The New Jail.

The new Jail is completed, and
the commissioners have accepted
the same. 1t cost $16,S19. 1t is a
fine building and the citizens of
Stevens county have reason to be
proud of the jail. 1t is two-story.
The cells are on the upper floor,
having room to accommodate 20
prisoners. The first floor will be
used by the sheriff for Offices. 1t
is up to date in every particular.

necessary for an officer to 60 inside

Run Rallinser for Governor

Olympia, Wash, Jan. 1S.-K.
A. Ballinger, of Seattle, has re-
signed as commissioner OF the
general land Office at Washington,
D. c., and will return to this state
so that he may make the race tor
the republican nomination for
governor. That is the choice bit
of gossip that has reached here
and it comes pretty well substan-
tiated. While it was generally
understood, when Judge Ballinger
went east to accept the position
rendered him by President Roose-
Welt, that he would remain there
but a short time, his interests be-
ing all in this state, it was some
what of a surprise that Balllnger
should quit the federal position as
soon as he will-quit it in fact
when he is just beginning to carry
out the policies he had proposed.
Of course, when it is understood
he is coming back to enter the
gubernatorial race, the explanation
of the sudden return westward is
apparent.
