1t is not possible to now give the

nae who was accused of violation of
the Edmunds Act.
The trial of Shige Matsu was the
last at which Judge Woodruff will pre-
side. He expects to leave for the Coast
December 81, and will handle nc more
criminal eases. Most of those he has
handled since he came to Honolulu have
been of the Matsu kind, and possibly
Judge Woodruff has found the work
quite different from that to which he
was accustomed while he was with the
department of Justice in Washington
At the close of the trial the Judge
thanked the jurors, remarklng that
rarely before in his experience had he
found such a representative body of
men serving as jurors.
Takata, japanese convicted recent
~ of violation of the Edmunds Act,
was sentenced to one day in prison and
to pay the costs of court. Default in
payment will make his sentence equal
to one of about a month in prison.

DOES NOT LIKE PROVISIONS EN-

CLASS.
(By Associated Press. }

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. A.
General interest was shown among
congressman today over the report
that the president intends to veto the
census. bill on account of it's provi-
sions excluding the 5000 employees
of the census bureau in this city
from the classified civil service. If
the bill is vetoed it is the most i'm
portant measure he has antagonized
in that way, and if congress should
pass it over his veto it will be the
first time such action has been taken.
The sentiment in congress favoring
the census bill in it's present form is
SO extensive that it is generally be-
lieved that a two-thirds vote can be
obtained for it.

expected that the legislation will be

in order that there might be no dan

No SALOONS IN
EAST WENATCHEE
EAST SIDERS ARE CIRCULATING
PETITION TO DOUGLAS COUN-

ING AGAINST LICENSE.

The people of East Wenatchee are
up In arms at the report that sa-
loon town is to be started across the
river from Wenatchee in case the sa-
looms are driven out of Wenatchee.
The residents of that section want
no saloon located on the other side
of the bridge or in fact any place
in the growing section across the
river. To circumvent any plans that
might be made towards that end Pc
titions are being circulated among
the east side residents directed
to the county commissioners of
Douglas county and asking that body
to withhold the issuance of saloon
licenses for that locality. 1t is said
that the petitions are being very
generally signed and it is thought
that it will be impossible for any
saloon man to get a license there.
