GEORGE WALKER is FAST I'M
PROVING.

If reports are true we will once
again in life be able to see the one
time famous comedian George Walker
who has been corfned in the Kansas
insane asylum for the last four or five

as he did inthe years gone by. The
attending physician of that institute
declares that Walker is fast becoming
sane and that if he continues to i'm
prove they will be able to have him
right inside of two months. This is
a very good tiding and it is looked
upon as some of Gods work.

R. o. time. They have played all of
the big circuits down east with great
success and hope to be booked abroad

Washington State will have a

for the protection of the home

and unjust liens, ii the plans OF

of reputable contractors, archi-

owners prevail with the next ses-
sion Of the state legislature. I'm
der the present law OF the state
almost any man connected in
any capacity with a building job
is construed to be an agent of the
property owner, giving an oppor-
tunity that has led to great
abuses. Those who suffer most
are the small home builders who
have carefully figured out just
what they can spend. 1t is a
common experience to be later
confronted with unknown claims
and unexpected liens which run
the cost far above the contract
price. Theproposed law protects
laborers and mechanics for the
full amount of their claims unless
specifically ordered by the owner.
Its effect will be to encourage
building and to make contracts

Now that politics is out of the
way for awhile tits probable that
business will get down to it's bear
inga and not only Wall street but
the country at large will go
ahead now in healthy, pros
porous course.
1t is probable that the rail
roads will hold off awhile yet un-
til the interstate commerce COM
mission has decided the question
OF rates and the supreme court
of the United States has finally
continued the antitrust laws.
There is no doubt that the rail
roads have been holding back
orders for equipment until they
are dangerously near the point
where they will not be able to
properly handle the business.
