VOLUNTARY REDUCTION IN
SPOKANE LIGHTING RATES
On Condition that the City Withdraw It's
Complaint from Public Service
Commission

Because Leavenworth is entitled to
lower rates, we are reprinting from yes
terday's Spokesman-Review the result
of the contention Of the people Of that
city with the Washington Water Power
Co. The power company evidently
did not want the state public service
commission to make physical valua-
ton Of its property, knowing that it
would result as such investigations
have everywhere resulted, in reducing
the company's valuation two-thirds.
Concessions by the Washington Wa
ter Power company in the way of re-
Quoted rates for lights and power wee
forecasted at the city hall yesterday af-
ternoon as the result Of meeting of
the company held yesterday morning.
The reductions, it was stated, will be
contingent on their approval by the city
council and the agreement by the city
to drop its action for rate reduction be-
fore the state public service commits
sion and the movement for a municipal
light and power plant for period OF
years.
When the matter was called to the
attention of D. L. Huntington, presi-
dent of the Washington Water Power
company, last night he admitted that
a move of this kind is being discussed.
I'VE have the subject under consid-
eration," said Mr.. Huntington, and
it is possible we will have something
to offer along this line. Beyond this
there is nothing more to say at this
time"

BIG PHOTO PLAY COMING
TO THE SCENIC APRIL 18th
"for Napoleon and France" Another
One of Mein's Great Pr0duC-
TONS Here Soon

Romanticism is the keynote OF Geo.
Kleine's latest photodramatic success,
For Napoleon and France" which
will be the attraction at the Scenic
theatre for one night, Thursday, April
10th. 1t is based on historical events
that occurred during the iron rule OF
the great Napoleon, and is presented
with a dramatic power that is surpris-
ing to attain upon the screen, and can
only be accomplished by masters of
pantomime and expression such as the
Italian school creates.
The martial atmosphere is intense,
and the fortunes Of the chief charac-
tiers are cleverly interviewer with real
istic spectacular battles that were
fought during the Napoleonic wars.
But the clash Of mighty armies, charges
and counter charges, heroic deeds on
the field Of battle, and the flying shot
and she'll that turn the scene of con-
flict into a shambles, all wildly and
realistically visualized on the screen,
while enthralling the audience, do not
hold its intense interest so completely
as the romantic thread that is current
throughout this absorbing photodrama.
Sympathetically the spectators watch
a sophisticated woman of the world,
although Of high degree and member
of the French court-an institution
reeking with iniquity and degradation,
play with the heartstrings OF a youthful
soldier OF France, whose heroism on
the field OF battle has won him honors,
the praises OF his country and the favor
OF Napoleon. Her subtle charms and
articles bring him to her feet. She
plays with him as a cat does mouse.
When she has him on the point of be-
ing faithless to his country through dis
obedience OF military orders, he is
saved from her evil infatuation by his
devoted sister.
The manner in which the adven-
turess seeks to avenge herself upon the
youth forms the balance OF this won
derful story, which is replete with
tense dramatic situations.

Millions of Eggs Coming from the Orient

Poultry raisers are beginning to take
notice of the effect the importation of
eggs from China is having on the mar
kets. Since last December, 40,000,-
900 eggs have reached the coast cities
from China, being landed at Seattle,
Portland and San Francisco. AS re-
suit Of this heavy importation, the price
Of locally produced eggs have declined
and are now selling at 90 cents dozen
which is the lowest known at this sea-
son for many years. The eggs are
shipped from Shanghai by a firm which
just recently started in the business Of
shipping eggs. In that place, eggs
are purchased by the pound. The
shipments during the past three months
were 40,000,000 or fraction more
than 1888, 1888 dozen and it is expect
ed that the expectation of eggs to this
country will triple in the next three
months

ORIENTALS NOT WANTED
IN OKANOGAN COUNTRY
Midnight Mob SeizeS Two Cinnamon,
Takes Them to Town With Orders
Never to Return

Two Cinnamon employed as cooks
on the 700-acre orchard of the Boston
Okanogan Co. near Malott in the
Okanogan country we're taken from
their beds on Tuesday night by 80
men who took them into town, placed
them in a lodging house and warned
them never to return. A general mis-
understanding had arisen to the effect
that these were forerunners of an army
of Cinnamon who we're to be i'm
ported to do orchard work for the com
pany. The feeling in that section is
that neither Japs nor Chinks shall ever
be allowed to get foot hold as la
borers in the orchards OF the upper
country. Later the superintendent OF
the ranch went to town and explained
to the outraged citizens that the or
ientals were not employed to do or
chard work but only as cooks. The
two Cinnamon were taken back.

ATKINSON PLANNING TO
OPEN MARBLE QUARRY
John D. Atkinson, Owner of Marble
Deposits in This Vicinity Here
This Week

That John D Atkinson is still figur-
ing on opening up his marble deposits
about thirty miles north of this city is
very evident. Mr.. Atkinson in COM
pany with Mr.. Salverson arrived here
Tuesday morning from Seattle and on
the following day both gentlemen left
with Chrs. Shugart on trip to the
properties. intending to be absent a
week or ten days.
From all indications the Quincy r.
rigation bonds will be ratified by the
voters in the fall election which will
mean the beginning Of construction
on the big irrigation project inside Of
three years at the most. Mr.. Atkin-
son would be sure then to rush devel-
opment work on his properties since il
would mean a market for between
IS, ZOO to 20, 900 carloads Of cement.
In all probability the plant would be
located in or near this city.
A. J. Ternent Of Quincy and other
boosters Of the enormous irrigation
scheme who have travelled over the
state are confident that the people
will give the proposition their ap-
proval in the November election.
With the commencement OF work
on the Quincy irrigation project, Lea
venworth will experience a boom not
rivaled by any city in the whole north
west.

