Lead for Governor.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 17.-Returns
from outside counties indicate that
the race between Dahlman and Shall
lenberger for the democratic nomi-
nation for governor is very close.
While Dahlman has carried this
(Douglas) county three to one, re-
turns from the outside give Shallen-
berger a small lead Both sides are
claiming victory.
Cady for the republican nominal
ton for governor has a good lead
over Aldrich, while Senator Burkett
seems to have secured a renomin-
alton by a good majority over Whe-
don.
For the democratic senatorial
nomination, Congressman Hitchcock
leads Metcalfe, editor for Bryan's
paper, more than two to one in the
returns so far received.
For congressman in the second
district, Sutton, republican, and Lo-
beck, democrat, have been nomin-

EAGLE LIVERY
Becomes Sole Owner by
Purchasing Interest of
D. G. Town.

The firm of Town & Ogilvie was
dissolved yesterday, when Chas.
Ogilvie purchased the interest of his
partner, D. c. Town, joint owners
of the Eagle Livery.
Mr.. Town has numerous outside
interests to which he desires to de-
vote his attention, especially several
ranch properties. Mr. Ogilvie ac-
quires sole ownership of the livery
business and will devote his entire
time to its management.
When asked by the World repor-
ter whether he contemplated any
changes of policy, Mr.. Ogilvie replied
that he intends to add many fine
horses and rigs to his stock. He be-
lieves that nothing is too good for
the people of Wenatchee. If a pat
ron wants an exceptionally fine driv-
ing horse or particularly swell turn
out, it is proposed to be prepared to
supply that kind of request.
The Eagle Livery has always been
a very obliging concern to it's pat
rons and Mr.. Ogilyie believes that
the way to build up business is to
give the very best of service.

MORE SUPPLIES
FOR GRADERS
Two Carloads of Equipment
Arrive for Construc-
ton Work.

Two carloads of scrapers and
graders supplies have been received
in the local yard and these will be
shipped up the river. 1t has been
rumored that these were to be dis
embarked along the river between
Wenatchee and Pateros, giving the
idea that it is the intention of the
Great Northern to start immediate
construction.
The C. & o. company, however,
state that no instructions to that end
had been given. The company has
received no instructions as to where
these supplies were to be disem-
barked, but it is thought that it is
for the work between Pateros and
Brewster. What construction work
has been done between Pateros and
Brewster has been close to Brew
ster, but it is now thought that Con-
tractor Adams will start at once on
the Pateros end of the contract.

PARIS To ENGLAND
BY AER0PLANE
Frenchman Made Success
full Flight-Cold Trip
Across Channel.

Deal, England, Aug. 17.-With
every prospect of success in complet-
ing the aerial trip from Paris to Lon
don in competition for the cup of
fered by London newspapers and for
the proceeds of subscription raised
by Graham E. White, which the Eng
lish aviator generously raised after
his defeat in the London-Mancheste
contest, Moissant, the young Spanish
aviator descended near here today,
having accomplished the flight from
Paris to Calais and the journey
across the channel to Deal with ease.
He is now preparing to continue the
trip to London, which he was forced
to interrupt because of having been
numbed by cold during the trip
across the channel:
Hurbert Latham, who started from
Issy, a suburb of Paris, to race Mois-
SAINT to London, had a series of acct
dents eliminating in wrecking his
machine at Amiens.
The last stage of Moissant's trip
across the channel was accomplished
in a strong breeze, the wind being sc
high that experienced aviators looked
on the start as foolish. He launched
his aeroplane from the cliffs near Ca
llais at 1914 this morning and head
ed for the English shore. The BIZ
plane pitched and rolled so danger.
ously that spectators believed it was
in imminent danger, but, though one
of the youngest aviators, Moissant
managed his machine with the great
est skill. He expected to land al
Dover but was driven a few miles
north by the wind and made the
coast near Deal at 1l:15 a. M, land
ing at Tilmanstone. a short distance
from here. The trip from Calais tC
ITilmanstone occupied approximately
81 minutes.

SHIPPED ia CARS
IN 10 DAYS
Freight Business for First
Half of August 112 Per
Cent Ahead of Record

The year 1908 was the banner
season for large shipments from this
valley. During the first fifteen days
of August, 1908, so cars were sent
from Wenatchee by freight loaded
with fruit. For the corresponding
period this month, ia cars have
gone out. This is an increase of e.,
in other words, 121 per cent. 1t is
just twice the 1908 record plus 10
cars. And the heavy run has not yet
begun.
These figures invite speculation
upon the probable total shipments
for the current year. In 1908 there
was a grand total of 1859 cars bill
ed out by freight. If the present
rate of increase holds, Wenatchee
will make a record shipment of 5000
cars this season. So
There is no reason to believe that
the percentage of increase for the
first fifteen days of August will not
hold for the balance of the shipping
season. 1t is we'll known fact that
the planting of soft fruits has been
discouraged in this vicinity. The
ideal crop for Wenatchee is winter
apples. Probably no rancher plants
peaches and apricots in preference
to apples for any other reason than
that the return is quicker. But he
is loser in the end. Consequently,
as men of more means enter the val
ley, the tendency is to plant apples
exclusively. 1t is also established
now that peaches are not good fill
ers to have in an apple orchard.
And that fact has a deterrent effect
also upon setting out the deciduous
fruit. 1t is safe to say that fully
ten per cent less summer fruits are
being planted each year.

PHOTOGRAPHS
F. III. kiser to be Here Next Month
to Take Fruit Scenes.

F. H. Kiser, Great Northern pho
tographer, who was here during the
blooming season in the valley and
whose photographs are now on ex-
hibition at the Commercial Club, has
written Agent Piper as to the best
time to come into the valley to get
pictures, showing the heavily laden
trees, the picking and the packing.
Mr.. Piper advised him that he would
get the best results about the Goth
of September, as the apples will be
larger at that time and of course
will be better colored.
Mr. Piper asks that growers hav-
ing extraordinary specimens should
notify him so that pictures might be
taken on the arrival of Mr.. Kiser.
