FRUIT GROWERS MEET
NEXT MONDAY EVENING
Win Organize LeavenwOrth Branch of
Northern Pacific Fruit Dis
tributerS

Next Monday evening, at 1880, at
the city hall, an effort will be made to
organize branch of the North Pacific
Fruit Distributors, a cooperative asso-
citation organized to handle fruit of all
kinds. This association handled some
seven or eight hundred cars of fruit the
past season for the different branches
that belong to the association. At
this time $1.12H per box, orchard
run, has been paid on the apples han
died. If we are correctly informed
some thirty-fve cars remain to be sold,
which is expected to bring the returns
up to at least SIPS per box for
orchard run. Mr.. w. o. Dow, man
ager of the Wenatchee branch, has
been asked to come here and explain
to the apple growers of the Upper We
natchee Valley the methods of the as
sociation and help organize local
branch.
After growing the apples the next
most important thing is to sell them
and get the money. AS the apple in
dustry has assumed considerable pro-
portions in this vicinity it is expected
that the growers will attend the meet
ing and get all the information possible
on this important subject.
4 1.-THE last information about the fruit
growers meeting to be held tomorrow
evening is to the effect that ]. H.
Robbins, general manager, and H. c.
Sampson, secretary and assistant man
ager, of the North Pacific Fruit Dis
tributors, OF Spokane, as we'll as Mr..
Dow OF the Wenatchee branch, will be
here tomorrow to explain to the fruit
growers the policy, plans and methods
of handling fruit, as well as make re-
port of the result of the associations
sales the past year.
Every fruit grower in this vicinity
who expects to have apples for sale
this year should make it point to be
present and get his neighbors to at
tend the meeting. They will surely
hear something about subject in
which they are vitally interested.

Look to Your Taxes

Taxpayers should bear in mind that
personal taxes now due and payable
must be attended to by March 18th or
they will become delinquent. The law
makes it duty of the treasurer to at
once turn over for collection by dis
traint at the hands Of the sheriff all
personal taxes not paid by that time.
The treasurer reports that such taxes
are coming in slowly, and urges that
all interested give the matter attention
at once.

N. PATTERSON CHOSEN
AS SCHOOL DIRECTOR
Defeats the Socialist Candidate, John A.
Love, by the Overwhelming Vote
of 375 to 96

By vote of nearly 4 to l N. Patter-
son was chosen school director in the
election last Saturday, receiving 375
votes to his opponents, John Love,
the socialist candidate, o6. In all
there were All votes cast, and it wa S
by far the most exciting school cleo
ton ever held in Leavenworth. All
day Saturday it was the main topic of
conversation on the streets and many
were the speculations as to who the
winning candidate would be. There
never was any real doubt of Mr.. Pat
terson's election, but it was practically
assured, when early Saturday morning
F. S. Jacobsen announced that he
would Withdraw from the race and give
his support to Mr.. Patterson.
Friends of both candidates kept rigs
busy all OF the afternoon hauling vot-
ers to the polls, and in addition to this
the day was ideal, which brought Out
an extra large women vote. From re-
marks made by the fair sex it is be-
lieved that more than four fifths ol
them cast their vote for Mr.. Patterson.
Mr.. Love received the solid socialist
vote and also drew few scattering
votes from the outlying districts.

MAN BADLY INJURED
WHILE LOADING ICE
Clarence Olsen Has Jaw Broken ir
Three Piaces-Has to be Fed by
the Use of Tubes

