We would like to know what
John Rathie and Owens, are go

only one crime, that a man can
be hanged for and that is rirst de
gree murder. These boys have
murdered no one. True, they
might have premeditated or plan
ned to escapti prison but they hav?
never killed anyone and what is
puzzling to a large number of peo

Drainage District Plan
Is Revived With Flood
"I never saw as heavy a frost
back in the polar belt east of the
Rockies," said W. C. Gregory,
speaking of the beginning of the
bad weather at Seattle, when he
visited the Sound inetropolis last
week.
"We drove up to attend the in
terstate convention of ics cream
manufacturers. Tuesday and Wed
nesday were good days, but on
Thursday morning Seattle had the
heaviest, whitest frost that I ever
dreamed of. It was almost like a
snow storm. Over at Tacoma, 35
miles away, it was a slush all over
the streets. We drove home in the
one day, however, by starting in
good time. The 255 miles isn't
too bad for a good Ford. Hut it
was frightfully cold; all the blan
kets we had were not enough - a
full set of Arctic furs, and a
heater to boot, would have been
none too much.
"The delegates from all over
the northwest reported a general
resumption, of normal business
condtions. The scacre is passing,
and everywhere there is a chance
for sober, hopeful optimism to op
erate. .It did look a bit discour
aging, however, to see 4 7 govern
ment shipping board ships tied out
in the harbor, rotting just as fast
as they can, because their is
either no market for them, no
crews to sail them, or no business
for them to do. Perhaps it's a
good thing to take them to a place
like Seattle, where the salt fog
gives them a fine chance to rust
and rot quickly and end the
misery.
"But they were a good invest
ment, at that. Every ship helped
to-win the war, by showing how
tremendously the country was in
earnest. If they give 'em away, or
sink 'em, or let 'em go down at
their anchorage, they have paid
their way and are ready to be
wiped off the slate. Seattle has
been desperately hard hit by the
6lump in shipbuilding arrd ship
ping, and ahs lost many thousands
of her war-time population. Its
citizens look on these idle ships
with a more mournful eye, per
haps, than the mere landsmman to
wnom a ship is not much more
than a plow or a house to be
used or diseased as the season
goes. It's the life of the shipping
city, and Seattle can't get used to
these dead ones.
"But still, they're coming back
in a business way; indeed, they're
cheerful, which Is a vast revolu
tion after what they've had in the
last year or two."
The recent flood has again em
phasized the peed of drainage In
the large area of country lyng
southwest of ! Salem, inc'uo;ng
some of the land owned b tne
state and much owned by the city
of Salem. A law was passed at the
legislative session of 1919 allow
ing the organization of drainage
districts for land so owned and
the organization of a district was
for some time in contemplation,
but the plan lapsed. Since the re
cent flood there have been signs
of its reviving, and Percy A. Cup
per, after another survey of the
situation following the flood, has
furnished additional data to the
committee which has had the pro
posal in hand.
