EVERYBODY is
DOING IT;CAS co.
TO BOOST RATES


OLYMPIA, Sept. is.-They're all
doing II.
Now comes the Seattle Lighting
Co. with an application TO the pub
lie service commission to boost the
price OF gas TO Seattle consumers.
so as to raise approximately $20.0
a month more than now. This boost.
according to Attorney II. II. elise. Is
necessary on account of the in
creased cost OF oil. coal and labor.
The company asks for two
changes:
First, to change the present rate
OF sl.25 a thousand for the first
5000 feet, with a discount off for
prompt payment OF 25 per cent.
The new schedule is to be S1.15 a
thousand, with no discount.
Second. to charge % cents 4
month to every consumer for the
use OF the meter. This is to be
called a service charge"
The company figures that from
5000 10 1000 consumers of a total
OF $4,000 who use less than 81 worth
OF gas month will quit gas and in
stall city light. Nevertheless. the
aggregate increase will easily take
care of this particular loss.
According TO elise. the gas COM
panys earnings are less than 3 per
cent upon its property valuation. al
made by the public service commits
sion in 1918. With the inreased
cost OF material and labor since
that time, the company, he declares.
IS compelled to seek ligher rates.

WELLS LOSES
OPENING ROUND
IN j. S. COURT

Motions to dismiss two
counts OF tho Indictment
against Hulet "A. Wells and
Sam saoler. made by Attorney
George r. vsnderveer sstur-
day, for the four eo-dcfendants,
were denied by Judge jeremiah
Neterer IN federal court Tues
day morning. Judge Neterer
allowed the motion TO dismiss
the fifth coun, OF the indict.
ment In the case OF Aaron Fis-
lerman and r. G. Rice.
Following denial OF the motions
by the court, the defense moved
that the remaining count. the
third. which charges the defend
ants with conspiring TO obstruc'
the execution Of law. be stricken
from the indictment. The court
denied the motion.
Anna Louise Strong, member OF
the Seattle school board, was the
first witness called by the defense
following Vanderveer's opening
statement
She was not permitted 10 answer
questions showing her relations 70
the American Union against mill
tarism. with which the defendants
we're connected.
"The fact that the defendants
have kept good company on other
occasions does not necessarily
point TO the fact that they were
not guilty on the occasion In ques-
ton" Allen said.
In his opening statement. Attor.
ney Vanderveer reviewed the his
tory of the American Union against
militarism and other local organi.
zations that have been opposed to
war. beginning at the time of the
preparedness agitation in June,
1916. He said that many promi-
nent men all over the country had
identified themselves with that
movement. and aided In the organi-
zatlon OF local bodies for the
spreading OF propaganda. He de.
clared that activities against the
draft were harmless combinations
OF this same propaganda.
President Wilson himself and
ex.Attorney General Wickersham
voiced their opposition to war not
so long ago" he said Just why
these men are national heroes now
and the defendants in this case are
criminals is beyond my comprehen-
sion"
Vanderveer stated that the de-
fense would prove not only that
Wells and the other defendants did
not attempt 10 oppose conscriptlon,
but that they had advised their
friends to register and obey the
law.
