iavellan, known only to the wise
woman and the married man who
is like nothing so much as putty
in her hands. And then, when
all else fails to bring this stupid
old animal to time, when he still
holds out and shows a tendency
to sui or balk in the matrimonial
harness, like the good general,
she has her strongest force in
reserve. If she cannot fetch him
with tears he is indeed tiinty-
hearted wretch who is fit only
for treason, stratagems and
spoil, and should be cast into
outer darkness.
Where is the married man who
has not had his heart Softened
and the strings of his purse loos-
ened by feminine tears. Tenny-
son sang "Tears, idle tears, l
know not what they mean," but
that was surely before he got
married. After he married he
knew better. He found out then
what tears meant.
No, No. The feminine world
will never take Mrs. Foulks' ad-
vice or take the bull by the
horns. The married men, bar
ring the occasional exception,
will still get their three meals a
day, and on occasions they will
get something extra.

WILL MARRIED WOMEN STRIKE.

Recently at meeting of the
Women's Christian Temperance
Union in Newcastle, Pa, Mrs.
Chas. w. Foulks advised all the
married women to strike against
their husbands for refusing to
give them the right of franchise
so that the women could vote
down the liquor traffic. Among
other things she said:
"If the men do not recognize our
right to suffrage the women should re-
Ia late by refusing TO cook for the men.
In this manner the men will soon be
brought to time, and will recognize a
woman 5 power"
1t has been asserted (by women
we believe) that the road to a
mans purse and to his heart is
by the route of his stomach, and
now the dear creatures also pro-
pose to reach his political con-
science by the same route, with
d direct reverse of methods, how
ever, in this latest ATTACK on
what has always been considered
an exclusive privilege, Mrs.
Foulks advises her sisters to
starve the men into submission.
Instead of feeding the guileless
animal into the torpid state,
when he readily becomes easy
prey to feminine wiles, she adj
vises what amounts to the use of
force. She really wants her sis
tiers to help her take the bull by
the horns.
Mrs. Foullzs shows herself to
be woman of poor judgment
and entirely lacking in tact. Her
sisters will be slow to take her
advice. We know what kind of
stuff Mrs. Foulks is made of, and
we know, too, what kind of diet
is doled out to Mrs. Foulks' hus-
band. We know that it is not
the kind upon which Cassers are
fed. Once in q while one of
these Amazonian females will
take one of these animals called
q man, by the horns, and throw
him over the fence, but the
sex lacks a whole lot of being
convinced that the exception
proves the rule. The wise wo-
man, and the wise woman is the
average woman, knows better
She knows the effect of a smile,
and in the use OF cajolery she is
past master, and then there
are thousand and one other lit
tie arts that border on the Mach

Will the populists who believed
in fiat money and government
ownership of public utilities, and
the free silver republicans, all of
whom were taken into the demo
cratic party under the wing of
the Kansas City platform, vote
for George Turner, the most
rabid gold standard, trust sup
porter in the state of Washing
ton? The man who defeated the
wishes of Mr.. Bryan at Olympia
last spring and prevented a Bry-
an delegation from going to st.
Louis. 1t is not believable that
men with sincere convictions
can be led like sheep to the
SHAMELESS.

