JUDGE UNFIT FOR
SUPREME BENCH
State Bar Committee Finds
Judge Root Of Seattle Guilty
of Gross Improperly.
WANT GRAND Jury TO PROBE
Dickered With Great Northern Over
Money Matters and Accepted
Transportation.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 12.-The state
bar association committee appointed
to investigate the conduct of Judge
Milo A. Root, who resigned as a Judge
of h supreme court two months ago,
made its report Saturday. Judge Root
was recently elected for another term
Of six years. His resignation affected
only the tern TO which he was elected
two years ago. II he fails to qualify
Monday, Jan. II. the Office will be de.
clared vacant.
The committee finds that JUDGE
Root has been guilty of gross impro
priety, which units him for the SUI
preme bench.
Findings Are Sensational.
The report makes these conclusions
and recommendations:
That Judge Root had correspond
ence with NJ. J. Gordon, attorney for
the Great Northern Railroad company,
concerning money transactions.
That Judge Root accepted from the
Great Northern and other railroads
free transportation.
That Judge Root filed as the opin-
ion of the supreme court an almost
verbatim draft of an opinion dictated
by M. j. Gordon, attorney for the
Great Northern. in the case of Harris
against the railroad company.
Some Points in Doubt.
The committee is unable to obtain
any facts to s~ubstantiate the rumors
of the giving out of advance informa-
ton concerning the decisions of the
supreme court.
The committee is unable to obtain
any facts to substantiate rumOrs OF
bribery and corruption.
The committee holds that the con-
duct of Judge Root in receiving free
transportation is highly censurable
and requests the judges of the supe.
rior court of Spokane county to call a
grand jury to investigate fully the
ruInors of corruption.
Decide Course In Future.
Believing that its suggestion will be
acted upon, the committee feels that
it is only fair to withhold any other
recommendations.
Whether such inquisition be held or
not, tie supreme court and the state
bar association will then confer to
reach a basis for further action or
proceeding.

Whatever may have been their emo
ton, they faced the court to receive
sentence with the same stole express
SiOns as have been their marked char.
aCteTistic during the sensational trial.
In passing sentence Judge Jones de-
clared that he could see no mitigating
circumstances, mentioned by the jury
in the return of the verdict, and con
sidered that but a compromise to some
members Of the jury who hesitated to
pass the sentence of death. Thus he
felt that the responsibility had been
placed on him, a duty which he would
not shirk.

death and two others sentenced to
twenty years in the state ~penitentiary
have been placed in Jail at Jackson
