GAME WARDEN LOSES
new SUIT TO Be FILED

Guthrie, Sept. s.-District Judge A.
H. Huston yesterday upheld Attorney
General West In his contention that
the state game warden could not draw
warrants on the game protection fund
for payment of his assistants or ex.
penses by refusing peremptory writ
Of mandamus asked by Miss Ray v.
Campbell against State Treasurer Jim
Menefee to compel him to honor the
warrants. Miss Campbell is the ste
nographer of J. S. Askew, the game
and the warrant in contest was
for Miss Campbelps salary. Judge
Huston holds in substance that the
constitution requires a specific appro-
priation before money can be drawn
from the state treasury.
The case probably will be appealed.
and should IL be lost in the supreme
court, the state proDably will be with
out enforcement of its game laws un-
til the next legislature meets.

A GOOD CAUSE.

w. Il. Mcclure, assistant superin-
tendent for eastern Washington of the
Washington Children's Home society,
spent Saturday, Sunday and Monday in
Oroville. While here Mr.. Mcclure
preached in the M. Z. church Sunday
morning, and made brief address ex-
planning the object of the society and
the work accomplished, during the
Presbyterian services in the evening
He also made collections while here to
aid the society in the work it is carry
ing on. He had with him bright
little lad, who was to be placed in the
home Of John bugsll, near Tonasket
There is not a more worthy charitable
institution IN the state than this Child
re.1'S Home society. The aim is to
CARE Tor orphan children of tender years
left by the death Of parents unprovided
for aud to the not too tender merces
of the world. The society provides a
place " refuge and protection for the
child, and subsequently home in some
respectable and responsible family,
where the child can enjoy the advan-
tages and blessings of home. The
object is a most Iaudable one, and peo-
pie of mean could not contribute to a
better cause. The society has cared
for hundreds of friendless and helpless
children in this state, and found COM
Portable homes for them among kindly
and cha ritable people, thus saving them
from life of hardship, misery and
possibly crime. The society should
never be permitted to lag in its efforts
for want OF means to carry on the good
work

1T TAX ES THE CASH.

The Seattle fair may prove to be an
advantage to the state in the incre-
ment of future benefits, but it is not
an unmixed blessing, and the common
wealth at large is paying heavy toll
Just now to make the exposition sue
cess. At the present time Seattle it.
self is the only place deriving benefit
from the great attraction. Times and
business are quiet in every smaller
community in the state, progress is
haulting and ready money scarce. The
chief reason for this is the tremendous
amount of ready cash that has been
taken out of local circulation, dumped
into the Golfers of transportation COM
panies and spent seeing the sights in
Seattle. Not one dollar spent for this
purpose finds its way back into the
community from which it is taken. 1t
is a constant, and in the aggregate, an
enormous drain of the medium of cir
culation, and very naturally the towns
that make these contributions feel the
influence in commercial and industrial
circles. Every city, town aud hamlet
in the state has patronized the fair
most generously, and while the stream
of coin flows into the big city, the home
supply is just so much curtailed, limit
ing the volume of business transacted
to correspond with the unnatural
shrinkage of ready cash. 1t will take
time to recover from this tax up0u
local resources, and the outlook for Il
prosperous winter is not the brightest

flrst that he has made since he en-
tered President Taft's cabinet, the
United Press today is able to out
lire some OF the more important
features, dealing with the disposition
OF water power sites and coal lands.
Present indications are that the coL-
seryation policy will be one of the
big problems to come up before con-
grees.
In his report Ballinger will en-
.Dhasise the fact that his Withdrawals
of water power sites was only tenn

He will call attention to the desIr-
ability OF preventing a monopoly Of
these sites, but will pass up to con-
gress all further responsibility,

the consolidation of several claims
to permit their development by cor
porations, which are excluded under
the present system of laws.
Conservation by law, and not by
executive action, is to be the key
note Of his report.
II can be stated on good authority
that President Taft will support
Secretary Ballinger's attitude. y
There are bills already on the con-
graBsional calendar calling for a com
pIete revocation OF all Withdrawals
OF public lands. Notable among
these Ia one introduced by Congress-
man Sylvester Smith, OF California,
prohibiting Withdrawals by an ex-
ecutive without legislative sanction.
Another by Senator Guggenhsim, Of
Colorado, pfpyIdes for granting out
right the right OF way for power
