GREAT NORTHERN TRAINS
ARE DELAYED BY SLIDES
Few Trains Have Been on Time in Past
Two Weeks-MOst of the Trouble
is in the Rockies

A big slide Of snow and rock which
occurred just west Of Cascade Tunnel
last Saturday blocked the train service
over the mountains for about forty
eight hours. The trains of that day
as we'll as Sunday trains which de-
toured around by Portland. The slide
however was cleared away late Sunday
night and service was resumed by sew
eral Of the night trains Monday morn
ing. While it is believed that there
will be very little more trouble with
snow slides in the vicinity of the tun-
mel there is still some danger of rock
slides and every precaution is being
taken by the railroad officials. There
is still from six to eight feet Of snow
at the summit and it is said to be
melting very rapidly.
The past two weeks the Great North
ern has been having considerable trou-
BILE in the Rocky mountains near Gla-
cier Park where big piles Of snow had
drifted across the track.

Their First Log Wednesday After
noon-CapaciB 10000 Daily

The new lumber mill which has
been under construction the past two
months was practically completed this

THE BIG [. D. MILL
STARTED THIS WEEK
viii be in Full Running Order Nexl
Monday-Monday Following viii
Begin Running Night and Day

Owing to the delay in the arrival OF
two new edgers which were tied up
in the snow blockade in the Rockies
several days last week the big mill did
not atari the machinery until yesterday
when the machinery was tried out, and
the following day was again devoted to
trimming the new equipment, tighten
ing belts and making the hundred Of
little adjustments that are necessary
before everything is in full running
shape.
Next Monday, however, the mill
will begin running with full compile
ment of men for the day shift, and on
Monday following, or April IA, the
mill will begin running night and day.
A large amount of labor saving ma
chinery has taken the place of men SO
that the mill will be operated more
economically but will be able to make
a larger turnout of lumber every twenty
four hours.

Arrested for Selling Tobacco to Miners

Three pool room owners were ar
rested in Cashmere Monday morning
charged with selling tobacco to minors.
One OF them is said to have sold ciga-
rettes to girls. When arraigned in
court in Wenatchee Tuesday the de-
PENDANTS were represented by A. H.
Mohler, Mayor Of Cashmere who argued
that his clients were trying to enforce
the law in regard to selling tobacco to
minors, but in some cases minors had
misrepresented their ages which was
true in this case. A fine Of SO and
costs was the fine imposed by Judge
Mccoy. Mayor Mohler charged that
the prosecution was the result of agita-
ton by the w. C. T. U. Of Cashmere.

THE POSTAL SAVINGS
BANKS MAKE GOOD
Report Shows Condition, and Recon-
mendation to Buy Telegraph
Lines

The experiences of the postal saw
ings banks are described in Post
master General Hitchcock's annual re-
port. Mr.. Hitchcock calls attention
to the fact that there are now l2,-
812 repositories with about 100000
depositors and about % million dol
lars in deposits. He adds: "On
the basis of the present monthly net
increase Of deposits it is estimated that
the gross income of the postal savings
system for the fiscal year ending June
June 80, 1918, will amount to $780,
900, and the interest payable to de-
positors to 100000. The cost Of
supplies and equipment and the sala-
ries of clerks at the central Office dur
ing this period will aggregate about
S425, 900, and to this amount should be
added approximately $275,000, repre-
senting compensation for the time oi
post Office clerks employed on postal
savings work. Thus it will be seen
that the estimated income of the sys-
tenn for the fiscal year will meet the
amount Of interest payable as we'll as
the total expenses of the central office,
but will not be large enough to cover
also the cost of the clerical work in
postoffices. 1t is expected that when
the deposits have increased to $780,
100000, which at the present rate. they
will soon do, the system will be self
sustaining" Among the recommen-
dations for legislation are these: That
the postage on second class matter be
increased from one to two cents a
pound. That the third and fourth
classes OF mail be consolidated, so that
the parcel post shall cover all merchan-
disc. That the use Of the ranking
privilege be limited to the mailing oi
official correspondence and such speech
es and documents as are printed by Or
der Of congress. That the restrictions
on the amount that may be accepted
under the postal savings system from
one depositor be removed, with the pro-
viso that interest shall not be paid on
more than $1,000. That fraud investi-
cations be transferred to the depart
ment of justice. Mr.. Hitchcock renews
his recommendation that the telegraph
lines be made part of the postal system.

