HELLRERe BEGAN EARLY.
He Has Made a Life Study of the
Watch-Ask Him About Watches.

When Hellberg began his work at
the bench in a jewelry store in the old
country he determined to know all
there was to know about watches. He's
been studying ever since and says he's
learning something every day But he
has learned a great deal about watches.
That knowledge is at your service. He
stakes his reputation on the I4ongines
watch as a leader and in twelve years
of dealing he has found nothing better.
He has other watches, but he thinks
this watch is the peer of any made. If
you want good watch talk to Hellbrrg
about the Longines.

he was taken i'll. He had not since
been able to attend to his duties on

his condition had been such that
death was not wholly unexpected.

Union Pacific Calls for Bids for Con-

Harbor.

TACOMA, Dec. 6.-The Union Pa
cific Railway Co., has issued a call
for bids yesterday for the construc-
tion of the Grays Harbor extension
and the main line between Portland
and Tacoma. The order for the
work came from the eastern head
quarters, and it is said the iin" to
Grays Harho- will be used jointly hy

to Grays Harbor IL said
to be pr lttically secured.
An official of the Union Pacific,
some monthe ago, stated that, when
it came time to build the Tacoma
Portland lines and the Harbor ex-
tension, work would be begun In
dozen different places at once and
rushed to completion. The Milwau-
kee, which is to use the Union Pa
cific lines into the Harbor, now an

will be furnished to Grays Harbor

insisting in having the twelve coun-
cilmen pass judgment. One member
of the council remarked to the writer
yesterday that he would have voted
for the scheme if Mr.. Hart had not
moved the opposite way, as he had
left it to the judgment of the park
commissioner.
From the earliest stages of this
scheme it has been fostered and dan
died by the World in a manner sug-
gesting the hired advocate, or the
E. z Mark being worked. In describ-
ing the defeat of the measure, the
alleged daily paper said the protest
was signed by 1S0 persons, mostly
residents of the Broadway hill dis
trict." This was deliberate mis-
statement, as will be seen by refer
ring to the names on that protest,
which is printed in this paper. And,
in the some issue this editor, who
imagines he is fulfilling function
in the newspaper world, works off a
column editorial illustrating the
benefits sure to accrue from indebted
ness, and bewailing the failure of
the park scheme in a manner SO pa
thetic as to suggest the suspicion
that it's "bit" was in danger. How
ever, like the hired advocate, the
World suggests in Saturdays paper,
that it may move for a new trial,
and intimates that the congested
residence districts Of North Aber-
deem, South Aberdeen and East Alb
erdeen will petition Mr.. Dabney to
reopen his negotiations, so there may
be an opportunity given to still Sc
cure this spooning ground. and Incl
dentally enhance the value of ad-
jaoent real estate, owned largely by
member of the city council and
one of the park board.

written by M. ]. Gordon, who in the
trial of the case represented that
company as its attorney.
They show further that Gordon's
decision was sent by Gordon to w. R.
Begg, of st. Paul, general solicitor
for the Great Northern, who wired
to Gordon that it was satisfactory,
after which Gordon sent it to Judge
Milo A. Root of the supreme court,
who procured it's filing as the opin-
ion of the court.
For two days the Root investiga-
ting committee of the state bar as
sociation has been exerting everf
effort in it's power to procure pos
session of these letters, kilograms
and other documents and members of
the committee expect that before an
other "a hours they will obtain
them.
Whether Judge Root received a
bribe for this astounding favor to
Attorney Gordon and the Great
Northern Railway company is a
question upon which members of the
committee are not yet prepared to
form an opinion, but the facts al
ready assembled by the committee
warrant it in making a most severe
criticism Of the conduct Of Judge
Root in its report to President Brid-
ges of the state bar association.
