which has steadily tried to put damper on those
explorations at every opportunity, is now, at the
time when it seems an oil field is about to be
proved here. jumping into the field with loud
fanfare of trumpets and endeavorng to grab the
business benefits that will come from proven
field. The noise doesn't 'cut any ice,' as we
used to say years ago; while this neghboring city
is stirring up its own racket, we sincerely hope
that Olympia is laying it's plans to get the full
benefit Of this great opportunity, if it does develop

currency plan before it was adopted, that Cover
nor Hamlin not only made an excellent impression
but also explained the details and purposes of the
new system in such way that his visit was most
opportune In other words, he converted what
ever doubling Thomases" there were among the
bankers of the Pacific Northwest.
During the course of his addresses Governor
Hamlin pointed out the differences between the
old Wall Street system which produced the 1907
panic and the new plan and explained most clearly
and assuredly how there could be panics
of the 1907 variety, a bankers panic He spoke
of the financial scare last fall when the European
war broke out and demonstrated by the re-adjust-

$4,000 DAMAGES
Mrs. John Dillon Sues SaIoonkeep.
ers For Causing Death Of Her
Husband.

Attorney J. H. Collins of Corunna,
has started suit in the circuit court for
$4,000 damages against Harry Colby
and Philip Vending. proprietors of the
saloon at Rattle Run, and their bond
ing company alleging that liquor sold by
the saloonkeepers caused the death of
John Dillon of Hazelton township
Dillon was found lying badly injured
in the road near his home in the early
morning last March. He was taken to
his home where he died two weeks later
of his injuries without recovering con.
sciousness. The family demanded an
examination believing that Mr. Dillon
had met with foul play Doctors who
were called by Coroner w. E Cornford
of Corunna, expressed belief that Dill.
Ions death was due to injuries sustained
in falling out of his buggy. The fam
lily was of the firm belief that Dillon
had been assaulted and robbed and en-
ployed q Burns detective, who uncover.
ed nothing of value in determining the
cause of death.
The evidence showed that Dillon had
obtained considerable liquor at Rattle
Run. the saloon just across the line in
Saginaw county the night before he
was found.
There is much feeling against the
saloon at Rattle Run, especially in New
Lothrop. Many of the younger element
there, it is said, obtain liquor at Rattle
Run. Three arrests were made at New
Lothrop last week by the county Of
ficials all growing out of the Rattle
r Run traffic, it is alleged.
