briefs and working on forthcomins
decisions.
Just the same the recess was
unusual, and was further due to
the local option bill.
On the court calendar there was
a case set for argument which the
entire bench desired presented
fully. 1t was a bonding case from
Spokane, August Ilse against the
Aetna Indemnity Co., to recover on
a bond given in connection with
Uses construction of the court
house at Wallace, Ilaho.
The case came here for argu-
ment about eight months ago, but
the judges then could not agree on
decision, SO asked that the case
be reargued.
Senator Will Graves is one of
the attorneys, and Will was pre-
siding at the senate session. so
the court took recess until the
senate got through work, when it
met again and listened to Graves.
Rarely will the court grant such
a courtesy to any attorney, but in
this case it was deemed good pol
icy to do so.

M'CALLuM HAS CURB FOR
GRATING BARTENDERS

PENDANT was drunk when he pass
ed the paper, that he had it cashed
in a saloon and spent the proceeds
over the bar.
Sayre's bill provides that no
check can be cashed by any saloon
keeper in any saloon. The penalty
runs up to a maximum fine of $500
and six months Imprisonment.
The last report of the peniten-
tiary shows 80 forgers sent to the
Walla Walla prison in the past two
years.
Think of the disgrace brought to
innocent relatives of these prison
ers. Just imagine a drink befud-
died man being urged by a barten-
der to sign a check so the drinker
could spend more money. Of
course, the bartender would not
knowingly take the chance of los
ing money by cashing a forged
check.
But the bartender can always
use the threat of prosecution if the
man does not make good the
amount of the check.
How many forged checks were

FRANCHISE NOT
NECESSARY
NEW RAILROAD GOING AHEAD
WITH WORK IN CERTAINTY
THAT CITY COUNCIL WILL
WAIT TILL MAPS ARE
READY.

Without waiting to go through
the formality of asking for and re-
ceiving a franchise, the Spokane,
Portland & Seattle company has
taken it for granted that the city
fathers will allow it to build the
line along the proposed route
across city streets in the western
part of the city.
The work of grading has been
under way for some time. The
company intends to ask for the
franchise as soon as it can COM
plete its maps, according to the
statement made by J. D. Porter,
one of the contractors who appear
ed before the board of public
works.
According to the plat of the pro-
posed route through the western
part of the city, the road enters
Queen Anne addition at block 10
and then runs north through blocks
D and A to Woodlands addition
and continuing north passes
through blocks ~ and and
thence northeasterly through
blocks Z, 16 and 5. Continuing
northeasterly the line runs through
blocks 81, Is, II and 4 in Terrace
Park addition and through a cor
ner of the block on which the
Whittier school is located. The
line passes beyond the city limits
running through blocks 81, 40, 45
and 33 in West Grove addition.
In running the road over this
territory it is necessary for the
company to secure a franchise to
cross the following streets and
avenues: Sixteenth, Fifteenth,
Fourteenth, Woodland boulevard,
Thirteenth, Twelfth, Eleventh,
Tenth, B, Ninth, c, Eighth, d,
Seventh, Beaver Holly, e, Fifth,
f, Fourth, G and H streets.
Many of these crossings are in
the middle of the block, while 9th
ers are at the intersection of two
streets. The right of way has all
been secured with the exception
of the right to cross the city prop
erty.

JUDGES WAITED
FOR GRAVES
Especial to The Press.)

OLYMPIA, Feb. 19.-Local OPP
ton blocked the Washington state
supreme court Wednesday.
The, court is so overworked that
two additional judges are asked for
to enable the bench to handle the
business, but the court adjourned
Wednesday afternoon, while the
big talkfest was going on in the
senate over the local option bill.
The adjournment was not, how
ever, to give the judges a chance
to hear the arguments of the cham
pions of the vets and drys.
In fact, during the hours of re-
cess, the members of the court
went into the little cubby holes,
which are flattered by being known
as private chambers, and there
busted themselves porting over

AMEND CONSTITUTION

SALEM, Ore, Feb. 1.-THE SEN
ate has passed two amendments
to the constitution providing for
segregation of state and county
taxes and classifying property so
as to apply different rates of taxa
ton to different classes. The
amendments were asked for by the
state grange and will go to a vote
of the people in 1910.
The house passed a senate bill
requiring bank title corporations
to deposit 100000 bond to do
business in Oregon.

