The longest automobile parade
ever seen in Spokane will assemble
this evening on the occasion of Pres
ident Taft's visit to Spokane, accord
ing to plans which have been ar
ranged there.
This honoring of President Taft
has caused many kinds of remarks
since the announcement has been
made, some people believing that
the demonstration is entirely un-
called for.
The American people should re-
member that the president Of the
United States is the greatest per-
sonage in the world-he is more
greatly honored by man than any
other person in the world. President
Taft, as president, is rightly honored
anywhere he goes, for he is at the
head of the greatest government in
the world.
William H. Taft as an individual
is merely a dub, a creation and a
tool Of Wall street, man who has
deliberately lied to the American peo-
pie, man who has sacrif ed the
American people in order to favor the
eastern moneyed interests. AS an in
dividual there can be no good reason
for giving him honor which is not
due.
But as our president-that is
different matter. AS president any
man is entitled to an honored recep-
tion. Dislike his actions as we may,
we must remember that the president
represents us among the nations.
He was elected by. the American peo-
pie. Our pride in our country must
not be lost in our knowledge that his
stomach is too big and his mind too
small for the job.

According to the figures sent in by
the state board of tax commissioners
the Spokane Falls and Northern rail-
road, in Stevens county, is assessed
this year at $1,15O,765. This is an
increase of $184,451 over the assess
ment of 1910. This makes the entire
assessed valuation of all property in
this county $7,858,5O7. For Pend
Oreille county the assessed valuation
of the Idaho and Washington North
ern railroad and the Great Northern
railroad is $1,712,8O7, an increase
of $973,072 over the assessment for
1910. This gives the new county a
total valuation of all property of
$5,O15,OO0. AS will be seen by this
statement, the new county gets much
the best OF it, as far as railroad valu-
alton is concerned. giving Pend
Oreille county $562.042 more railroad
valuation than Stevens county.

vens county fair is in Spokane max
ing final arrangements for special

What would you consider one of the
most powerful agents with which to
flavor water? Would it be iron?
A half part per million of iron in
water is detachable by taste and more
than four or five parts make water
unpalatable. In some mineral springs
iron is the constituent which imparts
medical value to- the water, but
ordinarily it is undesirable. More
than 2.5 parts per million in water
used for laundering makes stain on
clothes. Iron must be removed from
water from which ice is made or
cloudy, discolored product will result.
An iron content of over or 8 parts
per million in water used in the man
ufacture of paper will stain the paper.
Iron is harmful in water used for
steaming, for it is in equilibrium
with acids which inside the boiler be-
come disassociated, with the result
that the free acids corrode the boiler
plates; but the amount of iron car
ried in solution by most waters Is 80
small that the damage 1t does to steam
boilers generally amounts to little.
Waters having high iron content
have in some places caused an i'm
mense amount Of trouble and expense
when used as city supplies, for they
favor the growth of Crenothrix to
such a degree that the water pipes
become clogged with the iron sheaths
OF the organism. The removal Of
iron from water is sometimes easy
and sometimes very difficult.

Hanna Brothers Store
: Ordered to Stop Advertising

TIME first of the week the Hanna Bros. store was
ordered by the city marshal to stop spreading
hand bills about the city. On these bills the
store has been telling of the great bargains in the
closing sale No other store in the city is able to
give such values for other store is closing out and
by word has passed to the city's officer
that the Hanna stores bill peddng had better stop.
And we were ordered to STOP Everybody knows that
bill peddling has always been allowed in Colve.
During political campaigns millions of cards, posters,
hand bills, ETC.. strewn about the city, with no
protest They not selling clothing, of course And
we are. 1t makes difference. qIf are compelled
to stop advertising, will lose money and the people
of Colyile will lose money, for giving stuff
away at cost, and the public lots of money
For instance, we have sold number of mems suits
for 100 to Sc 90 each. The buyers made money
qEvery day we close out some special ne and give
prices below cost to get rid Of the remaining articles
1t means money to the buyers. And this may be the
reason for the word being sent to stop advertising
give can not blame other stores for not liking our
closing out sale. But the other hand, they
hardly blame for wanting to sell goods quickly
and if they do not sell below COST they can
buy all have left cost and retail it themselves
at higher price. We don't care-we want cur
money out of it NOW. We are getting it, too and it

PENSIONERS WILL
 GET 68 PER CENT
Is $553,211 in Confederate Pension Fund, While Allowances Total $S13,545. According to
 Auditor.

Confederate pensioners in ArkaE- sas, in the aggregate, will be paid more money in pensions this year than last, but each will receive less percentage Last year the total al lowances to pensioners amounted to $77S,9S5, and there was available for distribution little more than So43,2S9 which enabled the state to pay 70 per cent of the amount allowed to each pensoner This year the allowances have increased 10 SS13,545, while the pension fund has increased 10 $5553,2l being 6S per cent of the allowances, and this is the percentage to be paid the pensioners this year.
 While many of the old veterans are dying, thus terminating their pen sions, in many cases they leave wi dows who are eligible TO pensions, and receive them. There has been a larg CT number of applications for increase this year than ever before, and this, ill
 
 crease in the aggregate amount of al loWanceS.
 Although the recent legislature ap- propriate S1 25o, ,o00 to pay the pen sions of 1911-12, only such amount of this can be paid as is produced by tho special tax levied and collected for this purpose. Many of the pensioners appear to be under the impression that there will be distributed this year one-haf the amount appropriat- ed, which would be $625,000 but this is not the case, as there can be paid only such amount as the special tax produces, regardless of the amount appropriated.
 The clerical work in the state au- ditor's office incident to making out the warrants, nearly 5000 in number, is progressing, and it is expected the warrants will be ready for distribu tion between September 15 and 20.
