WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. a.
The japanese situation, in view of
the action of the Nevada legislature
in it's criticism of the president for
interfering with the California legis-
lature and strongly denouncing the
Japanese, together with renewed eff
forts in the California legislature,
was under consideration in the White
House today. The president talked
with several callers, among them
former Mayor Phelan, of San Fran
cisco. He repeated warnings against
irritating legislation. The president
believes the present Drew bill will
not be offensive to Japanese but any
other legislation more drastic will
prove exceedingly troublesome.

manager of the Wenatchee Fruit
Growers Association for a bunch of

that he will find that they are dam
aged.

expects to send these samples over

There are but few growers in the
valley now who feel any fears as to
serious damage from the cold wea-
ther.

SAYS HIS COUNTRY DEPENDS ON
GOOD SENSE OF UNITED
STATES GOVERNMENT TO PRE-
SERVE AMICABLE RELATIONS.
by Associated Press. }

TOKYO, Feb. 2.-Speaking in the
lower house, Minister Komura out
lined the foreign policy in a care
fully worded speech, the keynote of
which was "The foreign policy of this
empire should have. as an object the
maintenance of peace and develop
ment of national resources" He
dwelt on the relations of Japan and
America at length and spoke of ira
ditional friendship of the countries
with unity of purpose regarding af-
fairs of the far east. Speaking
of the doubt entertained in some
quarters concerning sincerity of in
tentions, Komura said "In order
to remove any Misunderstanding, the
two governments have deemed it ad-
visable to exchange diplomatic notes
and officially announcing the common
policy which I am convinced will be
largely instrumental in preserving
the repose of the orient"
Regarding the legislation now
pending in California, he said: "The
imperial government is relying on
the sense Of justice of the American
people, together with the friendly
disposition of the federal govern
ment. I am confident the question
will not lead to international COM
plications. -

TO OBSERVE
LINCOLN DAY
ALL SCHOOLS IN THE COUNTY
WILL CELEBRATE THE BIRTH
DAY OF EMANCIPATOR BY SPE-
CIAL EXERCISES.

AL the schools of the county will
observe the centenary of the birth
of Abraham Lincoln. This is the
statement made this afternoon by
County Supt. C. E. Bowersox. He
has notified every teacher in the
county to have fitting exercises dur
ing the afternoon especially, and to
dwell particularly on the childhood
of Lincoln. Wherever it is possible,
he suggests special programs, but If
this cannot be done he wants proper
reference to the day made in the
regular work.
As Lincoln's birthday, which is
February ~, falls on Friday, the
last school day of the week, there
will be better opportunity to make
provisions for special exercises. 1t
is understood that already some of
the schools have made provisions for
elaborate exercises but it is the de-
sire of the superintendent that there
should be an observance in all of the
schools.
Mr.. Bowersox also urges that the
patrons of the school make an effort
to be present and take part in the
exercises. This action on their part
will encourage the pupils and will
have tendency to instill patriotism
in the young minds

BILL INTRODUCED
To DIVIDE COUNTY
LEGISLATOR HAS PLAN TO d.
VIDE DOUGLAS, MAKING big
TY SEAT.

OLYMPIA, Feb. $50 far only
one bill has been introduced to the
legislature which provides for the
creation of new county. Represen-
tative F. T. Campbell has a bill In
the house which proposes to divide
Douglas county and to create the
county of Big Bend.
In the proposed division Big Bend
county gets the larger share Of the
territory. Simply stated, the divi-
sion line begins at Cabinet rapids, on
the Columbia river, below Rock Is
land, and strikes northeasterly along
Moses Coulee and Grand Coulee to-
the Okanogan county boundary in
the Columbia river.
The county seat of Big Bend coun-
ty will be Ephrata, while the county
seat of Douglas will remain at Wa
terville.
One of the arguments for the coun-
ty division is that residents of the
southern part of Douglas cannot
reach the county seat at Waterville
except by taking long and tedious
journey. For instance, residents of
Ephrata must take the Great North
ern to Wenatchee, a distance of Is
miles, then lay over for IL hours and
take the Columbia steamer to Oron-
do, 16 miles, then the stage from
Orondo to Waterville, distance of
eight miles; or, in winter, stage it
from Wenatchee, in cold and stormy
weather, distance of Is miles The
trip occupies from % to 80 hours.
Towns not on the railroad are at a
greater disadvantage.
The Campbell bill names John
Erickson, Louis Delivuk and Frank
Wingate as the first county commits
sioners for Big Bend county. 1t is
proposed that they shall hold Office
until January 1911. If the division
is made, Big Bend county will pay
that part of the bonded and warrant
Indebtedness of Douglas county In
the proportion that the assessed valu-
alton of property lying within the
proposed new boundaries bears to the
whole property valuation of the
present Douglas county. The adjust
ment of the valuation will be based
on the assessment for 1908, provided
that neither county shall be charged
with the purchase of any county
property or building whihc shall fall
within or be retained by the other
county
When Big Bend county is organ
lied the county commissioners are
given power to name the first set of
officers, who shall hold Office until
January, 1911. Big Bend county is
f., attached to the judicial district of
Douglas county until otherwise pro-
vided by law.
The books of record, so far as they
affect the territory lying within the
boundaries Of Big Bend county, viii
be copied and transferred to Ephrata.
All original volumes whihc affect
only property in Big Bend county
will be transferred.

