The outgoing municipal administra-

Town Hall Tuesday evening. After
passing bills and concluding the old
business before the council Mayor Lutz
swore in Mayor-elect E. /. Jones and
Councilmen-elect Graupner, Murphy

The new council will hold its first reg

is generally understood the plan is for
the new council to agree on the details
of license measure for the saloons, in
accordance with the stipulations of the
petition or statement circulated among
the business men previous to the local
option election. The ordinance will be
drafted, and by the suspension of the
rules, can be given three readings and
passage on the evening of the 17th.
There are now on file four applications
for licenses and another petition was
circulated in town this week for Spokane

Great Northern Blockaded in the Rockies

Since Sunday there has been no east
ern mail via the Great Northern, and
no trains have come through from ST..
Paul over the main line of the road. A
severe storm and temperature as low as
40 degrees below have prevailed in the
neihgborhood of the summit of the
Rockies. Four rotary plows and large
forces of men have been at work, but
have been able to accomplish
but little in the face of the
storm. Reports last night were that the
track could be cleared within "a hours
after the cessation of the storm.
Trains east have been routed over the
Northern Pacific from Standpoint to
Helena, and thence to the G.. N. main
line at Havre. One or two trains have
been routed west the same way, but
most of the trains through here west
bound have been turn-arounds from
Whitefsh.

ent at all deliberations on the matter.
The chairman of this committee in,the
senate is Whitney, of Spokane county,
and in the house, Stephens, of Spokane
county.
From present outlook the legislature
is going to accomplish its work smoothly
and there seems to be general disposi-
tion TO make the session as short as pos
sible.
Not only will much work be involved
in consideration of the wurkmen's
compensation act, but there will be pre-
sented public utilities bill and the mat
ter OF doing away with certain state
commissions and offices. Furthermore,
the work of legislative reapnortionment
will consume much time. 1t il expected
that the local option question will be
presented in some form or other.

Synopsis of Governer's Message

The Washington state legislature con-
vened at Olympia Monday by the elec-
ton of Senator Paulhamas, of Pierce
county, as president of the senate and
Howard D. Taylor, of Seattle. as speaker
of the house of representatives. Com
mittee appointments were made public
at once and the legislature established
new record in getting down to business
in hurry.
Governor M. E. Hav, in his annual
message to the legislature, makes the
following recommendation for changes
in the laws:
County unit instead of the present To-
cal option law and daylight liquor traf-
fc only in licensed territory.
Pubic service and public revenue
omissions instead of the present tax
and railroad commissions and insurance
commissioner.
Bureau of abor instead of labor COM
missioners, and an employees compen-
sation act.
Appointment OF supreme court judges
by the governor instead of electing them.
Power of recall for all elective officers.
Re-enactment of state aid road law,
naming it county aid law and strength
ening it; taxation of motor vehicles on
horsepower; raising the standard of
county engineers.
In committee appointments the Stey-
ems county representatives Jared we'll.
Spedden, hold-over member, got a
place on the important approx riations

Appleman, a new man, got place on the
committees on Counties and County
Boundaries, bikes and Drainage, Hos
pitfalls tor Insane and House Arrange
ments.
The committee ON Counties and Coun-
ty Boundaries is the one in which East

present. That Mr.. Appleman was able
to secure place on this committee is
fortunate in enabling him to be pres

APPOINTMENT IS CONFIRMED
Carl M. Johansen, Newport $
Next Postmaster
Years Business of Local Office

On the recommendation of Congress
man Miles Poindexter, President Taft
has forwarded the appointment of Carl
M. Johansen as postmaster at Newport
to the United States senate for confirma-
ton. Within short time Mr.. Johansen
will receive his commission and be pre-
pared to take over the duties of his office
That he will make competent offi-
cial is expected by the many friends MIR.
Johansen has made during his residence
in the town the past three years. AS
clerk at the Home Grocery he has al
ways been a prompt and obliging man
to deal with. and the sam qualifications
in the postal service will meet with the
approval of the patrons OF the office.
Postmaster Towle, who resigned his
office, is the owner of the building and
fixtures now used, and Mr.. Johansen
will arrange to lease or buy the fixtures
and will recon mend the renting of the
building for postoffice purposes.
III GulS COuucCtlOH d ICpOi WI IuO ouSi0
ness of the office will be of interest. Mr..
Towle reports that receipts of the office
from sale of stamps and stamped papers
for the year ending Dec. 81, 1910, were
$52O4.40. Domestic money orders
issued amounted to $46.741.72. Inter-
national money orders issued amounted
to SIT 7,68U.52. Number of registered let
ters dispatched, 1868. Number regis
tered letters received, 1875.
The receipts of the year show falling
off from the year ending Dec. 81, 1909,
of $588.S5. This falling off is attribut-
able to the fact that 1909 was the year
of the I. & w. N. down river construc-
ton. which created an unusual business
for the local postoffce.
Mr.. Towle leaves the Office with the
best wishes of Newport people and theiI
hope that his declining years may be
comfortable. He has given Newport
faithful service and his career as post
master is almost identical witch the life
of the town.
The Senate Yesterday confirmed the
nomination of Mr.. Johansen and as
soon as his bond is approved and the
commission arrives he will be ready to
take possession of the Office. *

The fight for county division is only
begun as yet. To get it we must stand
together and work for the best interests
of all. The people have shown by their

READY FOR THE LEGISLATURE
County Division Petition Goes
To Olympia
Carries About 1900 Signatures

The county division petition. which
will next week be presented to the leg
islature of Washington, together with
the bill asking the creation of the new
county, will contain in the neighborhood
of 1900 names. This is remarkable
showing of unanimity of sentiment, In
asmuch as only about 800 votes were
cast in the came territory at the general
election of November, 1910. True, the
women now haye the right to vote and
were given an opportunity to sign the
petition and many availed themselves of
the privilege, but not to exceed ~
per cent of the names on the petition
are those of women.
The executive committee, represent
ing the Commercial Clubs of Newport,
Usk, Cusick, lone and Metaline Falls.
met at Spokane last Saturday to con-
sider the bill which had been drafted
for submission to the legislature. The
bill. with some slight changes, which
were agreed upon by the committee, was
found acceptable to all towns and in
terests.
Fred L. Wolf, chairman Of the execu:
tive committee, and Fred Trumbull, OF
lone, the representative of that town on
the committee. left this afternoon
for Olympia, to spend some time in con-
ference with the Stevens county repre-.
sentatives in the legislature, and to pre-
sent the case of this section before the
committees and members of the legisla-
ture. They take with them the petition
and the bill and are also supplied with
the statistical information on which the
showing of the proposed county is based.
1t will be necessary to convince the leg
islature that county division is fully
warranted by existing facts and ccndi'
tions, and it is confidently believed that
the data is at hand to make good our
case. Others from the proposed county
will appear at Olympia later.
Further figures as to the ability OF
this side to take up self-govern.nen are
