OPENINGOF THECASHMERE
The Opening of the New Hotel In
Cashmere in Honor Of the City
Made the Occasion of n Ban-
auet to Inyfted Guests.

On last Thursday evening Stephen
5. Bailey, formerly a prominent citi-
zen of Seattle, but now one OF the large
roperty holders in the town and the
beautiful valley surrounding it, opened
the fine hotel which he recently com
pleted in Cashmere and made the
event memorable by rendering to the
city council banquet. Between one
hundred and fifty and two hundred
guests from the Vale of Cashmere as
we'll as some from Seattle, Leavenworth
and Wenatchee, were welcomed by the
geninl Colonel with that suavity which
betrayed Mr.. Bailey's Kentucky birth.
After the banquet, which was most
bountifully and elegantly served, Cap
tain Burbank, on behalf of the city
council, said he hoped the occasion
marked the beginning of q prosperous
future for the fiuest hotel la the state
of Washington between Seattle and
Spokane.
The banqueting hours were delight
fully enlivened by strains of sweet
music from the we'll known McDaniel's
Orchestra. Indeed. Colonel Bailey
forgot nothing that would add to the
pleasure of the guests of the new
hostelry. The launching of this new
est enterprise for our sister town was
under the most auspicious circum-
stances.
The Cashmere is in every respect
hotel with every modern convenience.
In its appointments it is the equal OF
any ia the larger cities, the only differ
ence being that it is not SO large.
After the banquet the large Office
was turned into ball room. From ten
to one thirty the guests, at least those
who were so inclined. indulged in dane
ing, and right heartily they all entered
into the diversion

Not until two weeks ago was the de-

If the matter had been agitated sooner
the showing might have been much
better.
With the object of correcting an i'm
preston that has gone abroad that
fruits would not ripen and farm pro-
ducts would not mature in this locality
the farmers and orchardists from this
vicinity have gotten up an exhibit for
for the Chelan county fair.
The exhibits from this locality are
all grouped together in the west end of
the agricultural building and whie it
is not so Jorge as the general exhibit it
has attracted considerable attention
from visitors. AS is well known we are

Philippine TARIFF.
Secretary Taft Wants Sugar and To
bacco Rates Eeduced.

Kansas City.-Secretary Taft arrived
early Monday, was taken to the Com
mercial Club. where he held a public
reception, and later drove over the
city. At the banquet United States
Senator Warner was toastmaster. Sec
retary Taft was given an ovation when
he arose to speak. He said:
In all the legislation for which Con
gress is responsible affecting the Phil
ippine islands, there are but two acts
which can be criticised as having a
selfish motive. One is what We might
call the coastwise act. the effect of
which is to require that after July /.
1906, all freight from the Philippine
islands to the United States and the
reverse shall be carried in American
bottoms. And the other is the law by
which there is imposed on products
of the Philippines into the United
States seventy-ive per cent. of the
Dingley rates.
IF the coastwise act is permitted to
come into effect and the tax upon Phil
ippine products is not removed, we
have Congress assuming the utterly
indefensible position that for the pur-
pose of the sale of the Filipino prod
ucts by the Filipinos, the Philippines
eign country, while for the purpose of
furnishing business to the American
merchant marine they shall be treated
as a domestic country and shall be
made to pay the higher rates of freight
which such coastwise provision nee
essarily entails and implies.
THE Legislation proposed for the re-
lief of the Philippines is an act post
poning the application of the coast
wise trading laws to the trade between
the Philippine islands and the United
States until 1909, the reduction of the
tariff on sugar and tobacco from seven
ty-five per cent. to twenty-five per cent
of the Dlngly rates and on other prod
ucts of the Philippines, free trade until
1909, when there shall be complete
free trade in the products of either"
Secretary Taft said that the two in
terests in this country arrayed in op-
position to free trade with the Philip
pines are the sugar and tobacco inter
ests. These interests objected on the
ground that all the benefits and all
the good which the country proposes
to confer upon the Philippines would
result solely in an injury to the sugar
and tobacco interests and at their ex-
pense alone, wittout any cost to the
rest of the country.
He declared that unless the Philip
pine government into the United
States increase from less than $4,000
which he deems impossible. 1t will not
AFFECT the price at which sugar will be
sold in the United States.

what took place during my visit. the

we are in complete accord as to the
need of the permanent abolishment of
brutality and foul play; of the increase
of the powers of the officials and of
the severity of the penalties as being
necessary TO bring about such aboli-

responsible for what goes on in his

permanent removal from the game not
only of the foul and brutal player, but
of the man who is not a bona fide stu

misfortune to lose SO manly and vigor-

The President spoke more than

lists at tie request of this government.
At the beginning 1t was evident that
a majority of the members were in
favor of a sea-level canal. Their point
of view was that even il 1t cost more
than n lock canal and would take
longer in the building. it would ulti-

enable ships to make much shorter
trip than if they were obliged to go
through three or four locks. The mi

in as short time as possible and
with the least cost. declaring that a
few hours longer for the trip through
the isthmus made little or no differ

from whom great things may yet be
