SPOILS .IN "FAMILY
Spokane's Democratic Mayor
Had Son on City Payroll.
FATHER GIVEN GOOD THING
Oldest of the Daggetts Given Munici
pal . Accident Insurance Busi
ness, 'While Grandson Drew
Pay as an "Engineer."
SPOKANE, Wash., June 19 (Special.)
The Daggett family draws from the city
treasury of Spokane at the rate of more
than UWO a year, although tue salary of
Floyd Daggett, the Democratic Mayor, is
only J2300. This fact was brought to light
by "investigation into the affairs of the
City Engineer's office.
The Engineer's estimate became top
heavy, and it was decided to lop off a
squad, of employes. The discovery was
made that Gordon Daggett, the 18-year-old
son of the Mayor, was on the roll as
an "engineer," at $110 a month. Where
the young man learned civil engineering
does not appear, but anti-administration
wags say he is probably a "political engi
neer." Boss Engineer Mclntyre, who was
given his job by the Mayor, says Gordon
is a good one and he hopes to get him
on again.
Following up the money-making and
salary-drawing methods of the Daggett
family, a search of the books today dis
closed that the father of the mayor, P. A.
Daggett, who is in the insurance and
bonding business,' has -dipped into the
city's strong box to the extent of writing
the accident insurance carried by the mu
nicipality on the lives of city workmen.
The premiums paid so far this year to
Daggett the eldest total about J825, ac
cording to City Commissioner Roy.
By the month, the salary and emolu
ments of the Daggett family total about
$37, and the hungry and jobless Demo
cratic office-seekers are angry at what
they believe is an unfair "hogging" of the
spoils.

Their Papers.
SALKM. Or., June 19. (Special.) The
State Board of Optometry, created by the
last Legislature for the purpose of regu
lating the practice of fitting eye-glasses,
has not had plain sailing in its efforts to
enforce obedience to the law. The latest
difficulty arises from the refusal or neg
lect of some of the optometrists to file
their licenses in the offices of County
Clerks.
In answer to an inquiry from the Board
of Examiners, Attorney-General Craw
ford has rendered an opinion in which he
holds that if a licensee refuses to file his
license, the board may declare it forfeited,
as the law fixes the forfeiture as one of
the penalties for neglect in this respect.

Out of Harmony,.' Says Trustee.
SALEM. Or.. June 19.-(SpeeiaJ.) It is
asserted In most positive terms by men in
position to know, that Professor Drew's
activity in enforcement of the Sunday saloon-closing
law was not the reason for
his dismissal from Willamette University.
President Coleman has refused to discuss
the subject or answer any questions rel
ative thereto, but a member of the board
of trustees is authority for the statement
that Drew was let out because he was out
of harmony with the management of the
institution.
The assertion that Drew's prosecution
of the saloonkeepers had nothing, to do
with his retirement is supported by the
fact that he was re-elected a year ago,
after his campaign against the saloons,
which was two years ago.

Tnconta Council, However, Will
Probably Pass Saloon Ordinance.
TACOMA, June 19. (Special.) Mayor
Wright today vetoed the second saloon
ordinance which was passed by the Coun
cil last Wednesday night as a substitute
for the first measure, which had also met
with the Mayor's disapproval. He says:
, "First I believe resident owners in a
block where a saloon is petitioned for
should be consulted, and not nonresidents.
"Second The section prohibiting fe
males from serving liquors would drive
such hotels as the Tacoma and Donnelly
out of business or cause them continually
to violate the law when serving liquor in
their dining-rooms.
"Third It is contrary to the spirit of
Tacoma to prevent the Pacific Brewing &
Malting Company, from having one or
more bars.
"Fourth and last I believe it to be tin
lawful to prevent restaurants from having
boxes. The rest of the ordinance I do not
care anything about."
It is believed that the ordinance will
still become a law, as 11 votes, the neces
sary two-thirds, were cast for .Jt last
Wednesday night.

pective routes, and when they have de
cided on the best one will have elimi
nated at least three dangerous curves

APPEAL BY STATE
Jewett Land Fraud Case Be
fore the Supreme Court;
FAULT IN THE INDICTMENT
Lower Court Sustained Demurrer on
Argument of Defense That Facts
Alleged Were Insufficient to
Constitute a Crime.
SALEM, Or., June 19. (Special.) The F.
W. Jewett land-fraud case was tried in
the Supreme Court today, the state being
represented by Uistrict Attorney J. H.
McNary and Deputy C. L. McNary. and
the defense by W. D.Fenton and F. V.
Hoi man. This case was unusual In one
respect that the state has appealed. It
is very rarely that the state is appellant
in a criminal case, but in this instance the
case went against the state on demurrer
to the indictment, and the District Attor
ney appealed.
The objections raised by the attorneys
or the defense are that the indictment
did not allege facts sufficient to constitute
a crime; in other words, that the indict
ment omits some allegations necessary to
constitute the crime of subornation of
perjury, with which Jewett was charged.
Jewett is the Minnesota man who In
duced young women in Salem to make ap
plications for the purchase of state school
land and assign the certificates of sale
to him as soon as they were ' Issued by
the clerk of the State Land Board. t
It is alleged that the indictment is de
fective in seven particulars, the most im
portant of which is that it Is not alleged
that the applicant knew the affidavit was
false, or that Jewett knew it was false,
or that Jewett knew that the applicant
knew It was false. The attorneys for the
state aver that these allegations are suf
ficiently made, though not In exactly the
language for which the defense contends.
It was chiefly upon this point that the
arguments were made In the court below,
and it is generally supposed that It was
upon this point that Judge Burnett sus
tained the demurrer and . dismissed the
case. "
While District Attorney McNary Is mak
ing a hard fight in support of his indict
ment, it is understood that he will not
consider himself finally defeated, , even
though he should lose this case on appeal.
He believes that it is not yet too late to
bring in another indictment, for, although
more than three years have elapsed, Jew
ett has been out of the state most of the
time, and It is asserted that the statute
of limitations has not run log enough to
bar a prosecution.
It may be that a new indictment has
already been drawn and filed and is being
held from the public in anticipation of a
possible adverse decision of this case. The
indictment now in question was filed se
eral months before it became public.
