mental program to determine the
adaptability of this section to the
growth Of hardwood trees, as well as
conifers. The ranger station just north
of town will be the scene Of the expert
mentation. Seed of the oak, hickory,
walnut and other varieties OF hardwood
will be planted. From the govern
ment nurseries in the Snoqualmie for
est young trees Of the hardwood variety
have been secured and will be set out
at the experimental station this year.

WILL MEET IN WENATCHEE
Washington State Press Association VIII
Hold Next Annual Meeting in
Menatchee

1t has been definitely decided to
hold the 1910 meeting Of the Wash
ington editors in Wenatchee. The
time Of the meeting has not been fully
determined on but will be some time
about the middle of June. One of the
diversions which the people OF Wenat-
chez propose to provide for the visiting
editors, is a trip up the Columbia river
to Chelan, and by boat to the head Of
the lake.
This is the announcement made re-
Gently by P. A. Hazeltine, president
of the association, after the executive
committee had come to decision.
Walla Walla and Anacortes were
also active candidates for the conven-
ton but Wenatchee was chosen be-
cause no previous session of the asso-
citation has been held in that part Of
the state. An excursion on Lake
Chelan is promised the editors by the
people of Wenatchee.

NEW STUMP ExTERMINATOR
New Method of Getting Rid of Stumps
Pronounced a Success

George B. Green, who purchased
the DR.. Triem place in the Chumstick
valley some time ago, had a stump ex-
terminating machine shipped here from
Seattle this week. Not knowing if the
machine had been christened we
simply take the liberty of giving it the
name Of stump exterminator," be-
cause that is just what it does. The
machine was invented and first put on
the market last year.
To give a brief account OF how Mr..
Green became interested in a stump
machine: While living in Seattle the
inventor offered to remove the stumps
from a piece Of land in that vicinity at
one dollar per stump. Now stumps on
the west side OF the mountains are from
three to eight feet in diameter, and to
remove some of the largest in the old
way requires the work Of two men for a
week, so Mr.. Green was not long in
closing a deal. In four or five days

"Uncle Rube," by the Peshastin Club


The play by the above name, pre-
scented to a good-sized audience on
Monday night in the opera house, re-
hected credit on the Peshastin Anna
teur Dramatic club. The play was
gotten up and presented as benefit
for the Peshastin Commercial club,
which, by the way, incurred consider
able expense recently in an effort to
secure the location of the east and
west state road by way Of Peshastin.
The same program was presented on
Friday night in Cashmere and again on
Saturday night in Peshastn, each time
with decided success. The young
ladies and gentlemen who took part in
the play not only acquitted themselves
creditably, but have earned the graft
tude of the commercial club for the
substantial contribution to the clubs
finances. The performance was fully
up to amateur work and surpassed some
that is palmed off on the public fol
professional.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1910-04-22

every vestige Of stump was removed
from an eleven-acre tract.
The determination is accomplished
with a gasoline blast, and half dozen
or more stumps can be operated on at
the same time. A one and half
horse power gasoline engine mounted
on what is called stone boat furnishes
the power, and gasoline reduced to
gas does the work. A hole is made in
the stump somewhat below the surface
of the ground by boring into it, or, if
preferred, digging under some Of the
roots; then direct a lighted jet Of gaso-
line on the stump thru piece Of hose
and the stump will shortly be reduced
to ashes. The process is said to be
successful, comparatively inexpensive,
and rapid.
The method most employed around
here is to first blow the stump with a
charge Of dynamite and then set it on
fire, but this method is not so rapid
and is more expensive than the gaso-
line blast method. From the gasoline
tank hose radiate in every direction, so
that the incineration of eight or ten
stumps may be going on at the same
time. The stumps not being so large
on the east side OF the mountains can
undoubtedly be removed more rapidly
and cheaper than on the west side.
If you are interested in the matter
go up to the Triem place and see the
machine work. Mr.. Green has faith in
it because he has seen it tried out

WORK ON THE CHELAN CONSOLIDATED
A Full Crew of Men Will be Employed as
Soon as They Can be Procured

Harry Krollpfeiffer, resident manager
of the Chelan Consolidated Mining Co.,
returned from Red Mountain this week
in company with Mr.. Buckingham.
Mr.. Krollpfeiffer says Mr.. Buckingham
is now out looking for crew OF twelve
miners who, as soon as they can be Sc
cured, will be put to work in the Che
Ian tunnel. The intention is to get to
work as early as possible and push de-
velopment with all possible vigor from
now on. The water supply will be
abundant for operating the compressor.

A Scarcity of labOring Men

More men! That is the cry in this
vicinity, and seems to be general all
over this northwest country. The big
saw mill at this place usually employs
some ESQ men when all its depart
ments are in full operation. Manager
Mackay, we are told, says he is short
of a full complement, at least fifty
men. One orchard company in this
vicinity that is setting out fifty acres in
orchard has had an inquiry out for ten
men for the past two weeks. We have
heard of numerous other instances of a
shortage OF men. This condition pre-
walls in the lower Wenatchee valley.
According to newspaper reports a
shortage of men prevails turnout the
entire northwest.
The shortage of help may retard
spring work on the ranches, but will
work no serious injury and is condi-
ton to be preferred to the converse.
An under-supply of help indicates a
healthy rather than unhealthy condition
of affairs. An over-supply usually ag-
gravates conditions during dull or hard
times. With every available man en-
ployed in earning money nothing but
prosperity can follow.

