INSTALLATION OF METERS
BEGINS IN COLVILLE

The installation of the new water
meters in Colville seems to have Civ
en- impetus to the watering of lawns
and other activities which demand
water, for the citizens seem to
think they can't afford to use much
Of this liquid substance after the
meter system is fully installed July
the first. They seem to think with
the "wets" that "after the thirst of
next July, after July the thirst"
Others are more optimistic about
the financial result of the new sys-
tenn. About 100 meters have al
ready been installed at a cost of
but one or two dollars apiece. The
work has been done by the : city
under the water commissioner, c. O.
Smith, the Colville Plumbing Co.
and James A. Williams. Those who
have had the meters installed have
found that they are using approx
mately a dollars worth each month
This is about 5000 gallons.
The meter system will not go into
effect until July l and after that
date collection will be made accord
ing to the meter readings. One
immediate effect Of the proposed
change is that property owners are
stopping up leaks in their piping
systems. The city will have an OPP
portunity to discover leaks in it's
pipes also, for by comparison with
the amount of water going over the
weir and the readings of the meters
any wastage will be found.

until such time as they can be per-
manently disposed of, which in our
judgment is expensive and unsatis-
factory. Therefore, we would rec
ommend that some steps be taken
by the court and county commits
sioners to provide a suitable place
for their detention, by building a
small annex to the Jail or court
house. And we further recon-
mend that a proper and sufficient
salary be allowed for your probation
officer, and sufficient amount for
the expenses of this officer, in order
that the office may function look
ing to the best interests and well
fare of the dependent and delinquent
children in Stevens county.

Urge Increased Road and Bridge
Fund Levies-Say Juvenile
Court Important

Colville, May rs, 1919-To the
Hon. D. H. Carey, Judge of the su-
perior court, and the Hon. Board of
County Commissioners, Stevens
county:
Sirs-We, the committee of jurors
of May term of the superior court,
in our investigation of court and
county affairs, recommends:
l. That the lighting system in the
courtroom be changed to an indirect
system to better tighten the room
and have softer light.
2. That three awnings be placed
over windows back of jury box; also
wedge windows to prevent rafting.
8. That place be rented some
where in the city when court is in
session for the jurors and bailiffs
during trial of criminal cases.
4. That place be built for pro-
lection Of implements belonging to
county.
5. That drinking fountain be
placed on first floor of courthouse
for public in winter
6. That the levies of the general
road and bridge fund and the dis
trict road and bridge fund be raised
to maximum limit, or such part as
board may deem necessary
7. Jail reported satisfactory.
8. Recommend that we, as jurors,
were all pleased with our treatment
by bailiffs, and our meals and lodg-
ing at Hotel Colville were very sat
isfactory.
9. (a) That site of county poor
farm be changed from present loca-
ton to old fair grounds, and pres
ent poor farm be sold or rented
(b) That there be erected at once
suitable building for housing said
county wards at fair grounds, and
that said buildings be fireproof and
include a hospital for county pa
tients, and also for tubercular pa
tients, and that all buildings be of
firepro0f construction, and provided
with sufficient fire escapes, stair
ways and elevator. (c) We find
present building at poor farm to be
fire trap with insufficient stair
ways and fire escapes, and no fire
protection whatsoever. (d) Pres
ent management of poor farm under
system now in vogue, considering
surrounding circumstances, good.
Found house clean and inmates sat
isfied with treatment, as far as we
could ascertain. (e) That one
chronic paralytic at poor farm be re-
moved to Colville General hospital
for better convenience in caring for
same.
10. We find that the county clerk
and county auditor have insufficient
vault room, and recommend that the
building or vaults be remodeled to
allow more vault room for the coun-
ty records.
II. We find that the juvenile court
is one. of the most important de-
partments of our court procedure.
We find that the juvenile court as
sisted by the probation officer has
been in the past conducted in very
satisfactory and economic manner
considering the means at hand. We
find, however, that there is in the
county no place provided for the
temporary detention of dependent
and delinquent children. That the
court and probation officer are OBJ
liged to detain these children in
hotels, lodging houses or restaurants

