JUDGE CHASE'S NAME FOR
LEGISLATURE ON BALLOT
Auditor Godfrey Has Secured Legal Advice and Says
That Law Makes No Provision for Withdrawal -
Thos. Bollman of Cashmere Evidently Hypnotized
Judge Chase Into the Belief He Had Been "Jobbed."

fruit inspection is not popular. This
was plainly shown at a mass meet
ing of Wenatchee business men held
in this city two years ago, at the time
Judge Chase wrote his letter, pro-
testing against the action of the
county commissioners seeking to
cripple this service. Judge Chase
was evidently sincere in his position
on the fruit inspection, but he knew
that such ideas would not make him
popular candidate for the legisla-
ture Much as he wanted the office
he considered in his own mind that
he would be defeated should he enter
the race. Evidently Thomas Bollman
hypnotized him. He did not see him
for several days after returning to
Cashmere but Bollman misrepresent-
ed the action of the committee and
made Judge Chase believe that I'M
due measures had been taken to
force him off of the ticket.
If Judge Chase was "jobbed,"
then J. P. Wantz of Monitor was
"jobbed," Fred Stein was 'jobbed,"
J. D. Corselius, one of those who
urged Judge Chase to make the race,
was 'jobbed," and Oscar Pike of
Wenatchee, nephew of the Judge,
who talked with him the morning
he made the statement withdrawing
from the race, was also ''jObbed."
The latter must have 'jobbed" him
self, when he told his uncle that his
stand against fruit inspection would
defeat him, as he had talked with
no one who had taken the matter
up with the Judge, until after the
withdrawal.
County Attorney Kemp gave it as
his opinion yesterday that Judge
Chase's withdrawal barred him from
a place on the ticket. The only way
that he could get back on would have
been to file a new declaration of
candidacy and pay the fee required
by law. This was not done on Sat-
urday. County Auditor Godfrey,
however, has secured other legal ad-
vice and believes that Mr.. Chase is
entitled to be on the ticket How
ever, the matter is not considered
very serious here and the committee
which was instrumental in securing
Judge Chase's withdrawal is just as
if his mind is set in that direction.

beneficial. J. S. Albin, secretary

pany expects to at once clean up
the debris resultant of the fire of
several weeks ago, and it is not
unlikely that the property will be
improved in the near future by
some sort of a structure. 1t is
considered too valuable property
to lie idle. 1t is expected that the
huge steel tanks now standing on
the mill property will be moved
to the Beal mill.

The property of the Beal Mill
ing Company was sold yesterday
to the Centennial Milling COM
pany, the transfer of property to
be made just as soon as the in
voice can be made and the alb
stracts for the property approved.
The consideration is said to be in
the neighborhood of 100000,
100000 for the mill and $4,000
for the stock on hand, land and
other interests. Sam Glasgow,
secretary and treasurer of the
Centennial Milling company, and
L. P. Baumann, assistant general
manager of that company, have
been here for the past several
days. Negotiations have been in
progress for the past week, but
a definite deal was not made until
late last night. The purchase of
the Beal mill by the Centennial
people means that there will be
no rebuilding at the present time
on the site of the burned Wenat-
chez mill. The new company will
take possession at once and will
operate from the new possession.
The Beal Milling company was Or

LAND GRABBING N
OKLAHOMA
Congressional Probe in Ok.
lahoma Bares Graft Sane
toned by Chickasaws.

Sulphur Springs, Okla, Aug. 16.
Attempts to show that the gov
eminent was justified in delaying
the sale of 100000 worth of In
dian lands in Oklahoma, occupied
the congressional committee in the
investigation of the McMurray con-
tracts today. Testimony was given
that it would be impossible for the,
government to sell out the land and
distribute the money among the In
dams as speedily as McMurray PROM
ised
Representative Carter of Oklahoma
was recalled and testified that Vice
President Sherman was very much
interested in the Indian affairs and
had expressed emphatically his dis
approval of 10 per cent fee.
Details of a scheme by which
land grabbers' organized systemat-
ically to- enrich themselves at the
expense of minor Indians were re-
lated at the congressional investiga-
ton into Indian land affairs today.
In one instance it was asserted that
the cost of disposing of the proper
ty of one 1S-year-old Indian was
$2075 more than the property
brought, and the condition which
permitted this and similar deals was
declared to be a disgrace to Okla
homa."
Indian Tells Land Scheme.
Hearing that the scheme prevail
ed generally, Representative Philip
P. Campbell of Kansas, a member of
the investigating committee, had
put ON the stand James Marlborough,
a Chickasaw Indian by intermarri-
age.
do you call this sort of thing
grating or just plain stealing?'
asked Mr.. Campbell after the wit
ness had related the circumstances.
We'll, the people down our way
think it is a scandal that the laws
permit such a thing, and We think
it is time that congress takes notice
of it.
Court Allows Sale.
THE probate court at Durant al
lowed the guardian TO sell for $4,000
a tract of 40 acres of what is
known as allotted land owned by an
1S-year-old child.

