COSTS LESS TO LIVE IN EAST
ERN WASHINGTON

One of those fellows who is fond of
figuring says:
"The cost of living for the average
family in Spokane is considerably less
than in the cities of the Pacific coast.
This fact has been determined thru
the compilation of statistics made up
from answers received to 1000 ques-
tionaries sent out by the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce. 1t costs the
average Spokane family of four and
one-half persons $1,251 yearly. The
federal government gives the follow
ing cost of living for the average fam
lily in Pacific coast cities: Seattle
$1,569, Tacoma $1,536, Portland ST.
33S, San Francisco 1,441, Los Angeles
81 ,288.
Living costs are figured on items of
rent, fuel and light, food, clothing,
earfare, insurance, amusements, peri
odicals and incidentals. Medical at
tendance and dental expenses are not
included. The federal government in
up its figures from a general
survey of the United States has estab-
lished general standard of AS MEM
bers to family at cost of $1,343.76
a year.

NO WORK IN IDAHO FOR THOSE
WHO RfNOUNCfD CITIZENSHIP.
Will Be Barred From All Employ
ment-Would Returning Soldier
Work Beside One?

A Spokane news letter advises the
Echo that Idaho is to be no home for
foreign born men who gave up their
citizenship papers in preference to en-
tering the war for the United States.
Following close upon the announce
ment that Atlas Tie Company, of
Coeur dAlene was barring all such
men from its employment comes the
announcement that mining companies,
the Blackwell Lumber Company and
other concerns are notifying everyone
concerned that these slackers cannot
be employed in their plants. Many
former employees were discharged as
soon as it was learned that they had
renounced citizenship.
O. In aShoshone county officials are
prepared to proceed under the Idaho
statutes, which provides that no pri-
vate corporation may employ a for
eigner who has not first declared his
intention of becoming citizen of the
United States.
Reconstruction is the topic of the
hour. All over the northwest meet
ings are being held, speeches deliv-
cred, reclamation plans discussed, CO.
operation of civic bodies arranged.
From small villages to large cities it
is the one big subject uppermost since
peace was declared.
On all sides the fact is recognized
that new construction in every COM
mercial and industrial line is a GER
tainty. There will not only be great
building era in this country, but with
construction virtually at a standstill
over SO much of Europe for four years
there will now of course follow per-
iod of rehabilitation. In the United
States new railroad construction and
repairs alone will provide big mar
ket. In addition to these lines there
are the big reclamation projects pro-
posed by the several states and en-
couraged by the federal government.
In all of this the Inland Empire is
certain to reap substantial rewards.
The intermountain territory received
but scant, if any, profits from the
war. 1t was condition that could not
be changed and the people accepted
the situation cheerfully. Now, with
the coming of all this reconstruction
work, residents Of the Inland Empire
are justified in the feeling of salts
faction that the law of compensation
is to be applied. This region must
provide much of the material needed.

ANOTHER VICTIM OF INFLU-
ENZA

Joseph Ettenborough, employed at
the railroad roundhouse, fell a victim
to the disease after an illness of ten
days, says DR.. Judah, who attended
him. He first developed influenza
which finally turned into pneumonia.
Mr.. Peterborough came here from
Wilbur, Wash, about year ago and
last summer was employed at the big
mill, later taking employment with
the railroad company. He was first
class mechanic and is highly spoken
of by all who knew him. The body
will be taken to Wilbur for burial.
Alonzo Joseph Peterborough was
born in Kansas in 1873 and came to
Washington in 1893. He was married
to Miss Viola Richards March Is, 1912.
Removed to Leavenworth from Ev-
erett last spring. He was a member
of the Odd Fellows, and is survived
by his wife, father and mother and
two sisters and four brothers, two of
whom are in the U. S. navy.
Several new cases of influenza have
developed here in the past two weeks,
but this is the first death from this
cause in two months.

PROTECT THE MANUFACTURER
AGAINST FOREIGN GOODS
Our Laborers Against Cheap Labor
Wages Will be Comparatively
High in This Country

One of the inconsistencies of Mr..
Gompers and his organization is the
attitude of demanding the highest
wages and the shortest hours in the
world and in the same breath advo-
eating that American industries be
left unprotected and at the mercy of
world competition which is not gov
erned by high wages and short hours.
Already the press dispatches show
that millions of dollars of orders with
American firms have been cancelled
by South American countries because
we haven't the ships to deliver goods
and our freight rates are double.
China now that the ship embargo
has been raised, is beginning to pour
its beans and rice into this country.
The same will apply to sugar and
hundreds of other articles.
Call it tariff or protection of indus
try, or anything you like, if American
industry is to maintain its present
scsfe of wages and hours, protection
from foreign competition in some
form must be evolved.
A too high cost of production, how
ever, even tho protected, will shut our
manufactured goods out of foreign
markets as we cannot compete in
price.
Artificial standards have been
raised in this country while we were
shut off from world competition, but
the day is rapidly approaching when
we must get back to normal basis
even if some rulings of wage fixing
boards and price fixing committees
have to give way.
The old law of supply and demand
will soon have its steam roller at work
and it is no respector of man made
regulations, and Mr.. Gompers and all
of his followers can't vary the course
of the roller.

