this city:
1t is understood that Mayor Jno
A. Gellatly of Wenatchee is promi-

Chelan county. The Leader has no
hesitation in saying that here's the
chance the people of the county have
long been looking and hoping for
the opportunity to elect repreSe1-

were too firm to feel the effects of
a temporary shortage of money are
priding themselves on thir acumen.
Reports received today from Chi
cago merchants and other cities were
all characterized by the same hope

all danger of period of hard times
has disappeared.

say that the Second senatorial

for the Senatorship, Mccall and
