Been Temporarily Insane.

Temporarily attacked, it is be-
lieved, with form of religious in
sanity induced by attendance upon
revival services held in the school
house near his place, prompted a
farmer named Etka to attempt to

slashing his throat with a razor, after
returning to his home near Rainier

came when his wife found him lying
behind their house, suffering greatly
and weak from loss of blood. He

in the right side of his neck and
hemorrhages resulted from the cut
ting of the outer jugular vein.

PROBES PARROTT PAPERS.
Yantis will Investigate Affidavits
Filed As Basis for New Trial.

Affidavits intended to prove that
Joe Parrott, recently convicted of the
murder of Fred Weiss near Gate June
3, was in Snohomish, 140 miles away,
that day and in Seattle the following
day, filed this week by c. E. Collier,
PARROTS attorney, in support of a
motion for a new trial, will be care
fully investigated by Prosecuting At
torney Geo. F. Yantis.
Two affidavits, one signed by the
proprietor of Snohomish lodging
house and the other by Seattle hotel
manager, would indicate Parrott was
far away from Gate on the day of the
murder, though the prisoner was pos
itively identified during the trial by
Gate residents. Another, signed by
Parrott himself, claims that, at the
time of the trial, he did not know the
dates or places he had been early in
June nor the names of witnesses who
could testify for him.

ROAD CREWS FIGHT FIRES.
State Employees Often Stop Work on
Highways to Protect Forests.

That state road crews often have
to become fire fighters. stopping work
to head off threatening fires in the
forests, and that they are successful
in this is attested by a letter State
Highway Commissioner William R..
Roy has received from r. l.. Fromme,
supervisor of the Olympic National
forest. complimenting the highway
department on good work done by j..
Coyne and a crew of state road work
ers in controlling a serious fire on
the Quilcene-Brinnon section of road
in the Olympic forest.
United States Ranger G. A. White
head wrote Supervisor Fromme that
camp fire left by hoboes in the
vicinity of Coyne's camp got into the
timber and under great headway. A
passing automobile notified Coyne Of
the fact and he lost no time in put
ting his men on the job TO prevent
serious consequences.

MAN WHO SHOT YOUNG
GATE RESIDENT ESCAPES
Authorities Have Good Description
Intended Victim RecOv.
ering.

Who it was that shot Emil John
son, Gate resident, near a barn on
the John Anderson farm Monday
night, has not been learned by the
authorities of Gray's Harbor county,
who are handling the case, so far as
local officials know, though excellent
descriptions of the man, a stranger
who had been seen lettering around
that neighborhood during the day,
have been furnished.
Latest reports say that young
Johnson, who, 1t was at first thought,
was seriously wounded by the revol-
yer shot in his shoulder, is recovering
nicely. He was member Of party
Of Gate people who went to the vicin-
ity of the Anderson farm Monday to
assist in fighting forest fire. He
had left his motorcycle in the Ander-
son barn and had started to join the
rest of the party when he saw a
strange man enter the barn.
Becoming suspicious, johnson went
back to the barn to see who the man
was and what he was doing, and just
as he entered the doorway he was
fired upon and fell to the ground,
wounded in the shoulder. While the
other members Of the party ran to
Johnson's assistance, his assailant
escaped through the rear Of the barn
and has not been located. Johnson
was taken to a Centralia hospital,
after his wound had been temporarily
dressed, and the bullet was removed
Tuesday.
The shooting occurred about Is
feet across the line in Gray's Harbor
county, the Anderson farm lying in
the two counties, and consequently
the case is being handled by the
Gray's Harbor authorities.

ATTACKS DRY STATUTE
Olympia Brewing Co. Seeks to Have
It Declared Invalid.

