], ], Brownies SCHEME
Of CAPITOL REMOVAL
Being Discussed by Legislator Agrees
With Senator Turner Oh the Governor
ship-Believes Mead Should Go.

State Law Librarian c. Will Shat
fer was in the city last Saturday on
private business. Speaking of af-
fairs at Olympia, Mr.. Shaffer said
that the activity in and around the
state house incident to the legislative
session had commenced. He stated
that he was really too busy to take
the time to come over here, but the
business he had to transact could not
go over until after the session so he
took couple of days off at this time,
but would have to make up the time
some way or other to keep up with
his work.
1.-THE capitol removal" he stated,
was pretty well settled by the build
ing of the governor s~mansion, but
even yet there are rumblings of
threatened attempts of removal to
some other more convenient place
than Olympia. J. ]. Browne, of Spo-
kane, and president of the Columbia
Valley bank of this city, has advanced
a rather novel and plausible plan of
capitol settlement. His idea is for
the state to acquire large tract of
land, four or five miles square, some
place on the Sound, easily accessible
by rail or water, and for the state to
there locate its capital city, and ulti-
mately have there all it's state in
situations. Various parts of the land
could be plated and sold, and from
this source alone the state could de-
rive enough revenues to pay for all
the expenses incurred in erecting it's
buildings, grading the streets, beau

THIEVES HAVE
A SWEET TOOTH
BAD MEN ENTERED CENTRAL
PRODUCE co. WAREHOUSE
LAST NIGHT AND STOLE SACK
OF SUGAR.-FTRED UPON,

Officer Inscho, last night about II
o'clock. while making his rounds of
the alleys discovered two men back
of Wiester's store. They were going
at a rapid pace, and when command
ed to halt by Officer InschO they
dropped the sugar and started away
on a run. One went down First
street and the other scaled the high
board fence going into the o. K.
barn. While on top of the fence
the officer took a shot at the man,
but evidently missed him. They
both escaped, but the officers have a
good description of the men; intact,
the officers think that they know the
men and that they live here.
The goods stolen belong to the
Wenatchee Grocery company. En-
trance was effected on the east side
of the warehouse, where the, door
leading to the basement had been
pried open.

tifying the grounds, and the state
would have beautiful capital city.
In this way, by having all of the
states institutions located within a
radius of four or five miles the peo-
pie would be saved hundreds of dol
lars year in the cost of the manage
ment of such institutions.
Anent the governorship, Mr.. Shat
fer agrees in the main with the po-
sition of Ex-senator Geo. Turner.
He is inclined to the belief that Gov
Mead does not hold over. THE con,
stitution says Governor Mead shall
hold until his successor Is elected and
qualified. His successor is elected
and there is nothing provided for
him to do to qualify The constitu-
ton does provide, however, that the
governor shall reside at the state cap
itol, but he could take his time about
establishing his actual family resi-
dence there, no doubt, provided that
it was not an unreasonable time.
Governor Mead moved his family back
to Bellingham last fall. CO0yOve
could not assume the Office Outal Of
the state, possibly, but he is elected.
and there is nothing for him to do
to qualify. Then under the consti-
tuition. which provides that in case
of a death, resignation, removal or
disability of the governor to act, the
lieutenant governor shall perform
the functions of that Office, 1t strikes
me that Mr., Hay is the proper person
to hold the Office.

GAVE 4 CHRIST
MAS SERMON
REV. KIRKHOPE POINTED OUT
EFFECTS OF MODERN CHRIS
TIANITY IN AMERICAN LIFE.

