The Radio Wireless Telephone

c. c. Burt from Portland, Oregon,
representing the Pacific Radio Wire
less Telephone Co., has been here the
past week explaining the merits of
wireless, poleless and noiseless tele-
phone service. The company he
represents is a Pacific states affair, the
purpose of which is to embrace Wash
ington, Idaho, Oregon and California.
Long distance stations are now under
construction in Seattle and Spokane
and will manufacture in Seattle all the
instruments and appliances required
to cover the four states named. A
company organized on the Atlantic
coast embracing the territory from the
great lakes to the Gulf of Mexico is
now in operation and has proved a
commercial success. The Pacific
states company will operate under the
same patents and system, known as
the DeForest system, controlling all
the important patents covering wireless
telephone. A limited amount of stock
is for sale at reasonable price and a
number of Leavenworth people have
indicated their intention of taking
blocks of wireless telephone stock.
When it is remembered what profits
the early investors in Bell telephone
stock reaped from small investments
it is not to be wondered that people
with few hundred dollars to spare
are taking on Wireless telephone stock.
The Scientific American, the most
reputable scientific journal in the
United States, has pronounced wireless
telephone proved success. The
wireless phone people propose to cut
the cost of phone service down from
one half to two-thirds, and are still
make their stock earn a larger profit
than Bell Telephone stock, as they re-
quire no right-of-way, no poles or wire
and very inexpensive instruments.
The ether in the air is the important
part of the system, and thank goodness
the air is still free.

The "NashviIle Students"

Echoes of the Pay Streak reached
Leavenworth Wednesday night when
an aggregation of black artists gave a
performance in the opera house. These
people are now travelling under the
name of Nashville Students They
were in the Dixie Land show on the
Pay Streak at the exposition. The
company does not need the bolster
implied in its present name. 1t should
travel on its own merits.
The show is a good one, barring a
few vulgar horse plays which seem a
necessary part in performances Of this
nature. All the specially acts were
away above the ordinary, and really
merited the enthusiastic applause ac-
corded. The singing was fair, the or
chestra good, and as whole the com
pany was excellent.
In spite of the threatening weather
the house was crowded. After the show
a dance was given, led by the com
pany's orchestra. Many remained to
enjoy the festivities.
Manager Nye is to be commended
for his enterprise in bringing so good a
show here. Also, by the attendance,
he should be encouraged to engage as
good or better in the future.

The state of Oregon, which pio-
neered in the matter OF statewide pri-
maries, now has petitions in circulation
for two new changes in its constitution
which will make politicians sit up and
take notice, and which will give the
progressives some new worlds to con-
quer. Oregon proposes to submit all
taxation for vote of approval of the
people, and to elect a governor and
give him authority to appoint other
state officers as members OF his cabinet.

we would be glad to have a local cor
respondent at Chiwaukum, Merritt,
Wenatchee Lake, Mason Creek and
Peshastin, who would send US every
week such news pertaining to the
locality as would be Of general interest,
and to any one who would undertake
the task, which might not only be-
come interesting but beneficial, we
have a liberal offer to make. To Sc
cure the publication of a news letter
during the current week it must reach
this office not later than 3:15 p. m.
Wednesday and must be signed by the

used it this week. We want the name
as an evidence Of good faith, not
necessarily for publication. Bear this
in mind when writing to this paper for
any purpose. All communications
minus the writer's name go to the

the Panama Canal and the extension of
trade on the Pacific had been so great
for SO many years that he readily gave
his promise to attend.