Coltending that the votes cast for
and against the prohibition law last
November did not equal one-third OF
the total vote cast at the election or
one-third of the total vote cast on all
initiative measures, as required by
the constitution, attacking the valid
ity of the initiative and referendum
amendment, and asserting that the
"dry" law is discriminatory. the
Olympia Brewing company is named
as plaintiff in a suit filed in the local
superior court Wednesday against
Secretary of State Howell, Attorney
General Tanner and Prosecuting Al
torney Yantis, in another effort to
have the law declared invalid.
While the attack on the initiative
and referendum amendment, adopted
in 1912, is made on practically the
same basis as former suits, new
angle Of attack is taken on the prohl-
bition law itself, stress being laid on
the two points, that the number OF
votes cast did not come up to the
constitutional requirement and that
it is discriminatory in that. because
forbidding the manufacture OF beer
in this state for either local or export
trade, it permits breweries OF other
states to sell their product here
This, the complaint declares, Is IN
violation of the state and nationai
constitutions, the federal section cited
being the one which prohibits states
from passing laws favoring industries
in one state more than another. Other
points are also raised.
The case will probably come on for
hearing some time this month. In
the former suit attacking the dry
law, Judge Wright held the prohibl-
tion amendment constitutional. and
notice of appeal to the supreme court
was given.

COUNCIL SCRAPS ABOUT
POLICE FORCE CHANGES
ResCinds Action of Committee in Dis
missing Dodge and Fires
Ganfleld.

Star chamber" methods were
used by the city councilmen this
week to settle differences among
over a racket brewing in
the city police department due to
what various councilmen claimed
was an unwarranted assumption Of
authority by the police committee,
and in the regular council meeting
later, after they had gotten to-
gether," the councilmen quietly
directed that Patrolman William
Garfield, brother-in-law of Chief Ben
F.. Hall, be dismissed and Daniel
McReavy, who has been off the force
for some time on account of sickness
be reinstated.
The racket in the council started
when the police committee. Council
men Hord, Yauger and Talcott. in
structed Chief Hall to dismiss Patrol
man Herbert Dodge and put Nc
Reavy back on the force. This was
done Monday. Some of the other
councilmen objected, claiming that
the committee did not have authority
IN take such action but that it rested
with the council. They also protest
od n the dismissal of Dodge.
When the matter came up IN the
"st,r chamber" session prior TO the
regular meeting Wednesday night 1t
was finally settled by the councilmeh

halls River Site,

B. F. Littlejohn, A. NJ. Rowe and
T. Ives Dodge, commissioners of
Thurston county. together with w.
H. Yeager, jr., county engineer, also
j. B. Kirkaldie and E. S. Hubble,
commissioners from Gray's Harbor
county, and the county engineer,
George D. Robertson, together with
several prominent citizens from Oak
vile and Independence, made a per-
sonal inspection Tuesday afternoon
of the proposed new joint road and
bridge site across the Chehalis river
at Independence, which has been
under consideration for some time
by the commissioners of the two
counties.
They readily admitted the road
would not be difficult nor expensive
to construct, and the bridge site to
be a very good one. They found
many interested citizens at the bridge
site when they reached the river,
some of them settlers who have been
anxiously waiting for this bridge for
the last 20 years. They have asked
for it many times before only to
have their wants forgotten; now,
when at last there seemed some hope
of their wish and need being brought
to a realization, they were on hand
to express their qualification.
Mr.. Sawtell, one of the early set
tiers of the independence section,
now quite an old man, stated to the
officials he did not expect to live
great many years longer and that he
hoped to see the bridge built and the
road completed, as it would probably
be the last work he would ever ask
them to do.
This new road will cross the Che
halls Indian reservation, comprising
many acres of very choice river bot
tom land, and will bring new set
tiers to both counties. There is some
settlement being made on the res
ervation now, that is on the west
portion of it, near Oakville, where
there are good roads, but it is diff
cult to get new settlers to locate.
even on good land, unless they have
good roads.
Those interested in the project be-
lieve that the building of this road
jointly by the two counties could be
accomplished at this time without
working a hardship on either county
and say it would be a great benefit
to many farmers living near Gate,
Rochester and Independence, adding
that a community cannot grow and
reach it's highest state of develop
ment when it is bottled up as Inde-
pendence now is.
While no definite statements were
made by the commissioners, it is
thought, when they have considered
the matter in official meeting, the
people of Independence will not be
forgotten.

agreeing that Garfield. who took Nc
Reavy's place on the force and was
the new member, should go to make

was made by Councilman Eshom and
supported by all the councilmen ex-
cept Forstell and Ramberg.
