MR.. DAVIES
WILL ACCEPT
NOMINATION

In letter to the Daily World today,
T. A. Davies, answering an inquiry
as to " neither he would accept the no.
mination, for Mayor OF Wenatchee,
states that he will accept the nominat-
ion provided there is only one candid
ate named at the caucus. While Mr..
Davies is no. pushing himself forward
in the nj mayoraiity contest, and is rath-
er discouraging the efforts OF his
friends to elect him TO the Office, he
W ill through duty and public spirit
edness, accept the nomination should It
be rendered him.
There is no reason why there should
be M ore than one candidate Damea
at the caucus and that the candidate
named will be Mr.. Davies there is
small doubt. The voters of this city
recognize him as one of the most wide
awake capable business men of our
able to administer the affairs of the
mayors Office.
The abb ity that Mr.. Davies has
shawn in his business life here is
am pie evidence of his frnes> for .he
Yosi ton of chief executir+ cf the city.
This sa me clear sightedress and good
judgment in connection with our pub
lie business would be of inestimable
value.
Mr. Davies is a man whom the people
can trust, he las closely identified
himself with the city in every way
That he Edoes not seek the.office is il
his favor. In short Mr.. Davies is the
man for the place.

LIVELY MOVEMENT
IN REAL ESTATE

During the last month there hes heen
asiively movement in real ests te. The
county treasurer's books show that
during the month of October more act
ual transfers of land were made than
during any previous month in the
history of the county. The recording
fees alone amounted to S32S. While
ttis is by 10 means the largest amount
taken in by the treasurer in one month.
1t is larger than for some time. A
large part Of it was paid for recording
deeds and conditional sales. The
county auditors books do not show
all the sales that are made as con-
tracts of sales are not registered and
much of the land in the valley is being
sold in this manner.
Land values. are steadily increasin g
as is shown by the transfer of five
acres in subnrba home addition for
the sum of $4,000 or $1,000 an acre.
The following transfers were record
ed Yesterday:
United States to Dan Campbell,
40 acres near CheIan. nome steand
