-jSobre que bases Ell Comisionado

Ell Sr Esteves, creo 70, base su
opinion sobre la opinion de una Conf
sion compuesta de los senores Colon,

ron que ell presupuesto del Gobierno Sc
habia hecho en- Ell alo 1921 y que en-
ese afio los materiales tenian un pre-
clio mucho mas alto que los precios que
tienen actualmente.

-SEs cierto que hoy esos materiales
son mas baratos que en- 1921?
Para cerciorarme de ESQ me puse

Sr. Antonsanti nos muestra un cable

exactamente ell mismo precio para esa
clase de tuberia y Ell cual regia en-

de 1884 ,2293o y Ell mio de $3.50, SAG. go.
-iEntonces Ell Sr, Auffant tenia
precios mas bajos que los de usted?
(-El Sr. Antonsanti nos ensefia sus
precios los cuales son mucho mas ba-
jos para tuberia Y conecciones.)
~ como ell ST.. Auffant pudo ba-

Este es ell punto que yo conside-
70 mas importante porque no ha sido
question de diferencia en- los precios de
los materiales cotizados en- 1921 los
cotizados en- 1923. Donde Ell Sr. Au-
ffant baj6 su presupuesto fu6 en- las

es verdad que Ell presupuesto del Co.

menos cierto que esas zanjas costarfan

WENTWORTH SEES
OROvilCE'S FUTURE.

A Seattle report states that Okla
hogan county sent booster to Seattle
one day last week, in the person Of
John Wentworth, pioneer of OrOville.
Mr.. Wentworth predicted that his
home county would be one of the rich
es. in the state in agriculture and
mineral resources within few
years"
Mr.. Wentworth has correct vision
OF the future The rich natural re-
sources of OkanOgan county are In
their infancy of development and each
year will continue to bring wonderful
growth and marvellous changes.
And OrOville, with it's favorable sur
roundings--its fruit, it's vegetables. its
grain. mineral, power and transporta-
tlOn---is destined to become metro
polls for this section of the state.

county ticket was elected to office
and Mr.. Samson was defeated by Mrs.
s. A. Robinson. He was again a candi-
date in 1902 when w. Il. Gamble first
sought the preferment of the voters
and was elected to serve his first term
as county officer.
At the time Mr. Samson first be-
came school superintendent there
were only about a dozen school dis
tricts in the county. Long trips were
necessary to visit the schools In 1894
Mr.. Samson was travelling to the We
natchee section during the high water
period and found the trail under wa
tel below Chelan. The alternative of
turning back did not appeal to the
county superintendent and he swan
his horse out into the Columbia river,
coming back to the trail quarter OF
mile below. While he was making
this trip the ConcOnully flood occur
red and his house and household eff
fects were swept into the lake. Mrs.
Samson was absent on visit to her
former home in the east. A man NAM
ell Weeks, an employee of the office Of
county auditor was occupying the
house. A log came through the side
of the building and Weeks was unable
to escape until the dwelling was

self by embarking on some DRIFT wood.
While Mr.. Samson was employed at
Oroville, Mrs. Samson served as dep
uty school superintendent and visited
the schools of the county.
Early annual school reports were
destroyed The earliest superintend-
ent's report available now is for the
year ending June 30, 1893, made by
Mr.. Samson to the state superintend-
ent of public instruction. He called
attention to the fact that only lit
tie more than half the children of
school age attended school, Each
school district included from so to 80
square miles and many of the children
lived so far from the school houses
that they could only attend on very
pleasant days.
Prior to coming to this state Mr..
Samson taught four years In Nebras-
ka. He attended the University of
Illinois and was enrolled with the
Glass of 'S6, but did not finish his col
lege course.
Mr.. Samson was born in Illinois,
July 8, 1864. Mr.. and Mrs. Samson

ing the requirements of industrial In
surance funds, TO know about how
many widows will have to be carried
on the pension rolls The Dutch wild
ows 1t seems, do not have much of
chance to remarry for some unex-
planned reason. Therefore it Is neces-
sary to figure that most of them will
remain permanently on the pension
rolls In making up the estimates
for this state the use of the Dutch
remarriage tables has placed the de-
partment of labor and Industries in a
position to take care of great many
more widows than it actually has for
Washington beats the Dutch by big
margin on remarriages.

WHERE LABEL MEANS NOTHING.

