Withhold the Names

Incidentally it developed that the
names of the ball committee members
are to be withheld. The fear of fric-
tion over the invitations has led to this
arrangement.
Colonel Sherman, president of the
Mexican war veterans, asked that any
surplus that may remain in the treas

make a fresh appeal for funds.

Most of the New Corners Take up
Farming, While More than Halt

SPOKANE. Wash, March 25.-Sta-
tistics compiled by the Spokane Cham
Der of Commerce show that rs per cent
of the newcomers into the Northwest
during the fiscal year ended February
%. 1909, turned to farming, stock
raising and dairying, while of the 9TH
ers more than SO per cent took up
orcharding and chicken growing In
districts tributary to the settled COM
munities.
Of the thousands of visitors to the
rooms of the chamber of commerce
since January l. 1908, the majority, in
GLIDING men and women from all walks
of city life, came to the northwest to
seek homes in the rural districts; not
to become general farmers. but to take
up some special phase of the work and
in the greater number of instances it is
fruit growing.
The practice of intensive farming
more especially apple culture, has in
a measure, solved the problem of the
American trait of the farmer seeking
city life and the city man dreaming
of rural happiness, and the nearness
of the irrigated districts to the towns
and cities in the northwest has served
to satisfy both. Small tracts, electric
railways, telephones, rural mail routes
make a combination of the best of
city and country, and thousands are
passing useful and busy lives in these
districts.

case, Mr.. Blaine, according to the side
lights thrown upon his character by his
Wife's Letters" had set his own
thoughts upon the portfolio of state
rather than the position of chief ex-
