DOCTOR BEACH BLAMES
RAILROAD COMPANIES
Claims Failure to Deliver Iiuuo,
Caused Him To Lose $12,255
Profit.

DR.. w. M. Beach of Shelton, pro-
prietor Of the Shelton Pharmacy, filed
suit In the Thurston county superior
court Thursday against the Southern
Pacific company a corporation and
the Oregon, Washington Railway and
Navigation company, asking for dam
ages totaling $12,255.
In his suit filed, DR.. Beach alleges
that on November 10th, 1917, he
secured permits through the proper
channels to have shipped to him from
San Francisco to Shelton, 1000
quarts of liquor to be delivered in
80 days from the date he secured his
permits. The company from which
he purchased his liquor in San Fran
cisco declare they had the liquor in
the hands of the railroad company
Immediately. The liquor was de-
livered by the railroad company to
Olympia after the thirty days which
the permits had allowed elapsed, and
was seized and destroyed by the city
officials. Doctor Beach alleges this
liquor would have net him a total
of $10,102 sold at the price specified
by the law.
He further alleges that on May II.
1918 he secured permits to purchase
drums of liquor in San Francisco
which also underwent the same pro-
cess of slow delivery as he alleges
on the part of the railroad and seiz-
ure and destruction by the officials
causing him loss of $2,153. He
therefore has filed suit for the two
amounts which he alleges he lost
through the carelessness of the raj.
roads.
The case will be heard before
Judge John M. Wilson, the date not
not set as yet. Doctor Beach will
be represented by Attorney Thomas
M. Vance.

The Public Service Commission of
Washington received the following
letter from the California Commits
sion and heartily endorses the senti-
ment expressed by Commissioners

from e. D. Edgerton, president Of
the California Railroad Commission
in recent address before the League
Of California Municipalities, com
posed of city officials.
The compassion takes city officials
who make misstatements seriously to
task, declaring that, Notwithstanding
substantial increases in rates. there
has been no profiteering in utility
service in California, and that the
states Industrial progress depends
upon an immense increase in the
facilities or the companies preforfn-
ing public utility service, which ex
pressed in money means Investment
of several hundred million dollars in
the next few years. He said there
Is no power to force Investment in
securities of those companies, except
through adoption of sound policy
which insures the investor that his
property will be dealt with fairly and
intelligently.
You who are the official represent
tatives OF the municipalities, have
very serious responsibility, he said.
1T is your obligation when you adj

Only pity can be felt for the kaiser

able of responsible impression, believes
that this man, who is spiritually torn
and shows it in his body will ever
play an active role in any form what
soever. BY the grinding experiences
of war, the blow of a breakdown, ana
worry about his future which con-
stantiS torments him. the deeper traits
of his viii arc dulled
In tho opinion of the correspondent,
the former emperor has purchased
Doom House as proof that he has
given up all thoughts of returning to
Germany.
He no longer expresses the wish
to return to Germany" says the
writer. He believes Germany is lost.
More than ever he believes he has
been betrayed by his councillors and
the whole people,"
The former rulers letters are CEN
sored by the Dutch authorities who
are declared to be not inconsiderate
and not, naturally severe. The cor
respondent makes an appeal for the
former emperor saying 1T depends
upon Amerongen being left quiet and
forgotten. The last affront that
threatens it's resident can thus be most
easily avoided"
