ABERDEEN AGAIN
IN N. W. LEAGUE
Assured Of a Three Year
Term and Fair Treatment
In All Things

With President Dugdale of Seattle,
Bobby" Blewett, president of the
Northwest league, and James S. Barnes
who had been here several days, pres
ent at a meeting of the Aberdeen fans
Sunday afternoon, it was tentatively
decided that Aberdeen will take the
Ballard franchise Aberdeen will be
guaranteed at least three-year term
Of baseball. With $4,000 pledged and
guaranteed to be forthcoming, COM
mittee was appointed to raise an ad-
ditional $4,000 necessary to meet the
terms of the Barnes proposition.
Dugdale and Blewett gave Aberdeen
the promise of cordial welcome and
fair treatment. 1t is confidently believ-
ed that $4,000 will be raised to put
the team on good financial basis.
Montesano and Hoquiam were repre-
sented at the meeting and these cities

ASSESSMENTS
Superior Court Decides Ag-

Improvement Contest

AONTESANO. Jan. 11.-Judge Ma
son Irwin has found against the City
Of Hoquiam, and in favor OF the East
Hoquiam company and the Harbor
Land company in the Riverside ave
nue. paving district case. This means
the district win have to be reassess-
ed. The. firm Of Morgan & Brewer
art attorneys for the plaintiffs. The
decision says:
Il find the assessment in the case
is void for two reasons in particular.
First, that the cost Of the improve
ment, or proposed improvement, is
considerably in excess of the assess
ed valuation of the entire property
included within the assessment dis
trict. Second, that the assessment has
been made on fundamentally wrong
basis, in that some of the property
is assessed upon front foot basis
and other of the property upon a
square foot area basis. The plain
tiffs' lands are assessed upon front
foot basis. the lands of the East Ho-
Quiam company extend back on an
average of only 30 feet or less from
the line Of the street; and that prop
erty is assessed the same as prop
erty of other persons extending back
the full 12O feet.
81 consider that the assessment in
the district must be uniform, i. e.,
all property must be assessed in the
same way and upon the same basis.
and that some property can not be
assessed per square foot area and
other property per front foot"

amount of stamps is not affixed.
No Tax on Quit Claim Deeds.
The commissioner announced that

pected to investigate where he sus.
poets violation of the law, he should
in such case notify the proper revenue
collector. A quit claim deed is not
subject to the tax, nor are oil leases

case any such bill is not stamped.
The law, 1t was explained, does not
apply to shipments by parcel post,
Street railways are subject to the re-
quirements when they accept goods

BOLD HOLD UP
LAST NIGHT
Two Masked Bandits Hold
Up South Aberdeen Gro
Gerry Store Last Night

Last evening, about o'clock, two
bandits held up the Eklund grocery
store, en- Marion street, South Alb.
erdeen, and in the presence of seven
men, compelled Mr.. Eklund at the
point of a gun to give up the contents
of the till, about SIS.
The men are described as from 80
to IS years of age and each nearly
six feet tall. The man with gun wore
a long slicker coat and the other a
gray 'overcoat. Neither wore masks.
There were so many witnesses to
the robbery that the police have a
fair description of the men. and this
morning received information leading
to the belief that they had gone down
the bay, and posse left just before
noon on a launch to overtake the sus-
poets.
