This firm was organized in Salem In 1913, and operated a mill on Trade street between Church and High, turning out Its first barrel of flour on January 1 that year. At that time the firm was known aa the Cherry City Mills. In 1919 a consolidation was effected with the Capital City mills, with a new cor poration known aa the Cherry City .Milling company, and the entire plant was moved to the buildings of the Capital City company nt Church and Trade, the building de stroyed last night. The building. It is aald, was constructed about the year 1903. Tho payroll was esti mated at about J1C0O a month. Adding to the confusion and ex citement caused by tho fire was the activity of resident in the neighborhood who hastily remov ed their household goods from their homes. Thb Is said to have been a wise precautionary measure, for had the wind shifted it is doubtful if any of the buildings on the street south of tho First Methodist church could have been saved. Streams of water were still be ing played on the ruins this morn ing.

Necl making Auto store during his short visit In this city. Ever slnco Franklin has Joined the force of the accessory company his car and its equipment have been the subject of much discussion among all thnt have had tho good fortune of seeing It. The car Is claimed to be the best equipped sctut car In the country. Everything has been provided for and no expense has been spared to' make It such a car. From bumper to bumper and side to side It has every article of equipment needed the motion. In making the motion to quash the detent? advanced fourteen reasons, tea of which alleged the act forming Iho basis of the indict ,mcnt viol.i-cd various provltions of the Tennessoj constitution ind the constitution of the United Slates. Of the others one set 'or.lt that the Indictment Is so vagus as not to Inform Ihu defendant of the nature and cause of the accusation gainst him." Law Held indefinite. A second claim said that the statute upon which the Indictment is based is subject tu the same in form ity because li Is so indefinite aa not to enable the defendant to know what is forbidden and there fore amount, 4 to a delegation by the legislature o? power to courts and juries to determine what act shall ho held criminal and punisn- ahle." "There, is no legiHlatlve warrant for tho delegation of such power to the courts and Juries of the state," It was arsertcd, and aid ed that "tho act violates tho wlnl- spirit of both tho stalo constitu tion and tli o constitution of tin United Statin and against the P'Jl icy of tho law." Section 17, arti cle 2 of the plate coiiHtitutinn was violated, it was declared.

' Mr. Neal delivered the first ar gument of tho defense against the motion elaborating the points out lined In tho motion. Mr. Neal said he regarded tho claim of the de fense that the religious freedom of tho people was invaded by the act aa tho most Important contention. During Mr. NeaPa argument, tho attorney general moved that tho jury retire. Attorneys Clnh This developed a mild clash be tween Attorney General Stewart and Clnrencc Oar row. Mr. Darrow at first said "wo do not object." Mr. Stewart replied "It doesn't matter whether you do or not. The court Ifl the Judge of that." After i( general exchange of comments from attorneys, Dudley Field Ma lone nnd Arthur Garfield Hays, tho court ordered that tho jury be permitted to retire. "Wo know the legislature repre sents the majority in Tennessee but wo represent, the minority," .said .Mi. Neal In concluding. Arthur (J. Hays followed in speak ing for the defense, applying him self at the outset to a discussion of the Indeflnitenefis of the law, bp he saw It. He devoted hlmsolf to the words "tench" and "theory" in the act of the legislature, declaring that the language is indefinite and fa 11k Hhort of clarity In saying how far a teacher can or cannot go. He also claimed the act is not proper under tho police power of the state. He read a hypothetical statute he would have the legisla ture enact prohibiting the teach ing ot heliocentric theory and m.ik lug the punishment death. The speaker claimed that the evolution theory was established as reasonably tin the heliocentric the ory. "An unreasonable restriction up the liberty of the citizen." - lie aljo asked the court to re serve his decision of the motion to umish until 1 had hoard the evi dence In the case. He suggested tho court and Jurors needed to be Informed on the subject of evolu tion, the Itltde and other things. I-'ormer Attorney General Hen G. McKen.ic made tho first argument for the wtate, defending the con stitutionality of the act In ques tion. BOARD WILL CONSIDER DUPLICATED COURSES Tort land.

Griffith's Master Picture umfisisii Washington, July 13 t AP) Ttates on grapes, peaches, apricots, pears, plums and cherries from California to all ' portions of the United States lying eastward, were held to be reasonable and fair to day by tho interstate commerce couiniit.sion. Complaints of California fruit growers, In which the California railroad commission and various trado organizations In the state joined, in seeking a rate reduction, wero dismissed. The rate on tho deciduous fruits named were alleged in the com plaint to bo unfair as compared with the rates on apples. From California to the Mississip pi valley ant. all points east rail roads now make a rate of $1.73 per hundred pounds on the types of fruits considered, while to west ern territory, of which Denver lh tho central point, the existing rate is $1.62. The California demand was for a rate of $1.44 to apply both to Denver territory and the balance of the United States. $135,000 LOSS SUFFERED BY LOCAL PLANT (Continued from page jne) Juet across the street from the mill, all the paint on the south end of the house being burned off and most of the windows broken by the heat. Smaller buildings In the Wells wood yard, to the rear of the residence, were damaged. A build in" owned by T. Vt. Kay on Winter atreet, a block away, was slightly damaged. Telephone and electric light poles near the mill were charred from top to bottom. Destruction of the mill cuts off an annual trade that ranges from $350,000 to $500,000. The former figure, says Mr. Geiser, more ac curately represents the trade at the present time. Sales from the mill are mainly In Oregon, with a large trade In Portland aH well ais all other western Oregon cities. Some export business has been done with foreign countries, but none this season.
