NO SUNDAY SHOWS.
All Theatres in Washington Must
Close on the Sabbath.

OLYMPIA, July 18.-Final definite
action was taken by the supreme
court yesterday in the matter Of the
Sunday closing of theaters when
a motion was denied for a rehearing
of the habeas corpus case of Frank II.
Donnellan of Seattle. In the Herald
case, from Tacoma, months ago, the
supreme court sustained the validity
of the law prohibiting theatrical en-
tertainments on Sunday. Theatre
owners all over the state became in
terested at once and the discovery
was made that the original law which
was passed in territorial days had
exempted Snohomish county from its
provisions, which it was contended
made the act special law prohibited
by the constitution. A test case was,
therefore, made by the arrest Of Don
nellan, Seattle theatre manager, and
the institution Of habeas corpus pro
ceedings on his behlf. The supremea
Court held that the law, when copied
into the code, omitted the Snohomish
exception and on its adoption became
a new and valid act AS final move
the theatre people then asked a re-
hearing, which the supreme court has
now denied.

HOW A MODERN TOWN
DOES THINGS
HOOD RIVER AND HER DEAL
WITH THE PACIFIC STATES
TELEPHONE COMPANY AND
ITS CONSEQUENCES.

In conversation with an Astoria
citizen just returned from a visit to
Hood River, yesterday it is learned
that that snug little city has had her
differences with the Pacific States
Telephone Company, and along the
identical lines now disturbing the peo-
pie OF Astoria.
For years the Hood Riverians CON
tended against a poor service from a
decrepit system and when their pa-
tience was exhausted, simply cut out
the Pacific States instruments from
the last house and Office in the COM
munity, and instantly and loyalty
banded themselves into home or
ganization, bought, and installed, a
new and modern equipment, hired
their own operatives, and this con-
Germ is still doing the telephone
business of Hood River, and giving
genuine satisfaction, while the Pacific
States Company is glad to remain
there and do the "long-distance" bus
mess for the place.
This is the style and stamp of local
loyalty that accomplishes things, and
this is the spirit that must assert itself
at the next sessions Of the Common
Council and chambeA of Commerce
Nothing less will do, OF winl.