Clarence Olsen. an employee Of the
firm of ]. H. Pifer & Co. a contracting
firm which is loading the Great North
ern ice hooses in this city met with a
horrible accident Monday afternoon
when he was struck under the chin BY
a falling timber, which broke his jaw
in three places.
DR.. A. R. McKeown who dressed
the wounds of the injured man stated
that it was one of the worst fractures
in the jawbone that he ever saw. Con-
sidering the force of the blow he must
have received the doctor thinks he was
very fortunate in not having his neck
broken. The setting Of the broken
bones was very painful, and although
chloroform was used Olson is said to
have showed remarkable nerve After
the bones had been set in place band
ages were strapped around the mans
head, which will be kept on until they
have knitted again which will prob
ably be several weeks. During this
time Olson will be fed by tubes thru
his nose and jaw. While the break
was an unusually bad one DR.. Nc
Keown says it will not be followed by
any very bad results, and in the course
of a few months he will be able to use
his jaws as we'll as before.
The contractors took the injured
man to Spokane Wednesday where ne
will receive further treatment aftei
which he will be taken to his home in
Missoula, Mont.

COUNCIL WILL UPHOLD
PROPERTY OWNERS
Contractors Must Bring Mandamus Suit
to Get Money for Work Done on I'm
prOyement Districts 2 and a

The council took final stand Tues
day night on the ordinances calling for
the issuance of bonds to the contract
ors, the Columbia Engineering & Con-
struction Co., for the work done by
them in Districts and 4, their de-
cision being not to pass the ordinances
until compelled by the courts to do so.
This will likely result in mandamus pro-
ceedings being brought by the con-
tractors to force the council to pass the
two ordinances.
Councilman Jacobsen, one of the
large property holders in District Q,
put the matter squarely up to the coun-
Gil, saying, that there was no question
in his mind, but what the property
owners were taxed too high for the I'M
provement, and although they had de-
cided not to fight the case he would
favor keeping the ordinances on the
table and let the contractors start the
suit. He ended up by saying that
something should be done, at any rate,
one way or another Council Hamilton
then moved that they dispose Of the
matter and pass the ordinances. There
was no second to the motion and after
further discussion as to whether the
city or the property owners would have
to stand the court costs, it was decided
unanimously to keep the ordinances on
the table.
Mayor Woldenberg was opposed to
the city going into litigation unless the
property owners were willing to stand
the expense. Attorney Fox then spoke
up saying, that the costs could be as
sessed against the district affected.

week from. his son George now living
at St. Paul, MINI, stating that his
mother, Mrs. Robert Dye was acci-

hours, and never regained conscious

ately after the accident and left for

passed away when he arrived. Mrs.

years ago, and still have many friends

LOCAL MEN ORGANIZE
ENTIAT LUMBER co.
]. B. Adams and Nate Coleman Will Op'
crate SawmiII and Box Factory
On Entiat River

J. B. Adams, of Leavenworth, has
organized the Adams-Coleman Lumber
Company with capital stock of $685.
900, and will take hold Of the old Kel-
logg Milling proposition in the Entiat
valley, says the Wenatchee World.
The company has purchased o,000,-
feet of saw-logs from the Chelan Lum-
Der and Box Company in the Entiat,
and the company will Immediately
complete the saw mill which was par
tally erected by the Kellogg Lumber
Co. The plan is to start work imme-
diately on the mill and get the logs
into lumber during this coming season.
The Adams-Coleman Company will
also erect box factory, either at En-
tiat or in the city of Wenatchee, the
location being undecided at this time.
The new company have made their
financial arrangements with Wenatchee
banks, therefore their base for the
operations will be Wenatchee, though
the principal place of business is
named in the articles of incorporation
as Leavenworth.
The plan of the new company is to
handle all of the bankrupt stock OF logs
of the old company this season and in
the future place portable mills in OBJ
scure sections of timber, haul the lum-
Der to the railroads by traction engines,
ship to Wenatchee and manufacture
into boxes, which operation they claim
can be done cheaper.
Mr.. Adams is head Of the firm oi
Adams and Costello, who have had
charge of the Lamb-Davis Lumber
Co.'S Logging and river driving for the
past seven years and is recognized as
expert authority on logging and river
driving.
Mr.. Coleman is known to be one ol
the best saw mill men in the country,
having been with the Lamb-Davis Co.
for a number of years, and recently
with the Leavenworth Lumber Co.

