JUDGE GORDON ARRESTED

The arrest of former Supreme
Court Justice NJ. J. Gordon, on
charge Of embezzling funds of the
Great Northern while acting as its
Western counsel, caused something
of a stir among the members of the
King County bar this week. 1t was
in way unexpected; some Of Cor
don's friends had intimated that
the Great Northern would not dare
to cause his arrest. The fact that
he was taken into custody at the in
stance of the company certainly did
not bear out that condition. 1t has
never been believed here that the
Great Northern company was in any
way mixed up with the Carbon
Root scandal, The action of the
company in causing Gordon's ar
rest will probably mean that there
will be no investigation on the part
of the legislature, even if one was
contemplated, which seems doubt

FRUIT GROWERS PLAN

URGE RANCHERS TO join
COOPERATIVE PLAN FINANCIALLY
SUCCESSFUL IN OLDER
DISTRICTS

At stockholders meeting of the
Fruit Growers Association held
last Tuesday, it was voted that the
trustees be authorized to hire man
ager by the year, on a salary suiiic-
lent to warrant the getting of the
best possible man for the place.
To further show the good faith of
the stockholders in the future of
the Association and of the valley it
was voted that all members should
take additional stock up to the linn
it allowed by the charter or as near
that as possible and that all ranch
crs in the valley be invited to join.
In pursuance of this motion Pres.
Dean is to appoint a committee
large enough to cover the whole val
ley and personally solicit every quail
flied person.
This idea successfully carried out
will put the Association on a pay
ing basis and be very profitable to
the stockholders. It is the inten-
ton to sell all the produce of the
members and to furnish to thenl
all their feed, seed and supplies nt
such prices aswill nay operating ex-
penses and good returns to the
shareholders.
The financial and moral support
Of every member to this scheme
will make it one of the biggest sue
cesses imaginable, but it must not
be forgotten that the members
themselves that will derive the ben
eft.
1t should be apparent to each
member of the Association that this
work as outlined above is for his
own interest and for the good of the
valley in which he owns property,
and for only such.
1t has been shown by unions and
associations in many localities that
the cooperative plan is the only
one whereby the results are uni
formly successful from a financial
standpoint and it is these older
communities that must be looked
to for example and guidance, 1t
is the price of the product that
makes the value of the land and
the prices of the product can be
greatly bettered by a live associa-
citation. SECRETARY.

WOMEN WANT AMENDMENT

Not asking the legislature to give
them the right to vote, but only that
the questiod of woman suffrage be
submitted to the people, fifty prom
inent women of the state are gath
cred at Olympia and have consti-
tuted a 'Women's Lobby" which
by earnest end persistent work is
gradually gaining friends for the
constitutional amendment which
the women desire. Once the amend
ment passes the legislature it must
be submitted to popular vote at the
next general election, and the wo-
men are confident in their ability
to gain the long sought for ballot.
if the question is left to the people
of the state. There is some inter
esting history connected with the
woman suffrage movement in this
state.
Twice in the territorial days the
voters granted to women the right
to vote in Washington, but on both
occasions the supreme court found
flaws in the law. Suffrage was first
granted to women in 1888, and they
enjoyed the privilege until 1887,
when test case was made thru the
efforts of a set of Spokane polite
ians, who were successful in the su-
preme court of the territory. In
the following year suffrage was
again voted to the women. The
court, however, decided that ter
ritory could not, under any condi-
tions, grant the women suffrage.
