MILHAM OUGHT TO RESIGN.

Wenatchee World, Oct. 90: George
W. Milham, chairman of the board of
of county commissioners of Chelan
county, has pulled several stunts
lately that may lead to a request for
his resignation He is charged with
having liquor in his possession, being
drunk and disorderly. breaking tho
moral code in another important par
ticular; attempting to bride an officer,
and later was performing his sworn
duty. All of these charges are not
set out in the papers which lead to
his arrest, but there are enough which
can be proven to substantiatc basis
for immediate action by the proper
authorities. To save any further
disgrace which Milham has brought
upon himself, he ought to forward his
resignation at once to the other mem
bers of the board.

The federal prohibition director of
this state is quoted as stating that he
fears that Washington will be food
ed with booze as a result of the "wet"
vote in British Columbia, and is plan
ming to have the state adopt more
stringent legislation and bemoaning
the smallness of his force Of deputies
to combat the flood. He also expires
ses the belief that the state prohi-
bition law is invalid. since we have
national prohibition. The vote in
British Columbia indicates that the
prohibition craze has about run its
course and to get through legislation
in Washington, or even in congress
to further bolster up the cause is
likely to prove colossal undertaking
for fully ninety per cent Of the voters
are looking for someone to take the
lead and bring about submission Of

In a little less than two months
from now we will be ready to
celebrate the glorious 4th of
July, and in contemplation Of the
same leading men and women OF
Lincoln County have been cast
ing about for a suitable place to
stage the celebration.
In conversation with repre-
sentative parties from each local
ity there seems to be a united
opinion in favor of holding the
celebration at Noeal, which of.
fers the best advantages of any
place. under consideration. First,
il is the most centrally located.
Second. the Nogal Canyon with
tie beautiful Walnut grove is an
ideal place for a picnic ground.
Outside of this, there is plenty
Of room for base ball games,
broncho riding, roping, and other
sports which will be included
among the days amusements.
A committee will, it is under
stood, be appointed shortly whose
duty it will be to arrange for
speakers and a full progrs Il of
sports of different kinds which
will give the people of Lincoln
County a day Of enjoyment they
could not duplicate by going
elsewhere. Good music will be
ON hand to enliven the occasion
and a platform will be built in the
grove for dancing. The commit
tee will begin early SO as to adj
wise the people of the celebra-
ton 70 that there will be no need
going to other places in search
Of pleasure on the National holt

Fort Bayard Hospital

1t is a sense Of satisfaction to
know that the military hospital
at Fort Bayard is to be formally
opened May Is; it is also graft
flying to know that had it not
been for Senator Fall that insti-
tuition would now be in the state
of Colorado. Political de-
magogues sought to have ii dis
banded and removed TO that state
but Notwithstanding the fact
that they had almost accomplish
ed their purpose, the Now Mex
leo Senator hurried to Washing
ton to enter his protest which
after teing considered by the
proper officials Fort Bayard was
allowed to remain in the Sunshine
State.
The situation of the Fort is the
very best, the altitude best for
patients at'all times Of year No
excessive heat causes discom-
future during the sum m
months and the winters are
not extremely cold, which makes
Fort Bayard an ideal place for n
military hospital. Let as hope
that politics may never again
seek It's removal.

Virginia has 2iG.O0O acres planted
In tobacco this year. the largest
acreage ever recorded in the history
OF the State. according to estimates
Just completed by Henry NJ. Taylor,
OF the Bureau of Crop Estimates in
virginia. Prospects are also bright
for the largest price for the crop
ever recorded in the history of the
country.
During the 500 years OF tho to-
bacco Industry in the State there
nave been many interesting changes
IN the price received by growers and
inc fortunes of tobacco and tobacco
nists. Virginia led in the production
or tobacco from the settlement OF
America at jamestown until the War
Bctween the States. The first census
produced 81 per cent. or more than u
third of tine national total OF to-
Dhcco grown. and In 1859 the last

North Carolina is now close com
pctitor. Virginia remained in Sec
ond place until 1899. when she waa
ousted by North Carolina.
In tho five years between 1914 and
1918 North Carolina produced Is per
cent and Virginia II pcr cent of The
total tobacco raised In America.
Little Information is at hand re-
garding the prices Of tobacco before
the bureau OF Crop Estimates was
established in 1853, and began MAX
ing an annual estimate of the aver
age price paid for the produce OF tho
country.
However. it Is recorded that tho
jamestown tobacco sent TO England
in 1GlS and 1920 brought a price OF
5f ID cents q pound. but in 1859 the
price had fallen to cents pound.
and by 1864 to , cents, 4 price of
L. cents is recorded for Virginia
and Maryland tobacco in .,1730. and
this appears TO be the lowest price
ever received by the growers.
The average selling price in 1S47
has been estimated to havo been 6
cents pound. OF 1S49. cents a
pound, and in 1853 10 cents pound.
In tho decade. 1865 to 1874. the

the average was cents. Thcrca ftcr
