peacefully within The pews of his
find spread quickly, and 1t last account
the lucky fisherman was offered $3.50
for his treasure. He is confident.
however, that it Is worth much more,
and has refused TO part with it.
Mr.. Titles lucky find occasioned
considerable excitement as compara-
lively few of the gems have hitherto

highly probable that henceforth no end

daily along the ferry dock. waiting for
fish bites, and incidentally few
clans.

Was Brilliant Lawyer.

He was a sound and resourceful
lawyer, a fine scholar and an able
Judge. He was an enthusiastic
Mason. Probably no man in the west
has devoted the time or energy to the
work of the order that he has, or
has accomplished more for it. He has
taken nearly all Of the different de-
grees of that order and was a prime
mover in establishing the Walla Wal
la Masonic library, one of the best
west of the Mississippi river.
He has held some of the highest
offices within the gift of the fraterni-
ty and has added much to its litera-
ture from his own pen.
The Walla Walla bar association
held a Snort meeting at the office OF
Judge Brents this morning at which
a committee consisting of Judge
Brents, John L. Sharpstein and c. c.
Gose was appointed to draw up res
olutions of sympathy to the relatives

FAIR STOCKHOLDERS To MEET To

The annual stockholders meeting Of

Water will mail out notices to stock
holders, calling their attention to the

valuation of $12,746.1O2. with a 17k
mill levy, which will net the county a
revenue of s213,776.O4, or $9,2s0.75 less
than was collected for 1905. The dem
ocrats assert the statement gotten
out by the republicans is inaccurate
because the special school levies, fixed
by the directors of each district, had
been made to appear as if decided
upon by the democratic commission
ers. The democratic figures show the
general state and county taxes for
next year will be nearly $4,000 less
under the new valuations than under
the old. The figures gotten out by
the republicans were given wide cir
culation among voters and the demo-
Gratis, to head off an erroneous state
ment, prepared their figures and will
use them industriously at the various
polling places tomorrow.
At both the republican and demo-
cratic headquarters today, arrange
ments were being made to put men
in the field early tomorrow morning
and every precinct will probably see
more republican and democratic
workers on hand.
Everything Closed.
Tomorrow being election day and a
legal holiday, all the county offices,
banks and federal Offices will be
closed. Postmaster Brunton issued a
notice today that the postoffice would
observe Sunday hours opening at 10
and closing at II o'clock.
