Facts About the City's Needs.

The City Flaming Exhibition at the Public Ii
brary offers the taxpayers an excellent opportunity
to get accurate scientifically prepared Information
about this citys needs and how to meet them. 1t
is to be hoped they will take full advantage OF IT,
With all its vast expenditures Of money and all the
resources in the way of study and disinterested
advice supplied by few experts, New York CITY
is not so well governed as many municipalities
less well off. This is largely because its people at
election times are too busy with personalities to
think Of principles and means of government, and
too busy all the rest Of the year meeting the rent
and the grocers bills to much what the officials
do, 50 long they don't steal all there is in the
treasury.
This exhibition will give people here chance to
compare our municipal methods with those of other
cities in this country and abroad. \ basis for com
parison is an excellent stimuant for thought Such
taking OF thought ought TO result in more intelligent
interest in public affairs the part Of the voters
themselves. That Of itself would render more
easy intelligent work for city betterment both rs
to its immediate needs and the needs of the future
which thoughtful city planning is designed to meet

caught for actually squeezing campaign contribu-

complete his bargain with the corporation. he had

get advantageous contracts from the state if only it
paid this campaign contribution to his party and
gave him his commissions. Fowler In compelling
the contractor Hull to make his contributions, is
said TO have told him his work would not be passed
by the highway inspectors unless he did, but they
would be friendly if he yielded.
If the contractorpolitician blackmail game or the

comparative equanimity and the cordial hope that
they'd soon get tired of feeding each other and

rested at TahoIa With Counter.
feiters Outfit

Frank Walton and Cleveland John
son, Indians, and Linley Flower, a
white man, all under "a years of age,
we're brought here last week from
Taholah by a deputy United States
marshal and taken before United
States Commissioner Dan Pearsall,
on charges of counterfeiting, who
held them in $4,000 bail each for
trial in the federal court. A deputy
United States marshal who made the
arrest at Taholah took the prisoners
to Tacoma after their examination.
The outfit, which was found in the
mems possession, was seized and
taken to Tacoma for evidence. 1t is
not thought the men had an oppor.
tunity cooperate to any extent before
their arrest. The men had excellent
plaster casts in which to cast silver
dollars.

WRECK PROVES PROFITABLE
Purchasers Of the Wrecked Schoone,
Balboa Are Saving Much Prop
erty. May Save Hull

1t now is considered the wreck Of
the schooner Balboa will yield much
more profit to the buyer than was al
first supposed. Owing to the good
weather, the parties who bought the
wreck have been able to take away
everything movable except the an
chors and chains, which are expect
ed to be removed within the next few
days. The donkey engine, valued at
500, has been brought ashore. From
the $3.50 paid for the wreck the pur-
chasers may realize several thousand
dollars. If the wreck holds together
in good shape until milder weather
an attempt will be made to get the
hull off the beach. II this should be
accomplished it will be worth at least
$4,000.

ACCURATE DELIVERY

The Merchants Delivery Co. stood
the test of Christmas delivery splen'

the new system to cope with rush
conditions such as last week, and the
managers and stores are highly pleas
ed with the results.
On Christmas Eve, the company
handled $50 orders between 8:45 a
m. and 6:45 p. M, with a solitary mis-
take being reported. The system Ii
becoming popular with both mer
chants and customers.

SETTLING BUTCHER CASE

A balance of $500 in assets remain.
ing from the butcher bankruptcy
case, in which street contract work
in Aberdeen was involved, will be
left to Referee w. H. Tucker to set
tie between the creditors and the
bonding company. The bonding com
pany has won out on all other con-
tentions but the creditors are fight
ing for the few remaining assets. The
city lost nothing by the bankruptcy
and the bonding company will about
break even. The creditors of Dutch
er, local men who put up cash on
the contracts, will be the losers.
