On Friday he phoned to Wenatchee

sale. Mr. Harlin was unable to leave
on that day but on being informed that
he had the stock at the head Of the can

stock. They arrived at the upper ferry

CAPT. CHARLES JOHNSON
Republican Nominee for Representa-
tive From CheIan County--A
Long and Honorable
Career

Capt. Charles Johnson, republican
nominee for representative from Che
Ian county, was born in Sullivan coun-
ty, New York in 1912. He received his
education in the common schools, and
practical education in merchandising
and tanning, This people being extern
sive tanners and merchantsl.
At the outbreak of the civil war he
enlisted as private in the 56th regiment
of New York infantry and served to
the end of the war. He was promoted
through the different grades to captain
of his company, the last promotion De-
ing for gallantry on the field of battle.
At the battle of Honey Hill, S. c., Nov.
30th, 1864, he lost leg while leading
his company, which retired him from
active service during the rest of the
war, and was mustered out with his
regiment in July, 1865. AT the close
OF the war he entered the mercantile
business in his native town, which he
followed for number of years.
He has been a lifelong republican,
and has never once waivered from his
allegiance to that party. In 1874 he
was nominated for representative by
the republicans of his native county
and was beaten only by few votes in
strong democratic county. In 1880
he removed to Wayne, Nebraska, and
engaged in the mercantile business
there. In 1885 he was elected auditor
and clerk of the county, served one
term and declined a denomination, hav-
ing decided TO emigrate to Washington.
In 1888 he settled on Lake Chelan then
in Okanogan county, and was elected
one of the first com missioners of that
new county. Upon arriving in Wash
ington he engaged in fruit raising and
mining, and with patience and perse-
verance and the expenditure OF many
thousands of dollars, be has developed
one of the best mining properties in
eastern Washington. He is pioneer
of Chelan county and has always been
prominent in the upbuilding of the
Lake Chelan country, and is thorough
ly acquainted with the county and its
needs.

to be suspected. Mr.. Harlin who had
received notice of stock being missed
accordingly notified f. S. Steiner OF
Waterville, secretary and treasurer OF
the Eastern Washington Protective AS
sociation. Warrants for the arrest OF
the men were issued and they we're TAX
en- in charge by Sheriff Keller.
The cattle which are now in Harlin's
yards have been found to be from diff
ferent parts Of the state, some from
Ephrata, some from Moses Coulee and
some from the vicinity of Waterville.
There is reward of 5000 offered by
the protective association for informa-
ton leading to the arrest and convic-
ton of anyone stealing stock from any
member of the association. This re-
ward will be claimed by Mr.. Harlin.-

Mr.. Parker, Democratic nominee for
President, has never journeyed west OF
Buffalo, N. Y. What does he know OF
the great west, its people, their achieve
ments, their possibilities, their needs?
How can he reconcile the demands of
the different sections, and decide great
questions properly and for the good OF
the whole country? Of limited expert
ence, narrowed horizon, he is not
comparable with Theodore Roosevelt,
who has travelled the country over, lived
east and west, knows the people, the
country, and is President of the peo-
pie not controlled by Wall street and
its influences.
Some superextra cultured persons
down east have been much shocked al
the loose and careless way in which the
president has been using the English
language in some of his speeches. ln
one of them, delivered in Boston, too
he began Is unlucky sentences with the
word ''now," and he used the phrase
''have got II times. Worse than that
the chief magistrate of the nation actu
ally split an infinitive.

With every prospect of gaining a re-
prieve and eventually a Communication
to short term of Imprisonment, James
Webb, Pennsylvania murderer under
sentence for the murder OF his wife and
mother-in-law, has declared in his cell
at the Moyamensing prison that he
wishes to die and by his own act has
cut off his one chance of escaping the
gallows. When his attorney went to
the prison with the documents needing
the convicted mans signature, Webb
refused to sign, and said he wanted to
die on the gallows.

Party Records

In every national campaign for forty
years past the republican party ha;
stood upon its records of things done, Of
laws enacted, of policies established un
der which the country has progressed
and prospered. The record of the dem
ocratic party made in two administra.
tions was so full of disaster, of CONNER
cial shipwreck, of industrial paralysis
and business failures that its chief bus
iness in recent years has been to get as
far away from its record as possible.

A Fetal Accident.

A terrible accident with fatal re-
suits occurred at the home of James
Phillips near Usage Iron Works on
the Usage river last Saturday even
ing about 6 o'clock.
The details, as near as we have
been able to CLEAN them, disclose the
fact that Mr.. Phillips was chopping
wood in the yard at his home and
his eleven-year-old daughter Belva
went to where he was at work to
gather up some wood. The stick
on which the father was chopping
at the moment turned over causing
the x to glance. The blade flew
off the handle striking her just be-
low the car, the sharp point extend
ing to her throat, severing the Jug
ular vein. The child fell from the
force of the blow and the nature of
the injury was such that she gaSped
and writhcd for an instant and eX-
pired before the eyes Of her agonized
father. The l%ifelcss and bleeding
form of the little one was carried to
the house, while the fatality created
a scene of terror in the household.
The funeral took place on Mon
day. Besides the parents the vic.
tim OF the accident has several
brothers and sisters, among whom
was Miss Eva Phillips living at the
home of Mrs. Myra Sanford in this
city. She was called to her home
Sunday owing to the terrible affair.
The family entertain the deep
sympathy of the people of the neigh
borhood, especially because OF the
frightful manner by which the de-
ceased came to her death. The
fathers grief is almost unbearablc
under the painful ordeal Of being
the innocent cause of his child's
death.

Artistic Window Dressing.

Charley Petty, who came home
to spend the holiday season with
Versailles friends, took occasion to
try his skill as a window decorator
on the two show windows at the
Fair" Shoe Store Of J. A. Petty
a. Co., and the finishing touches
were completed last Friday. We
have no hcsitancy in stating that
this is the most artistic piece Of
work that has been executed in this
city and compares favorably with
the ability Of professional window
artists in St. Louis OF Kansas City.
The east window is arranged with
a dark background, wreathed with
holly in green and red effects, while
furnishing goods are so placed as to
make the beauty complete.
The west window has a red back
ground fcstooncd with holly, the
center is decorated with Il spiral
stand upon which is arranged all
elegant display Of fine shoes. among
which can be distinctly noticed the
"Fair's" leader, Queen Quality"
in all it, beauty. At night with
the electrical effects lighting up the
windows brilliantly present 4 fine
scene and hundreds have stopped
in passing TO look at the dazzling
beauty and comment upon the ar
fists ability.
Charley is travelling for the Leon
Speciality Co., of St. Louis, and il
be is not drawing a salary that is
%justihable as a salesman, lie would
experience but little trouble in oh.
tanning a position in one Of the big
city houses as a window decorator
as the show windows at "Thc Fair
prove him to be an adept in this
line Of work.

Haywood, the two-year-old son
of MIR. and Mrs. Paul Spurlock,
met with a painful accident at their
home on South Fisher street last
Friday night. They were making
a pan of candy for Christmas when
the little fellow innocently stuck
his right hand into the vessel before
he could be checked. The hot
fluid burned the surface skin off
the back of his little hand. Luck
lily the wound was not so severe as
to cause permanent injury.

home in the southwest part of

day pneumonia developed and her
condition soon became serious.
The young wife and fond mother
seemed to realize that the end
was near and prepared for it.
She suggested that the new ar.
rivals be named Ray and Roy
and the only regret she expressed
to the will of Providence was that
she could not livo to look after
her home and children.
