Messrs. c. B. Hughes and Jay

here Wednesday. Mr.. Hughes on his
way to Wenatchee lake where his wife
is staying for her health, and Mr..
Adams just because he likes once and
again 10 see his old stamping ground.
After visiting three weeks at the
home OF her father Rev. F. L. Moore,
Mrs. Lutte Wellington and two children
left here this morning for Roxboro,
where she will visit for time with her
sister Mrs. nottingham before return
ing to her home in Missoula, Mont.
Frank Palmer, Wenatchee, republi-
can candidate for county clerk, and
Carl Christensen, another old Leaven-
worth citizen, passed thru here on the
way to the upper Wenatchee river
where Mr.. Christensen's family is
camping. Mr.. Palmer is making a
very active canvass for the Office OF
CLERK and says he is meeting with
much encouragement.
F. A. Reynolds left Wednesday for
the northern part OF the county on a
vote killing trip. He intends to visit
Entiat and the Lake Chelan country
and will do his best TO convince the
voters of that part OF the county that
there is no good reason why all the
county officers should come from one
place, and that a sheriff from Leaven-
worth would help the republican ticket
at the general election.
Mr.. w. L. Clement, member Of the
firm Of Hoy & Co., doing the snow
shed work between Leavenworth and
I've, returned this week from St. Paul,
whittier he went the first Of the month
that he might celebrate the nations
and his own birthday with his family.
He says while east he visited several
points in the eastern and middle states
where his company is engaged in con-
tract work and found conditions in
general good and business prosperous.
Oliver Bates came down from lake
Wenatchee one day this week by way
of Winton and the G. N. railway. He
says there have been fewer visitors at
the lake this season than ever before.
He lays this to the cool weather which
has prevailed up to this time but from
now on expects more visitors at his
hostelry at the upper end Of the lake.
He says one good result of the cool
weather, which has frequently been
accompanied by frost, is to make mos
quitos scarce. Fishing in the lake is
unusually good this year.

glories of spiritual power: longing to
see justice, truth, purity and good will
established | am writing to ask that
every pastor of a Christian church ia
Georgia, regardless of creed or color,
will on Sunday before Christmas, this
year, preach from some text referring
to the Holy Ghost, or Holy Spirit OF
God, and that he and all church men,
bers who hear him will pray for the
sanctifying, ennobling and exalting
gift of the Holy Ghost to be bestowed
upon the entire state of Georgia, the
gift through which - wondrous
thought!-we may be made "partakers
OF the divine nature" III. Peter 40.
And to that end l will ask that every
editor of daily or weekly newspaper
in our state who is in accord with the
prayer for the holy gift will publish at
least the last two paragraphs of this
letter. Remember: THE love of God
is shed abroad in our hearts by the
Holy Ghost which is given unto us, >
also, 'ye shall receive power after that
the Holy Ghost has come upon you
And hold ever in mind Gods words
Them that honor Me l will honor. :

ALASKA PROVES TO
 BE SURPRISE LAND
 SAYS LADY TOURIST

Alaska proved a land of surprises to Mrs. G. W. Graves. of Chico. Cal, who went north expecting to find snow and ice as common as sand in California and frontier towns like a page of Bret Harte's classics, says the Seattle P.-I. Of last Saturday. ln- stead. she had to ride on train seventy miles from COrdova before she found ice in a G-acier and the frontier towns turned out to be ex. traordinary American cities with paved streets electric lights. automo- piles and moving picture shows. 1 wanted to stay there the rest of the summer" she said. Alaska is so different from the opinion had formed of it. Why. the streets are all paved and the stores, with their big plate glass windows, are just like the stores in any American city. And there wasn't any snow or ice to be seen. except on the mountain tops. instead. there was carpet on the ground of wild flowers of a beau ty and luxuriant growth that Cali fornia has never seen."
 Mrs. Graves went north expecting 10 remain week or two at the out side. but found 1t hard to get away after staying there six weeks. She says her main pleasure trip next year will be to Alaska.
