Difference Between Them.

John L. Wilson is the publisher of
a newspaper and a candidate for the
United States senate. Miles Foin-
dexter, who is also a candidate for
the senate, has no personal organ.
John l.. Wilson uses his newspaper
to exploit himself and to berate Mr..
Poindexter Those who read the
P.-I. daily see Poindexter belied and
Wilson extolled. The people. how
ever, who are more or less familiar
with the careers of both men, have
confidence in the sincerity and char
acter of Miles PoindeXter, and they
have no confidence in John L. Will
son. They regard the former as a
man of courage and principle; they
regard the latter as a pestiferous
place-hunter and a political juggler.
When the time comes they will de-
feat the former and elect the latter

FRUIT MEN WON
|. EASTERN BRIDES
Brother and Sister Princi-
pals in Double Wed
ding in Spokane.

Spokane, July 15.-Last summer
Miss Louise Laid and Miss Agnes
Linega of Muskegon, Mich, came
west to visit Miss Ladd's brother,
George B. Ladd, a prosperous fruit
rancher at Riverside. Since then
both fair visitors have decided to
make the west their home, and this
evening there will be a double wed
ding at the home of Rev. O. A.
Worthing, 1892 Dean avenue.
The young women returned to
Spokane this morning and with
their fiances called during the fore
noon at the auditors office, where
the marriage licenses were issued.
Miss Ladd is to wed Earl c. Quack-
enbush and Miss Linega will become
the wife of George B. Ladd.
The bridegrooms came west six
years ago and have comfortable
homes ready for their brides on ad-
joining fruit ranches on the OkanO-
gan river, where they will begin
housekeeping at once. Mr.. Laid
was formerly from Detroit and Mr..
Quackenbush was engaged in the
real estate business at Washington.

ST, SW|TH|N' 5 AN
N|vERSARY
Second Only to Grounding
in Calendar Of Super
stitiOns.

This is St. Swithin's Day, a day
second only to Grounding Day in the
calendar of the superstitious. Ac-
cording to the ancient legend,
st. Swithin's day, if thou dost rain,
For forty days it will remain;
st. Swithin's day, if thou be fair,
For forty days twill rain nal mair.
Before he became a saint Swithin
was bishop of Winchester and chan
cellor of the realm. 1t was in Win
chester that he was reared, educat-
ed in the monastery which in due
time received his VOWS and over
which he was made provost after his
ordination by Bishop Helinstand.
He was so famed as a wise and pru-
dent man that King Egbert appoint
ed him tutor to his son Ethelwold.
In 838 Ethelwold succeeded his ia
Their and returned to secular life,
for he had already been ordained a
subdeacOn. In $50 he secured the
conservation of his old tutor to the
see of Winchester, made his chan
cellor and through his urgency set
aside a title of all the lands of the
kingdom for the church.
Bishop Swithin accompanied AL
fred the Great to Rome Tor his con-
firmation, ruled his see for ten
years and died July 2, S62. Such
was his humility that he requested
that he might be buried outside his
cathedral church, where the feet
of passersby might tread and the
rain of heaven fall on his tomb. y
The legend connecting his name
with the weather arose from the
moving of his body from the lowly
grave in the churchyard to it's gol-
den shrine in the cathedral being
delayed by continuous rain. When
the clergy were about to commence
the ceremony of removing the bish-
ops remains a heavy rain burst
forth and continued without inter-
for the forty succeeding
days. The monks interpreted this
as a warning from heaven
of the blasphemous nature of their
to contravene the direction
of st. Swithin. Consequently it was
not until 1894 that the remains
were finally removed to the choir
of the new cathedral. where they
still repose in the offeretory behind
the reredos.

Progressive Republicanism the Peo-
pies Work.

James r. Garfield, while annOunc-
ing his acceptance of the appellation
of 'insurgent," declared that the
country owes a debt of gratitude to
the insurgents"
There is truth in this statement, a
material measure of truth.
But there is a sense in which it is
still more true that the insurgents
are indebted to their country for
gratitude.
For insurgency is not so much
cause as an effect. Progressive re-
publicanism, as insurgency is more
truly styled, is the people at work.
1t is the result of the uprising of the
republican rank and file against the
control of certain leaders by interests
inimical to the welfare of the people
as a whole. 1t began with the pro-
test of liberal republicans nj 1872
against corrupt elements and re-
dictionary tendencies within the
party. 1t continued in the granger
movement of the prairie states
against the tyranny of the railroads.
It's reform of the party saved this
in 1876; and every subsequent sue
cess of the republican party has been
due to the presence and power Of
this reforming progressive element
and to responsiveness to the pres
sure of public opinion upon the
party's leadership.
The political problem to be settled
by the people next autumn is whe-
Their the republican party, now led
by progressive men in touch with the
people, or the democratic party,
whose leadership is untouched by
progressiveness but is in sympathy
with the special interests, shall con-
troll the next house of representatives
and so promote the progress of legis-
lation in the peoples interest.
The nation confronts a serious
situation in the development of its
political life and policies. The ques-
ton is whether the nation, the peo-
pie politically organized, shall con-
troll the peoples property-that is,
natural resources and interstate cor
porations-in the peoples behalf; or
whether it shall let privileged and
private interests control them in
their own behalf through the states.
The republican party is the logical
exponent of the new federalism. Pro-
gressiye republicanism has proved
that the republican party conserves
the common good.-Spokesman-Re-
view.

