ELECTRIC INTERURBAN
LINE NOW ASSURED
{. J. Felt, Promoter of the W. v. R. & P.
Co. Sells 81 ,OOO,OO Worth OfBonds

One million dollars worth Of bond:
to be used in constructing the electric
line from Wenatchee to Leavenworth
have been sold, according to Mr.. Felt,
OF the Wenatchee Valley Railway &
Power Co. He declares the line will
be in operation within fourteen to
eighteen months unless the unforeseen
happens.
Mr.. Felt refuses to say who purchas-
ed the bonds, but states that the only
conditions which must be met before
the money is transferred are securing a
franchise in the city Of Wenatchee and
obtaining a right Of way so far as it can
be done without condemnation suits.
Application for a franchise in Wenat-
chez will be made soon. The Wenat-
chez Valley Traction company formerly
held a franchise but it was forfeited
several weeks ago.
Mr.. Felt expects to meet with OBJ
struc.ive tactics by the Great Northern
Railway but says he is prepared to force
the fight and anticipates winning a
speedy victory.
1t is considered likely that some Of
the owners Of private right of way will
hold out for an exorbitant settlement
but it is believed that when they realize
the benefits they will derive from an
electric line past their doors, how
much they can save hauling their fruit
to and from the shipping stations
and how much more convenient it will
be along with the increased valuation
Of their property, that they will be more
reasonable.
The building OF the interurban line
means much to the residents Of the
valley and they are all eagerly looking
forward to its completion.

Kegiey Says Grange is Against laFolIette

Representative w. L. LaFollette
will not get the support Of the farmers
in the coming election, according to
c. B. Kegley, master Of the state
grange, because he introduced a bill
for one-cent postage on irst-class mat
ter. 1t is alleged by Kegley that the
aim OF the men who are boosting one
cent postage is to create further de-
ficit in the postofice department SO
that parcels post can not be adopted at
present. The national grange has a
legislative committee in Washington,
D. c., and Kegley believes he should
have consulted it before he introduced
his bill.

Numerous press bureaus have been
organized, and are operating from
Washington, the purposes OF which are
to exploit candidates, or to pull political
chestnuts out Of the FIRE, through use
of the press of the country. This kind
OF Job is becoming more difficult
each year, as the editors are no longer
permitting the free use Of their columns
for this purpose, but it is found that
they prefer to give to their readers un-
biased Washington gossip, such as is
supplied BY the regularly organ
lied press associations, operated on a

The country must resign itself to
the fact that for the next few months
there will be noise even louder than
that of the cats holding midnight ses-
sions in the back yards, and it is to
concern that always unsettled question
of the tariff. It is doubtful whether
ever. in the history Of the country
more expert tariff doctors ever wrangled
over the tariff patient than are sitting or
the case at this moment in the national
capital.

NEWS ITEMS FROM
THE NATIONS CAPITAL
Concerning the Law Makers and Events
of Importance

Over eight thousand people passed
before the president on New Years
day, and Mr.. Taft gave to each cordial
greeting and hearty handshake. The
newspapers described the annual event
as one of brilliance and grandeur, and
carried glowing accounts of the wealth
Of gold braid of the military, the gilt
and tassel Of the diplomatic corps, and
the rich gowns Of the ladies who linger
about the American court" Your
correspondent took place in the line
that extended for blocks outside the
White House grounds, and moved for
ward with two colored laborers in front
and a number Of shabbily dressed
Italian children Immediately following.
1t took two hours to reach the presi-
dent, after passing through lines OF
officers and secret service men who
were searching out suspicious characters.
The White House never looked better,
and the music of the Marine band ad-
ded the finishing touch of the artistic
and beautiful to the resplendant scene,
where the rich and poor, the great and
the humble, the powerful and the weak,
passed along, quite equal under the
laws of the most democratic country on
earth. Mrs. LaFollette has written one
of the best accounts of the reception
and it occupied only a quarter OF a
column. The closing sentence OF her
description of the event reads: We
spend an hour, but as we pass out we
see the long line Of people still waiting
to shake hands with their president. "
Congressman Lindbergh, Of Mime
sofa, has renewed his attacks upon the
money trust" and has an ally in no
less a person than Samuel Untermyer,
OF New York. The thing about Unter-
meyer that appeals is the fact that he
tells how this great trust operates.
Mostly everybody has more or less
fault to find with money trusts" and
with bankers and credit men who will
not trust" but the scope of Mr.. Lind
bergh's proposed investigation is COW
cred in a measure by the probes already
under way affecting individual trusts.
To comprehend the whole problem
suggested by the Minnesota congress
man would be job quite equal to a
search for the lost Pleiades. Untermyer,
however, is more definite, and asserts
that in reality it is not trust that ne
is after. He would con6ne the scope
Of the inquiry to finding out the extent
TO which national banks and the trust
companies are under the control OF the
money powers, and the reasons why the
competition between great and small
bankers is practically non est, and the
financial system that has brought US to
such plight.