CHARGE POSTMASTER WITH
PERNICIOUS ACTIVITY
Democrats Say Pomona Man Is
Working for MCLaChIan

Considerable criticism was heard in
Democratic circles yesterday relative
to reports from Pomona that the post
master of that city is circulating the
nominating petitions of Congressman
McLachlan.
Democrats say that while they re-
gard this as "pernicious activity" "
prohibited by the federal regulations
and civil service rules, it is not so
much to this fact that they object as
it is to the fact that the Pomona post
master is securing many Democratic
signatures to Mr.. McLachlan's petition,
which will confuse the verification
clerks of the district, and can be of no
avail to McLachlan because they will
be thrown out by the county clerk
when checked up with the great regis
ter.
The Pomona postmaster, it is said,
secures these Democratic signatures
from men who are his personal
friends and who sign merely to do
him a favor and who are ignorant of
the provisions of the badly-muddled
direct primary law.
The Pomona postmaster, 1t is said,
is aware that these Democratic sigma
lures are worthless, but it is said that
he is anxious for reappointment and
has secured all the names possible to
Congressman McLachlan's petition in
order to make a showing and curry
favor with the administration.

CANDIDATES WILL
SPEAK At HARBOR
Good Government Organization
Plans Big Rally in the
Sailors Hall
PROMINENT MEN WILL TALK
Whiffen and Stewart to Outline
Their Policy to Voters
of San Pedro
PROMINENT MEN WILL TALK

Tonight, in Sailors hall, at San Ped
ro, the citizens Of the harbor suburb
of Los Angeles will hold one of the
most important political rallies Of the
present campaign, an the last, 1t is
believed, at which Mayor Alexander
will be present to address the citizens
on the issues of the present political
struggle in which is involved several
problems of vital consequence to the
corporations.
The mayor has announced that owing
to his advanced age and the arduous
duties of his office, he will not be able
to attend many more meetings, If in
fact, he attends any at all after the
rally in San Pedro.
Besides the mayor, number or
prominent citizens will be present, to
address this meeting. They are all
well informed as to It's significance to-
ward the harbor development, terminal
rates and highway problems of the
Los Angeles port.
George II. Stewart, who. with Fred
erick ]. Whiffen, is the Good Govern
ment candidate for the city council,
against Barney Healy and Doc
Houghton, stated yesterday that he
was going to the San Pedro meeting
with letters and documents to nail a
number of preposterous falsehoods cir
culated in San Pedro by the emissaries
of the Southern Parific.
TERMINAL RATES
Mr.. Stewart has been accused by
these men of being adverse to the in
terests of San Pedro in the terminal
rate ISSUE" and of having done other
things inimical to the best interests of
the people of the harbor suburb. He
promises to spring one of the biggest
surprises of the campaign on these
villifyers, but will give no intimation
of what it is, although his friends sus-
pect he is going there with a big bun
die of evidence to dispjrove his ira
ducers.
Mayor Alexander, who has shown
deep interest in the San Pedro rally,
and who has been looking forward to
the event as an opportunity for him
to say a great many things weighing
on his mind, but which are only of
Importance to the harbor citizens, says
that he, too, is going to spring some
surprises at this meeting.

and Good Government leaders who will
be present to address the meeting will
be Leslie Hewitt, city attorney Thomas
E. Cibbon, Charles E. Bent and Messrs
Stewart and Whiffen, the Good Govern
ment councilmanic candidates.
1t is probable special cars will be
run this evening, after Z o'clock, as
great many persons have sgnified
their intention of attending the San
Pedro rally from this city. 1t is un-
derstood there will be music and a
rousing, old-fashioned rally, with some
of the best speech making of the cam
paign.
Sailors hall. where the meeting will
be held, is on Sixth street, between
Paos Verde and Beacon streets.
Next Thursday evening a Good Gov
ernment meeting also will be held at
572O Pasadena avenue, the speakers to
