FIRST REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION
Other items Of interest in the pa.

Other items of interest in the pa
per were the following:
Geo. w. Kline came down from
Peshastin Saturday morning and
spent a few days with friends in this
city. He returned Wednesday after
noon. He is going to spend the sum-
mer on the banks of Lake Wenat-
chez.
w. E. Stevens departed for Wheel
er Hill last Monday, whittier he goes
to superintend the construction Of
reservoir to hold water for irrigation
purposes. He took four men with
him and work will be pushed all sum-
mer.
Postmaster Christensen, DR.. ]. E
Shore and A. F. Estes were in Wen
atchee Saturday as delegates to the
republican county convention from
Leavenworth. The first two gentle
men returned home the following
day, but the latter remained in the
county seat until Monday afternoon.
E. D. Northup, of the upper Chum-
stick, was in the city Saturday and
Sunday. He Informed the Advance
man that that portion of the county
was being settled by desirable
class of citizens, many of whom are
making splendid farms and homes.
Practically everybody knows Mr..
Northup, the man who always col
lects the road tax-nearly always
and in every instance unless con-
franted by a Vining or a Bernoudy.
Mr.. Northup came here to the repub-
lican county convention as dele
gate from Wenatchee Lake precinct.
L. H. Bowman, who at one time
was recognized as the 'tall syca-
more" of the Mining Center, in re-
publican politics, came down to We
natchee last Saturday to attend the
republican county convention. He
has lost none of his old time cunning.
1t seems that he knows which wire
to pull and the exact time to take
in slack. He was by far the ablest
man on the floor before the conven-
ton.
Last evening a report reached Re-
public to the effect that several car
loads of wheelbarrows, scrapers, etc.
were unloaded at Wenatchee to be
used in the construction of the Wen
atchee-Republic branch of the Great
Northern.
We have no reason to doubt this
report, so take it for granted. There
are more than one reason why it
looks right Jim Hill has announced
his intention to build at an early
date, and then he has kept corps
of engineers at work on the route, a
fact he would not have done was he
not in hurry to begin work in early
spring. It now looks as though we
would have a railroad by early fall.
Republic Miner.
The wheelbarrows, scrapers, ETC.,
referred to passed through Wenat-
chez, but were not unloaded here,
it evidently being James intention
to press those useful appliances Of
labor into service at some other
point. The Miner must be patient.
They'll come some day.

The Lost Chords.

The village concert was to be a
great affair. They had the singers,
they had the program sellers, they
had the doorkeepers and they would
doubtless have the audience. All they
needed was the piano, but that they
lacked. Nor could they procure one
anywhere.
At last the village organist learned
that one was possessed by Farmer
Hayseed, who lived "at the top O. the

men and van.

After fifteen months absence, exact

Roosevelt disembarked from the Kai-

disappointment of a large group of

UnfIatterInq Truth.

A Chicago physician gleefully tells
q child story at his own expense. The
i've children of some faithful patients
had measles, and during their rather
long stay in the improvised home hos
pital they never failed to greet his
daily visit with pleased acclamation.
The good doctor felt duly f1attered,
but rashly pressed the children. in the
days of convalescense, for the reason
of this sudden affection. At last the
youngest and most~indiscreet let slip
the better truth.
I'VE felt so sick that we wanted
awfully to do something naughty. but
we were afraid to be bad for fear you
and the nurse would give us more hor-
rid medicine. So we were awfully
glad to see you, always. cause you

A BURNING ERUPTION FROM
HEAD TO FEET

-Four years ago suffered severely
with terrible eczema, being a mass
OF soreE from head to feet and for six
weeks confined to my bed. During
that time suffered continual torture
from itching and burning. After being
given up by my doctor 1 was advised
to try Cuticura Remedies. After the
first bath with Cuticura Soap and ap-
plication of Cuticura Ointment l en-
joyed the first good sleep during my

tinued for about three weeks. At the
end of that time I was able to be

COUNTRY'S WEALTH IN OIL
Industry That Has Grown to Enor-
nous proportions Within a Few
Years.

