Prosecuting Attorney Dses Not Be-
Iie~e That TechnieaItiss VIII
Go i'm the Evasion of the
Criminal Code.

In response to the question as to the
question as to the meaning and intent
Of that portion of Section 243 of the
new criminal code which reads: ANY
person who shall obstruct the view OF
the inside thereof from the outside by
means of any screens, share or other
devise Prosecuting Attorney Ever
EFT J. Smith said this afternoon:
"It is difficult, of course, to formu-
late general rule that would apply to
any given state of facts. Each violation
of this statute presents a mixed ques-
ton of law and fact and must be de-
termined from the circumstances or
the particular case.
"While it is true, as has beear in
timated to me, that general words IN
a statute, following particular words,
take their meaning from such partic-
ular words, but. technical rules of STAT
utory. construction ought not to be in
voked to frustrate Legislative intent.
The intent Of the legislature, and the
object to be attained. ere fundamen-
tai inquiries in judicial construction
"The SEXTON above referred to pro-
vides for the unobstructed view Of the
interior of saloons and provides that
screens or shades are not permissible.
1t further adds, that no other devise
shall be used to obstruct the view of
the interior The legislative intent
was undoubtedly to secure an open and
unobstructed view of the inferior Of
saloons Instead of enumerating the
many devices that might be employed
to obstruct the view, the general ex-
preston "or other devise" was used,
and should be considered as compre-
hensivd designation, prohibiting the
use of anything which would obstruct
the view of the interior.
1.-The word other when following an
enumeration of particular things has
| been held to be unrestrictedly compre-
hensive, embracing every other sort of
kind whether similar to the classes
enumerated or not, and / am Of the
opinion that the use of any obstruction
| whatsoever to obstruct the view of the
interior of a saloon is illegal under
Section 243.

BEST EXHIBIT
D|SP[AYEDBY
THIS COUNTY
E. s. Fsaacs Says That Walla
Walla Will Surely
Get Returns.
ATTRACTS NOTICE
OF EVERY VISITOR
Eastern People Are on the
Ground Early at Big
Exposition.

E, g. Isaacs. who returned yester
day from three -dacsS visit fs Seat
tie brings back glowing accounts of
the A-Y.-P exposition and is unstiHt-
ed in his praise of Walla walla coun-
tvs exhibit which he says will easily
hold it's own with any display at the
big fair.
"Walla Walla county certainly has
it's moneys worth and before the ex-
position closes will have received more
than value> received for the money and
time required in collecting and in
stalling the exhibit. Said Mr.. Isaacs
to a Statesman reporter this after
noon,
1.-THE exhibit is centrally located in
the Agricultural building and is so
tastefully arranged and it's specimens
of fruit and vegetables so admirably
displayed as to attract the attention
of every visitor I saw nothing ia
the California building where many
thousand of dollars has been expended
IN the exploitation of the, Golden states
resources that can make Walla Walla
suffer by comparison. Even the mag
nificent displays of preserved fruits
and flowers has us beaten in quantity
only Other county exhibits simply
can't touch us, that's all.
81 thought possibly that my preju-
dice gave Walla Walla's exhibit a
splendor it did not possess, so 1 took
especial pains to swatch strangers.
They invariably stopped under Walla
Walia's sign and seem interested in
everything on display there. Charles
O'Neil and William Ritz who are in
charge were kept busy explaining just
how it is done in Walla Walla. One
jar of huge yellow danvcr onions con-
spicuously placed in the Walla Walla
booth catches everybody's eye, and
their admiration is turned to almost
incredulity when they are told that

THE RETURN OF THE FLEET.

A fitting ceremony to-day will mark the close OF
an underta aking in which every patrlouc Aher'-
can has felt the keefest interest, and the con
summation OF which justifes national pride
No such array of peacemakers as that WHICH
Admiral Sperry commands has ever utilized 'he
whole world for a practice ground In the eA-
ecution of this design distance has been traT-
ersed nearly twice as great as the c1rcuhier-
ence Of the globe The splendid company of war
vessels which started from Hampton ROADS
more than fourteen months ago will now pass
in review before the commander in ch1ef OF the
military forces Of the country, who not OH!
planned the colossal experiment but has done an
incalculabIe amount of work to bring the Umted
states navy up 10 its present degree OF efr-
cheney.
As was pointed out a few days ago by Ad-
miraI Sperry while he at Gibraltar the
cruise just ended has accomplished wonderful
results When his ships departed from the
mouth of the Chesa peake they were mere ag-
gregation. They have now been welded INTO
fleet They have gone through manPuVres
which partly from smallness of numbers ana
partly from insufficient drill, had never before
been possible. The evOlutions of division
squadron and feet on which success III Datue
is so largely dependent, have been executed with
unprecedented Quickness and precision New
records in gunnery have been made in Magda-
lena Bay and at Manila. and new standards have
been established in fuel economy. Although
some of the harbOrs visited were particularly
difficult 10 enter and leave. not vessel has been
injured and the damage wrought by storms has
been easily repaired by the mechanics OF the
fleet itself In these achievements, some or
which could not have been foreSeen, and all or
which were the product of a fine spirit OF de
yotion TO the country's interests, every officer
and man had q share So handsomely has Pres
ident Roosevelt's sagacty in planning the voy-
age been vindicated that he may heartily con-
gratulate himself the realization of his IDEAL
and thank those who have so effectively CO.
operated in the work
Gratifying as were the courtesies every where
shown 10 officers and men. perhaps the most
significant tribute that paid by "The Chron-
icle' an official publication issued at the British
stronghold which guards the entrance TO tie
Mediterranean. That paper. noting the fact that
the United States navy Is now second only TO
Fngiand's. emphasized the remarkable homo
geneity of the visiting feet. and pronounced the
new record made in battleship steaming "a
triumph for American ships, American men and
American organization" 1t Is peculiarly
agreeable to have such sentiments uttered by a
representative Of the nation which has done
more than any other TO develop sea power. and
which ought 10 be the best judge Of the elements

which from the first was sure TO fail unless re-

TORS used 20 DO In the days before gentlemens
agreements only they did not wait a year or
more before doing il. Stability in prices, which
the professed object of the effort TO resist
the usual tendency OF periods Of contraction, is
desirable, and it may reasonably be maintained
that manufacturers who have resisted the temp
tatioa TO put their prices as high possible in
times OF feyerish business activity are entitled
10 resist the Generalization Of a period of de
preston and TO hold their prices steady in face
of a collapse in demand But the ideal of one
price no matter what conditions Of business
prevail, is an ideal and nothing more. Men
