principle Of which is that only those
offices should be elective which are
important enough to attract and de
serve public examination and that
very few Offices should be filed by
election at one time. so as to permit
adequate and unconfused public ex
animation of the candidates. In other

ballot chiefly by making minor places.

To explain this principle to the
American public and help secure it's
adoption an organization has been
formed having the following officers:
President, Woodrow Wilson; vice pres
idents, Winston Churchill. Horace e.
Deming. Ben B. Lindsey, William S.

In bringing before the public the
short ballot idea Richard S. Childs, the
secretary of the short ballot organiza-
ton. has put the matter in light that
will make most Of us sit up and realize
that there is much sound sense in the
plan. For instance. how much does
the average voter know about the men
for whom he is casting his ballot on
election day? OF course he has studied
the candidates for president, governor
and mayor. read their speeches and
knows what they stand for, but how
about the other candidates? All his
spare time has been taken up in get

error omitted the state comptroller en-

CHE[Ah COUNTY'S
FIRST JURY
OF THE MEMBERS OF
THE FIRST JURY CALLED To-
GETHER IN THIS COUNTY ARE
STILL RESIDENTS.

The records of Chelan county do
not go back very far and it may be
interesting to know that the first
Jury trial in the county was on We'd
nesday, June II, 1901. An old copy
of the Wenatchee Advance, then pub
lished by Fred Reeves, contains a
good cut of this body. The jury was
composed of J. B. Palmer, foreman;
w. N. Pate, J. F. Proctor, A. Wilks,
E. Allen, J. X. Cumins, Sandy CHS
holm, David Sullivan, Elias Brong,
Lou Johnson, A n. Courtway and c.
Derby.
The case on trial involved a parole
contract for real estate. In 1898 j.
HI. Miller entered into contract with
Alpheus Messerly to sell him ten acres
of land. Messerly took possession at
once. He made some permanent i'm
provements upon the land but later
on there appeared to be some mis-
understanding over the terms OF the
agreement and Mr.. Miller considered
the contract void because of the vio-
lation of the terms. He subsequent
" sold the land to George w. Brown.
Mr.. Brown commenced the action to
get Messerly off of the land, but the
Jury held for Messerly.
The case was tried before Judge
Neal. Judge Martin was the attor-
ney for Messerly AMI A. j. Amos for
Miller and Brown.

up the records of the minor candi-
dates. Even ex-President Eliot Of
Harvard, the ideal citizen" confessed
In a public address that he did this
very thing too. This Is not all the
fault of the voter. To cast q really in
telligent ballot from a mere study Of
newspapers, campaign literature and
speeches Is impossible, because prac-
tically nothing is ever published about
the minor candidates.
To prevent this blind voting. to place
on the ticket two or three names only,
he Is casting his ballot for, the short
ballot is suggested. This would limit
the elective list to Offices that are nat
urally conspicuous. The little Offices
that the voter seldom gives a thought
to must go of the ballot and be ap-
pointive. 1t may be objected to that
to take the miner Offices of the state
ticket, for instance. and make them
appOintive by the governor would be
giving too much power. Well, as Mr..
Childs sensibly argues, somebody, we
