SCENIC HIGHWAY WILL
SEE TRAVEL THIS YEAR
Plans are Being Made to Get fasteners
to Come By Way of Washington

That thousands OF automobile par
ties will pass thru Leavenworth next
summer on their way to the San
Francisco Exposition if the Scenic
Highway is open for travel, is the be-
lief now expressed. Motorists as far
east as Chicago are planning to drive
their cars to the Pacific coast, and a
special effort is being made to get
them to pass thru Washington.
Plans for inspecting and dedicating
the Northwest Trail from Chicago to
Seattle and for advertising that trans
continental highway among eastern
autoists have been made by Spokane
good roads authorities.
Secretary Gordon C. Corbaley Of the
chamber of commerce and Secretary
Frank w. Guilbert Of the Washington
State Good Roads, will commence this
week campaign to secure the CO.
operation not only OF Inland Empire
cities and towns that are served by auto
roads but also of every city on the
route of the Northwest Trail from Chi
cago to Seattle.
1--WE will suggest having parties
from each city inspect piece of the
trail on May Is for the purpose OF re-
porting any needed repairs" states
M. Guilbert. "On June IS it is our
plan to have the formal dedication take
place, with ceremonies on every link
of the road.
"Unquestionably we can influence
several thousand parties OF automobile
tourists to make the journey to the
California expositions through the In
land empire if we cooperate in putting
the Northwest Trail in first class coz
dition and follow this up by system
attic campaign Of publicity in the east
and middle west.
Spokane stands ready to do her
share toward bringing this about. Not
only will we put our share Of the money
into it but we also are willing to do
more than our share of the work incl
dent to a campaign Of this magnitude.
We have heard from Seattle good roads
authorities, and they will cooperate
heartily.
Il am convinced that the COM
ing of several thousand fasteners and
their seeing this country in so thorough
a way as automobile travelling admits,
will be worth much in future develop
ment to all parts of the Pacific north
west"

PROMISING OUTLOOK
FOR LUMBER INDUSTRY
Many Washington Mills Resumed Work
this Week-LOgging Must
Follow Suit

Within the past two weeks the lum-
Der industry, the most important factor
in Washington prosperity, has begun
to take on life. Almost every day the
daily press has contained items about
mills resuming and employing one, two
and three hundred men. Following
are some OF the items referred to:
Everett, Wash, Jan. 3.-Two lurn-
Der mills, employing total OF 700
men, will resume work tomorrow, and
third, employing 200 more, will start
up January IS, it was announced today.
Large foreign orders and improvements
in the eastern market are given as the
reason.
Washington, D. c., Jan. 3.-Busi-
ness conditions and prospects are de-
clared to be generally reassuring" by
the chamber of commerce Of the United
States in report made public today.
The European war is acknowledged,
however, to have had a widespread and
depressing effect on industrial and COM
mercial conditions.
Crops in general, the report adds,
have been good, but the cattle indus
try is confronted by serious handicap
in difficulty in obtaining loans on cat
tie and by the foot and mouth disease
quarantine. The sheep and wool in
dustry is excellent, while mining con.
ditions are stated as generally poor.
Many idle factories are reported as
preparing TO resume operations and
employees are being taken on where de-
creased forces have been working.

MAYOR WOODROW WILL
WORK FOR ECONOMY
Newly Elected City Officials Took Up
Their Duties Last tuesday
Evening


ing of the old city council, with the
exception OF two members, Council.
men Wheeler and Miller, who are hold
overs for another year. Those chosen
in the election of December to serve
for the coming year and who took up
their duties this week were: Mayor
L. w. Woodrow, Councilmen H. x.
Featherstone, C. w. Seeley, ]. E.
Schubert, P. A. Snyder, and S. c.
Woldenburg.
The retiring Mayor Woldenburg. be-
fore giving up his seat to his successor
made few remarks concerning the ad-
ministration OF 1914. He stated that
it was usually the case for the outgoing
mayor to thank the council for their
help and assistance during the year,
but strange as it may seem, he had no
praise for his colleagues OF the past
year. They had helped him but little
to carry out his promises made to the
people before his election, and he then
cited the Volunteer Fire Department
which he had tried so hard to get or
ganized. It was his belief that $780,
900 worth OF property could have been
saved if the city had had fire depart
ment the past year. The councilmen
in Office at the time the city water sys-
TEN was accepted, also were criticised
by him.
Mayor Woodrow who took his seat
following Mr.. Woldenburg's talk stated
that he had few promises to make, but
that he did promise Leavenworth a
nropram of which Efficiency and
Economy" would be the headliners,
He stated further that he would 60 slow
on appointments and had none to make
at that time. He then asked the clerk
TO call the roll and the new council
took their seats.
The first thing asked for by the new
Mayor was a report on the financial
condition of the city which was given
bv Treasurer Koerner.
The report showed the city to be in
bad shape financially. For some time
to come the leading question will be
How to relieve the situation" There
will be retrenchment along all lines and
wherever an item of expense can be cut
out, it will be done.
City Attorney Nelson suggested that
the council should have a detailed
statement every month, taking in every
fund, showing the amount OF money on
hand. and also the outstanding war
rants. This suggestion met with the
spproval of the mayor and the councli
and the treasurer will probably in the
future be asked for such report. The
city attorney also believed that the
clerk should be provided with a filing
cabinet and card index system to keep
track OF all of the city's valuable
papers.
Councilman Woldenburg stated that
he believed that an additional bond
should be issued to take care OF the
city's indebtedness providing they
could find bonding houses that
would accept 6 per cent issuances'
He said this would result in saving oil
at least Q or per cent interest.

mission to transfer his saloon license to

BLIND EYE MADE GOOD.
Operation Has Peculiar Effect Of Re-
storing Sight.

operation TaS REGULAR Effect OF Re-
storing Sight.
An operation for appendicitis per-
formed on Ralph Won Hacht, aged
twenty three, of Milford, Conn, has
resulted in the restoring to the young
man Of the sight of one eye, which
had been blind since his birth.
The operation was performed by DR..
Francis Campbell and members Of the
staff Of Trinity hospital, New York
When the physicians removed Won
Hachts appendix several weeks ago
they had no idea that they were going
to restore his sight. 1t seems, how
ever, that the appendix had been rest
ing against one Of the large nerves
that form part Of the system which
connects with the optic nerves.
After the operation, Won Hacht for
the first time In his life distinguished
darkness from light with his blind eye
Soon he began to see objects with the
eye. He was warned by the doctors
not to exert his ''blind'' eye too much,
but to allow it to grow stronger gradu-
ally. He said that the "blind' eye was
nearly as good as the other eye

German papers show that the pro-
posal to fix certain days on which no
meat is to be eaten is being universal
~ discussed. It is predicted that the
people will adapt themselves to the re-
striction without protest. The govern
ment's ordinance has not yet been is
sued, but specific restriction days are
being speculated upon.
