THEIR NEW NEIGHBOR

"Girls ~ cried Margery Kearaey,
"I've seen him Olive Stearling-
our new neighbor!' p
In quite whirl Of excitement
Margery had dashed into the coy
room where her three sisters were
sitting. She was shining with rain,
from The hood of her silver gray
gossamer to the very tips OF her
rubbers. The fluffy brown curls
across her forehead were sprinkled
with bright drops, and her cheeks
were glowing IRON her rapid walk.

CoIrAx, July 19.--F. w. Becker, the de-
posed chairman Of the Whitman County
Republican Central Committee. issued his
defense today for publication in the local
papers. He declares that the meeting
which ousted him was Illegal and the charges
trumped up. Henow acknowledges that he
received $500 from an outside county for
campaign uses, but denies having received
$500. as charged by the committee, and the
bank records where the checks we're cashed
seem to bear him out in this claim He as
serts that his total receipts were 1928. and OF
this amount he had paid out for various
expenses $446. and the balance he paid to
+. w. Becker for services rendered. He
concludes as follows:
With these facts leave you all to draw your
own conclusions as to my guilt or Innocence.
and until am pronounced guilty by the next
Republican county convention, shall consider
myself chairman until my successor is duly
elected.
Mr.. Becker has called primaries for

A great majority of the lots taken have
already been slashed and a number of
buildings put up. A petition has been
forwarded TO Congressman Wilson, asking
him to use his influence to confirm the
claimants in their rights, the same as
squatters' rights on puoiic lands. There is
considerable confusion and diversity of
opinion as to the law applicable to this par
ticular case, but it is almost a unit as to
preference of purchase being given to the
squatter. The petition requests that the
minimum price per lot be $40 and the max.
imum price $40 per lot. The government
has appropriated 5000 for the survey of
the reserve, and the contract has already
been let to a prominent surveyor of Seattle.
