burned to death and several other
persons had narrow escapes. The fire
started from hot box and spread
with fearful rapidity before fierce
wind. Automatic sprinklers checked
the FIRE for a time, but the FIRE depart
ment was hampered in its fight by
lack Of water pressure and when z
good supply was secured it was too
late to check the flames The fremen
worked frantically and saved much
valuable adjoining property. The mill
property was owned by Michael
Earles of Seattle and Thomas Earles
of this city. The latter declined to
state tonight whether the mill would
be rebuilt.

and more comprehensive than stated
by Mr.. PraeI; and that if carried, as
written, it might be construed as a
final adjudication Of the whole mat
ter. and would seat Mr.. Carney
finally
Mr. Karinen arose at this point and
said he would like to say word. He
said he didn't want the office unless
he was really entitled thereto, and
that he believed he had proofs of
errors and mistakes which would
give him the Office III the event
recount was had. He only asked
fair play. he said. But meantime Mi
Karinen, though his opponent was
declared elected BY the clerks and
judges and had his title Of election,
still kept his seat. Mr.. Karinen part
ly explained this by stating that just
before the meeting he had asked
Mayor Smith if he should retain his
seat, He did not state Mayor Smiths
reply, though leaving it to be under
stood BY implication that he was to
stay where he was with the consent
of the new mayor, pending some de-
cision by the council,
By this time there had been much
discussion. and the real issue was
more Or less clouded, and Attorney
G. G. Fulton, who was present ap-
parently in the interests Of Mr.. Car
ney, arose and said in effect;
"The proposition is as plain as 2x2
equals 4. Mr.. Carney was duly de-
clared elected BY the judges and
clerks Of the election, and he was
duly given his certificate Of election.
The council cannot refuse him his
seat and are compelled to seat him.
Then if a recount arises, and it is
found he was not properly elected,
you may so declare and act upon it.
But meantime he is the rightfully
elected councilman and is entitled to
his seat"
This proposition seemed 50 plain
that there didn't seem the slightest
doubt Of its correctness.
Councilman Beiland arose and
said he was Of the same opinion as
Attorney Fulton, and he also wanted
to know if Mr.. Karinen had taken
the proper steps to call for recount.
The city attorney, Mr.. Aber-
crombie, replied to this BY stating
that he understood that Mr.. Karinen
had not fled notice of his contest
upon his opponent, as required by
the state law. The city attorney
stated that the procedure laid down
by the statute would have to be fol-
Ilowed inasmuch as the charter did not
provide for a procedure in the case
Of contested elections as between
candidates for the council
