FIXED DATE Of
CITY BOND
ELECTION
MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
GRANTED EXTENSION OF TIME
FOR COMPLETION OF WENAT-
CHEZ AVENUE.

The bond ordinance was given its
third reading last night and put on
it's final passage This ordinance
provides for an election on January
Is. 1910, for the purpose of author
izing the city council to bond the
city for the sum of $4,000. This
proposed ordinance has been dis
cussed for the past three meetings
of the city council and is pretty gen.
orally understood by the citizens of
Wenatchee 1t is proposed to allow
these bonds of this issue to run for
a term of twenty years. There are
already two other bond issues out
standing and the redemption of the
present issue was set for a time
when it was found it would not con-
flict with the maturing of the other
two. The ordinance has been so
drawn that it is definitely worded
as to he uses to which the money
might be put. Prior to the election
on January IS it is expected that
the question will be put before the
public in all lights Sc that there may
be no misunderstanding as to the
purpose of the issue.
The city printing was awarded to
the Republic on a bid of 121a cents
per inch for first insertion and 10
cents per inch for each subsequent
insertion.
The contractors who have had the
work of grading Wenatchee avenue
On hand, prayed for an extension OF
time to April /, on the claim that
weather conditions had been so ur
favorable that they could not finish
within the original time specified.
The petition was granted.
The matter of extending the wa
ter mains to the south end Of the
city was postponed until spring, for
street grazing reasons. IN the mean
time the service from the one hy-
drant that is fed by the ga inch
pipe there will be free.
The plumbing contract for the
comfort station was ratified, some
slight amendments being made.
The ordinance for raising the rate
of interest on city warrants was
brought up and passed to the third
reading.
1t is understood that the usual
ordinance will be passed on the first
meeting of the new year for clean
ing out and disinfecting the munich
pal cuspidor

The Reading Room, under the di-
rection of the w. c. T. u, is the
scene of much activity this winter

man, president of the w. c. T. u,
when seen this morning, stated that
about $40 was needed to supply mag
azines during the coming year. Mrs.

the work, and is giving much of her
time to the cause of securing a $10,-
900 building. There has been Sc
cured $4,000 already, anj the mem
bers are sanguine about getting
enough more during the coming year
to get things under way with.

LITTLE USED.

In the plainly furnished Offices oc-
cupied by the Great Northern Rail-
way company at 80 Nassau street, in
this city, there is a large room at
one end with ground glass door
labeled president, says a New York
report Like the other rooms rent

is almost lacking in the furniture
considered necessary in the ordinary
downtown Office, while of the COM

entire absence.
Two inexpensive roll top desks and
large, plain table, which look as
though they might have been left as
the movers dropped them, take up
but small part of the large room;
and visitor is likely to decide that

satisfactory profit begins at the top.

little used. Louis w. Hill, who Occu-
pies that position, directs the road S
affairs from st. Paul, and is seldom

signed the presidency two years ago
to become chairman of the board,
uses one of the desks on an average

about all the time that he spends at

FORM TWO NEW
STATES
OREGON MEN WANT AID OF WE
NATCHEE AND INLAND EMPIRE
IN ADDING NEW STARS TO
THE FLAG

Form two new states on the Pa
cific coast-Lincoln and Siskiyou.
This is the lively program an
nounced by Oregon boosters; and in
which they want the aid of the peo-
pie of Wenatchee and all the Inland
Empire.
The Jackson County Press associa-
ton in Oregon, at a meeting a few
nights ago at Medford unanimously
indorsed the movement to create the
new state of Siskiyou, composed of
northern California and southern Ore
gon, and appointed committees to CO.
operate with the press and people of
the section involved and call con-
vention of representative citizens at
Shasta Springs. Yreka or some other
California point, in the near future
and formulate plans to outline a
course of action to bring the move
ment to successful elimination.
Common cause, it is asserted will be
made with the promoters of the new
states of Lincoln, in eastern Washing
ton and south California, and an Of
fensive and defensive alliance formed.
In regard to the formation of the new
state the Medford Mail-Tribune says:
by formally indorsing the move
ment of the new state of SiskiyOu and
appointing committees to launch the
campaign for secession. the Jackson
county press association struck a
popular chord and one destined to
have far reaching and beneficial re-
suits. To be sure, no state has ever
been divided, after admission, except
Virginia. but that is no reason why
several should not be, particularly

ulation are narrow -visioned moss

ergy in blocking progress.
