The fact TOM WEBB MAKES MOTION FOR [is there are no obstructions to either NEW TRIAL ON FIRST AWARD OF JURY The final installment of awards to farmers in the Skokbmish main val- ley, covering those with more or less remote riparian rights, was brought in by the jury at 6 o'clock Thursday evening, approximating from ten to twelve per cent, depending on prox- imity to the river. Following are the awards in detail: Chas. Olson $525, A. L. Bell $1100, Karl Rose $1250, T. G. Garrison $2182.50, Marion Smart $156, George Dixon $125.50, Fred Bell $1262.50, Jean Todd F'redson $170, Harw De- yette $600, Robert Johnson $800, V. Roberts $607, Warren Lincoln $340, • T. Richert $1268, School District No. 43 $450, W. A. Hunter $3360, Blanche Bell $200, J. Jemison $450r-L. Pfundt $137,50, A. Pfundt $112.50. Two new features to break the rou- tine of the proceedings were the,mo- tion of Tacoma's attorneys for the discharge of the jury on grounds that they were being in, properly influenc- ed, which was denied by the court, and the motion of T. W. Webb for a new trial on the award made by the jury in his case. The cases in progress are some- thing new in the state, if not the !the Olympic highway or the Navy 'Yard highway and the roads are at their best condition throughout. There are two detours around paving work on the highway between Olympia and Shelton but neither are ver.v bad and being short only cause slight delav in time. It is expected that travel will be cared for at all times during the summer, and until the two paving contracts are completed.' MRS.

George Franz on his place of 43 acres on which the average figure placed by various appraisers was around $3000, was allowed $175 as damages. On the George Webb 80 acre tract cov- ered in the same verdict no award was given, doubtless because the land was not occupied or any part in cul- tivation.

The jury deliberated about three hours before returning to court Thursday evening. Friday morning the next of the series was taken up involving the T. W. Webb and Mrs. Georve Camer- on farms, the two lar'est 'cultivated areas in the valley. The experts on both sides gave their testimony as to the probable effect of diverting the fresh xater,, of the river, both places being more or less subject to tidal influence, as well as conditions which concern the farms further up the valley. Experts Agree on Values The appraising experts for the de- fendant farmers as well s.those em- lOyed'by Tacoma did not vary much the estimates made as to farm alues in the Skokomish valley, and in some instances "the latter even gave larger figures than the farmers laimed. The average of the esti- mates on the original Webb farm of 550 acre, was around°S60,000, and that for tz'e Camer farm of 240 acres reached $25,000.'"' • These two cases reached the ju;/ ;Friday evening and that bodv soon returned with an award of $2200 for T.

L'. BLL Contractor Mallory has begun the erection of a tile office building for A. L. Bell on grounds facing Fourth street, between Railroad and Cota streets, and the foundations have been laid in readiness for the build- ing material, due on the next trip of the 'car ferry. The building will be 82x32 feet in size, one story, with a nine-foot Ceil- ing, and will be divided into two office rooms, one of which will include a vault and Will be occupied by Mr. Bell for his abstract and realty busi- ness. The estimated cost of the building is $3t000. This makes the fourth building of the better class, of brick or tile','for Shelton already this year, and it is still early in the season. Although considerable home improvement work is now under way, and several new homes are being talked oft no new buildings in that much needed direc- tion has so far begun. With lumber and materials heap and plentiful and labor lower than for some years past the time is ripe to supply some of the badly needed new homes in Shelton.

PICKING )UR BONES . .. 1 " Something of a "tempes "na teapot has develop- eel in Tacoma and a boycott declared against Seattle because the latter city.seems to have stolen some of Tacoma's thunder in a publicity way. Tacoma's business men go further than refusing to ])lay in Seattle's backyard, they won't send more of their goodmoney than can be helped to build up the big siste city and are boosting the trade-at-home idea to a fare-ye-well. The boycott follows a long series of petty griev- ances, of which stealing the name of the pet moun- tain that never was "Tacona," broadcasting the news that the Todd shiplaunching was in the Seattle dooryard, and sawing down some obsolete signs along the highways pointing Tacoma-ward. Of course, it makes the loyal citizens of must burgs sore--at least some citizens--to have a lot of little things like the above rubbed in by the elder sis- ter, whether intentional or not, and it must be admit- ted that ther are thoughtless, not to say small, peo- ple in the world, in the big cities as well as the small towns. Perhaps the action of Tacoma's business men might offer some cue to us down in this section of the state, where many of our people feel that they are victims of the greed of that city,, which is per- letting its plans to fatten from what httle picking is left on our bones. The big cities grow still bigger by subsisting on the smaller communities within reach, and their workers are daily combing the fields outside to gath- er up the small bits of trade or business which go to build up still larger business and industry in the cities and throttle the trade and business which lnean the life of the small community having at best a hard struggle for existence. There is mor in this tade-at-home idea than many realize--this extracting of as much substance from/the dollar as possible before it rolls away from the little community to the big city, where it goes in the end. All the small town ever gets out of the 'dollar at best is what is "sweated" from the coin while it may circulate among the townspeople for labor or supplies, and labor is the greatest benefic- iary. After all, we can hardly blame our big city friends for taking advantage of us because, like taking candy from the-baby,--it's so easy. The operation is usual- ly pleasant, if the after-effect is not, because we lJac-count 7 people feel that we are pretty smart ourselves. However, when the comnunity is not helpful and considerate of. the rights and interests of otherslt can hardly be expected to STOW, or even retin:'the substance it has-and in the end' allare '\\;, hurt. ':But it is well to pl/tce all ,blame where"it be- longs--on ourselves. --For instance--Lake CUshman powe, .... . ......

