THE DlCEBOX RETURNS.

Either as an experiment, to see how
it would be received. or as a bluff, to
create the impression that it is no
afraid of the law, the dicebox has
made its appearance upon the coun-
ters of cigar stores and the like. 1t
came back. The date of it's arrival was
coincident with the advent of the new
year and the beginning of a new county
administration, This may have been
merely a coincidence. There are plenty
of folks who are willing to say that
they do not believe it was merely this;
but let us believe it was until we are
shown that it was not.
h question is not as to the wisdom
of the law which forbids the dicebox
along with other gambling devices. 1t
is sufficient hat the law does forbid
the dicebox. The law is plain. Last
year the county attorney gave warning
that it would not be permitted. There
is no excuse for the violation of the
law; there is nothing to be said in ex-
1enuation of the violation. If the dice
box is to be permitted, the law must be
repealed. The law is clear upon this
point. The duty of the officers in the
matter admits of no circumlocution or
evasion.

The legislature takes a weekend
rest. Until Monday there will be moth
ing doing in the legislative halls. There
are two days of rest. But they will be
busy days unless we are mistaken. The
events of the opening week of the SEES
sion make it certain that there are
strenuous times ahead, and that the
men who are on the job will have to
stay there all the While if they expect
TO accomplish anything.
1t was a good start, however. The
message of the governor laid down
plainly the duty of the legislature and
showed clearly what the state expects
of the lawmakers. 1t is now up to the
members of the assembly to make good.
There is strong opposition to the full
fltlment of platform promises; this
much has developed already. on this
account the men whose purpose is to
make good will have to keep working
all the time. They may be assured
that the other fellows will V rest,

sorry note for $500 for his services.
The sixth charge is that he used his
influence as a judge to induce the
Lehigh Valley railroad to buy a tract
of coal land.
The charges which relate to his SER
vice as district judge are equally inter-
estlng. One relates to the payment Of
his expenses to Europe by a railroad
official who was likely to be interested
in litigation before the court. An
other has to do with forced loans he
is alleged to have negotiated. Another
charges him with having appointed a
railroad attorney as jury commissioner
and allowing him to serve in both ca
pacities.
The contentious Of the attorneys for
Judge Archibald have not been that he
did not do the things charged against
him, but rather that he did not do
them with criminal intent. They con-
e that an impeachment lies only
for offenses which are properly the
subject of a prosecution by Indictment
and information in a criminal court.
The managers of the house contro-
vert this doctrine, and assert that an
impeachment proceedings is a pro-
ceeding to determine whether there
has been a breach Of good behavior"
In the case of judges, and that there
is a long line of precedents showing
that 1mpeachable offenses are not
necessarily indictable o%ffenses.

There has been an Albania for
many centuries, and the country has
a stirring and romantic history, but
it has never, for m period, had a po-
sition of it's own among the independ-
Europe. Early in the last century
that renowned and terrible warrior,
Ali Pasha, the Lion of Janina,' made
Albania virtually Independent for a
time, but his death ended this freedom.
Now there is every prospect that on
the eastern shore of the Adriatic sea,
Immediately north of Greece, a state
will be placed on the maps which will
start with probably 5000 square miles
of territory, more or less, and a popu-
lation Of perhaps 1900 900. 1t depends
upon how generously the boundary
lines may be laid out and how little of
Albania shall be given to Greece, Ser
via and Montenegro, three countries
which the Albanians detest.

FIRE AT FINLEY LEAVES
CLAUSE FAMILY HOMELESS

The residence of VIM. Clause, at
Finley, was totally destroyed by fire
Wednesday night. The house was
of five rooms, and was burned after
midnight, and while the family were
absent. Mr.. Clause had left town on
business, and his wife and daughter
spent the night with a neighbor,
waking to find their house in smok-
ing ruins.
The origin of the fire occurred in
the afternoon when Mrs. Clause was
at work at the stove. She had been
frying doughnuts, when the hot
grease caught fire. The daughter
ran for a neighbor who squelched
the blaze with patent extinguisher.
Evidently a spark was left smolder-
ing which burst into flame after Mrs.
Clause and her daughter left the
house.

