Picnic at Elk Lake PARK

Yeomen and their friends, men and
women, to the number of 20 drove to
Elk Lake park late Saturday night in
A. M. Davis bus and occupied one
OF Mr.. Pratt's cottages during their
stay. The rain interfered to some ex-
tent with the pleasures of the occasion
but they nevertheless enjoyed them
selves throughout Sunday and re-
turned in the evening. They had
plenty of good things with them to eat
and some of the party added to the
supply by catching number of black
bass, which we're fried to rich brown
turn by Harry Shockley, the chief
cook. The Yeomen expect to hold
another picnic at the park within a
few weeks and will endeavor to select
better weather.

OF ALUMNI
The High School Graduates of Former
Years Meet in Annual Session
at Odd Fellows Hall.
Addresses, Music and Toasts Enter
Into Program and Class of
1910 Rides the Goat.

At Odd Fellows hall on Saturday
evening the annual Princeton high
school alumni banquet was held and
at it's conclusion the graduates of 10
rode the goat and were admitted to
membership. There were so persons
in attendance and the hall decora-
tions, consisting of plants and class
colors, were very prettily arranged.
An excellent program had been pre-
pared for the occasion and was
carried out in the following order:
Piano duet by Ida May Schmidt and
Esther Koenig, recitation by Mae
Marvin, vocal solo by Marguerite
Byers, instrumental duet by Grover
and Chas. Umbehocker, recitation by
Margaret Foltz, vocal solo by
Catharine Nachbar, and piano duet
by Adena Lundquist and Aimee
Woodcock.
The supper was one of the best ever
served upon similar occasion here
the tables were fairly loaded with
good things for the inner man. Ralph
Whitney was the toastmaster and he
presided with the dignity of one who
had long been familiar with such
proceedings-he was the cynosure of
all eyes, that is, ladies eyes.
OF course the initiatory ceremonies
constituted the most amusing feature
of the proceedings, but the candidates
went through the ordeal without
wincing although some of them-the
boys-were compelled to sit on pin
points and turn handsprings back
wards. Goats and other things were
also brought into requisition for
testing the endurance of the candi-
dates and the initiation throughout
was as interesting as circus.

A Trip to the Lake.

Mr.. and Mrs. E. E. Whitney ard
their son and daughter, Leon and
Edna, were driven to Mile Laos lake
by Frank Goulding in his automobile
on Sunday. They enjoyed steamer
excursion-in the rain-from Wahkon
to Wigwam bay and return and not
one of them suffered from mal-de-mer
although Ed. found it necessary to
take few dyspepsia tablets. It was
as dark as pitch when they drove
home at night, and the rain had
played havoc with portions of the
road, but Frank tore down the pike
as though he we're running over a
macadamized stretch. No accidents.

The Baldwin Road,

The work of spreading rock on the
Baldwin road is progressing rapidly.
Thirteen cars of crushed granite
arrived during the week and the con-
tractors-Thos. Looney, jr., and I. F.
Wallace-are experimenting and
assisting in the work of road making.
Their contract calls for 600 yards of
road, the rock, in three sizes and as
many layers, to, be IA inches deep.
This ought to make a substantial
road. Seven teams were engaged in
hauling the granite yesterday.

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER

WE believe it to be to the best
interests of the people at large and
all concerned that that section OF
the constitution relative to the Inn
itation of office holding-limiting
the time to two terms, should be
repealed. 1t often happens that an
official only gets to that point
where he can render the county the
best service, when he must step
down and out. In some of the old
err states some county officials are
elected and reelected for period
of twenty years or longer, with no
detriment to the county, but in
stead, a positive help. The con-
slant change in Office means the
breaking in every four years-u us
uallv four, sometimes two years
of a new, raw recruit, who must
take weeks and even months, to
acouaint himself with the duties
of the office and all this time he
must work at a great disadvantage
both to himself and the county.
We trust the legislature will take
I'D this matter at the coming SEES
sion and arrange to submit the
change to the people at the cleo
ton in 1912.

today with a double standard in
reference to any great question of
right and wrong.
ELLENSBURG CONSIDERED
Today Our municipality is prac-
tiCinG double standard of morals.
Prostitution is right on the south
side of Third street and wrong on
the north side.
A woman becomes a criminal in
the act of prostitution, while her
accomplice may remain among the
Four Hundred. -
A house of prostitution and other
organizations may sell liquor with
out license but a saloon keeper
must pay 81 500.
A common criminal must be fin
ed in increasing amounts for repeat
ed offenses, but a vagrant prosti-
tute may repeat the same offcnse
month in and month out with only
a stipulated hne(?) once a month.
Today civilization has a mighty
army of $50, 900 who are blind from
the awful consequences of venereal
disease. and that disease is regard
ed as Joke on the streets of our
city. Fathers boast of the wisdom
of letting the boys enter into neces-
sary o. sin that they may be the
wiser. Why should not the same
thing be true of the daughters

the truth be known, and for your
sakes, young ladies, l must say on
good authority, that you stand one
chance in two of having your life
wrecked in that life that ought to
be to you the nearer door to the
joys of Heaven itself On such
great and grave questions our mu-
nicipality will never be at peace un-
til we have the single standard of

new LIEN LAW
BEING DRAFTED

The new lien law, drafted in the
interests of the man who builds,
with full protection to the laborer
and mechanic and without preju-
dice against the contractor, subcon-
tractor or material man, seems like
ly to meet with some opposition in
the legislature. Under the exist
ing law, as many of the state news
papers have pointed out, the owner
of the building has little to say in
the matter after he lets his contract.
The opportunity for extra charges
is wide open, and any man on the
job can receipt for any quantity of
materials. So long as the materials
are delivered, they are a charge a
gainst the property and the mater
ial man has a lien Naturally e.
nough certain materials producers
are quite willing the present law
should be maintained; but some
are inclined to go little bit farther.
1t is said an amendment to the
present law will be asked which
will do away with the last chance
of the owner by making it unnec-
essary to give him duplicate in
voice after materials have been de-
livered. Almost every community
in the state offers some instances
in which owners have been COM
PEELED to pay far more than the
contract price for their building,
and it is the general sentiment that
an entirely new law, protecting the
owner as we'll as everybody else, is
necessity.

and did not believe that any would
be seriously considered at the COM
