50 PER GENT
OFF FOR CASH
SENT MONEY FOR BROTHER BUT
HALF BROTHER CAME
INSTEAD.

Owing to the fact that there are two
have the same names and that there
is family of the same name in each,
there has been a mixup in this city
caused by letters going astray which
has yet to be Strengthened out. The
result is that Mrs. George Fries drew
half brother instead of a brother,
and the wrong family is getting busy
to earn the money to send back to the
right one
For some time it has been the Gus:
tom for Russians living here to pur-
chase through tickets from the land of
the White Father to the Garden City,
and send them to their relatives, who
would then come out to this. country
and work and get the money with
winch to repay their relatives who
sent the tickets.
Mrs. George decided her brother and
family could do better in this country
than in Russia and so sent several
hundred dollars worth of tickets to the
Old country. Supposedly the brother
got them, but in reality they went to
the wrong town and the half brother.
Cables from Bremen. Germany. were
the first news that the family had
started on their way Next a tele-
gram from Baltimore, asking for more
money. was received This was sent.
as the family here thought perhaps
they had not sent enough the first
time
But When the party arrived in the
city some two days ago. the mistake
was found. The money had been sent

clouds of heavy tobacco smoke from

the story was told Saturday night and
the new arrivals are to pay the. pas
sage OF the family who should have
come out in the first place. Until that
time, they must remain in Russia under
the rule of the Car.

Spokane and Inland Headed
This Way
PRESIDENT OF ROAD TALKS
J.P. GRAVES SAYS DIVISION is TO
BE EXTENDED TO TAP RICH
SURROUNDING
COUNTRY.

That Walla Walla is to have an cleo
trio railroad connecting her with Spo-
kane and other cities of the Inland
Empire is a certainty, according to
statements recently made by j. P.
Graves, president of the Spokane and
Inland Electric line. In the November
issue of 1.-The Coast" Mr.. Graves says:
The Spokane and Inland division
extends southwark from Spokane into
the famous Palouse country. 1t strikes
such towns as Oakesdale, Garfield, Pa
louise. Moscow, Rosalia, Thornton and
Colfax
From Colfax it is intended to ex-
tend the line down to Walla Walla.
This opens up and gives competitive
transportation to one of the richest
sections of the northwest. This division
gives the people of that country the
cheapest kind of transportation facil-
tiles known. This year this part of the
Inland Empire alone produced about
10000 900 bushels of wheat, 10000 tons
of oats and 10000 tons of barley.
I'm the operation of the system so
and 72-ton electric locomotives are
used with capacities of 600 and 700
horsepower respectively. Brill coaches
5S feet long are employed in the pas
senger service. The road is actually a
steam roadway built of 70-pound steel
rails. There is no finer service main
tanned in the. United States
The line from Spokane to Colfax
has demonstrated itself to be a pow
erful instrument in the building up of
of the country. The service put on by
the electric line far surpasses that of
the steam roads and the competition
started by the new line has had most
decidedly healthy effect in getting
transportation facilities from the
other lines.
The electric road is clean ard fur
nishes quick and ready means of trans
portation. The extension of the line
into Walla Walla would mean much to
this city. There would be di-
rect connection. both passenger
and freight, with Spokane ard
trains run independent of other
through" lines, consequently they
would be more apt to be within an
hour or two of their schedule time.

CAN RUN ANYWAY
Defeated by Republicans Black is No.
minated by Democrats.

BY a peculiar combination of circum-
stances. Alfred l.. Black, the defeated
candidate for mayor of Bellingham on
the republican ticket, has been made
the nominee of the democrats. The ACT
of about a dozen devotees of demo-
cracy put him in the race as their
candidate, without his knowledge, and
under the opinion rendered orally by
State Attorney General Atkinson, he
can not withdraw his candidacy. At
the primaries last Tuesday, several men
who called for the democratic tickets,
finding but one man to vote for. filled
the space for mayor by writing in the
name Of A. l.. Black
Mayor Black said that he did not as
pire to the honor of representing the
democrats in the campaign for mayor,
and he expressed embarrassment at
the situation in which he has been
placed. He says he is anxious to with
draw. and declares he expects to start
mandamus proceedings against City
Comptroller Graves to compel him to
remove his (Black's) name from the
ticket.
Mayor Black stated that according
to the attorney general the indepen-
dent party can not be recognized as
a party in Bellingham. He declares
that it is composed principally of dis
gruntled republicans and many demo-
Gratis, who got together for the purpose
of placing a candidate in the field be-
cause they opposed the regular parties
nominees. The question will probably
be brought up at the election.

NEW YORK. Nov. 26.-It is an
nounced thai the football receipts for
the season for Yale will reach ap-

STILL REJOICING.

1.-THE few yellow sheets in the Ter
ritory, about half a dozen of them al
told, are rejoicing because they be
lieve taat there will be changes in
Territorial officials when Governor
Curry takes charge. This is very like
ly to be the case as it is not reason
able to expect that Governor Curry
will retain the appointees of the fake
reform ex-governor of improper and
incompetent men to important offices;
therefore the yellow sheets may not
be quite so well pleased when the re-
movals take place.-Santa Fe New
Mexican.
The yellow" sheets are quite well
satisfied, thank you with the first two
important changes, whereby Acting
Governor Reynolds and Attorney Gen
eral Prichard walk the plank. If we
remember correctly it was Fakir
Reynolds who appointed the attorney
general, and we are only taking the
word Of the New Mexican that the
man was improper and incompetent,
else why should Governor Curry in
sist on the removal of both the ap-
poiatee and the man who appointed
him.

Yet as they utter it they glow with
spiritual pride and feel themselves in
the same boat as the Christians of
the Catacombs and the rest of the
noble army of martyrs; realiz-
ing that their cause is no tenet of an
inspired creed, but merely an embod-
iment of their w pet prejudices;
and their sacrifices on its behalf is
neither their own life nor wealth, but
merely the feelings and the sentiments
of other people. Such persons are
very fond of remarking that they owe
it to themselves to say exactly what
they think; it never seems to occur
to them that they likewise owe it to
others to conceal what they think, if
such thoughts be inimical to the gen
eral pleasantness and we'll being of
