The Thief Coming

The return of May Roberts and hel
company to Leavenworth on Sunday
night, November 6, will be pleasure
and all for the fact that May Roberts is
undoubtedly the very best actress that
has ever visited Leavenworth. She also
has such excellent support that il
makes it really worth while to turn out
and see the May Roberts company
whenever the opportunity presents.
The return engagement, The Thief,
which she will produce Sunday night,
has the unique record of being the
most celebrated play on the stage
today, being based upon the most dra-
matte situations and blended with COM
edy that reaches everybody's idea OF
real downright relaxation.
1t is appropos to state The Thief"
is one Of the most expensive plays to
produce, being a very high royalty bill,
and it is not likely there will be another
this season to see this play
in Leavenworth.

II elected, as l am confident I will
be next Tuesday, will be under obi
cations to the people of Chelan county,
and pledge myself to conduct the
affairs of the Office with as little ex-
pense to the taxpayers as efficiency
and strict attention to duty will permit.
In the redemption of outstanding
county warrants it will be my policy to
redeem them just as rapidly as the ac-
emulation of funds will permit, to the
end that the taxpayers will be saved
the difference between two and eight
per cent in interest. In other words.
the outstanding warrants draw eight
per cent interest, while the countv's
daily bank balance pays only two per
cent.
l have been citizen of Chelan
county for over six years, my record as
prudent painstaking business man is
well known. have had wide expe-
rlence in office work such as will fall to
the lot of the treasurer of Chelan
county, l am encouraged to believe bv
the handsome Endorsement received at
the primary election in September
that the republican voters Of Chelan
county will give me their support at
the general election on the 9th day of
November, for which shall be verv
grateful, and endeavor to merit their
confidence by discharging the duties
fairly, faithfully and economically.
Very respectfully,

The Wenatchee Republic seems to
be considerably exercised about the
amount Of funds the republican county
central committee will be able to raise
among the candidates. So far as this
paper is informed no one else seems to
care flip whether or not there is any
campaign fund at all. This paper has
always supported the republican ticket
in the past, and never set any price on
its support (perhaps it wasn't worth
much which is more than some other
Chelan county newspapers of which we
wot can say. If the Republic is curl
Gus on this point, it is respectfully re-
feued to Hon. John A. Gellatly and
DR.. Shore, who have been at the head
of the republican county committee for
the past four years. This paper half
suspects the Republics great interest
in the matter grows out of its necessi-
ties. 1t would like to earn something
by supporting somebody or something
for something. It would not make
much difference what it is or what it is
for, so there is something in it. Ia,
ia. Over the river. See you later.

David N. Gellatly, republican nom
inee for county auditor, spent several
days here this week. The Echo knows
of no reason why Mr.. Gellatly should
not poll the full strength of the repub-
lican vote at this box. He is fully
qualified to fill the position, having
served as deputy in the office for a
considerable length Of time several
years ago. That he enjoys the conf
dence OF the community in which he
has lived since coming to the county
we have only to mention that he
served for three years as secretary of the
Wenatchee Commercial Club, and was
entrusted with the Chelan county exhi-
bit at the first national apple show,
when Wenatchee apples took nearly
all the principal prizes offered, and the
year following was the Chelan county
commissioner at the A.-Y.-P. exposi-
ton, and had charge of the county ex-
hibit during the greater portion Of the
exposition period. Mr.. Gellatly is the
best type of the self-reliant, progressive
and never-give-up citizens that have
done so much to make Wenatchee val
ley famous.

The Masquerade Bal

The masquerade ball given at the
Firemen's hall by the Social Club Hal
oween was complete success. A large
crowd of masqueraders was present and
the music was fine. There were several
interesting and original characters in
evidence.
The prizes were awarded to Mrs. Joe
Peltier and Charley Nichols. Mrs.
Peltier's costume was that Of an Indian
maiden, which was very good. Mr..
Nichols was attired as a negro, and
made quite hit. The judges were J..
c. Davis, Harry Geerd and Tom Grant.
A neat sum was realized by the club
after expenses were paid.

