But so averse are we to
base. false fiattery that we, alas, too
often, fail to utter word of kindly
appreciation of the faithful services
of the officers of our civil govern
ment (our public servants).
These servants are, like our
selves, very human and appreciate
an occasional kindly word of ap-
prevail. 1t does them good to hear
it and does us more good to say it.
Believing, as we do, that kindly
word of appreciation is at this time
eminently just and fair, and that the
public confidence and general good
may be served thereby, therefore we.
the undersigned jurors. take
pleasure in assuring the public OF
our confidence, high esteem, respect
and appreciation of the mastery
skill and ability and integrity OF his
honor, Judge Rigg of the superior
court of Yakima county, Washing
ton.
High commentator is also due
to Prosecuting Attorney Ira NJ.
Krutz and other lawyers and officers
of the court
And now as we say adieu to this
term of court and its associations.
we wish to express our hearty
thanks to all for the kindly treat
ment we have enjoyed from their
hands.
Every respectfully yours"

TREATED
TO SENSATION
PATTERSON SCORES COLLEAGUES
Accuses Democrats of Action Con-
trary to Spirit of Constitution
of the United States.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The SEN
ate was treated to sensation today
by Tom Patterson, democrat, of
Colorado, who followed up his re-
tirement of last Saturday from the
democratic caucus by introducing in
the senate resolution in effect de-
claring the action of the caucus con-
trary to the spirit of the Constitu
ton of the United States. The
senator's action was apparently un-
expected and all the senators list
ened attentively as the reading of
the rather long preamble progressed,
evidently not a little concerned as to
what would come next. Senator
Patterson said he would speak on
the resolution tomorrow or the first
available day afterward. 1t is ex-
pected that the democrats generally
will resist the adoption of the resolu-
ton and that the republicans will
sustain Pattersons contention.
The senator succeeded during the
day in securing the fixing Of a date
for the vote on the shipping bin

Several bills passed today and TEL

the shipping bill.

people, as the Oregonian aptly OBJ
serves, do not engage in contests of
that kind with their rivals. What
he means is that we are not selling
goods enough to the Japanese to pay
for what they sell us. The conse-
quence is that the balance against us
must be settled in cash. This may
or may not be bad symptom, ac-
cording TO circumstances. Mr.. Hill
seems to interpret it as a sign that
the nation is buying more than it
produces and is therefore living
riotously on the savings of former
years-Puyallup Commerce.