HON. ALBERT E. MEAD.
A FOXY GAME THE DEMOCRATS
ARE PLAYING

Without going into the merits
of the controversy between LII.
Bowman and the Wenatchee Re-
publican Club, a matter which
this paper has taken no part in,
it is our purpose here to lay bare
the game of double dealing which
the democrats of this county are
playing. They are dealing cards
to the voters from the top and
bottom of the pack with a reck-
less disregard for the ethics OF
the game, caring nothing for the
rules, so they hold the winning
hand.
1t is of course we'll known that
without the aid of q good sized
bunch of republican voters there
is no chance of q democrat get
ting in sight of the official pie
counter in Chelan county. So
far the bunch of republican
voters have not shown DISPOSE
tion to deliver the goods. Among
the many methods adopted to get
this very necessary bunch is the
foxy one of appealing to the
prejudice of two classes OF
republican voters, and very cum
ningly are they playing the
game. They are, however, count
ing without their host. The
bunch of republican voters see
that the cards are being dealt
from the top and bottom, and
they will not allow themselves
to be used as cats paws to rake
the official chestnuts out of the
fire for the democrats. They are
discounting the intelligence OF
the voter. The average republi-
can knows well enough that after
the election he will only be
laughed at for helping to defeat
his own ticket.
AS an instance of how foxy they
are, we have only to call atten-
ton to the way they tainted a
certain class of republican voters
few weeks ago with having a
state committeeman that they
could not respect-that was a
load on the party, and how salts
factory it was to them to have
Mr.. Bowman occupying the po-
sition of state committeeman
from Chelan county, and how it
would drive a good many of the
best men in the party into vot-
ing for the democratic county
ticket.
Now note the sequel. Two
weeks ago the republican club
of Wenatchee, with the advice
and support of a number of re
publicans of different parts of
the county met and passed reso-
buttons denouncing Mr.. Bowman,
refusing to recognize him as
state 0 m m i t man. Since
that event our democratic

The republican who votes for
a democrat may expect to be
tainted with the fact just as Mr..
Frank Reeves tainted a republi-
can in his speech last Saturday
night at the pavilion. The dem
ocrats want your help to elect
themto office, and afterwards will
laugh at you for deserving your
principles.

Hon. John d. Atkinson, stopped Off
here Saturday for day and while here
had a talk with the editor of the Echo.
He says he spent the last two weeks
speech making 10 the counties OF the
west side OF the mountains and found
everything in very satisfactory shape
for the success of the republican state
ticket. Mr.. Atkinson went from here
to Wenatchee, where he spent Sunday.

PARTY organization does no

Party organization does not
begin at the top of the ticket, it
begins at the bottom and works
mp. You can not promote party
organization by voting for the
head of the ticket and scratching
the bottom. If you believe in
the principles of the democratic
party, it's methods. it's practices
and its past record, vote the tick
ct from the bottom up. On the
other hand if you are a republi-
can and believe in the principles
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1904-10-21

1t must be very unpalatable to
that class of voters who were
enthusiastic supporters of Mr..
Bryan and everything that he
stood for to face about and sup
port Mr.. Turner and what he
stands for. 1t may be easily
supposed that the followers OF
Mr. Bryan bad much more sim
cere and deepseated convictions
than Mr.. Turner and can not
with equal facility turn their po-
litical coats.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1904-10-21

In his speech last Saturday
night at the pavilion Mr.. Frank
Reeves criticised the Echo for
advising all republicans to vote
the ticket straight. This paper
has at least been consistent. 1t
has not picked out two candi-
dates on the republican ticket
and urged that they be support
ed above all the others; neither
has it asked democrats to
vote the republican ticket.
This paper believes there are
enough republicans in Chelan
county to elect every man on the
ticket if all vote their principles.

Humming, purring on the way
From the SHOWS that gave 1t BIRTH
Came the happy crystal stream;
And 1t lingerid there, to dream
In the hill-protected vale where lies the VII

Then the breeze grew soft and mild;
Then the moon looked down and smiled;
And the eve was on the earth.
Then she soft the river kissed,
And a robe of silver mist
Laid she softly DER the river, as 1t slept by

The Sun his journey did fulfil.
He.halted at the eastern hill
That guards the fairest spot on earth,
And reaching over rock and cleft,
He raised the vail the Moon had left-
From sleeping stream and Leavenworth.

And while the village rubs its eyes
To see another mornings birth,
The stream with wonder greets the day;
Then to resume its seward way,

TAX REFORM.

