HOSPITAL
UNDER WAY

EXcavating for the new hospital
began this week and the building is
to be completed within 90 days. AS
mentioned heretofore, it is to be but
one story and will accommodate some
twenty-five or thirty patients, with
operating and work rooms up-to- date
in every respect. Whenever neces-
sary other stories may be added, and
it is thought that this will be within
couple years, perhaps sooner The
cost Of the present undertaking, with
the value of the real estate and the
former Adams residence, will be about
$4,000. The new structure will cost
about $4,000 C. F. White, of Spo-
kane, the architect, has taken the con-
tract to complete the structure
The new hospital will be credit
to this district in every way and the
people of this section of the county.
as well as others who feel an interest
in the matter, are urged to come in
and give the project their financial
backing by purchasing a block of the
bonds. With the backing of all who
can afford it, we shall eventually have
great institution here for the care
Of those of us who need to 90 to a
hospital, and it will be the means of
bringing many people here.

COMMERCIAL CLUB LUNCHEON.

The Commercial Club luncheon yes
terday was attended by about thirty
and those present partook of a very
toothsome repast prepared by the
Women's Civic Club. The committee
acting was composed of Mesdames
Hennessy, Town, Walton, Slavin, Tho
lin and Elmer. the latter cashier
Committee reports were made and
communications read.
The principal topic Of interest was
county division and a committee was
authorized appointed to act with COM
mittees from the Peshastin and Dry
den clubs in preliminary work on the
matter.
The Women's Civic Club extended
an invitation to the Commercial Club
members to attend a marty at the K
p. hall which they will give next Wed
nesday evening, Sept. 20. Dancing
and luncheon will be the order of the
evening.
1t was remarked that the ladies
have purchased a fine set of dishes
consisting Of 72 each plates, cups, and
saucers, etc, and congratulations eX-
tended.

children that independence and posi-
tion which we are by right entitled
to. If we fail to fight this out to a
successful conclusion we shall con
tinue to be the butt of the other part
Of the county.
This subject was before the Pes
hastin Commercial Club Wednesday
night and was enthusiastically re-
eeived, though it was deemed neces-
sary that facts and figures be gath
cred and digested before the club take
action upon the matter.
At the meeting of the Leavenworth
Commercial Club yesterday the mat
ter was discussed and a committee
of five authorized appointed to act
with like committees from the Dryden
and Peshastin Commercial Clubs in
making a preliminary canvass of the
matter.

LIGHT VOTE
AT PRIMARY
ELECTION

There was a light vote here in the
primary election Tuesday and this is
believed to have been the prevailing
condition throughout the state. In
Leavenworth, with a light registra-
ton, scarcely half of those who had
registered turned out to vote and in
the outlying precincts there seems to
have been a correspondingly light
vote. Interest centered in the fight
for the United States senatorial nom
ination, and the three local contests
added only slightly to the activity of
workers. The contests for the repub-
lican nominations for sheriff, prose
cutting attorney and county clerk re-
suited in the denomination of Bert
McManus and Sam r. Sumner and it
appears that L. T. Armstrong has
been nominated for county clerk. The
result in this particular case indicates
that although Wenatchee may have
its own little contests It looks out that
someone down there gathers in the
persimmons. The manner in which
the Daily World handed it to G. l..
Swaltz, candidate for county clerk,
seems to admit of no other conclusion.
He was the only man outside the
county seat asking for a nomination,
other than for county commissioner,
and on two separate occasions, in Civ
ing lists of the candidates, his name
appeared among those seeking NOM
ination as county commissioners, as
if outsiders may, because of legal bar
preventing Wenatchee having them
all. seek those Offices and no other.
The vote in Leayenworth by wards
on the principal offices was as fol-
lows.

SCHOOL NOTES.

Little tots of primary age who have
not enrolled by the end of this week
should not attempt to enter school
this winter. School has been in ses-
sion two weeks. and teacher in the
first grade can not be expected, in
justice to the other pupils and to her
self, to take in new pupils after .hc

eleven. Of these the Freshmen class
claims %, the Sophomore class 40,
the Junior class 26, and the Senior

graduate work. According to these
figures the present senior class will
he the largest in the history of the
school, the largest previous being 10.
Miss Leavitt has been appointed
senior class adviser.
A little comparison made Tuesday
morning before school called revealed
the fact that the total enrolment for
this term up to that time was 476, or
five less than the total enrolment for
the first two weeks last year. A few
more will have been enrolled by the
time these notes have been published.
In the high school however. the en-
rollment up to Tuesday morning was
