Climbing Higher Up on the Monkey Pole

To The Echo's charge that it had
been guilty Of willful mendacity, not to
mention other moral delinquencies, the
Wenatchee Republic is eloquently ST.
lent. Our Wenatchee readers must
have noticed this confession in avoid
ance." In the issue of Monday Of this
week its editor, initiating the harmless
methods OF primary grade school chill
dren, stuck out his tongue and made
faces by calling the editor OF The
Echo "rubber-legged" and elastic
head" 1t is just such convincing ar
guments as these that remind one Of
the monkey climbing a pole.
The editor Of The Echo has but one
desire, and that is to see the entire
county republican ticket elected, to
which all of his energies will be direct
ed. In its feeble way the Republic
will try to bring. about its defeat, or at
least such members on the ticket as re-
fuse to pungle up. Watch it.
AS republican the editor OF this
paper will, as his judgment dictates,
make such comment on the conduct
of the campaign as he sees fit. AS a
committeeman he has issued no orders
and does not expect to. He detests
bossism in every form, and does not
propose to become one himself.
Still climbing up the monkey pole,
with that same disregard for truth
which characterized his former sophie
moric splitter, the editor Of the Repub-
lie says: Before the conventions made
any nominations he Magyar had re-
ceived telegram from Judge Grim
shaw declining a place on the ticket"
The telegram from Judge Grimshaw
was in reply to one advising him that
he had been nominated. 1t is to break
into outlaws to listen to this addle-
pated editor. He printed in his own
paper a week ago the telegram Judge
Grimshaw sent in reply to the one adj
vising him OF his nomination. To draw
him into showing still more OF his edi-
torial backside were unkindness of
which this paper is incapable.
We leave him to his own reflections
and invoke the mercy OF his readers.
This incident is a closed chapter.

This week closes the first period Of
school work. The pupils are enthus-
iastic over their examinations. Report
cards will be issued early next week.
The carpenter work, which has been
in progress in the basement for some
time, is about completed. We will be
glad when we hear the saw and ham
mer no more. They do not harmonic
with school work.
Miss MacNeil, with her third grade
pupils, who have been temporarily
camped in the library room, moved to
their coy new room last Monday.
The manual training room is nearly
completed, and class in that work
will be organized in the near future.
We have had some very favorable
reports from the flower seeds that were
distributed among the pupils last spring,
and received some boquets, the pro-
ducts of these seeds. This is first
step in horticulture and agriculture,
subjects which should receive more at
tention in the common schools. A
class in elementary agriculture will be
organized in the eighth grade during
the last semester.
The botany class will take their first
field trip this week.
In accordance with the regulations
of the county board of education, many
Of the text books have been changed.
The new books are highly appreciated.
Many of the old books were in bad
condition.
There is a rumor afloat that teachers
institute will be held during the week
beginning Oct. %, altho the report is
not official.
Last Friday we were favored by visits
from mesdames w. Titus. o. Titus and
Patterson. Monday p. m. mesdames
G. w. Sampson and VANDERBILT favored
US with their presence.
Each week a number of new names
appear on the enrolment. The follow
ing pupils have entered school since
enrolment day: Lilly Johnson, Robert
Hood, Carl Anderson, Roy Albright,
Bird Wortzkey, Ruth Emerson, Evitto
Hill, Fred Nelson, Eunice Debord,
Dean Haines, Henry Gohlmann, Sadie
Howerton, Marguerite and Raymond

Meat Strike.

The high price of meat has become
not only one of the most interesting but,
for the people in the cities, one of the
most serious of recent news matters. In
many Northern cities boycott on meat
has been begun, the members becoming
temporary vegetarians ID the hope of re-
duclng meat prices. aThere are not
enough people on the farms raising food
and too many people are gong to the
cities to be fed. is the taconic explana-
ton given by Secretary Wilson, and he
goes on to point out that three quarters
of million people are coming to America
annually from Europe. and all of these
go to the towns to increase the already
too high proportion OF city people. For
these and other reasons, the high price
OF meat at least as compared with other
commodities is likely to continue. and
all this means, of course. big profits for
the farmers who grow the meat. There
has never been a better time for starting
a general crusade in behalf of stock rails
ing in the Southern States.--Souther
