NO CONSTITUTIONAL
RIGHTS ARE INVOLVED
L. NJ. Hull in an Article to the Daily
World Takes DR.. King to Task for
Recent Interview Regarding the We
natchee Postoffice Appointment

his political experience made fire.
neither violated the letter or spirit of
the constitution. Now then with this
preponderating strength in favor OF
Mr.. Ross, it was plainly the duty of
Mr. Poindexter to carry out the wishes
of the people. In making his campaign
two years ago, he specifically stated
that in all things he should be for the
people, and with continual flourish
of trumpets he still maintains this at
titude. Why then in the matter of the
Wenatchee postofice did he not re-
member and make good those solemn
pledges? Had DR.. King, who is a
man of scrupulous honor, been in Mr..
Poindexter's place he would have I'M
hesitatingly recommended Mr.. Ross.
Why then should he criticize the ma
tional administration which has not
violated any pledges in appointing a
local postmaster and defend man
who f1agrantly violated his pre-elec-
ton promises, in refusing to comply
with the earnest wish of great ma
jority of the Wenatchee people?
Had Mr.. PoindeXter made good his
platform pledges in treating this mat
ter, and carried out the wishes of the
people, his recommendation would
have received department approval
and Dr. King would not have had oc-
casion to feel that a constitutional
privilege had been denied or that
Uncle" Joe Cannon had exerted I'M
due influence. So far as this goes
Mr. Cannon in his palmiest days of so
called iron rule, never so ruthlessly
trampled upon the rights of his con-
stituents as did Mr. Poindexter in the
Wenatchee postoffice controversy.
Very truly yours,
L. NJ. HULL.

MANSFIELD WANTS MUCH THAT

One OF the results of the Mansfield

What other demands there might

F. S. Jennings, of the Mansfield
pharmacy, arrived last night to look
into the supply situation here. He
arranged with the Wenatchee Can

other company for ice cream. At pre-
sent the express rate on ice is a little
high but Mr.. Piper will undertake
to get a reduction made.
Mr.. Jennings states that there is
no laundry there and that it is very
difficult to get washing done by pri-
vate parties. There is not even a
laundry agency there although the de-
mand is good. Apples are as much of
a delicacy in Mansfield as ice cream
is In that land of wheat some fruit
would be greatly appreciated. But not

sure that apples would sell well there
if the price was satisfactory.
Dentist Wanted.
Travelling dentists reap a rich har-
vest in the prairie city. There seems
to be a fine opening for a dentist
there, and the citizens would. much
prefer to have a regular dentist who
would not take away the money.

to Mr. Jennings. But there is de-

Editor Daily World:

Editor Daily World:
Referring to an interview of DIR.
King in recent issue of the World.
wherein he criticizes the national ad-
ministration for the manner in which
the recent appointment of Terry L.
Ross was made, / beg to quote there
from as follows:
"Mr. Poindexter must either fall in
to line and support the old regime
and all that Cannon-Aldrich machine
stands for or he shall be denied the
constitutional privilege of debating
the patronage in his own district"
Now, Mr.. Editor, was not aware
, that the constitution provides that a
congressman shall dictate patronage.
If, however, the president has violat-
ed the constitution, impeachment pro
ceedings may be filed against him.
But plain reading of that revered
instrument of the constitutional faith
ers, reveals the fact that the right of
petition shall not be denied a people.
In the Wenatchee postoffice matter
it is a positive fact that ninety per-
cent Of the business men and other
patrons of the postoffice petitioned
for the appointment of Mr.. Ross. Mr..
POindexter denied the people their re-
quest, and incensed at the unjust
treatment accorded them by Mr.. Poin-
dexter they took their case to the
postmaster general and President
Taft with satisfactory results.
In addition to the support mention
ed above for Mr.. Ross he had the al
most unanimous endorsement of the
Chelan County central committee. 1t
is not known that Mr.. Woods had any
support of this kind. Now DR.. King
is politician enough to know that this
is one of the functions of a party or
ganization, and no doubt he has in

Leaves for California.

Charles Phipps and family leave
for California today. Mr.. Phipps
has been in Wenatchee for a few
months expecting to. fill a position
with the electric railway people.
With the abandonment of the rail-
way plans he resumed his old place
with the Pacific Building and Loan
association and is going to Califor-
mia in. the interests of that concern.
Mr.. Phipps leaves several substantial
reminders of his stay in this city.
The big laundry building with the
largest chimney this side of Everett,
is one of the monuments that he is
leaving.

