eoAL SENTENCE IS POSTPONED
Court is Occupied Saturday With
Civil Csse--Supreme Court
Decision Leaves Small
HOPE

The expected sentence of William
Gohl, convicted of the murder of
Charles Hadberg, by Judge Sheeks
Saturday, was not pronounced, owing
to the court being busy with a civil
trial. Attorneys for Gohl, J. A. Hut
cheson and A. e. Cross were present,
ready to file motions for setting aside
the verdict, arrest OF judgment and
for a new trial.
A decision by the supreme court,
handed down Saturday, leaves the at
torneys for Gohl but small hope for
success on appeal to that court. This
decision was in the case from Ia
of Chas. F. Newcomb, convicted of
the murder of Martin Kvalshaug, and
is of unusual interest in that it de-
termines for the first time large
number of questions that have been
raised throughout the state in GRIM
inal cases since the laws passed by
the last legislature took effect. The
decision holds that the new jury law
is constitutional and valid, with it's
division of the counties into jury dis
tricts, and it's provision that none but
taxpayers may serve as Jurors.
1t holds further that there was no
open season for murder between
March % and June 6, nor any other
time saving clauses in the criminal
code, and in the special session laws
of 1901 have prevented. While under
the rules the appeal might have been
thrown out for lack of perfecting a
record, the supreme court went into
the case on its merits, and holds that
there is no merit in any contention
raised by attorneys for Newcomb and
that he must hang.

Detroit. They pay the boat fare and
street car fare additional to get work
in Detroit. They are Americans most
of them"
Walter Boug, who owns WindsOrs
biggest clothing store, is the man who
sells Christy's London hats for So
here. They cost S. in Detroit, 1851
feet away.
"Of course the duty is the only
reason why l can sell Christy hat
for 50 less than they do in Detroit,
he told me. "They invoice to me
$24 a dozen. l sell them for SO. The
Detroit merchant would pay about
$1.50 duty on each hat.
There must be lot of money for
somebody in American-made s. hats.
It's the same way with clothes. The
duty on good all-wool clothes is A
cents a pound and 60 per cent of
their value. That would be $3.50 on
that $15 suit hanging there. It's as
good suit as you can buy in De-
troit for $25. 1t would have to be
sold there for more"

ABERDEEN PROTECTS
ITS WATER SUPPLY
City's Injunction Preventing Logging
Company From Polluting
Stream Is Sustained

The state supreme court has sus-
tained a decision of the lower court
granting an injunction on the petit
tion of the city of Aberdeen against
the Lytle Logging & Mercantile COM
pany.
Aberdeen for many years secured
it's water from Stewart creek. The
logging company owns land through
which a creek flows that feeds the
city supply, and has been logging in
that vicinity.
The city ocntended that logging
operations were conducted in a man.
ner which polluted the stream, and
the supreme court holds that such is
the case, and that logging can be con-
tinued without much additional ex-
pense and in a manner that will not
interfere with the water.

SMELL ENTERS RACE.
TACOMA CANDIDATE TO form
ALLIANCE With NC CREDIE.
Pierce County Politicians Assert He
Has Definitely Decided to Make
Race for TOga. With the Tacoma
Papers Behind Him, Smell Is Said
10 Be Stronger Than Mccormick.

Judge William II. Smell, well inform
ed Pierce county politicians asset, has
definitely decided to make the fight
for United States senator, says the
Seattle Times.
Overtures have been made to him
by one of the Tacoma newspapers
which fought r. l.. Mccormick, and
SHELLS friends are working to get the
united support of the Tacoma daily
press. The stumbling block, as poll
ticians outside Tacoma understand it,
is to get the right kind of support
from the Perkins publications.
If the newspaper end of the deal
goes through an alliance will be made
between Smell and McCredie-the Ia
coma senatorial candidate to support
the Vancouver baseball magnate in
his campaign for denomination as
representative, and the Columbia river
counties to reciprocate by giving Smell
their support.
1t is not asserted by the politicians
working out the details of this plan
that they can merge the entire Sound
district into the scheme, but it would
be a strong alliance for both Smell
and McCredie, guaranteeing Nc
ing Smell into the senatorial fight with
a strong following. In fact, Smell
probably would have better start
than Mccormick had with several
months of work.
Smell is to accompany CONNER
.cial club excursion from Tacoma to
Eastern Washington points the latter
part of the month. The excursion IS
I'LL ~ fNfn a. C
ing the army maneuvers on the pralrle
south of Tacoma, but advantage will
be taken of the opportunity to exhibit
Judge Smell and allow him to meet
as many as possible of Eastern Wash
ington business men.
AS the party will be out five days
and will make the journey over two
railroads, the trip will afford Smell a
chance to pose as an officially lndors-
ed candidate from Pierce county.
1t is declared that several import
ant conferences have been held in
Tacoma at which all rival political in
terests were represented and that the
Smell program is now pretty we'll out
lined. The only hitch is the lack of an
actual agreement as yet on the part
of the newspapers to support the
former Judge. When tnlS assurance
is given, SHELLS announcement is to
be made.
1t had been planned by Judge Smell
and his wife to make trip to Europe,
but the withdrawal of Mccormick pre-
sented new political situation and
Smell is willing to stay at home and
make the race.
There is little doubt that Smell will
be far stronger in Pierce county than
Mccormick. He probably will be able
to break into the serious strength of
Miles Poindexter in Pierce county.
Pierce has stronger PoindeXter fol-
lowing than any other west side
county. In fact, Tacoma is the seat
of the insurgent movement in this
side of the mountains, but Snell's s
strong personal following and ac-
quaintance in Pierce county will go
long way toward breaking up this
organization.

For Hqh School Teams

OLYMPIA, May 21-Although it is

announced the subject for debate in
the high schools during 1901, which
is as follows:
"Resolved, that an income tax
should be part of federal system of
taxation; provided that the question
of the constitutionality of such tax
shall not be raised"

NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

My little son, boy Of five. broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc.
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At
the time l was induced to try Cuti.
cura he was SO bad that had to cut
his hair of and put the Cuticura ONT
ment on him on bandages, as 1t was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
Of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass Of
sores. The bandages used to stick to
his skin and in removing them 1t used
to take the skin off with them. and
the screams from the poor child were
heartbreaking. ! began to think that
he would never get well. but after the
second application of Cuticura oint.
ment began to see signs of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced to
dry up. His skin peeled off twenty
times, but 1t finally yielded to the
treatment. Now can say that he is
entirely cured, and n stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
the cure was effected. Robert Wattam.