America has been providentially
chosen by God for the purpose of
giving the world the highest ideals
of Christian living" said the Rev.
VIM. Kirkhope in his sermon at the
Presbyterian church yesterday morn
ing. "The refusal of churches to
condone practices in the lives of it's
members which are not frowned upon
in European countries and to insist
on the rigid application of approved
standards of morality are evidences
of this said he, in the course of the
development of his theme on the sub
ject of the influences of the Christ
spirit in civilization.
Starting with the story of the cir
cumstances attending the birth of
Christ, he traced the growth of the
Christian ideal, and showed how it
had become the conscious instrument
in producing a milder and more ra-
tional view of life He attributed
the growth of a more humane spirit
and a deeper sympathy with the I'M
fortunate to the influence of the
Christ spirit Referring to the bru-
tai practices of flogging and other
tortures which were employed in the
army and navy less than a century
ago, and to the brutal punishments
which were characteristic of the
middle ages, he asserted that the un-
necessary infliction of pain by cruel
punishments always had the opposite
effect intended. Instead of reform
ing the culprit, it made him insensi-
BILE to the finer instincts of humanity
and developed spirit of Indifference,
recklessness and criminality. In
fact, said he, many crimes have
been committed in the name of civil
government"
the thoughts and feelings which are
suggested by the approach of the
Christmas festivities and was full of
the spirit of kindness and sympathy,
which characterizes the man. Mr..
Kirkhope has made many friends
during the short time he has been
supplying the Presbyterian pulpit.
and, not feeling sure whether he
would be permitted to return again
the following Sabbath, he took occa-
sion to thank the congregation for
the many courtesies extended, and to
assure them that he felt amply re-
paid for any Inconvenience to which
he was subjected in reaching them
from his home in Seattle, in the gen.
erous words of frienjliness and en-
couragement which he had received
| from time to time. The feeling of
lWenatchee people is that Mr.. Kirk
hope Is an exceptionally able preach
| er, and man in whom the generous
impulses predominant, which pre-
eminently fit him for the pastorate.

THREE LOTTERIES
FOR IDAHO
THE COEUR d'ALENE, LEHMI AND
BLACKFOOT RESERVATIONS TO
BE THROWN OPEN TO SETTLE
MENT.
Special to World.
CnOkano Wash

Special to World.
Spokane, Wash, Dec. 21.-Uncle
Sam will have three personally con-
Quoted lotteries in the state of Ida
no next year, when, it is announced
in semi-Ofiicial reports from Wash
ingtOn, D. c., the government will
open the Couer d'Alene, the Lehmi
Indian reservations to hOmesteaders.
1t is also likely that the Spokane and
Yakima reservations in this state will
be opened within the next fourteen
months. The Couer d'Alene reserve,
east of Spokane, contains aproxi-
mately 100000 acres of land, of
which 10000 acres will be awarded
to settlers. Six hundred Indians on
the reserve will receive 10000 acres
having also the first choice of loca-
ton.
The Lehmi reservation is in the
GENITAL part of the state, bordering
on the Montana line. 1t contains
much good farming land. What is
gone to the Blackfoot reservation,
where its members are being cared
for by the government. The Black
foot resrve is veritable desert of
sage brush, but the government is
building large irrigation plant
in the P0catello district in the south
eastern part of the state, and there
will be ample water to supply moist
ure to the land on thousands of acres.
The Yakima AMI Spokane reserves
are west and northwest of Spokane
and much of the land will come und-
er irrigation projects.
The government has taken up the
work Of all0tting the lands to the
survivors of the three tribes in Ida
no and each member will receive a
tract. The allotments are to be held
in trust by the government. Where
allotments are made to children the
title viii not be clear until they be-
come of age. This is to prevent the
spectators from robbing the Indians

MAY USE ELECTRICITY.

]. ]. Garrett, one of the pioneers
of Douglas, was in the city today.
He came down on the boat yester-
day intending to take the night train
to Seattle, but missed connections
and went out on No. /. Mr.. Garrett
states that the building of the new
road up the coulee is going to result
in the building Of fine little city
at Douglas. He says that the senti-
ment seems to be that Waterville is
going to have an electric road to
connect with the branch, taking the
power from Chelan Falls The rail-
road company owns the big power
proposition, and II this is utilized
and led into the Big Bend country.
Mr. Garrett says that p great deal OF
the power will be used by the far
mers in running their chop mills and
other purposes On the farms.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24-MembeTs OF
the Metropolitan Turf Association who
were seen yesterday about the probable
effect OF the resolution adopted by the
COney Island Jockey Club prohibiting
all betting, did not seem to think the
present turf situation a very bright
one.
Some said, asking that their names
be not quoted, that the resolution seem
ed a great hardship, for it might mean
that they must keep away from the
Sheepshead Bay course during the elev-
en- days racing, fearing that il they at
tend the meeting as mere lockers on
they may be accused of making Wagers.
The absence OF, say, 100 members of
the Metropolitan Turf Association, as
sumiug that so many have been reg
ular attendants at the tracks would
mean also that about 500 men formerly
employed by them viii not be seen at
the course. and This would mean a loss
OF from go to $3.50 each day to the
Coney Island Jockey Club. This IS an
important item, and would pay about
100 per cent of the purses Of the over
