ter, and Nordyke knowing that he
was coming over here stated that the
Vancouver baseball team would re-
port here in the spring for the early
practice is too cold to do early
work on the Sound and as it is pos
sible to START baseball practice here
in April it is Mr.. Nordyke's idea to
put in a couple of months work here
in the spring before going to Vancou-
yer.
The coming here of the Vancou-
yer team means that some sort of
grounds must be fixed up here, and
it is also likely that the early work
of this league. team here will give
baseball an impetus in the city so
that it will be possible to have fine
team here next season.

Seattle from a trip through the

Aege. With him were Prof Melan-

OF whom addressed the farmers on
different phases of the agricultural,
and dairying business.

thusiasts about growing fruit, and
they can hardly be blamed when one
considers the large returns some of
them have got from their orchards.
The Methow valley is coming to the
front as fruit growing section.

the various judgments. After this
is done then the court will appoint
a commission to fix the benefits to
the abutting property by reason of
the regrade This should amount to
several thousands of dollars. Then
besides the damages against the city
by the regrade on this avenue the

the QUESTION OF
SALOON LICENSES
LIQUOR OR NO LIQUOR IS PROV
ING ONE OF THE MAIN ISSUES
OF THE MUNICIPAL CAMPAJGN.
CANDIDATES EXPRESS OPIN-
IONS.

The question of the granting of
more saloon licenses is going to be
an issue at the coming municipal
election in December. This same
question is proving the main issue
all over the state. Yakima, Ellens-
burg, Snohomish, Puyallup and in
fact all of the smaller cities are up
against this question. In all of these
places there are adherents of the be-
lief that municipalities can get along
just as we'll without the thousands
of dollars that come in every year
as saloon licenses to run saloons
During the past week this matter
has been freely discussed on the
streets It has been current gossip
that the four candidates on the Peo-
pies party ticket were committed to
the no-license propaganda. The
question of licensing the saloons is
up to the city council proper. The
mayor has no vote except in the case
of a tie vote. The supreme court
has held that the entire matter rests
with the council and cannot be re-
viewed by the courts.
The candidates for councilmanic
honors are Ed S. Russell and Terry
Ross, republicans, and P. P. Holcomb,
Joe Albin, Howard Thomas and ]. H.
McGohan, Peoples party. P. P. Hol-
comb was nominated for councilman
at-large and has no opposition On the
republican ticket; Messrs. Ross and
Russell having been nominated for
the two-year terms. The three two
year terms are therefore to be filled
from the five candidates, Ross and
Russell, republicans, and Thomas,
Mcclellan and Albin, Peoples party
Inasmueh as the report had be-
come current that the candidates on
the Peoples party ticket had pledged
themselves to work in unison and
against the issuing of any more
saloon licenses, a World man inter-
