EnQineer Thomson Will Meet With
Council Tomorrow Afternoon
CALM FEARS OF CERTAIN COuNCILMEN
DECISION TO BE REACHED ON
HOW PIPE LINE is TO BE
EXCAVATED.

To calm the fears of certain mem
bers of the council Mayor Hunt stated
this morning that Engineer Thomson
will arrive in Walla Walla tomorrow
morning and will meet with the council
in the afternoon to definitely decide
whether the excavation of the pipe line
for Walla Walla's new gravity water
system shall be done by days labor
under the supervision of Water Super
intendent Knight or by contract as two
or three members of the council are
agitating.
Mayor Hunt stated It was necessary
to have the question settled as soon as
possible in order that there may be no
delay in starting work on the system at
the earliest possible moment.
1T is merely a question of installing
the new system as quickly as possible,

have been endeavoring to secure
enough signers to call a caucus of their
party to determine definitely upon
what action the party will take toward
tariff revision These attempts have
resulted in failure.
Members generally have refused to
sign the call being circulated by the
Massachusetts republicans for fear of
mourning the displeasure of Speaker
Cannon In almost every instance the
Massachusetts members were told that
later in the session after their bills are
through the house, members who re-
fuse now will sign a caucus call.
The Massachusetts, members have
decided not to attempt TO force the
matter They believe they have made
their position in favor of tariff revis-
ion clear to their constituents who
have been demanding a change and
that if the majority of the republican
party is opposed to it, it is up to the
party.

Municipal Ownership Proposition in

fraud in the returns upon the munich
pal ownership proposition voted on
last Tuesday have been received by
Corporation Counsel Lewis, and the
county court and the election COM
missioners will be asked to investigate
the matter 1t is asserted that in
fOrty-one precincts the returns upon al
of the three propositions relative to
municipal ownership show exactly the
same vote, and this is said to be ar
impOssibility.
1t is claimed by the advocates OF
municipal ownership that a recount
will show a gain of 5000 votes for the
proposition, and these, together witt
the same loss for the negative votes
and an error of 1000 votes already
found in the footing of the vote in the
Tenth ward, will give the municipal

CIRCUIT COURT PASSES ON ONE POINT
CORPORATIONS CANNOT SECURE
TITLE FROM INDIVIDUALS
EMPLOYED BY THEM.

Tn overruling q demurrer filed by the
defendants in the case of the United
States VS.. the Sterling Coal company
ct AL in a suit to cancel patent held
by Helen Wilson. on the ground
that the patent had been acquired in
accordance with a conspiracy between
the coal company and the patentee,
the United States circuit court at Ia
coma has made decision of interest
to parties who may contemplate the
securing of patents at the instigation
or request of similar corporations.
According to the complaint in the
case the Sterling Coal company had
entered into an agreement with Helen
Wilson and other defendants to fur
nish the funds necessary for them to
acquire title to certain coal lands
which had been discovered by the de-
PENDANTS. The government also fur

A number of separate tracts had
been entered at the office at Vancou-
yer in the names of individuals in the
agreements and patents had already
been issued to Virgil and Helen Wilson
when the government became aware
of the alleged facts and sued to cancel
the patents upon the charge of fraud
ulent application.
The demurrer filed by the defendants
alleged that the patents could not be
cancelled for the reason that they still
stood in the names of the original pat
entees and that the conspiracy, if ex
istent, had not been contaminated. The
court, however. Overruled the demurrer

Mil Employees Expected to Demand
More Pay
MANUFACTURERS ARE MUCH ALARMED
AMERICAN FEDERATION OF LA.
Dor PREPARING FOR sTRUG-
GLE IN STATE.

A fight with single mill employees
that will eventually spread throughout
the state is expected by single manu-
facturers The trouble at Ballard has
been followed by small strikes in a
dozen single mill centers, and even
tually the effort of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor to control the shingle
situation is expected to affect all the
manufacturers, is the report that
comes from Seattle.
Ballard, the largest shingle manu-
featuring town in the state, is bearing
the brunt of the first fight. Shingle
manufacturers had anticipated that
some Of the smaller towns, farther re-
moved from the labor market, would
be attacked first But if the struggle
at Ballard is won, it will strengthen
the mill employees materially.
Asiatc Labor Affected.
c. o. Young, an organizer for the
American Federation of Labor, is or
ganizing the shingle employees through
out the state. Thus far neither Mr.
Young nor those working with him
have presented any demands to the
manufacturers, and YOung's claim tC
the mill men is that he is merely
bringing the mill employees into the
big parent organization.
Single manufacturers believe the
work of the American Federation is in
anticipation of a struggle over the
Asiatic labor question. They expect
peremptory demands to follow the ad-
justment of the big strikes in the
east that are now pending. Few o.
the mills in this state are employing
foreign labor now, but mill men un-
derstand that there will be an influx
of Japanese labor for new railroad
work. From two to five years later

One of the strikes of mill men was
caused by the employment of Japanese
labor The Atlas Lumber company was

for more wages. Two strikes have
