The recent action OF certain New

seat in pullman car to 81 for the
trip from Buffalo to New York City
has resulted in complaint being FLED
with the public service commission.
The former price of the seat for the
same distance was $3.50 and in the
complaint, attendtion is called to the
fact that from Chicago to Minneapolis

similar accommodations is 81, while
the distance from Buffalo to New

There is a criminal statute prohib-

law provided that all election laws
relating to general elections should

the old law is a criminal statute

How Wheat Will Move.

Spokane, Wash, Nov. 2O.-Bank-
ers, exporters and wheat growers in
the Northwest have formed plans
which assure the financing of the
grain crop of the Spokane country,
and as a result more than $3O,0OO,-
900 worth of wheat will flow to Pu-
get Sound and Pacific coast points
for shipment to Europe, Africa and
Asia. Shipments from the Inland
Empire to tidewater will begin at
once and cease only when all the
wheat has been drained from the
fields and warehouses in Eastern
Washington, Northern Idaho ,and
Northeastern Oregon. Advices have
been received by bankers in Spo-
kane and in the Palouse and Big
Bend wheat belts that vessels are in
readiness at Puget Sound and CO.
lumbia river points to receive the
grain as rapidly as it can be un-
loaded from the cars. The plan Of
financing the grain movement is
based entirely on the willingness Of
the exporters to pay for the wheat
more promptly than they are ac-
customed to under ordinary circum-
stances. A large part OF the move
ment VIII be financed by credits and
the shortening of the period for
which these credits must be carried
by the local banks. enables them
to handle a much greater proper
tion of the business than they
would otherwise be able to do under
existing conditions.

I enclose a clipping from a Spokane
paper of Nov. 8. If Professor Drake
is correctly quoted, he is either a
fool or traitor to his country. If
the former, he is to be pitied; il
the latter, he should be shot for
treason. In either event he should
not be allowed to teach the coming
jurists of the country the law. as

sret that the big gathering OF stock
men could not have remained over

meeting of the club in body.
Just before the adjournment yes

ed resolutions extending a vote OF
thanks to Forest Supervisor Shelter

way In which he had disposed of the
delicate questions of alloting grazing

They also passed a resolution ap-
proving the policy of the financial
men of the Inland Empire in taking
steps to protect the money inter-
ests of the country by the issue of

The sheepmen estimate that this
number will increase 70 per cent or
reach a grand total of over 200, 900
head. As sheep are worth about So

mean that next spring there will be

ENORMOUS MAJORITY
FOR JOHN cELLATLY
Scheble Defeated at Yesterdays Primary by
Three to One-People Flock to Polls
and Pile Up Magnificent Vote
For Their FavOrite.

The Daily Worlds forecasts are
| VERIFIED
John A. Gellatly is to be Wenat-
chee's next mayor.
His tremendous majority at yes
terday's primary demonstrates en-
phatically that he is the peoples
| choice, and that in him they see
man who is to work for them and
| with them in the upbuilding of
| Greater and a Better Wenatchee.
Long before the count was finish
ed 1t was apparent that Gellatly was
| the chosen nominee. At 1850 all
ballots had been checked up, sorted
and counted, and the vote was found
to stand:
Gellatly (Republican 1922
Scheble (Republican) -. .... .109
Fuller Peoples Party) ....... IS
Mr.. Gellatly had retired earlier in
the evening, and did not learn how
the vote stood until this morning.
Gellatly is Gratified.
When seen this morning by a
World reporter, the mayoralty nomi-
nee said: "Yes;I am gratified, of
course, at the loyal support of the
people at yesterdays primary. At
present there is not much to say for
publication; my seven years Of resi-
dence here has brought acquain-
tance with the people of the COM
munity, and their expression of con-
fdence at the polls yesterday makes
it unnecessary for me to do much
talking. No; have
made no prediction promises, con-
cerning either the police or the en-
gineering department; and in case
of my election appointments to these
various municipal departments will
be made in cooperation with the
council
1t was generally conceded yester-
day that the race was to Gellatly,
but the amazing plurality came as
| distinct surprise even to his most OPP
timistic adherents. That Mr.. Gel
| latly will be formally elected at the
finals in December goes without say
ing, though the vote at that time
will be divided with Mr.. Fuller. But
even as it is, Fuller would have to
draw not only all Of Scheble's vote
but 100 or more of Gellatly's in or
der to defeat the latter.
Hence Mr.. Gellatly's election is as
sured.
The contest yesterday passed off
serenely, the voters appearing at the
polling place with quiet regularity,
and casting their ballots for the man
of their choice. There was no dis
turbance of any kind, and at mid
night the streets were quiet as
graveyard.
