the higher education destroys native

Men Of sixty are spryer than men of

SHOULD KNOW THE TRUTH.

A story of graft comes from Palouse
that will require a good deal of eX-
planning on some ones part, for the
tale as told places Prosecuting Attor-
ney Kipp in a most unfavorable light.
The saloons of Palouse were tightly
closed last Sunday, and the saloon
keepers allege that the enforcement of
the law came to punish them for
failure to contribute to a protection
fund, which one of their number So
licited on the claim that it was to go
to the prosecuting attorney to assure
them against prosecution in keeping
open illegally. 1t is said that Joe
Stark represented to each saloon keeper
that his payment to the fund was to
be $25 per quarter. the houses of i'll
fame to pay $50 per quarter. In speak
ing of the affair, the Palouse Repub-
lie says: 1.-THE closing of the houses
on Sunday created quite stir after
Sheriff Ratliff and Deputy Daily APP
peared on the scene Monday and began
gathering affidavits against Prosecut-
ing Attorney Kipp, in which it was
charged that each of the saloon pro-
prietors had been approached and So
licited to sign an ironclad agreement
to pay $25 each three months into a
common fund to go to Mr.. Kipp, in
return for which they would be pro-
tected in conducting open bars on Sun
days. Some such affidavits from sa-
loon men the sheriff claims to have
procured, though those making them
do not in any way charge that Mr..
Kipp was behind the solicitation or
even knew of it. 1t is said the So
Letting was done by one of their own
number, and that such proposals were
made seems to be true whether auth
orized or unauthorized. -
The good name of Whitman county
demands that the truth of this matter
be promptly brought to light, and the
proper way of getting at the truth
would seem to be through a grand
jury. In case of this kind. involv-
ing the integrity of a county official.
and especially where that official has
to do with the dealing out of justice.
and the conduct of the county courts.
the matter of the expense of the grand
jury should not weigh too heavily,
and the popular demand is that Judge
Chadwick call such jury, and that ii
be called soon enough to complete its
labors before harvest.
