REPUBLICAN PARTY WILL NOT
ACCEPT BIG CONTRIBUTIONS
Chairman Hays Wants Party Funds
Raised by Small Subscriptions

Washington, May 5-The highest
standards have been adopted by the
republican national committee in the
matter of raising funds to provide for
campaign expenses.
1t is the purpose to abide by the
spirit of the national and state laws
with respect to publicity in the mat
ter of contributions and expenditures.
Small contributions will make up the
needed funds.
A plan of nationwide contributions
in small amounts to provide for the
campaign expenses was announced by
National Chairman viii H. Hays.
Under the plan of Mr.. Hays the
large contribution will be banned.
This plan, which has wide appro-
val among republicans, involves the
decentralization of all money raising
into the very smallest contributions
from the smallest units of territory.
Speaking of the method of raising
funds, Mr.. Hays said: Everyone
recognizes the necessity of meeting
legitimate campaign expenses. There
is just one way for this money to be
provided, and that is by means of
small contributions from the great
membership of the party. This plan
will be followed completely. A gen.
eral committee of ways and means,
acting with Mr.. Upham, the treas
urer, will carry this work into each
state and into the cities and towns
with definite organization for the
raising of money. The purpose will
be to get small contributions from a
great many members of the party.
1t is the plan to have these sustain
ing contributions run from year to
year and in amounts from one dollar
up. No contributions of more than
thousand dollas will be received
from any one"
Mr.. Hays declared the financing
of the republican campaign would be
ali open book, and that it would ac-
cord with the best spirit of the cam
paign publicity laws of the natior
and the states.

IMPROVING RED MOUNTAIN
ROAD

Mr.. Naughten, of the Royal Devel-
opment Co., tells the Echo that the
county road authorities are doing
some good work, and much needed
work, on the Red Mountain road be-
tween the rock cut on the Chewawa
river and Chikamin creek. Two old
bridges have been replaced and two
more are to be built. Altogether, he
says, the work when completed will
very much improve the road. The
company whichc he represents has had
crew of men at work on the road
for the past two weeks. The Chika-
min creek rock cut has been cleaned
out and considerable work will be
done between the Chikamin creek
crossing and the company's camp.
The company to show its good faith
and willingness to bear part of the
expense of improving the north end
of the road, recently mailed a thou
sand dollar check to the members
Of the commissioners court, which
they asked the court to use in better
ing he road from the Chiwawa river
north, but because that part of the
road was in the forest reserve and
out of their jurisdiction, they returned
the check.

JAS JARVIS SEVERELY INJURED
BY DYNAMITE CAP

The eleven year old son of I. G.
Jarvis, James Jarvis, was severely
and painfully injured last Tuesday
morning at the home of his grand
father, ]. R. Ramsey, in Eagle creek
valley, three miles from town, by the
explosion of a dynamite cap. One
eye was put out and his face badly
burned and lacerated, and the fingers
of one hand were lacerated and he
will probably lose part of them. He
was Immediately brot to the Leaven-
worth Hospital, and when he arrived
was unconscious, and remained so for
several hours. Yesterday he was re-
ported better and in a fair way to
complete recovery.
Mr. Ramsey had left some dyna-
mite caps in an clubhouse and the boy
found them and exploded one by
holding it in his hand and touching
it off with a match.

some form their opinions of interna-
tional affairs from the sharp practice
OF courtesy of salesman in a SOU
venir store. Besides, the servile sur
face affability which the German has
affected toward us is calculated to
deceive, and have seen it work.
Happily, the policy of the peace
conference will be governed by no
misapprehension. Germany will not
be admitted to the fold until she has
disproved her unworthiness. | do not
know what will cleanse her. For the
moment she is sick of the hardships
of war, but she still glories in its pos
sibilities. Her children have had no
invading force trample them, and they
have not learned how horrible war can
be. There will be a gradual awaken
ing when the fourth generation of tax
payers finds the sins of their fathers
visited upon them.
There may be some significance in
this incident. Yesterday we were cir
cling over Treves in a black night
reconnaissance ship. When we re-
turned German told me that his two
year-old baby had seen us and had
run with fright to hide under the
kitchen table. He had not forgotten
the bombs of three months ago-and
he will not be quick to build the next
Gothas. Yet last night that same lit
tie lad was being taught to celebrate
William Hohenzollern's birthday!
This has been a wordy effusion. |
am sorry to have imposed it on you
But have seen so much American in
difference here and lack of apprecia-
ton of the situation, and the import
ance of a proper understanding has
so preyed on me that l had to get my
little philippe off my chest. If you
think there is anything of value in it
to people at home, anything novel or
forceful or with the virtue of per-
sonal contact, anything apart from
the daily diet of newspaper correspon-
dents, I wish you would give it to
somebody to publish. l really feel
very keenly about the German ques-
ton, and especially as it has been de-
veloped since the war. Do anything
you like with it, but do help me dis
abuse people at home of any false
ideas about the conversion of the
Hun.

