SOME VIEWS OF
CANDIDATE HOOD
Local Improvement When
Owners Want Them -
Matron When Needed

Since the promulgation of Jas. A.
Hoods platform several matters have
been called to his attention that were
not covered in his published state
ment, among them, the matter of plac-
ing woman on the police pay roll
as matron at the Jail. In an interview
yesterday, Mr.. Hood said he was in
favor of woman at the city Jail when
her services were required, but he did
not favor adding an unnecessary name
to the citys pay roll. He believed
that arrangements could be made
with some organization to furnish a
matron whenever there are women or
children in the Jail, she to be paid
fixed sum when so engaged.
Another matter, Mr. Hood desired
to be made clear. In the matter of
local improvements. He believes such
improvements should not be forced
upon people; that before project is
started it should be made clear that
large majority of the property own
ers interested supported the propo-
sition.

DEATH OF MISS SCOTT,
Talented Young Musician Passes
Away Sunday Morning, After
An illness Of Three Weeks.

Miss Cathrine jeanette Scott, daugh.
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. A. A. Scott, 2OS
North X street, died at a local hospital
Sunday morning. News of her death
shocked the numerous friends of Miss
Scott and family, as her illness was
not generally known to be of a serious
character.
Miss Scott was born in Ohio, and
had lived in Aberdeen with her par
ents seven years, her father being the
we'll known piano teacher, and was
herself musician of state wide fame,
being a graduate of the Kroger school
of music in st. Louis. Her charming
manner had endeared her to large
circle of friends, who mourn her un-
timely end.
The funeral will take place tomor-
row afternoon. services at the First
Methodist church, pastor Rev. J. T..
Mcqueen officiating.

JOHN MCLISH
DID NOT DROWN
The Supposed Suicide Is Alive
and Well, in Billings,
Montana
WATER WAS TO COLD
Clambered Out Of River, and
Made His Way to Olympia
the Next Morning
WATER WAS TO COLD

John McClish, the barber whose
body was believed to be resting on
the bottom of the Wishkah river, is
alive and we'll, according to let
ter received by Mrs. McClish yester-
day. Instead of being food for fishes,
McClish is working at his trade in
Billings, Montana. The contents of
the letter are not made public, but
the fact of it's receipt and where
from were made known last night by
H. E. Martin, of Hoquiam, a friend
of the family.
Water Was Too Cold
w. A. Husk, former barber of
Aberdeen, now in the liquor business
in Olympia, met McClish the day
following the alleged suicide. Nc
Clish was dressed in logger's out
fit and wore blue glasses. Accord
ing to the story told by Husk, Nc
Clish entered the place and said,
you don't know me-" He then told
his story.
According to Johns story" said
Husk. "he had fully made up his
mind to end his life. He told me
about jumping into the river. He
said Herbert Cook, whom he was
with at the time, really believed he
had drowned"
He said the water chilled him, and
he clambered on board a tug and
made his way ashore; that he went
home, changed his clothing and
walked to Montesano that night. Sat
urday morning, he bought a logger's
outfit and took the train for Olympia.
Here he borrowed $35 from Husk to
travel on, and requested him to keep
silent for few days concerning him.
1t appears that McClish had a
faculty of borrowing money from his
acquaintances, and that he used 1t
to the limit in Aberdeen, becoming
so hopelessly in debt that he con-
templated escaping his folly by sui.
eide. A dive into the chilly waters of
the Wishkah river cured him of this
idea, and he decided to try a new
field.

ABERDEEN WINS
CHAMPIONSHIP
High School Team, Defeating
Hoquiam, Takes Champ

Two games of basket ball in this
city Friday night decided the county
championship in favor of the Aber-

boys defeated the Hoquiam boys by
score of "a to 16. Aberdeen took

loyalty supported by large delega-
ton from their city, the Hoquiam
boys failed to successfully meet the
onslaughter of the local team. The
game was good, and as the score in

The husky lads from Satsop, who
have looked like pennant winners all
through the season, lost to the Aber-

CITY ELECTIONS
ARE NEXT WEEK
Ward Campaigns Quiet In
terest Centers in Con-
test for Mayor
WORKERS OUT FOR JOBS
Air Full of Rumors Social
lists May Rally to
Jacobs Support