History of Minute Women Shows
Organization Efficient Unit In
Winning War

Approximately $50 medals manu-
factured from captured Hun common
and issued by the treasury depart
men to workers in the Victory loan
campaign, have been sent out to
Minute Women in Stevens county
this week by their chairman, Mrs
l.. c. Jesseph. The work of the
Minute Women officially ends with
the fifth loan and brief survey of
their activities since their organiza-
ton in Stevens county in the spring
of 1918, shows that it has been a
most efficient unit in the winning of
the war.
Thirty-two communities in Ste
vens county were organized by Mrs.
Jesseph beginning in the month of
February, 1918, each town having
its captain and lieutenant Minute
Women. Most of the captains APP
pointed served throughout the re-
mainder of the war, ready and will
ing to go at any call of the govern
ment.
Three Liberty loan drives, Red
Cross drives, w. S. S. campaigns,
Food Administration work, Child
Welfare work and United War work
were the chief activities of the
Minute Women during the war and
every time they undertook task
they carried it to a successful close.
1t has been estimated that about
1870 of the Liberty loan sales in
the county were made through the
efforts of the women workers. Mrs.
Jesseph is deserving of much credit
for the manner in which she has
handled the leadership of the Minute
Women.
The pledge taken by each Minute
Woman before accepting the Minute
Woman's pin as as follows: "Rec-
ognizing Americas great need for
loyal service from every citizen, |
accept this pin as token of my
enlistment in the Minute Women of
Washington. If ! give up the SER
vice in less than six months, | agree
to return the badge; also that | will
not wear it after | have ceased to
be an active member of the organ
ization."
House house canvassca have
been the means Of accomplishing
much of the work done by the or
ganization. In this, special credit
is due the women of the rural dis
tricts as the work in this county
was particularly difficult because of
the scattered population and inaces-
sibilty of some of the districts. In
some places the workers hiked for
miles to reach isolated dwellings in
the mountainous country. Some
times the Minute Women rode horse
back to make their canvasscs.
When conferences were held the
interest and enthusiasm of the coun-
ty Minute Women were shown by the
large numbers who attended. AT
the conference held previous to the
Victory loan campaign, it was dis
covered that more women than men
workers attended and that they
came from considerable distances to
attend the meeting.
That the experience has been an
educational one to them personally,
is the statement made by many of
the women workers. They have
had to study the needs of the gov
ernment in order to explain them in
the homes which they visited. They
have learned to talk to others in an

intelligent and forceful manner and
have learned to cooperate and work
with the other women for a common
good. In their visits to homes in
their town, the Minute Women of
Colville found surprising conditions.
They found that in some homes, in
stead of having money to loan their
government, the people were in act
ual need of bread and butter. 1t
gave the workers an idea of Great
ing a closer bond between them
selves and their neighbors in the
same town, SO that they might bet
ter conditions.

