THE GREATEST NIGHT FOR
SP0KANE'S BRIGHT NEWS|ES
DEMAND FOR
CHRISTMAS TREES

Increased demand for fir trees
for Christmas use has led the park
commission to station an officer
among the small evergreens on the
recently acquired park lands along
the Spokane river in the northwest
part of the city. The park officials
would not seriously object to the
cutting down of single tree, but
when four or five trees are cut off
before one is found to suit the
taste. then it becomes wanton de-
struction of the trees. and 1t is
this that the board is trying to
head off.
In past years some OF the small
shrubbery on outlying lands of the
park board have suffered from van
daiism at the holiday season.

The state won the first skirn,ish
in the superior court struggle with

Webster overruled the demurrer to
the c. L. FiIigno conspiracy COM
plant this morning, UNFOLDING the
prosecutor in every Instance.
The case will be fought out In
the local courts and an appeal
taken to the supreme court in the
event that the ]. w. w. leader

In an unwritten decision which
required an hour and half to ex-
press, Judge Webster sustained
Prosecutor Pugh in every instance
and holding faulty each contention
Of Fred H. Moore, attorney for the
defendant.
Judge Webster held Moore's con-
tentiOn that 1t is not crime to con-
spire to violate a city ordinance to
be invalid, quoting laws on the
Washingto Institutes which make it
ia misdemeanor to break any NUM-
| cpal law and punishable by the
state; also the definition of crime,
| which is an act forbidden by law
and punishable by death, imprison-
ment or fine.
!, Judge Webster admitted that he
considers the religious clause i'll
the last anti-street speaking ordi-
1 nance invalid, but holds that this
would bring the first ordinance
into force. which is identical with
the last one with the exception Of
the religious clause.
The court declared that the con.
spiracy to violate the ordinance, or
| the violation of the ordinance, was
"a crime, irrespective of whether or
| no the ordinance was valid. The
police were enforcing an ordinance
passed by the law making body of
the municipality and are not judges
of the constitutionality of the or
dinance which they were instructed
to enforce.

HOW LOAN OF $45 GREW
TO $295.

An example of the ravenous man.
ner in which loan sharks go after
their victims, when once within
their power, is shown in an alb
stract Of title just examined by, a
Spokane attorney.
The victim had borrowed $45 and
given his note at 20 per cent a
month interest. The interest grew
more rapidly than the mans ability
to pay, and after a period the prin-
cipal and interest had grown to
1926.
The loan shark then brought suit
on the note and recovered judg-
ment and caused a lot belonging to
the victim to be sold in execution
Of the debt. The whole transaction,
which occurred a few years ago, is
written into the abstract and
stands as a monument to the bale

GREGG. IS IN
MORE LEGAL
TROUBLE
CHARGE OF EMBEZZLINC
$500 IS ADDED

A charge Of embezz!ing $500 has
been added to the forgery charge
resting against Alex n. Gregg,
prominent criminal attorney and
former legislator. Information was
filed against him this morning by
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney
Don F. kizer. Gregg will be re-
quested to furnish an additional
$500 bond to keep his liberty. Both
the forgery and embezzIement
charges will come up for a hearing
before Justice Hyde next week.
Although Gregg is charged with
embezzling $500, this is only one
of four aggregating $14S6, this sum
representing so called bond
money" put up by Mrs. Margaret
NJ. Brickell in Grant county, Ore
gon, court in a suit instituted to
quiet title to 40 acres of timber
land left her by her husband.
According to the story told AS
sistant Prosecutor Kizer, Mrs.
Brickell was left four 40-acre pieces
of timber land by her late husband,
the property being decided to her
prior to his demise. One of the
forties was improperly described in
the deed. and the woman went to
Attorney Gregg about it,
Gregg informed her that suit
to quiet the title was necessary,
and that a $500 bond would be re-
Quired by the Oregon court. On
August 30, two months from the
date Of the first payment, Gregg
secured a check for 1876 as addi-
tlonal bond money, and on Septem-
Der Z $500 went towards the same
fund. A total demand of $500 was
made. but $l4S6 was all the widow
could raise, and Gregg promised
to put up the remainder himself.

CLEMENT
WAS SHORT
Reason for Removal-Made
Up Sums-Says Was
Oversight.

One of the first matters to be
taken up by Mayor Pratt will be
the removal by Acting Mayor Lam
bert of the license inspector, ID. c..
Clement, appointed by Mayor Pratt
last spring. The information
leaked out today that the reason
for the summary action by the act
Ing mayor was that Clement was
short in his accounts. One retail
meat dealer was produced before
the acting mayor who had paid
License Inspector Clement $50,
which had not been accounted for.
In another place SIS item was
located, it is charged. and in an
other an item of So. These items
have been made good by Clement,
WHO charges the failure to turn
over the money to an oversight.
License Inspector Clement was
prominent in the last democratic
city campaign He was the can
didate for county clerk on the dem
ocratic county ticket last fall and
Is a brother in law of Judge Turner.
Prior to going into the city's en-
ploy Mr.. Clement had been secre-
tary of the Sullivan Group Mining
company.
Mr.. Clement lays the blame for
his troubles to Market Master
Happe, whom he charges with hay
ing played detective in trailing him
because of personal feeling. Mr..
Happe denies any personal feeling
in the matter, and says that he
was asked to quietly look into the
case by the acting mayor, with
whom charges had ben filed by a
citizen. After he had secured the
facts and produced some or the
witnesses before Acting Mayor
Lambert action was then taken.
