OPPOSED To
SACKINc Grain

Spokane, Jan. 21.-Members of
the Inland Threshers Association.
who cut and harvested 40,S15, 200
bushels of wheat on 100000 acres
in the twelve grain counties in east
ern Washington last fall, at con-
vention in Spokane placed them
selves on record as being opposed to
the present method of sacking grain
for shipment to eastern, middlewest-
ern, southern and oriental markets.
They are in favor of handling wheat
in bulk, for the reason it is more
economical from the points of waste
and expense, and means that the
grower will receive from " to 2
cents a bushel more for his grain
than if it is shipped in sacks. AS
from 100000 to 20,000,000 sacks
are made yearly by the convicts in
the penitentiary at Walla Walla, the
change to bulk wheat will cut off a
large revenue from the state, but
C. w. Mohr, president of the thresh-
ermen, says that this is no argument
to continue the present method.
The association will make a canvas
of the wheat belts to enlist the sup
port of the farmers, who pay for
the sacks.

LANHAM CASE DECIDED

A report from Olympia states the
Lanham-Wenatchee Canal Co. case
has been decided by the Supreme
Court in favor of Lanham. The re-
port says:
z. A. Lanham ct ux., respondent,
VS.. Wenatchee Canal Company, ap-
pellant. Lanham obtained manda-
tory injunction in Chelan county di-
recting the canal company to deliver
water into what is known as the
Settlers Ditch" The canal company
had sold him a water right which
permitted him to pump water from
its canal to land not capable of be-
ing irrigated by gravity. The canal
company owned stock only in the
Settlers Ditch, and Lanham was per-
mitted to draw water from it for a
time. The company suddenly ceased
delivering water to the ditch. The
supreme court holds that the company
gave only a parole right to water in
/ the ditch, which was subject to re-
vocation without notice.

ANOTHER

POSSIBILITY
Rumored that Ballinger Will Try for
the Nomination.

Seattle, Jan. 20.-The rumor that
Judge R. A. Ballinger resigned his
Office as general land commissioner

rapidly gaining ground. So far
Judge Ballinger has made no state
ment concerning the matter, but the
report is generally accepted as true,

If Judge Ballinger should enter
the race, the contest for the nomina-

Former Residents of Wenatchee
Bring Suit to Prevent Man
from Courting Daughter.

Seattle, Jan. 20.-Is a girl of on
ly IA years of age sufficiently well
versed in the ways of the world to
choose her own course in the ques-
ton of accepting the attentions of
a proposed sweetheart?
This is the remarkable question
which was practically put up to the
consideration of Judge Morris in the
superior court this morning.
AS a preliminary step toward set
tling the issue upon its legal merits,
the court issued an order temporari-
ly enjoining Alfred Wise, aged 27,
from continuing his advances for the
hand of Mildred Cross, aged IA. The
girl is a daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
William NJ. Cross, of 609 Blewett
avenue.
The parents take violent eXcep-
tions to the professions UT aneUr1o--
which they allege Wise has made to
the girl. In order to remove the girl
from his reach they have placed her
as a student in the Seattle seminary,
at Ross, but, according to a COM
plaint filed with the county clerk, the
young man has insisted on writing
the object of his affection love let
ters at her new domicile, and has
continued his lovemaking, to which
the parents take violent exception.
This is the first time in the history
of the local courts that the law has
been appealed to in order to ham
per the course of what is ordinarily
termed true love. The girls parents
allege in their complaint that Wise
has not means or property, and they

BOARD TO IGNORE

Incident in Lowell School Is a
Closed Episode With Edu-
catiOnaI Body

So far as the board of education is
concerned, the searching of so pupils
in Professor Francis E. Crofts' room
at the Lowell high school Thursday is
a closed incident. No charges will be
preferred against Principal Frank Nor
ton, who authorized the search, nor
against Crofts and Miss M. NJ. Cox,
who conducted it.
This was the decision of School Su-
perintendent Roncovieri yesterday aft
ernoon after he had made an official
investigation of the episode. Romeo
vieri heard the stories of the teachers
concerned. and also of several of the
pupils. and came to the conclusion that
nothing would be gained by making
charges of dereliction of duty, as the
case was the first of it's kind that ever
occurred in San Franciscoe
1t is distinctly understood, however,
that different steps will be taken by
the faculty of the school in future
whenever a question of theft arises,
and that no more searchings will be
tolerated by the school board
