Owing to misunderstanding as to
the time when the governors train
would arrive from Spokane Monday and
the apparent mismanagement on the
part OF the reception committee, his re-
ception at the station was not by any
means tlattering, there being only three
or four Of his adherents there to meet
him. The procession from the train to
the liberia Hotel consisted OF a few of
the governors admirers on foot, Mr..
Michael Koran in wagon with a
rather conspicuous banner, but from
some unknown cause or misunderstood
ing on the part of the committee, Mr..
Koran came up one street with his ban
ner and Governor Mcbride with his
friends up another, and the reunion at
the liberia Hotel must have been
somewhat embarrassing to his excel
lency, Later in the day the High
School Cadets, of the Wenatchee High
School, waited upon the governor at
the Elberta Hotel. In the afternoon, a
delegation OF the Mission Roosevelt
Mcbride McManus Club arrived in We
natchee, accompanied by the Leaven-
worth band The meeting was held in
the new lumber shed of the Skykomish
Lumber Company, which is a large
structure and was pretty we'll filled by
Chelan county citizens and when the
governor entered the building he was
received with quite an applause, and
no ono would have been aware but
what the governor was among his po-
litical adherents. The Atkinson peo-
pie, however, outnumbered the Nc
Bride forces about three to one. Upon
the platform were seated, in addition
to the governor, Judge Palmer, Michael
Koran, Rev. Utter and Judge Martin.
The governors speech at Wenatchee
was practically a rehearsal OF his var
ious speeches made In the state, and de-
waited but little with the exception that
he made an extensive explanation why
he vetoed, at the last legislature, what
is known as the local option bill.
With reference to the railroad COM
mission, the governor said in part
~ prefer An appointive commission.

Sometime ago the liberal peo-
pie of Wenatchee bought the
band boys of that town COM
plete set of uniforms, and now
by public subscription they are
preparing to erect a handsome
band stand in the park where
the band is to give concerts two
evenings each week during the
summer. Verify you can tell a
good town by the progressive
and liberal spirit of its citizens
as much as you can tree by its
fruit. Is there enough of town
pride and liberality in Leaven'
worth to buy the band boys a
uniform.

he has not long since been
hanged or burned at the stake,
like those negroes down south
who have committed only one
crime against .aeeeney, while
Hearst must have committed
hundreds.
According to our view the re-
publican press is making mis-
take in deHoting SO much time
and space to Hearst. You ad-
vertise his business and have
made ten supporters where he
formerly had but one. You drive
all that large crowd that
sympathizes with the under dog,
to his support; you arouse into
activity his friends-for even
Hearst has some friends, as black
as he is painted.
For ourselves we know moth
ing of Mr.. Hearst's private life
public life he has had none
We only know him as very rich
man who has gone extensively
into the newspaper business, of
which he has made q success, for
which the opposition press is
largely responsible. For our
selves, we admit we do not ad-
mire his newspapers, but We
are also compelled to admit
that we belong to the mi
nority, as the majority seem to
prefer the kind of paper he
prints.
Let's give Hearst rest, and
if the democrats are foolish
enough to nominate him for
president we will beat him with
Roosevelt.

GIVE HEARsr a REST.
lar government

Why should sober republican
newspapers go into Mysteries
over the prospect of William r.
Hearst becoming the nominee of
the democratic party for presi-
dent? What republican news
papers say can have no effect,
except, possibly, to cause the
democratic party to do the
very thing the republican
papers say they ought not to do.
The republican papers have
done more to boom the candida
CIV of VIM. r. Hearst than his
friends ever hoped to do. They
have likewise done more to ad-
vance the sale of his newspapers
and make them profitable than
he could have done with all his
millions of money in the same
length of time. just oppose a
man like Hearst with abuse, call
him an idiot, fool, liar, knave,
poltroon, coward, thief, liber-
tine; say that he beats his wife,
robs his mother and steals from
children, and accuse him of any
other crime that your imagination
can invent, and if you can become
real vile and nasty, and keep it
up long enough, Hearst may be
nominated, and will come nearer
being elected than he otherwise
would. According to the re-
publican press, Hearst is so poor
that he has not one solitary re-
deeming quality. He has been
guilty of every crime against
morality, decency and religion.
The writer has heard people ex'
press wonder that the people
who know him will permit him
to live, and are astonished that

Governor Nc Bride must have
been misinformed as to the con-
dition of things political in Che
Ian county, else he would not
have invaded Mr.. Atkinson
home county with the hope OF
carrying it. This is not the first
time that a man was done up by
his friends.

NO FAlrs IN THE PEOPLE

In his speech at Wenatchee
last Tuesday, Governor Mcbride
reiterated his adherence to an
appointive commission. If he
has been correctly reported he
said on this point, 81 am in IA
vor of an appointive commission.
I think faith should be kept with
the people of the state, that is one
reason, and reason enough for
me to favor an appointive rather
than an elective commission"
People who favor an appointive
rather than an elective commis-
sion, we assert, without fear of
contradiction, are confined to the
adherents of the governor. A
large and conservative following
stand behind Mr.. Atkinson who
also, favor a railroad commits
sion, but they prefer an elective
commission, believing that such
a one would be preferable, and
that belief is based on the ..ex-
perience of other states along
this line. There is not a single
instance on record where state
has abandoned an elective COM
mission for an appointive one,
but on the other hand appointive
commissions have been abandon
ed for elective ones. A case
in point is the state of Oregon,
where the original law provided
for an appointive commission
which has been repealed by the
enactment of law making the
commission elective. Does Mr..
Mcbride believe he is more ca
pable of selecting. the commits
sion than the great mass of peo-
Pile? Can he give better reason
for favoring an appointive com
mission than that he lacks faith
in popular government? People
who believe in monarchial as
distinguished from popular or
republican forms of government
quite naturally hold to the belief
that all officers should be APP
pointed. Governor Mcbride has
evidently lost his faith in popu,
lar government.

music thus furnish was first class, is

music thus furnish was first class, is
certainly no exaggeration.
The Mcbride boom was married by
receiving the information about four
O'Clock that Blewett and Entiat had
elected solid delegation for John D.
Atkinson. and one could see the Atkin-
son adherents gong around with a
broad and confident smile.
The governors speech at Wenatchee
certainly indicated John D. Atkinson
from the churges made in the Mission
paper. That Mr.. Atkinson will now
come out Of Wenatchee with the dele
CATION as governor, there certainly can
be no question.

Reports from Elk City announce
the opening up Of a vein OF very
rich ore in the lower tunnel OF the
Buster mine Tho Buster has al
ways been considered as having the
making of a great mine, as it has
two large parallel veins, each 10
feet wide, at a distance OF 100 feet
apart. This property was recent
ly examined by E. M. Aldrich, a
mining broker of Spokane, for
eastern capitalists, and it is to be
hoped they will take hold OF the
property. With twenty-staml
mill and fifty men working on thu
Buster mine old Fix City would
soon demonstrate itself to be thu
liveliest camp in this county. Ant

pebble on the beach. There ar
other properties in that cam
equally worthy the attention o

When the man seeks to set up
the shibboleth OF name as syno-
