symptoms of kidney trouble, and you

Mrs. Ed Batterman, living at II
South D street, Wenatchee, Wash,
says: II deem it pleasure to recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills for the
benefits 1 have derived from their
use. Sometime ago I noticed that
my kidneys were in disordered
condition, and I suffered severely
from a dull aching across my back,
which chung to me almost constantly

WENATCHEE APPLE
Compliments of Wenatchee
Commercial Club

BY R. F. Holm
Representative Chelan Co.
Mr.. Holm was "afoot" this morn
ing while members and even pages
and employees were enjoying their
morning nap, and when the legisla-
ture assembled the compliment" of
the Wenatchee Commercial Club
were very much in evidence. The
samples SION disappeared and it is
safe to say if Holm had followed up
his advantage by bill to make the
Wenatchee apple the state flower, the
rhododendron would have had to
hustle to hold its job.
The state road law came near
getting into trouble at the county
commissioners convention, but High
way Commissioner Snow came to the
rescue and when the representatives
of the county board had heard his
exclamation they concluded it was all
right
According to the local option law
of the anti-saloon league no part of
county can vote in a saloon If the
county goes dry, but if the irrigation
forces capture the county the "dries"
have come back by precincts. This
does not look good to Metcalf, who
will amend to give each side show.
Here is a straight tip on the local
option bill. 1t will be a precinct
measure with cities of the first, sec
ond and third class excepted from
it's provisions. If the legislature
passes some other kind of bill you
needn't mention the fact that l made
any prophecy.

to the conclusion that our almond

C. o. Barnes, of Klickitat, was
elected president; Burch, of Kitsap,
vice president, and LeMay, of North
Yakima, secretary-treasurer of the
state association of county commits
sioners, which finished its convention
in this city at noon today.
The slide in this city which wreck
ed the westbound passenger Tuesday
night was followed by one of still
larger proportions this morning. No
trains were caught in the wreck, but
the road is blocked ana passenger
traffic carried on by stubs, de

railroading.
Fifteen county treasurers were In
attendance at the state convention
today. Among the recommendations
already put forth is an approval OF
the uniform accountancy law, spe-
cific time for the delinquency of per-
sonal property taxes and a recon-
mendation that the chief deputy
treasurer's salary be fixed by state
law at no less than 60 per cent. OF
the treasurer's salary, the county
commissioners, who now fix all depu-
ties salaries, not always being suf-
ficiently liberal to suit the treas
urers.

Whereas, the nation is united, for
which reason questions concerning the
