H|ND[EY SAYS Senatorial
CONTEST IS 0NE-S|DED
Says Senator Jones Knows it, Too and is Preparing to
Move From Yakima to Seattle to "Get Under Cover
-Poindexter Will Be Elected and by West Side vot-
ers, Too-Will Garry King County by Big Vote

Everybody in Chelan county knows
Rev. w. j. Hindley, of Spokane. He
has spoken in this city on numerous
occasions and is probably considered
the most popular orator who has
ever been in Wenatchee. Rev. Hind
ley was the Fourth of July orator,
gave the valedictory address at the
high school commencement exer-
cises and last summer gave the
booster address at the formation of
the $4,000 club of the Wenatchee
Commercial club. He is recognized
as one of the most liberal preachers
in the state, is well versed in poll
tics and sports, and is a good fellow
generally. He has just returned to
Spokane after ten days stay ON
the coast, and the following is the
interview which he gave out rela-
tive to the senatorial situation:
In my opinion there is nothing to
this senatorial fight but Poindexter
gone on the west side that Senator
Wesley L. Jones quietly has made
arrangements to move from Yakima
to Seattle as soon as the cruel war
is over, so as to make secure his seat
in the senate. This, at least, is the
assurance l received from two of the
best known lawyers of Seattle, who
even went so far as to name the law
firm with which the senator will cast
his lot after Poindexter is elected"
Mr.. Hindley is by no means rabid
admirer of Poindexter. In fact, he
has perhaps criticized the great pro-
gressive as much as any of the
standpatters, and his present opinion
is not colored in the least degree by
any wish to boost the home candi-
date. 1t is mostly based on the
things which the Wilson men on the
west side concede.
These two lawyers" continued
Hindley, whose names / am not at
liberty to reveal, are personal friends
of John L. Wilson, wore Wilson but
tons and are absolutely Indifferent,
if not hostile, to Poindexter, but
they admit that Poindexter will not
only carry the west side, but will
carry King county, the home of
Judge Burke, John L. Wilson and
Senators Sam Piles, all of whom are
opposed to Poindexter
The worst of it, said one of
these lawyers, that Poindexter, an
east side man and an insurgent, not
only is going to be elected senator.
but is going to be elected by west
side votes. Can you beat it?'
They had no illusion whatever
about Poindexter, and handled him
without gloves-and Poindexter.. by
the way, is mighty unpopular with
lawyers generally, but they were
talking with the lid on and telling
things just as they appeared to them.
The Wilson men / saw had no ideas
whatever. that their man would be
nominated, and these two men did,
not even claim he could carry his own
city.
THE information about Senator
Jones, they declared, is well founded
and probably shows that the Yakima
senator has made up his mind to the
inevitable and is getting under cover.
1t is a matter of common knowledge
that he has completed these arrange
ments and is preparing to reconcile
himself to Poindexter on the east
side"

DO YOU WANT THIS?

I Did 20 never stop to think, Mr.
Patron, of the rural free delivery
+, route, that Senator Bristow has al
ways been against the free delivery
of the mail to farmers? Senator
/ Bristow now favors and has recon-
mended to the postoffice committee
: that rural routes be put on con-
/ tract basis and that delivery Of mail
A., be made only three times week.
| You have received the letters from
In. r. Rees, and heard him in his pub
llic speeches declare that he endorses
everything that Senator Bristow
stands for, and makes no exception in
this case.
Our Farmer Friend, do you want
the carrying Of your mail let out to
irresponsible carriers for the simple
reason that he viii be allowed to
stop and bother you with various
schemes which he will be allowed to
work in connection with mail carry
ing, and can consequently take the
job cheaper than the present car
riers, who are required to attend to
nothing else but the handling Of mail,
and how would it seem to only get
your mail three times a week now
after getting it so long six times
week?
If you are in favor Of this change
vote for r. r. Rees for Congressman
in the Fifth district.
These are facts that you can easily
prove II you are interested.
Think 1t over.

INHERITANCE TAX AND SMALL
ESTATES.

Editor Reflector: Why is 1t
that the man with a small estate,
4 under $4,000 need have any
worry about the Inheritance tax
law? He can give his property
to his wife and she need pay no
' tax. What difference does 1t
make to him?
Navarro, July %. ]. R.
The estate worth less than $4,000
pays no tax. Under the old law
man could give his property to his
wife and that ended It The inheri-
lance tax law provides that every
estate must be .probated to see II
there Is $4,000 worth Of property. A
man may die and leave a little home
worth $1,000 to his wife. She does
not go into probate court to save the
fees. One day she wants to sell the
real estate and asks lawyer or alb
stractor to make an abstract. He
asks how she obtained title and shI
replies that 1t came from her hus-
bands estate, Has 1t paid inherit
lance tax? No, he only left $1,000.
But maybe he also gave you $4,-
500 in personal property and then 1t
should be taxed. The only way you
can clear the title on tbs real estate
is tc go through probate co":t an
give assurance that there was no tax
to pay. The tax commission under
the law demands that this be done.
Probate Judge Anderson says one
estate has already been forced into
, probate court. About 20 estates in
this county in the short time the law
has been In effect will be forced
Thereon the possessors of
the real estate cannot make a
clean abstract. The inheritance tax is
under the law a lien on any
real estate or other property that ran
be found. or course the probate
judgs thinfs 1t a fine thilS Il
crcaEes the fees Of his ofiice IN adj
d'tlon there are the legl publication
fees hId lawyers fees, ~ matter
how small the estate, you cannot
evade It except by deciding away your
estate and giving away your personal
property more than a year before you
die.
Governor Stubs and Mr.. Rees
strongly advocate this law. They
think widows and orphans should
come across with a share Of the es-
tates left them. It is a good thing
for the railroads and the big coFpo-
rations which never die, but mighty
hard on the woman left with fam
fly with small estate for her sup
port, after she has spent her life
working hand in hand with her hus-
band to earn the property they have.