A. l.. Williams Of Nespelem, who
was arrested by Customs Officer Tier
ney, of Chopaka, and Federal Agent
Pickett last week at Palmer lake
when his Dodge car was found to be
loaded with 60 quarts of booze. had
in his possession "A supply Of labels
bearing the brand. "Old Canadian Rye
Bottled in Bond"
While we cannot state just what
use would have been made of these
labels it Is known fact that labels
and wood alcohol are easily obtained
and are much cheaper than whiskey.
BY their use the bOotlegger can quick
ly manufacture several bottles Of
white mule with terrific kick from
one bottle.
There is apparently no deed so low
but what those engaged in the Illicit
liquor business will resort to it If 1t
will increase :lieir financial gains.

MARRYING OFF THE WIDOWS.

1t Is about one to four bet that
a Washington widow will remarry,
the department of labor and indus
tries has discovered. Actually the
odds vary, according to the ages Of
the widows, but taking them as a
class one-fourth find another hus-
band. About half of these under for
ty remarry while the percentage is cut
In two when widows pass the 4O-year
age.
Some inkling of what the depart
ment was learning about widows was
given in the bill passed by the last
legislature to increase the cOmpensa-
ton of injured workmen and the de-
pendents of those killed in industry.
The new law, by granting pension
TO a widow, say with five children,
sufficient to keep her and her family
comfortable pretty plainly expresses
the departments conclusion that such
widows hardly ever remarry. Anyway
statistics tend toward that conclusion
The department has awarded pen,
sons to 21O6 dependents of workmen
100 of whom were widows and the
others children. OF the 1900 the de-
partment has been notified 427 have
remarked.
Every time widow remarries the
state saves pension money for her
payments cease. The fact that Wash
ington widows are rather good about
getting a second husband is source
of extra profit to the insurance fund
1t happens that the Dutch are the
only people who ever went to the
trouble of figuring out the odds
against the remarriage Of widow
The Dutch tables are In use In all
American insurance companies and by
such states that have industrial in
surance laws. 1t Is necessary, In figur-

LAW OBSERVANCE.

The observance of the law Is the
greatest solvent of public ills. Men
speak Of natural rights, but I chal-
lenge any one to show where In ma
ture any rights ever existed or were
recognized until there was established
for their declaration and protection a
duly promulgated body Of correspond
ing laws. The march of civilization
has been ever under the protecting
aegis of the law. 1t is the strong de-

Cabbage.

Cabbage is found in the market or
In the home garden in abundance at
this time of the year. 1t Is In fact n
VI getable which may be had greater
portion of the winter months. All the
three important vitamlns are founo
in cabbage, which makes 1t one of the
important vegetables for the diet.
Two suggestions may be given nv
the preparation and cooking of caD-
bage. In order to clean cabbage easily
soak with the head down In cold saf.-
eG water to which has been added u
few teaspoons full of vinegar. This
will cause all the worms or bugs to
crawl out. If the cabbage is cooked In
u large quantity of water with the
kettle uncovered, there will be less
odor to annoy the neighbors.

COOLIDGE FAMILY HAS
 RELATIVES IN ATLANTA
Their Names, However, Are Spelled Differently-Interesting Story of
 the Reason.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 4.-Fred J. Cool edge, Jr., of Atlanta, a cousin of President Calvin Coolidge disclosed today how the error of a printer caused the change in the spelling of the family name.
 The great grandfather of young Mir. Coolidge and the grandfather of the president were brothers. Norman F. Coolidge, great grandfather of the Atlantan, moved to Georgia in 1854.
 The younger Mir. Cooledge said his father voted the Harding Coolidge ticket in the last election but that he and his two brothers. E.. M. and H. N. Cooledge. voted the straight dem ocratic ticket.
 After the war between the states F. J. Coolidge. Sr.. went into the paint business. He placed an order for sta- tionery with 8 local printer who through error printed the name with an ''e" instead of an 'i.''
 Neither Mir. Cooledge nor the print CT was able to stand the small finan- cial loss involved so the head of. the firm thereafter spelled his name with an "e."
 MT. Coolidge has visited the family of F. J. Cooledge, ST.. here several times Seven relatives of the presi- dent live here.

 Known as White Oaks' the farm is one of the beauty spots of Marion.
 Willard Hunt who occupies the Har- ding home under lease, offered to va cate immediately, but Mrs. Harding refused to let him do so. That is the home where the famous front porch" was held.
 The old Marion Civic association, which handled things during MT. liar ding's campaign for office, has been revived to take charge of the funeral plans. Attorney Hoke Donithan, personal friend of MT. Harding has been named chairman. A uniform system of mourning for homes and business places will be worked out.
