Cheering News For Eureka

Sunday afternoon before going to press the SENTINEL received
the following dispatch from Superintendent Abbott OF the Eureka
and Paisade Railway:
Paisade, Nevada, July IL, 1908.
THE EUREKA SENTINEL:
The Eureka and Paisade Railway will commence
handling $50 tons of Richmond-Eureka ore daily, begin
ming at once. g. d. ABBOTT.
Referring to an article published in another column in this issue
it will be seen that a temporary agreement had been entered into
between the Richmond-Eureka Mining Company and the Eureka
and Paisade Railway Company to haul from 100 to 1875 tons of ore
daily, gradually increasing the tonnage to $50 tons daily as sooD as
the road bed and rolling stock could be put in better condition.
MI. Abbotts dispatch would indicate that the mining company
was not fully satisfied with a less tonnage than $50 tons of ore
daily, and have no doubt made a more liberal contract with the
railway company than has heretofore been in force.
In order to put the T. & P. road bed in condition to handle $50
tons of ore daily it is stated a considerable sum of money will have
to be expended for new ties and rails, besides the employment of a
number OF men on construction work. This, with the large force
OF men that will be required at the mines to produce the maximum
tonnage asked for by the smeters, should greatly increase the
amount of money paid out monthly in this district

Abel Advertises His Pull.

AS stated at the outset. we propose
to prove that w. II. Abel has a strong
control of Judge Irwin ,andthat he ad-
vertises that fact to draw trade
While it is generally known on Grays
Harbor that almost all the corpora
tions on the HORROR of any magnitude
recognize this pull of Abel's, and ii
number of them pay him an annual
retainer, not so much to secure his
legal services as to keep him-and his
pull-frOm being against ihcr Saw
mills and logging companies are liza
bic to be in court any time: acci-
dents and disputes are or frequent
occurrence, and they fear this pu,i of
Abels sufficiently to pay him the re
tainer rather than have this pull
against them.
Abel is not SO constructed as to
permit his modesty to interfere with
his business, and he Omits no auspi-
ciOus occasion to quietly advertise
the fact that to win case in the
superior court of Chehalis county it
is all important that w. II. Abel ie
your attorney. This, as we have
said, is a matter of common knowl-
edge on Grays Harbor, but the proof
is not so available. Some of fhe
parties interested are ashamed of the
connection, while others have used
or have use for this unscrupul )us
lawyer in the course of style of
twilight business, and for those rea-
sons are somewhat reluctant to 'ad-
nit the connection and the reasons
for it.
But the cupidity of Abel himself
has furnished the proof, and in con-
nection with this case of Henry A.
kalb. After working his pull in this
case, Abel evidently considered Kalb
a desirable client and could not re-
sist an opportunity to turn a trick
to use the parlance best adapted to
this sort of business-so shortly after
the trial he informed Mr.. Kalb that
he, Kalb, should have won the case,
and that he would have won had he.
Abel. been his lawyer-leaving no in
ference possible than that he would
have got the continuance denied At
tOrney lodgdon through the court
favoritism. But let Mr.. Kalb tell
this story himself. which he does in
the following affidavit, made by him
last Monday while over from Ray
mond on business:

new trial, and Henry A. Kalb was
stuck for about $400, including costs
and attorney fees. True, he had a
right of appeal to the supreme court
and his attorney 50 advised. but Mr..
Kalb was so disgusted at his first eX-
perience in law court in the state
of Washington that he wanted no
more, and gave his check to the clerk
for the amount of the judgment and
costs, and left the courthouse with a
feeling of gladness that he escaped
without being stripped bare.
1t will be noted that in his affida-
Wit. Abel endeavors to make Kalb out
liar under oath in saying he had
been absent from the state. 1t may
be further noted that the Kalb af-
fidavit is dated April 8, while Abel's
statement that he saw Kalb at the
railroad depot in Aberdeen on the
Sth. seems to have been regarded by
Judge Irwin as sufficient evidence of
the untruthfulnesS of Kalb. 1t ap-
pears not to have occurred to the
courth that both affidavits might be
true as to this particular; that moth
ing was more probable that in order
to have made the affidavit in Hoqui-
am April 8, that Abel may have seen
Kalb at the depot on the Sth, as he
returned from his trip out of the
state. But the affidavits and mo-
tions of w. II. Abel arg noted for
passing readily and without question
with Judge Irwin.