HANDWRITING ON THE WALL
Senators Aidrich and Hale Announce Re-
tirement from Politics

The announcement Of the prospec-
tive retirement of Senator Hale oil
Maine from the senate, following Sc
closely on a similar announcement re-
garding Senator Aldrich of Rhode
Island, seemed to have a stunning
effect on the senate.
That the oldest OF the senators in
point of service should voluntarily de-
eide to retire from that body was
scarcely less Of surprise than that the
recognized leader should have decided
upon a similar step. Most Of the sena-
tors declined to make any comment.
who will be leader Of the senate
now?" was asked of Senator Dolliver.
I suppose the mantle Of the lead
ership will be deposited in the Smith
sonian institute, along with the other
relics" replied the Iowa senator.
Speaker Cannon was asked if the re-
tirement Of Senators Aldrich and Hale
would have any influence on him Oh
other members of the house.
He declared that the senators had
been influenced wholly by considera-
tons of health. Politics, he believed,
did not enter into their determination.
AS for himself, the speaker, after taking
fling at "muck-rakers," declared he
was going to live twenty-five years
longer and have a good time while he
was doing it.
1t is claimed that the real reason fol
Senator Hale's retirement was the re-
publican party faced certain defeat in
Maine if he stood for reelection.

The president appointed Terry L.
Ross to be postmaster of Wenatchee
last Friday. Rufus Woods was recon-
mended by Congressman Poindexter,
but being an insurgent, and the presi-
dent lined up with Cannon and

count against the old machine. The
term Of the present postmaster, Mr..
Hull, expired in March. Mr.. Ross
will take Office as soon as he can
qualify.

The Great Northern plans to protect
its line through the Cascade mountains
with snowsheds built OF concrete. This
will mean the expenditure Of much
money. Snowsheds built of timber are
not only short-lived and insecure, as
experience proved last winter, but are
often set on fire by sparks from engines.
1t is the purpose Of the Great North
ern to put its mountain line beyond
the possibility Of such delays and disas-
tiers as occurred the past winter.

A Lesson From the Recent Elections

Within the last year three vacancies
in the Sixty-frst congress have &C.
cured. The first occurred in demo-
cratic district in Missouri when sue
cessor to DeArmond was elected. The
man to succeed was elected by an in
creased democratic majority. The
second occurred in Massachusetts, a
few weeks ago, in a republican district
that had never gone democratic-a
district that gave the regular republi-
can candidate at the general election
year ago last November majority OF
approximately $4,000. At the special
election three weeks ago, Mr.. Foss, the
democratic candidate, defeated his re
publican opponent, who made the
campaign on a nd-pat-Cannon-Ald-
rich platform, by more than 5000 votes.
On Tuesday of this week occurred
the third special election of congress
man. The election occurred in a New
York district in which the city Of
Rochester is located. This district had
elected republican congressman for over
twenty years. Aldridge, the republican
candidate, was defeated by 5000 ma
jority. He was a stand-pat republican,
and in the campaign was asked the
pointed question by arepublican voter,
DO you stand for the Cannon-Aldrich
policy?" Mr.. Aldridge simply de-
clined to make an answer to the ques-
ton, and the republican voter, with
some six thousand others, understood
that to mean that he was opposed to
the progressive policy advocated by the
insurgents and the Roosevelt policy OF
conservation, and voted for the demon
cratic candidate.
From these facts and circumstances
our democratic brethren are inclined to
draw much comfort. All the demo-
cratic warehouses, including the mules,
predict democratic success at the polls
this fall. If we knew the personnel Of
the republican nominees who will 60
before the people this fall, and could
read the declaration Of principles on
which they will ask for support, we
might be able to agree with both the
horses and mules in the democratic
ranks.
An unqualified endorsement Of His
Weakness, the president, and failure
to condemn the Cannon-Aldrich tariff
measure by the republicans of the state
of Washington, as in every other state,
will go far in helping to realize demo-
cratic hopes. Doubtless, too, this is
exactly what will happen in some states
where republican bosses with more zeal
than judgment are in control OF the
party machinery.
A very large number of republican
voters have reached the sane conclu-
sion that the tariff and the trusts is,
more than any other cause, responsible
for the increased cost of living, as well
as for the constantly widening gap be-
tween the very rich, who constitute less
than five per cent of the population,
and the balance of mankind, who con-
stitute the other ninety-fve per cent.
They have also reached the further
conclusion that the party that refuses to
pass laws to curb the tariff barons and
the malefactors OF great wealth, to use
a Roosevelt expression, is wrong, and
they will not support it by their votes.
This is the lesson we draw from the re-
cent congressional elections.

Pity the Umpire

IT would rather trim a hundred hats
than to settle one dispute between pu-
pills." said the milliner. Those clashes
are frequent. and when they reach a
critical stage the pupil seeks corrobora-
ton in the opinion of a professional
trimmer.
Usually she has my sympathy. The
teachers ideas are safe and sane, but
there are lots OF girls who need some
thing besides safety and sanity in a hat
to make 1t becoming.
Yesterday l was asked to pass an
opinion on hat that teacher had in
sisted upon 15-year-oid girl making for
herself The hat was shaped and trim
med in excellent taste, but 1t made the
girl look like a fright.
'She had ideas and eyes of her own.
She had suggested bending the brim in
one place, launching up the trimming in
another place, and pinning the bow on at
toed all those suggestions on the ground
that they were bad art and would break
the classical outline. So they did, but
what the girl needed was dash and go,
not classic simplicity.
1T must be easier to umpire a ball
game than to settle question of hats
II / decide against the girls I outrage
my own artistic conscience and lose the
trade Of her family, and If l go against
the teacher l am execrated by her and
all her friends"
