Leavenworth Manufacturing

The manufacturing industries OF the
state of Washington were exploited in
the Seattle Post-Intelligencer Saturday.
The following is said about some of
the enterprises of Chelan county:
In 1902 the Lamb-Davis Company
came to Leavenworth and began the
preliminary work of erecting one of the
largest sawmills in eastern Washington.
Since then over 100000 has been
spent in erecting buildings, building
dams and buying timber. The compa-
ny's mill cuts 100000 feet per day,
and employs about $50 men. A large
planning mill and box factory are run in
connection with the mill.
THE Charles Freytag mill, about six
miles from Leavenworth, cuts about
10000 feet per day, and employs six
men.
Two miles from Leavenworth is To-
Gated the ]. B. Hathaway mill, which
has capacity Of 10000 feet per day,
and employs about twenty men.
The Peshastin sawmill, owned by
T. c. and c. M. Hendricks, about four
miles east of Leavenworth, has capacity
of $4,000 feet per day, and employs
fifteen men.
The other mills in the vicinity of
Peshastin are saving about 1000 feet
per day, and employ ten men each. .

Noted Comforts at Modern Fair

The Spokane Interstate fair has dis
covered few new wrinkles. 1t takes
money to run big fair like the Spo-
kane Interstate fair, which will be given
this year September 30 to Is. Some
thing over 100000 will be spent this
year, of which sum 100000 goes in
premiums, purses and attractions. The
admission to the fair is not steep; yet
the admissions form the chef source
of revenue of the fair. The 500, 900
must be taken in during the six days,
or the fair goes broke; for the 500, 900
has practically been spent before the
opening day, or must be paid out
whether the people come or not.
Any one who attended last years
fair realized there was much more to
see and more comforts attending the
pleasure and excitement than may be
found at theater or circus. Telegraph
and telephone service at the command
of the visitor, comfortable grandstand,
resting places for the weary, permanent
quarters for several lodges, many other
things and-good restaurants.
There is another little source OF rev.
enue for the fair, at no cost to the
management and almost no trouble.
There is little wrinkle in modern fair
management. There are a dozen or
more restaurants where, for a most
moderate price, one may get clean,
wholesome food that is we'll served.

THE ACQUITTAL OF SCHIYtLY
interesting Scenes Attending the Last Chap
ter in SChiVely Trial

Twenty-three for Shively, but not
25.
Which the meaning of the same is
that on cbunt No. 3, being No. l on
account of the demurers sustained, he
got exactly % votes for acquittal as
against rs for conviction. 1t was
more interesting for him as on charge
Q, that of drawing two salaries at one
and the same time, the vote for the
acquittal was but IA to &c. A change
of two votes would have convicted on
this count but the wise ones say that
the insurance commissioner had sew
eral up his sleeve if he had needed
them, statement that is borne out
by the vote.
The Senate chamber was packed to
suffocation during the closing day of
the trial and people stood on chairs
and ratings in the corridor and craned
their necks to see and strained their
ears to hear the finish. Mr.. Israel
wove with subtle skill web of techni-
calities around his client, appealed
with eloquence to the sympathies of
the senate, and never got within a
thousand miles of the facts in the case.
Young Mr.. Lee. whom the gray-haired
attorney for the defense accused of an
attempt to win his spurs, made mast
erly address, in the face of certain de-
feat. Not only did the young man
speak with convincing eloquence, but
he showed thorough knowledge of
the law in the case.
Senators, and especially those who
voted for acquittal, explained their
votes in more or less tedious detail,
usually more. Not one but covered
his vote for acquittal with the mantle
of technically. In fact, the insurance
commissioner might well have prayed
to be delivered from his friends, since
their explanations did his standing in
the eyes of the world little good.
When on the first vote President
Ruth, one of the fourteen who went
down the line of the counts with a
vote not guilty, and one of the few
on that side who made no explanation,
wound up the vote with ringing not
guilty" there was an attempt at ap-
plause from the gallery which was
sternly repressed, but it is not evident
that the spectators would have broken
any records if they had been allowed
to cheer to their hearts content.

