grade entertainment that is making
Wenatchee city of culture, and is
developing the right kind of spirit in
our high school. / wish we could
have more of this type of entertain
ment for our citizens.
Everything is going we'll with the
Wenatchee students at the .Univer-
slty Our Chelan County Club meets
tonight, and | understand some def
mite plans for getting in closer
touch with the high school students
or Chelan country are contemplated.
AS soon as things are in good shane
and running smoothly we shall let
you know what We are doing. If you
have not received a list of the Off
GERS OF our club l shall be glad to
forward the same with a little write
up as to how we are getting along.
l should like to mention incidental
ly that Wenatchee, as an educational
center, is far ahead of many of the
larger cities in the state. From
90 per cent are attending the uni
versity. To think that SO per cent
OF the graduates of a given class are
attending a higher institution Of
learning is indeed very gratifying to
us as citizens of Wenatchee. And
the best part of it is that they are
all the more loyal to their state in
aking advantage of what he state
is Offering in preference to going to
some eastern university, whose repu-
tation was made many years ago.
This kind of loyalty is the stuff our
citizens are made of.
With the best wishes of all the
Wenatchee students, | am, very truly
yours,

SPOONS BRING
GRIEF TO TWO
CHORUS GIRLS
Arrested for Theft, One Cries and
Cafe Proprietor Forgot About
Collecting His Dues.

Ellensburg, Jan. 16.-Two chorus
girls of the gingerbread Man"
company, were routed out of their
berths in their sleeping car early
yesterday morning and brought be-
fore Justice Purdin on charge of
having stolen two spoons from the
Bank Cafe. After the performance
the previous evening the girls went
to the cafe for a little supper. They
took the spoons as souvenirs. Har-
ry Danver, the proprietor, missed
the spoons several hours later. He
called on Marshal Shull to arrest
the suspected culprits. The girls re-
fused to submit to arrest upon the
officers first call at the car. So the
Justice was aroused. He issued the
warrant. When Shull arrived again
at the car door he found it locked
and a burly negro porter on guard.
Shull broke down the door. The

Is WENATCHEE BECOMING
A CITY OF CULTURE?
Letter From Fred CrOllard STATES
That Reputation Being Made i'm
Something Else Besides Big Red
Apples.

Is Wenatchee to become city of
culture and is Chelan county to be-
come a district known throughout
the state for the intellectual attain
ments of her citizens? The idea is
advanced in a letter received this
week by the editor of The World
from Fred M. Crollard of the Uni
versity of Washington and private
secretary to Thimas F. Kane, presi-
dent of the institution.
The letter received is a personal
one, but on account of the fact that
it contains matter of interest to the
public, much of it is published. 1t
calls attention to some of the things
that are making for Wenatchee a
name in some other things beside
Big Red Apples. The letter says:
My Dear Woods-It may, perhaps,
be of some slight interest to you, as
member of the Lecture Course Com
mittee that so wisely arranged a date
last year for Professor Maynard Lee
Daggy in Wenatchee, to know that
Professor Daggy leaves Seattle this
week for an extended tour through
Idaho, Utah, Colorado and Washing
ton, and will lecture in some of the
big cities of these states. Profess
sor Daggy's reputation as a lecturer
and orator of the first rank is recog-
nized in this respect by the fact that
he is on the largest and most expen-
sive lecture course west of the Mis-
sissippi. Wenatchee is indeed to
be congratulated on having had al
opportunity to hear him, and my on
ly regret is that every man, woman
and child in our city did not get out
to hear him. You, know, Woods,
that it is this sort of clean-cut, high

0PIE READ
IS COMING
Will Be In Wenatchee Tomorrow
Night-Third Number of Lee
( ture Course.

