MADE PROMISES TO THE PRESI.
DENT WHICH THEY WILL
NOT NOW FULFILL.
Agreed to Honestly Revise Tariff
Downward if President Would Aid
in Retaining Rules.

WASHINGTON, April 7.-(SpeciaD
Although the public scarcely hears
the echo of it. a momentous struggle
for mastery is now being Waged here
in the national capital, the outcome
of which is of nation wide Importance.
Whether President Taft's recomnen-
dations to congress relative to the
kind of tariff revision are to be Su-
perior or inferior to those of the pro-
tetced interests represented by the
Cannon Aldrich-Dalzell oligarchy, is
the big issue that is being fought out

for believing, however, that the regular
organization will not have it's way, or
that it will not continue to dominate
the making of national legislation as
it has throughout the last three repub-
lican administrations.
President Taft is a much chagrined
man. He has been f1agrantly deceived. |

The Cannon clique apparently cared

Tells Ohio Friends of Wenatchee.

One of the late arrivals from Ohio
writes to friends there describing hel
trip and conditions as she finds then
in this part of the valley.
On March the second,
Nineteen nine,
We started for Washington
Ger the Great Northern line.
Twas a beautiful morning, <
Many friends were there
To see us off
For this country so fair.
Such a lot of good things
They gave us to eat,
We have never since
Enjoyed such a treat.
There were fruit cakes
And cookies, chicken and pie
hope to go back there
Once more ere die.
At length we got started,
This land to find,
And soon the dear friends
Were left far behind.
OF course we felt lonely
And sad for awhile,
Til the many fine sights
Our thoughts did beguile.
All the names of our party
| can not here give,
For in the same city
We did not all live.
We numbered about fifty,
And we had good time
On our trip to the west
Ger the Great Northern line
On we sped through valleys
And forests Of pine,
Stopped at the cities,
All along the line.
Rivers and lakes,
High mountains appear,
And you'll scarcely believe it,
But we saw some deer.
There were Indians and cowboys
At some stations along,
Some gay lads with US
Always sang them a song.
Ere the fourth day was passed
To the Rockies we came,
We enjoyed the view
From the back of the train.
The scenery was grand,

GO AND SEE THESE
PHOTOS

The beautiful photographs of the
Methow valley on exhibit at the Of
fee of the Methow Canal company.
They are wonderfully descriptive
of that great fertile valley, whose
broad tableland bottoms extend for
miles along the banks Of the Methow
river.
To those who are interested in the
development of the Columbia river
country and the promotion of fruit
culture, let us say. that nowhere in
this great state of ours, rich in her
natural resources, is there tract of
land SO delightful as in the Methow
valley.
The Methow river, as viewed from
the hills above it, winds through the
fertile valley, whose bottom lands
extend in either direction to the
green hills, timber covered, as a sill
very ribbon.
Aside from Its commercial values.
those who have seen the Methow val
| ley, pronounce it beautiful.
Those who are accustomed to hills
devoid of timber will best appreciate
its grandeur-the contrast between
the rugged hills whose great blue
green trees tower to the skies and
the flat valley whose lands are dot
tied here and there with patch of
alfalfa, an orchard, a garden, the
quiet, well-painted home, large and
spacious.
The Methow valley claims many of
the most prosperous ranches in the
Estate and considering their earning
capacity it is no idle assumption.
Many of those who are buying now
and have contracted with the Met
how Canal company to improve their
property, are building little summer
houses that they may go to the Met
how now to enjoy its scenery and to
catch it's fish, pending the bearing
of their trees.
We recommend that you see the
photographs of the Methow valley
displayed in the offices of the Methow
Canal company opposite the postof-
fee in Wenatchee. If you are I'M
able to call in and see them send for
copies and descriptive matter. We
know that you will regret it very
much If you do not

Impressive, sublime,
More so than most places
Along the line.

Along the line.
We arrived in Wenatchee
About five next morn,
We might have felt homesick,
Sad and forlorn,
For where could we go?
Or what should we do?
Were questions which arose
For no one we knew.
But here just before us,
AS together we stand,
Is reception committee
With badges in hand.
How early they arose
I am glad to relate,
To greet the new corners
From the Buckeye state.
They gave us box
OF fine apples to eat,
And with us began
To march up the street.
The commercial club rooms
Was the place where we went,
And the morning there
Was delightfully."- spent.
The mayor of the city
Made a very fine speech,
Followed by business men
And the ministers each.
Some music, more apples,
Then we went for a ride,
To see the fine orchards,
The western mans pride.
Some stayed in the city,
But we bought a ranch
Where prices in real estate
Are sure to advance.
The place is called Malaga,
Anu mere we are tOlu
That most every day
Many lots are sold.
Few storms ever sweep
Ger this valley fair:
The water is pure,
AS is also the air.
The soil is fertile
'Tis volcanic ash;
1t will raise good crops
Which will bring in the cash.
And not alone here
Does the dollar hold sway,
For other good things
Are coming this way;
Fine churches and schools,
We are so glad to know.
For without these essentials
A place cannot grow.
The people are friendly,
Seem glad that we came;
There is plenty of sunshine,
But very little rain.
| want you to see
Both sides of the west,
And to tell you the truth
I have done my best.
Sometimes it is windy,
There are snakes quite a few,
But what does it matter
When all around you
The trees are just bending
With all kinds of fruits.
There are very few places
Where everything suits.
There is dust and hot weather,
But what do we care,
When of so many good things
We get such a share.
| still love Ohio.
But for many reasons, you see,
I think the west
Is the best place for me.
We have left the homeland
And dear friends behind,
But think this valley
The best place We can find.
