FOR COUNTY AUTOMOBILE CLUB
Organization Should BE Formed in
Dickinson SOunty.

A Dickinson County Automobile
club should be formed in this coun-
ty. During the past few months
clubs have been formed in almost
every county of the state and the
owners of cars in the respective
counties will work together for the
good of the auto owner. The state
auto tax is due the first of the
month and in Dickinson county over
$4,000 new money is to be turned
into the county treasury for the
use Of road work. The new law
states the money is to be used on
the roads of the county and the
owners who pay the tax are organic
ed and will see how the money lie
spent. In many of the counties the
fund has been divided up, a GER
tain sum set aside for the work OF
certain roads each year and it will
be but a short time until the roads
over Kansas will be as fine as can
be found any place in the west.

ION the contrary" said Doctor

so, that this was marked and in
q bulletin which medical consultants
issued, we made the statement that

fact during the time we had him

"He was as moderate a drinker as

Chicago, were read as confirming
the testimony of Doctor Lambert
that while at Mercy hospital in
Chicago, suffering from the bullet
wound, Colonel Roosevelt showed
no signs of having been an Excess
sive user of alcoholic liquor. Doc
tor Murphy testified he was called
to attend Colonel Roosevelt octo-
Der IA, 1919, after Colonel Roose-
welt was shot at Milwaukee,
Doctor Murphy gave five reasons
for saying that, Colonel Roosevelt
did not use liquor, as follows;
"The absence of alcoholic odor on
his breath.
"The absence Of enlargement OF
the liver.
"The absence Of tremor OF his
hands in this period.
''The absence of bile.
"He had to have no stimulants
of any kind during the progress OF
his case and his nervous system was
evenly balanced"

that he had paid no attention to

z TOWNSHIPS IN WHITE
RIVER GAME PRESERVE
The Natural Breeding Place of the Noun
tain Goat to Be PrOteCted-NO
More Hunting There

The action taken by the Chelan
County Game Commission will in the
future protect from hunters the noun
tain goat in what practically amounts
to two townships on the head of White
river, northwest OF Wenatchee lake.
The last Legislature gave the commits
sion power to do this. 1t will be un-
lawful to hunt game Of any kind within
the boundary for a term Of three years
and hunters will do well to heed the
warning here given publicity. 1t is
the intention of the game wardens of
the county to post notices and keep
strict watch for poachers. Following
is the boundary of the preserve:
Beginning at Buck Creek Pass on
the county boundary line and the sum-
nit of the Cascade Mountains; thence
southeasterly down Buck Creek to its
junction with the Chewawa river;
thence in a general southerly direction
along the east slope of the divide be-
tween White river drainage and Che
wawa river drainage to Schaefer Lake;
thence west to the North Forth Of
White River; thence down the North
Fork to its junction with the main fork
OF White River to the first large creek
coming into it from the East above
Boulder Creek; thence northwesterly
up said creek to the summit OF the
Cascade Mountains and along the
county boundary line to Buck Creek
Pass, the place Of beginning.

The Echo containing the announce
ment made its appearance Friday
morning at s o'clock. By Saturday
evening twenty-seven lots had been
sold. The sale was so satisfactory that
Messrs. Hamilton & Peake opened
their hearts and made proposition to
give the town eight acres for park pur-
poses. The only condition attached
to the offer is that the city extend
the water mains to the addition. AS
the city's mains run right by the
property there is no doubt that the
offer will be accepted. The property
is within walking distance Of the main.
part of town and would make an
ideal ball park. The entire 1876 lots
will be sold within ten days at the way
they are going now. Have you seen

COUNCIL BUYS EXTRA
LOT FIRE EQUIPMENT
Two Petitions from Property Owners
Asking for Extension of City
Water Mains

Few matters of interest came be-
fore the council at their meeting Tues
day evening. After reading several
letters from firms having fire equip
ment for sale the clerk was instructed

Hamilton & Peake, agents for the
new Grand View Addition presented
a proposition offering to donate certain
properties for park purposes, but on
motion it was decided to lay the
matter over until the next meeting un-
til the councilmen, engineer and
street commissioner could make an in
vestigation and find what the cost Of
the improvements would be.
A petition from property owners in
east Leavenworth was read asking that
the council extend a pipe line into
their district. The matter was turned
over to the water committee, the water
commissioner and the engineer with
instructions to bring in a report as to
the cost of the installation Of the pipe,
and also the revenue that would be
derived from the same. A petition
from property owners in Stafords ad-
dition was presented asking that a
water main be laid on Evans street.
This petition was also turnEl o7e- to

COST IS REDUCED IN
PARCEL POST SERVICE
Rates Go Down and Size of Packages
Up Under New POstOffiCe Rule

Local postal officials are in receipt Of
an order from Postmaster General Bur
leson regarding parcel post regulations,
which is expected to cause an enor-
nous increase in the business of the
local Office by the middle of August.
So great decrease in the cost and
such an increase in the size of the
packages has been permitted that
local firms are making inquiries which
promise a greater loss to the express
companies. The weight of packages
in the local first and second zones has
been raised from II pounds to 20
pounds as maximum. The scale that
has been given out makes an increase
of so miles in zone /, or 100 miles;
and $50 miles in zone Q, or 800 miles
in all.
lSy the new rules such cities as
Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Walla Walla,
North Yakima, Ellensburg, those as
far as the British Columbia line, are
now within the second zone and in
clude a maximum Of 30 pounds in
stead Of II as formerly. The rates are
about one-half what the were for II
pounds at the extreme points in the
second zone.
AS an example 20-pound package
sent to Spokane will cost about thirty
cents under the change to go into
effect August IS. At present the rate
is 46 cents for a 11-pound package,
This makes one-haf the cost for twice
the weight.
The order reads in part: The rate
on parcels exceeding four ounces in
weight shall be 5 cents for the first
pound and one cent for each additional
two pounds or portion thereof, when
intended for local delivery, and cents
for the first pound and l cent for each
additional pound or fraction thereof
when intended for delivery at other
offices within the first and second
zones.
Fresh meats are to be received
within the zones named when properly
wrapped. Formerly fresh meat could
only be sent within the first zone.
We are anticipating a great rush
Of business when these regulations go
into effect said Postmaster Davis this
week. I'VE are planning to increase
the means Of taking care of the busi-
ness. From the inquiries we have re-
ceived local merchants are going TO
increase their shipping territory by
