ABERDEEN MEN
SUE FOR AN ACCOUNTING

SEATTLE, April SIN an appli-
cation made to the superior court for
a receiver for the Bella-Coola Devel-
opment company, organized in 1904
to manufacture wood pulp in opposi-
ton to the pulp trust, James NJ
Hackett and E. b. Shields make
charges against the business meth
DDS of John B. Hart, a prominent Sc
attic attorney. Allen E. Williams
and Thomas Morgan are made CODE
PENDANTS.
Hackett and Shields allege that
the Bella-Coola Development Com
pany obtained from the British gov
ernment a lease of $4,000 acres of
timber lands lying on the Bentic
Arm and Bella-Coola River, British
Columbia, for the establishment and
maintenance of pulp factory. 1t is
alleged that in 1905 the stockholders
became involved in quarrels and Hart
and Williams undertook to reorgan-
ize the corporation, after obtaining
options on the stock. The petitioners
say that John B. Hart was paid $15,-
900 by James M. Hackett, $500 by
E. B. Shields and $4,000 by Thomas
Morgan. The court is told that Nor
gan refuses to join in this action and
is therefore made party defendant.
Hackett and Shields claim that
Hart has represented to them that
all the moneys they put in have been
used in paying the debts of the COR
poration and in making surveys. They
declare that Hart has not delivered
to them any stock of the company or
any evidences of Indebtedness and
allege that Hart refuses to treat with
them for the purchase of a logging
outfit as agreed upon or to recognize
that they have any rights in the cor
poration.
1t is further set out that Hart
claims the company owes him $70,-
900 which is denied. The court is
asked to name a receiver and to order
the defendants to render an account
ing forthwith.

Stalding, and it was a case of hustle
from the opening 10 the closing of
the polls. County politics took a
hand in the Sixth, and we'll known

effect upon the fall campaign. Stald-

able political jockeying is predicted,
some of it to pay debts contracted
Tuesday, and some with a view to the
September primaries. Among the
rumored changes in the city admins
tratiOn is one to the effect that Po-
lice Judge Loomis is to be promoted
to the office of city attorney, not spe-
cially as recognition of good SER
vice-although his really excellent
administration of the position may
be given out as the reason---but to
make room for Judge Pearson in the
police court, for his yeoman service
for the republican nominees Tuesday.

THE CITY ELECTION
WAS The MOST QUIET In HISTORY
OF ABERDEEN.
Candidates for Council
men Win in Every Ward2 Except
the Sixth, Where MCDOugal Loses
by IL Votes. A Strenuous but
Orderly Election Day.
The Winners.

Treasurer, Roy c. Sargent.
Clerk, P. F. Clark.
COuncilmen-
First ward, r. A. Wiley.
Second ward, VIM. Ingram.
Third ward, John O'Hare.
Fourth ward, Ed. Dolan.
Fifth ward, G. M. Weatherwax
Sixth ward, Geo. Stalding.
A stranger in the city Tuesday
would scarcely have been aware that
a hOtly contested election was under
way. 1t is doubtful if more quiet
political contest ever occurred in Alb
erdeen. Aside from the rustling of
the candidates and their immediate
followers, general apathy prevailed,
but LILO votes being cast, out of a
a total registration of 1895. In
other words more than 25 per cent
of the registered voters failed to ex-
ercise their franchise. Allowing 5
per cent from natural causes, the
fact remains that fully one-fifth of
the voters did not take sufficient in
terest in the result to go to the polls
The effects upon the city adminis-
tration of the result can only be
guessed at. In some quarters it is
being studied as to the bearing it will
have on county politics, the game of
which cut no small figure in this elec-
tion. The anti-saloon forces are in
clined to jubilate over the election of
three councilmen of known saloon
proclivities, reasoning that to have
that element attempt to control the
city government would so crystalize
the anti sentiment as to give that
movement as great an impetus as
would five years of preaching.
In the First ward, a surprise came
in the vote of South Aberdeen, that
gave a majority for Wiley. That
part of the ward had been conceded
to Pressey by the friends of Wiley,
but the name of the ticket, "repub-
lican" was good to conjure with, es-
pecially among new voters not very
familiar with conditions.
In the Second, Irvine kept Ingram
guessing all day, and until the vote
was counted. But, it was republican
day, and the latter won out with a
majority of 80.
In the Third, Fourth and Fifth
wards, it was the same story. No
interest manifested aside from that
displayed by the candidates and their
henchmen. and the republican can
didates had things their own way.
The Sixth ward was the only one
in the city that displayed an activ-
Iity that looked like a real election.
The withdrawal of Pierre from the
citizens ticket, renewed the primary
contest between McDougall and

up again. Throughout the county
his name is mentioned in most un-
complimentary terms. Recently he
addressed meeting in this city, and
was greeted by a small attendance,
utterly without enthusiasm. Nc

dates for the gubernatOrial nOmina-

Hostile to the Last Degree.
Unless one has actually been on
the ground, it is impossible to dis
Germ, much less to fathom, the re-
sistless undercurrent of hostility Oc-
casioned by the adverse decision Of
the supreme court regarding county
division. The county division COM
mittee of the chamber of commerce
declares openly that it will move
heaven and earth to defeat the
judges responsible for the ruling, and
that it is willing to effect any COM
bination to bring about that result.
1t is related that before the decision
was announced pools were laid on the
result, that money was openly offered
on the streets that division would be
declared unconstitutional, and that
n O. ri "
awaiting a chance to ''sOak" division
lists; but the advocates of division
became wise to the situation; they
realized that the decision had been
clipped off, by somebody, and not a
great deal of money changed hands.
One bet of $1,000 was laid on the re-
suit, but was recalled. The further
fact that some of the most vigorous
opponents of division are non-resi-
dent owners of timber does not tend
to allay popular feeling in this end
of the county.
Last Rap" Will Settle It.
At one stage of the fight Aberdeen
played host to the entire Legislature.
The city subscribed a fund of $1O,-
900, chartered special train for the
solons at Olympia, gave them a clam
bake at the beach, brought them back
to this city for banquet which was
so extensive that it had to be spread
in the dining rooms Of the two lead
ing hotels-and in general showered
attention with the lavish hand char
acteristic Of western hospitality. No
visitors money was good anywhere
within the town. 1t chanced that a
jurist was scheduled for a toast, but
the proceedings were so long delayed
that before his name had been reach
ed the assembly at table was adjourn
ed in order to give the visitors a
chance to attend ball. Whereupon,
SO the story goes, the aforesaid jurist
waxed exceedingly wroth and is re-
ported to have said that he had been
slighted-and that If county division
should be successful in the legislature
the court would have the last rap at
the bill.
Thus county division is an issue.
Senator Ankeny and Senator Piles
are not involved in the fight. Wilson
is held responsible for the bill both
coming and going, and Wilson's man
Jones is sure to suffer. Mead has
visibly decreased his waning popu-
larity through his attitude, and those
judges of the supreme court who will
appear for reelection will be held to
