COUNTY SEAT
Two Accused Murderers in

Lamentable Cases
EAGLES HAVE BIG TIME

Night. Mill Tax Cases Have
Been Set for Trial

MONTESANO, May 1.-two rather
lamentable cases are in the county
Jail in the persons Of Otto Miller,
who murdered the man who had be-
friended him in Elma last week, and
George Bradley, the young man ac-
cused of killing a Greek at the Aloha
mill some time ago.
Miller is little better than a glib.
bering IDIOT at times, and again ap-
pears to realize the awful crime he
committed, and is pitiable at all
times. Bradleys father arrived here
Saturday from his farm in Montana,
and 1T is said will do what he can
to defend his boy from, according to
all accounts, what was the result of a
fight.
Assessment Cases Set.

the personal property taxes of 1918.
have been set for Monday, May 25,
that is they will be commenced at
that time, and week or more will
be required to hear them.
1t will be remembered that the mill
companies several months ago began
action to restrain the assessor and
treasurer from extending the valua-
tions fixed by the assessor on the
rolls, and the court ruled that the
officials could not be restrained; that
the rolls must be made out and their

HOWARD EXONERATED IN
might RIDER" CASE.

SOUTH BEND, May 14.-Judge
Ben Sheeks, of Montesano, sitting
for Judge Wright, Tuesday afternoon
directed verdict for J. N. Howard,
in the first of several famous North
River night riding cases, in which
Howard was being tried for arson.
The Jurors, without leaving their
seats, brought in verdict for the
defendant. This will probably end
a neighborhood quarrel at Brook
lyn, which already has cost the tax
payers of this county upwards Of
$4,000. The other cases against nine
might riders" may be dismissed, as
well as that against Earl Ross for
telling tree upon the cabin Of Mrs.
Laura Nanderpool. Abel Bros, at
torneys of Montesano, handled the
defense.

PROJECT WAS
NOT ABANDONED
Frank H. Lamb Writes Com
mercial Club of Board of
Engineers Action

Frank H. Lamb, chairman of the
Grays Harbor Port Commission, and
a mepber Of the committee from the
harbor to Washington, d. c., has writ
ten letter to the HoQuiam CONNER
cial club, giving the results Of the
hearing on the north jetty project
before the Board of United States
Engineers. Mr.. Lamb, after saying
he expected to reach home next Mon.
day, said:
From the notice of April 4, l
think We were justified in thinking
the board intended to drop Grays
Harbor We started out our talks
taking this attitude for granted. They
soon corrected us, saying it was not
the intention Of the board to aban-
don, that they were only undecided
as to just how to proceed next and
wished more time to observe the re-
suits of the present jetties. They
only gave US one hour and stated at
the outset that they wanted to hear
nothing about commerce, as they
were fully familiar with our COM
merce.
$50 it was a very simple PROPOSE
tion. They readily agreed that the
present jety should be maintained
and wired Cavanaugh as to amount
needed. He replied $4,000. They
agreed to recommend that amount
at once. We then went direct to the
chief of engineers, Col. Taylor, (who
was chief of construction believe
on the south jetty). He was equally
as agreeable and said he thought
rather than to put in a written rec
ommendation he had better go before
the senate committee personally and
urge the appropriation.
Senator Jones says there will be
absolutely no trouble in the senate,
and they also say that the house
conferees will undoubtedly allow the
matter to stand.
II believe that only a large war
appropriation that would cause rigid
economy in all other lines will inter
fere with our plans.
II took up with Congressman John.
son your proposed invitation to Sec
retary Lane. I hope we can secure
him. l did not see how I could do
anything personally in the matter.

The Routine Business Light.

The regular business of the session
was light, and seemingly almost for
gotten in the forsenic battles, and
may be summarized in the following:
The appointment of Miss Agnes
McGillicuddy as assistant city treas
urer was confirmed, leaving the mat
ter of her bond up to the city at;or-
ney.
An ordinance was ordered drawn
providing for 16-foot plank road
way on Thornton street between
Sumner and Simpson, to cost $51s.
The council decided to enforce
clause of the contract for the sec
ond fill district to collect $50 day
for every day the time limit for
completing the work is passed. Mayor
France has called meeting to dis
cuss the fill district proposition at
Finnish han Saturday evening.
Joseph Thomas was given permis-
sion to erect a store building On
Heron near N StreeI.
AS two-thirds of the property own
ers of Thornton street between Fifth
and Sixth streets petitioned for
hard-surface pavement, the street
committee recommended the petition
be granted. 1t was approved.
The protest Of three-fourths of
the property owners on Heron street
west of Washington against building
sidewalks in connection with laying
the hard-surface pavement, was acted
upon favorably.
The building inspector reported The
valuation of new building permits is
sued during April totaled $10,175
Loaded vehicles crossing the trestle
between the Wilson mill and Stand
ard Oil company's tanks must not be
heavier than allowed by ordinance to
use the pavements of the city, accord
ing to action taken.
The total department expense for
April were. $9,431.60.
Contractors Hunley & Henry were
ordered paid $1005' due them for
work on the reservoir.
Contracts were entered into with
the Chehalis County bank and the
United States Trust company as de.
positories for city money.
Permission was granted to builG Il
tank for crude oil in the alley back
of the new Patterson-Devonshire
building, Heron and Broadway. The
streets must be placed in the same
condition after installing these tanks
as they were before.
Councilman Sawyer called atten-
tion to the condition of portions Of
Michigan avenue and Hume street,
and asked that something be done to
remedy the same, inasmuch as some
funds had been withheld for such
purposes.

CONTEST FOR EMPTY HONOR BRINGS ON FIGHT
Presidency of Council Shows New Body is
Evenly Divided. Park Scheme is
Up AGAIN. Routine Business

The meeting of the city council
Wednesday night in point of excite
ment has scarcely been equalled in
the city since the memorable repub-
fican state convention of 1912. Two
points of contention arose, in the
course of which it is safe to say that
every member believed he was right
and defending the city from-some-
thing or other.
The two propositions, upon which
the new city council revealed unal-
terable determination is, both
sides did--was over the election of
a president Of the council and the
Stewart park proposition, which was
reintroduced at the meeting.
II any evidence was required that
the system that permits the unseemly
wrangle of Wednesday night was a
thousand years behind the times this
would have been convincing. The
time of the city solons was occupied
in discussing various rules Of parli-
mentary procedure in the choice oil
an official entirely without emolu.
ment or patronage. The President OF
the council acts in the absence of the
mayor, and, Mayor France is entirely
too vigorous to permit the anticipa
tion Of his demise in time to do the
present president of the council any
good in the way of succession.
Still, the fight was on, and wen
on. There was two candidates fol
this empty honor, J. M. Empey, from
the Fifth ward and J. w. Fraser O
the Second. Empey was absent from
the city. The opposition in favor O
Fraser was six to five, counting al
ways Fraser voting for himself, {
questionable procedure he might no
have been guilty Of was 1t not fol

the deciding voice, and that it wa,

up again; and was the cause of con
siderable discussion, in the course O
