Samuel Hill to Speak.
The meeting at Raymond will
bring together good roads workers
from points as far east as Golden
dale and as far north as Tacoma.
Samuel Hill, father of the good roads
movement in this state, will make a

A Mr.. White, New Hampshire
fruit grower, who was being shown
over the valley the other day by F.
B. Utter and Clark Cox, noticed the
announcements of the Y. M. C.. A.
building canvass, and was so much
interested that he asked for the
privilege of putting SO into the
fund. He was familiar with this
method of raising money, the peo-
pie of his town having recently
passed through similar experience.
The workers in the Y. NJ C. A.
canvass made an early start this
morning. They met at 8 o'clock to
talk over the situation, reassign
names of people to be seen and lay
plans for the last two days work.

THREATENED SEIZURE BY
TRANSPORTATION COMPANY
OF HIGHWAY NO. 10 UP THE
COLUMBIA.

Seattle, May 27.-Great Northern
and state officials may clash over the
occupancy of state road No. 10, north
of Wenatchee, by the railroad engin-
GERS who purpose fixing the route of
the Hill lines extension up the Col
umbia river on the west side of that
stream and on a part of the old state
highway.
The railroads threatened seizure
of the state highway will be dis
cussed in a meeting of southwestern
Washington good roads enthusiasts
at Raymond tomorrow. An earlier
deal that involved the Milwaukee
also will be taken up, and the whole
question of the railroads attitude
toward the states highway bureau
will be discussed.
1t Is claimed by officials of the
state service that the railroad has a
better grade on the east side of the
river and would be able to tap the
vast new wheat country Of Douglas
county by changing its line. AS the
proposed railroad goes the farmers
would be compelled to team across
the Columbia to the new road.
Bluffs Precipitous.
On the west side of the Columbia
the bluffs are precipitous, and it is
almost impossible for the state to
build a new wagon road at a higher
grade. A new wagon route could be
laid out easily on the east side Of
the river, but the highway bureau
objects to building grades for a rail-
road to occupy.
If Great Northern officials are will
ing to build a substitute wagon road
on the east side of the river, turning
it over completed to the state. the
highway bureau will waive it's OBJ
jections and give consent through
silence to the occupancy of the old
state wagon road by the new Hill
| line.
The first work on the road along
the west side of the Columbia was
done % years ago and the state sew
eral years ago, before the organiza-
/ ton of the state highway board,
gave $4,000 toward a fund to put
the highway in good condition
1t is probable the first move will
| be taken by negotiations direct with

of directors of the Great Northern

Location

The Rosalie Orchard Tracts, located less
than five miles from Malaga, is in the very
heart of the best fruit growing district of
the famous Wenatchee Valley, offers one of
the best opportunities to the man with
small means to own an orchard than any
other location we know of today. Soil, eli
mate and shipping facilities can not be i'm
proved upon and the low prices and liberal
terms will, without doubt, sell these tracts
very quickly. So, if you are thinking Of
getting an orchard, see us at once.

N BY THE DEMOCRATS
Defeated Republican Gets on Ticket as
His Name Is Written In,

An odd phase of the primary cleo
ton law developed at Devils Lake
when it was announced by the can
wasting board of the primary returns
that H. M. Creel had been nominated
on the Democratic ticket and his name
will be placed on the ballot next fall.
Creel ran for the nomination on
the Republican ticket, but was de-
feated by the narrow margin of 81
votes. 1t appears on the returns that
Creel's name vas written on a suffi-
cient number of the Democratic bal
lots to entitle him to a place on the
ticket.
1t required few, as the Democrats
had only two men running for the
nomination of representative, and as
a consequence Creel is still in the
race, although he is on the other side
of the fence, SO far as tickets are cor
cerned.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS.

Jack Johnson, the big negro, de.
feated Jim Jeffries in the fifteenth
round of a one sided battle at Reno
New, in the presence of 10000 people.
Jeffries failed to show his old time
snap and dash and he lacked speed
and staying qualities. After the tenth
round it was apparent that Johnson
was getting the better of the contest
and toward the end of the fight he had
everything his own way. While JEFF.
ries landed many blows they lacked
force and had no effect on johnson.
After the twelfth round Jeffries ap-
peared tired and slow, but he contin-
ued to come right up to his opponent
and take all the punishment given him.
The knockout came near the end of
the fifteenth round, after Jeffries had
been floored several times, but man
aged to get to his feet.
Moving pictures of the Johnson-Jef-
fries fight will be prohibited in many
of the larger cities of the country
through fear of the renewal of race
bitterness, as we'll as a possible lower

commends President Taft insofar as
he has been loyal to those policies; de.
clares the new tariff law should be re-

still further notifications are favored
to curb the power of the speaker. The

are declared for.
Theodore Roosevelt made it clear,
not by direct statement, but by impli-
cation so strong that it admits of no
misinterpretation, that he will support
Representative Miles P%oindexter in his
fight for a seat in the United States
senate from the state of Washington.
In endorsing Poindexter Colonel Roose-

has opposed from first to last.

DEFICIT IS MADE GOOD

tion-Accused Official Had Been a
I Heavy Spectator for Years.
Louisville, July 13.-At a directors
meeting Of the Fidelity Trust COM
pany 1t was announced that stock
holders Of the concern, which includes
many of the leading capitalists of the
city, had made up a fund to meet any
loss or losses that have, or will, come
to the company by reason Of Cashier
Ropke's ~defalcations, up to 81, 100000.
This would seem to indicate that
the exact amount of Ropke's defalca-
lions, which are thus made good, will
never be known, although rumors
place it anywhere from 100000 to
100000.
President Barr, in a statement, says
expert accountants have examined
every security held by the company,
whether owned by estates or by the
company. and they find all in per-
feet condition. The statement con-.
tinues:
"The depositors have and will fare
equally well and the loss through
Ropke's defalcation, although it may
be quite large, will fall on the stock
holders alone"
Ropke, who spent the night in Jail,
was arraigned in court. He appeared
without counsel, waived examination
and was held to the criminal court for
trial Oct. 5. His bond of $25, 900 was
continued and he was returned to
Jail.
Since his arrest it has come to light
that Ropke's speculation on the New
York Stock Exchange and in local
brokerage houses, and in the bucket
shops amounted to hundreds of thou
sands of dollars annually. His oper-
kations were so carefully concealed,
however, that only a small part of
them were generally known.
It was currently reported among
brokers that he won over 5000, 900 last
year, but that. he lost heavily this
year.