WFNATCHtE VALLEY APPLE
CROP ESTIMATED S795 CARS
Darlington Believes This Years Crop
Will Exceed Last Season's-SOft
Fruits Make Good Showing

Horticultural Inspector P. S. Oar
lington has completed his preliminary
estimate of the probable fruit produc
ton of the Wenatchee district, includ-
ing Chelan, Douglas, Okanogan and
Grant counties, for 1919, says the
Wenatchee World.
He figures a total commercial crop
of 8795 cars for 1919 as compared
with 1910 for 1918, an increase of
about per cent, or 420 cars. 1t is
notable that Mr.. Darlington's early
season estimate last year was $500
cars, the crop overrunning his pre-
diction by $40 cars, due to the abnor-
NAL size attained by the late varieties
of apples.
Mr.. Darlington does not include
in his estimate the culls, as is done
in other fruit districts. Last year
there were about 500 cars of Gull ap-
pies produced and utilized, only 200
cars being shipped and included in
the total crop report.
For the entire district Mr. Darling
ton estimates the total crops as fol
lows, as compared with last years
nrndI1tion.

SPOKANE MAKES BIG PLANS
FOR FARMERS CONVENTION
Attendance Will Run Over 2,000-Big
Program and a Good Time For
All is Assured

Spokane, Wash, June 5-Indica-
tions point to an attendance of 1000
to 1000 producers from the soil at the
big Northwest Convention of Farmers
to be held in Spokane June II to 10.
Responses are coming from all sec
tions of the four northwestern states.
1t is confidently predicted this will be
the biggest convention of its kind ever
held west of the Mississippi.
Realizing that hotels will be taxed
to capacity special arrangements are
being made to accommodate visitors.
Accommodation at rooming houses,
lodging houses and private homes are
being listed. An information bureau
will be opened two days before the
convention at W. Oil Main avenue,
where complete lists of all rooms will
be collected. Visitors who have not
engaged rooms in advance will be di-
rected to this headquarters.
The information bureau will also
have details on the parking of auto
mobiles and on overnight camps.
Permission has been granted by Of
ficials of the Union Pacific for the
use of the space under the viaduct on
Trent avenue for visitors automobiles
during the convention time. The To-
cation will be that formerly used by
the national apple show, and also the
square block to the west. Police Of
ficers will be in constant attendance
to guard the cars and to see that only
out of town persons are admitted to
the enclosure. The officers will also
guard against fire and theft.
Camping grounds have been Sc
cured thru the kindness of the Spo-
kane Interstate fair. Parties are in
vited to bring their tents and make
use of the facilities at the fair
grounds. Free water is provided and
tents may be rented on the grounds.
The Spokane Hotel Mems Associa-
ton has issued a general request that
intending guests make room reserva-
tions at once. All hotels are well
filled under present conditions and
with the big rush of next week the
hotel men are fearful that some regu-
lar guests will be disappointed unless
accommodations are secured in ad-
vance.
During the convention opportunitie
will be offered to visitors to see some
of the factories which produce articles
of unusual interest. The two big
packing houses and the Union Stock
Yards will be a big attraction. Com
bined harvesters may be seen in the
process of manufacture; also seed
graders and other machinery. One OF
the largest candy and cracker factor
les will make special plans for the en-
tertainment of visitors. Farmers
wives will be especially invited to see
how stick candies receive their stripes
and how "kisses" are wrapped auto.
matically.

This does not cover the entire crop
of the district, there being grsome scat
tered points that have not yet been
reported upon.
The early drop is proving somewhat
heavier than usual, but it is really
saving the growers great deal of
money by thinning the fruit.
There is still the late June drop
which should help out little more.
The conditions at present are pro
nounced ideal, except in those sections
where there was excessive damage by
frost The drop will not injure the
crop, but will simply insure good
crop, we'll distributed on the trees.