The annual report of the New York
Tax Reform association has just been
made public and indicates that the
members feel high degree of satisfac-
ton with the result of their efforts.
Under the head of Tax Bills Reduced"
the report says:
THE honest payers of taxes on per-
sonal property have saved this year 35
per cent of their usual tax by the en-
forcement of the law for the assess
ment of real estate at full value. Per
sonal property when found has always
been assessed at full value, and real
estate at not more than two-thirds of
its value. The man who had 100000
worth of personal property paid tax
of about $4,000, and the man who had
real estate of the same value paid only
about s1.6G0. This was a great injustice
to individuals and a great detriment to
the city, for the high tax rate on per-
sonal property tended to drive it away
and keep it from coming here. The
courts refused relief.
The Importance Of the assessment of
real estate as the law directs can hard
" be overestimated. Everyone who
pays taxes on 100000 worth of personal
property paid at least $500 less because
of this equalization and will continue to
save this sum annually. When the as
sessment is half a million dollars, as it is
in many cases, the saving is $4,000 a
year. After due allowance is made for
the saving to tax payers by the change
in sinking fund requirements the per-
sonal property tax payers of the city
saved over 100000 and this annual
saving will continue.
This lessening of the tax burden on
capital has actually resulted in getting
such an increase of personal property
on the assessment rolls that personal
property as a whole pays approximate
the same proportion of tax as before.
I'VE believe that the present activity
Of real estate in New York as compared
with other cities is largely due to this
Iaet that capital has had less fear thai

Mayor Harrison has been discharged
by the court having jurisdiction of the
case from all responsibility for the Iro-
quois theater fire. 1t is not unlikely
that one by one all those held to the
grand jury by the coroner will be
legally freed from blame. 1t will be
extremely difficult to fix so frightful q
responsibility upon any one man or set
of men where so many things contrib
uted to the catastrophe, any one OF
which omitted might or might not
have made a vast difference. The au-
thorities. as in all times of great public
excitement, felt called upon to dosome-
thing to appease the clarnor of the peo-
pie and they have done about the only
thing in sight. Time will soften the
peoples feelings as it always does and
it is not likely that anybody will be
punished for the Iroquois disaster.

THE PRESS ON BURTON.
SENATOR BURTON,S CASE

IFrom the Chicago Inter-Ocean.1
Senator Burton of Kansas has been
indicted by the federal grand jury at
St Louis for accepting money from
a client for obtaining fayors from the
postoffice department at Washington.
Senator Burton's defense is that the
money paid him was for his services
as attorney for Major Hugh c. Dennis
under indictment because of his con-
nection with the Rialto Grain and Sc
curities company.
This defense is not satisfactory to
many of Mr.. Burton's friends in Kan
sas. who insist that their senator COM
United a serious offense when he
agreed 10 defend in the courts a client
under Indictment for fraud. AS Major
Dennis was not found guilty on the
charge of fraud this contention has lit
tie force.
On the charge that he accepted mon
ey for using his position and influence
as United States senator in the interest
of his client Mr.. Burton announces that
he is ready TO answer at once, and
that, waving his privilege as senator,
he will go to St. Louis for trial.

The convention opened with an adj
dress by President GODDARD, who spoke
on the origin and rapid growth of the
telephone business, and the great good
which had been accomplished. In his
address President GoGard discussed the
Mccain case of Johnson county, in
which a telephone company has been
en3oined by the supreme court from
building a line on a public highway in
front of McCann's property. In this
case the farmer, Mccain, was beaten
in district court, but the decision was
reversed in the supreme court. The
case had been taken up by attorneys
for the Independent Telephone associa-
ton, said Mr.. GODDARD, and a rehearing
of the case has been granted by the
supreme court, with the expectation
that the case will come up some time
in May.
In the Mccain case it seems that the
farmer objected to a pole being set in
front of a gate to his property. The
matter was discussed among the NOM
bers and it was decided to send a man
to Johnson county for the purpose of
investigating the case and finding out
if an injustice had been done the farm
er. It is not the purpose of the asso-