''All our mercantile clients are
enjoying the best of trade at pres
ent and they are loading up with
big stocks for fall trade" says the
cashier of the Farmers and Merch-
ants bank. mot only is local pros
perity a present blessing in Wenat-
chez, but my reports from all over
are that the country is entering an
other period of unusual financial
harmony. We as people have
been drunk with extravaganza. OF
late years the laboring man has
lived as the rich man thought glut-
tonous a quarter century ago. 1t
is well for the country that people
are now beginning to see this folly.
In the readjustment, some lines of
business may appear temporarily
to suffer. But we bankers are glad
to see the people inclined to buy
less and to pay more On their obli-
cations.
Il look for renewed activity in
the real estate market. One of the
causes is the Widespread failure of
dry farming this season. Many of
these wheat ranchers who have ac-
CURED some competence are going
to compare the profits and ease and
certainties of the fruit growing in
dustry as compared with their hard
proposition. We will soon see some
of them in here wanting to buy
five and ten acre tracts which they
will find more profitable and COM
Portable than quarter sections of
wheat ranches.

Mr.. Ludington showed the World
representative the books of the We
natchee Furniture company to estab-
lish the fact that sales for April and
May of this year were so per cent
more than for the same months of
last year. June shows credit sales
increased one-third and cash sales
a fifth above June, 1909. AS for
the future, the company has placed
orders for five carloads to be deliv-
cred this fall. Record business is
anticipated.

Il am new merchant in Wenat-
Chez" said the Owl druggist, "but
l have learned one thing, and that
is to prepare for uncertain freight
shipments in the winter. For that
reason, l am buying complete
stock right now for the winter trade.
l don't propose to have my business
held up again waiting for the rail
road to deliver shipments"
p. p. HoloOmb.
1--WE are placing almost the same
orders for fall shipments as usual"
is the statement of the merchant and
fruit grower. Trade should be-
heavier this year than ever before
because the ranchers will be rolling
in money very SOON"
e. M. Upper.
THE Toggery will have the big
gest and best stock of it's history
this fall. Wenatchee will have an
enormous crop-about $4,000
and 1 figure the people will want to
spend quite a little of this vast
amount. Things will be doing, all
right, all right"
Geo. III. Ellis.
Geo. H. Ellis, Jr., the president
of the Ellis-Forde company, said:
Business for the past six months
has far exceeded any corresponding
period of any former business year
The business has grown rapidly as
evidenced by the necessity of the
new annex to our present store
building. This annex will double
the present capacity Of the store
and Mr.. Fisk is now in New York
buying dry goods and other lines.
We are stocking heavily for the fall
bsuiness and we expect a record
breaker in spite of the light grain
crop. We believe conditions war
rant us in doing this. We are sure
of a good crop of fruit and fair
prices and there should be more
money in this valley this fall than
ever before We are ready with the
supplies needed and hope to get our
share"

THE SENATORIAL QUARTETTE.

The Inland Herald of Spokane,
which is supporting Judge Burke for
senator, recently INDUCED in little
political speculation since the home
coming of Congressman Poindexter,
and it concluded that there are too
many candidates in the field from
the west side. 1t balanced Humph-
rey's candidacy of Seattle with that
of Freeman of North Yakima, and
considered them inconsequential.
With the candidacy of Wilson, Burke
and Ashton, however, it recognized
an element of strength in each of
them, and viewing conditions in the
light of cold facts, it urges one of
them to be game and withdraw from
the contest
The question arises, will either of
the three withdraw? The chances
are that they will not. Judge Burke
is stronger, in Seattle, than is Will
son. On the other hand Wilson is
much stronger than Burke through
out the state. Consequently each
Seattle candidate feels that he has a
chance to win, and it would be almost
impossible to induce either of them
to withdraw. Certainly Wilson, with
the support of Senator Jones, the
Post-Intelligencer and the republican
organization of the state, will not
withdraw. On account of the strong
rivalry between Seattle and Tacoma,
it is improbable that General Ash
ton will withdraw in favor of Sc
attic candidate.
The comment of the Inland Her
aid is as follows:
Unfortunately for the candidates
from west of the mountains, the di-
vision of votes reduces considerably
the chances of any one of them. That
Mr.. Poindexter represents one ele-
ment of the republican party, and
all the other candidates together an
other element, there is no doubt;
and it can hardly be expected that
there is such an overwhelming ma
jority of the so-called regulars as to
make it possible for four candidates
to divide the vote among themselves
and still very strongly hope for sue
cess. The situation on the west side
should be simplified. Some one
should withdraw, and that among the
stronger candidates. The candidacy
of Mr.. Humphreys is little better
than a joke at best, and need not be
seriously considered. But the can
didacies of Senator Wilson, Judge
Burke and General Ashton are seri-
Gus. Each of them is strong man,
of undoubted merit, and with large
personal following; and each will get
thousands of votes that would go to
the other candidate if the first step
ped out of the field.
These three gentlemen, Senator
Wilson, Judge Burke and General
Ashton, should all be good sports
men, study the situation carefully,
consider the interests of the party
first, and then the man who plainly
sees that his chances are hopeless
should withdraw and make it POS
sible for some other man to sue
coed"
