they said, I'VE are sick of this. We
don't mind paying our share toward
the upkeep of an army and navy.
But we want to be left alone. We
want to do our business quietly. If
war scare occurs once year 1T
does us incalculable harm. You tell
the kaiser that antics like those he
has been indulging in must be
stopped. Otherwise he will incur
the hostility of the entire business
section of Germany"
Buelow faithfully reported these
words to the kaiser. They had a
great deal to do with the latter's
climbdown at the time. and have
done much to keep him in the
straight and narrow path of discre-
ton ever since.
But the point is this. 1t is the
business men and the thinking men
of Germany who support Herr Lede-
bour's bill. They see clearly that a
great country cannot be run to suit
the caprice of the most erratic indi-
yidual in Europe Had this bill been
law when the Daily Telegraph inter-
view appeared, Buelow would have
been impeached, and. to all intents
and purposes, the kaiser with him.
The possession of such power by
the reichstag would prevent any
repetition of such an incident in the
future-and the kaiser is about due
for one of his periodical outbursts.
The measure, then. will have
strong support in the reichstag.
Even though the influence of the
court and the aristocracy should de-
feat it this time. its failure will only
be temporary. It's passage can only
be a matter of time.

COUNTY OFFICIALS WORRIED
Classification of Whitman County May be Reduced Because
of insufficient Population. Large Decrease in
Officers Salaries Would Be Result

CONSERVATION reigns among the
county officials of Whitman county,
due to the belief on the part OF
many that the federal census of the
county for 1910 will not show a
large enough population to keep the
county in the seventh class, to which
class 1t was raised four years ago on
the affidavit of County School
superintendent Showalter that the
population was in excess of the re-
quired $4,000. Estimates made on
the basis of the school population Of
the county are responsible for the 10
.lief that the county will suffer a
drop in classification.
When the county was placed in
the seventh class a material raise in
officers salaries went into effect.
and it is possible that, should the
federal census recently completed
show population of less than 80 900
the number required for a county Of
the seventh class, the officers will be
obliged to refund the amount of

Judge Garfield Of the superior

to dismiss the case of Anton Fehcren-

Mining & Milling Company Fehren-
hacker sued the company for $4,000
damages, claiming that he lost one
eye and an arm in an explosion in a

argued for nine days, at the end Of
which time the attorneys for the
mining company moved that the
case be thrown out of court, and the
action of Judge Garfield in sustain
the motion put quietus on the
plaintiffs claims for damages. The
Judge based his action on the ground
that Fehrenbaeher was working for
contractor and not for the copper

KAYLERS IN
HERTZ FORTUNE
DIR. FRED KAYLER AND SISTER,
MRS. AUDREY BADGER, WILL
GET PORTION OF LARGE ES-
TATE.

Or. Fred Kayler, the Pullman dem
list last Tuesday received word that
he and his sister Mrs Audrey
Badger, were heirs to a large estate
left by their grandfather, Frederick
Kayler who recently died at Nor
van, LennoX county, Ontario.
Chief of Police Sullivan, of Spo-
kane. on Monday received word
from L. NJ Wilson, an attorney of
Nopanee, Ontario, to the effect that
portion of the estate was in wait
ing for the two grandchildren, and
Sullivan was informed by p. Graham,
a friend of Dr. Kayler, that the heirs
could he located at Pullman. Chief
Sullivan informed Dr. Kayler of
his good luck by telephone the next
day, which was the first intimation
he had that a fortune had been left
to him. The extent of the estate is
estimated at between $780, 900 and
100000, the uncertainty in
amount being due to the fact that
the deceased Kaylor had a brother
who died in London, England, about
Is years ago and left an estate valu-
ed at about $2,000,000 and it is not
known what disposition was made of
his estate.
One eighth of the estate, which
consists principally Of agricultural
lands, is the portion assigned to Dr..
Kayler and his sister and he will
make trip east within a few months
in an attempt to straighten the af-
fair our Dr. Kaylor seems in
doubt as to the extent of his grand
fathers estate, and made the follow
ing statement Wednesday:
My father has several brothers
and sisters living in various towns
of the province of Ontario, so that
it is likely that my sister and | are
not the only heirs to the fortune
of my grandfather. | have not
heard anything except by tele-
phone message from Chief of Po-
lice Sullivan of Spokane, who had
received an inquiry regarding my
present home, My grandfather
name was Fred Kaylor, too. do not
think he had any fortune of any size
he certainly was not a millionaire.

Crop Condition Serious.

Crop conditions in the vicinity of
Pullman are getting serious, owing
to the continued dry weather, and
it is estimated that the yield this year
will fall considerably short of that of
last year. Farmers report that
grain is heading out with only
stand OF five or six inches, too low
to be reached by binder or header.
Conservative estimates place the
yield in this county at about % per
cent under last year.

PIPE ORGAN FOR W. S. G.
Monster Instrument Is Being In
stalled in Auditorium Building

The new pipe organ for the Wash
ington State College, one of the lar
eest in the west, has arrived and is
getng installed in the Auditorium
building by Mr. Jardine, one of the
best organ experts in the United
States. The organ occupied two
cars and cost the college $500. 1t
was purchased from the w w. Kim
ball Company of Chicago, and the
freight from that city amounted to
over $1,000, which gives some idea of
the size Of the instrument. The large
panels on either side of the stage
in the auditorium are being torn
out and the mammoth organ will oc-
cupy these recesses, the keyboard to
be in the orchestra pit. The instru-
ment contains 26 speaking stops ana
1000 pipes, some of which are over
20 feet long.
About four weeks will be required
to install the organ and as soon as,
it is in place the college authorities
will secure the services of a first
class organist.

SHARPSIGNS
THE NEXT NATIONAL PLATFORMS

In thinking and specializing about
1912, the politicians should not con-
fine themselves to the presidential
candidates. The candidates must
run on platforms, and the platforms,
because of recent experiences, will
have to be drawn with unusual care
next time.
For a full year, the two principal
deiverances of 19OS-the one upon
which Mr.. Taft, the other upon which
Mr. Bryan stood-have been subjects
of much heated dispute. Both part
les are accused of having violated
their campaign promises. The
Payne law is described as a repudia-
ton of the tariff plank of the Chic
ago platforms, while the votes of
many democrats on various schedules
while tariff revision was in progress
last year were in fiat conflict with the
Denver platform.
But the question will not relate eX-
clusively to clearness in the terms
employed. OF course, the express
sions should be as clear as possible.
The country should know precisely
what is meant. But there will arise
at the next national convention the
proposition at to how far a platform
binds 1t is now a new proposition.
Platforms have been disregarded be-
fore. But probably no platform ever
had less binding force than the Den
yer platform disclosed when those
who had ratified it as candidates for
Congress were called upon to sustain
it's provisions in their work as legis-
lators.
The democracy was committed to
free lumber in so many words. And
yet in both the House and the Senate
democrats voted for a duty on lum-
Der, and explained their votes on the
score that in casting them they were
obeying the wishes and considering
the interests of their constituents. |