Opie Read will be in Wenatchee to-
morrow night. The Daily World
was in communication by phone to-
day with the noted humorist, and he
states that he will arrive here at
noon, and in the evening will give
his latest lecture: First One Thing
and Then Another"
One who has heard Opie Read says
of him:
IF the man who can make other
people laugh is alb lessing to human
ity, there ought to be a statue erect
ed to Opie Read. There are few liv-
ing American storytellers who can
reproduce for us more perfectly than
Mr.. Read does, the speech, the man
ners, the whole social atmosphere of
the rural south and the rural west.
His latest lecture, First One Thing
and Then Another" is a sparkling
gem of humor and wit, not unmixed
with pathos. Strictly speaking it is
not lecture at all, but an informal
heart-to-heart talk that brings the
speaker into close intimacy with his
hearers, and keeps them roaring with
.
throughout the. evening. On the
platform, as in his written works, Mr..
Read shines with a brilliance all his
own. Everywhere he is received with
enthusiasm. The indescribable
witchery of his words, the charm Of
his voice and manner, the influence
of his personality, combine to weave
the magic spell that holds his audi
ences enthralled. He puts into gra-
phic and picturesque language much
that We, as Americans, have felt, but
only dimly comprehended. Reminds
cense, criticism, anecdote, historic
fact, and literary estimate are blend
ed so delightfully."- that it is difficult
to tell which presents the greatest at
fractions for those who hear him.
The splendid genius of the man
shines forth in everything he says.
The humor is all pervasive. yet one
sees that the lecturers purpose is
serious. He shows himself to be
wonderful delineator of character,
and an artist in the Interpretation of
his own work

CASHMERE new
SCHOOL BUILDING
District Gathers Up School Children
i'm Covered Sleighs.

One Of the finest schools in the
state, the Cashmere school building,
Is rapidly nearing completion, j. |.
Bailey & Co., contractors, are rush.
ing the work under the personal SUI
pervision of J. E. Miller, a member
of the firm. A large gang of men
are at work, and the plasterers will
begin operations the first of next
week. The building will be finished
by February Is, 1908.
/. ]. Bailey & Co. have had the
entire contract, having broken the
ground, started brickyard and
made their own brick and cement
work, besides the entire inside fin
ishing and heating plant.
The school building is large
structure of brick. 1t will cost $780,
900, and it will have eight rooms
besides basement. The dimensions
are 80 101 it., story.
One of the best features is the fine
heating plant, which will heat by
steam, not only the new building,
but the former high school which
is only short distance away. The
present means of getting the pupils
to school is certainly one of the
most creditable systems in the state.
Three closed sleighs make trips in
different directions and gather up
all school children for miles around,
bring them to school and take them
home at an expense to the school dis
trict of about $4,000 a year.
Cashmere certainly has a right to
be proud of her new central school.

"Thc presidency IL the highest

no one occupying 1t can afford to
have his views upon public ques-
tions biased by personal ambi-
zion. Recognizing his RESPONSE
biIity to God and his obligation
to his countrymen, he should en-
ter upon the discharge of his
duties with sineieness Of pur
pose. Believing that one can
best do this when he Is not plan

nounce now, as have on for
mer occasions, that if elected
shall not be candidate for re-

This is nomination as pure
~ from the people as can be, and
if elected my obligation will be
as purely to the people. appre-

1t came not from one person or

We did not add single line to the in

On the subject of corporations Mr.

among the great evils that affiici
the country at the present time Il
the abuse CT corporate power AT
first the advancing aggressions Of
the corporations are not discernible te
tile common eye, for every move Is
carefully covered up until sufficient pc
1itical strength is attained to defy the
protests of the people.
whenever the mutterings of the
people become too threatening the cry
of confiscation goes up, and appeals
are frantically made to the sacrec
rights of property. The cry Of con
fiscation is the historic defense OF
usurpation. Let the people take warn
ing Whenever the wrongs Of today
become the vested rights Of tomorrow
the nation Is In deadly peril.
"The Democratic party is not the
enemy OF property, but. to the con
trary, 1t has always stood and viii
continue to stand firmly against every
species of aggression that would de
stroy or weaken the right of any man
to enjoy the rewards to which his pa
thence, his skill, his industry and his
economic station entitle him. Against
the evils OF special privilege we urgt
the benefits OF equal opportunity, iE
order that there may be more land
owners, more homes and more happi
ness among the masses.
Prison For Directors.
.'Our party is not opposed to produc
ton on large scale, but 1t Is unat
terably opposed to monopoly in pro
duction. 1t is easier to prevent mo.
