MUST KEEP
THEM CLEAN
Mayor Says Alleys Are Public Thor
Oughfares and Not Private
Dumping Grounds.

Wenatchee is to be a clean city
The mayor and city health officer
made trip through the alleys of the
city the other day and personally no.
tilted many of the property owners
of what was expected in regard to
their premises. I'VE are going to
make another trip up the alleys again
in few days. said Mayor Gellat1y
today. "a crew of men is out now
cleaning up all of the Uttered places.
The alleys are public thoroughfares,
and not places to be used as private
dumping grounds. Hence it is ex-
pected that the alleys when once
cleaned will be kept in order by the
adjacent property owners.
"a number of garbage cans are be-
ing made which will be placed in dill
ferent parts of the city.
This. together with a city scaven-
ger, which we now nave. ought to
place everyone in a position where
there is no excuse for being slovenly.

MONEY IN FRUIT
"WashingtOn May Become Leading
Fruit Producing Section i'm the
World" Says ThOrnber.

Spokane, Wash, April 1.-"Full
crops of fruits from the orchards
that are now planted in the state
would yield from $40,000,000 to
6O,000,000, and If we continue to
before Washington will be the great
est fruit-producing district in the
world"
w. S. Thornber, professor of hor-
ticulture in the Washington State
college at Pullman, makes the fore
going significant statement in re-
view of the fruit-growing in Wash
ington, adding:
"The state has nearly 100000
acres Of orchard fruits, and enough
trees have been sold to plant 10000
acres this spring, and If half of the
land is planted to orchard crops
during the next five years that is be-
ing prepared for that purpose, Wash
ington will more than double it's
present acreage
Professor Thornber shows the pos
sibilities of the lands in the imme-
diate vicinity of Spokane by men
tioning that the gross receipts for an
acre of dewberries, grown under irri-
CATION, was s1,651, and that nearly
a third of an acre of strawberries
yielded 5000 worth of fruit in the
spring crop and more than 500
worth in the fall, making gross
yield of 5000 the acre.
The remarkable growth of the in
dustry during the last six years is
striking evidence of the many op-
portunities open to ambitious invest
ors and persistent and skilled home
builders, the professor says, "and, }"
he adds, ''it is the opinion of the
most conservative minds of our state
that in a few years fruit growing
win far exceed all other productive
industries of Washington.

LaFoIlette is i'm Town.

La Toilette is in town, not the
senator but cousin of his, Jerry
La Toilette of Blakesburg, Iowa. Mr..
La Toilette is naturally proud of his
distinguished relative, and when
asked what he thought of his possibi-
lities for the presidency said: IF he
makes up his mind to get into the
race, have an idea it. will be a warm
one. Bob is no gutter on anything
that he undertakes.
Another cousin of Senator La Fol-
lette resides at Waa Waa, Washing
ton, and there ffe other branches of
the family at Almira, Spokane and in
Oregon.
Mr. La Toilette states that all La
Follettes can trace their lineage to a
family which came over from France
at the time of the Huguenot war.
J. T. Jones of the Wenatchee Prod
uce company is also distant relative
of the senator from Wisconsin.

CLOSED GIANT
ORCHARD DEAL
4. c. Dallach Closes Big CONTRACT
With Seattle In
tereStS.

In Seattle yesterday A. G. Dallach
closed one of the largest deals which
the Orchard Growing company have
made. Contracts were arranged
with the Burke interests for the
handling of their entire tract on the
east side of the Columbia, amounting
to 210 acres. This will give Wenat-
chez one of the largest individual
orchards in the state. Work will be
started Immediately, and will give
employment to a large number of
men in the valley, and also enable
some of the ranchers who have time
to spare to get work for a good part
of the spring.

ISSUES DIVIDEND
Stockholders Get 8 Per Cent; 12 Per
Cent Goes to improvements
New Lines.

The Farmers Telephone & Tele-
graph company today issued an eight
per cent cash dividend to it's stock
holders. At the present time there
are 1913 stockholders in the company,
representing 447 shares.
According to the annual report of
Secretary Littlefield the company,
which is an entirely local one, shows
profit of 20 per cent, issuing a div
idend of 8 per cent, thus leaving IL
per cent to go into new improve
ments.
Some of the directors decided to
issue bonds to carry the Indebtedness
of the institution. These bonds have
have been taken up by the stockhold-
ers themselves In fact the stock
holders have just begun to recognize
the value of these bonds as an invest
ment.
The company is purely local con-
cern and was organized by the far
mers. At the time of the organiza-
tion of the company, a fight with the
old Pacific States company was pre-
cipitated. The excellent service, to-
gether with the fact that the COM
pany was strictly local, gave the Far
mers company the advantage, and it
was not long till the outside company
was out of the field.
The valley has been strung with
wires from Peshastin to Malaga. At
the present time a branch is being
strung up the Stemilt Creek which
will give service to twenty more SUBJ
scribers. Another line is being put
up Clockum Creek.
Material has been ordered for the
East Wenatchee extension. Badger
Mountain farmers are also desirous
of connecting with the local company.

