District Freight and Passenger Agent
SAILORS ASK SECRETARY
STRAUSS TO HELP Them

A deputation of masters, pilots ana
marine engineers at Seattle presented
Secretary Strauss with a memorial
few days ago asking that he give MS
attention to several grievances that
they wished remedied. The secretary
responded that the remedies asked for
lay within the rights of congress, but
that he would see that the matter
was placed before the congressman
for the Puget sound section of the
country.
Some of the things the memorial
asked for were that the seamen, fire.
men and officers connected with Unit
ed States shipping be enrolled under
certain regulations with a retaining
fee or service pension; that the diff
ferential rate offered railroads to sea-
port cities is destructive to marine
trade: that officers and engineers re-
ceive licenses only after a residence OF
10 years in the port; that the fishing
industry is in danger and should be
encouraged; and that training schooI
should be established for boys.

ATTORNEY GENERAL GIVES
RULING ON SCHOOL LAWS

OLYMPIA, July 22.-Answering
number of categorical questions pro-
pounded by State Superintendent Bry-
an relating to the school laws Attor-
ney General Atkinson has held that it
is not obligatory upon principals of all
schools having eighth grade pupils to
give the state examination as pro-
vided for il. section so of the code of
public instruction; and that the prin-
cipaI of the high school can therefore
admit grammar school pupils to the
high school without taking such an
examination; that a high school prin-
cip1l has the right to condition" a
grade pupil into the high school, and
that while the state superintendent
has the power to determine the mini
mum number of credits for promotion
to the high school, it does not carry
with it the right to prepare the exam
ination questions.

NO LICENSE LESS THAN YEAR
Attorney General Gives Opinion On
Time Limit

Attorney General Atkinson has rem
state treasurer in answer to the fol-
lowing three questions propounded to
him by the treasurer:
First, can a state liquor license be
issued for a period of less than one
year and for fee less than $25? Sec
ond, can a state liquor license be
transferred from one party to another
during the term for which it was is
sued, and third, can the place of BUSH
ness designated in the state license be
changed during its existence?
The attorney general holds that in
the absence of any provision in law
permitting the state treasurer to ac-
cept a lesser amount than $25 for
fractional part of a year Only a full
years license can be granted.
In regard to the second and third
clause the attorney general gives the
following opinion:
Under the statute of 1907, chapter
1874, any person, firm or corporation de-
string a liquor license may obtain the
same by payment of $25. No qualif1-
cation is required. No public trust is
imposed. 1t is not a police regula -ion.
1t is an additional license to that i'm
posed by the city or county. 1t ought
to be treated as properly. AS mat
ter of practice cities permit the as
s:gnment of. liquor licenses and like
wise a change of location. There
ought to be harmony between the
practice of the state and cities and
counties. The law doesn't prohibit as
signments or SALE"
That the state may be advised as
to whose the license fee is the attorney
general suggests that there be en-
dorsed upon or written in each license
that a transfer of the same to different
persons or other premises may be had
upon the approval of the state treas
urer. This will enable the treasurer to
prevent any abuse of the rights of
transfer.

trouble began in the third, when Grain,
pitching for the soldiers, threw his

the catcher seemed there with the
goods, but the pace proved too hot
for him. Meantime, Grain, who went

THE PAROLE SYSTEM.

A dispatch to the Spokesman Re
view from Olympia announces sur
prise" is the result of the declaration
of Governor Mead. interpreting the in
determinate sentence law, that every
convict. except those guilty of treason
or murder. or are habitual criminals,
are entitled to parole. The absurd
statement is made that under the ru-
ling a prisoner may serve one day and
then be subject to parole and eventual
pardon.
Il has always been the policy of the
Spokane paper to discredit the COVER
nor on all possible occasions. even to
the point of sacrificing its own dig
nifty and news accuracy. This is. pos
sibiy, the reason so radical an inter-
probation is placed on the governors
announcement
AS a matter of fact the indetermin-
ate sentence law was passed for the
very reason which formed the basis
of the governors declaratior.-to place
a premium on good behavior and re-
formation. That premium is a parole
when good behavior and possible re-
formation is assured and pardon
when that reformation has been de-
mons,rated.
In nearly every state where the in
determinate sentence law is in opera
ton, early paroles are recommended in
the cases of all but hardened crimi-
mails. 1t is true a provision is made
that no parole may be granted within
less than eleven months. the good tin,e
service for q years sentence. but the
same condition will undoubtedly pre-
vail through the power welded by the
mum time for a full pardon is one
year instead of six months after the
parole is granted.
There is no danger of a real GRIM
inal being released in one day, one
week. or one month No board OF
pardor.s would have the temerity tc
make such ruling. The parole system
has met with signal success in many
states. l In some others it has beer
abused. But before Washington &C.
cep.s the wild theories of the Spokes-
man Review. the people will give the
Wv law a fair trial-and the con-
victs a reasonable opportunity.
