arises that if the owners of the craft
comply with these federal require
ments, does not that in effect act as
a federal license for the boat, even
though it be not inspected; and under
those conditions can the state exercise
jurisdiction?
The pure food label questions are
practically those the federal authori-
ties have been wrestling with ever
since the national pure food law was
enacted. The state law copies the
federal law practically in its entirety.
The disposition of fines in criminal
cases is also a puzzler. as it is Of
financial interest to all taxpayers. In
1893 the legislature provided that in
all cases except where other DISPOSE
ton was specifically made by the law,
all fines paid in prosecution of cases
for violation of state laws should be
RENTED to the state school fund. In
vestigation recently disclosed that but
three counties are complying with this
law. All the other counties turn the
fines over to the county treasurers,
who presumably put the money into
the county school fund.
The money that comes to the state
treasurer is apportioned to all the
counties and the result of the pres
ent system is that most of the coun-
ties are getting each quarter part of
the fines from the counties which re-
nit here. The result of the investi-
cation of this matter by the attor-
ney general will probably be that all Of
the counties will be required to remit
to the state treasurer and the result
will be a large increase in the amount
OF state current school fund to be ap-
portioned quarterly

THE COLLEGE WIDOW.

This attraction at the keylor Grand
tonight is one of George AIDES
biggest hits in the play line. 1t has
a real college swing in every line from
start to finish, and when real college
students get hold of it there is nothing
this side of New York can beat it.
Mrs. Augusta Dolph, an actress of
wide experience, has had entire charge
of the play and has drilled the raw
material into about as good shape as
amateurs usually get. Every actor is
naturally adapted to playing his par
ticular part from the college Widow"
to the big Whitman guard who is play
ing his regular position on the foot
ball team. This gives an Quiet ror
talent which is not usually seen in
amateur performances and which
gives promise of the best performance
yet given by Whitman students.
The best part about the play is that
it gives chance for local hits that
are summers as we'll as some slvua.
tons which are so natural that every
body will be wondering where they
have seen that dose before. This
makes it about as popular a play as
was ever staged and with the humOr-
Gus parts of the play that are simply
killing" it makes a very successful hit
with the audience wherever it is stag
ed.
The College Widow has been extern
sively advertised, and from the sale
of seats today. it is expected that there
will be about as big a crowd as ever
attended show in Walla Walla.

Is the state navigation law invalid
because of an attempt to encroach on
matters exclusively within the juris-
diction of Uncle Sam? What label
should be placed on packages under
the new state pure food bill? Should
Ell fines collected in state cases come
to the state, treasury for the common
school fund?
These three questions are being in
vestigated at the office of the attor-
ney general and are giving the assist
ants considerable concern these warm
lays. states an Olympia report.
They admit there are important as
we'll as delicate legal questions in
volved and it will probably be several
days before the state legal advisors
will complete their researches among
the authorities and complete the re-
spective opinions. ~.
1t is generally known that the state
steamboat inspection law act, passed
by the last legislature. was intended
to supplement the federal navigation
avs and to reach craft not generally
touched by the federal laws. So far
an inspection and regulation of craft
on inland waters, lakes and streams is
concerned there is no trouble, for the
state there has exclusive jurisdiction.
The serious question comes with re-
Gpect to small launches, ETC., on the
sound and on other bodies of water
where the federal authorities have ju-
risdictiOn.
The federal authorities do not in
spect small craft, but the inspectors
under state laws do provide, for IN

The tax commission has list of

DEFINES POWERS OF
EQUALIZATION BOARD.

OLYMPIA, June 10.-Attorney-G Gen
eral j. D. Atkinson has rendered
an opinion to the effect that the board
of equalization of a county has no au-
thority to raise the assessed valuation
of real estate without giving legal
written notice to the owners Of such
property of intention to raise it's value
for assessment purposes: but in the
same connection he holds that when
the board of equalization has made
such increase, it cannot be reduced
after the board has adjourned, and the
county treasurer is without authority
to accept any less amount of taxes
than shown by the increased valuation
rolls
The only remedy, says the attorney
general, under the law. is for each in
dividual property owner to bring an
action in the court. to compel the
treasurer to accept the original
amount assessed. The prosecuting at
torney of Pacific county, who asks for
the opinion, is advised to not resist
the application for reduced assess
ment if it appears that the increase
was Illegally made.

BUILD new LINE TO
YELLOWSTONE PARK

CHICAGO, June 10.-Travelers to
Yellowstone Park will soon have a
new and more direct and picturesque
line of approach to this Wonderland.
Work was begun some time ago on an
extension of the Oregon Short Line
from st. Anthony, Idaho, to the Mad
ison river entrance at the southwest
corner Of the park. 1t is now more
than half completed and the Harri-
man engineers constructing the line
say that the track will be laid this
year on the portion remaining to be
built. There is a gap of only about
Is miles between the finished portion
Hf the Yellowstone Park railroad, as
the new line is to be called, and its
terminus at the Madison river point of
entry.
Scenically the new railway route
through the Colorado Rockies will be
very attractive. The Continental di-
vide through Rea's Pass is crossed
at an elevation of 1000 feet, and fdr a
long stretch in the Warm river can

tween ST. Anthony and Marysville, the
line passes through a rich agricul-
tural district Northeastward from
Marysville it traverses, for the most
part, forest reserve land of great nat
ural beauty, and a favorite hunting
ground. To build this 20 miles of
road will cost about $1,500,000. Mr..
Hartman, it is said, planned it after

the advantages of a southern railroad

Something new and radically differ

will be the attraction at the Keylor
Grand theater Tuesday, June II.
Dealing with Spanish life, the play
is one replete with interest. Don Be-
lero O'Alcarazas, governor of a Span
ish province and held in high esteem
at court. was yet pressed for ready
money. He had, however, two attrac
tive twin daughters, who were so much
alike that strangers could not dis
tinguiSh between them. One of the
principal creditors of the Don was the
banking firm of Marasquin and COM
nany, to whom he owed a large sum-
The wife of Don Bolero planned to
marry one of her daughters to the son
of Marasquin, thus disposing of the
debt to the father. She is successful
in betrothing the daughter, and by
second stroke of good fortune manages
to betroth her second daughter, Girof-
Ia to the Moor, Moorzouk, dangerous
and troublesome neighbor. On the
day set for the wedding young Senior
Marasquin arrives first on the scene,
While the ceremony is in progress
her twin sister, Girof1a is kidnapped
Shortly afterward her lover arrives to
marry her and the parents, believing
that she will be found and returned to
them in a few hours, and fearing to
toll the Moor the truth and mourning
his anger persuade the already mar
ried Girofle to go through the cere-
mony a second time.
Girofia is not found as soon as was
expected, and the doubly married Gil
rof1a is sorely tried in her role Of dual
wives. This forms the basis for a
number of side-splitting situations
that keep the piece moving with a
swing and VIM
Incidental to the piece there are a
number Of pleasing musical and dan

scenery is carried by the company for
this production and the play through
