Promoters TO
Meet SATURDAY

At a meeting of the executive com
mittee of the Columbia & Walla Walla
Traction company neld Saturday after
noon in the office of Dr. n G. Blalock.
it was decided that q meeting OF the
various branches of the Farmers I'M
ion from Waitsburg, Dayton, Prescott
and Walla Walla be held next Saturday
morning at 10 O'clock, for the purpose
of giving approval to the organization
to be perfected later for the construc-
ton of the farmers trolley line from
Dayton to Wallula. The meeting will
be held in the old Orpheum theatre
building.

ed in the construction of the line, has
been called for 2:3O o'clock on the
same day, when the old company will
turn over to the new promoters all
franchises for right f-Way, maps, sur
veys, profiles and other data pertain
ing to the line. 1t is also probable that
the official name of the company will
be decided at the mass meeting, and
The Farmers Traction company" has
been suggested. 1t is desired that a
name as brief as possible be selected,
yet one that will give the real name
of the operators of the line.
1t is the intention of everyone in
teIested that the work shall be pushed
as rapidly as is consistent with ecOno-
my and successful operation. and no
time is to be wasted. The officers and
the executive committee will meet from
time to time during the week, so that
all details for the transferring of pow
er to the new promoters may be eff
fected at the meetings to be held next
Saturday.

Judge Robinson's Letter.
Judge j. W. Robinson of Olympia

Justice Hadley, advocating the trans

to the legislature and closing with the
following address:
Judge odley, you are soon to re
tire from the honorable position which
YOU now hold, and by the middle of
January next go back to the people

and / submit to You that you cannot
serve your state better than to recon-
mend with all your power an investf-
CATION by the Legislature of all of these
rumors of corruption and scandal in
connection with the supreme court, and
thus make it possible that the guilty
shall be brought to justice and that
the innocent shall be known of all men.
It is in your power to do this. For
any failure in the investigation you
have started you will be held RESPONSE

investigation be had and that some
thing be done to restore confidence IN

Washington Under the present condl-
ton of the public mind not single
decision can go forth from that court

SAYS BENCH MUST
BE CLEARED BEFORE
HE TAKES A SEAT

i SEATTLE, Nov. 16.-Judge >. j.
Chadwick, justice-elect of the supreme
court, is quoted by K. G. Beaton,
newspaper writer, as declaring that he
would not occupy a position on the
supreme bench so long as any member
OF the bench was suspected of dis
honorable conduct or upon whose
name the slightest suspicion had been
cast.
The following is from Mr. Beaton's
interview:
It is a very delicate matter that
YOU ask me to discuss said the judge,
1 have, of course, heard the various
rumOrS that have been in circula ton
and feel deeply the reflection that has
been cast upon the supreme court, even
though it should be determined that
the charges are false
1t has been reported in Seattle,
judge, that you have stated that you
will not take your seat upon the su-
preme bench until all of these matters
have been satisfactorily explained. Is
that true?
Court Must Be Cleared.
Il do not know that / have made
such a statement but I do so now.
Under no circumstances would | occu-
py position upon the supreme bench

RAISING position the judge began, in

sire is, of course, to See these various
matters thoroughly investigated. and
to that end as a member elect of the
state supreme bench, l desire to do all

When suggested TO Judge Chad
wick that a committee of the state
bar association could not hope to com
plete a thorough investigation of the
matter under discussion, the judge
said:
In whatever way. or by whom this
investigation is to be conducted. it
must be absolutely thorough and con-
vincing If a legislative investigation
is necessary in order to arrive at the
truth, then the matter should be taken

Detective Burns is preparing to stir
up hornets nest by filing charges
against Guards Kelley and Attridge.
who failed to watch closely the assas-
sin Haas and prevent his suicide. Sat
urday night and to learn why Burns
was not permitted to see Haas.
Burns intimated the outcome will be
charges against Chief of Police Biggey,
who will be asked why he gave state
ments declaring the attempt to assas-
sinate Heney was not the result Of a
conspiracy.
Burns thinks Mrs. Haas passed the
revolver with which Haas killed him
self. Biggey insists that Haas carried
the gun when he entered the Jail and
says Captain Duke failed to closely
search the assassin. Duke says that
the statement is untrue.
From what I can learn,r says Burns
Il am satisfied Mrs. Haas passed the
weapon to her husband. In view OF the
fact that he killed himself under a
guard of men detailed to watch his
every movement, after I was denied ad-
mittance by the same men who later
~ contradictory to their reports, the
case assumes a bad phase, which de-
mands a sweeping investigation. We
obtained from Haas a confession after
the police reported him crazy. That
would end the, case if the wishes of the
police department were carried out"
Haas Killed Himself.
Morris Haas, who attempted Friday
afternoon to assasslnate Francis J. He
ney, committed suicide in his cell in
the county Jail Saturday night by
shooting himself in the head with a
small Derringer revolver.
The suicide was committed while
the guards detailed to prevent such a
move stood within three feet of him.
1t is claimed by Chief Of Police Big
gey that Haas took the pistol into the
Jail, concealed in one OF his shoes. This
is denied by other officials, who think
it was given to him by his wife, who
called to see him Saturday.
When he retired. Haas refused to
take off his shoes. He covered himself
with blankets and then fred the shot
which ended his life.

AS NATIONAL PARK
MANY PEOPLE WANT MAMMOTH
CAVE MAINTAINED.
Petition to Congress is Being Pre-
pared and Much Interest is Mani
tested i'm the Movement.

A number of patriotic Kentuckans
according to a press dispatch from
Horse Cave. are circulating an i'm.
mense petition asking congress tC
turn the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky
into a national pleasure ground fol-
the people of the United States
Under the terms OF the will OF the
late George Croghan, who owned the
Mammoth Cave, 1t was left to his
eleven nephews and nieces for hfe
with instructions that after death the
cave is 20 be sold at public auction
to the highest bidder. Only few
aged men and women of the original
eleven remain alive. So, in the nat
ural curse of human events the Nam
moth Cave viii soon pass into other
hands, and, as II is a practical mo-
nopoly. the people of Kentucky are
averse to seeing 1t controlled for
profit by private corporation.
a petition to congress is therefore
being prepared. asking that steps be
taken in the direction of acquiring
Mammoth Cave and the land above II
for national park free to all the
American people and their guests
from foreign shores.
The committee in charge OF the
petition has sent broadcast a request
that everyone favoring the project
send a postal card bearing his name
and address to Burns w. Beall,
Horse Cave, Ky. The names thus
received will be added to the original
petition, and all the cards will ac-
company 1t to Washington when the
bill is introduced in the house. II is
not expected that there will be any
serious opposition to the plan, and
Mammoth Cave will no doubt soon
regain its old prestige as one OF the
seven wonders of the modern world.