Should Rebuke the Method, Not The Men

In opposing the election Of the five
men who were nominated at Tacoma
for justices OF the supreme court OIL
Washington, the efforts Of this paper
are directed, not so much against the
men who were nominated, as against
the method by which they were nomin-
ated. We believe in rule by majority,
and under our government rule by ma
jority can only prevail when nomina-
tons for Office are made by the same
method.
Convention methods are bad enough,
as every one knows; but when even
they are abandoned for something inf
nitely worse, it is time for republicans
who revere the name and traditions of
the party, for those who want to per-
petuate its good name and fame, to
rise in their might and crush those who
would bring certain ruin on the party
by turning it over to boss-controlled
interests. This was exactly what the
enemies of the republican party in
their desperation did when they re-
sorted to manipulating the delegates
to make the convention which was to
nominate the republican candidates for
judges Of the supreme court.
The very judges who were afterwards
nominated, according to the testimony
OF Governor Hay, protested against the
method of selecting the delegates,
knowing them to be illegal, as we'll as
against the traditions and customs, and
yet with a shameless disregard for both
the law and the prophecies few COM
mitteemen selected hundreds of dele

ChELAN COUNTY GOVERNMENT
Money Paid in on Tax Account-Bonds Re-
deemed Assessed Valuation


Chelan county collected in taxes last
year S438, o20.47, and the cost Of
maintaining the treasurer's Office was
S3,700.33, according to figures COM
piled by the State Bureau of Inspec-
spection. The bureau has figured the
cost of making the collection was 84.5
cents per 800. The cost of making
the collections in the different counties
varies from So cents in Walla Walla
county to S3.2S in Island county. Some
Of the smaller counties have to meet
fixed expenses, the same as the larger
ones, while their incomes are not so
large, and for this reason a comparison
is hardly fair.
According to report Of State Treas
urer Lewis, Chelan county paid the
sum of $3,701.29 into the state mill
tary fund for the biennial period ending
September 80, 1910. The amount
paid during the same period for interest
on state general fund bonds was So
492.67. The city Of Cashmere paid
the sum Of 5000 interest on county
bonds, while the city Of Chelan paid
$500. Out Of S1,046,00 highway
fund collected by the state treasurer,
Chelan county paid $13,576.06 as its
share OF maintaining and building state
roads.
According to the report of the state
treasurer, thirteen counties OF the state
paid $2O,o86 for current school fines
during the period ending September
80, 1910. Chelan county is not on
this list.
According to the report of the state
treasurer, Chelan county redeemed
5000 worth of bonds held by the per-
manent school fund during the past
two years.
A comparative statement covering
the assessed valuation of real property,
exclusive of railroads, since 1891,
issued by the state tax commission,
shows that the figures $692,766,995,
for 1910, are 1889 per cent in excess
Of s276,867,743, for 1891. In truth,
however, the major part of the increase
has been in the last five years, as the
figures for every year subsequent to
1891, up to and including 1905, fell
below those of the irst-named year.
AS the insurance companies operat-
Ing in this state pay half million dol
lars in special taxes to the state, and
because he thinks it violation of the
regulative ethics to compel such COM
panies to themselves pay for state
examinations into their financial condi-
ton, State Insurance Commissioner J.
H. Shively has suggested special ap-
preparation of $4,000 to cover the cost
Of such investigations in the two years
ensuing. The recommendation has
been approved by Governor M. E. Hay,
who will in turn transmit it to the COM
mission appointed to prepare new in
surance laws for submission to the leg
islature.
Only stock companies with a fully
paid-up capital stock of 100000 will
be allowed to do live stock insurance
business in this state if the legislature
takes favorable action or the recon-
mendation of the state insurance COM
missioner, by which he proposes to do
away with mutual live stock insurance
companies. All of the seven compa-
MES of the latter class ever organized
in this state have failed.
