HOWL GOES UP
FROM KICKERS
Object to the Councils Plan for Pro-
viding City with an Approach
to the Bridge.

A lamentable condition of affairs
still exists as regards an approach to
the new bridge, now open across the
Columbia. The new structure has
been open to the use of the public
for many weeks, and yet, save for a
circuitous and almost impossible ap-
proach there is no way of driving on
to the bridge from the Wenatchee
side.
Several weeks ago the city coun-
Gil accepted a donation of right-of-
way for the extension of Wenatchee
avenue from Messrs Olive and Gum,
who own the property near the bridge
across which the new street extern
sion to the apron of the bridge must
be made. An ordinance was passed
at the same time appropriating $2,-
600 from the general fund to cover
the cost of improving a piece of road
"a feet wide, leading from the pres
ent termination of Wenatchee avenue
up to the west end of the new bridge.

Goes for Ore.

The steamer North Star, belonging
to the Columbia & Okanogan Steam
boat company, left Wenatchee Satur-
day for the mouth of the Nespelem
River, to bring down a load of ore
from the mines of Nespelem, which
hitherto have shipped their output
over a fifty-mile wagon haul across
the Columbia and up the high
grades to the Central Washington
railroad at Almira or Wilbur. The
cargo that the first steamer is ex-
pected to bring out will be the first
large single shipment made from the
district. Some of the ore sent out
from Nespelem has run as high as
$500 to the ton, but the cost of get
ting it to smelter has been s125 per
ton.

The Anvil Chorus.

The chorus of knockers is in full
blast, and the returns are looked for
eagerly by this class of baseball en-
thusiasts, hoping against hope, that
Monroe will lose, and even when the
club Is in the lead in a game their
faces grow long and worried, but just
as soon as the word is received that
the team has suffered, that ape-like
smile adorns their countenance and
the stale old Knockers solo of 81 told
you So" is sung in unison, says the
Monroe Star.
If this class of people only had the
usual amount of brains which nature
has provided for mankind, they could
readily see that the persons who are
the most vitality interested in base
ball want winning team, and fur
Their, that 1t is to their interest finan-
cially to have such, and that 1T Is not
only a matter of civic pride with
them, but means much from a bust
ness standpoint.
Baseball is not at all different in
the business end from that of any
other business and to run lit success
fully 1t must be backed with the prop
er amount of capital. At present the
assets of the Monroe ASSOCIATION are
not nearly enough to run the club
and purchase new players, until re-
.ceipts are brought m from the gates.
If the association had at present
$1,000 the club could purchase play
ers which are absolutely needed to
strengthen the team, and thus place
1t among the other clubs who have
lost no time in doing this very thing.
An example of civic pride is
that of Columbus, where the business
men rallied when they saw the sad
condition Of their club, and within
two weeks had secured another man.
ager and with him practically bought
an entire new team; with the result
that today they have the satisfaction
and pride of seeing their club top
ping the league, having gone from the
bottom to the top in walk. Monroe
has good team, but there are at
Least three weak spots which can be
strengthened. and by so doing 1t will
equal any in the league. This weak
ness Is known to the men in control
of the club as well as to any outsider
but what can they do? The hackers
of the Monroe baseball club are as
anxious and even .more so than pos.
sibly any other individual in the
city. to have their team the best in
the league, but without the necessary
funds it is impossible. A merchant
cannot sell goods If he has no capita
to purchase the goods to sell. The
management cannot get good players
unless they have the capital to pur
chase them.
1t is a safe guess that not one
knocker of the team in this city has
or will contribute, one penny to buili
up baseball, and 1t is even more like
ly that they would rather contribute
to fund to destroy the game rather
than build 1t up.