Income Tax

Just what Congress will do with re-
spect to the income tax is something
everyone is now trying to ascertain. It
has been suggested that fiat tax of l
per cent, or possibly . per cent, be
levied on all incomes in excess of a
certain amount. 1t has been sug-
gested that the income tax be grad
uated from / per cent TO 5 or 10 or
even so per cent. 1t has been sug-
gested that the incomes under S3, 500
a year be exempt. Others would make
the limit 81, 900 or $1,000. Some of
the members of the Ways and Means
Committee want the fiat tax and others
want a graduated tax. Many have ia
vored taxing incomes over $4,000 on
the basis of per cent for all in ex-
cess Of this sum. A Congressman or
other citizen, therefore, with salary oi
81, 500 would pay per cent on $3,-
500. or s35 a year; at Q per cent he
would pay $40 year.
The Ways and Means Committee
has been figuring on this problem with
the aid OF experts who have been COM
putting the amount of income the nat
ional treasury will receive from the
tariff, as proposed in the new sched-
ules. When the probable amount oi
income has been determined, the COM
mittee will decide on what form the in
come tax feature will be modelled. 1t
is understood that the income tax will
be made to bring in whatever sum the
tariff, the corporation tax and the in
ternal revenue tax fail to provide.

CITY MAY PURCHASE THE
7. LIGHT & WATER SYSTEM
]. B. Adams Offers to Sell His Water
System to City for S,O63.O5-MII
Take up Matter at Next Meeting

The most important matter taken up
by the city council at the meeting on
Tuesday evening was the TumwateI
Light & Water Company's proposition
to sell to the city their water sys-
tenn for the sum of S8,063.05. This
includes what is commonly known as
the distribution system and in addition
to this Mr.. Adams stated that the COM
pany would turn over their contract
with the Lamb-Davis Lumber Co.,
which provides for the pumping oi
water into the mains at any time when
there might be a shortage. An effort
was made at this meeting to put thru
an ordinance which had been prepared
for the purchase of the system, but il
was strenuously objected to by several
of the members who did not believe in
too hasty action. On motion by Mr.:
Anderson it was decided to lay the
matter over until next Tuesday night
when it is believed the council will
either accept or reject the water COM
pany's offer.
An ordinance creating special fund
to be known as the water fund, into
which all revenue from the city's sys-
TEN will go was read for the first time
and passed.
A letter to the council, signed "A
Taxpayer, in which he criticised coun-
cips action in putting on another mar
shal, was read, and after some discussion
tabled indefinitely. 1t was the opinion
OF the council that a communication
from a man who was afraid to sign his
name was unworthy of notice.
A communication from large num-
Der Of property owners on Whitman
street asking that the proposed i'm
provements in that district be held up
was presented and the requests OF the
petitioners granted.
The ordinance for the improvement
of Cascade street by grading, draining
and laying sidewalks was read for the
first time.
Dee Fisher asked permission to erect
brick building on Front Street be-
tween the Raineer Cafe and the Jap
restaurant. 1t is understood that Mr..
Fisher intends to put in shooting
gallery.

The New Nickel

One OF the expiring fiickers of the
present regime at Washington was the
issuance a short time ago of an enor-
nous batch Of nickels with very ef-
fective new design, something quite
different from the familiar wreath sur
rounded numeral and star encircled
head. The new coin was modelled by
the well known sculptor and medalist,
]. E. Fraser Of New York.
On one side is the head of a Chey-
enne Indian chief, the single feather
and braided hair indicating a time OF
peace. The head is in profile, show
ing the striking outline characteristic
Of the North American Indian-that
profile that, curiously enough, is seen
in the portraits OF such widely diver
gent non-Indian types as Dante, Savo-
narola. George Eliot, Prof. David
Swing and John McCutcheon.
The reverse side of the new nickel
is buffalo, also in profle-not, how
ever, so successful an achievement as
the Indian head. The cutting is deep
and rugged, following the latest vogue
Of medalists in Italy and France, who
in turn are modelling their work on the
coins Of antiquity.
Our artists can never hope to pro-
duce such beautiful coins as those OF
ancient Greece and Rome. In those
days they did not have to consider
stacking their money, nor adapting it
for use in slot machines.
The first attempt to make American
coins artistic was undertaken by Presi-
dent Roosevelt, who took the design
ing of some new mintage away from
the regularly employed, unframed fed
eral engraver and called in St. Gau-
dens. Since then various sculptors
have been given the task of designing
the new coins as occasion arose.
By our present laws the designs oi
any OF our coins cannot be changed
oftener than every twenty-five years.
The new nickel has one interesting
innovation in that the sculptor's initial
visible only under the strongest mag
nifying glass-can be found under the
8 in 1918. Up to now this honor has
been denied our American artists, but
that most effective of all modern coins,
the French franc, and other French
coins bear the sculptor's name in full,
so it was decided to cede an initial
letter to American designers.
