the first time that such action has
been urged by mayor.
Other matters, such as the city
water system, the grading of streets,
the city parks, fire protection and
city extension, have each been dis
cussed and rediscussed as their i'm
portance necessarily demands and
the policy of the administration
seems to be to carry out the work
as planned and started by the for
mer council.
The council and appointees this
year make up strong combination,
and, from the start made, the peo-
pie have reason to believe that some
live work will be done during the
coming year.
At any rate, results are what the
people are looking for, and from
time to time the World will record,
without frills, the actual work done
by the city's legislative body.
Here's hoping that when the
World makes up the balance sheet
at the end of the year, as the mouth
piece of the people, it may say well
done, thou good and faithful serv-
ants, enter thou into the Joy of thy
lord" and accept the thanks of a
gratified public.

is A CHANGE DESIRABLE?

| Is a change in the police force OF
Wenatchee at the present time de-
sirable? In other words, would the
peace and dignity and the majesty
of the law be upheld any better if
there were a change?
To decide this question, no better
criterion from which to judge can be
taken than the record of the past
year. Has the present force been eff
ficient? Have the present officers
carried out the will of the mayor and
the council?
Is the police system any better
now than it was year ago when
you couldn't find an officer inside of
half an hour? Not that this carries
with it any disparagement of the for
mer police officers. But it serves to
emphasize the importance of system
in the police regulations.
Neither does this carry with it
any disparagement of any of the can
didates who may be before the city
council. .+ =, .
No burgiaries, no holdups, and
the successful apprehension OF prac-
tically every bad man who has come
into the city. The police system of
the past year has been virtually
fine-toothed comb.
The reappointment of the present
force would be recognition of merit.

THE MAYORS MESSAGE.

The mayor, in his message to the
new council last night, took a stand
that is unique in the history of the
city of Wenatchee. Laying stress
upon the moral question in this
city, he voiced his own convictions in
the matter and took into considera-
tion the sentiment of the people as
well. One Of the strongest points in
his message was the following: 1.-THE
harboring of dens of vice for the
purpose of attracting weak and vic
ious minded characters, in order to
get their money in circulation, I
most heartily condemn"
An investigation of the police rec
ordS of Wenatchee will show con-
clusively to any man who desires to
look into the question, where is To-
Gated the rendezvous of the criminal
class in this city. The matter is too
well known to admit of any argu-
ment. A second matter of interest,
small but of Importance, is the idea
of a rock crusher for the purpose
of putting the streets in proper con-
dition. Experience of other cities
in the use of a machine of this kind
has been most satisfactory, and We
natchee may profit by the example
of others. A third matter of impor-
lance, which has never before been
taken up by a council in this city,
is the question of public library.
Only a small reading room is now
being kept up, and this is being done
through the unselfish labors of few
public-spirited women. A fourth
important item pertaining to grow
ing city is the division of the city
into wards. For over two years this
city has been large enough for this
and under the state law should have
been divided into wards, but this is

1.-THE WENATCHEE WAY"

The Wenatche Way of doing things
was shown yesterday by the manner
in which the business men of the
town took interest in the coming de-
bate between the local high school
and the high school of Spokane. Yes
terday morning it was breezed around
that no one was going from Wenat-
chez to bolster up the local team
of debaters, who go down to battle
with the Spokaners for the honors
of the platform.
Accordingly, H. L. Webster busted
himself with a subscription paper,
and in short time got enough
money to send delegation of ten
boys to represent the high school in
particular and the city in general.

Triumphant American Optimism

Optimistic philosophy is the domi-
nant note in American life. 1t per-
meates all classes. The grumbler,
the calamity bowler, the predicter
of evil, the man who thinks that the
country is going to the dogs and
that American institutions are de-
teriorating is the exception, not the
rule.
Who can ever estimate what we
owe to that splendid wave of optim-
ism which has swept over this coun-
try since the panic.
Everywhere we hear strong bust
ness men talking of optimism, try
ing to reassure the people, cautioning
them against the fatality of spread.
ing the pessimistic note.
The optimism of the press has had
a wonderful effect on the masses
especially the ignorant and the timid
In Chicago, especially, many of the
business and social organizations
have done a splendid work in allay.
ing the fears of the people.
If the recent panic had occurred
twenty-five years ago, it would have
been very much more serious. Peo
pie were very much more pessimistit
then than they are today. The leav
en- of optimism is working marvel
Gus change in our people. We are
more hopeful, more confident.
There are not so many people to
day as there were formerly who be
lieve that things are going TO the
dogs. We have more faith in our.
selves, more faith in the country
more faith in that great creative
principle which finally rights al
wrongs, and in which in spite of al
disaster and seeming wrong, finally
brings harmony out of discord.
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1908-01-15

Our people have unbounded conf
dence in Americas future, and this
vigorous American optimism will ul-
timately make any very extended A.
nancial panic impossible. Our re-
sources are too vast, our people too
gritty, too resourceful, too inventive
too determined, too hopeful, to long
be materially affected by any finan-
cial disturbance.
Nowhere in the world is there
crowded together such untold re-
sources, such vast unexplored wealth,
as in this country; and nowhere else
have the inventive, resourceful IA
culties of man been developed to
such an extent as here in America.
And better than all this, is the fact
that the hopefulness of the individu-
al matches our national optimism,
for here no youth is hampered or
manacled in his race for success.
His only limits are in himself.
We have as yet scarcely scratched
the surface of our vast resources.
Even during the recent panic we
knew that the confidence of our peo-
pie as to our future greatness and
grandness was not shaken in the
least. Everyone knew that it was
only a temporary storm: that be-
hind it the sun of American progress
and enterprise was shining and
would soon dissipate all the clouds.
Running all through the American
people is a great underlying philoso-
ply of optimism. Hope. not despair,
carries the American banner.-Sue-
cess.

VIOLENT STORM FATAL TO TEN
Wide Strip of Farming Country In Mis-
sissppi Is Laid Waste.

Wesson, Miss, Feb. Six persons
were killed outright by a tornado
which laid waste a strip of farming
country three-quarters of mile wide
and several miles long just north of
here yesterday. Four persons were
fatally injured and many others were
slightly hurt when their homes were
blown down. A negro who arrived
here about dark brought news of the
storm. Three physicians started in
carriages for the stricken district.
The dead and injured are all white,
excepting one unidentified victim.
The tornado struck about 4 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. 1t came from the
south west and disappeared into the
norteast. At least a dozen homes of
white families were blown down. The
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Maddox was
blown almost completely off the prem
