RAILROAD
COMMISSION
IN SESSION
j. G. Lawrence Today Hears Petition
of Malaga Residents for New
Station.

J. G. Lawrence of the state rail-
road commission is in Wenatchee to-
day for the purpose of ascertaining
the needs of this section of the coun-
try in reference to railroad facilities.
Harry Fairchild, another member of
the commission, was in town this
morning, and, after looking into the
local needs, departed on the west
bound passenger today.
Mr.. Lawrence is holding the hear
ing this afternoon in regard to the
needs of Malaga. The people there
are asking for new depot and sta
tion agent. Up to the time of going
to press this evening the commission
had not completed it's deliberations.
A ladies waiting-room has been
ordered placed in the depot at We
natchee. which is all of the changes
that have been requested. The rail-
road company has promised to begin
work on their new 5000 depot in
Wenatchee by October 1, hence it is
felt that the present facilities will
do until that time.
Several new stations have been or
dered along the line of the Great
Northern between Wenatchee and
Spokane.

From The Advance.

Professor Melander, of the depart
ment of zoology, Pullman agricultural
college, who conducted experiments
here last season for the destruction
of the codling moth, is here again
and will spray three or four orchards
this season for experiment purposes.
He will again have charge of the
spraying in the Lanham orchard and
probably will also do the spraying in
the Garrison orchard, adjacent to the
Lanham place. He will also make ar
rangements for several other or
chards. In view of the fact that the
object of the coming to this valley
OF educating the people to properly
care fer their orchards it would seem
that growers should watch his work
here very carefully. Those who were
in attendance at his demonstrations
last year express themselves as amply
repaid for their time and it will result
n their saving more fruit than ever
before. 1t is now tine to spray, and
Prof. BIelander was here all week.
For q number OF years the Wash
ington state College has been study
ing tae codIing moth. In the course
Of the investigations arsenate Of lead
vas found tc give the best satisfaction
as q spray and the usual number Of
sp2ayings necessary was found to be
three or four. The main purpose Of
last years work and also this is to
demonstrate how easily the codling
Moth can be kept in check by the
proper spraying methods. At the same
time last year tests were made of
the value of the dust sprays and the
newer brands of arsenate of lead. The
bulletin issued last winter, by Profes-
sor Melander, after concluding his
work here, tells of the results accom-
plished. 1t is as follows:

PROF. NlE[ANDER
AGAIN HERE
Will Have Charge Of the Spraying at Lam
ham Orchards. Experimenting For
the Destruction of the Codling Moth.

I Although the codling moth has
been present in the upper Wenatchee
district for score of years it Is only
recently that the pest has pervaded
the valley. The codling moth Is now
considered regular factor in Or
charding, and every Wenatchee
grower makes some effort to spray.
Nevertheless, in those orchards where
the moth has been present half
dozen years the best determined eff
forts have saved but three-fourths of
the crop. The explanation for this is
that growers have employed the old
fashioned methods in vogue before
they emigrated to Wenatchee. They
have used low pressure pumps, and
have aimed for a concentrated misty
spray. They regularly have given the
second spraying ten DAYS or two
weeks after the first according to the
old rule, aad G1y subsequent spray
ings have been given whenever con-
venient.
1T was to demonstrate the value
of experimental methods Of investiga-
ton that we determined to apply the
knowledge of the cOdling moth gained
tkgitA tic SNAitiS u ~ HAAtfS tOtl COntit-
tions to the important apple district
at Weaatchee. Two orchards were
selected, the first where the moth
had been pre~ent for many years, the
other in the lover valley.
MIR. z. 4 7 anham has had a hard
struggle wit' the codling moth. His
ten year o34 orchard has been regu-
larly sprayed in what was generally
conceded to be an approved manner.
A gasoline engine pump, working at
14G pounds and fitted with Eermorel
nozzles, was employed. The Eagle
brand of arsenate of lead was used
in the proportion of three pounds to
fifty gallons. In 1906 four sprayings
were given yet the loss from worms
was over 1900 boxes or 40 per cent.

every democrat who ever held office
in Chelan County discharged his
duty fearlessly, conscientiously and
efficiently.
We believe in self-government
and to that end we favor the enact
ment of a law whereby the county
commissioners from each district
will be elected by the people of the
district for which the commissioner
is selected to serve.
We believe in frequent recurrence
to fundamental principles, one OF
which is that just governments de-
rive their power from the consent
of the governed" and that all pow

therefore, heartily endorse the di-
rect primary law. We believe il
should be given faif and impartial
trial, and wherever defects may be
discovered they should be remedied
by future legislatures until the law
becomes perfect in detail as well as
in principle. We especially endorse
the non-partisan judiciary feature of
this law, and believe it's spirit as
well as it's letter should be obeyed.
We interpret the spirit of the law

