SIMMONS WILL PAY
POLL TAX
EX-DEPUTY SHERIFF CONFESSED
JUDGMENT THIS MORNING IN
JUDGE SUMMERS COURT AND
WILL COME UP WITH HIS 81

The cause of the City of Wenat-
chez vs. w. T. Simmons, brought to
enforce the city poll tax ordinance,
came on for trial this morning be-
fore Justice of the Peace Sam r.
Sumner, upon change OF venue from
Judge Palmer. The attorneys for the
defendant, Martin & Barrows, filed a
motion for second change of venue,
but under the laws of the state of
Washington only one change is al
lowed unless some additional ground
therefor exists, which was not patent
at the time of granting the first
change. No new reasons were as
signed by the defendant, and the mo-
tion was accordingly overruled.
Inasmuch as. the attorneys for the
defendant at the time of filing the
original motion before Judge Palmer
practically admitted all the allega-
tions of the complaint, except the va
hdity OF the city ordinance and state
laws under which it was passed, the
question became one of law regard
ing the enforceability of the laws.
The city attorney offered to stipulate
with opposing counsel that the ques-
tion of law involved be argued be-
fore the superior court, and that any
Judge in the state might be called in.
so that argument of the law could
be directed to one familiar with all
phases of the subject, or before any
local attorney, both of whom were to
be chosen by the attorneys for the
defendant, but for reasons not stated
Mr.. Martin would not consent to this
proposition, and upon suggestion of
his attorney Mr. Simmons confessed
judgment
It Is understood that an appeal
will be taken to the superior, and
IL necessary to the supreme court
of the state, for the purpose OF test
ing the question.
The city council has heretofore In
structed the city attorney to COM
mence action against all persons re-
fusing to pay the tax, and 1t is pos
sible more suits will be instituted i'm
mediately.

REAL ESTATE IS SLOW


Real estate men all over the city
report business slow, although they
seem to consider it the natural
thing for transfers of land to be few
er now than at other timse during
the year Farmers in the east are
busy at this season, so that real es-
tate business is usually light during
July and August.
Some have considered that per-
.haps the light crops have scared peo-
pie some this year, even though they
know that this year has been the ex-
cepiton, but the general opinion h
that this Is simply the time of year
for real estate to be slow.
When people begin to return from
the fair, the real estate business Ii
expected to pick up so that August
which is often dull month, may be
more lively than nsual...-@-sss..s.-ssa s,-sss

BOAT EXCURSIONS
ON JULY 4TH
CHELAN PREPARING FOR A BIG
JULY AND EXCURSION RATES
WILL BE OFFERED.

The big celebration in North Gen.
tral Washington this 4th of July is
being arranged for at Chelan. The
commercial club there has extended
an invitation to the outside towns
asking them to join in the good time
that is offered.
Ball teams from Wenatchee, Wa
terville. Bridgeport and Okanogan
have been asked to schedule games
in Chelan for that day but so far
only Bridgeport has accepted. 1t is
hoped that another game for the day
may be fixed between Waterville and
Wenatchee.
Very liberal rates have been made
by the Columbia & Okanogan Steam
boat company. The fare the round
rate from Wenatchee, including the
stage ride from Chelan Falls, Is
scheduled at 81. Tickets will be
good going on the 3rd or 4th and
returning any time not later than
the 9Th. Already a large number
of young people in Wenatchee have
made their plans to spend the 4th
In Chelan and it is expected that the
largest crowd which has ever visited
the lake city from this point will
take advantage of the low rates Of
fered and the fine entertainment ar
ranged for. For the evening of the
4th of July magnificent display Of
fireworks will be given and much
other entertainment during the day
will soon be announced
No special rate has been announc-
ed up to this time for excursions up
the lake from Chelan, but 1t is ex-
pected that something of this kind
will be offered for there are hun
jreds of people in Wenatchee who
have heard a great deal about the
wonderful scenery of the Lake Che
Ian country and this will be strong
additional inducement to them to
take in this excursion If in connec-
tion with 1t they can take a ride up
to the head OF the lake and back
giving them an opportunity to wit
ness the unparalleled scenic beauty.

BEAUTIFUL APPLE
"CHELAh'
c. &. o. NURSERY co. EXPLOIT
ING HANDSOME APPLE WHICH
1T IS CLAIMED WILL REVOLU.
TIONIZE THE BUSINESS.

The management of the c. & O.
Nursery company this year has about
5 200 young trees of the much lauded
"Chelan" apple. These are not for
sale this year, but there will be thou
sands of them for sale next year.
u. r. Snyder of the nursery company
predicts that in ten years time this
lapple will be the best seller of any
variety in the world. He has a num-
Der of boxes of this variety on dis
play in this city and it is certainly
a handsome apple. 1t is of a rich
yellow, with delicate blush. The
apple has been kept in common stor-
age during the past winter and it has
been taken out of storage in just as
perfect condition as when placed in
the cellar last fall. The apple is just
|as delicate in taste as in appearance
and has the earmark of making just
as great sensation among the apple
connoisseurs as has the Delicious,
and the c. & o. Nursery company
management expects to make a for
tune from the apple.
The "Chelan" is of Chelan origin.
Some 90 years ago "Old John" an
indian. brought whole handful OF
Bellf1ower apple seeds from Walla
Walla and planted them on his ranch
near Chelan. There was but one of
the seeds which produced a tree, and
this is the one which has furnished
the scions for the "Chelan" apple.
Last year this tree. had 1S boxes of
fruit and the year before II boxes.
Apparently it is a hardy fruit and
an early producer.

