N. P. LEAGUE PUTTING NORTH
DAKOTA ON THE BUM

Mr.. F. A. Sinclair, from Cooper
stown North Dakota, arrived here last
Saturday accompanied by his daugh-
ter who will ike a position in the
Leavenworth State Bank of which
Mr.. Sinclair is president. 1t is not
improbable that Mr.. Sinclair will him
self become citizen of Washington
at not distant day. He says the
Non-Partisan League has been in con-
troll of affairs in his state scarcely
two years and already taxes have
practically doubled and he expects
them to be still further increased. 1t
is his very confident belief that time
will show that the North Dakota ex-
pertinent will prove an eye-opening
failure. He also says hundreds of
people are leaving or preparing to
move out of the state.
There will be services at the Lu-
theran church Monday evening Aug.

MANY CHANGES MADE IN
THE HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING
Being Put in First Class Condition
for School, Which Begins Sep
tember End

Mr.. w. F. Bickel, who for the past
four years has been in charge of the
manual training department of our
public schools and has been re-en-
gagged for the coming year, which, by
the way, opens Sept. End, has en-
ployed his vacation time making some
changes in the arrangement of the
high school building. The room for
merly used as a gymnasium has been
divided by partition, the east half
being now used by the manual train
ing class, in which has been installed
some modern machinery. The west
half has been arranged for a draw
ing and drafting room. Indeed the
entire building has been cleaned up,
repainted and Kalsomined, and when
the work under way is all completed
it will be a model of neatness. Just
now Mr.. Bickle with the help of some
four boys of the manual training
class is employed in building twelve
tables and six desks, all of which are
closed in affairs with drawers and
hardwood trimmings.

RECORD PRICE FOR APPLES

Topping the market for this or any
other season, as far as known, is the
price of $3.25 box, in the orchard,
for $500 boxes of Delicious apples,
paid to Sanderson Brothers, of Yak
ina, for the fruit in their orchard
this season. They sold the entire
crop from 25 acres at a price which
will bring them $4,000, the amount
they paid for the place when they ac-
quired the ranch five years ago.
The brothers today were offered
$2.35, orchard run, for their fruit by
one of the larger shippers in the Yak
ina valley. The deal was tentatively
closed, but when the shipper reached
the city after viewing the fruit he
figured that the price was possibly
too high. He called Sanderson by
phone and began to hedge, only to be
told that the other deal, at an aver
age price of about $3.50 a box had
been closed.

lEAVFNWORTH BOX FACTORY
WAS RFOPENED THIS WEEK
Will Turn Out From 5000 to 5000
Boxes per Day-Blewett Mill Be
ing Rebuilt

The Leavenworth Box Factory will
be operating to its full capacity next
week and will be turning out from
5000 to 5000 box shocks per day says
J. C. Biles the general manager. This
will greatly lessen the feared short
age of apple boxes due to the burning
of the Blewett mill. Some two mil
lion feet of lumber will be brought
down from Blewett and used by the
factory here.
The work of rebuilding the mill at
Blewett has already begun, but as de-
lays are looked for in the shipments
of machinery and other materials it is
not believed the Blewett plant will be
in operation before September 1st.
Logging operations under the di-
rection of Mr.. Mcdonald will continue
thruout the fall and winter in order
to have big supply of logs on hand
for next year.
The apple box shortage in the val
ley is giving many of the growers
considerable worry. The fruitmen
prefer the white pine box but from
present indications, there not being
enough to go round they will have to
use spruce boxes which are said to
be available. The price of boxes has
now jumped to % and 25 cents.

RETURNING BANKERS FOUND
THE BLEWETT PASS CLOSED

A party of returning Chelan county
bankers found that Blewett pass is re-
ally closed on their way home from
the state bankers convention last Sat
urday night says the Wenatchee
World.
1t had been reported that tourists
could get thru at night so Mr.. and
Mrs. F. w. Schultze, Mr. and Mrs.
w. d. Schultze of the Commercial
Bank & Trust Co., and r. B. Field
of the Leavenworth State Bank and
Attorney Nelson made the attempt to
cross over that way.
They got clear over the summit and
were well on their way down this side
considerably after midnight when
they ran into a blockade that effect
ually barred the way.
There was nothing to do but to re-
turn to Ellensburg and traverse the
Colockum Pass. They got to Ellens-
burg at o'clock Sunday morning and
after stopping for breakfast they re-
sumed their journey, finally reaching
Wenatchee Sunday afternoon. They
found Colockum badly cut up by the
unusually heavy travel since the Van
tage Ferry went out, but were able to
get thru without any mishaps.

