TO RE-SURvEY
THE COLUMBIA
Senator Ankeny Still Working for
the Upper River.

Senator Ankeny is still working
upon the proposition of a re-survey
of the Upper Columbia river from
Kettle Falls. to Bridgeport, says the
Walla Walla Union. He is advised
that Major Chittenden, engineer in
charge, with headquarters in Seat
tie, has agreed early in the spring
to drive with the senator and others
interested in the proposition down
the river from Kettle Falls to
Bridgeport to look over the situation.
1t is understood that the war depart
ment takes the position that an item
for the survey of the river will have
to be Incorporated in the next river
and harbor bill, and then the engi-
neers can make survey and incl
dentally secure and present data as
to the resources Of the country tribu-
tary and furnish all available infor-
nation as to the amount of shipping
there would be when the river is
opened.
Major Chittenden has already rec
commended to the department the ex-
pnditure of $4,000 in making the sur
vey, but the department takes the po-
sition that the law as 1T now stands
does not empower he secretary OF
war to order state survey, although
it does not reflect in any way upon
the worthiness of the project, it hav-
ing been pronounced worthy by the
district engineer and by the board of
engineers for river and harbors.
The senator proposes to secure, If
possible, some definite action at the
coming session of congress. He has
already made one trip up the river
in boat for the purpose of investi-
eating the subject personally, and is
taking a deep interest in the PROPOSE
tion.

preparation of the state was INSULT

part of the Ellis contract work.

Friction exists in county ofiiiial-
dom.
There were SPARKS in the air at
the court house this afternoon.
A special meeting of the county
commissioners was called by Chair
man Saunders to discuss the question
of deputies and their duties, as per-
tains to the sheriff's Office.
Sheriff Webb and Constable Sim
mons were both present by request.
The commissioners think. that
Sheriff Webb employs too many dep
uties to do official work which he
himself has time to do. They say he
has one at Cashmere one at Leaven-
worth, and one elsewhere. They also
claim that he keeps Constable Sim
mons busy portion of his time as
jailer, when the law states that un-
less county sheriff sees fit to act
as iailer himself he shall personally
stand the expense of hiring an out
slider.
There were several lively tilts be-
tween Webb and Saunders, John Col
frey also getting mixed in.
You can hire all the deputies you
want to, but when the bills come up
we will pay them or not as we see
fit," said Chairman Saunders.
If you wan to be small about It,,
I'll do the work myself" retortej the
sheriff.
"We shall insist that Mr.. Simmons
either consent to do the janitor work
of the courthouse, which is a part OF
his duty as constable, or that he re-
sign," continued Chairman Sunders.
Couny Auditor Godfrey, who was
present at the meeting Yves jrawn in
to the discussion by remark of one
of the Commissioners: when there
was democrat on the board things
went on alright" said he; you say
you are doing all these things Tor

A Delightful Dance.

The concert and dance given by the
band last might proved one of the
happy events of the autumn. The
attendance was just right-nOt too
large for comfortable dancing, end
everyone seemed in excellent humor.
The concert preceding the dance,
especially the violin solo by Profes-
sor Haverskerke, was roundly ap~
plauded.
1t is hoped the band will see fit to
continue these enjoyable entertain
ments throughout the winter.

"Paying the Fare.

The city council is invited by the
local Baptist church to be present at
the theater tomorrow afternoon at
O'Clock and hear Evangelist Cairns
address to the men of .Wenatchee.
Paying the Fare is the subject
of the eminent divine's discourse. It
Is not a sermon, they say; just
straight talk to men.
At Los Angeles, DIR. Cairns spoke
to the council, who attended in
body. They liked the direct speech
so well that at their request DR..
Cairns delivered it on two subsequent
occasions to the young and old men
of that city.
Professor Barker will preside at
the piano tomorrow, and will sac-
company DR.. Cairns, who is an excel
lent singer as well as a preacher
with an international reputation.
