THE "DINKY" MUST GO.
The trainmen of Washington have concluded that the state has out
grown the swaddling clothes and are now asking the legislature to
make official recognition of the fact by abolishing the "dinky" ca
boose. If they succeed in inducing the legislature to grant their re
quest, the standard caboose will not only add materially to the looks
of a freight train, but will add much to the comfort of the trainmen.
With a standard on the rear, a freight train won't look so much like
the vanishing point of a kangaroo's tail.
OUTSIDERS NOT ADMITTED.
In refusing to accept exhibits made outside the state of Washing
ton for the woman's building at the exposition, the board of managers
have given an incentive to Washington women to show what they can
do. This building will be visited with interest by Washingtonians
who are particularly interested in everything that pertains to the ad
vancement of the state. The unanimous verdict of the men of Wash
ington will be that the exhibit can't be beat.
MAKE THE APPROPRIATION.
Probably the most meritorious piece of constructive statesmanship
initiated by President Roosevelt is in the conservation of- the natural
resources through the concerted action of national and state authori
ties. This action is appealing to congress for official recognition. The
president asks that a fund be provided for its maintenance and the
continuance of this work—a work so far conducted at private expense.
The sum asked for is $50,000, and this is less than one-tenth of the
amount appropriated for private pension bills, which it is well known
are the perquisites of members of the house and senate. Tariff revi
sion is no doubt a very important subject and congress is committed
to action upon it, but there are other subjects that the people of the
United States are interested in. All over the country farmers, busi
ness men and men in the professions are urging congress and will hold
its members responsible for neglect of such important legislation as
may go to preserve the natural resources of the country, or as are
necessary to develop the inland waterways, or establish postal savings
banks, or to develop a parcels post. Congress, by husbanding its time,
can accomplish much toward desirable and even necessary legislation
before the fourth of March next.
THE JAPANESE SITUATION.
Disguise the fact as we may. when the president of the United States
brings the weight of the influence of his office to bear to prevent action
by state legislatures hostile to the Japanese, the question is more seri
ous than a casual thought would indicate. That something will have
to be dt.lie to check the tide of Japanese immigration into the United
States is apparent to everyone. The question is, will the federal au
thorities handle this question more satisfactorily than the local authori
ties? In the nature of the case, the obligation must ultimately rest
with the federal authorities.
Viewing the situation at the present time, either the federal gov
ernment is now pursuing a course of action looking to that end with
which the action of the California and Nevada legislatures is interfer
ing, or else the diplomatic relations between the United States and
Japan are not satisfactory. Race jealousy is a difficult problem to deal
with, particularly when it is combined with commercial rivalry. The
control of the Philippines by the United States will necessitate very
circumspect action in diplomacy and a large navy will help naturally
to .make the pathway smoother.

