 The trip which the president made to Indianapolis cost about $1 900 and his other trips have brought the total up so that his travelling expenses for the present fiscal year will not exceed $S,OOO.
 There has been material change in the style in which the president travels. When the railroads furnished the transportation all arrangements were lavish in the extreme, the rail roads wing with each other in the en- tertainment provided. Special trains were not uncommon, and special schedules were frequently prepared for the president. Now it Is different The president, paying his own way travels quietly. His Pullman bills are not large, his car is hitched to regular trains, the service is simple, the meals plain, and the president enjoys him self just as much.

 question interested the country last
 session when. upon the enforcement of the anti-pass legislation, the rail- roads were prohibited from continuing the old practice of furnishing the pres ident private car or special train
 when he desires to leave Washington.
 It was roughly estimated that the president could get along on $25 900 year as travelling expenses, and con gress appropriated that amount as an experiment. The president recently left Washington for his summer home at Oyster Bay, and the close of the present fiscal year will find him there. . It is found that when allowance is

SCHOOL NOTES

We are in the new building and We
have not heard one pupil say that he
was sorry of it.
Charles Vest on Monday entered the
ninth grade, which now has total en-
rollment of fourteen.
New pupils in the first grade are:
Wilbur Jennings, Wesley Van De Grit.
Frederick Lancaster, Blanche Brusha,
Laura Hathaway, Olive Blankenship,
Ethel Shore, Irwin Null, Clark Marble
and Rex Allen. Ethel Chapman en-
rolled in the second grade Monday.
Because the number of the tenth
grade had permanently decreased to
one pupil it was decided to discontinue
the work for the year. Next year there
will be a goodly number ready for the
tenth grade work and the grade can be
added then. One reason why the
grade was not larger this year is that
quite number, not knowing that there
would be a tenth grade here this year,
went to Wenatchee and elsewhere for
the years work.
The reassignment of grades and
teachers and the enrolment OF pupils
is as follows:
First grade, Miss Human; enroll
ment 81.
Second grade, Miss Jewell; enroll
ment SO.
Third and Fourth B grades, Mrs.
Farrell; enrolment AZ.
Fourth A and Fifth grades, Mrs. Ma
varre; enrolment SO.
Sixth and Seventh grades, Mrs. Far
mer; enrolment Al.
Eighth and Ninth grades, Mr.. Wolf;
enrolment Dc.
Total grades 9, teachers 6, and pu-
pills 233.
Please excuse John. He had work
to do" All, yesl But you must re-
member that if he is to do satisfactory
work in school he must have his time.
So far as possible give him his time
and make him responsible for the
proper use OF that time. One day
absence usually means two days failure
and leaves him only possible go per
cent if every other recitation in the
month is absolutely perfect. Constant
and prompt attendance are absolutely
essential to successful high school
work, and only by the hearty co-opera-
ton OF teacher and parent in this, as in
other matters, can the best results be
obtained. Northwest Journal of Edu-

Attracted to Cashmere by the Big Apples

A. c. Dallach arrived here last week,
coming all the way from Chicago to
buy land in the vale OF Cashmere. He
said that he had pictured the valley as
beautiful place, watered by sparkling
mountain streams, Astounding in birds
and flowers, and green with orchards
loaded down with fruit. In nothing
was he disappointed. The apples for
which he paid 10 cents each in Chica-
go are growing right here on trees,
thousands OF bushels OF them.
Visiting the orchard OF Dan Woods,
Mr.. Dallach was busy with his camera
long time. When asked why he
took so many pictures he said he
wanted to carry documentary evidence
with him when he went back to his
friends for fear they would think he
was trying to rival Baron Munchausen.
Mr.. Dallach is acquainted with the
fruit regions Of Oregon and Michigan,
but pronounced the vale OF Cashmere
the best ever" He has returned to
the east but will soon make his home
here. Cashmere Record.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1907.
TO the Voters of LeaVenwOTth

At the election to be held on the Sd
day of December there will be chosen
a mayor, treasurer and four council
men-one councilman holding over.
So far as surface indications go, very
little interest is being taken in this
matter. That the interest will not be
as great as it should be, is indicated
by the small number OF voters that
have registered.
1t is to the interest Of the property
owners of this town to have an eco
nomical business administration of its
affairs, and it is up to them to register
and also to vote. They should do
more than that, they should take an
active part in the selection OF the right
kind of men for the different Offices.
What the town council needs is a
few business men. Men who have
shown that they possess enough ability
to manage their own affairs success
fully. 1t is scarcely to be supposed
that man who has never made sue
cess of his own affairs can make sue
cess in managing the affairs OF the
public.
If the same careful rules are adj
hered to in managing the affairs of the
town that the prudent business man
employs in shaping his private affairs,
it must inevitably follow that there will
be no great cause for complaint.
Thus far the affairs of our town have
not been managed in a way to call
for severe criticism. 1t is our candid
belief that in some matters the council
has acted hastily and without mature
consideration, and thus spent some
money that might have been saved.
The loss to the taxpayers has, how
ever, not been great. Still every great
evil has had its beginning in small
things. Rome was not built in day.
Neither did the extravaganza and cor
ruption that was uncovered in San
Francisco develop in week or a
month. If eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty, it is no less the price
of clean, economical town government.
Let US have an impartial enforce
ment OF the laWs-of all the laws
without fear or favor No steps back
ward. Let the watchword be onward
and upward, to the end that Leaven-
worth will be better place in which
to bring up family.
Let US have an economical admins
tration OF the towns affairs. To adj
minister the affairs OF this village ought
not to cost over $4,000 year. We
have the cost OF village government in
some eight or ten towns, some larger
and some smaller, and in none OF them
does the cost run over that amount,
and in some OF them it is very much
less
