Trout Season Open May I

The trout fishing season in Chelan
county will open May /. This is di-
rect information from the state fish
commissioner, ]. L. Riseland, at Bell
ingham. None of the state or county
officials appeared to know what the law
was on the subject.
The fact is there was no change in
the law at the last session, as far as
game and fish are concerned. Author
ity has been given to the county com
missioners to close for two years lakes
and streams where game fish have been
planted. Imported game birds are pro-
tected until 1912.
The open season for deer is from
September / to November /, and fe-
males and. spotted fawn are protected
at all times.
The new law provides that all fisher
men shall provide themselves with a
license, at a cost of 81, which gives
them permission to hunt in the county.
County Auditor Gellatly is prepared to
issue licenses to all who apply, except
aliens, who are excepted because they
may not carry guns without special
license from the state.

Wenatchee's star outfelder, Ames,
who will be remembered by all the old
Leavenworth fans as the only man who
ever lifted one over the center field
fence, passed through here Tuesday
afternoon on his way to Wenatchee.
Mr.. Ames has been playing ball down
in Texas all winter, near the border
line, and has witnessed several Skin
mish fights between the federals and
instructors. He says he is in great
shape for ball playing, having played
all winter, and expressed a desire to
come to this place. There are lot
of fans who would like to see Ames
with our bunch this year, and Manager
Hoxsey would get good man if he
could sign him.

WASHINGTON STEEL & IRON co.
Construction Work on Plant viii Begin the
Latter Part of This Month-Announoe
General Manager Rothert

A walk down to the site Of the plant
Of the Washington Steel and Iron Com
pany, just east Of the corporate limits
of the town, one morning the first Of
this week revealed the fact that the
manager, E. H. Rothert, and civil en-
gineer with helpers were busy locating
the lines Of the company's land.
Mr.. Rothert stated that an architect
would be here the first of rext week to
prepare the plans Of the different build
ings TO be erected. The architect was
here last week and made general OBJ
servations OF the lay of the ground.
Mr.. Rothert further stated that he hoped
to have things in readiness to 60 10
work on the buildings by the last Of
this month, and that construction work
would be rushed with as much dispatch
as all the circumstances would permit.
An application will be made to the
Great Northern Railroad Company at an
early date for a spur track to run into
the steel company's grounds, so that
construction materials can be handled
with dispatch and economy. To com
plete the plant will require from five TO
six months, so that it is not likely ore
will be smelted before October or No
vember. Quite large crew of men
will be employed in the construction of
the plant, so that Leavenworth's payroll
will be augmented several thousand
dollars per month. Just how many
men will be employed in the plant
after it is ready for operation we have
not been told. but it is believed that
the number will be not less than fifty,
with probability Of an increase.
The company filed with the county
auditor this week on 5000 cubic feet
of water per second out of the Wenat-
chez river. The company owns the
land on both sides of the river, with an
unusually fine site to build dam for
the purpose of developing water power.
Of the water power is
at an early date.

THE BRIDGE TAX MUST Be PAID
The Board Of County Commissioners Mon
day Decided Adversely to the Remission
of the Columbia Bridge Taxes

The county commissioners went on
record Monday as opposed to any re-
bate or annulment of the taxes on the
Columbia river bridge assessed against
the Washington Bridge Company, said
the World.
The matter was presented to the
county commissioners by Commercial
Club committee consisting Of John A.
Gellatly, Peter M'Gill and c. A. Harris.
The committee put up the argument
Of the bridge being public utility,
open to the use Of the public since its
completion, and asked that friendly
suit be instituted against the county for
rebate of the tax to $50, the total
amount OF the tax being something like
$4,000.
The commissioners. however, would
not be party to any such proceeding,
and notified the committee that they
did not favor any reduction whatever
in the tax, they believing the bridge
was built purely as business PROPOSE
ton, and as a result Of the bridge
private corporation had made big money
in the watering and sale Of private land,
and believed that the company should
pay its proportion of the taxes just the
same as any private individual, and re-
fused the request.
This matter Of the annulment of the
bridge tax was called to the attention
of the Commercial Club some time last
month. 1t was presented first to the
directors, and they refused to favor the
cancellation Of the tax. 1t was then
brought up at the general monthly
and by vote a committee
was instructed to appear before the
county commissioners on behalf Of the
measure.

Bought Chikamin Hotel

A Wenatchee paper says: ]. Leigh
Campbell, formerly county clerk, has
purchased the Chikamin hotel of Leav-
enworth from W. E. Moore. This hos
telry is one of the best known along the
road, and it is expected Mr.. Campbell
will maintain its reputation.
Mr.. Campbell and wife have been
residents of this city (Wenatchee) for
the past four years and made many
friends here. The good wishes of the
Wenatchee people go with them to
their new home.

