NO REASON FOR MOVE
Entiat Man Says to Hold on to State
Road Up Columbia.

Entiat, Wash, June 22.-Editor
Daily World: Several articles in re-
CARDS to moving State Road No. 10
from the west side to the east side
of the Columbia river between We
natchee and Entiat have appeared in
your paper frequently of late, in
which articles Alex Pitcher and Mr.
Bowlby, chairman of county commits
sioners and state highway commits
sion, respectively, are quoted as be-
ing in favor of moving state road No.
10 to make room for the Great Nor
thern railroad up the west bank of
the Columbia river. Being a prop
erty owner and a resident near En-
that, tributary to state rood No. 10,
permit me to express some Of my
views in regard to moving aforesaid
road. To be brief, will say that l
am opposed to the moving of this
road and cannot see any reason to
justify such move. When We take
a trip over the Great Northern rail-
road through mountains and rough
country we surely get the impression
that to overcome the obstacles in the
way of building a railroad between
Wenatchee and Entiat is a small
matter. For anyone with the abil-
ity and experience that the Great
Northern has it should not be such
a difficult problem to make a road
way around couple of rocky places
in a stretch of twenty miles. 1t
seems to me that the Great Northern
Railroad company is only holding
out for favor from the people that
they themselves would not be will
ing to give. When or where did you
ever see a railroad company that
gave up their right of way to the
wish and will of the people?
/ believe that most of the people
up this way are aware that the Great
Northern Railroad company is not
going to build this road for the fun
of doing something, but for the pro-
fit of such an undertaking, and
if conditions are not such that it will
pay to build, the Great Northern
will postpone such work to later
date. This, however, does not in my
estimation, justify the people in CIV
ing away valuable property, for the
sake of seeing Jim Hills horse up
this way a year or two ahead of
time. 1, for one, would rather wait
and have both the railroad and state
road No. 10 on the west side of the
Columbia river. am, however,
willing to abide by the wish and will
of majority of people in all cases
pertaining to public affairs.

AerO-AutO-HOrSe Race.

St. Paul, Mimi, June 22.-The
Twin City aviation meet, for which
preparations have been going forward
for some time, opened today at the
State Rair grounds, to continue
through the remainder of the week.
The premier event of the program is
to be a race between three speed
champions, representing, as it were.
the past, present and future of rae
ing. The contestants are to be Glenn
H. Curtis, with his new model BIZ
plane, Barney Oldfield, with his
900" Benz, and Minor Heir, the
worlds fastest harness horse since
the retirement of Dan Patch. The
horse is to pace on the half-mile
track, Oldfield on the mile track
and Curtiss in wider circuit over
head.

ing off other railroads in different
parts of the country.
1t would seem, Mr.. Editor, that
certain powers are working Mr..
Bowlby to deprive us of our state
road on the west side and compel us
in travelling a distance of IA miles
to trace twenty-four.
No doubt Douglas county settlers
travel the road on the east side, and
we don't blame them. The railway
wants it on the east side, and are
going to move heaven and earth to
get it there, and perhaps those inter-
ested in the bridge across the Colum-
bia also would like it on the east
side, for a road on the east side
would compel all the up river folks
travelling to Wenatchee to cross the
bridge, hence there would be a great
er incentive to have a free bridge.
and if this proves failure then a
toll must be put upon the bridge and
a road on the east side would mater
tally help it out.
Consistency, thou art a jewell"
The people of the United States are
spending millions in opening up riv-
ers to navigation, in building canals
and roads to head off the exorbitant
rates of railroads, and now it seems
that our state road commissioner
wishes west siders to travel and have
our goods shipped in by rail or not
at all. Help us to be up and doing,
for all north of Wenatchee river and
as far west as Leavenworth are and
should be interested.

a Roll of Honor.

