That Contribution.

The letter dated Olympia,
Aug. /, 1908. evidently refers
10 the $500 which was TO have
been sent Root by Gordon for
his campaign expenses. The
money was to have been sent
10 E. B. Palmer, Roots former
law partner, but was never
sent. Root has already told
friends OF this incident, and
long ago admitted having writ
ten Gordon two or three letters
relating to the offered oontribu-
ton.
The letter dated Olympia,
Sept %. 1906. brings a new
feature into the investigation,
in that il indicates that Root,
while supreme court justice, ac-
cepted transportation from the
Great Northern railroad.
The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1908-12-24
Not if Importance.

The other letters merely tend
10 prove the existence Of a close
relationship between Gordon
and Root. Such relationship
might. OF course, with all pro-
prie,y. exist, inasmuoh as Cor
don and Root and their fam
lilies for many years past have
been very intimate.
Judge Root has declared 10
his friends that when he was
given the opportunity he would
be able to explain away every
letter ever written by him to
Gordon that might in any way
be construed as indicating the
payment to him OF any money,
with the single exception of
those letters relating 20 the
contribution Gordon Offered to
make to aid him in his cam
paign.

Roots Opportunity.

This afternoon Root is being
given that opportunity With
the exception of possibly one
more witness, he win be the
last to be heard by the COM
mittee. The report to be made
to the president OF the State
Bar association will be pre-
pared within a few days, and
will be forwarded
1t is believed that this report
will mark the end Of the Root
matter. and that it will have no
other effect than determining
Judge Root 20 make no move
toward qualifying for the full
term TO which he was elected
last November.
Palmer and Lysons.
Yesterday afternoon +. b.
Palmer and ]. Win Lysons
were before the committee and
questioned, it is understood, re-
garding the $500 Gordon con-
tribution TO the Root campaign
fund. II developed that Root
had authorized Palmer 60 ex-
pend the money on Gordon's
promise that he would send il,
and that Lysons had disbursed
it in payment for advertise
meuts in country papers and
for other printing.

Y. NJ. c. a. NOTES.
Observation-Disclosures

The organization of the Young
Mems Christian association is pro-
crossing nicely. Already forty young
men have taken out membership and
signified their desire to take up the
work of the different committees so
that they will be ready to carry on
the work when the building is open
ed. The charter membership will be
open for some time to come to allow
all who wish to become charter MEM
bers. If you are interested in the
work for young men here is an oppor-
tunity to render valuable service.
The association was represented at
the Student Conference at Cascade,
Colo. last week by Walter LeClere.
Harold Aupperle and Frank Lums-
den. They report a successful con-
ference with 25S present.
Work on the building is progress
ing rapidly, the brick work being
about half done. This calls for large
payments of money and the finance

are in arrears would make payment

ants, making up syrups, packing

branch stores, and manufacturing the
ice cream dispensed at the soda
fountain.
The basement runs the full length
of the building and is all occupied
by Mr. Smith. The packing depart
ment is in the center OF the base
ment, and every convenience is here
supplied for the quick shipment of
stock to the branch stores and also
for original packages manufactured
cream freezing is done and the labor
of hands has given away to three
horse power electric motor which
drives the cans in which cream is
being frozen This is no more a
laborious process, but is done with
neatness. cleanliness and dispatch.
Mr.. Smith was asked by The SEN
tinel man what proportion of the
stock he carried in the basement de-
partment of the store. and his answer
was, fully one-third of the stocks
carried in the four stores of the COM
pany."
Everything that is used in the four
stores of the C. ID. Smith company

repacked and reshipped as the neces-
stiles of the stocks require in the
other stores. Without seeing the
amount of stock carried in reserve
by Mr.. Smith, anyone would have
little conception of the character of
the business operations of The Smith
company stores. In the main store,
corner of Fifth and Main streets, in
the Currie block, eight clerks are en-
ployed at all times, and in all the
stores there are fourteen clerks.
The parent store and its care is
the especial pride of Mr.. Smith and
for years it has been show place
among the business concerns of this
city. The beautiful fountain is one
of the handsomest in the state, and
every character of drink that the
deft hands of an expert manipulation
can concoct are sold across the eoun-
ter.
The business of the c. d. Smith
Drug company in this city and il
Palisade and Fruita have been built
up on the square deal plan. Salts
faction always is the business slogan
of Mr. Smith. and it is strictly ad-
hered to on all occasions. The c. ID.
Smith Drug company is the Oldest
drug concern in Grand Junction and
Mesa county.
1t will pay you to visit anyone of
the Smith stores in Grand Junction,
Palisade or Fruita at any time.
