Total liabilities .........

The Board is forced again, as Il
has been at the end of each fiscal
year since the library was opened,
to report deficit at the end OF the
year, but the deficit is now only
Sl0262. as against much larger
amounts In previous years, The re-
suit Is that by practicing the utmost
economy the debt which the library
has carried for furnishing the same
since It's inception has been steadily
decreasing. 1t Will be observed. how
ever. that the result OF this economy
has been that but very few books
have been added to the library dur.
ing the year. the expense OF mainten-
once entirely eating up the income
derived from taxation, which is the
only income the library has.
The Board especially directs your
attention to the fact that the llbrar-
ianS upon their own account have
taken up the work or repairing all the
books, except those which need re-
binding, and this has considerably de-
creased the expense of maintaining
the library and for this Work the il
brarian and her assistants certainly
deserve the very highest credit,
The Board expresses the hope. as
it has i'll all its previous reports, that
for at least one year the city should
make the levy the highest amount al.
lowed by law, namely. one mill. In
order that the library may get entire.
" out of debt and be able to pur-
chase more books and thus meet the
ever increasing demands of the read
ing public upon the library.
I'VE beg leave TO call your atten-
ton to the report OF the librarian,
which is hereto attached, which
| shows the educational work done by
| the library during the last year and
| the donations made thereto. We es-
| pecially direct your attention TO the

NEW MARKET FOR
RED APPLES
Frank Reeves Disposes of
Is or l6 Carloads of
Apples in East.

Not satisfied with market condi-
tions in this valley, Frank Reeves
several weeks ago made a trip east
with the idea of marketing Is or IS
carloads of fruit grown this year by
himself, his father, l. w. Reeves, and
his brother, Fred Reeves.
Most of his time was spent in
Bloomington, Decatur, Danville, Gin
cinnati, Indianapolis, and some of
the interior points. In most of these
places he found that Wenatchee ap-
pies had never been marketed and
he sold the entire output of l. w.
Reeves & Sons grown this year on
the Wenatchee river place and also
the places west of the city.
Mr.. Reeves believes that the grow
ers themselves have not developed
the market here as they should, and
he believes that by reaching interior
points in the east, the local market
can be greatly extended. He does
not care to make public the prices
received on the fruit, but he states
that they are very satisfactory to
himself and associates.

While nothing positive has been
announced by either of the growers
concerned, it is likely that Mike Ho-
ran, of this city, and Capt. Burbank,
of Cashmere, will exhibit at the Van
couver National Apple Show. 1t is
also generally expected that w. E.
Human, of Cashmere, and c. G.
France, of this city, will exhibit at
the National Apple Show at Spokane.
Mike Koran will have a car of mixed
varieties, Capt Burbank and w. E.
Human will exhibit Spitzenbergs.
and c. G. France will have a Wine
sap exhibit.
The local exhibit committee Of
which Ira D. Edwards is chairman,
has worked faithfully to secure ex-
hibitions at both places, but so far,
neither of the four growers have
made definite statements as to what
they will do, but it is generally ex-
pected that they will exhibit at the
places named.

HART TOOK HIS OWN LIFE YESTERDAY
NO CITY SCHOOL
SUSPENSION
But Few Responded to the
Call for Patrons Meeting
With Board Saturday.

AS was predicted in the Daily
World, the school board does not
consider the emergency sufficient to
Justify the suspension Of the city
schools for a week. A meeting was
called for the school board and pa
irons interested in the matter OF
closing the schools Saturday night
Few patrons responded and the board
decided that the suspension was un-
necessary. Permits, however, will
be granted to the students desiring
to assist in the apple picking and
packing this week. Superintendent
Brown stated late this morning that
few permits were asked.
Vote for the Bonds.
There was little interest taken in
the special bond election here Satur-
day for the purpose of authorizing
the school board to issue bonds to
the amount of $4,000 for the addi-
ton to the Lincoln school building.
There were but IS votes cast and
these were favorable to the building.
Awarded Small Contract.
The school board awarded a con-
tract for the connection of the main
sewer with the Stevens school build
ing to c. o. WATSON for SAT.