We quite agree with the writer in the
Worlds Work FOR October who contends
that the pension roll Of the United States
should be a roll OF honor, and We be
lieve K such in the main, in spite Of the
fact that pension disbursements are now
the largest since the war. But il can
only be kept a roll Of honor by estoppiug
abuses.
Research into the pension records has
disclosed the information that one year
after the civil war the government was
paying to disabled soldiers, their widows
and orphans. the sum Of Sl5000,0o0. In 1874
the annual pension bill had reached $3l.-
0OO,O0O. and then it began TO decline, so that
in 1873 it had fallen 10 S2S,0o0,0O0. In Janu-
uary. 1879. a law was passed allowing
all pensioners 10 draw pensions IN arrears.
and, thus stimulated, the old soldiers
and the relicts of soldiers hunted up the
records and filed new claims. so that in
the space OF two years the governments
pension bill jumped from S2S.Ol0.0o0 10
SIS. 10000. For the next decade the pay
ment increased, by leaps and bounds.
Up went the figures until In 1889 the sum
required for pensions was SO. 100000 Then
came law which provided that the pow
erty of the applicant had no bearing on
the question as 10 whether he was en-
titled to a pension. and the sum rose TO
suOm0OO. and each year thereafter It
mounted upward, until in 1858 we had 10
pay out no less than $l6l .O00O0
There came a downward turn when
President Cleveland turned his attention
TO the Pension Bureau, and with no new
legislation TO help it the yearly sum
dwindled to $lH.o0O010. Then. in 1906.
/ generous Congress increased the
rates and recognized mere old age as a
disability, and up went the figures again
to Sl56,OO0.000 The figures took another
| jump when Congress decided TO grant
pensions TO the widows of ninety-day
! soldiers, whether the widows were In
need or not. This raised the annual sum
to S165,00O,0O0 It has been decreasing
through natural causes since then, but
this year it is estimated that the bill
will be in the neighborhOod of 1857 900, GOO,
and there are now pending pension bills
which, If passed, will again raise the fig
ures-this time 10 a height never before
/ reached.
No other nation has ever treated its
/ soldiers so generously and justly as this
nation has, and in the main we are
quite sure that we have done right; but
when we contemplate the gigantic sums
that we are yearly paying out, we are
convinced that the people. who pay the
score will hesitate before lending their
/ sanction, or approval 10 any bills that
/ seek to increase the pension payments.

ment was significantly and wisely con-

Woodrow Wilson.

woodrow Wilson to put it briefly. has
New Jersey guessing. The ordinary poll
tician is no match for his wit and humor.
Politicians used TO old-time methods Of
campaigning viii find his terse. epigram-
matte sentences hard TO answer. And
they must be answered, for his arguments
are driven home in such lucid. compact.
and understandable language that the
most elemental mind cannot fail to COM
prehend their significance.
As a stump speaker he has few equals
His success in this line is the more re-
markahle because OF the miscellaneous
character Of his audiences, including, as
they do. all sorts Of people. He rarely
fails 70 set in instant touch with his
hearers. and once this bond Of sympathy
is established his humor tolerance, and
goOd-fellowship are irresistible.
II IS mistake 10 think Of DR.. Wilson
as an amateur in politics. His past work
has naturally fitted him TO be a great
political leader. First a practicing law
yer, later holding the chair of iurispru-
dence and politics for more than a decade
az Princeton, he became in 1902 the adj
illustrative head OF that institution.
Now he is the Democratic candidate for
governor Of the State.
In the much-trodden field Of education.
he followed a line mapped out by himself
He put new life into Old studies by chang
ing the methods Of instruction; that is.
he advocated and secured the adoption Of
the tutorial system at Princeton. The
object OF the tutorial system, as every
one now well knows. is 10 bring the stu
dent and the instructor together in an
Informal way, as if they were fenow-dis-
ciples in the pursuit Of knowledge.
He had no sooner reformed the relation
between the student and the instructor
than he set about changing the relations
of the students with one another. He
found the Princeton student body divided
into small cliques intolerant of one an
other. This conflieted with DR.. Wilson's
idea of what a college and nation should
be- TO w.t. as he has often put tia pure
democracy. Despite powerful opposition.
his views have so far triumphed at
Princeton that to-day its student body
IS among the most democratic OF our In
stltutions
Enough has been said TO show that
Or. Wilson is an originator of new ideas
He is in no sense 10 be deemed a con-
Sentative, unless every man who only
puts into execution mature thought is
10 be considered one. Those who first
advocated the direct primary system in
politics certainly met no sterner opposition
than that which DR.. Wilson encountered
in forcing his tutorial system upon the
Princeton trustees. a system absolutely
without precedent in the colleges of this
country,
Such progressive in education must
necessarily be a progressive in politics

School Fads and Frills.

Patrons of the public schools win give
hearty assent TO the views expressed by
President Cox. OF the board of education
that fads and frills should be kept out
of the school system-and. further. they
viii heartily second his effort TO enforce
these common-sense views. The splendid
teaching corps. too. we are sure, will be
found fully in accord with him.
Washington is proud OF her public
school system. Despite basic defects of
