Court Proceedings

The session OF the superior court
which convened Tuesday morning
with Judge Joiner on the bench,
came to a close Wednesday about
midnight, when the jury in the case
Of the State of Washington VS.. Vim.
Chappell, charged with grand
larceny. brought in a verdict of not
guilty. This was the first jury trial
held in the county for some time,
and excited much interest on ac-
count of the large number who be-
came connected in business way
with matters from which the suit
resulted. The members of the jury
were: w. w. Lee, VIM. Randles and
Jos. Sandwich, of Friday Harbor ;
F. j. Dovillerr, Of Easti Sound: 10
seph Iotte, of Dolphin bay: j. E.
Glossop, of Shaw island: A. E.
Biggs, A. T Erb, Bert Whalen. Jos.
Burt, Jas. Meiklejohn ard Harry
lowell, Of Lopez island.
Argument for the defense in the
Coghlan contempt case was made
Tuesday evening by R. E. Morris,
of Seattle. His contention was
that inasmuch as the builders Of the
dam on the Cowell property were
trespassers, that Mr.. Coghlans or
ders from his company to take the
dam away were to be obsyed rather
than an order from court which
had no right to issue one. The
prosecution will present Argument
probably by brief and the matter
be taken under advisement by
Judge Joiner.
VIM. Norton, charged with the
illegal sale OF liquor, pleaded guilty
and was fined $25 and costs.
Mrs. Ed. Daley was granted de-
cree of divoce on plea Of drunken
ness.
Judge Joiner, VIM. Chappell, G.
M. Baxter, Mr. Chappell's attorney,

day mornings boats.

The latest Cow Song
| sing about the stately COW,
With antlers growing on her brow,
A tassel on her tail;
No othre animal can put
So we'll and skilfully its foot
Inside six-quart pail
NV old cow prods me with her horns,
And puts her trilbys on my corns,
And fills my soul with grief;
But she consoles me with some milk
That's smooth and white and fine as
silk,
And rich beyond b=lief.
The city-dweling modern man
Goes to the grocer for can
Of milk made by a trust;
Or from the dairyman he'll get
A pint of something pale and wet
In which to soak his crust.
And all the people Of that ilk,
Who live on canned or doctored milk.
Are gaunt and sad Of face;
While l, who keep large red COW,
Could polish off Jack Johnson now.
And vindicate the race.
For you, O COW, my harp | swat!
You have your fault, as who has not?
You trample on my toes;
And when | come with shining pail
You slug me with your muddy tail,
And nearly break my nose.
And often, when I'm in your stall,
You jam me up against the wall,
And break three ribs or four;
And when the buckets nearly full
Of milk as pure as carded wool
You kick it through the door.
But then, that milk is just dream,
And when it comes to sure-thing
cream
A man must have COW;
And so gladly overlook
The passing kick, the playful hook
From those spikes on your brow.

Mrs. Sanders. after delivering
the diplomas. made short talk
expressing her satisfaction with
her school and hopes for the fu'
ture.
The audiences both evenings
were far In excess of any hereto.
fore had in the school building.
The future of the school looks
bright. For the past session, un-
der the able management of the
principal and the strong corps Of
assistants, it has made rapid strides
In the right direction, and all the
faculty asks Is the hearty cooper
alton of the patrons to make it the
success 1t should and will be, and
thereby accomplish the end had In
view when the school was estab-
lished-the best good and welfare
of the children who attend.

Hon. Percy 3. Ouln.

The formal announcement of this
gentleman from this (the 7th)
district will be found elsewhere.
On the first page will be found
a biographical sketch of the life OF
Mr.. Quin, which appeals strongly
to those who value worth, indom-
liable will, perseverance and laud-
able ambition. It will be seen
from this sketch that Mr.. Quin
has attained his present prom
inence by dint of inflexible will
power and devotion to duty.
Whatever be has achieved has
been won by those qualities of
mind and probity of conduct, be.
fore which all obstacles in the
pathway of career are leveled.
A two years more or less intimate
mountaineering with Mr.. Quin
has revealed one controlling inn
pulse in his political aspira.
tions-answering devotion to the
cause of the people as distinguished
from subserviency to plutocratic
dictatorship. In all essentials of
thought and purpose, be is with
the people in their mighty effort
to free themselves from the bond
age of special privilege and in
endeavor to restore the powers of
government to its only source-the
people. He is nothing if not
simon pure Jeffersonian DEM
ocrat, whose directing belief is
that this is a government OF the
people, by th~ people, and forsthe
people and not for the classes.
This is q very strong platform
to stand upon.-a platform Mr..
Roosevelt stands upon today and
the only platform man can
occupy who offers for the high
position Of congressman. His can
didacy recalls that of Caleb Plum
-a~ rsao time Cnnovaxess4ox
The Port Gibson reveille., 1912-05-30

he stressed-'sof the people and
for the people," And that is just
what is needed nowadays man
of the people for the people, not
necessarily implying dissimulation
to reach the goal of ambition, but
a record that makes the claim
worthy of credence. Mr.. Quin's
hard struggle in youth and early
manhood are evidential facts that
his declarations are based upon
that deep sympathy he has for the
masses from which he sprung and
to which he points with pride and
whom be regards as the source of
all power and creators of all
wealth. The people can do worse
things than elect Mr.. Quin to con.
gress. The Meteor wishes him sue
cess in his canvass.-The Crystal
Springs Meteor, March 2oth.
