dence here Monday morning about nine
o'clock and her death marks the passing

JUDGE OF PROBATE
Present Incumbent should be Re-
tained I'm That Office.

Present Incumbent should be Re-
tained In That Office.
Montgomery Webster, probate Judge foI
Ionia county, became register Of probate
in 1901, and served in that capacity un
til l9o4, when he was appointed by the
governor as Judge of probate to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of his father
VIM. o. Webster. The latter had estab-
lished for himself the reputation of being
one of the best probate judges in Mich-
gan, and was generally recognized as
man Of unquestioned integrity and uncom-
mon ability,
The son has proven worthy successor
to his honored father. The experience
gained as register familiarized him with
probate practice and procedure, which
added to his knowledge of the law previ-
ousy acquired by him in the law derart-
ment Of our university and in the law Of
flee of his father, enabled him to take hold
of the duties of his office and perform
them in creditable and praiseworthy
manner. But not only did his legal edu-
cation rest on a strong foundation, but as
a scholar and student in other fields the
knowledge acquired by him was not in
considerable. He had graduated from
the high school at lonia in 1895, ard
later from the literary department of the
university, after which he had taught
mathematics and history in the Ionia
city schools. 1t is not surprising, there
fore, that he proved equal to the task as
sumed by him when he accepted the posi-
tim Of probate Judge, and that he fills
that position today in manner so salts
factory to his constituents that he had nc
opposition in his party for the nomination
to fill the remainder of the term for which
VIM. o. Webster was elected in 9o4 II
is only fair under the circumstances that
he should receive an unqualified endorse
ment of the citizens Of lonia county for the
balance of the unexpired term.
The office is one Of the most important
in the Ionia county list and its business
should be placed in capable and expert
enced hands.

BOB ATKINSON
OWED TOO FAR
RECEIVED NASTY SCALP WOUND
WHILE SURFING AT THE BEACH
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON.

Robert w. Atkinson, cashier of b. F.
Dillingham; Co., met with a painful ac-
cident while surfing at Waikiki yes
terday afternoon. He was in the bow
of a canoe carrying a party of friends
and as the craft was rushing shoreward
on a big wave he dived overheard The
impetus of the boat carried him deeper
tnan he had calculated and when he
came to the surface he was bleeding
profusely from a long cash which pene-
trated to the skull.
AS soon as possible he was taken
aboard and was hurried to the Moana
hotel where, in the temporary absence
Of Dr. Humphris, first aid was given
by c. w. c. Deering. On the arrival of
the doctor the wound was stitched up
but Atkinson lost considerable blood.
He was padded back to the residence
of his brother-in-law Sheriff Brown
and afterwards went home. Aside from
the fact that a cut from live coral gen.
orally takes long time in healing, there
is no danger from the wound

nOhiki rights. Both cases were decid-
ed adversely by local Supreme Court,
A writ of error was taken to the Su-
preme Court by Damon and the case
was decided in his favor the local Su-
preme court being reversed.
Some time last year a similar writ
was taken in the other case, S. NJ. Bal
lou going to Washington to argue the
case. The Supreme Court has just sus-
tanned the contention made by Ballou
& Marx, the local attorneys, and re-
versed the Territorial Supreme Court in
the second test case.
The decision today establishes the
law clearly in the issue. The Organic
Act required that those claiming fish
ing rights would first have to bring
suits in the local courts within two
years, to determine their claims and
falling to file such suits with that per-
iod, that their rights would lapse.
| The decision by the highest court in
the land sustains the legality of the
/ claims of appertenant rights. People
who have brought suits within the two
periods prescribed by the Organic Act
will now have to prove thier claims
Most of the suits have been hung up
awaiting a decision of the present case
as it was a test of most of them.
After the rights shall have been set
tied the Territory under the eminent
domain law, will condemn all of the
rights and purchase them. But until
such time, the landlords will enjoy the
rights and privileges under the old
Hawaiian law. The last legislature
passed law making it a criminal Of
fence to violate fishery rights.