Atlanta. Ga. Aug. s1.-The end of the special session of the Georgia Legislature called to reform the con. vict lease system of Georgia Is not yet in sight.
 It was reported today that Cover nor Smith IS opposed to the provisions of the Holder bill. which has passed the House and will veto 1t if adopted by the Senate The Holder bill pro- yides that convicts may be leased to private contractors until December 3i, 1911.
 A new bill has been prepared which 1t Is believed meets with the Cover nor's approval. It creates a prison board of which the Governor. the At torney General and the Commissioner of Agriculture shall be members. The present members of the commission are to be added to the membership of the Board until their respective terms expire. after which the prison board will consist of the three State House officers.
 Tn the House today a minority re- port from the General Judiciary Com mittee was submitted. recommending that the members of the Prison Com mission be impeached.
 Tn the Senate the Holder bill was read for the first time and referred to the Peniteutiary Committee.
 The Senate substitute which provides for an income tax as a means of rais- ing revenue to inaugurate a new sys- tenn. met with such vigorous opposi- tion that the twenty-three proposers of that bill agreed to the elimination of this feature.

 CORDING TO ESTIMATE.
Bremen Were on Their Annual Outing at a Suburban Park and
 Officials Are Tn- vestigntfng

New Orleans. La, Aug. 3f.--An esti- mate of the damage done by the fire which destroyed several blocks in the heart of the business section of New Orleans places the damage at S1, 400, 900.
 Altogether sfxty-two different con- cerns had their plant badly damaged or totally destroyed. These covered sew eral lines of manufacturing industries wholesale dry goods. millinery and clothing establishments and smaller stores
 An inventory today of the buildings suspending in the fire swept district shows that many places of business which were reported last night as having been totally destroyed or badly damaged. in reality suffered very lit- tel loss.
 It was reported at one time durins the night that two banking institu- ttons had been totally destroyed. and this rumor created considerable alarm among many depositors in the con fusion attendant upon the fire. Later it was announced through official sources that both the Morgan and Peo- ples' Bank and Trust Company were in great danger of being destroyed Less fear was felt for the Morgan Bank than for the Peoples. The latter institution during the night removed a large portion of it's contents under
  Police patrol wagons were used by the bankers in this task.
 An investigation was made today by the State fire marshal~an an effort to determine what caused the fire. The flames were first seen pouring out of the windows of the Central Glass Com- pany in Bienville Street. but the pro- prietors of this establishment say they were unable to account for the origin of the fire.
 The fire spread with such rapidity that the proper officials are today making an effort to learn why the en- tire strength of the fire &department was not concentrated against the flames earlier than 1t was. Ass
 Complaint was ma&tG.hat the water supply was inadequate and added to this was the fact that the firemen were in the midst of their annual outing at suburban park when the fire was discovered. As a result the fire fight ing apparatus arrived at the fire with half crews.

A CHANGE OF VENUE
JUDGE ADAMS GRANTS APPLICA-
 TI0N OF STATE.
Trial of Beach Hargis Will Net Take Place at JacksOm--A Remarkable
 ConditiOn of Affairs.

Jackson. Ky. Aug. 31.-A change of venue was granted the Commonwealth in the Beach Hargis case by Judge Adams to-day.
 The court delivered carefully prepared opinion amid breathless sl- lence.
 The evidence in this case" said Juge Adams. presents the most un- usual state of affairs I have ever known to exist. The Commonwealth has proven that an overwhelming sentiment exists In the county against the defendant while the defendant, in- troduced number of witnesses to prove the same fact. In the face of these conditions the Commonwealth insists on change of venue. The de- fendant on the other hand is demand ing trial among the people whom the proof shows are clamoring for his conviction.
 Tt is proven by one witness at lea that efforts have been made to infiu- ence men to qualify as jurors and hang the jury. No evidence Is offered by defendant to deny this charge. While there are many just as good men in this county as can be found anywhere, the evidence shows that most, If not practically all of them have expressed an opinion, and hence would not be competent jurors.
 Under these conditions I do not be- lieve the case ought to be tried in this county and therefore the change of venue will be granted"
 The attorneys for the defendant ex- cepted to the ruling of the court.
