FARMERS AND
CONSUMERS

vites County to a Cet-To-
gether Dinner Dec. II

w. G. Mumaw. president Of the
Chamber Of Commerce, has visited
some of the farming sections Of the
county this week, and has writer
many farmers concerning the prob
lem Of educating the farmers and con
sumers of farm produce in Chehalis
county in the matter Of using home
products in preference to that ship
ped from abroad.
Such farmers as have given the
subject thought, and the various com
mercial organization of the county
realize the Importance of the move
ment, and express a desire to cooper
ate in bringing about the desired
result.
Invitations have been extended to
the entire county to attend the get
together dinner here on December II
at Hotel Washington, when it is ex
pected an interchange Of views will
result in determining a plan of CO.
operative effort that will produce the
results aimed at.
There is no doubt that the cities
on Grays Harbor offer a market for
all the farm products of Chehalis
county and that it is greatly to the
interest of both farmers and con.
sumers that this market be supplied
with home grown produce, but to ac.
complish this end will require effect.
i've work on the part of the farmers,
commercial bodies and consumers.

STREET
IMPROVEMENT
Again Occupies 1.-The City
Council-Road to Fern Hill
Cemetery Necessary
REPAIR WESTEND STREETS
All Streets West Of Division
to Be Closed for Repairs
Except Pacific Ave.

The city council, at the meeting
Wednesday night, again wrestled
with the vexing problem of how to
get good roadway through North
Aberdeen to Fern Hill cemetery. The
committee, to who the matter of i'm
proving Young street had been refer.
red, reported in favor of redecking
that street with plank from the bridge
to Thomas street and planking sever
al blocks on Roosevelt street. so as
to afford a road to the cemetery.
Property owners on Roosevelt street
objected, as there were no houses on
that street, and it was then suggested
that Young street be permanently i'm
proved by filling and graveling. Action
on this suggestion was deferred for
week while the engineer made an
estimate of the cost, and the attor.
ney gives an opinion on the legality
of creating a district extending be-
yond Young street for the improve
ment of that street.
The ordinance changing some pre-
cinct boundaries was read and laid
over week, pending some more
changes.
The improvement of Pacific avenue
was accepted from the contractors, and
it was ordered that all streets run
ming east and west, west of Division
street, be closed to travel after De.
cember 10, for 20 days. in order that
they may be thoroughly repaired.
Claims amounting to $775 were pre-
sented against Henry & Hunley, con
tractors on the water reservoir.
A resolution was ordered drawn for
the drainage of the territory west of
Sumner avenue.
A warrant in favor Of John Greer
for $500, in payment of his judgment,
was ordered drawn.
An invitation from the state board
of health, asking the city to send
representative to a state conference,
was read and filed.
Ordinances were passed providing
for a sidewalk on Sumner street from
Newell to Harbor street and authoriz-
ing the mayor and clerk to issue
bonds on the improvement of Heron
street, from M to Division streets.
Rev. Charles McDermoth requested
authority to clear certain streets in
the west end Of trees in order to pro-
vide work for unemployed men. Ref.
erence was made to the street com.
mittee with power to act.
An unearned portion of the Union
saloon license, which saloon has gone
out of business, was granted to Jacob
son and Kaufman.
Lights suggested by the fire and
light committee were ordered placed.
= Total insurance on city property
amounting to $33.4O0 was referred to
the finance committee. 49,.

OIL At TENiNO
Aberdeen Witnesses Of Uneapplne
Crescent Well Satisfied Oil 10
Found; Quantity Unknown

Most of those from Aberdeen who
visited the Crescent oil we'll at Tenino
Tuesday are of opinion that a good
grade of parafin oil has been discov.
cred. OF course. the question of it
being in commercial quantity in that
we'll has not yet been demonstrated,
out the important fact that petroleum
does exist in the field is shown.
This fact will, without doubt, in.
crease the interest in Western Wash
ington fields and lead to the sinking
of a number of wells, which. accord
ing to all geological reports, will be
certain to open up several oil fields,
none of which have any more natter.
ing prospects than that Of the Hob
river.

BALLOT
IS ON THE WAY
Smaller Number of Elective
Officers Logically Follows
the Primary Law
SYSTEM BECOME COMPLEX
Added Population Makes 1t
Impossible fol Voters to
Know All Candidates

When the nation was young and
population sparse the long ballot
served reasonably we'll. Business, in
dustry and society ran on simple lines.
People had more leisurely pursuits,
more time to observe the conduct of
their public officials, to discuss poll.
tics and public business, to know their
neighbors. Interest in personalities
was keen.
Thus in the early days of Chehalis
county, for example, notwithstanding
the broad area of the county, every
body knew everybody. At the cleo
ton 80 years ago but very few ballots
were cast in the entire county, and
little effort was required to enable
these voters to cast intelligent and
discriminating ballots.
These conditions continued measure
ally down to the admission of Wash
ington into the Union. A single line
of railroad, the Northern Pacific, link
ed eastern, central and western Wash
ington and their larger towns and
cities. Close acquaintanceship existed
between men in public life and the
leaders in business and industry. Po-
ltical conventions drew together well
informed groups from all sections of
the state or county. There was a
running fire Of greetings between ac-
quaintances and friends. The conven-
tions were useful clearing houses of
information bearing on the records
and qualifications Of the various can
didates. Nominations were usually
made with intelligent discrimination.
But under the complex relations of
the present day life, the wiping out
of the convention system these FORM
er aids to an intelligent selection Of
public officials no longer exist With
large growth Of population and the
adoption of the direct primary, has
come an alarming increase in blind
voting. both at the primaries and in
the general election. Even the most
industrious campaigner finds it ply
sically impossible to meet more than
a small minority Of the voters in the
state or in large county.
AS a result almost no one, in a
general election like the recent con-
test in November. is capable of cast.
ing a consistently intelligent ballot
Even the best informed citizen feels
distressed by the knowledge that for
some Offices he must either vote by
guesswork or not note at all.
Here is a fact that admits of no
refutation. Practically every one who
reads this article will be cognizant
OF its verify, for every voter, however
intelligent and conscientious, has to.

CROWD ATTENDS BANQUET

The banquet given by the Patriotic
and Military Social club on Tuesday
night was attended by about 200
guests, the number so far exceeding
expectations that the tables in the
dining room were set three times.
Owing to this fact the toasts were
necessarily omitted. The ladies of
the G.. A. r. club and the Women s
Relief Corps. who prepared and
served the banquet, were compliment.
ed upon the splendid dinner and ex.
cellent service.