ANOTHER BRICK BLOCK
Paul Weigand Viii Build on the Corner of
Front and Eighth Streets


1t was announced last week by The
Echo that Messrs. Adams and Jacobsen
had bought the corner opposite the
Tumwater bank and would probably
erect a building. Messrs. Adams and
Jacobsen had an option on the ground,
but allowed il to lapse, and Mr.. Wei
gand secured the lot, which is consid-
cred one OF the best sites for a busi-
ness block in the town, and will put up
a building the full size Of the lot, which
is 30x110, two stories in height, with
basement.
Plans for the building are being
drawn and work will begin in two or
three weeks. The ground floor is rent
ed, but the name of the tenant was not
given out. The building is to be first
class and to compare favorably with the
best yet erected.
Two brick buildings, the Fitz and
the Elliott blocks, are under way. The
work on the walls was begun this week.
Two other brick buildings are being
considered. One on Front street and
one on Commercial street. Before the
summer is over it is quite possible that
a half dozen or even more may be
erected

LOVE THE HAWAIIAN ISLES
Revelation to Persons From the North Says
Fred Reeves

A Wenatchee newspaper says: MI
and Mrs. Fred Reeves returned Satur
day afternoon from their honeymoon
trip to the Hawaiian Islands. They
arrived in San Francisco March IA or
the return trip, and in Seattle Sunday.
Two days were spent in Leavenworth
visiting Mrs. Reeves mother and
brother.
THE visit to the islands was one oi
revelation said Mr.. Reeves. To a
person from the north the islands appear
very beautiful, though it is to be doubt
ed very seriously whether or not the
scenery compares with that right here
in Chelan county.
Honolulu is a city Of beautiful
homes, containing population OF about
$4,000 inhabitants. However, to one
visiting the city and travelling through
the residence district thereof, it would
appear to be city of 100000 people.
The yards are all large, looking like
beautiful gardens, and but few of them
have frontage OF less than 800 feet
and many of them contain an acre or
more.
The population consists chiefly OF
Japanese and natives, with few China
men now and then, located in some
favorite spot for making money. The
white population amounts to less than
5000 in the entire city.
Considerable excitement existed in
Honolulu because of the outbreak of
Asiatic cholera. The disease, however,
was confined entirely to the natives in
the poor and dirty portion of the city,
and all OF the deaths were among that
class. Tourists on the islands who
were stopping at the good hotels had
no trouble in escaping quarantine after
they became properly organized. The
showing made by the tourists was done
by going before a magistrate in Homo
lulu and showing their place of resi-
dence for a period of ten days before
the date of sailing OF the several steam
vessels and by further showing that
they had not been in the part of the
city where cholera existed. Upon this
proof first-class passengers were booked
for sailing, but no second-class or steer
age passengers were received. This
was accepted by the quarantine officials
at San Francisco and the passengers
were allowed to land from the several
boats; but not until all had been kept
uneasy for four or five hours.
Upon landing at the wharf in Hon
olulu we were met by l. ]. Bailey Of
this city, and the next day met Douglas
Mackay of the Lamb-Davis Lumber
Company of Leavenworth, who imme-
diately returned to the mainland. Soon
thereafter we met Mr.. and Mrs. H. E.
King of Leavenworth. -

Ol,,ro,,;a mil 1911

Olympia, April ,, lSI1.-
1t has been held by Attorney General
Bell that the Washington Bridge Com
pany must pay the witnesses who were
summoned in the case, as the company
had agreed to pay all the costs in the
suit. The Legislature put through a
resolution authorizing the purchase Of
the bridge before the case was settled.
The Washington Bridge Company stip-
ulated that no further action would be
taken at that time. No mention was
made in the stipulation as to the costs
which the bridge company had agreed
to pay, and now some Of the witnesses
who were called are seeking to collect
their mileage and per diem. The at
torney general says the bridge company
must pay the witnesses, and the matter
is entirely out of the courts hands at
the present time.

Reports from the various fruit districts
predict crop of apples for 1911 one
third larger than last years. An early
spring has hurt peaches in some sec
tons; but in the main the soft fruit
prospects are good. Such indications
are causing the growers to give consid-
erable hard thought to the projected
Central Selling Agency. In the main
the proposal is gaining more converts
every day. This is particularly true as
the real import of the movement be-
comes better known. Some districts
are hanging back because of petty dif-
ferences. Even if all of them do not
come in this year, it is certain they will
join hands next year. Proper distribu-
ton is the purpose Of the organization.
1t is intended primarily to protect the
interests of the producer, thereby safe
guarding the legitimate dealer against
speculative uncertainties and insuring
more reasonable prices to the consumer.
Such an organization does not contem-
plate an improper control of the mar
kets or to operate in restraint OF trade.

Mallet mountain-climbing freight loco
motives to haul its heavily-loaded trains
over the Cascade mountains. One OF
these motive machines can draw A
cars of As tons each out of Seattle and
over the Cascades with little assistance.
This power is the marvel of operating
departments of railroads in the level
countries. A train two city blocks long
can be pulled at the rate Of IS miles an
hour. This innovation marks notable
progress in railroading. The Santa Fe
is the only other Western road using

The old rule which presumed preju-
dice of jurors if prejudice was possible,
and the supposition that juror would
never do his duty if he had chance to
do otherwise, has been changed by a
decision of the supreme court affirming
the conviction OF George L. Pepoon by
the superior court Of Stevens county
and upholding his sentence OF life i'm
prisonment for wife murder, to a new
rule by which it is now presumed that
Jurors will do their duty and that preju-
dice must be shown and not presumed
if a new trial is to be granted. Some
magazines were allowed to reach the
Jurors who convicted Pepoon, and it
was on this ground that new trial was
sought. The adoption of this new rule
puts the supreme court in line with the
federal courts on this subject, and
Washington among the foremost states
in the Union in the line Of criminal
jurisprudence.

To arouse greater interest in the prac-
tical and ethical benefits OF growing
ornamental and useful trees and shrubs,
Governor Hay Of Washington has des-
ignated April 13 as Arbor Day. A
general observance of the day is urged,
and commercial organizations are giving
it their support in the more progressive
communities. 1t is pointed out that in
the treeless parts Of Eastern Washington
farmers would find trees useful. Nut
trees would prove advantageous and do
we'll in many sections. Arbor Day gets
much attention in the East and It is
time the West paid more attention to 1t.