MUST WAIT 8
YEARS LONGER
If Proposed Bill Passes House,
Prosser Will be County Seat
Until 1920

Any further county seat fights in
Benton county will be prohibited
until 1920, according to terms of
Senate Bill 1877, passed by the senate
and now up for final adoption in
the house.
At the same time this bill, if en-
acted, will prevent any repetition of
the incidents of the last county seat
fight by bringing in as contestant
such community as Benton City.
Phe measure limits contenders for
county seats to incorporated cities
of the first, second, third or fourth
class, repeating the provision, which
allows any village to become a can
didate.
The bill, which was presented by
the senate committee on cities of
the first class, is intended to prevent
county seat fights in the main. It
was sent to Olympia by former Sen
ator Davis of Grant county, to head
off a threatened resumption of hos
tilities there.
The measure provides that the
qualified electors to the number of
45 per cent of those who took part
in the last election must file a petit
tion with the county commissioners
at least 60 days prior to their Oc-
tober meeting. ALI signatures must
be obtained within 80 days of the
time of filing and each petitioner
must write also the postoffice ad-
dress, ward or precinct if in city
and the date of signing.
On the ballot the bill provides,
the present county seat shall come
first and other contenders come in
the order of the filing of their petit
ton. The bill gives any taxpayer
the right to enjoin the proposed re-
moval on account of any irregularity
in the proceedings and finally
changes the present law to provide
that after failure to move the seat
of government, no other attempt
may be made to do so for eight
years.

Tomorrow's School Election De-
velops Considerable Action
Board's Affairs Criticised

Tomorrow afternoon will be held
the annual school election to choose
a director for term of three years.
Far from the quiet affair which at
first it promised to be, the cam
paign has developed surprising life
and candidates for the job have been
bobbing up in all quarters. During
the past day or two, however, the
contest has narrowed to a field of
three, consisting of R. G. Mounsey,
present incumbent; E. O. Keene.
who is backed by the Highlanders;
and 1. N. Newkirk, of Section Seven
the Socialist candidate. All Of
these have announcements published
elsewhere in this paper.
One rather unpleasant develop
ment of the campaign is the digging
up of the report of the state exam
iner, who checked up the affairs of
the district last August. This re-
port, which has never been made
public, covers the period from July,
1905, to August, 1912, and harshly
criticises some of the methods ofa
counting and also some Of the ex-
penditures which have been made.
The report reads, in part:
"Of the thousands of warrants is
sued in payment of school expenses
since the organization of School
District No. II, including thousands
of dollars expended in the construc-
ton of three school houses, there
are now less than 800 stubs on file
with the records of the school dis
trict. There has been shameful
neglect in complying with this part
of the school code. No financial
exhibit of school district finances
couldgby any possibility be prepared
solely from the records of the school
district clerk
The report also calls attention to
the illegality of warrants drawn in
payment of $4,000 attorneys fees
to Moulton and Henderson in Aug
ust, 1911, and of travelling expenses
allowed the clerk, amounting to
something over $4,000 for several
trips taken in connection with school
affairs during 1910. 1911 and 1912.

OVER WATER COMPANIES
Rowland Bill Would Have Irrigation
Companies Bound by Terms Of
Public Utilities Law

Having the water code off his
hands, Representative H. K. Row
land of Benton county has jumped
into another fight. this time to bring
irrigation companies under the su-
pervision Of the public service COM
mission. The Benton county man
introduced Bill COZ for this purpose
on the final day for introduction
last week.
This promises to open another
struggle worthy of the name. Last
year when the public utilities law
was'enacted, it was proposed to give
the public service commission full
power over irrigation companies,
the same as other corporations serv-
ing the public. The provision was
eliminated chiefly through the fight
made against it by Representative
Elmer E. Halsey of Asotin county.
In Asotin county they were fearful
that the public service commission
would step in and allow local COM
pany to raise it's rates.

bring the irrigation companies un
