EHEAVILY FINED

The chief of police of Grafton
was arrested and given a stiff fine
recently. DIR. H. A. Jar
rett was the complainant. DR..
Jarrett's horse was standing on the
street in that town with its forefeet
on the sidewalk. The chief came
along and struck the animal on the
nose with his mace. For this he
was arrested on a warrant sworn out
by the doctor and fined something
like $500. The chief then had
the doctor arrested for allowing his
horse to encroach on the sidewalk
and for this the doctor was fined SIS
but asked that it be raised to $40
and then took an appeal.

know any better, he told the mayor,
so he was discharged from custody

TIMES AGREES.

The Fairmont Times makes tn,
following comment On Mayor
Harmer:
iMayor Harvey Harmer, of
C~larksburg, has succeeded in getting
the Republican paper, the Telegram,
down on him and it is probably due
to his desire to control the utter
ances of the press on every matter
that came up. The Telegram ac-
cuses Harmer of playing to the
grand stand and if it is true that
he refuses to accept salary for act
ing as mayor it is good reason to
accept the kilograms view"
The Times is slightly mistaken
about the salary feature. Mayor
Harmer takes $50 a month for his
services and keeps it. But when he
imposes a fine he also imposes a dol
lar costs, in compliance with the or
dinances, and turns that over to the
city. 1t is not known whether when
he retires from the Office of mayor
he will donate a dollar to the city
every time a prisoner pays a dollar
costs in police court, but having set
the pace he Will likely have to keep
it up all the remainder of his life
to be consistent. If he feels he is
not entitled to the dollar, it is but
right that he should feel Shat the
city is not entitled to it either.

Uncle Watt has come again to
the rescue of the Democrats as of
yore. Two years ago he played the
Prohibition end of it to help the
Democratic clique, but for some rea-
son or other he has not ben able to
land anything-not even an office in
the court house basement, and then
the bulls are gone.

The News is terribly worried over
Sam Wilson. That is not at all
strange, if it is really true as some
say that he called one day with soap,
and, when asked what he wanted
with it, replied: 81 want to wash
this administration off my hands"
The news seeks to get him back into
the fold.

River Stages.

The stage of the river here is 1915,
tho gauge registering a fall in the last
"a hours of 4. Business at the
wharf this week has held up well.
Capt. Robert Hunter left at 2
O'Clock this morning with the Bob
Dudley for Nashville. The Dudley
will resume the upper Cumberland
river trade. Capt Armstrong
brought the Henry Harley TO the
city yesterday afternoon from the
Cumberland river and will superin-
tend the repairs on it to be made at
the ways. The Harley will run an
excursion Sunday to Cairo for ne
groes.
The Scotia will be let into the
river next week probably wednesday.
A new hull has been built on the
Scotia aud the boat changed from
side to stern wheel. The Royal will
be taken out after the Scotia Is fin
ished. The Henrietta viii require
ten days or two weeks more to be re-
paired.
The Gate City. which will enter
the Paducah-Dycusburg trade, has
not been Inspected. but probably will
be next week.,
The Lydia left for the Tennessee

The Phillip Miller ranch of 400 &c
res which for years has been pointed
out with pride as ths largest and one
of the mort reproductive ranches in
the Wenatchee valley, will. in a few
days, be cut up into acre tracts and
sold. The ranch has been the property
of Mr.. Miller for over twenty years
and was one Of the first i'll the vale,
10 be put under water. The land is
watered by one of the best systems in
the country and is in possession of
water the year round. The supply is
of such a nature that as soon as the
the land is settled by owners of small
tracs, pressure system which is said
Will be better than the system which
furnishes the city of Wenatchee with
water, will be installed and the land
holder, will be given the benefit of a
metropolitan improvement.
The land Is TO be put ON the maj Ket

After lasting th1ee DAYS curing
which some of the most sensational
evidence ever heard iD court in Chelan
county was brought out, the trial of
Judge. Victor Martin came to close
last night at six o'clock when Judge
Poindexter in the superior court rend-

guilty IA of the specifications out of
the 20 filed against him iu disbal ment
proceedings instituted by the Chelan
County Bar association, and sentenced
Martin to dis oarment from practice of
law in state of Washin gton for period
of three years.
In summing up the evidence Judge
Poindexter found that Martin had
violated everything that goes to make
up the ethics of the profe ssion and
that he had violated every principle of
professional honor and in
tegrity that which ON the bench he
espoused the cause of certain litigants
and sought VIII lie such litigation was
pending to secure employment as at
torney for tie litigants; that while
on the bench he entered into and
maintained an active law partnership
and obtained one half the proceeds of
the partnership. Not in single
instance did Judge Poin-
dexter uphold the conduct of Martin
in the cases in question nor did he
commend HIM for any action or tran
sactlon whatever. The whole sub
stance of the counts npdings was
condemnation of Martin az a lawyer
and a condemnation of his actions
while judge. Not a single utterance
was made by the court which could
be construed as defense of the
former Judge and not all act wss ex-
cused or palliated.
