THAT'S sound enough argument
when civilization has knocked half the
fighting power out of man. but it's
just meaningless here. In Drussen-
land man daren't bark unless he can
bite. I'd give good deal to be back In
Yadasara. The place is full of black
guards. to be sure, but they're black
guards you can understand-none of

There were three days of waiting
before the tournament, three days In

Plants That Hate Each Other

Fancy two plants being so unfriendly
that the mere neighborhood Of one is
death to the otherl Yet that is the
case with two we'll known British plants.
These are the thistle and the rape. II
the field is infested with thistles, which
come up year after year and ruin the
crops, all you have to do is to SOW it
with rape. The thistle will be absolutely
annihilated.

Business Houses and Residences Under
Construction

Business Houses and Residences Under

which is to be completed by July /.
The brick for this building are being
supplied by the local yards, of which
! Mr.. Gutherless is the proprietor. The
front is to be OF Seattle pressed
brick of brown color and will have a
very handsome appearance.
To Messrs. Lindblom & Speidel was
awarded the contract for the Weigand
building on the corner Of Front and
Commercial streets. The contract
calls for a one-story and basement
building, with the street walls con-
structed Of Spokane pressed brick and
heavy enough to later on add two addi-
tional stories, which Mr.. Weigand says
will very likely be added next year.
The iron used in the building will cost
over $500, and the plate glass over
$500. No expense will be spared to
make it frst-class building.
The Fritz building, going up under
the supervision OF Messrs. Lindblom &
Speidel, is rapidly approaching COM
pletion. The walls are completed and
the roof is being put on this week.
John F. Hartman has just about
completed a substantial cottage on his
orchard tract at the east end OF the
mill company's dam, in the Darling
tract. ]. c. Ruth is putting the finish
ing touches to a substantial two-story
frame residence in the same vicinity,
opposite Eighth street. F. S. Jacob
sen recently built an addition to his
cottage and built large and substan-
tial barn on his six acre orchard tract
in the Darling subdivision. Some
three or four other small residences
have been built by owners OF orchard
tracts in this same vicinity since the
opening of spring.
L. J. Nelson is moving into his new
home which was turned over to The
owner the past week. He has one of
the handsomest and most complete
homes in all its appointments in the
town. There are nine rooms, except
ing the drawing room there is hot and
cold water in every room, with every
other convenience that modern inven-
ton has so far suggested.
Between ten and fifteen other resi-
dences have been completed north Of
the railroad track this spring, among
the best of which are those OF F. A.
Reynolds and c. B. Campbell. the for
mer costing over $4,000. Some others
are under construction and work on
others will begin within the next week
or two.
Never in the history OF Leavenworth
has building activity been so much in
evidence as this good year Of 1911.
We can not close this resume of the
building activity without referring to
the two very large buildings under way
for the Washington Steel & Iron Co.,
one 6Ox150 and the other 50x100.
The excavation for the foundations for
these two buildings is well under way
and is expected to be completed by
the end OF this week.

by Associated Press
Washington, Feb 1S.-An extra
session of congress looms very large
and probable tonight Unless Pred-
dent TAFT and the friends OF tho
Canadian reciprocity agreement are
able to bring more than ordinary
pressure to bear ON the senate and
avert the expenditure Of time by tho
opponents Of the agreement--or It's
friends--it Is difioult to see how tho
senate can reach vote before ad-
jOurnment.
Ahead of the Canadian agreement
Cor consideration, IN addition to the
general appropriation bills, are meas
ures affecting these subjects:
Tho popular election Of senator's.
Senator LOrlmer's case,
Permanent Tariff Board
General age pensions
Congressional appointments
The fertilization Of the Panan...
canal
Not one Of these can be sidetracked
without a contest. Back Of each Is Il
| group of determined senator's insist
ent that a vote be taken before ad-
Journment. Some of the measures
must be left unpassed or the Canadian
agreement will die. There is not time
enough for all
The general opinion now seems to
be that there will be an extra session.
and the only senators who are making
preparations to go home after March
lth are those whose service expires
on that date.
The argument advanced by con-
gress leaders In support OF the conten-
\ tlon that President Taft will call a
special session Is that the executive Is
determined to derive what benefit he
can from the changed conditions In
the house where the Democrats Will
be In control. and IN the senate. where
the Republican majority will be ma
terlally reduced by the retirement OF
1 several members opposing the admin
lstration program.

on "Wednesday the bill will be consd-
cred IN executive session and the con-
census of opinion Is that It will be
reported not later than Thursday. In
view of the short time that remains OF
