STATE MAY RETIRE
ALL ITS BONDS NOW
FINANCE BOARD SEEKS LEGAL
AUTHORITY TO CARRY OUT
LISTERS PLAN.

Governor Listers plan of retiring
the only outstanding state bonds that
are charge against the general
finances of the state-the $2O6,024
normal school bond issue-may be
carried out without awaiting action
by the next legislature.
State Treasurer Edward Meath, as
chairman of the board OF finance, has
asked the attorney general for an OFF,
cial opinion on the question of
whether these bonds may be retired
without legislative assent, and II a
favorable opinion is received, the
bonds will be called Immediately.
The bonds were issued in 1909 with
the provision that they might be re-
tired at any time after five years and
within IL years, at the option Of the
state.
The present excellent condition Of
the general fund, which has cash
balance of $1.257 900. will make pos
sible the retirement Of this debt with
out inconveniencing the state in any
way.
II these bonds are retired the only
outstanding state bonds will be $751;
900 Wenatchee bridge bonds. These
are not a charge against the general
assets Of the state. but only against
the highway fund. However, Cover
nor Lister will recommend that the
next legislature take steps to retire
them. which will leave the state en-
tirely free Of bonded debt and will.
in the governors belief, tend to deter
the state from incurring debt in the
future, unless necessitated by extraor-
dinary circumstances.

MENTION LOCAL JUR|sT
As POSSIBLE CANDIDATE
Superior Judge Mitchell Talked Of as
Good Timber for State Supreme
Court.

With the report current and gen.
orally accepted, though not officially
stated, that Frederick Bausman. the
Seattle attorney who was appointed
by Governor Lister to succeed the
late Judge Crow, will not seek cleo
ton next year. political gossip is con-
cerning itself with other likely candi-
dates.
The governors appointment runs
until after the next general election,
when a jurist, either the appointee
or someone else, will be elected. In
this instance, the unexpired term to
which man will then be chosen is
four years, Judge Crow having been
elected only last year to fill six
year term. In connection with the
trend OF political gossip and the
rumor that Bausman will not seek
election, the State Capitol Record, in
it's last issue, spoke of Superior Judge
Mitchell of this city as possible can
didate, adding:
"The friends Of Judge Mitchell as
sert he should be on the supreme
bench now. as he has record OF
being one of the best judges ON the
superior bench of Washington and
the leading attorneys of the state de-
light to try cases before him. He
will remain on the Thurston and
Mason county superior bench just as
long as he pleases, as down in this
district it is not likely that anyone
would consider seriously running
against him. Judge Mitchell is a
Democrat, but that doesn't bar the
Republicans from supporting him en-
masse."

BUSINESS MEN RESENT
BIG TYPE AND RED INK
Chamber of Commerce Trustees
Unanimously Object to "Scare-
head Publicity.

Trustees of the Olympia Chamber
of Commerce do not like the SCARE
head" publicity the city has been re-
ceiving in certain quarters during the
past week, and said so when they
authorized the following statement
by Secretary H. l.. Whiting. after a
meeting Tuesday afternoon:
"At their meeting this afternoon
the trustees of the Chamber made
the publicity Olympia has been re-
ceiving throughout the state their
whole topic Of discussion. I am au-
thorized to state that to q man those
present greatly deplore stories pub
lished Of late which connect any
prosecutions for vice that have come
to light within the past week or two
and the probability that certain
fund or funds of the industrial insur-
ance has been looted.
"The Chamber Of Commerce trus-
tees feel that revelations Of the past
few days as to conditions found In
certain circles Of the city do not war
rant such wild speculation az they
have received. while the effort to form
a chain Of circumstances Of these and
any embexzlement Of state funds has
been termed highly imaginative.
"The trustees further resent any
insinuation to the effect that there
ever was any Wholesale attempt OF
organised movement in Olympia re-
sponsible for the taking Of any funds
that might have been stolen from the
Industrial insurance commission.

ECL|PSEO
BY OTHER THINGS
WATERWORKS SITUATION CHIEF
ISSUE OF WEEK IN MUNICH
PAL CAMPAIGN,

So many other things have been
happening this week that Olympians
have had something else to talk about
besides the city campaign and local
politics has suffered an eclipse to that
extent. The situation with reference
to the waterworks project has been
the chief issue of the week, though
the arrest of former Chief of Police
Ben Hall on a graft charge caused
much excitement.
A day or so after the announcement
of the supreme court decision declar-
ing the increased bond issue illegal,
G. B. Mann, the Republican candidate
for mayor, issued statement declar-
ing that the question of 100000
bond issue should be submitted to the
people at once, while Mayor Mottman
and his followers, refraining from
any public statements until all legal
points were adjusted, set about right
away to see to it that the question
was submitted to popular vote at the
earliest moment legal restrictions will
permit.
This necessitated conferences with
Seattle and New York attorneys for
the bond buyers, and ended in the
passage of an ordinance by the coun-
Gil at an adjourned meeting Wednes-
day night, proposing that the people
vote ON $4,000 bond issue at a
special election December II.