least three times q week, as we believe
this is necessary for their health, as

when the County can afford it, to have

at present is very defective. We would
also recommend that lock be put or

room on the North side Of the building.
Upon examining the vaults of the
Ordinary and Clerks Offices, we find
that there is still good portion of
the fixtures and furniture to be of
wood. We also recommend that as
early as possible that these be replac-
ed with steel shelving and fixtures, on
account of the fire risk.
Jail Needs Repair.
Upon investigation Of the jail, we
find several broken panes Of glass,
which we recommend be fixed at once.
We find that the stove pipes to the
two stoves on the interior Of the Jail
need attention badly, as they do not
fit properly, and do not produce the
proper amount of heat on that account.
We recommend that metal collars be
fitted around the stove pipes where
they enter the chimney. We also rec
ommend that the stove nearest the en-
trance to the Jail be moved further
from the wall, so as to prevent dam
age. Also that the largest stove be re-
paired, as we find this defect to be one
of the causes for not sufficient heat be-
ing produced from them.
We also recommend that if possible,
one of the prisoners, a trusty, or some
other, be allowed to sleep on the out
side where he can keep the fire going
in the stove during extremely cold
weather until at least ten o'clock at
night, as the prisoners suffer from
cold on account of being in the steel
cages, which in itself, makes it almost
unbearable.
We find also that the canvas hunks
upon which the prisoners sleep would
seem to be too cold, and not sufficient
ly warm to give the prisoners at least
but very small degree Of comfort,
and we suggest that some padding, or
blankets be sewed on the top side for
the comfort of the prisoners

Report of the committee on Poor
House and Farm is as follows: We
find two inmates, one an old colored
man, and one colored woman, who
seem to be properly cared for; and al
so find their quarters comfortable and
clean; the buildings are in good repair
and the farm in first class condition.
Practically one hundred acres in high
state of cultivation, being planted in
oats and having good stand.
We also find that on the farm there
are 2O5 acres, valued at $4,000 per
acre, which would be worth
approximately $6OOO.OO.
We beg leave to submit herewith the
products of the farm for the year 1914.
They have threshed $500 bushels of
oats, valued at $0.7O per bushel; 100
tons of peavine hay and sorghum hay
valued at $4,000 per ton; vegetables
valued at $4,000; the products on the
farm totaling 100000 gross. The cost
Of operating the farm, including every
thing is $1,5O000, leaving a net profit
of $4,000, or forty per cent. on the
present valuation of the farm. We
found quite a quantity of very fine
pea-vine and oat-straw hay in bales;
they have fed from this since oats were
cut in June; they have at least fifty
tons now on hand.
Would Enlarge Farm.
Upon investigating, we advise the
purchase of ITO acres of land adjoin-
ing, to be operated in connection with
the present land. The net profit on
the land suggested for purchase will
pay for some one year, If operated
on the same basis as the present farm,
as the same superintendent can look
after it with but little additional cost.
We heartily commend Mr.. Christian,
Superintendent of roads; also the SUI
perintendent of the farm, Mr.. Dorman,
for the business-like management and
neatness in which the farm is operated
and kept.
We consider the entire premise
strictly sanitary. We are glad to note
that they have deep we'll on the farm
that is exceptionally good pure water,
with pump in good condition, which
furnishes pure water.
The committee on Court House and
Jail, beg to state that we have exam
ined the court house and find same in
a very satisfactory condition, with a
few exceptions.
We recommend that the fire bricks
in the back of two of the CRATES be
fixed, and the tops of the crate frames
he cemented so as to prevent the
smoke from doing damage.
We find that the water closets are
the old style, boxed in, and do not con-
slider them altogether sanitary. We
recommend that as soon as possible, or
as soon as funds will warrant that the
same be changed
We find two bad leaks in the roof;
