FOR COUNTY ENGINEER
{. c. Ward, Civil Engineer of Wenatchee
Announces Candidacy

c. c. Ward, candidate for the Office
of county engineer, wishes to state to
the voters of Chelan county that he is
asking for their votes at the coming
primary and general elections because
he believes that his experience Of over
twenty years peculiarly fits him to full
fl the duties of the Office he is seeking.
He has been a U. S. deputy survey
or and besides original surveys has
made many resurveys Of old govern
ment lines and is therefore competent
to make authoritative surveys Of disputed
lines and corners.
He has had experience in methods
of cost keeping which should be part
of the records with reference to all
roads, bridges, and all other matters
pertaining to the Office Of county
engineer.
The necessity for correct and com
plete records Of all county road surveys,
as well as Of all other matters coming
under the direction OF the county
engineer, is well established.
He has had several years experience
with the U. S. Geological Survey which
would fit him for the work Of the com
pilation Of any maps necessary.

SMITHSON FOR STATE SENATOR
The ElIenSburg Banker-Merchant
er and Stock Raiser Wants to Repre-
sent Chelan and kittitas
Counties

John H. Smithson announced his
desire to represent this district in the
legislature in his home county some
time ago but not until last Friday did
the people Of Leavenworth learn OF
Mr.. Smithson's ambition to represent
Chelan and Kittitas counties in the
upper branch OF the state law-making
body. Mr.. Smithson is very pleas
ant body to meet. He has behind
him a record for doing things such as
few men can boast Of. Coming TO
Kittitas county from New London,
Ontario, Canada in 1878, he went to
work on a ranch first and later on
turned his hand to anything that came
his way and promised reward for
labor. At present he is, if not the
largest among the heaviest tax payers
in the county. President Of the First
National Bank, principal stockholder
Of the oldest hardware company in
Ellensburg, one Of the largest ranchers
in the county, being extensively en-
gagged in stock farming. For the past
twelve years he has been connected
with the city government Of Ellens-
burg either as mayor or councilman.
In 1892 he was elected a member OF
the lower house of the state legislature,
a position which he filed with honor
to his county and credit to himself.
At home he has always been called
the friend of the laboring men. Hav-
ing been a working man himself he is in
sympathy with the aims and hopes of
those who toll for a living. He is
large employer Of labor but it is said
to his credit that he never has had
trouble with his employees over hours
of labor or wages. He has given up
active business life and devotes his
whole time TO overseeing his hay
ranches and live stock.
He is a thorough American in senti-
ment. Some years ago he made an
excursion into Mexico and said he
never felt so good as when he got
back on American soil.

am impelled to do so by friendly assur-
ance Of support from many sources. If

3. Across the Wenatchee river
have been built recently four steel
bridges, across Peshastin creek and
Mason creek two permanent spans have
been erected, and Dry creek below
Wenatchee has been bridged. All these
bridges are a credit to the county, TO
the contractor and to the engineer. and
in having a small share in completing
these bridges claim small share Of
the credit.
4. In the past few years the Road
Records have been overhauled and in
cases where either no survey is on
record OF where old surveys have not
tied to government corners, re-survevs
have been ordered and made, or have
been recommended. This is to pro-
tect the interests Of the public in gen
eral, to prevent any encroachments or
fencing of an established road.
There is yet much word to be done:
5. A record Of franchises (tele-
phone, fume, water pipe, etc., } let to
private parties on the different county
roads should be classified and kept for
ready reference.
6. Bridges should be classified,
their condition each year noted, lack
Of paint, need Of flooring and a whole
history Of each bridge should be made,
so that any private party desiring in
formation could understand at a glance
what condition each was in.
7. Road work will become espec-
tally important in the next few years.
The state is creating new easy grade
highways, one of which will undoubt-
edly pass down the Wenatchee valley,
beneftting the whole county. One
acquainted with roadways OF the county
should be in the engineers Office.
8. If you know me and think me
capable-vote for me.
g. If elected I will devote my time
entirely to the interests of the county.

and rock excavation, tunneling, bridges
and trestles, and concrete construction,
both massive and reinforced.
The matter OF county roads is one
in which the people Of the county are
vitality interested, and their location
and construction should, in conjunction
with the county commissioners, receive
the most careful personal attention Of
the county engineer. Mr.. Ward feels
that he can merit the confidence Of the
commissioners and Of the voters in
these very important matters.
