ReatRn Now.

Senator Ankeny is beaten for re-
election now. Nothing can be mode
certain than that 1t is inconceivable
that the people of the state will give
a popular majority to Mr.. Ankeny at
the primaries. If the bosses try to
job the direct primary law, and the
people stand for their work, they
may beat Jones, but they will never
land the Walla Walla man again.
The Jones fight, therefore, becomes
a fight not against Ankeny, but
against the bosses. This Is a good
year to put them down ami out. We
have little doubt that it will be done.

To Assess 1000. 600, 900 Feet of

Timber.
Bellingham, May 30.-Within a
month the cruise of the standing
timber, under the direction Of Coun-
ty Assessor L. D. Brown will be COM
pleted, and the four billion feet OF
timber will be placed on the assess
ment rolls. Owing to the fact that
much of this is located in almost in
accessible places and that some of 1t
Is of small value, it is figured that
the average value will not exceed 81
a thousand feet when put on the
rolls. In fact, Assessor Brown
thinks it will be less than that.
