vor of its intelligent use in Swift
zerland, and that is the low per
centage of illiteracy, which is
the smallest of any country in
the world.
The law has been in effect in
Los Angeles for almost ten years
and other California cities have
adopted it more recently, while
the whole state of Oregon has
adopted it still more recently. So
far not one single evil effect
from its use has been reported.
1t is perfectly safe to say that
United states senator Aldrich of
Rhode Island is opposed to the
adoption of the law. Under its
workings after opposing such a
law as removing the revenue
tax from denaturized alcohol the
people would not be slow to de-
clare his office vacant.

CUMULATIVE AND REFERENDUM''

The organization of club OF
working men who have for their
object the adoption of what is
known as "The Initiative, Refer
endum and Right of Recall as
part of the law governing the
corporation of the town of Leav-
enWorth, should a majority
vote in favor of incorporation,
has raised a question that few
voters are posted on.
There is an old proverb that
runs somewhat thus: "the fool
condemns everything that he does
not understand. The wise man
condemns nothing withoutinvesti-
CATION. y
Some ten or eleven years ago
the writer had occasion to give
this question all the investiga-
ton that the limits of his under
standing would permit of, and
he here modestly admits his
conversion to the wholesome
ness of such law as "The mi
tiative, Referendum and Right of
Recall"
He further submits as an ire
futable proposition that no man
can consistently oppose its adop-
ton who favors majority rule.
He only who opposes majority
rule can oppose it's adoption and
maintain a reputation for con
sistency.
That it has grown in favor in
the past ten years, and will con-
tinue to grow, may be laid down
as a safe proposition. The city
of Los Angeles, Gala, embraced
it in its charter some years ago.
The city of Seattle recently
grated it on its new charter, if
we are correctly informed. The
city of Tacoma has grated the
referendum on it's charter in so
far as the voting of money or
bonds is concerned. Its adop-

JUDGE KING FOR REPRESENTA-
TIVE

If any reason has been given
why Mr.. j. j. King should not
be the candidate of the republi-
can party for representative in
the Tenth Legislature of the state
of Washington from Chelan
county, we have not heard it.
Every contention founded on
right and reason supports the
proposition that Leavenworth
should be given the representa-
tive by the republican county
convention.
TO state our position briefly
and squarely, it is this: at the
present time the city of Wenat-
chez is represented in the state
legislature by a senator in the
person of Mr.. Arthur Gum, an
exceeding clever and influential
gentleman, even if he is a demo
crat.
That Mr.. Gum was elected
over Mr.. Reed, the nominee on
the republican ticket, by the re-
publicans of Wenatchee voting
for him, is SO we'll known that ii
need not be repeated. Now, the
Echo begs leave to say that these
republicans can not, with grace
that will satisfy the republican
voters of the county, ask for
the representative.
We take it forgranted after hav
ing been given this office for the
past three terms the north end
of the county will not ask for il
again.
Having abundant faith in the
Justice of our demand we conf
IDENTIFY believe that Judge King
will be our representative in the
tenth Legislature.
Leavenworth does not want
the earth, but it does want the
commissioner and representa-
tive.
Ought the wishes of the re-
publican voters of the west end
of the county to be considered
1t would seem that the portion
of the county upon which de
ponds the election of the ticket
is entitled to consideration.

VIM B. Patton, mechanical genius
of more than ordinary ability, whose
home is in Cashmere, brot IA beautiful
little gasoline launch here last Satur-
daN and put it in The Ic Gle rivt r. In
the afternoon he ran it down to town
ard gave all the little girls and boys a
ride on tie sheet of water that lies just
alongside the town. While not large
this is fine place to operate launch
and Mr.. Patton may decide to keep it
here for several months this summer.
The launch will hold from eight to
twelve people and is "a handsome little
craft. Mr. Patton built and equipped
the boat himself.
A very enjoyable and private affair
was that of family dinner party given
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Bloom by
Miss A Ina Willis, in honor of Marion
Mathews last Friday evening, at $50.
The table was beautifully decorated
with carnations and forget me-nots.
The place cards were odd and pretty,
painted by Miss Willis, one of the pub
lie school teachers, who was Miss
Mathews room mate. The dinner was "a
farewell to Miss Mathes. She left Sun
day for Everett She came here suf-
fering with asthma last fall and is now
entirely cured. Miss Mathews made
many friends while here, especially in
school shs was loved and esteemed by
all who knew her
Henry Ellis returned Wednesday
from a seven weeks stay in New
York City where he went with the pur-
pose of interesting eastern capital in
Red mountain mining property In
which he is interested, and arrived
here last Monday. He left Wednesday
for the Red mountain district with sup
plies and number of men. He tells
the Echo that he will at once begin
constructing road from the property
he is interested in to connect with the
state road which william Gavin mas
the contract to build The connecting
road is about seven miles long. Every
thing is in readiness to move mining
machinery to the property as soon as
the road is completed. In the mean
time development work will be pushed
with all the speed that present condi-
tions will permit of.
