EVERYBODY
REFUSES THE FEES
ACTING GOVERNOR ATKINSON
NOT THE ONLY UNPAID OFF,
CIAL JUROR.

Honor to whom honor is due and
it is not apparently, due to Acting
Governor Atkinson to be the first gov
eminent official the credit of refusing
to accept fees for testifying in a Grim
inal case. High Sheriff Henry says
he refused some time before the Act
ing Governor had the chance to refuse.
But the glory of the High Sheriff was
short lived, for here comes Chester
Doyle, former Criminologist and pre-
sent acting chief clerk of the attorney
generals department, with a counter
claim for the credit. Doyle says he
did it with his little refusal, hours be-
fore the High Sheriff.
In any event the territory and the
county are in about 81 by the refusal
of these public spirited officials to col
lect witness fees.

The Navy The author says that the

the open space on the armor about

gun by a hostile ship shooting moder-
ately straight, according to the stand

part:
THE soft end ship, especially the
ship with no armor protection for her
steering engines-a ship that is like
the six named-is easily rendered UNI
manageable, practically put out of the
fight, by a few shells in this unpro-
tected region. The unfitness of such
ships for battle was beautifully DEM

Russian armored cruiser Rurik by a
Japanese cruiser squadron in the re-

"The Burik was a soft end ship;

almost at the first fire, and the Jap

cruisers in pursuit of the other ships
of the Vladivostol squadron, leaving

Burik, and they sank her No battle

During the late wm In the Far
East the English built soft end ships
of the Russian fleet were easy victims;
the French built continuous belt ships

the virtue of that element in their de-

Heney in one of his statements. II
