ANTIQUITY OF CONCRETE.

"until the novelty wore Nff, and

any longer Then your line was hit

TIE cement man : sarcasm will be
better appreciated when he fact is
taken into consideration that con-
crete dncS back more than = th,u-

zine. The Romans employed con-
crete in road building and founda-
ton work. Throughout Italy will be
fonnd structures. cmbodying the use
OF concrete, whose age will easily
reach thousand years. Of course,
the Pantheon at Rome is, perhaps,
the most noted.
Coming down from the time of the
Romans. the ancient city Of Ciudad
Rodrigo, in Spain, has walls existing
at the present day in which are buri-
cd large bouldcrs Of stone. These
walls are in Il good state of prcser-

RANCHERS Of
SECOND DISTRICT
OPPOSE OTIS
STATEMENT OF FACTS BY SEC
OND DISTRICT SQUARE DEAL
CLUB.
Contributed.)

The Second District Square Deal
Club, a non-partisan Trganization of
voters and taxpayers of the Second
Commissioners district of Chelan
county, which was organized for the
purpose of defeating II. w. Otis for
reelection to the Office of commits
sio1er from the Second district, desire
to place before the voters of Chelan
county, especially those of the First
and Third districts, plain statement
of facts, as to why they are opposed
to the reelection of Mr.. Otis to the
Office which he now holds. The men,
bership of this organization is COM
posed almost entirely or ranchers and
laboring men of the Second district
who are entirely dissatisfied with Mr..
Otis administration of county affairs
during his present term of Office and
particularly as regards the disburse-
ments of the road and bridge funds of
the district.
Mr.. Otis has expended large sums
of county funds in an extarvagant
and lavish manner upon roads and
bridges on and near his own prop
erty at Peshastin and Merritt, while
at the same time he has absolutely
neglected and refused to make even
the most Insignificant repairs upon
some of the most important roads
and bridges in his district. To give
the taxpayers of the county an idea
of what Mr.. Otis has. done for him.
self while in Office we submit the fol-
lowing:
He has been in Office less than two
years and in that time he has built
and completed steel bridge across
Peshastin creek at the northwest cor
ner of his ranch, at cost to the coun-
ty of $2566.25 and an additional sum
of about $3.50 for grading of APP
proaches, etc., making a total OF
more than $1,000. At the meeting OF
the county commissioners at which
the construction Of this bridge was
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1908-10-29

Red Mountain, there has not been a
| days work done in way of repair this
year. There are fifteen bridges and
culverts on this road, and to use the
words of County Engineer 1. A. Ma
varre, who has just made an official
! inspection of them, they are all rot
ten and are liable to turn turtle every
/ time a team crosses over them" Mr..
| Otis has known the condition of
these bridges, and last spring when
| had tilted and sagged he sent the road
supervisor up to investigate il conii-
ton, and all that was done to it was
to post a sign reading, Condemned,
by order of County Commissioners; ;
you cross at your peril, and this
bridge to this day has never been re-
paired, although Mr. Otis has been re-
peatedly reminded of its condition, as
, well as the condition of the other
bridges on this road.
Not only have the bridges on this
road been neglected, but the roads
themselves have had no attention
this year from Mr.. Otis. n the Leav-
enworth precinct and that portion of
Peshastin precinct lying on the north
side of Wenatchee river there are
more than fifty miles of county roads,
and upon this portion of the
county road system there has been
only about 5000 expended this year.
The roads in this territory are in
such deplorable condition that many
fruit and vegetable raisers in hauling
their produce to Leavenworth dur
ing the past summer and fall have
had it so badly bruised and injured
as to make it unstable.
While it is quite true that there
are various other duties to be per-
formed by a county commissioner be-
sides building roads and bridges. it is
also true, nevertheless, that this is
one of the most important duties
connected with the Office, and if he
has not the qualifications to discharge
these duties in a fair and impartial
manner. 1t Is only reasonable 10 pre-
sumo that he is deficient in all other
qualifications required of county
commissioner Mr.. Otis has proven
by his~present term of office to the
ranchers of his own district at least
that he is not possessed of the proper
qualifications required of a county
commissioner and therefore they de-
sire his retirement.

ordered, a petition in remonstrance
signed by twenty-seven resident
ranchers of Peshastin fiat was pre-.
sented to the commissioners court
protesting against the location of this
bridge on Mr.. Otis ranch, and re-
questing that the bridge be built on
the old bridge site, but Mr.. Otis and
the other two commissioners totally
ignored these twenty-seven petition
ing ranchers, and with arbitrary ar
rogance refused to receive their petit
tion
Mr.. Otis was also very successful in
having the county commissioners Or
der the construction of another steel
bridge near the southeast corner of
the above mentioned ranch. Mr.. Otis
worked very strenuously to have this
bridge located at point on the We
natchee river where the west end of
it would strike about the center Of
his ranch, but as it would cost the
county between $4,000 and $4,000
more to place the bridge on Mr.. Otis
ranch where he wanted it than to To-
cate it short distance below.
Messrs. Darnell and Sanders, the
other two commissioners sat down on
Mr.. Otis ana ordered the bridge built
at its present location.
The contract price of this bridge is
$7343, and with extras and building
approaches, etc, the total cost will
reach $4,000 or $4,000 Besides
these two steel bridges that Mr.. Otis
has had constructed at this ranch of
his at Peshastin at a total cost of
about $4,000, he also had another
steel bridge built across Mason Creek
at his ranch near Merritt at a cost
to the county of S3,OS715 for con-
struction of bridge and about $500
for building approaches thereto.
Now, here we have a grand total Of
about $4,000 of county funds that
have been spent for the edification of
Mr.. Otis, while he has neglected near
ly all the roads and bridges of the
balance of his district. Particularly
is this true in regard TO the western
portion of his district.
During his present term of Office
he has never spent a single dollar
on either of the two roads leading
from Peshastin to Leavenworth, not
withstanding the fact that both of
these roads are in a deplorable and
dangerous condition and several
ranchers have asked him to do some
thing with them in the way of re-
pairs. In the Cascade Orchards,
where there are about fifteen miles of
county roads, there has never been a
cent of road funds spent by Mr.. Otis
since he took charge of the Office,
and the same is true of the Eagle
creek road. On the Chumstick road,
which is about twelve miles long, and
is the main artery of travel between
Leavenworth. Lake Wenatchee and
