CHFLAN COUNTY

As fierce political fight is on for
control in Chelan county among the
republicans as exists in any of the
largest counties of the state. Mr..
Atkinson, state auditor and aspirant
for the governors seat, comes from

have decided it would be pretty
piece of work to send Mcbride dele

Mr., Daggett said: II have con-

think the best plan would be to levy

would be a permanent affair. If the
people objected to levying by dis