VIRGINIA CITY, New, August 25
The Comstock committee of the Am

Goldfeld in September, held a meet
ing last evening, Chairman Thomas
Mccormick presiding.
On motion of Mr.. Turney, W. g.
Douglas was appointed . committee of
one to obtain specimens of ore sent to
the st. Louis fair, and this will form
the nucleus of our display, which will
consist of ores taken from every mine
in the district.
A large map of the underground
workings, showing shafts, tunnels
and slopes will form the background
of our exhibit, and data showing the
phenomenal production of bullion,
the miles and miles of underground
drifts and shafts will show the
members of the congress that the
Comstock is still going some.
A committee was also appointed
to interview the different mining
companies on the lode and have
them subscribe funds to defray the
necessary expenses towards getting
up this display. The chairman was
authorized to appoint a committee to

RECORD BREAKING CARLOAD
FROM MCCORMACK LEASE

The richest car of ore ever sent out
of Lucky Boy camp has just been
shipped from the Mccormack or Brok-
en- Hills company lease, returns from
which show 269 ounces silver per ton
and 20 per cent. lead. This makes a to-
tai value of 1857 per ton. The ore came
from the workings west of the shaft,
and is but a fair sample Of the ore
that is now being produced from that
territory. Drifts on all of the levels
are being pushed ahead toward the
west end of the lease, with new ore
reserves constantly being opened. A
good production is also being made east
of the shaft.
Sinking will be resumed in the shaft
Immediately, and it will be sent dowa
from the 215 to the 500level in rapid
time. The bottom of the shaft is in
a good grade of ore, and great results
are anticipated from the work at in
creased depth.
Returns have also been received al
! the Mccormack office in Goldield from
q carload of ore from the Merrimac
Comstock property of the Broken Hill,
company near Nevada City, which RAJ

SOTC OF Skylatk
The ~heliocopter is a sort of skylark
among airships. Not rnat it sings sweet
mathis o 'er mountain and lea, but that,
blithesome and cumberless, it rises
from its nest or moorings straight up
in the air, instead of having to leap
for life off a derrick, like the Wright
machine, or having slowly to rise on a
gradual climb from its bed, as do
dirigible balloons.
The characteristic of DR.. Hininker' IS
machine is the lifting arrangement. 1t
consists of two fans, or horizontal pro-
pellers, placed in open drums or shafts.
one directly behind the prov, the other
zeal the stern. These propellers are re-
volved at a great speed by the engines
of the machine. The force of their re-
volutions lefts the machine upward to
the desired height.
Model Nearly Completed
At present nearly completed in DR..
Hiniker's workshop is the large model
of his airship. The model is Fl feet
long, z feet wide, or beam, and . feet
4 inches deep. The bow comes to a
point, but the greatest thickness and
depth is located zeal the PROV. From
that point the body of the machine tap
ers off toward the tail, as a whales
architecture is arranged. That shape
lessons the resistance of the air. The
frame is of spruce wood, made rigid
with piano wire, to be covered with
sheet magnolium. At present the fans
are revolved by electric power, convey
ed to the machine by a chain. Yester-
day afternoon DR.. Thinker started his
dynamo, and with about n horse
power revolved the fans and lifted the
machine, which weighed about 81
pounds, off the bench and into the air
In the perfected machine the power viii
be gasoline, and the engine, of course
will be located in the car.
DIR. Thinker and w. s. Arnold worked
up the plans for the new machine, but
the patent rights will be in the nam
of DIR. Thinker.

Airship That Will Fly

That is what may after q while greet the ears Of

has granted patents to J. B. Froberg Of this city, who
has developed the final details Of a dirigible balloon

plans Of which will In . few days be speeding to the

Of hope, are embodied in the plans Of Mr.. Froberg.
Some Of his ideas, worked out long ago, are embodied
in the Zeppelin and other European airships. And un-
less some other American inventors hurry J. B. Fro
