Representative Martin of Colorado
continues to introduce resolutions to
investigate the sale to the sugar trust
Of the friar lands In the Philippines
One of his latest inquiries concerns
what Is known as the Calamba estate.
which was in some sense the cause Of
the Filipino rebellion in 1906. Mr.
Martin referred to the fact that it was
the declared purpose of the United
States in purchasing the friar lands to
"break them up into small holdings
for tenants" Yet newspaper dispatch
es Of month ago had said that 10000
acres Of the Calamba estate had been
sold by the government to the Dilling
ham sugar interests Of Honolulu. He
characterized the failure to put this
land into the hands of small holders,
rs originally contemplated. and the
sale of is to sugar interests las moth
Ing short Of crime"
The latest twist as to Colonel
Roosevelt's attitude on his return to
this country is given by the prospec-
tive meeting between him and Frank
B. Kellogg in Europe. Mr.. Kellogg has
maintained the same close relations to
the Taft administration as he did to
that of Mr.. Roosevelt. Just before his
departure for Europe it is known that
Mr.. Kellogg was in consultation with
President Taft. and on this slim basis
of 70 ot ~ ;cs c,,ry,,icod in Soma ono rforo
that he bears message from the pres
ent to the former occupant Of the
White House. Much more significant
to my mind was Roosevelt's curt eN-
swer to the cablegram appointing him
to represent the Unite1 Mates at the
dent Tafts message was warm and
elaborate. that of Colonel Roosevelt
consisted of but one word. Accept"
The sting of this. If sting there was in
it. was afterward somewhat removed
by Colonel Roosevelts cablegram to
the same appointment. In which he
stated that he accepted gladly and
asked that his thanks be conveyed to
the president for the appointment.
Friends of Roosevelt state that the
accept" cabIegram was his first CON-
munication to Taft since March 4.
1909. Coupled with the Pinchot inter-
view and the appointment Of John
Callan O'Laughlin as Roosevelt's pri-
vate secretary. it bears out certain sto-
ries that have been flying about Wash
ington for the last year. These stories
were to the effect that there were
strained relations between Roosevelt
and his successor. There certainly Is
change from the Dear VIII" days.

Value of Plant Nearly 100000
The value of the plant of the
Farmers Telephone & Telegraph
company is estimated at $9S,500. The
system is all in good working order
and is paying a good dividend ON the
investment. There has been on the
average of one new phone each day
installed since the organization of
the company.
The Secretary.
The success of the company in a
large measure has been due to the
efforts of the Secretary H. C. Little
field-in fact, he has been a great
factor
H. G. Littlefield was born in Ma
Chias, Maine, fifty years ago. He
left Maine at the age of II years and
settled in Minnesota at Minneapolis
where he remained until 1900. In
that year he came to Wenatchee and
operated a fruit ranch in this valley
for several years. He was elected
secretary of the Wenatchee CONNER
cial Club and secretary of the tele-
phone company at about the same
time. A little later he was eletced
by the council to serve in the office

untrue. The speech was devoted to
a review of Chicago and Illinois poll
tics for the past twenty-five years. The
senator charged the Tribune had SIMS
ter motives in its attacks. and, saying
that it had been fighting him ever
since 1884, he charged it was inspired
because of its failure to control his
course as public man.
Many other prominent Illinois poll
ticians have become involved in the
affair. and the Cook county grand jury
has found number Of indictments.
The scandal coming to light also deals
with contracts for furnishings for the
state capitol. in this respect resem-
cling the Harrisburg PA, capitol case,
that startled the world at the time.
This was unearthed in the invesriga-s
ton being made by State Attorney
Burke. Senator aoltslaw had been in
dicted on perjury charge In connec-
ton with furniture contract and
upon advice of his lawyers when Of
fered immunity agreed TO make con-
fession.
Then be told the grand jury that he
had received $500 for his vote for

iative Jack pot" and promise of ST 800
as bis share of the starehouse furni-
ure deal.

Organized i'm 1904.
The Farmers Telephone & Tele-
graph company was organized in the
summer of 1904. At that time Ar
thur Gum was operating a small line
for the high line canal. He con-
ceived the idea of enlarging the sys-
tenn throughout the valley A few
of the leading fruit growers were
called in and it was decided to or
ganize a local company, stock to be
owned by the subscribers The prin-
cipal among these was z. A. Lanham,
to whom more than to anyone else
must be given the credit for carry
ing the company through the doubt
full period of its existence. During
the whole existence of the company
Mr.. Lanham has devoted much of his
time and money in it's interest. The
following figures will show the
growth of the organization: 1904, 81
subscribers; 1905, 1877; 1906, 406;
1907, 6O3; 1908, 1877; 1909, 1925,
and in 1910, 1907 subscribers.
Capital Stock.
The capital stock at it's organiza-
ton was $4,000. In 1905 this was
increased to $4,000. 1t was neces-
sary to again increase the capital
stock and the trustees of the COM
pany have recommended that it be
placed at $4,000.
Twenty-six Employees.
At the present time the phone
company has ON it's regular pay roll

ed many weeks ensued Congressman
LOrimer had not been a candidate, but
came forward when it seemed that no
choice had been made. With the as
sistance of Democratic votes he was
elected on joint ballot.
The storm broke when Representa-
tive Charles A. White recently gave a
signed statement to the Chicago Trib-
une charging that Lee O'Neil Browne
at Springfield offered him $1,000 to
cast his vote for Lorimer. Mr.. Browne
Is the Democratic leader of the ILL.,
nois house. White declared that he
accepted the money with the purpose
of showing that corruption existed in
the legislature. but spent it when it
was given him in three lots of $50
each and one of $3.50. He declared that
later in ST. Louis Wilson gave him
5000 as his share of the Jack pot" or
general corruption fund.
Then Representative Beckemeyer

/. H. ATKINSON
IS A CANDIDATE
FOR REELECTION
JUSTICE OF THE
PEACE Is 4 SURE
WINNER.

Judge H. H. Atkinson, incumbent
in the justice of the peace office for
the Tonopah township, is again a
on the republican ticket
and so far without opposition.
Judge Atkinson, during his past
term, gained quite a reputation in
administering justice, for he plain
ly demonstrated that he was fear
less in the execution of his duty,
and rendered his decisions accord
ing to the best of his opinion. He
is one of the youngest republicans
in Office in this county, and his
experience of the last two years
well qualities him for another term
in Office He is universally popu-
lar among his friends and acquain-
tances to such an extent that many
desired that he run this year for a
county Office. AS his nomination
is COHc0u6u, HIS 6ltCllOH Will Ouis
be a matter of form, for he is one
of the strongest republicans in the
town. He has always taken an
active interest in politics and is
always to the fore in aiding any
movement that will prove ben"ilciu
to the party.
Judge Atkinson also has the dis
tinction of being the first rerub
| lican sheriff of Nye county for mann
years. His term was only for two
weeks, however, when he filled the
office owing to the failure of former
Sheriff Owens to secure bondsmen
and until the commissioners had
appointed his successor. This adj
ed to his laurels, and the capable
manner in which he looked out foi
the duties of the Office. showed thai
he was en- the job proper.