The production of oil in the United
States has grown from nothing at the
time Of it's discovery to enormous pro-
portions Millions of barrels have been
taken from the country near the west
ern slope of the Alleghenies in west
ern Pennsylvania, and millions more
from the districts in West Virginia
and Ohio. Indiana has yielded it's
share and Illinois has been productive
beyond the dreams of avarice.
1t remained, however, for Kansas
and Oklahoma, together with the In
dian Territory, to open the eyes of the
modern driller and capitalists. When
the soil was first tapped in the Wild
eating operations of that section
great gushers rewarded the efforts Of
the men who had the courage and cap
ital to engage IN the enterprise. The
usual rush followed, but many thou
sands Of acres had been already taken
up and the war for supremacy began

her eyes with her hand. There goes
old Hiram Skinfint, and rather than
step on a poor black ant he picked 1t
up, and bet he is going to drop it
somewhere out of the reach of dan
ger"
Her husband laughed knowingly.
Not Hiram Skinflint, Mandy. He'll
go down to Jed Weatherby's general
store and order a pound of granulated
sugar. Then while Jed is looking an
other way he'll drop the ant among
the grains and tell Jed as long as his
sugar has ants in 1t he ought to sell II
at half price. Like as not he'll try to
get Jed to throw in two or three

The Sultan Of SuIu.

ity in his reektng island jungles. He
has tendency to do unexpected
things. as when he wanted to make
Alice Roosevelt sultana of Sulu.
The reason given for Kiram's
threatened visit out into the world is
his desire to superintend personally
the sale of his several casks of pearls
which his divers have brought up from
the blue depths of the Celebes sea,
They are valued at $25O,OOO.
The sultan of Sulu is young man,
but he gives the impression of know
Ing what he is about and just what
he wants. His head is rather large
and well-shaped. His skin is the color
Of old copper that has been polished.
His eyes are well apart, but he has a
trick of dropping the. lids that makes
him look sleepy and Indifferent He
has good, firm jaw and chin, with a
medium-sized straight nose.
To keep him out of mischief, Kiram
has been permitted to continue be-
lieving himself immensely. powerful.
When America took over the Philip
pines, there was an agreement with
the ruler of the Sulus. 1t was modelled
on the old Spanish treaty and guaran-
teed the Moros all the usual rites and
religious freedom. 1t provided that
the American flag be flown over the
islands, that America might occupy
any place it chose for military pur
poses; that America would continue
the Sultan's pay for ruling his peo
pie.

Controlled Newspapers.

The Atchisen Globe says that no ad.
vertiser has ever tried to control its ed
itorial policy, the remark being occa-
stoned by the charge often made nova
days. that the big advertisers direct
the editorial policy of newspapers.
The experience OF the Globe is the
experience of most newspapers. The
merchant who does great deal of ad-
vertising is more interested In the cir
culation department Of q newspaper
than in the editorial department. II q
daily paper goes to the homes of the
people. and is read by them, he is salts
fed, and 1t may chase after any theory
or fad, for all he cares. He has troubles
OF his own, and he isn't trying to shoul-
der those of the editorial brethren.
There are newspapers controlled by
people outside Of the editorial rooms,
and a good many Of them, more's the
pity; but the people exercising that
control are not the business men who
pay their money for advertising space
The newspapers which are established
for political purposes are often con-
trolled by chronic officeseekers, whose
first concern is their own interests.
There are newspapers controlled by
great corporations, and the voice of
such newspapers is always raised in
protest against any genuine reform.
The average western newspaper usu-
ally is controlled by it's owner, and he
is supposed to be in duty bound to make
all sorts of sacrifices at all sorts of
times; there are people who consider
it his duty to insult his advertisers,
just to show that he is free and inde-
pendent. If he shows decent respect
for his patrons, who pay him their
money, and make it possible for him to
carry on the business, he is ''subsi-
died" or controlled" The newspaper
| owner is a business man, like the dry
goods man or the grocer. The mer-
chants are expected to have considera-
ton for their customers, and they are
not supposed to be subsidized by the
man who spends five dollars with
them, but the publisher is expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he is ungrateful for the patron
age of his friends. 1t is a funny com
bination when you think it over