$500 PER YEAR
APPLES SOLD BY THE TON

The buying of apples by the ton is
the latest method being used by the
fruit buyers. This innovation is be
ing introduced by the Holtzinger
Marsh Co. in the lower valley. This
is a new way of handling apples,
altho soft fruits have been bought in
this way for long time. So far as is
known the above firm is the only one
in the valley buying this way. They
are paying all the way from $50 to
$50 per ton. Mr.. Marsh says:
eve estimate that $50 per ton is
equal to $3.50 per box to the grower.
The grower saves the cost of boxes,
paper, also the labor costs of sorting,
packing, mailing and handling the
boxes. We buy the apples in bulk,
including everything but culls. Of
course the culls are delivered to us
along with the best and we will also
pay the market price for culls, what
ever that may be.
We believe this to be the most sat
isfactory method of handling an apple
crop, both for the grower and the
shipper. The grower avoids the
trouble and worry of hiring a crew
of packers, and the shipper can then
put up the apples according to the ex-
act requirements of his customers.

MORE ARRESTS MADE
FOR MAKING WHISKEY
Max StrOmberg and A. w. Purdy Ia
ken in Tow By Federal Officers
All Released On Bail

Charged with operating an illicit
still and making what is commonly
termed as "Moonshine" whiskey, Max
Stromberg and A. w. Purdy were
placed under arrest last Saturday by
Federal officials who have been work
ing in this district for the past two
weeks. This makes a total of five
arrests made in this vicinity in con-
nection with the uncovering of three
stills located in the Cascade Orchards
near the mouth of Icicle canyon. The
Federal authorities with the aid of
county officials are still collecting ev-
idence and believe they will be able
to bring more stills to light before
leaving the territory. Before making
their raids which began about ten
days ago they had secured lineup on
most of the whiskey makers in this
neighborhood and it is possible that
there will be still further develop
ments.
The bail of Clark and Stevens who
were the first to be placed under ar
rest by the officials was set at $4,000
and $1,000 respectively after a pre-
liminary hearing Monday at which
time they were bound over to the Fed
eral court in Spokane which will meet
some time in October. The bonds of
both men we are told has been ar
ranged for.
Olin Briskey who was arrested last
week was released for lack of evil
dence.
Max Stromberg returned from We
ratchee Tuesday being released on
$500 bonds. Purdy's release is also
expected in a few days.
All four men will be arraigned in
the Federal court sometime in October
and if there is any truth in reports be-
ing circulated in Leavenworth, there
will be long list of local citizens
called to Spokane at that time for
witnesses.

RAILROAD MEN WILL GET
EARLY ACTION ON WAGES
Director General Meets With Dele
gates of Shop Crafts-To Decide.
In. near Future

Early action to settle unrest in the
ranks of railroad employees who have
been demanding new wage increases
was forecast yesterday.
After a lengthy conference with the
representatives of the six shop crafts
Director General Hines went to the
White House to discuss with Presi-
dent Wilson the problems facing the
railroad administration. While no
announcement was made it was un-
derstood that the entire question was
reviewed, including the obvious neces-
sity for an increase in rates or another
congressional appropriation to provide
| funds for any wage advances that may
be made, since the administration has
been incurring a deficit every month
this year due to the falling off in bus
mess and the higher cost of labor and
materials.
Mr.. Hines promised the shopmen's
leaders that he would give careful
consideration to all the facts presen-
ted and would endeavor to reach
| final decision in the near future, indi-
eating that he will order into effect
any changes in the wage scale without
| referring the demands to board for
investigation. The shopmen's de-
mands were presented in the spring
to the board of railway wages and
working conditions, which took ex-
tensive testimony and then divided
evenly for and against raise. Delay
in acting on the demands eventually
resulted in the recent unauthorized
strikes in many sections of the coun-
try.
Leaders of the shopmen, outlining
the reasons for their demands, said
that they did not rest primarily on
the increased cost of living, altho that
was a contributing factor, but were
based on the proposition that the wa
ges of railroad shopmen ought to be
more in line with wages for similar
work in other industries. 1t was
claimed by the union officials that the
wages paid railroad shopmen are ma
terially lower than those paid shop
men in private industries and in ship
yards and navy yards under govern
ment control The minimum rate
paid by the railroads now is So cents
an hour which is asked to be ad-
vanced to 85 cents, an increase of 25
per cent.
Until the shopmen's demands are
out of the way, Mr.. Hines is not tax
ing up the demands of other classes
of employees, all of whom want more
money.