A SUBSTITUTE FOR COAL

A man in this town bought a ther-
mometer one day this week so he
might know how cold the nights are.
His thermometer indicated temper
ature in the room of so in the evening
when he rung it up on post, outside
the door. When he got up yesterday
morning to make a fire about seven
o'clock the thermometer still indicated
a temperature of So, and he imme-
diately got about sixty-three degrees
hot under the collar

WENATCHEE VALLEY RANCH.
ERS BUILDING MANY SILOS

County Agricultural Agent Nickel
says many of the ranchers are build
ing new type of silo which is
cheaper and answers their purpose
from rough, undressed lumber. He
also says many clubs have been
formed for the purpose of co-opera-
lively buying ensilage cutting outfits,
which has resulted in the building of
many dairy barns and an increase in
dairy cows.

WHATS THE MATTER WITH
THE LIGHT"

That was question asked by about
one hundred and twentyseven house
holders yesterday and the day before
On New Years day the lights were
off in the forenoon, and yesterday they
were off practically all day.
Without having his ear very close
to the ground one could hear such
pregnant and pointed questions as the
followin, asked:
"Are the lighting profits so large
that all must figure and no one can
be spared to keep the plant in opera
tion?"
One man wanted McAdoo to take
over the lighting plant to see if he
could do better.
Another wanted to know where
Moses would be now, if he was in
Leayenworth.
Quips and smart saying make peo-
pie smile but they do not improve
lighting conditions. Still, this fact
stands in the way of any satisfying
explanations that might be made by
the company at this time. The ex-
perience, of past winters proved that
some improvement was necessary to
prevent Interruptions in the operation
of the lighting plant under weather
conditions such as now prevail. Why
were present difficulties not provided
against last summer when it was pos
sible and practical to make safeguards
against just such contingencies as now
cause trouble?

THE DAIRY cow BRINGS IN MON
EY EVERY DAY IN THE YEAR

Every man who lives on the land
ought 20 have one or more dairy COWS.
The farmer who goes to town to
buy butter is on a par with the one
who plows with crooked stick. He
goes to town. The cows will bring him
money every day in the year. The
richest agricultural section in the
State of Washington is the dairy sec
ton west of the mountains. This fact
ought to point moral.

WASHINGTON WILL BENEFIT
MOST IN BUSINESS REVIVAL
The Wenatchee Valley Will Get Its
Full Share in the Aftey War
Activities

That the United States will enter
on the greatest era of prosperity after
the war is over-the peace terms
signed-there is not the slightest
doubt. Our friends as well as our en-
emies admit as much. She is the one
and only country whose industries are
on a practically normal basis. She
was in the war only short time and
her finances are on a sound basis with
plenty of money to finance every nee
essary enterprise. She has abundant
food stuffs and the largest crop acre
age for 1919 in her history. Before
the war the United States and Eu-
rope supplied Asia, Africa and South
and Central America with the bulk of
their manufactured goods. For five
years all these countries have been
unable to get their normal supply,
largely owing to lack of ships and
partly because the manufacturing ma
tions of Europe were engaged in war.
Some three thousand ships, great and
small, were sunk during the war.
These must be replaced. Indeed, more
will be required in the future than in
the pre-war period. Untold thousands
of homes, bridges, railroad cars and
structures of all kinds were destroyed
as a result of the war. All these will
have to be replaced and will require
an enormous amount of material of
one kind and another. In the manu-
featuring line England is our only
competitor, but to keep the wheels of
her factories going will require mil
lions of tons of raw material from
the United States. A very large
amount of the timber area from which
Europe drew her building material
was destroyed in the war and will
have to be secured elsewhere. Wash
ington, with other American states,
shipt large quantities of lumber to Eu-
rope before the war. Not to speak of
that required for rebuilding, her nor
NAL needs will be doubled from now
on. People from every habitable part
of the globe will look to the United
States to help replenish their depleted
stocks of goods, wares, merchandise,
building material, ships, food stuff
and raw material of many kinds.
Make no mistake about this. Every
great manufacturer in this country
confidently looks forward to years of
prosperity and is making arrange
ments to get constantly increasing
share of the worlds trade. The one
and only thing upon which he waits,
must wait, because the whole world
waits, is the announcement of the
peace terms. The peace commission
ers are now being pounded on the
back, to use figure of speech, to hur-
ry up the announcement of the terms
to be imposed on the central powers.
Until that is done the business world
will not know how much money the
allied nations will have to spend and
how little the central powers. OF
course, it is also expected that the an
nouncement of the final peace terms
will go far in stabelizing conditions
and help in bringing about orderly
government where now there is an
archy. In three months after the
peace terms are announced business
will be in full swing.
