favorable and unfavorable to the prop

Hoquiam and Aberdeen for years
have been flghtlner ea-Ji other as only

been apparent ta everyone on Grays

come sooner or latejr.
The two cities are getting nearer to
one another each "year, and the line
of demarcation in the next few yean
will be completwlir wiped out. The
coming of the Guars Harbor Electric
Railway Company has had much to do
with the progress each town Is mak

Inevitable Jololnte of hands. The letter
of Judge PearsuJi favored the cement

idents of Hoquiam and Aberdeen have
been commenting on the proposition.
If the plan of consolidation is brought

any accurate diagnosis of the case or
talk In any manner concerning it.
ilrs. Cosgrove, who is a constant' at'
tendant at her husband's side, talks
very hopefully, as dors Cosgrove him

is being treated to cabinf t steam baths
daily, but it must be admitted that lie
la a very sick man.

have arrived at the springs, seeking
an audience with Mr. Cosgrove. They
refuse to give out any information ex
cept to say that they are confident of
'the patient's ultimate recovery.

markably successful.

statement of the. expenses of the recent

comply with the reqiiirement.s of the

be called for. The law requires a stater
ment from the treasurer of the commit

and Its only reference to the treasurer
is the statement that the secretary re
ceived from the treasurer $1000. This
does not show who contributes the
money, unless the treasurer contributed
it out of his own pocket. One purpose
of the law is to show the sources from
which the political parties receive their
funds. The law also- requires that the
expense account be filed by the treas
urer, who must file a copy of bis vouch
ers. The treasurer is R. E. Williams, of
Dallas.
