LINOTYPE OPERATOR REFUSES
TO ENTER WEDDING WITH A
NON-UNION CERTIFICATE FIG.
URING IN THE DEAL.
(By, Associated Press. J

Hutchinson, Kan, May 27.-True
to the principles of unionism, even
at the risk of losing a chance to be
a husband, Coleman c. Clinton is
the cynosure of all eyes her today
because of his refusal to accept a
marriage license that did not bear
the union label. Clinton is now mar
ried all right, but he did not let the
ceremony proceed until he was cer-
tain that it was going to be a union
wedding.
In other words he had induced the
authorities to find a certificate that
showed it had been turned out by
union printers Clinton's home is in
Portland, Ore, and he is a linotype
operator. Recently he came to
Hutchinson to wed Miss Ethel John
son. Probate Judge Jordan, who had
just received fresh lot of new mar
riage certificates, handed one of them
to Clinton when the latter called for
the necessary paper.
The Portland man examined it
closely and tossed it back.
mo union label on that declared
Clinton Indignantly. mo wedding
bells for me with a non-union mar
riage certificate figuring in the deal. ="
All hands in the courthouse got
busy and finally an old certificate
with the printers union label on it
was found. So the marriage cere-
mony was performed yesterday, al
though for a while it appeared as If
it would be delayed.

HAMILTON MAY
HAVE LO0PHOLE
NEW JURY LAW MAY GIVE MANY
OPPORTUNITIES FOR ESCAPE
is OPINION OF MANY STATE
LAWYERS.

Olympia, May 27.-That there is
a possibility that former Adjutant
General Ortis Hamilton and a num-
ber of others charged with crime to
be tried in the near future after the
new jury law goes into force on the
10th of June next have a technical
loophole through which they may es-
cape to freedom whether they be
guilty or innocent is the opinion of
a number of prominent attorneys Of
this city and state. Therefore the
question of the possible effect OF the
Jury system on the persons charged
with crime alleged to have been COM
mitted prior to the passage of the
law that goes into effect next month
is an especially interesting question.
The new law, which will control
the empanelling of juries after June
10, provides that the Judge of the SUI
perior court shall divide the county
in which his court is held into at
least three jury districts and not
more than six jury districts, and
that on the first day of July of each
year the clerk of the court shall make
out the jury list for the several dis
tricts in his county. This provision
makes from June 10 to July a time
when there will be no way Of secur-
ing a jury, the new law having super
ceded the old one and yet July 1, not
having arrived there will be no one
authorized to empanel jury.
In this county for instance, it IL
cited the regular jury is called for
June s, and If it should happen that
there are not II men on the panel
who are eligible to try the Hamilton
charge after June 10, there would be
no other way to draw another venire,
and the case would probably either
be dismissed or set over until July.
II is believed 1t will be difficult to
secure a jury in the Hamilton case,
owing to the extensive publicity given
the case and the general forming of
opinions as to guilt or innocence.
If such a case be set over until July
some say that a constitutional tech
nicality of an expost facto law can
be brought up and inasmuch as the
new jury law was passed after the
crimes were alleged to have been
committed they could not be tried
under the new system. And while 1t
is not generally thought among the
attorneys of this city that the su-
preme court of the United States
would construe the law to remove
all criminal prosecution for crimes

Sprinkler at Work Last Night.

Despite the heavy rainfall last night
the city sprinkler was at work and
the streets were well soaked by the
rain and the sprinkler wagon. A
number of the citizens commented
upon the fact of the sprinkler wagon
being out last night when the streets
had been without water for weeks.
The driver was well soaked from the
heavy rain. One of the kickers OF
the city this morning stated that he
has understood that the principal rea-
son fo rthe curtailing of the spring
ling wagons service was that one of
the white mules that was being used
on the wagon refuses to face the Sc
yer dust storms which had been had
during the past two weeks.

formed pleasing contrasts to the rows
of trees which plainly indicated the
