BRADEN OR LA TOILETTE FOR
CONGRESS.

While chief interest in this con-
gressional campaign has centered in
the senatorship, yet voters of the
Third congressional district should
bear in mind that a representative
is to be elected from this district
The fight against Cannonism has
only been partially won. Unless
there is large sprinkling of repre-
sentatives elected this fall who are
pledged to oppose this system, a man
may be placed in the speakership
by the next congress who represents
substantially the same thing as Can
nonism. For this reason especial
care should be used in making a
choice.
There are FIVE republican con-
gressional aspirants from this dis
trict. 1t is time that the voters were
selecting the strongest men from
these aspirants for first and second
choice. Recent developments clear
ly indicate that the strongest cam
paign is being made by w. L. La
Toilette, of Pullman, and Charles
H. Braden, of Spokane. These men
come from the most populous dis
tricts of the state and consequently
this adds prestige to their candidacy.
Their utterances on the questions of
conservation and Cannonism ring
true. They have not attempted to
straddle the issues which are now
before the American people as did
Seabury Merritt, of Spokane. Be-
cause of his shuffling attitude, Mr..
Merritt has not commended himself
to progressive republican voters.
1t is now generally conceded
that the progressive vote of the
Third district is to be centered on
the candidacy of Braden and La Fol-
lette, because these men have all
the chances of winning in their favor
The successor of Miles Poindexter
must be a man who can be depended
on to represent the people, and either
Mr.. Braden or Mr.. La Toilette pos
sess these qualifications. By voting
for either of these men for first or
second choice, the election of one or
the other of them is assured.

QUARREL ON ROAR.
INC CREEK
Judge Grimshaw Has Diff.
Guilty in Securing
Evidence.

The case of PackwoOd ct al VS..
Finley ct al was in court again this
morning, Attorneys Thomas and
Williams appearing for the plaintiff
and Fred Reeves and w. o. Parr for
the defendant. This case has been
causing a great deal of trouble and
friction for the past year. In June
the court ordered the water of Roar
ing creek, which empties into the
Entiat river, measured and ordered
that the results might be used as evil
dence in the forthcoming trial.
Nothing was done with the order
by the plaintiffs until last week. On
August II the attorneys agreed to
employ Fred Warren to go up and
measure the water three times,
morning, noon and night. He made
two measurements on the 10th and
returned, making an affidavit that he
was prevented by one of the plant
ifs from completing his task. This
affidavit was read in the court this
morning and arguments made by
both sides.
Packwood's counsel explained that
their clients had no desire or pur-
pose to interfere with the proper
measurement of the water, but the

judge plainly stated that in the trial
it will prejudice the case of either
side if it can be shown that the or
ders of the court to secure evidence
are interfered with. He stated that
the friction existing between the
parties to the suit is so great that
the work of measuring the water
should be supervised by the counsel
Attorney Thomas suggested that
his client would pay all the expenses
of the judge if he would himself be
present when the measurement is
taken. But Judge Grimshaw was
not inclined to accept the offer. 1t
was finally agreed that tomorrow
Fred Warren should again go up and
have three days within which to per-
form the work; also that he should
be accompanied by Attorney Will
Jams for the plaintiff and Attorney
Parr for the defendant
Considerable bad blood has been
stirred up in regard to this case. 1t
has been freely predicted that vio-
lence may break out at any moment.
Threats have been made, but so far
nothing serious has happened.

BUILDING TWO NEW
BRIDGES
Entiat and Lake Wenatchee
Localities Will Receive
Large Benefits.

Jack Quigg has begun work on his
contract to build a bridge across the
Wenatchee river at the foot of Lake
Wenatchee. He is hauling in ma
terial at this time and expects to have
the foundations laid within a month
The time of completion is uncertain
owing to the fact that steel materials
are shipped from Pennsylvania.
This bridge will accommodate a
population of about 125 people. In
order to reach the Great Northern
railway by wagon road these people
are now compelled to drive % miles
to Leavenworth. When the bridge
is completed it will be only a short
distance of five miles to Wood Spur.
Another advantage of the bridge is
that it will make it much more con-
venient for campers who wish to go
to the lake for a day.
Garrick & Garrick, of Seattle, have
secured the contract for constructing
bridge across the Entiat river at a
point about five miles from the
Entiat postoffice, one mile above
Farris, near the mouth of Roaring
creek. These contractors are the
people who constructed the great Co
lumbia river bridge at Wenatchee.
They are now hauling in material for
the Entiat structure and will start
building by October /. 1t is not ex-
pected that the bridge will be COM
pleted before next spring.

around some of the rapids they

ing in the harvest fields for some
time and are taking the trip down
the river to get acquainted with the
country and as a sort of a vacation.

cent pheasants are standing. not yet
aware of approaching disaster.

men would approach. One fellow
said: What kind of lOng-tailed

pheasant.
The window dresser to whom Gre
dit is due for the display is Matt
Sweeney, one of the clerks of the
store.

RADICAL CHANGE N
WOMEN'S SHOES
The Wonderful Ease of the
Red Cross Shoe is Bringing
Out Many limitations.
Shoe Manufacturers all over
the United States Are Try
ing to Produce a Flex-
ible Sole.

One of the greatest successes ever
made in the shoe business, said Mr..
Lagen OF the Ellis-Forde company, to-
day, is the Red Cross shoe. It has
taught women that comfort and style
can be perfectly combined, and as a
result a revolution is taking place in
the making of women's shoes. Other
manufacturers are trying every meth
cd they can think of to get the results
secured by the Red Cross tanning
process. Soles are "slashed,"
"flexed" and worked" in an effort to
make them flexible. but like all imi-
tations they lack the merit of the
original.
The superiority of the Red Cross
shoe lies in the fact that its sole is
the highest grade leather put through
special tanning process, which takes
six months time. No acids or
"stuffing of any kind are used to
hurry it through. AS a result all the
natural life and elasticity of the
leather are preserved. It bends with
the foot, giving a delightful feeling
Of ease and comfort, and it's durability
is not in the least impaired.
The numerous imitators of the Red
Cross shoe cannot use this special tan
ming process so they endeavor to
make 'just as good" shoe from the
ordinary sole leather of commerce.
Much of this is tanned in six weeks
time. 1t cannot be compared to the
Red Cross sole leather in quality and
it has very little flexibility. 1t is
broken up by machinery in an eff
fort to make it flexible and the result
is never satisfactory. Women are
learning to avoid these "made-over"
substitutes and are demanding the
genuine Red Cross shoe.
A great many women, continued
Mr.. Lagan, have an idea that COM
They have become so used to break
ing in ordinary shoes to get the
style they want that the Red Gross
shoe proves somewhat of revelation.
They find that it has all the style they
could ask form fact, they can wear
a closer fit, and they do not have to
break it in. The new styles for fall
are the smartest, trimmest shoes we
have ever had in our store. Any wom-
an will find it a pleasure to look at
them. 1t will be only necessary to try
them on her feet and allow her to
bend the flexible sole to make her a
Red Cross shoe convert for life.
