which. il granted, would allow the re-
lease of DR.. Gillette on bail pending
a decision by the higher courts. Coun-
Eel for the defendant told the Judge
that he believed a sentence to prison
would amount to a death sentence.
Nevertheless District Attorney jerome
said this could not weigh with the
court, inasmuch as it was involved in
what the man had brought upon him
self by his acts, which could not in the
interest Of justice be overlooked. Gil
lette's counsel contended that If his
client had done wrong it was out of
loyalty to his superiors and that he
stood there suffering for the sins Of
others.
Later Gillette was released on $751;
600 bail. n certificate of reasonable.

Professor Giddings says it is idle to
debate whether the convention of 1857
intended to create this power. but.
granting that such a power exists, it is
not idle to ask if that is the conclusion
Of the whole matter. He holds that the
unconstitutionality of an act of con-

THE wooDMAN FINANCES

E. e. Rittenhouse, state commits
sioner of insurance, in a letter to l.
I. Book, head consul of the Woodmen
of the World (Pacific jurisdiction)
made public yesterday calls atten-
tion to the fact that during the past
year the amount collected for the
benefit or mortuary fund was $76,-
SIG, less than the benefits paid to
members.
Mr.. Rittenhouse also finds that an
insufficient sum of money is provided
for the expenses of the order and that
there Is unjust discrimination in the
rates charged for insurance, the rate
TO new members being about twice
that which the original members OF
the organization are paying.
The insurance commissioner finds
that the order is entirely solvent with
a total of S1,401,S53 on hand, most
of which is in the reserve fund, but
he recommends that the order adopt
without delay some method of pro-
viding first an adequate expense ac-
count fund; second, the elimination
of unjust discriminating. the third,
adequate rates to protect the policy
obligation.
The order has over 100, 900 mem
ters, a quarter of whom reside in
Colorado.
The recommendations of Mr.. Rit-
tenhousc are concurred in by Mr..
Boak.

For some unknown reason the
small party of men, headed by Mr..
Harris, who came into theSyalley
ten days ago to work on permanent
survey of "The Grand River Canal

only and which 1t was claimed was
backed by a capitalization of 49,
100000 have left the county.
Yesterday the men stored their
camping outfit which they purchased
some time ago in this city, turned
their horses out in a pasture and left
for some unknown points in Utah,
They informed several people that
they would return in a few weeks.
They would not discuss their plans to
any extent whatever.
The party, numbering six men
has been camping just northeast of
the city since coming here. When
they purchased their outfit two weeks
ago, Mr. Harris, the head man, stat
ed that he expected to complete the
survey as rapidly as possible and to
have about sixty men at work before
July was ended.
Why this sudden termination to
operations has been made cannot be
learned Some think that the party
will proceed no further with the sur
vey, others believe they viii return

MUST BE LOCAL REGISTRAR
TO KEEP DEATH RECORDS

Undertaken Gourley informed the
Sentinel this morning that under the
new state law regarding vital sta
tistics there must, in the future, be
local registrar in each district, said
district to be made up of a city, a
town or a county, and with this reg
istrar all death certificates must be
filed. Heretofore the certificates have
been filed with the county clerk and
recorder. OF course copies of certi-
ficates will continue to be filed with
the secretary of the state board OF
health.
The local registrar Is to receive a
fee of 20 cents for each certificate FL
ed with him. His term of office is
to be for two years. However, if the
board of health appoints a regular
salaried county officer as registrar
then ne cannot receive these fees.
The new law on vital statistics pro-
vides quite a number of other chang
es from the old plan and system OF
regulations.

truly a hot wind as it caused the
temperature to rise to IS degrees
shortly after midnight. Under nor.
NAL conditions. with a clear sky such
as prevailed last night, the tempera-
ture falls uninterruptedly until about
sunrise. The conditions must have
been produced by external influences
and It is possible that something
like the Egyptian Khamsin, or hot
wind from the Sahara, but of course
on a much smaller scale, was the
cause of the unusual conditions.
