Must Be Checked.

The reckless expenditure OF funds
raised by taxation will have to be
checked, or the people will not be able
to bear their unnecessary burdens any
longer and will be tempted to raise up
in arms against constituted authority.
From the increased registration oi
voters this year, it is apparent that the
people are beginning to recognize the
fact that each person owes to himself
and to the people in general the duty
to closely scrutinize the acts OF public
officials and of candidates for Office and
being at tbs polls to vote for good men
who are prudent and will work for the
adjustment of all unnecessary expen-
ditures Of public funds no matter how
gracious or influential the recipient oil
the public funds may be.

Industries Support Communities

Industries and their payrolls not
only support families and make the
community prosperous, but pay the
taxes.
They sometimes earn profits for the
owners and even in rare cases have
been known to pay dividends to stock
holders.
Properly speaking industries include
all business employments and activities
that result in a payroll or circulate
money.
The city Of Klingenberg, Germany,
owns a valuable mine Of clay and pays
each resident an annual revenue of $50
besides all city taxes.
Industries produce the wealth and
put the money in circulation that en-
ables people to pay taxes, whether it
be bootblack stand, a cannery or a
railroad company.

WFNATCHEE YOUTH INJURED

High Tree for BOughs

Lloyd Farris, of Wenatchee, an IS
year old youth, with a companion OF
about the same age were camping
about two miles up in the Icicle can
yon. Just before dark Monday even
ing they were cutting pine boughs,
supposedly to make a bed, and young
Farris climed a tall pine tree with an
ak TO cut boughs and fell out. In his
decent he must have struck limbs, but
before he hit the ground his body
struck on an old building that had been
used by the city water system builders
three years ago. His hip was dislocat-
ed, several ribs fractured and his body
very severely bruised. Mr.. and Mrs.
J. D. Wheeler who were in the vicinity
brought the news to town and Doctors
judah and Hoxsey Immediately left in
an auto and brought the unfortunate
youth to the Leavenworth hospital
where his hurts were dressed and his
father notified. Ed. Farris, a We
natchee fruit grower, arrived here on
the early morning train and took his
son home, where, we are told, he is
making satisfactory recovery.

here BY the company in making much
needed improvements in the terminal

considerable increase in business the
second year.

CHAS. s. TAYLOR TAXES
INTEREST IN THE TOGGERY
Deal Closed This Week for the Interest
Formerly Held by Spencer
BIankenShip

Ever since Mr.. Blankenship decided
to re tire from the Toggery some six
weeks ago, Mr.. Pipkin has been looking
about for some one to take over that
interest. Yesterday the announcement
was made that deal had been closed
whereby c. S. Taylor, by his intimates
known as Pick" becomes a member
Of the Toggery Co. They could not
have hit on a better man in every way.
Mr.. TAYLOR has had nine years exper-
ience with the Leavenworth Mercantile
Co. the oldest and one of the largest
mercantile establishments IN Leaven-
worth, and was considered one of its
most reliable and popular statesmen.
While with the company he devoted
his time to dry doods and clothing and
was considered first class buyer as
we'll as salesman. Messrs. Pipkin and
Taylor will make a strong team and
ought to pull together like pair of
draft horses. They are both young.
full of energy and have the mercantile
instinct. They are both model men
and have a host of friends. The Echo
predicts for them successful career.
