McConnell mother of young Hall who was con srill do much to further th fnr vlcted of vagrancy a few days ago which we are all striving And remem Baileys attorney first moved for a her In your work that every vote counts new trial but It was denied I have that of the most ordinary man as well as the talented statesman Election Is the day of all others when men are absolutely equal before the law Remember what dignity the franchise gives a man Think of how hard friends will work to get the erring one pardoned if but for twenty four hours before the expiration of his sentence so ae will not go through the world with the stigma that comes from the inability to vote To give women the ballot will give them an added dignity It is not a ques ro personal feeling In this matter said Judge Campbell but I propose to stop this damnable traffic in morphine Every morning the dock of this court is crowded with human wrecks driven to crime to satisfy their cravings for the deadly drug You are a man of intelligence and should know these things Yet you convert your drug store Into an opium Joint and a whisky mill In the case of Chinese I usualjy In filet a penalty of 100 or 150 but with tlon whether the laws relating to women you It Is different You are a Christian are good or bad If they were perfect I and well educated and there is no ex would stand for fifty more years If I ruse tor thus

court is that you pay a fine of 500 or and after telling how mnch good work could be done she said that it was what Webster called the rub adub of agitation that told In the end By that an opinion could be formed which would find expression Continuing she said Many women call themselves conservative Why the conservative women of to day were the radicals of yesterday and we are an doing things socially polltlcallly and religiously that would shock our grand mothers Why In time to come Miss Anthony will be styled one of the most conservative women of the day No woman can escape from the added dignity which will come Any kind of power commands respect Beauty is power so Is intelligence so are riches and why not the ballot jMlss Shaw told of her trips to places where women voted in order that she might know exactly what she was talking of and gave graphically a picture of the uniform kindness and courtesy extended to women She explained that in Boston where women vote on school questions it had become general for women to avail themselves of their right and where at least thirty five polling places were In saloons before women voted they were now in school houses She told many amusing anecdotes and said When women have the ballot they can better do the work the world be Imprisoned in the County Jail for the period of six months An appeal bond was filed and the case will be taken to the Superior Court Mrs McConnell swore to the complaint charging Bailey with perjury before Judge Low During his trial Bailey produced a certificate sighed Morrison which he alleged that Mra McConnell gave him when she pur chased the morphine The lady and ner mend Mrs Forter swore they had iio order or prescription He was released under bonds of 2000 Judge Campbell has received a number of letters from druggists in different parts of the city commending his action in Baileys case Judge Conlan has refused to try the case of Otto Jackson Carrolls clerk on the ground of his friendly relations with Carroll Johns Brings Salt William Johns yesterday com menced his threatened suit against the Markeit street Railway Company to recover 60150 damages Johns Is the stockbroker who was ejected from a car after his transfer had been confiscated and who resisted to the extent of soundly thrashing both conductor and grip man Th street car employes caused his arrest on a charge of battery Johns was tried before a Jury on this charge and promptly acquitted Puget sound is excited by rumors that the western terminus of the Great Northern Railroad is soon to be finally fixed at Belllngham bay and this means a boom for New Whatcom and Fairhaven towns which adjoin each other andare practically one The Great Northern crosses the con tinent between the Northern Pacific and the Canadian Pacific and strikes the sound at Everett In latitude 48 degrees from which point it runs northward through New Whatcom to Vancouver and southward along the Sound to Seattle in which latter city it has been doing most of its western terminal business though It does not own terminal grounds there Its western re pairing shops art at Spokane about 160 miles east of the Sound These shops were erected outside of the city with the understanding as Mr Hill president of the road says that whenever a municipal governmentshould be necessary the territory occupied by the shops should be annexed to the city of Spokane Some enterprising residents of the suburb however thought they would rather hold all the offlces themselves so they obtained a separate town incorporation under the name of lnilyard and thus threw the whole burden of maintaining the new town government on the railroad property This action offended Mr Hill who said it was a violation of a contract and an unjust burden on his company and therefore he gave public notice that the carshops would be moved from Hill yard and that the order of removal would not be revoked or modified by any compromise About two weeks after this announce ment reports were published that on the 13th Inst deeds were filed in Whatcom county conveying the Great Northern Company an undivided one half interest in 1088 acres of land including nearly all the frontage of Chucka nut cove or bay part of Belllngham bay This land is well adapted to be used as the terminus of an extensive railway system and has little value for any other purpose Chuckanut cove is two miles long from north to south and half a mile wide with an entrance a mile and half across and two Islands In the line of the entrance The water Is from three to seven fathoms deep at low tide and the shore is solid ground with good opportunities for building wharves The land however begins to rise near the water into high hills so that though there is room for warehouses and shops there is none for residences and tbe people employed In the terminal buildings and yards must find their homes outside of the tracts recently conveyed to the company For several years Seattle as the largest city on the Sound has honed to ob tain the shops terminal grounds and main western omces of the Great Northern and recently when Mr Hill was there a party of local capitalists urged him to buy from them at a moderate price a large tract of valuable waterfront property in their town but he refused because he said his company must have its terminus at a place where taxation insurance and the cost of land and wharves would be less than at the one which they offered to him No other spot equally good could be found at Seattle and his decision meant re moval to another city The notice of fSe intention to abandon Hlllyard the purchase of the land at Chuckanut and the rejection of the Seattle offer all occurring within a period of a few weeks are evidently parts of the same plan of now making apermanent terminus on the waters of Puget sound Belllngham bay is about ten miles frqaaorla fcsoutf andflverailes wde from east to wesuwith aa average depth or

claimed to be Ithe tSound terminus of thejGreatiN6rthern but it Is a small place has no harbor accessible for large vessels at low tide and has never been advertised as a terminus by the company The

Investments have not yielded the anticipated profit The town has not enough business to attract the main terminus of a transcontinental rsllway In 1893 the Great Northern completed its line to Puget sound but crossed the Cascade range the continuation of the Sierra Nevada by a switchback in which the road ascends the mountain with sharp turns the engine going in front of the train in one stretch and behind it in another This switchback Is a temporary affair and the route by which it crosses the ridge Is unsatisfactory and therefore the company has been making additional surveys Rumor says tnat the permanent line is to cross the mountain with a tunnel a mile and a quarter long at the Cascade Pass about latitude 48 deg 30 mln to follow the Skagit river on the western slope passing near some valuable coal mines in which the railroad company has an Interest and to strike the Sound first at Fairhaven The Sound resrion enloved a mat boom from 18S8 to 1892 when the Union acme and Oregon