The Horse Collar

A gentleman with a good deal of
experience in working horses says that
horse collars should be hard, as the
shoulders of the horse are much like
the hands Of man. He says:
Generally, all implements designed
for the use of man are provided with a
handle to fit the hand. There are ex-
ceptions, as the ak, fork and hoe
handles. The handles are of uniform
standard size, that are expected to fit
the hand. They are rounded, hard
and smooth, but never soft for the pur-
pose of being easier of manipulation.
There is always more or less friction in
the use of hand implements, and to
obviate it gloves are worn until the
hand becomes developed and calloused
by the use OF the implement.
The same qualifications should exist
in horse collar. 1t should be of a
proper length and snugly fitted to the
horses shoulder. 1t should be stuffed
full and round and be hard and smooth
to the touch. AS there is always con-
siderable friction, there should be a
sweat pad next the shoulder to receive
the friction until the shoulders become
properly Injured to the action of the
collar. OF course, the names must be
drawn up high enough so the draught
will not center on the shoulder joint.
The logic of this is simple. If the
handle of a manual implement gals the
hand, it is because of its roughness or
improper shape, never because it is
too hard. If it is to be continuously
used the man does not put on mitten
in warm weather to overcome a defect
in it; neither does he demand that the
handle be made OF something sort, but
simply that it shall be properly shaped,
smooth and hard. The collar, which
is round and hard, rolls on the skin at
every motion of the animal, somewhat
after the manner of ball bearing, adj
hitting the air, and thereby cooling
the parts; but the flat, soft collar sticks
so closely that it compels the skin to
move on the underlying flesh in such
way as to produce irritation and deep
seated CALLS

"MAkE GOOD"

BY HERBERT KAUFMAN
Make good.
Cut out "iP' could" and should,
And start in to saw wood.
You can still have the best
Things in life, like the rest
Of the men who've achieved
Just because they've believed
In themselves. You're deceived
If you think fortune comes
With a rattle of drums
And fanfare OF state
To hand yours on a plate.
That isn't the way
That she visits today.
You must get out and rustic
And hustle and hustle;
You need all your muscle,
For you've got to tussle,
Plunge into the fight,
Hit to left and to right,
And keep crashing and smashing.
Don't let up with your striking
Till things meet your liking.
For Gods sake, stop bawling-
Instead, do some mauling.
1t makes the world bitter
To look at a gutter.
Fate scowls when he sees
A grown man on his knees.
A man with his health
Is mine jammed with wealth,
Full of UNEMPLOYED lodes.
Why, the freckled-back toads
Have the sense to keep jumping
And here you are Pumping!
Come, now, strike your gait
1t isn't too late.
There's no such thing as fate!
Drop that fool talk of luck,
Get grip on your pluck,
And buck.
Begin-To grin-And win.

AMENDMENT SHOWED UNDER.
Majority Against Prohibition Measure in
Alabama will Run Above $4,000.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 80.
Later returns from the state
Indicate that yesterdays ma
jority against the prohibition
constitutional amend ment
will run above %, 900. It ap-
pears that a vote Of not less
125, 900 was polled, the larg~
est in the history Of the
State.
As the sweeping nature of
the defeat of the amendment
is realized there is a DISPOSE
ton in all circles to analyze
the result for it's probable eff
feet on future legislation in
the State. Industrial leaders
and business men of Birming>
ham are almost unanimous in
their belief that the result
was a rebuke to recent drastic
legislation and a declaration
of the people Of Alabama Of
their determination to return
to conservatism. Leaders of
the Birmingham chamber of
commerce believe the election
will have the effect of bring
ing a great deal of Eastern
capital to Alabama which has
been timid for the past two
or three years.
Leaders of the amendment
forces were overwhelmed by
the news of the result, as they
we're absolutely confident Of
victory up to the last moment.
Governor Conner left for Mis-
sissippi last night on a fish

that the men of Alabama did
not wish to write into their

nor surrender rights they
have expressly reserved, "said
United States Senator john
ston.
1T does not mean the re-
turn of the saloons nor any
backward step in Eublicmor~
ais.
cit means that Alabama is
conversative and not to be
shaken off her feet by mere
sentimental appeals"
