FOR A CLEANER PRESS

A letter was received this week from
the Friends Press Association, Balti-
more, Md, asking if this paper favored
the movement for cleaner press, the
promotion OF which the association has
urged for the past seventeen years.
While in no sense an evangelist along
this line, the editor Of this paper has
always made it rule not to print any
thing of an offensive nature, such as
the details of revolving crime. the re-
port of divorce trials and other court
trials that have to do with uncovering
of the moral obliquity OF certain class
of degenerates. Advertisements OF a
questionable character are and always
have been uniformly declined.

]. D. Ross, Seattle and Kent cat
tie buyer, recently bought from the
Hayes brothers their 100 acre ranch at
the mouth of Johnson canyon for
$1,000. Seven years ago the Hayes
brothers purchased this same piece Of
property for only 800, and at that
time the property was considered pref
ty high.
In just seven years the property has
increased in value at the rate OF almost
$1,000 per year. If this instance isn't
almost a record breaker, it will be
hard at least to beat. If the owners of
this ranch had done nothing else or
had no other means of earning money
the increase in the value of their land
alone would have made them very
good wages. The St. Paul road will
run through the place. -Ellensburg

NEVER HEARD AN ANTHEM

The way things we hear and see i'm
press US, and the way we convey that
impression to others is vastly different.
Sometimes one who knows little about
a subject explains it much more clear
ly than one who knows all about it. A
Texas cowboy attended city church
and heard an anthem which pleased
him very much. He was telling fell
low cowboy about it one day when he
was asked: What in thunder is an an
them anyway"
did you never hear an anthem9"
well it's about this way. If I was
to say to you, Jimmy, your pants are
holey," that wouldn't sound a bit like
an anthem, but if I was to say
Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy
your pants! Jimmy your pants Jim
my your pants are h-o-l-e-y, 10
ley, h-o-l-e-y. All
m-e-n-. Jimmy your pants are
h-o-l-e-y! h-o--l-e-y!

Favor Senator Gunn's hill

When Senator Gums bill came up
before the state senate last week from
the committee on revenue and taxation
it was adopted without opposition. The
bill provides for the exemption from
taxation of moneys and credits.
1t was necessary for the senate to
act on it because an amendment was
brought in, providing that no de-
auctions shall be allowed on account
of indebtedness owed.
There is little doubt that the bill
will pass the senate, it is said by those
who have taken an interest in the
measure.

Since Monday morning of this week
we have enjoyed the most delightful
weather. The sun has shone bright
and warm. A few birds have made
their appearance, and altogether the
appearances indicate that winter wealth
er was over. The snow is rapidly dis
appearing. The running of trains on
something like schedule time has been
resumed, building operations have been
resumed and every person one meets
looks and talks more cheerful.

The fruit growers Of the Wenatchee
valley are greatly stirred up, says the
World, over the proposed new horticul-
tural law. The bill before the legisla-
ture abolishes the office of fruit inspec-
tor and puts the regulation of horticul-
tural matters in the hands of a state Of
ficer. The fruit growers of the Wenat-
chez valley will protest against the
passage of the bill.

We can but say sad farewell
To one so young and true;
His loving savior called him home
Beyond the sky so blue.
His loving savior called him home,
His work on earth is done
And angels, waiting round the throne
For his last setting sun
Have borne his spirit far away
To lands where all is bright;
Where is no need of shining sun,
Where is no dark, no night.
There happy in his Savior's love
On that bright heavenly shore,
His humble part in Gods great place
He'll play forever more.

Good Roads Are Coming.

The first real step towards united ef-
fort to construct system Of good roads
in the country districts of Rock county
was begun at GAINESVILLE on Saturday
last. S. c.. Lancaster, consulting en-
gineer of the Office Of good roads, Wash
ton, spoke to the town chairmen there
Saturday and as result the town ofhc-
ers will ask the United States govern
ment to send a competent engineer and
road roller here to do the work.
The towns of Clinton, Plymouth, Gen.
ter, Fulton, Harmony, Beioit, Bradford
and Milton have appropriated sufficient
funds, together with the equal amounts
set aside by the Rock county board Of
supervisors, to build one mile of%gOod
roads each this season.
Mr.. Lancaster on Friday and Satur-
day inspected almost the entire county
in an automobile so that his talk with
the supervisors who will have charge of
the construction work of the new roads
was Of vital interest, as he was convers-
ant with the existing circumstances.
The question Of material was also dis
cussed, the manner in which it was to
be laid to secure the best result and the
methods followed by expert road build
ers. Mr.. Lancaster is thoroughly con-
versant with the subject he talked on
and his information was OF much value.
A competetent engineer will be secured
to take charge of the work already laid
out in the county and the law closely
followed. Good roads have really taken
form at last.

The church was crowded to its utmost
capacity with friends of Father Dooley.

the Catholic people of Edgerton. After
