What the Wenatchee World Says of NJ. p.
Spencer

Spencer
The World has published cuts OF the
many candidates for Office and what
they had to say for themselves, as news
items. Among those that have not had
a cut made is Martin P. Spencer, re-
publican candidate for county treasurer.
He is entitled, however, to a portion of
our space and our support for the Office
which he seeks.
Martin P. Spencer is an old resident
OF the state of Washington, and is
classed among the early pioneers OF
territorial days, having located in Spo-
kane in the year 1888, when that city
was only half the present size of We
natchee and boosted of but one small
brick building.
His residence in Chelan county ex-
tends over a period of ten years, and
he has been closely identified with her
rapid development during that time.
Mr.. Spencer and the late Major A. S.
Lindsay were for three years the owners
and publishers of the Wenatchee Ad-
vance, which was successfully man
aged by Mr.. Spencer until sold, and is
now a part of and published by the
World-Advance.
The expression, which is considered
by everyone to be the biggest adver-
tisement for the entire community of
any yet put out, was first. thought OF
and put into print by Mr.. Spencer.
The Home of the Big Red Apple"
was first printed as a title to picture
OF Wenatchee and run off on the job
press OF the Advance for the old cham
Der OF commerce.
Mr.. Spencer has thorough business
education. An inspection of the rec
ords of the assessors office will show
beyond doubt that his loose leaf sys-
tenn which he has installed in the
office is second to none in the state.
It not only lessons the chance OF max
ing errors in taking assessments but is
great help to the treasurer and indis-
pensable to the board of equalization in
adjusting values.
Mr.. Spencer's good work as assessor
of Chelan county for the past two years
is recognized by all. In speaking OF
the 1908 assessment, Mr.. A. Pitcher,
chairman of the board of county COM
missioners, said: 1t is the most equita-
Bile assessment Chelan county has
ever had
Mr.. Spencer has always been tax
payer in the county, and is the owner
of considerable real estate in the state.
He is one of our substantial citizens, is
we'll liked by all who know him, and at
the last election he polled more votes
than any other candidate on either
ticket.
The fact that he has made up two
sets of tax rolls for the county, and ex-
tended the tax on same for the auditor,
has essentially fitted him for the office
of treasurer. He has made good in the
assessors office and should he be nom
mated the county would be assured OF
competent and obliging official.

The recent decision of the supreme
court unfolding the Gum exemption
act has brought to its author, former
Tax Commissioner Joseph H. Easter

ton and commentator of the nations
highest authorities upon taxation and

ton and at its expense. He is invited

ject OF THE taxation of money and

would he accept the invitation but that

tunity to invite the next conference to
the state of Washington.

ANTE-PASS LAW
VERY UNPOPULAR
BuT CONGRESS. TT is SAID, WILL
NOT REPEAL THE MEAS
uRE.

Washington. Jan. 22-It is no se,.
ret. of course. that the provision OF
the railroad rate bill passed by the
last congress most unpopular with
the national lawmakers. is the one
forbidding railroads to issue free
transportation except to employees
and certain other favored classes.
ione of those classes being members
Of congress. Congress didn't want
to incorporate that provision in the
bill. but did so in response to public
demand
Now, it develops that the anti-pass
provision was too drastic. Some peo-
pie are denied free transportation
who ought to have it. and whose
having it could work no possible
harm. One class Of such are the
widows of men who have lost their
lives in railway service. Bills have
been introduced to so amend the law
that they may have passes, but they
will not pass It is a pretty safe as
sumption that so long as members
of congress have to pay railroad fare
the antipass bars win be let down
for no one else.