FOUR COUNTIES ORGANIZE
BIG PUBLICITY LEAGUE
Delegates from all Over Central Wash
ingtOn Gather in Wenatchee and
Have Interesting Meeting.

Delegates from four counties met in
Wenatchee on Tuesday and formed an
organization which is to be known as
the North Central Washington Publicity
league. The delegates over twenty in
number were representatives Of the COM
mercial bodies OF their city. 1t will be
the object OF the league to start cam
paign for advertising the resources and
possibilities of that vast scope of COM
paratively undeveloped county embrac-
ed in the four counties. After the busi-
ness session, the delegates were the
guests of the Wenatchee Commercial
club at noon luncheon, where several
addresses were made. Over a hundred
Wenatchee business men attended the
luncheon. In the afternoon the visitors
were taken Tor an auto ride thru the val
ley. The trip was very delightful one
as the peach and apricot trees are in
bloom and the apple trees are just COM
mencing to put on their spring dresses
of green. In the evening the dele
gates were entertained at the local the
atres.
Judge c. c. Campbell, Of Chelan,
was chosen as the first president OF the
league and Arthur Hoppock, OF Wenat-
chez, secretary. The new organization
will aid in the campaign to advertise
the Quincy Project thruout the state
and on this occasion was the subject OF
lengthy discussion. A. J. Ternet, pub
licity manager of the big irrigation pro-
ject, made a very interesting talk on
the Quincy scheme. Among the other
speakers were Ed Russell, Judge Camp
bell, Deed H. Magyar, Fred S. Graham,
Great Northern immigration agent; N.
E. Whiteworth, Arthur Gum and others.
The Wenatchee World has the fol-
lowing TO say:
Deed Magyar, editor of the Leaven-
worth Echo. insisted that he was mis-
represented when President Russell in
troduced him as ''the War Horse from
the Upper Wenatchee Valley" On
the other hand he denied that he was
like the trainer of animals in a mena-
gerie, armed with a jib stick by which
he stirred up the animals and was al
ways starting something" He did
acknowledge, nevertheless, that it is
doubtless true that the division point oi
the Great Northern would doubtless
have been moved to Wenatchee long
ago, but for his activity. daughter. }

R. R. BUSINESS IMPROVING
MOVING EMPTY CARS WEST
Several thousand Freight Cars Have Gone
Thru Here in the Past Few Weeks
Movement Still in Progress

From railroad men, employed about
the yards, we learn that for several weeks
past, freight cars have been moving
westward, 1t is no unusual thing to see
a hundred empties in one train coming
in from the east only to out again as
soon as a new crew could take charge
OF the train. The larger number will
be used in hauling out lumber which
we are told is moving eastward in evel
increasing quantities. A half dozen
freight crews, some of them having
been laid off in the winter, have gone
to work.
Everything points 10 revival o.
business in transportation lines. Wash
ington lumber is moving eastward free
ly. The mills along Puget Sound are
nearly all under full operation.

Marshall Sampson, at this writing, is
hot on the trail of the owners of dogs,
who have not as yet taken out licenses.
He says that in the past ten days, he
has collected fees from about fifty dog
owners. He believes, as do others, that
the town is being over run with dogs
and if the owners do not come forward
in a reasonable length Of time and pay
the license, they will be taken up and
shot.

NEW TRACT
TO BE IRRIGATED
5000 Acres Above Bus' River to Bt
Provided With Water the
Coming SUMNER.

I asst week Messrs. J. r. Murdoch, A
J. Evans, s. l.. Chapman and f. w
Kirkham, directors In the Provo River
Reservoir company, met with the
farmers Of Alpine regarding their TAX
ing water from a new high line canal
The farmers showed most. kindly
disposition toward the project and ex-
pressed willingness to subscribe for
water.
The project contemplates high
line canal skirting the foothills from
point back OF Alpine to the Point
Of the Mountain, northwest OF Lehi
Junction. 1t will cover all the land
between the foothills and the Bull
River ditch and which contains ap-
proximately 5000 acres of the best
land In the state.
A canal will be taken out to the
south and east of Alpine for about
500 acres that does not have any wat
er at present.
The water that will I'LL these canals
will be that which formerly came tc
Lehi, also to the lands under the Bull
River system. Lehi and Bull River
will be supplied with water from
Provo Canyon. which supplies large
surplus up to the early part of July
when Lehi and Bull River ceases &c
get any water from the Alpine
streams.
This will give the new land only
an early water right. but 1t will b.
sufficient to mature all grain crops
and ordinarily two crops Of alfalfa
The price to be charged the farmers
at present will be s35 per acre.
This exchange will help both Bull
River and Lehi. as the two systems
will not only have the same amour,
OF water measured to them at poin'
lower down that is taken out at 9
point higher up, thus saving large
amount OF loss from seepage and evap
grafton. but Lehi will be benefited b,
seepage from the new tract being irri
gated, and Bull River will be great,
benefited from the run-off Of the long
narrow tract just above their canal
Much OF the new land to be irrigated
VIII be tributary to Lehi and will be
a material addition to our present ir-
rTgated area.