Despite the fact that Robert Stra-
horn, of the North Coast railway, has
made the statement that there would
be no building up the Columbia
river this season, North Coast sur
veyors are again in the field. A
week ago today a party landed at
Malaga and have gradually worked
up the river and are now somewhere
below Orondo.
The statement has been made in
this city that the party working be-
low Orondo was the Great Northern
surveyors, but as far as can be learn
ed this is an error and it is thought
that there is no question about the
identity of the surveying party.
There seems to be no question of
the desire of the Great Northern to
build up the river this year, but Ma
jor Anderson, the right of way man.

Bile assisting at Waterville, and R. M.

floors, two stories and basement, 60

cavation is already made and needs
only some slight "squaring up" to be
ready for the construction work.
The windows facing on both streets
are to be large plate glass affairs
giving the Metropolitan Garage met
ropolitan appearance. Besides the
regular stock of autos a large stock
of automobile supplies will be carried.

SO[V|NGTHEWATER
PROBLEM
POWER IRRIGATION INCREASING
AT RATE OF ONE PUMP A DAY
MEETS HIGH WATER PROF.
LEM WITH SUBMERGED PUMP.

Pumping problems are paramount
in the minds of the apple growers.
With the advent of the economical
power pumps that successfully COM
pete with the costly old gravity sys
TENS, new era is appearing to the
orchardists. The many reasons for
the superiority of the power pump
are proved by the sales of local
agents. There are several in the
field, some with offices in Wenatcheo
and some who come from other cities
to work this territory. From talking
with them the World representative
concluded that average sales of a
pump a day are being made at the
present time, although that average
is not likely to be maintained
throughout the year.
e. Wagner Tries Power.
Another large pump was bought
today by E. Wagner, one of the best
known apple growers in the country.
Not many years ago, before power
pumping was seriously considered,
Mr.. Wagner took barren looking
place on the Columbia below Entiat.
He built rickety wooden flume that
fairly chung to cliffs in places. With
that he made start and later built
better ditch and flume Now he
gets into line with the rest of the
progressives and installs an enor-
nous pump to handle his big apple
tract.
One Styple of Pump
Mr.. Wagner's pump is run by a
thirty horse power electric motor.
The pump is mounted in an all steel
frame 80 feet high, with a cast iron
base on the top. The motor rests
on the base and is direct-connected
by means of a patent coupling. The
outfit is enclosed in a dug we'll and
the pump runs submerged during
high water It's efficiency compares
with other pumps of the best makes,
and when it is running under water
it uses all the advantage of the wa
ters height. It's capacity is $50 gal

are demanded, and while this case
was in no way connected with that.
It is believed the decision of the SUI
preme court will have an effect on
it, indirectly, at least.
That it will affect the litigation
against the Hines Lumber company,
is the opinion of many attorneys, be-
cause it will be necessary to have GER
tain records of that corporation in
court to prove violation of the law.
1t will be necessary, at least, to pro-
duce the vouchers showing to whom
the money was paid and the amount,
and if the company is forced to pro-
duce these, it will be immune to pun
ishment.
Attorney General Hudson stated that
he thought the decision would have
some bearing on all antitrust litiga-
ton in this state, whether already on
the dockets or to be placed there; and
since it is all but impossible to con-
vict, except where the corporation is
compelled to produce its books and
records, the litigation will be useless.
| The decision of the Cumberland
case, based on the law, practically
nullifies the effect of the antitrust
law in Mississippi, one of the most
rigorous of any state in the union, and
one under which a number of convic-
lions have been secured and some
heavy penalties collected.

ANTITRUST Law
NOW A DEAD LETTER
Such Seems to be its Fate, Judging
From the Telephone Supreme
Court Decision Monday.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 15.-The de-
cision handed down by the supreme
court Monday, dismissing the case
against the Cumberland Telephone Il
Telegraph Company, appealed from
Lauderdale county, it is believed, will
have more or less effect on all anti
trust litigation in Mississippi, and
may result in some of the cases on the

dropped, is the belief of some attor-
neys who have carefully studied the
situation.
For instance, a conviction could not
