BITUuTHIC STREET PAVING
GIVEN FINISHING TOUCH
A Substantial and Much Needed I'm
prOvement- BituIithiC one of the
Best Paving Materials

The Warren Bros. Construction Co.
is this week putting the finishing
touches 10 five blocks and several
street and alley crossings with Their
paving material. The grading and
surfacing was completed ten days age
but on account Of the delay in the ar
rival of the mixing plant the bitulithic
cement which is the binder that holds
the crushed rock together in one COM
pact mass, the contract was not COM
pleted until the last Of this week.
Now that the paving is completed oul
citizens are better satisfied even tho il
did cost more than some of the prop
erty owners counted on. The job is
first class and bids fair to last long
time without needing repairs.

COUNCIL DISCUSSES
THE WATER SYSTEM
Many Important Matters Taken up at
Regular Meeting of Council
tuesday Night

At the council meeting Tuesday
night the main item of discussion was
the water system which is now under
construction. A number OF extras
which had been overlooked in the or
iginal plan and specifications which will
amount to nearly $4,000 has been
causing the city fathers some grief but
the matter has been practically settled
and by the time the system is COM
pleted the whole cost will come inside
of $4,000, the amount for which the
bonds will be issued. Mayor Carl
quist appointed Councilmen Weigand.
Schubert and Robertson to act as a
committee with the city engineer and
contractors in settling all matters per-
tanning to extras on the system.
Seaman & Quigg, the contractors
who are building the water system have
agreed to furnish all the extras neces-
sary for the sum of $4500.
A temporary permit was granted the
city by A. H. Sylvester representing
the Forestry Department for running
the city pipe line over certain portions
of the Forestry reserve. No cutting
of trees will be allowed while going
thru the reserve and the plat showing
the route of the pipe line and its head
gate must be filed at the office OF the
department inside of ten days.
City Engineer Cooke submitted
plans and estimates and the assess
ments for the Improvements on Front
and Commercial streets and the clerk
was instructed to advertise for bids on
construction of the district which is
known as Improvement District No. 5.
The ordinance relating to Improve
ment District No. 8 was read and
adopted.
A threatening letter from former
city engineer Brown in regard to back
salary due him to the amount OF 800
was read in which he threatened legal
procedure if the money was not paid

eral things the council could not get

Judge McCoy's Decision Upheld

the decision Of Court Commissioner
Mccoy in the Leavenworth street pay
ing injunction suit, brought by the
railroad company and some Of the citi-
zens, and tried before Judge Mccoy,
who denied the right Of the petitioners
in decision rendered some four weeks
ago, was upheld by Superior Court
Judge Grimshaw before whom the mat
ter came on appeal last week. 1t is
doubtful if the matter will be taken to
a higher court.

troubles, their struggles and their
needs.
The people are beginning to appre-
ciate other things in connection with
the quality Of Governor Wilson. They
reflect that there is no reason to be-
lieve that, If elected, he will be capa-
BILE of managing the affairs OF the Am
erican people. He may have made a
good teacher, but to make a good
president Of the United States requires
man of larger calibre than he has
ever shown himself to be. 1t is not
every capable workingman who can
make good manager. AS has been
well said by Mr.. Pinchot in this con-
nection: I'VE have in the white
house now the most illustrious exam
pie now living OF the complete failure
of good hand to make good fore
man. No human being can tell
whether Wilson, if he were to be
elected president, would make good or
not"
And, finally, even supposing the
democratic candidate, if elected, were
to seek to carry out his academic
views, what chance would he have of
doing SOP What can he accomplish
in face of the position Of the reaction
aries who are more accomplished and
capable and experienced in public at
fairs than he, and who are bitterly op-
posed to him in most Of the things
that he promises to recommend Who
expects him to be more than figure
head even if he attain to the presiden-
tial chair2 He is not the sort of man
who can force things through. Roose-
welt was, and is, such a man. The
big stick" forced progressive legisla-
ton in the interest OF the people from
reactionary Congress. There is no
experiment about Roosevelt.
And so, Taft out Of the running, the
people of the United States are COM
pairing the two men left. They are
weighing them in the balance; the
scales are out and in use everywhere,
and Wilson is uptilted. He is not
heavy enough for the place to which
he aspires and the news from all parts
of the country is now sufficiently il
Illuminating to show that the people ap-
preciate the fact.
To give more definitely the --latest
and best estimate Of the situation in
states where changes have beer
marked, it may be said that Roosevelt
and Johnson will carry Michigan by
$4,000 plurality. Kansas will be car
RED by the Progressives. The ticket
will receive 100000 plurality in Cali
fornia. In Indiana the republican
ticket will run a poor third. The
Roosevelt sentiment in that state is
growing wonderfully. In Illinois
Roosevelt's indicated plurality is over
100000 and the state ticket is little il
any behind it.
In the southern states the situation
is excellent. In Arkansas the Pro.
gressive ticket will hold large per
centage OF the confederate soldier
votes. In Alabama the minimum will
be $4,000. Georgia democrats con
cede that the Progressives will have
third OF the total votes. Wyom'
ing, Montana, Colorado and Oregon al
are virtually certain to be carried by
the Progressives.
We are having enormous crops ano
prosperity this year. The thing viii
be repeated in November in the enor'
nous Progressive vote and the conse'
quent prosperity to be passed
around" That is the outlook. Me
dill Mccormick. Vice Chairman Pro-
gressiye National Committee.

ITEMS OF INTEREST
FROM THE NORTHWEST

In answer to the attack made upon
the state tax commission, when it in
structed the assessor Of Chelan county,
as we'll as assessors in other counties OF
the state, to assess fruit trees for taxa
ton, despite the fact that the 1908
Legislature passed an act to the effect
that such fruit trees should be exempt,
the commission has issued a statement
giving its side of the matter. The
question hinges on the construction OF
the law and by whom construed. The
board, in holding that fruit trees are
subject to taxation just as any other
private property, calls attention to the
decisions of the supreme court as to
what constitutes private property, and
says that fruit trees are as much private
property as threshing machines, plows
or horses, and that the Legislature was
without authority to pass this exemp-
ton law. In letter to all the assess
ors of the state last February the COM
mission wrote in part as follows:
1--WE advise you that fruit trees, be-
ing private property, are not exempt
from taxation in this state. You ought
to assess the land upon which the fruit
trees stand with regard to its value.
Whatever value is added to the land
by the fruit trees being thereon must
be included. This rule has been fol-
lowed in some Of the fruit raising
counties and disregarded in others, and
we desire now to make this a specific
instruction to all assessors to the end
that the property of each county will
be uniformly and equally assessed and
taxed"