FOR JOINT ROAD
COMMISSION
Wenatchee Men Went to Ell
lensburg to Confer With
Kittitas on State Road.

Messrs. Wells, Gellatly and Clark,
the Commercial Club committee hav-
ing in charge the location of state
road No. Z, between here and Ellens-
burg, left today for Ellensburg in
the Wells White Steamer. They
were accompanied by Engineer Copp.
of the state road commission, and
the object of the trip is for the pur-
pose of comforting and arranging
with the Kittitas county people for
a joint commission to work for the
location of the road and have charge
of the legislative enactment in the
state legislature.
The party left here at noon and
will go by way of the Colockum. 1t
was showing hard on the Cascade
summit this morning and fears were
entertained that there might be some
difficulty in making the trip, but the
Wells car is a powerful machine and
if the road is not too bad the car
can make it.
The committee was in consultation
several hours yesterday with Engi-
neer Copp, and it is thought best to
go ahead with the final location of
the Colockum route. Kittitas coun-
ty is progressing nicely with the en-
cheering part of the work in that
county and the work is now on the
lower levels away from the snow.

E0RGER|ES IN
TACOMA
ROLLS
City of Destiny Tried to Get
Away With Count of
10000 Population.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 17.-Ta-
coma, Portland and Seattle are all
guilty of padding census returns, but
Tacoma takes the cake with 1925
false names out of 1925 turned in
to the census bureau, her correct
population being announced tonight
as S2,972.
The list of cities in whose returns
padding was discovered was given
out as follows:
Minneapolis, Mimi.
Portland, Oregon.
Tacoma, Wash.
Aberdeen, Wash.
Boise, Idaho.
Great Falls, Montana.
Fort Smith, Ark.
Seattle, Wash.
No figures other than those for
Tacoma were given out. A letter
from President Taft to Secretary Ma
gel and made public by Director Du-
rand of the census bureau, says:
The cases of all those who ap-
peared to have violated the law
should be investigated by the grand
jury and if sufficient evidence is
found to justify it, they shorld be
indicted and prosecuted at once
Nothing will be conduce to secure a
proper census as the prosecution OF
those who attempt fraud upon the
law >,
The present correct population OF
Tacoma was announced to be 82,972,
an increase since 1900 of A. 25S or
800 per cent 1t was stated that the
padding amounted to not less than
1926.
Director Durand named Stacey NJ.
Corwin, special agent of the CEN
sus bureau in Tacoma, as being re-
sponsible for much of the padding in
that city. He declared that persons
were enumerated as residing in va
cant lots and at fictitious numbers.
The greater part of the padding at
Tacoma was done through slips
printed by organizations and private
individuals in such a mrnner as to
appear similar to the census slips
and containing the same questions.
These slips were scattered about the
city, distributed in stores, factories,
offices and from tables on street cor
ners
Wherever a person was discover
ed who claimed that he should be
enumerated a slip was filled out for
him or by him." said Durand.

WRECKERS
Fooled
Attempt Made Last Night
to Cause a Wreck on the
Great Northern.

An attempt to wreck Great Nor
thern train is supposed to be the
purpose of someone who last night
heaped two piles of rocks on the
track. One of these piles was near
the bridge and consisted of large
heavy stones, and the other one half
a mile south.
The discovery of the work done
by the would-be wreckers was made
by two section men, who brought the
report to the operator at the depot
and by his instruction they notified
the police. They returned at once
and cleared the track.
1t is possible that the motive was
TO wreck the fast mail train which
was due to arrive about two hours
and a half later. but there are two
reasons opposed to this suggestion
One is that the time intervening was
almost certain TO be sufficient for
several freight trains to come and go
Another is that any train robbers
would not have heapei up two piles
OF stones, but would have cOncen-
trated their efforts on one spot.
Great Northern railroad detectives
were notified and began work at an
early hour this morning. They were
assisted by the local police. No clews
have been discovered up TO this time
although two young men are being
held here with the hope of gaining
some information from them