FORE 1T WILL BE ACCEPTED.

The new city pump was given a
trial test yesterday and was kept
running for about nine hours. From

The new wooden pipe which has
been laid from the old pumping plant

days.
Water Commissioner Sherburne
states that the water regulations are

The water committee and the city
engineer meet this afternoon at the

1900 CATTLE To
CROSS BRIDGE
THE COFFTN-RABCOCK COMPANY
WILL DRIVE A HERD OF 2,oo0
CATTLE ACROSS THE WENAT.
CHEZ BRIDGE TUESDAY.

A wire was received by Will Little
of the Little-Wetsel company. Satur-
day, from 8. p. Hepton, the manager
of the stock ranch of the Cofiin-Bab-
cock company, of North Yakima. 1t
was dated Wilson Creek, and read:
Reported here that Wenatchee
bridge is unsafe for cattle. Advise
Immediately" Signed, Cofin-Bab-
cock company.
Mr.. Little replied: THE bridge is
absolutely safe for anything. No
truth whatever in the report" Sign
ed, Little-Wetsel Co.
Two weeks ago Mr.. Hepton was
here, having ridden ON horseback
from the Moses Coulee, picking out
the best route on which to drive an
enormous herd of cattle, 1000 head,
from Moses Coulee to the Colochum
ranch of the Cofiin-B Babcock company
at that time. He conferred with Mr..
Little, who gave him considerable as
|sistance. The cattle were bought
from Drumheller Bros, the big stock
men OF Walla Walla. whose great
ranch lies near Moses lake. They
are selling out two entire brands to
the North Yakima men, and still have
/ 900 head left.
The Coffin-Babcock people are TAX
ing the cattle through to their ex-
Itensive Colockum ranch. They had
about 400 cattle there and the inten-
,tiOn is to fatten the stock and sell It
in the fall, when the market is good
They also have about 10000 sheep
lscattered through the mountains be-
tween Ellensburg and the Columbia
river. Their ranch comprises about
six sections.
Mr.. Little was very much incensed
to receive the telegram from Mr..
Hepton, for 1t plainly shows that in
Wilson Creek Also the bridge has
Its enemies who have their knocking
hammers busily engaged. 1t Is ex-
pected that the herd will pass over
the bridge some time next Tuesday.

.STRAHORN BACKS
.b|G[ANDPR0JECT
PROPOSES TO IRRIGATE 10000
ACRES IN SNAKE RIVER VAL
LEY NEAR PASCO-FORMS
FOUR COMPANIES.

Robert E. Strahorn, president of
the North Coast railroad, has enter
ed the reclamation field. and, togeth-
er with his associates, he proposes to
to put 10000 acres of land in the
Snake river valley near Pasco under
irrigation.
To carry out this project Mr.. Stra-
horn has organized four companies,
with total capital of $3.50, 900. They
are the Pasco Fruit Lands, which is
the name of the company which will
buy and hold the lands, capital $780,
900; the Pasco Reclamation company,
which is to put the land under irri-
cation, capital 100000; the Finance
company, which is to have charge of
arranging the finances of the enter
prise, and the Avenex company, cap
ital $4,000. Besides Mr.. Strahorn,
the organizers are r. ]. Danson, the
Spokane attorney, and P A. Devers,
banker, now living in Portland.
Water for the irrigation project
will be pumped from the Snake river,
the pumps to be operated by power
received from the Northwest Light
and Power company, of which Mr.
Strahorn is the principal owner. This
company develops its power at Ma
chez, 10 miles above North Yakima,
and it has light and power plants at
North Yakima, Kennewick, Sunny
side and other points. There are 49,
900 horsepower available at this
point, half of which is now being de-
veloped. The company has ordered
$4,000 worth of new machinery and
will install generators to develop the
full power available.
A power transmission line is now
being constructed to Pasco by the
company, and the new company is
now acquiring lands to be turned into
the big irrigation project. There are
about 10000 acres of land available
for irrigation in the district in which
Mr.. Strahorn's company is operating,
and it is expected to acquire and
water all OF 1t.

investments and is going into the
Methow valley with view OF buying
an apple ranch.
The gentleman is familiar with the
Wenatchee valley and it will be in
teresting to hear what he has to say
of the Methow.
Others say the Methow valley is
another Wenatchee, and If such is the
case those who have money will do
well in investing 1t in the up-river
valley.
Colbert and Elliott are taking a
great many people up the river and
expect to leave Wednesday morning
with another crowd in addition to the
regular Sunday trip.
