SO MUCH FoR DREAMS.

81 MUCH FUR DREAMS.
The splendor fades as the years go by,
The glory dies out of dream
And things are no more-alas, are no
more
As fair as they used to seem,
Though many a castle I builded then
On far-away hills of Spain,
In a quiet nook, with a story book,
While the world was splashed with
rain,
Not one of those dreams has ever come
true,
To gladden. a weary heart;
I'm ploddiRg along with a motley throng
And playing an alien part!

WHEELER SECURES
JUDGMENT


Clarence Wheeler secured a YER
dict in the superior court yesterday
in the well known case of Wheeler
versus Daniels. This is the case
wherein Wheeler sued for judgment
on note given in payment for a
team of horses sold by Wheeler three
years ago to w. E. Daniels. Shortly
after Daniels took posses sion of the
horses both died and Daniels sought
to evade payment on the note on the
representation that the horses were
diseased when they were sold. In
the trial year ago Daniels was given
the verdict, but new trial was grant
ed and yesterday the verdict was for
Wheeler, the judgment being $3.50,
the amount of the note, with the $75
provided as attorneys fees and inter-
est, amounting in all to $645.95. Be-
sides this amount the costs will be
added.
Reeves & Reeves are attorneys for
the plaintiff while Mr.. Daniels was
represented by Ludington & Kemp.

WILL MAKE STATE
M[NT SOON
WILL TELL THE PEOPLE WHY HE
FOUGHT THE BALLINGER POL
ICY OF OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
MJNICATTNG WITH ROOSEVELT

Washington, Jan. Clifford Pin
chot is preparing public statement,
which will be designed to vindicate
his position in the controversy which
led to his dismissal as chief forester
by President Taft.
Stories that Pinchot has been in
communication with President Roose-
velt since the former president went
to Africa, are not denied by Pinchot's
friends today.
The Taft administration supporters
appear to be much concerned over
the possible contents of the forth
coming Pinchot statement. They ex-
peet it will point out in strong terms
what Pinchot considers the dangers
of the attitude of the Taft admins
tration toward the conservation of
natural resources.
Pinchot is preparing the statement
in his capacity as private citizen.
The work so far has been slow, as he
has been constantly interrupted by a
stream of sympathetic visitors. He is
being buried under an avalanche of
mail and kilograms from friends and
sympathizers throughout the country.
To justify his action in calling. to
the public attention the Cunningham
coal land cases, Pinchot will take the
position that President Taft's letter
to Secretary Ballinger last September
closed all avenues of official remedy
for the situation and made an appeal
to the public necessary. The presi-
dents letter was made public while
he was on his western tour and clear
ed Ballinger of charges brought by
L. R. CLAWS.
The former chief forester spent
most of today with former Associate
Forester Price and former Assistant
Law, who were dismissed at the same
time as Pinchot.

THIS is MY 4STH BIRTHDAY
Henry I. Miller.

Henry Irving Miller, president of
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois rail-
road, was born in Cleveland, Ohio,
January IL, 1862, and was educated
at Mount st. Mary's college, Emmits-
burg, Md. and Cornell university.
His career as a railroad man dates
from 1880, when he became a clerk
with the Pennsylvania company.
From this position he rose in the
Pennsylvania service until he became
division superintendent. In 1901 he
was appointed general manager of
the Vandalia line and from 1903 to
1905 he filled similar position with
the Rock Island system. He left the
Rock Island to become vice president
of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois and
soon after was promoted to the pres
idency. Some time ago the mikado
of Japan honored Mr.. Miller by con-
ferring upon him the Order of the
Sacred Treasure, Third Degree. for
his aid in bringing Japanese railroads
up to high standard.

Eighme L. Eighme Have Fire.

The most disastrous fire in the his
tory of Riverside and the first one in
town occurred Thursday morning.
The building destroyed was the prop
erty of F. j. Cummings and was oc-
cupied by the Okanogan Valley Meat
Co., Eighme & Eighme. proprietors.
The building is total loss. 1t was
insured in the Liverpool. London &
Globe Insurance Co. for $500 through
the Lund agency.
The loss of Eighme & Eighme is es-
timated to be about $500 on stock
and fixtures. The firm saved its
books and accounts, the cash register,
one chopping block, the stock of fresh
meat on hand, and a few other ar
ticles, more or less damaged. The
firm carried $3.50 insurance on stock
and fixtures in the Phoenix Assurance
Co. of London through the Lund
agency-Riverside Argus.

Wa Wa.

The annual board OF the w. H. S.
Wa Wa met and commenced work
on their production this week. The
Wa Wa has been produced yearly by
the Junior class for the last four
years. The last edition was carefully
edited and managed. The lovers of
this work were certainly given rare
treat when this production was put on
sale. The editor-in-chief, Edna
Browning, and business manager,
Earl Mari, are directly responsible
for the careful attention this edition
was given.
The annual board of this year is
composed of some very capable MEM
bers. Among these are editor-in-
chief, Henry Hartman; assistant edi-
tor. Florence Gellatly: business man
ager, c. George; assistant manager,
e. Carlberg: humorist and cartoonist,
G. Collier.
The members are putting forth
their best efforts to give the people
of Wenatchee and the student body
book worth reading 1t will contain
the best wit, cartoons, football, base
ball, literary. alumni and track news
that is to be obtained in the high
school. The Wa Wa will be produced
about the first of May, giving every
one an opportunity to purchase a
copy before school closes. The pro-
duction last year ranked among the
best editions in the the northwest.
When the annual production completes
with larger and better schools it gives
the people of Wenatchee the salts
faction of knowing that the students
of the high school are doing good
work

A VIGOROUS FOREIGN POLICY.

President Taft evidently is in
sympathy with dignified and Wig
orous foreign policy. He intends to
insist that the advantages of the
open door" policy of Ex-Secretary
Hay be preserved even if it arouses
the ire of Japan. The recent diplo-
matte note of Secretary Knox must
be interpreted to mean that the ad-
ministration feels that the United
States is being Disseminated against
by, the policy pursued by Japan in
Manchuria and it intends to protect
the commercial interests Of the Unit
ed States in the far east. There is
danger, however, of precipitating a
conflict with Japan. but the president
who had first hand knowledge of
eastern conditions evidently is thor
oughly conversant with the situation
and is prepared to meet it. President
Taft has demonstrated that when the
occasion requires it, he can be as
firm and unyielding as any of our
presidents have been.