With the last week of the municipal
campaign, the various candidates are
straining every nerve for the last
lap OF the race. In the different wards
the councilmatic contestants are pur-
suing quiet but effective course, and
each is sure winner, according to
the talk of his friends.
The mayoralty race is being hotly
contested by j. A. Hood and Eugene
France, while Jos. Jacob and Judge
Pearson seem to be making no open
effort. AS the office of mayor carries
with it some appointive patronage, it
attracts the not altogether disinter-
ested ward workers who are putting in
supposedly good licks for the man
they believe will ladle out the mun-
cipal soup.
These workers are blamed with all
sorts of rumors as to who has been
promised this office and that by the
different candidates, all of which may
be accepted with the proverbial grain
of salt. So far as the Herald can
learn, the candidates have Woodrow
or we should say President-Wilson
beat mile on reticence on the SUBJ
ject of probable appointments.
So far, the campaign has been con-
Quoted along decorous lines. The abb
surd reports one hears on the street
are usually the product of the mind
of the workers-with an eye on a
job.
At present writing the race for
mayor seems to lie between Hood and
France, but, as a wise old politician
remarked to the Herald yesterday,
Keep your eye on Jacob" His view
was that our Socialist misunderstanding
no contest at the primaries-would
swing their vote for Jacob, figuring
that they could deliver 300 or 400
votes that way. This, with three 9th
er candidates in the field, it is said,
would give the nomination to Jacob.
Then, should an Independent candi-
date be named on the night of the
primaries, of which there has. been
some talk, the Socialist candidate
would land the office of mayor with
his opposition divided. This view is
given for what it is worth. AS said
above, one can hear almost anything
about the candidates, and all of them
must be taken for what they will as
say.

ASSESSING BY
A new METHOD
Assessor Wiley Goes After
Inventory in Business
like Manner
TALLIESLUMBER ANDLOGS
Men Of Experience in Various
Lines Assigned to Those
Branches

County Assessor r. A. Wiley in
troduced an innovation in the assess
ment of timber products on Grays
Harbor Saturday, when he had seven
teen experienced tallymen tally the
lumber in the yards of the various
saw mills at Aberdeen, Hoquiam and
CosmOpolis, and taking inventory of
the quantity of logs in the booms for
assessment purposes. Some of the
millmen were surprised at the pro-
ceeding, it being entirely unusual, but
as a rule they accepted the situa-
tion good naturedly when assured
that every other class of property in
ChehaliS county was to receive a
similar treatment. The return of
lumber on hand on March 1, is said
to be many times greater than ever
before in the history of Grays Harbor.
On Sunday, Assessor Wiley and
Chief Deputy A. c. Girard cruised the
Hoquiam and Chehalis rivers, assess
ing the logs in transit and at the land
tngs, placing valuations on 80 RATS
in all. Assessor Wiley has a large
number of deputies in the field, and
the work will cost more than usual
this year, but when it is complete it
inventory of the property in the
county in the office of the assess
or as it is possible to make.
In this effort to place all property
on an equal basis for taxation pur-
poses, deputies have been selected for
the various lines of merchandise who
are familiar with those lines. For in
stance, Clyde Davidson, the Aberdeen
grocer, will assess the grocery stocks
in the county, while Joseph Jacob, the
well known shoe merchant, will size
up the stocks of shoes, dry goods and
clothing stores, goods with which he
is PERFECTLY familiar, and so on down
the line. The plan of Mr. Wiley will
undoubtedly swell the assessment
rolls of Chehalis county, but should
occasion no increase on taxes, as the
levy can be made much lower than at
present. In fact, it should reduce the
taxes of the average citizen, through
the placing on rolls much property
that is generally believed to have es-
capped wholly or in large part in the
past.
For more than twenty years, Che.
halls county has born the unenviable
reputation of being the mecca for tax
dodgers, and il Assessor Wiley, and
the county board of equalization,
should succeed in removing this stig-
ma it will rebound to the credit of
the county as we'll as themselves, and
will prove the wisdom of the organiza.
ton year ago of the Chehalis County
Taxpayers League.

JURY FIXES
LIGHT PENALTY
Police Court Jury Refuses to
Send Woman to Jail While
the Man Goes Free
SECRET TRIAL RESENTED
Irene Mitchell Is Fined One
Dollar, and Jury RENTS
Its Fees

The trial of Irene Mitchell, one of
the two women arrested in the Cres.
ent hotel with Myrtle Patterson,
Frank c. Wheeler and J. M. Brews.
ter, charged with disorderly conduct,
took place in the police court Fri
day afternoon, and had rather a
strange termination. For reasons yet
unexplained, the trial was held be-
hind closed doors, though nothing
more salacious developed than is
heard almost daily at the sessions of
this court. So noticeable was this
departure from the usual custom that
but for the objection of one jury
man it would have been referred to
in the verdict.
Jury Wants Square Deal
Irene Mitchell told the story of
the night in question without reser-
vation, telling of the joy ride of her
self and companion along with the
two men, a little supper after re-
turning and the adjournment to the
room in the hotel, and made no de-
MEL of the charge booked against
her. Wheeler was in court as
a witness against the girl, and Jur-
or J. w. Young asked the court why
he was not on trial, and was inform
ed that, having forfeited his bail and
the case against him had been allow
ed to lapse.
The jury was out but a short
time, and the verdict showed their
frame of mind. They resented clos
ed doors to protect the companion
in guilt while the girl was to be pun
ished, and refused to make her pun
ishment a particle greater than their
oaths actually required. The verdict
was, of course, guilty" but the fine
was fixed at one dollar and costs, and
the jury donated their services in
order to tighten the costs. The Jury
was composed Of ]. w. Young, Geo.
Acret, G. B. Reid, T. D. Darragh, A.
H. Marsh and H. H. Carter.
