way commissioner and the chair OF
good roads in the University OF
Washington.
President Hill, in his opening
speech stated that the efforts of the
executive committee were devoted to
the establishment of rock-crushing
plants at Wenatchee, Spokane and
Yakima.
The following resolutions were also
adopted:
I'VE favor bonding the state of
Washington for sum sufficient to
extend and construct state road No
Z, known as the Snoqualmie Pass
road, from Seattle to Spokane; to ex-
tend and construct state road No 5,
known as the Cowlitz road, from
South Bend and Aberdeen to a point
of junction with state road No. s, at
a convenient point in Benton county:
to extend and construct state road
No. s, known as the Columbia River
road from Vancouver to Walla Walla
and the eastern boundary of the
state; to locate and construct an i'm
proved highway from Blaine. on the
northern boundary of the state, via
the principal cities of the Sound, to
Vancouver. on the southern boundary
of the state, and to construct an i'm
proved highway in Eastern Washing
ton from the northern boundary of
the state to a point on its eastern
boundary in Whitman county, such
roads to be built only after careful
investigation as to the best lines to
be followed, and to be built and main
tanned entirely by the state.
I'VE favor law providing for the
in each county of COM
pentent engineer to the board of
county commissioners of each county.
who, after January II, 1911, shall
be the holder of a certificate of COM
potency from the state highway COM
mission, or of a diploma with the

institution of recognized
standing and efficiency, having de-
partment of civil engineering in
which road building is taught.

ATKINSON UNDER
$1,000 BOND
MAN UNDER RAPE CHARGE
PLEAD NOT GUILTY AND WAS
RIOR COURr.

Prince Atkinson, arrested in Seat
tie last week, on an old charge OF as
sault with the intent to commit rape
was arraigned Saturday evening be-
fore Judge Palmer. He plead not
guilty to the charge and waived a
preliminary hearing. Judge Palmer
held him to the Superior Court in
the sum of $1,000, but he was
brought before Judge Palmer this
morning and his bond was raised to
$4,000. He was not represented by
an attorney. Atkinson's father lives
at Seattle, and Prince thinks he can
get his father to go his bond. He
was in communication with his father
today, and it is understood that his
father signified his intention of put
ting up the money for his sons re-
lease, pending his appearance in the
superior court

LOSE LAND BY DAM BREAK.

The damage case of Alfred John
son VS.. the Lamb-Davis Lumber COM
pany of Leavenworth will probably
come to trial at the next term of
superior court, says the Cashmere
Record. In November, 1906, Mr..
Johnson lost a portion of his fine
orchard as result of the careless
ness of the Lamb-Davis company
Their dam at Leavenworth broke and
caused much damage all along the
Wenatchee river. Mr. Johnson was
probably the heaviest loser, a chan
mel being made across one corner of
his place, and since that time the
river has gradually washed his place
away until he has only very small
part left.
E. F. Stowell, whose land adjoins
Mr.. Johnson's, also had property de-
stroyed. His case is on file in the
superior court, and if Mr.. johnson is
successful in his suit Mr.. Stowell will
no doubt be awarded damages with

STEAMER ENTERPRISE HAS 4
GOOD SEASON.

Miles, Wash, Nov. 23.-The sea-
sons run of the steamboat Enter
prise to Miles Landing on the upper
Columbia has been pleasing to the
owners and Captain McDermott. The
steamers have taken more freight
and passengers from this point than
expected. By invitation of Captain
McDermott and the Kettle Falls Com
mercial club, the newly elected mem
bers of the legislature from Lincoln
county made a trip of inspection on
the boat from Miles Landing to Ket-
tie Falls, where they will meet the
newly elected legislators of Stevens
and Ferry counties, with a view of
securing state aid in removing OBJ
struction from the upper Columbia
and rendering navigation less dan
gerous. The plans and recommended
lions will be submitted to the next
state legislature.

enough foresight, at the present

need not be a prophet to pick up
opportunities now that will make
you independent for life within a

that mining has made more mil
ionaires than any other industry
on the face Of the Globe. Today
we are importing thousands Of
tons of coal annually to this coun-
try from foreign countries, and
the only reason for this is, that we
have not sufficiently developed our
own resources. The coal mined at
the King Coal Mine at Issaquah is

capital to develop her capacity.

Tired Eyes

People speak about their eyes being
tired, meaning that the retina or seeing
portion Of the eye is fahgued, but such
is not the case, a. the retina hardly
ever gets tired. The fatigue is In the
inner and outer muscles attached to
the eyeball and the muscle Of accom-
mediation which surrounds the lens Of
the eye. When a near object is to be
looked at this muscle relsxes and al
lows the lens to thicksn, increasing
it's refrsCtivs power. The inner and
outer muscles are used in covering the
eye on the object TO be looked at. 1t
is in the three muscles mentioned that
the fatigue is felt, and rsliefis secured
temporarily by closing the eyes or gsz'
ing at far distant objects. The usual
indication Of strain is q rednsss Of the
rim OF the eyelid, betOkening a con-
gssted state Of the inner surface.
accompanied by some pain. Some.
times this wesriness indicates the need
of glasses rightly adapted to the per-
son, and in othss cases the true rem
edy is to massage the eye aud its sur
roundings as far as may be with the
hand wet in cold water.

The Cheerful Man.

What a boon he iG in everYbodys
life ? Like q bright sunrise and a
gentle south wind, coming togsther on
a winter morning, he is to all who
cross hi. path. He brushes chesrily
along, knocking grief and disappoint-
ment out of his path, and leaving it
fringed with flowers. Such a man is
worth q great deal to the world D.;
more than all his money, his wisdom
or his ambitious schemes. People feel
sort Of pleasure just seeing him com-
ing down the street, and when they
meet him there is not 4 cloud In
sight. Such men are blessing to q
town. They make one feel that the
town is growing. is getting more beau
tiful, more than place just to eat
and sleep and make a living in.
Sometimes one doesn't meet such men,
and then he feels that the town is de-
generating, that things are going
wrong, and that the evil spirit is try.
ing to put little malice in, his heart,
and he goes home and meets his wife's
smile with feeling of suspicion.
A cheerful man doesn't realize the
amount Of good be is doing in the
world but it is his nature and be
cannot help it. Heaven has picked
him out as one Of its angels, and he ls
faithful to his mission. Every day
some fellow has been made happy by
his pleasant smile and his genial
"good morning" To be cheerful
may not be 80 great duty as to be
honest or unsslfsh, but it certainly
widsns the radiance Of these virtues.
