NONSuIT THE
N0NSUIT

Members of the Spokane bar
were much pleased today with the
recommendation of Governor
Mead in his message, as to needed
improvement in the matter of col
lecting damages from railroad and
other corporations.
Lawyers say that the exercise
of the nonsuit has grown to such
an extent in the courts of Spokane
county In late years that to get a
judgment against railroad an at
torney must have a case strong
enough to almost make the rail-
road voluntarily confess its liza
bility. -
No blame Is attached to the
judges personally, who are consiu-
cred merely the interpreters of
statute drawn in favor of the rail-
roads and other large corporations.
The nonsuit has become so gener-
al that honest attorneys sometimes
have scruples about taking legiti-
mate damage suits against the rail-
roads for fear of being nonsuited
and made to appear as if they were
trying to gouge the railroad in
some trumped-up case.
1t is said that some Of the cor
poration representatives In the
present legislature, seeing the
handwriting on the wall, have con-
scented to modification of the ex-
listing statutes as to damage suits
that deserving claimants can get
speedier justice.

WORKINGMAN OR
FORCER, WHICH?

w. M. Sloan, who claims to be
a machinist, was placed on trial
today before a jury in Judge Hin
kle's court for passing a forged
check for $50 on the Washington
bar. The check was signed w. K
Watson and made payable to John
Miller at the Traders National
bank.
Among the exhibits of the
state, found on the person of
Sloan, were three watches, two
books of blank checks, one on the
Traders bank and the other on
the Spokane & Eastern. and some
pass keys.
The police and prosecutors
Office think they have a bad man
in Sloan. whom they assert that
while clad as workingman is a
smooth check forger and pick
pocket.
Sloan on the stand denied that
he had passed the check, and in
sisted that he was an honest, hard
working machinist who had come
to Spokane for a short visit while
out of work. He said he had
money, and that it had been his
custom In the past to come to Spo-
kane and make deposits in the
local banks and check therefrom.
This explained, he said, the reason
why he had the two check books
on his person.

That there is such an organization

to get together for counter or

take the matter seriously, being