Wenatchee - Washington
fHE WENATCHEE DAILY WORL D, WENATCHEE, WASHINGTON, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 0, 1900.
The Passing of the Saloons.
Wenatchee has gone "dry." Pull
man, Moscow, Palouse, Oaksdale and
other leading towns of the eastern
part of the state have been "dry"
for some months, and others are pre
paring to follow suit. The moral
wave, as it is called, seems to have
gathered strength by example and
through the efforts of the Anti-Sa
loon League. Possibly the new pri
mary election law has had something
to do with it. At any rate, the fact
appears to be that the saloon ele
ment has (temporarily, at least, dug
its own grave in Washington by a
too general admixture with politics
and a desire to control the same.
This wave may, as has heretofore
been the case, be a "spasmodic" one,
subsiding in time upon the shore of
non-interest and tolerance; but, how
ever that may be, its effects must
certainly impress a lesson upon th*
liquor interests that is not to be
ignored in future. The people are
deciding not to be dominated politi
cally by such interests in city or
country.—Big Bend Empire.
The Bridge Bill Involved.
A bill has been introduced in the
legislature by representative F. T.
Campbell for the division of Douglas
county, says the Big Bend Empire."
While we believe that this division
would not affect this part of the
county nearly as much as the part
to be known as "Big Bend" count/,
we believe we are safe in saying that
at least 75 per cent of the people
are against division at this time ?nd
that those behind the proposition are
endeavoring to get the measure
through for the mere purpose of se
curing the county seat and officials.
Last October, when Mr. Campbeil
was a candidate for representative,
he made the statement over his own
signature that he would not introduce
a bill of this kind if elected. He now
says he was compelled to do so on
account of receiving many petitions
from his constituents asking him to
do ?o.
The people would like to know
who Mr. Campbell's constituents are?
Do all of them reside in the vicinity
of Quincy and Ephrata? Was it this
little bunch of people that elected
him? Had Mr. Campbell stated be
fore election that he would introduce
and work for a bill for county divi
sion he would not now be occupying
a seat in the legislature.
In a letter to Mr. Rogers of this
city Mr. Campbell says that if we
oppose the division bill he will be
compelled to oppose the bridge bill.
No doubt that opposition will carry
with it his own vote, as that is about
as far as his influence will reach.
When a man goes back on his word
to the voters his associates in the
house should know it, and they will.
While the people here are not over
time, yet they realize that it is not
ly strong against division at this
best for all concerned and believe
that Mr. Campbell should have kept
his word with them.
Wenatchee's Prize Land.
! Some of the prize Wenatchee ap
; pies sold in Chicago for 50 cents each
and some of the Wenatchee boosters
have figured out so many apples to
a tree and so many trees to the acre,
and have made it bring $77,777.99.
When asked why he did not add one
more cent and make it even, he ex
claimed: "I am an honest man and
would not add one penny if it did not
belong there." Good for a Wenat
cheeite! Now they claim they have
land worth $77,000 per, and darned
if it don't look as though they were
going to get it. — Douglas County

temporary charge of the hotel, and
when, by process of law, matters can
be straightened out, the building and

Spokane Chamber of Commerce Ex
cursion.
SPOKANE. Feb. 6. —Idaho, Mon
tana and Washington and the pro
vince:* of British Columbia and Al
berta are represented in the second
annual excursion to southern Cali
fornia under the direction of the
Spokane Chamber of Commerce, in
the party being three mayors. C. Her
bert Moore, Spokane; P. S. Scanlon,
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, and William
Cousins, Medicine Hat, Alberta, and
207 residents of various parts of the
Inland Empire. The executive of
ficers of the commercial organization

roe, secretary, who occupies a similar
positiDn with the Washington State
Horticultural Association and the
Spokane county committee of the Al
alsa-Yukon-Pacific exposition.
The special train, composed of
eight standard sleeping cars, two din
ing cirs, an observation car and a
combination baggage car, left Spo
kane the evening of February 5 and
will arrive in Los Angeles at 5 o'clock
the afternoon of February 12, where
; the p irty will break up after a re
ception in the rooms of the Chamber
of Commerce. The excursionists are

various chambers of commerce and
commercial organizations.
Columbia Badly Blocked.
The Columbia is still blocked with j
great jams of ice, which extend in
places for miles along the stream,
i
says he Chelan Leader. However,
on account of the fluctuating stages
of water the ice is steadily breaking J
up an 3 wearing away and if the pres
ent L.vorable weather continues the j
i river may be cleared soon. The Che- j
lan Falls ferry remains tied up.
While the river at the crossing place j
!is free from floating ice a greater
portion of the time, a big jam just \
above the mouth of the Chelan river j
,is liable to break loose at any time, j
and it is deemed advisable to take no |
chances. The scow used by Captain j
Hansen in his river improvement j
work, which was carried away by the;
j ice two or three weeks ago and lodg
ed in the jam in the Chelan rapids,
has disappeared under the ice. As
all the tools and machinery were re
moved from the scow when the ice j
threatened it there was no loss except j
the boat itself.
Pass Irrigation Memorial.
A memorial was passed yesterday
in the state senate asking for the ir
rigation by the federal government
of that part of Douglas county lying
between Moses Lake and the Colum
bia river.

two bills in the legislature yesterday.
One was house bill No. 218, compell
ing coroners to collect money due es

were tried each year, with no bene

cough again put in an appearance
