at Powers last trial, and who has been
designated by Gov. Bcckham as special
Judge for the present trial
I hr trial about to begin is the fourth
trial Of the famous case. Three times
has Powers been convicted of completely

Outcome of Harlans Decision.
The present trial is the outcome of a
decision made by Justice Harlan Of the
mtrd States supreme court, who rem
dcred his opinion that the jurisdiction
Of the state and not the federal courts
was paramount after the case had three
times gone to the court Of appeals, which
ordered a new trial each time.
The friends of Powers desired to have
the present trial held before a federal
court, advancing for their argument the
statement that Powers was being
deprived Of his constitutional right
OBJ lair trial. They based their
charges ON Powers two former trials,
when the jurics were composed
uI twelve GochoI men, while, at his
last trial. eleven of the men who held his
fate in their hands were followers Of the
Goohel faction, although the remaining
juror was not closely allied to any party.

MURDERER TO PLEAD
INSANITY

SEATTLE, Oct. 24.-Was Dow
Smith temporarily insane when he
killed his wife and mother-in-law
on the morning of June q last, in
their Green Lake home?
On this question depends his fate
at the hands of the jury which is
being selected in the superior
court to try him for the murder of
his divorced wife, Anna Smith.
No one claims that Smith is in
sane at present. No one has claim
ed that he was ever insane prior
to June q, when, with his smok-
ing pistol. he sent death to the
two defenseless women. But in the
absence of any other possible line
of defense. his attorneys will ad-
vance the theory that he was tenn
porarily insane when he committed
the deed and will offer testimony to
substantiate the claim.

STATE LOSES WALKER
|. INHERITANCE TAX

q OLYMPIA, Oct. 24.-This state
will lose $500 inheritance tax on
the estate Of Samuel Walker, who
died In Spokane county, and may
lose many thousands. all because
of treaty negotiated with Great
Britain in 1900 by John Hay when
secretary of state. That year the
treaty was made which contained a
provision that Englishmen in this
country could devise their personal
estate to persons living in the old
country and that no duties nor
charges other than those exacted
from citizens of this country would
be exacted. Washington's inherit
ance tax law provides for a Is per
cent tax on all inheritances of for
eigners and the state had conf

the $4,000 estate willed by Mr..
Walker to his relatives in England,

ANOTHER FIGHT
ON PRIMARY
TACOMA LAWYER CLAIMS VlO-
LATION OF CON
IN MANNER OF ElECTlNG
COUNTY JUDGES,

TACOMA. Oct. 24.-There is a
question among the legal fraternity
here as to the constitutionality Of
section SO of the direct primary
law, which deals with the selection
of judges. The law seems to pro-
vide for non-partisan election of
the judges, attorneys who have
studied the matter here say, but in
so doing, they claim. it makes the
primary election final in it's selec-
ton of the judges and leaves no
choice to be exercised by the voter
at the general election.
Attorneys examining the matter
believe that this is a violation of
the constitutional provision that the
judges shall be chosen at the gen.
eral election.
Taking the matter up in detail,
it is shown that the same list of
names of candidates for judges
shall appear on the ballot of all
parties at the primary election and
that only the names of the candi-
dates receiving the highest primary
vote snail appear on tne Dallot W
be voted at the general election. In
this county, for instance, three
judges are to be elected. All the
names of candidates, whatever
their party affiliations, will be on
all the tickets to be voted at the
primaries. but only the three re-
ceiving the highest vote cast at the
primaries will be placed on the
ticket for the general election.
Hence, the attorneys say, the
voters will have no power of choice
at the general election, which is
limitation on the suffrage not sane
toned by the constitution, they as
sert.
A solution of the tangle is prom

personally those who are deaf
Mr.. Way, formerly mechanical
engineer by profession, was deaf
himself for 25 years, and it was to
relieve his own trouble that he de-
voted his mechanical skill, and
years of special study of the ear,
to solving the problem of an arti-
fetal aid to hearing. His theory
that the human ear is only a deli
cate piece of mechanism has been
proved true, and it is interesting
to see Mr.. Way remove from his
ears the little devices, without
which he is as badly off as those
who daily consult him for defective
hearing. The success of the Way
Ear Drum in relieving deafness is
unquestioned Coupled with the
absolute, correct, scientific prin-
ciple in design, the Way Ear
Drums appeal strongly from the
fact that they are invisible, are
painless, cannot collapse in the
ear, are easily placed and removed,
and best of all, restore hearing.

and the various conditions which

fact that he is accompanied during
his visit to Spokane by his wife,
DR.. r. M. Way, of Detroit, one OF

lists in the treatment of the ear TO-
Gated in that city. Those who call

NO BENEFIT IN.
COAL RATE
RAILROAD COMPANY HAS AD.
vANCED TARIFF, AlTHOUGH
UNABLE TO DELIVER SHIP
MENTS MADE LAST JULY.

Il want the public to understand
that the published rate on coal
shipments to Inland Empire points
from the great lakes will be OF no
practical benefit to this section,
SAYS. Nelson Martin. of the ROCK
Springs Coal Co. This rate has
been in erect for years. The
charge to Spokane is Sc per ton
and SO cents has been added to
designations outside the city in
this territory.
There is no soft coal than can
nav that rate We are now paying
for Wyoming coal the highest tariff
that ii Is possible to charge and
do business. the tariH from Wyom-
ing points being s4to per ton. All
this talk in the newspapers OF re-
lief through shipments from the
great lakes is nonsense. | visited
the Wyoming mines lately and
found 555 cars of coal tied up in
the yards of the Northern Paclflc
at Billings alone. The side tracks
of this company are lined up with
cars. A member of the Montana
railway commission was at Billings
at the same time as myself. He
was investigating conditions and
seeking to compel the railroad peo-
pie to do something.
THE railway officials claimed
that the boilermakers' strike was
responsible for existing conditions
In this connection will say that
found cars in the yards at Billings
consigned to me that had been
shipped in July or some time prior
to the boilermakers' strike
Mr.. Martin complained of the
fact that the railroads have raised
the freight rates on coal shipped
from Wyoming points rs cents per
ton. This rate became effective on
the first of the month.
ITO tie up coal shipped last
summer, fail to make deliveries,
and then raise the price of trans
portation charges seems to me to
be unfair" he declared.
In speaking of the condition OF
the Wyoming mines Mr.. Martin
said they were prepared to supply
all the coal needed in the North
west. Great Improvements have
been made by the companies for
the purpose of meeting the in
creased demands for the product OF
their mines and there need be no
famine or coal shortage unless the
railroads fail to furnish enough
cars.
This city is in good shape for
the winter from a fuel standpoint,
continued Mr.. Martin, "and no un'
easiness is felt on that score"
