WANTS COURT TO
DECIDE COAL CASES

Washington-The secretary of the
interior will recommend in his an.
nual report, soon to be made public,
that the entire group of Alaska coal
land cases, dealing with what are
known as the Cunningham claims, be
taken entirely out of the Jurisdiction
of the interior department, so far as
their final consideration and adjud.
ication are concerned and placed un.
der the jurisdiction of the court OF
appeals OF the District OF Columbia.
For several months these cases
have, at the request OF Secretary Bal
linger. been given entirely into the
hands Of President Taft for his spec.
ial direction, with a view that no ac.
ton be taken in the matter without
the presidents sanction, and now
that the time is drawing near when
. final disposition Of these important
cases must be made, Mr.. Ballinger is
anxious that they shall be placed in
such position that even the most
biased citizen may feel that no sort
of personal leaning on the par, of
department heads W., be a factor in
the final decision.

LITTLE LOCAL lECIS-
LATI0N BY CONGRESS
Short Session Will Be Devoted
to Measures of Present
Administration.

Washington Comparatively little
local legislation for the Pacific North
west will be considered at the ap-
preaching short session of Congress.
In the brief three months from De-
cember to March 4, Congress will
be obliged to pass all of the great
supply bills that provide for runns-es
the government. and when to this
necessary program are added a few
important general measures that will
be pressed by the administration, lit
tie time will be available for purely
local legislation for any part of the
country. Therefore, most Of the pend
ing bills introduced by the Senators
and Representatives from Oregon,
Washington and Idaho will fall OF
enactment.
As q matter of fact, there will be
little more than two months of ac-
tive work in Congress this winter.
Not much can be accomplished before
the holiday recess, outside OF the
preparation by committees OF the big
bills that 60 on the legislative slate.
7Ne recess itself will take out, two
weeks. 30 that most OF the active leg.
islating must be done between Janu.
ary and March 4.
II Congress carries out the policy
understood to have been adopted at
the last session of passing an annual
river and harbor bill, the appropria-
tons for the waterways of the North
west will overtower all other legisla
ton of the winter SO far as local in
terest Is concerned.
The Columbia River, with its prin
cipal tributaries, will be included, but
how many other rivers and harbors
of the Northwest will be equally for
tunate cannot be ascertained in ad
vance of the meeting of the river ano
harbor committee Certain it is, how
ever. that no projects will receive ap
propriations unless appropriations are
recommended by the army engineers
There is not likely to be big ON
pibus public building bill at the shor
session, and the probabilities are tina
there will be none at all, though Con
gress probably will make appropria
tious for purchasing public building
sites which were authorized at th'
last session. In this event the cities
of the Northwest, where sites were au
thorized at the last session, will ge
the necessary money to conclude tn
deals made by the Treasury Depart
ment.

Game.

Lynden was defeated by the Norma
after hard fought contest last Sat
urday on tie local grounds.
The Normal lads outweighed the
local boys considerable. The Lynden
boys certainly showed the people OF
Lynder that they had a classy team
when they went out of their class and
held the Normal boys down as they
did.
You wouldn't know the Lynden team
as the same one that started the
season. No one man was responsible
for the good showing made last Sat
urday but by good consistent team
work they were able to hold down
the Dig huskies from the Normal
Stub Cade, was the bright star for
the Norinals. The Normal executed
one brilliant forward pass which look
ed like touchdown but was stopped
by running out Of bounds.
The game started with the Normal
kicking off to Lynden. Lynden car
ried the ball back several yards. The
first quarter ended with the ball in
the Normal territory Lynden having
made the most yardage. Score Nor

The second quarter started with the

was another repetition of the first
quarter. In this qaarte:r Fritz of

had a little the advantage in yardage.

MAY PUT LIQUOR
QUESTION ASIDE

cca,cie- through the defeat or l..
A. Scott, of Ritzville, many believe
that the next legislature will leave
the liquor question alone. Scott was
recognized as the dry" candidate for
speaker, in case of election.
UnQuestionably the leader for the
speakership is Howard Taylor, of the
Fortieth district, Kim county The
other candidates are E. A. Sims, of
Port Townsend, in the 32d district,
and George E. Dickinson. of Ellens-
burg, in the 10Th district. They were
all members of the last legislature.
FiSht Over for Two Wears.
Under the local option law, which
Taylor and others contend ought not
to be changed by the next legislature,
the question of the sale of liquor was
placed before the voters for the last
time in two years. For that reason
the Anti-Saloon League crowded as
many elections into the campaign as
1t could. Throughout the state there
were seventy-nine distinct fights; and
although the vote generally was alb
normally low the interest in these
fights resulted in livel' contests in
most of the places affected Belling-
ham and Everett voted dry by major
tiles of 200 and 27S, respectively,
while Kent, which had voted dry a
year ago, switched and decided to
have saloons in the future Auburn,
where the question was brought up
again, also voted wet. Some other
towns that voted wet were: Sedro-
port, North Yakima and Charleston.
crete, Arlington, Granite Falls, New
port, North Yakima and Charles.
Charleston tried dry" experiment
early in the year, but the town found
other navy yard centers were wet"
and experienced a raid on the Enlist
ed Mems Club in Charleston, which
threatened to drive that organization
to some other town. So Charleston
moved back into he wet column
again. Wenatchee reaffirmed its dry
decision Prosser, Edmonds, Mt. ver-
non, Hamilton, Palouse, Davenport
and Deer Park also went dry.

BY THE NORMAL

bali in the center Of the field, the

ball was returned about 10 yards. In
this quarter the Normal punted an
nearly forced Hadley hack of the
line for a safety.
1t was still seesaw. UP and down
the field but the Normals weight and
endurance was beginning to tell again
st Lynden. Stub Cade pulled off his
brilliant run in this quarter. The Qua
ter ended with the yaldage in favo
of the Normal. Score Normal 0-Lyn
den 0.
The fourth quarter started with
new life in the Normal team, while
Lyndrn fought stubbornly to defend
their goal line. The Normal now
started to play line bucks with good
gains. They slowly forced the Lynden
boys down clost to the goal line and
finally Fritz Of the Normal, carried
the tall over for the first touchdown.
Cade kicked goal. Normal 6-Lyn-
den O.
Again the Normal kicked off to Lyn
den They soon held the locals for
downs and started down the field for
the second and last touchdown. The