fame Of SUNDAY
IS ON WANE
ATTACK ON POPULAR ACTRESS
OF SPOKANE GAVE HIM A TER
RIBLE JOLT.

SPOKANE, Feb. 2.-The wane of
Rev. Billy Sunday in Spokane has set
in, if current comment to be heard
on the streets, in the cars and in the
homes is any criterion. With his
hell and birthstone sermons the not
ed revivalist certainly had Spokane
going for a while, but when he made
his wholesale and unqualified attack
upon the theatre and the theatrical
profession in his sermon on "Amuse-
ments," he aroused the ire of lit
tie woman who has endeared herself
to tens of thousands of the women
of Spokane, and when Jessie Shirley
came out in a spirited defense of her
profession in an open letter to the
local press an undercurrent of resent
ment set in that rapidly rose to the
surface and now threatens to engulf
Rev. Sunday in a popular disapproval
of his methods.
Miss Shirley, at the head of her
stock company, has packed the Audi
forum theatre nightly for four con-
secutive years, and there is no wo-
man in Spokane who compares with
her in popularity with the masses.
and since the publication of her able
defense of her profession and coun-
ter attack on Rev. Sunday and his
methods, she is literally being
swamped with mail communications
and telephone calls complimenting
and approving her Standard in
cluded her correspondents are sew
eral local minister's. The saloon ele-
ment and those who in a general
way were opposed to the coming OF
the great revivalist, are quick to seize
the opportunity to fan the flame OF
disapproval of the Rev. Sundays re-
vivals. and many are predicting that
his coming will leave but tiny rip
nile on the surface after he has gone.

PR0SSER To BUILD
HOTEL At SCENIC
OWNER OF FAMOUS RESORT IN
THE CASCADE MOUNTAINS TO
ERECT MODERN STRUCTURE,
DESIGNED AFTER SWISS CHA
LET.

On a scale far excelling in beauty
and charm the structure destroyed
by fire just before the holidays, in
December last, j. v. PrOsser, owner
of Scenic Hot Springs, just over the
summit of the Cascades on the Great
Northern and popular with Wenat-
chez people, will build a new hotel
to be fully furnished and opened be-
fore the first day of the Alaska-Yu-
kon-Pacific exposition.
The new structure will contain So
sleeping rooms, large, well lighted
and airy, with six suites having pri-
vate bath. The style of architecture
will be rustic with an exterior effect
of a Swiss chalet. The location of
the hotel at the foot of the Cascade
Mountains is one of the most pictur-
esque parts of the whole Pacific
northwest.
The new Scenic Hot Springs hotel
will be located on the site of the
burned structure and will be sup
piled with the hot mineral water
which bubbles forth from a crevice
in the mountains short distance
from the hotel. The waters are
heavily mineralized and have been
proved to contain healing elements
especially valuable in cases of rheu-
matism, neuralgia and kidney trou-
bles.
Mr.. Prosser purposes to build
largely with view to entertaining
pleasure seekers and tourists from
the east and for this reason will
spare neither pains nor money to
make the new structure beautiful,
both as to it's exterior and interior.
All the rooms will have running hot
and cold water; there will be wide
piazza on the main floor and on the
ground floor will be located the new
and modern separate baths for wo-
men and men, built in concrete and
solid rock and thoroughly modern
in every respect.
The new Scenic Hot Springs hotel
will cost approximately $4,000, Mr..
Prosser states. The structure will be
as nearly fireproof as possible, the
walls being made of metal lath and
noncombustible plaster. A double
force of workmen will be put at the
task Of building Scenic Hot Springs
hotel as soon as the weather will
permit and construction will be
rushed with the intention of having
the hotel ready for occupancy May
goth.
81 nave been more than pleased
by the assurance / have received
from hundreds of friends in Seattle
and elsewhere that when I rebuild al
Scenic they will all come and see
me-" said Mr.. Prosser.
'Of course the cuisine and general
conduct of the hotel will be on the
same lines as prevailed prior to the
fire last December. We will have
the best help obtainable and the fur.
nishing of the house will be nothing
but first-class."