SKOKOMISH HORSES CARRY OFF HONORS ON PRAIRIE SUNDAY OAKVILLE NATIVES ALSO LOSE IN ANCIENT INDIAN "BONE GAME." CONTEST HELD OVER W I'3EK-END A series of {ndian horse races, ar- {'alged between owners :l'Oln the Sko- 0ni,h and OKkille 'reservations, brought a touch of old times to Shel- ton prairie Sunday and attracted a cons'iderable crowd to see the sport, ow amos, pass, ed in this section. For some time past eac!, tribe has been claiming the best horses and the races were to settle the qu.stion as well as old sco,:es, aud incidentally swap a little coin. Those who wit- nesscd the races say thatjhey were iuteresting as each side crfd its best to win. Races IIard Contested In the first race, a "quarter-mile, "Harry Miller," owned by Pete Wil- liams, Oakville, came first and Me- Kinney Pulsifer's "Coyote," Skoko- mish, "took second money. The three-eights race was led by Archie Adams' "Salem," from Sko- komish, while "Goldie J." an Oak- ville horse took second and Pulsifer's "Maud" third. The third was a half-mile race, the real test of, the best horses, and ,rchie A,lams' "Minute" carried off the honors in an exciting contest, the rider being a daughter of George Adams. The Oakville horse "Hary Mille ' was left with the Secbnd lace. Frank Allen's horse "Victor ." considered one of the best Sko- komish racers, broke,its halter be- fore the race and raced back, to the reservation. Prizes Raised ,Locally. Dr. Beach, J. A. Cole and Frank Fredson acted as judges, and Alex Marshall as tarter. About $80 was raised locally for prizes, But it is not known what the Indians wagered among themselves,--or what the white fans bet on the races. The races brought together a large gathering of In,diana from outside the county, wh6 enjoyed a camp- meeting and "wa-wa" Saturday and Sunday, while the ;bucks" spent the nights in playing e Indian bone- game." In this +the Oakvilles were arrayed* against the Skokomish In- dians, with whom were some Belling- ham Indians. Although no money was in evidence it is surmised that about as much money changed hands as in the races, and the Skokomish side appears to have pruned th visi- tors out of what they gained through the ponies. The Skokomish's had a mascot, a coal-black darkey, who chanted with the natives. Played Ancient "Bone Game'! . The "bone 'game" is an ld forra of gambling among the Indians, now rarely practiced except between dif- ferent tribes and in the form of a contest of guessing, accompanied .by much pantomine, pounding of boards, chants and jugglery. The bones con- sist of two small cylinders o boel one plain and the other marked with CAlqPS PREPARING FOR INDEFINITE SUM00ER CLOSING DURATION OF HOLIDAY SHUT" DOWN DEPENDENT ON IN- CREASE IN DEMAND FOR LUMBER All the logging' camps of this coun- ty are cleaning up. their cut logs and otherwise preparing for the usual holiday vacation and the duration of tte shut-dowu is in most cases in- detini]e. AH over the Sound as well as on Grays Harbor there is a big supply of logs ahead, which the mills are not sawing up as fast as usual,. because of the slack defiand for lure- be,'. The stock in the booms at Shelton is rather mord € than usual at this time of the year, and at the present rate of towing out of rafts, is ex- pected' to care for anticipated de- mands for six weeks or two months ahead. All the smaller truck opera- tors have stopped work for a time and are disposing of their los, and the camps of the Oakland Bay Com- pany also closed last week. The lat- er camps will reopen right after the Fourth. Camp Closiug Dates. The Simpson Companv camps I and 2 on the Peninsular Railroad, will be Vu]ly cleaned up and close their log- ging opera(ions this week, the log- gers cou,inA, down on the 18th, but ,'amos 4, 5 :tad 7 will continue h.ml- in: logs until the end of the month bofort, closin for the holidays. No de[inite time has been set for re- opening. It was olanned to fire the logged areas of Camps 1 and 2 this week, a district of about 600 acres, but the rains of the week will delay this work until conditions promise a bet= ter burn and the cleaning up of all brush and debris as protection from future fires at times when they can- not be so easily kept under control. Firing will also be (lone in tl¢ old workings of all other camps when conditions are right, under direction of the state fire wardens wth crews of men to prevent damage to green timber or logging property. Potlatch CamPs Continue. The camps of the Phoenix Logging Company at Potlatch will continue this month and only close for about ten days.while the loungers have their holiday. As this company has con- siderable timber on lands sold to the city of Tacoma for flooding with the Lake Cushmat project no time will be lost in g?tt, i!g th,.ti)obcrf,..gnd hauled f.rom the d]st:nc. eorge Simpson, who has been superintendent of the Phoenix opera- ,ions for several years will retire on account off ill health and take up his home at Elma after July ]st, and it is reported that Ed. Hiller, now in charge of the li"redson Bros. logging camp operations, will become super- intendent of the Phoenix camps.

They will pilot two big planes, one plane which will take up one or two passengers and the other a Curtis plane which will take up on or two ,besides the pilot. Angus O'Neill has !Sromised to go to Kent and help the pilots locate Shelton Saturday morning, and if he doesn't get cold feet may be seen lookinr down on us shortly after nine o'clock as the planes hover ovelc town on their way to the prairie. . , , The A;erial Tours planes nave een visiting various 'see,lens of the state and makin short stays to afford the public the thrill of little slay trips at $10 each.