At the democratic county con-
vention held in this city Friday af-
ternoon, a plank commencing Theo-
dOre Roosevelt, but endorsing Will
lism Jennings Bryan for the prrsi
dency was adopted.
The platform as arranged by the
committee on resolutions was adopted
by the convention with no apparent
dissension until the clause favoring
local option was reached. There
was a warm debate on this score, and
it looked as if the plank might not
survive the convention. But after a
heated argument, in which J. G..
Fritz and A. H. Blake of LeavenwOrth
took the stand against the measure,
and Fred Reeves strongly urging its
acceptance and defending the clause,
the plank was finally adopted by a
vote of "a in favor of local option to
20 against the measure.

the Ancient and Honorable Knights
of the Road, made his first official
visitation to Police Court No. 105 Of
Wenatchee this morning. A. Weary

entail Degree, and extended him a
very cordial invitation not to show
his face in Wenatchee again.

WITNESSES NOT There,
City Appeal Cases Strike Snag in
District Court.

When the district court docket Of
the day was called this morning, the
list consisted entirely of city appealed
cases, and City Attorney Dreaming was
caught at disadvantage. About one
out Of every three witnesses called,
answered to their names. The others
were conspicuous for their absence.
Regardless of this handicap, the city
attorney waded in, and with the few
witnesses present, proceeded to try
bottoms" fame, for maintaining a
nuisance. Five Of the witnesses in this
case were missing. and the sheriff was
given bench warrants for them. 1t
was found that one witness had re-
moved to Ohio, another. a woman OF
Oklahoma, and the others were In
dams living on the reservation. Sub
poenas had been served upon all of
them by the sheriff, but the whole
bunch disregarded the order, and are
now out of the jurisdiction of the
court.
Just before noon, the attorneys closed
their argument in the Stephenson case.
The jury walked right into the jury
room and walked right out again with
verdict of guilty on the count charged.
This afternoon the case of the city
against Bertha Woodall will be heard.
Thls is case with doubtful trimmings.
The Woodan girl worked for CIV Will
hits, Jointist and restaurant keeper
and were arrested together for selling
liquor. Willitts entered plea of guilty
and served his time. and it is claimed
by both he and his attorney that they
made an agreement with the city at
torney, whereby the woman should be
let alone, and the complaint against
her dismissed on condition that Will
hits, the principal defendant, should
plead guilty. If any such agreement
o6
the woman will be on trial this after
noon. Both parties are colored.

THREE MATCHES FOR GoTCH
Champion Will Appear in Good Bouts
In Kansas City.

Kansas City, April 23.-Manager w.
u. Scov1lle of the Missouri Athletic
club is planning a hard campaign for
champion Frank Gotch. He will prob
ably appear here inside of the next
month In series Of three matches.
Scoville plans to have Gotch meet
H1almar Lundin in the first match.
This will be a handicap affair and to
win the champion will have to pin the
giant Swede's shoulders to the mai
three times in an hour. II will he a
mixed affair, Greco Roman and catch
as-catch-can. Lundin has already ar
cepted the terms offered and he Will
De here shortly to begin training for
the struggle.
There has been so much talk Of an
other match between Tom jenkins and
the champion that Scoville has offered
a big purse for the third meeting he
tween this pair. Jenkins is undoubt-
edIy anxious to get another try for the
SSnamplonsh1p: When he met Gotch
here about eighteen months ago he
was the champion and he demanded
all Kinds Of concessions, He wouldn't
come here unless he was Guaranteed
certain amount, win, lose or draw
and he had to have the currency in his
descend to enter the ring. It's differ.
emit now. He is willing to tackle the
champion on winning and losing ba sis
and he writes that he will make =
goodiy side bet in order to secure the
match. Gotch has written ScoviI1e r.
arrange all the matches he cares r.
and he will do the wrestling. In his
letter to the M. A. C. manager he
doesn't even bar Hackenschmid.'
The third match for the champior
has not been decided upon. but it Ia,
been suggested that Gotch meet EraS
Beell and Americas both on the samt
| night. OF course. Gotch may balk or
meeting two such men in the sam.
ring, but the match is possible. Amer
