ASCERTAIN PUB
Lie SENTIMENT
A. 4. PIPER THINKS THAT CfTT-
LENS SHOULD EXPRESS THEM.
SELVES TO COUNCIL ON FRAN.
LuISE NATTER.

A. A. Piper, local agent OF the
Great Northern railway, gives s,ma
more pe, tirent reasons for the gran
ing of the railroad franchise on Col
umbia street. He also believes that
it is up to the property owners tf
this street to express themselves "r
this matter to the members OF the
city countil He said to a reporter
OF the World this morning:
"The members OF the city council
seem to he almost unanimous in their
opinion that the franchise should IS
granted 81 far as Yakima st .r-.
They are willing that 1t should go
through to Second street, providing
it Is wanted; but they very natural
" want to be shown, and 1t Is right
that they should be. The franchise
matter had its origin from requests
made by property owners on the west
side OF Columbia street, between
Yakima and Second streets. A Pc
tition, signed by owners of about
three-fourths Of the foot frontage
between points mentioned has been
placed in the hands Of the council,
and there are some who signed the
petition Directing to this improve
ment who are now wishing they were
in position to sign in favor of in
stead of against it, simply because
they can now see that their proper
ty values would be more than doubled
IL their holdings were served with
an industry trahk.
Most of the property owners who
are opposing the granting Of the
franchise are the best business men
in Wenatchee, and 1t is undoubtedly
perfectly clear to them that 5000
feet Of ne warehouse business
property would have tendency to
prevent the 1850 feet no wserved by
the mill track from soaring to f1g-
ures corresponding to Seattle tide
land values. A track on Columbia
street would not hurt their business
any more than the present mill track
hiniers business to or from the de-
pot or to Mr.. Scheble's lumber yard,
located on our right-of-way. You
cannot run a railroad successfully
without locomotives and box cars.
"While I do not know whether
our company would accept a fran
chise to Yakima street only. it is my
personal opinion that they would not
care to build half a mile OF side
track and then stop just before they
reached any established business that
the track intended to serve.
The company is ready to put this
track In at its own expense now, and
if permitted to do so it will simply
put us in better shape to take care
of the business Of Wenatchee. Can
YOU have a district of this kind with
out track facilities. If the franchise
is not granted you will agree with
mo that Wenatchee will still be a
city ana we will have to arrange to
/ take care Of the business by putting
tracks some other place. Where do
you suppose that some place would
be- Would you want to have your
car load freight a mile or so from
tracks located north or south of the

STRONG PROTEST
He Wants the Tenth Regiment
To Remain in the State
This Summer.
ORDERED TO CAMP PERRY
RICHMOND PEOPLE BACKING THE
SENATOR BECAUSE THEY
WANT THE TROOPS FOR THE
NEXT FALL FESTIVAL.

Washington, May 6.-Senator Bev-
eridge, on behalf Of his Indianapolis
constituents. has written a letter Of
inquiry and protest to Adjutant- -Gener-
al Ainsworth, of the War Department
about the order recently issued, which
takes the Tenth regiment away from
Fort Benjamin Harrison for military
and target practice at Toledo and
Camp Perry, Ohio. the first day of Ju-
ly. Senator Beveridge tells General
Ainsworth that the people of Indianap-
oils and the whole state of Indiana are
duly proud of the new military post.
and that it was the hope that people
might have an opportunity this sum-
mer, to become better acquainted with
the officers and men at the post
A year ago last summer there was
no regiment at the post because the
place was just being finished ready to
as the Tenth regiment arrived. the
men went into camp and military ma
neuvers followed which occupied the
summer months and the people did not
have the chance to become we'll ac-
quainted.
The senator says in his letter that It
is a distinct disappointment for the
troops to be taken away this summer.
Indianapolis people have the impress
sion that the troops will be gone dur
ing the months of July. August and
September, and that the new post will
practically be deserted.

school to open next fall Miss Ches-
sic Joy, who taught in Franklin town
ship, and Miss Rosa Shank, who
taught at the Jackson school in Center
township, surrendered to Cupid and
will not teach next year.
A number of vacancies have been
caused by other reasons. Sickness
has not played prominent part in the
causes, however. Prof. A. L. Bald
win, who has been principal at the
Webster school for several years, has
resigned. He will retire from school
work. His place will be taken by A.
M. Tschaen. of Williamsburg. The
latter will be succeeded by Charles