An executive order recently issued
by the president amends the federal

RETURN IF PEACE TO
 WORLD |S HAILED IN WASH|NCT ON 4TH
Parade and Pageants Ob- serve the Day Present War Medals-Newest Ma tions Represented in Pan tomime
ERenubIIoan A. P. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, July 4.-Return of world peace was the dominating spirit of Washingtons celebration of Inde- pendence Day. Pageantry in which the calls of industry and other civilian occupations to returning soldiers and sailors were displayed, and a parade in which all of the nations arrayed against Germany and Austria were represented, were the features of the observance.
 Seven pageants were given late in the day on the lawns of department and other public buildings. These pantomimes were merged into a great pageant entitled "The Offerings of Peace" which showed the peoples of the world, having passed through the horrors of war, returning with courage and anticipation to the pursuits of peace.
 Embassies and legations of all the allied and associated governments had floats in the parade which moved down Pennsylvania avenue from the White House to the capitol The newly formed nations of Czecho- Slovakia, Poland, Lithuania, and the Serbs, Greats and Slovenes, were represented.
 The South American republics es- pecially were prominent.
 Members of the cabinet, other high government officials and thousands of citizens tonight heard chorus of sev- eral thousand voices sing national and patriotic songs to the accompaniment of the United States Marine band on the steps of the capitol
 Present War Medals
 Early in the day Secretary Baker and Admiral William S. Benson, chief of naval operations, acting for Secre- tary Daniels, presented service medals on behalf of the District of Columbia to residents of the district who served with the colors during the war. Besides soldiers, sailors and marines, those receiving the medals include the bat talion or yeowomen and the battalion of ''Marinettes'
 Presentation of the medals was fol- lowed by the administration of oath of service and citizenship to 51 young men and 51 young women, representing the states of the Union and the three | territories. The oath, administration of which Secretary of the Interior Lane desires to make in the future nation wide feature of the celebration of h. | dependence Day, was as follows:
 Tn enter into American citizenship with this pledge made before my fel- low citizens: That the rights and pow CTS given me by this country shall be used that the people of America shal the more perfectly enjoy the benefits l of free institutions and increasingly | present to the world the strength anC l security which comes from a high re- l gard for the rights of others"

SAYS HOLLAND WILL

 ID ALLIED TRIBUNAL
Dutch Official Does Not Quite Agree, However - Name British Judge - To Make Formal Demand Soon

LONDON, July 4.-The allies. ac- cording to The Daily Mail, have re- ceived assurances that the Dutch gov ernment in the last resort will not re- fuse to surrender the former German emperor for trial.
 The newspaper says that the neces- sary formal objections doubtless will be raised to maintain the rights of Dutch sovereignty, but as the demand for his person can be made in the name of the League of Nations, ma tional rights will not be infringed and there is no doubt the Dutch govern ment will be quite ready to get rid o1 her unwelcome guest.
 It is not considered likely, the Mai continues, that the matter will come before the Dutch courts, despite cer- tain statements at The Hague.
 The chief count in the former kaiser's indictment. The Mail understands, vii be his action in causing violation ot Belgium and Luxemburg. The pro- ceeding will be conducted in English but a translation will be made into sev- eral languages simultaneously
 LONDON, July 4.-John Andrew Hamilton, Lord Sumner, will preside over the five judges representing the United States, Gerat Britain, France Italy and Japan at the trial of the former German emperor, according tC the Evening News.
 Sir Gordon Hewart, solicitor genera of Great Britain, will lead for the pros ecution. William Hohenzollern, it i: said, will be defended by German coun. sel, assisted by British lawyers, if ht wishes them.

The Holland Viewpoint

AMSTERDAM, July 4.-There is nothing to prevent the former German emperor or the former crown prince from leaving Holland at their pleasure, according to a high government author ity at The Hague, quoted by the Am sterdam Telegraaf correspondent. If either of them should leave, the official quoted said, the surprise of their de- parture would be unpleasant, both for the Dutch government and the Dutch people"
 Should there come a demand, how ever. for the former kaiser's extradi- ton" the official said in an interview. and should he then want to depart suddenly. it is possible he would be prevented. He can, according to the law of extradition, be arrested at the request of foreign government, but a demand for extradition must be made within a certain period.
 "Extradition is subject to a number of restrictions, formalities, and guar antees Should there come a demand which is technically, and in that the government must first obtain the ad vice of the tribunal under whose legal jurisdiction the prisoner wanted is re- l siding. Amerongen being in the de- partment of Utrecht, the tribunal Of that department would have to decide whether the former emperor should | be extradited.
 ''The former kaiser must be heard by a tribunal The hearing may take place en camera and at that hearing ht should be represented by counsel Within fourteen days after the hearing the tribunal must inform the minister of justice of it's decision, whereupon tht government would act"
 The Telegraaf correspondent says the Dutch government intends to ad here strictly to judicial point of view and ito put it mildly, it is very doubtful whether the extradition would be per
