CLINE REPORTS
ON new LAW
Returns From Olympia
Where He Held a Con.
ference with Committee

Charles E. Cline, the man who was
appointed by the grangers at the
meeting in this City last Saturday 10
go to Olympia and prepare a draft Of
new township organization law. re-
turned TO Bellingham last night and
is today in conference with the COM
mittee on proposed amendment at the
courthouse. Cline has put il a week
Of hard work preparing a rough draft
of the proposed new bill which he is
presenting to the grange representa-
tives this afternoon for their inspec-
ton.
Under the new law as proposed. the
present board of county commits
sioners becomes a thing Of the past,
after the present terms of office ex-
pire. In order to comply with The
state constitution a new board of
county commissioners is provided 10
consist of a commissioner from each
organized town and one from each
ward in the incorporated cities. These
commissioners will meet but twice 4
year 10 transact general county busi-
ness. The commissioners will be paid
on a per diem basis, and will not re-
ceive a monthly salary as at the pres
ent time
Another radical change in the
present township law is in regard TO
roads. The new bill as drafted by
Cline provides that the incorporated
cities must help pay for the construc-
ton and maintenance of trunk roads.
1t was contended that under the pres
ent township law the cities are exemp
from paying any Of the cost Of the
country roads.
Cline states that he has conferred
with the representatives from Spo-
kane county, where the township Law
has also been adopted and states thai
he believes the two counties viii be
able to get together OF the provision
OF the proposed nes. .s----I-....l u

TRUST DEFEATS
ITS OWN END
Millions of Pounds of Cold
Storage Produce Held
For Five Years

CLncago-Millions of pounds of
cold storage butter, eggs, cheese and
poultry, some of it as much as five
years old, according to estimates of
dealers, are about to be thrown upon
the market and sacrificed at what
ever price they will bring as the re-
suit OF the collapse within the last
lew days of the food trust" which,
by steady aggressions has piled prices
OF provisions UP to their present
figures.
Although the collapse of the "cor-
ner" is likely to be felt most keenly
by the cold storage men of Chicago
the pinch will be felt in many of the
Eastern and Middle West shipping
centers. Chicago, New York, Phila-
delphia, Omaha. Kansas City, St.
Louis and Minneapolis are spoken of
as the points where most of the un.
loading probably would be done
In putting up prices to the high
figures attained during the last two
years the cold storage men cut the
ground from under their own feet.
People who could not afford to pay 35
and 40 cents a dozen for eggs stopped
eating them.
Just how much food is in storage
in and around Chicago there is no
means OF aseertaining. Only the
wholesalers know, ana they will not
tell. A few days ago one firm con
trolling SO warehouses admitted it
had in storage 44,00O,0OO pounds OF
butter that must be disposed OF be

Proposed Bill viii Change the Map
of Northeastern Washington.

Olympia.-An omnibus county d.
vision bill which would change the
entire map of northeastern Washing
ton is being prepared by representa-
tives of that part of the state.
This plan would cut up Stevens,
Ferry, Okanogan and Douglas coun-
ties and would leave in their stead six
entirely new divisions of the state.
The division of Stevens County by
the amputation of the eastern half TO
form the new Pend Oreille County is
already practically assured. This is
only the first of the provisions of the
proposed omnibus bill. The Calispel
Mountains would form the county line
and Newport has already been Sc
Iected as the new county seat.
Next the trainers of the bill plan to
take the remainder of Stevens County
and the east half of Ferry to make
the second of the new counties.
The third county of the six pro
posed would be formed from the west
half of Ferry County and a strip run
ming north and south from the east
side of Okanogan County, comprising
about one-third OF the territory OF that
division.
The fourth county would be, under
this plan, the northwestern corner OF
Okanogan County. This would be
rectangular county including approx
mately half of the present territory OF
Okanogan.
The fifth county would be formed
from the southern part of Okanogan
and the northern part of Douglas.
This county would be, roughly speak
ing, triangular in shape, apexing at
the northeast corner of the present
Douglas County.
The final county would be formed
of the remainder OF Douglas

in the money, inasmuch as there was
no law authorizing the highway board
to sell the property of the state or
the highway commissioner TO accept
the money, and therefore there could
be no embezzlement. Judge Mitchell
took this view cf the case.
