COURT HOUSE
ROW ON AGAIN

A fresh outbreak IN tho lonsstsrd
ing legal battle between Prosecuting
Attorney Malcolm Douglas and Pre-
siding Superior Judge Austin v.
Criffiths occurred Saturday when
Douglas filed a motion for dismissal
OF counter grand jury indictment
against tho county commissioners
and Capt. John l.. Anderson. lessee
OF the county ferry system.
With his motion for Dismissal
Douglas also filed an affidavit OF
prejudice against Judge Criffiths
aud asked for change OF venue.
Judge 0riffiths announced In
answer TO Douglas question that
he would take the matter under ad-
visemsnt. This. Judge Griffiths
later explained. referred only TO the
petition for change OF venue. II
was pointed out at tho court house
that Judge Griffiths may. II he
chooses. suspend action for 30 days,
as the statute allows him this
length of time TO render n decision.
The commissioners and Capt. An
derron are charged in this indict-
nent with grand larceny. II In al

sold on the idea. When the
traffic managers 0f the various
roads were In Seattle last winter
they were permitted 20 View the
effects Of the chambers promo
tion, with the result that they
were convinced that the railroads
should follow suit.
The railroads attention to the
chambers advertising campaign was
first attracted by the advertisements
themselves ir national magazines
and newspapers. Later the chamber
turned over TO them the names OF
thousands OF people In all parts OF
the United states who had inquired
about this section OF the country In
response TO The ads. The railroads
Themselves then took up the work
and endeavored to interest inquirers
