Whale Curioaitiaa.

Little Is really known about his
whaleship. This is surprising, consid-
ering he Is such an interesting subject.
The blue or sulphur bottom whale Is
the largest animal living today. Spec
linens have measured eighty-seven feet
In length, which In all probability
weighed about seventy-five tons. Odd
ly enough, although the mouth will
permit twelve men to stand In 1t the
throat is only nine inches in diameter.
These particular whales feed on mi
mute shrimps-about three-quarters OF
an inch in length-and they probably
never touch fish while they can obtain
these. From the inside of one of these
whales FIVE barrels of shrimps were
taken. The sperm whale possesses
spermaceti in liquid form in the up
per portion of its head. From one of
these whales twenty barrels Of sper-
maceti were taken out of the ease"
This same type of whale also yields
ambergris. that valuable substance
used so extensively in the manufac-
cure of our best perfumes.

Japan First With Japanese.

Every Japanese is a Japanese fret,
whatever else he may be second. In
this unified patriotism they are fDcom-
parable. 1t extends even to the minor
affairs Of life. There is no Japanese,
Of high or low degree, who will admit
any fault Of his country to foreigner.
however strict his censure may be
when talking to his friends. If there
are faults the Japanese conceal them.
They never volunteer any information
as to drawbacks, and they always have
an excuse for failures No condition
can arise in Japan whereby foreigner
can learn from a Japanese of anything
to the detriment Of the country. The
statesmen will not tell you anything
The coolies will not tell you anything.
They are units Of concealment They
put the good face on everything 1t Is
Japan first with them. Japan first al
ways, and always a super-Japan. Sam

There's Going to Be an, Explosion Here

Editor Leavenworth Echo:-
The law abolishing liquor from the
state of Washington had the endorse
ment of the voters and should be en-
forced but it is not. In Leavenworth
the law is violated every day and night.
Everybody knows this but the town off
GERS.
Drunken men and women are seen
on the streets and drunken people are
heard during the night. 1t would be
an easy matter for the officers to find
out who is selling this liquor if they
would try. Why doesn't the prose-
cutting attorney and the sheriff do
something?
Let those who believe in law enforce
ment get together and elect someone
who will promise to see that the law is
enforced. If the women would work
together as they do in other towns,
they would soon bring about change
here. Let US hear from some Of the
men on this subject.

better town. Leavenworth June Goth

FRANK G. PALMER
For County Treasurer on the Republican
Ticket

The subject OF this sketch has made
Wenatchee his home since 1898, or
at time when Wenatchee was little
more than a wide place in a public
road. In truth he grew to manhood
along about the time Wenatchee began
to put on the habilaments Of town,
and in size has been keeping pace
with the growth of the city by the
Columbia river. II you cannot locate
him in your mind we may help you by
saying he is a son Of Judge ]. B. Pal
mer, who dealt out justice to the just
and unjust in Wenatchee for some fit
teen years. Frank, as his familiars
address him, was employed by the
Ellis-Ford Co. for fourteen years, and
in the hey dey OF that firms business
career was manager of the company S
branch store at Cashmere and for a
short time managed a store for that
company at Chewalah, Wash. He
made a good run for the same place
four years ago, but nothing daunted,
says IF at first you don't succeed
try, try again" Of his fitness there
is no question, and il nominated and
elected no man will regret giving him
his support.

A Lost Sea.

tepee l gave a yell that reused the
camp. The sea was gone! Not sign
of that vast grass grown dip in which
it had been. My first thought, and
natural one, was that was out of my
head Where had the sea gone? Had
we really camped on its shore the night
before? l strained my eyes. but could
see nothing but that dip speckled with
pools of water. ! was In the company
Of a Hudson bay factor at the time,

Then the explanation came. At this

low, and at low tide the sea dropped
back seven miles! During the night 1t
had actually left us seven miles in

DOOR NOT CLOSED.

