APPOINT HEALTH OFFICERS
State Laws Make It Necessary in
Incorporated Towns

In order that the laws of 1907, chap
ter SO, providing for the keeping of
vital statistics may be fully carried
out every incorporated town must ap-
point duly qualified physician health
officer of the town, who becomes at
once eX-Officio registrar of vital statis-
tics. Assistant Attorney General Mac
Donald rendered the following opinion
to Mayor Joseph G. Hawkins, of ,Yaki-
ma City on the subject:
Chapter SO of the session laws of
1907 provides that the health officer
of each city or incorporated town shall
be it's legal registrar and the act ap-
pears to make no provision where no
health officer has been appointed. The
attorney general is of the opinion that
it is the duty of the city to appoint a
health officer who thereupon becomes
ex-officio the local registrar. Section 2,
chapter IS. laws of 1907, provides that
the mayor of every incorporated city
and town except cities of the first class
shall each year appoint a legally quail
flied physician city health officer whose
compensation shall be fixed by the
city council and whose term of office
shall be until January 81 of the year
following that in which he is appointed
and qualified. 1t will be observed that
the law does not require the physician
to be a resident of the city for which
he is appointed, and therefore l be-
,ieve that the mayor may appoint any
legally qualified physician. and in or
der that the provisions of this act as
we'll as those of the act relating to vi
tai statistics may be performed, you
are advised that il would be proper for
you to Immediately appoint legally
qualified physician as city health Of
ficer"

in lack of any senSati- nal features,

occasioned by Councilman Dunham's
remarks anent the report of the water

A sensation would have been doubly
welcome as the oppressive heat of the
council chambers was not conducive
to rapid pulse, or high tensioned in
terest. Short cuts were occasion NJ
motion was finally made there was no
sign of dissent.
The doughty councilmen. however,
stuck to their posts until all the work
on hand had been performed, feav-

CALLS It SUCCESSFUL PLAN
Warden kinCaid Makes Report on
Grain Bags

OLYMPIA, July 3.-The new law de-
signed to secure wider distribution of
state prison grain bags is successful.
according to a report to the board of
control by Superintendent NJ. E. Kin
caid, of the penitentiary.
Heretofore grain bags were sold to
applicants in the order. their applica-
tons were received. The result was
that each year, as soon as prices We're
announced. Walla Walla grain grow
ers, being right on the ground, made
early applications and secured, as a
rule. 95 per cent of the output. AS in
recent years. the open market price for
bags was so per cent higher than the
prison price, there was a general de-
mand that all farmers in the state
should be given a chance to get the
cheaper state bags.
The last legislature provided for al
lotting the bags to the grain growing
counties on the basis of the grain COM
missioner's crop estimate. and that af-
ter July 1 all bags not applied for
might be sold in the open market gen.
orally The board early this year
made its allotment of $4,000 sacks. of
which 775.O00 were appOrtiOned to the
chief grain-growing counties.
Of these. 445.13O bags have been
applied for, 6624O of which are from
growers outside of Walla Walla coun-
ty. Whitman county. which heretofore
rarely secured any sacks, has already
received about 100000 of her allot-
ment of $4,000. and Spokane county
has received 1890 of an allotment of

catch basins, or one catch basin and
one intake chamber, be installed on
First street between Poplar and AL
der streets, was referred to the stree,
committee with power to act.
The ordinance for the extension of
the concrete bulk head on the south
side of Mill creek from the east line
of the alley west from Nokomis lane
to the west end of Nokomis lane was
read the first, second and third times
and finally passed.
Upon the report of Chief Metz of
the need of two soft suctions for the
steamers of the fire department, the
fire committee was empowered to pur-
chase the suctions, the price of when
is SIS each.
Chief Metz reported to the council
the resignation of Frank De Grace
driver for station No. 2, and the ap-
pointment of William Kolb to fill his
place.
In the matter of printing, the COM
mittee recommended that the city
clerk call for bids on each piece OF
printing desire, although the Washing
ton Printing & Book Manufacturing
company was the best bidder for the
city on blank book work

THUGS THREATEN MERCHANT many ANNUAL REPORTS FnEDI
Monroe, Ore, Business Nan Marked
for Death

A. wilhelm, the we'll known Mon
roe, Ore, merchant, received brough
the mails a few days ago a letter warn
ing him that he and his sons, Mat
thew and Adam, have been marked for
death. and that the last Of August is
the limit of their allotted time. Their
taking off is declared to be by the Or
chard method, with bomb planted at
the yard gate, as was done in the case
of Ex-Governor Steunenberg Of Idaho.
The letter is signed "A Farmer" and
relates that six men who believe the
Wilhelms have wronged them, have
sworn to visit death on the well known
business men. Five hundred dollars is
to be given to the member of the gang
that will assassinate the first Will
helm and instant death is to be the
por: ion of any member of the gang who
peaches on the others.
What tends to lend gravity to the
incident is that several weeks ago
what seemed to be deliberate attempt
to burn the big store of the firm at
Monroe was made, states one report
Kerosene oil was placed at several
points about the building, and a
match was applied, but for some rea-
son the conflagration miscarried. Now
comes the letter saying that ''the
kid who was to burn the building be-
came frightened and put out the fire
after he had lighted it. The letter also
says the plan a. that time was for the
WilhelmS to be picked off one by one.
as they came out to the fire. which by
the way. was scheduled for a late hour
at night.
The Wilhelms. whose well known es-
adjustment al Monroe is one of the
largest in the Willamette valley, also
say open threats of the character made
in the letter have been heard of on
several occasions. The firm owns
Touring mills at Monroe Junction and
Harrisburg, and are business men and
citizens of high character. They are
disposed to regard the letter as a Sc
riOus ma ter. and have surmises as to
the identity of some of those from
whom trouble might be expected. The
Wilhelms have been doing business in
the vicinity a great many years.