London, Dec. 21.-The Daily Mail,
which is close to Premier Lloyd
George, this morning gave prominence
to the following:
"The Germanic and neutral press
views on Mr.. Lloyd Georges refusal
Of the German peace offer largely take
the standpoint that he did not close
the door to peace. The actual fact.
however, is that he entirely declined
peace on anything except the allies
terms and the door obviously remains
open only if Germany is willing to ac-
cept those terms, which are complete
restitution, full reparation and effec-
tual guarantees.
The Star. which, as well as the Daily
Mail, has pAcificist tendencies, says
that Premier Lloyd Georges state
ment that the British welcomed Ger
man development as long as it was on
the paths of peace has not received
the attention it merits.
ION the whole, the prospect before
humanity is not quite so black as 1t
was last Christmas" the Star contin-
ues. 1.-The nations have reached the
stage of talking about peace. II they
are talking at each other rather than
talking to each other it is because the
dawn of peace is only starting to
break. There may be many weary
hours before dawn blossoms into sum
rise, but a faint light already is seen
in the eastern sky"

Ian sing Tells
Wilson's Reason
ForSendirlg Note

Washington, D. c., Dec. 21.-
Secretary Lansing in a statement
today explaining the sending OF
President Wilson's note to the bel
ligerents declared it was because
the situation for neutrals was be-
coming increasingly critical and
the United States itself was being
drawn near the verge Of war.
Secretary Lansing today author
lied the following statement:
"The reasons for the sending OF
the note were as follows:
at isn't our material interest
we had in mind when the note was
sent, but more and more our
rights are becoming involved by
the beIiieerents on both sides, SO
that the situation is becoming in
creasinsiy critical.
"a mean by that, that we are
drawing nearer the verge OF war
ourselves and therefore we are en-
titled to know exactly what each
bcltiaerent seeks in order that we
may regulate our conduct in the
future.
"No nation has been sounded.
No consideration Of the German
overtures or of the speech OF
Lloyd George was taken into ac-
count in the formulation Of the
document. The only thing the
overtures did was to delay It few
days. II was not decided to send
1t until Monday. OF course. the
difficulties that face the president
were that it might be construed as
a movement toward peace and in
aid Of the German overtures. He
specifically denies that that was
the fac. in the document itself"
Secretary Lansing further said:
"The sending Of this note will
indicate the possibility Of our be
ing forced into the war. That pos
sibltity ought to serve as a re-
straining and soberina force safe
guarding American rights. It may
also serve to force an earlier con-
cIusion Of the war. Neither the
president nor myself regard this
note as a peace note: it 10 merely
an effort to get the belliocrents TO
define the end for which they are
fighting"

DES MONIES MAYOR
FIGHTS COAL MEN
BLOOMFIELD CONCERN ASKS ~
JUNCTION TO PREVENT sElZ-
uRE OF FUEL CARS.

Des Moines, Dec. 21.-Mayur John
MacVicar won victory out Of court
today when he forced from representa-
tives of Wholesale coal dealers prom
ise that none of their product would
be shipped out of Des Moines as long
as there was single destitute family
in the city without coal.
After the mayor had given notice
that he would fight the Injunction pc
tition, he issued statement that un-
less assurances we're given that the
poor were to be taken care Of he would
order the police department to seize
every car Of fuel out bound from Des
Moines and would see to it that it was
distributed before injunction proceed
ings could be brought. The plaintiff
then agreed to distribute the coal
through the associated charities.
At today's council meeting the prop.
osition of buying coal mine and hav-
ing the city operate it was considered
as a war measure"
Petition for Injunction was fled hate
yesterday and service accepted by the
city clerk and other city officials after
the mayor had absented himself from
the city hall in the hope Of escaping
service in case such a petition should
be fled.
An internal shakeup in the city hail
was predicted today by police officials
as the result Of the mayors action. It
was charged unoficiany that some of
the city officials accepting service did
SO in order to thwart the mayors plan
because OF MacVicars veto on some
previous occasion of measures they
had champinned.
Hundreds of families reported to
the authorities today that they had no
coal and could obtain none.

Special stocks, notably those regard
