lasting impression. II seems now, as
the convention adiourns and the people
90 to their homes, that North Yakima is
decidedly in the load for The capital.
They have presented their claims aud
discussed the matter in an elective
manner, and whilc North Yakima car
ries away no honors ON the state ticket,
it is GENERALLY conceded that her repre-
sentatiyes have done much toward iiX-
ing IN the minds Of the people here as-
5cmbled the superior advantages OF
North Yakima for the capital.
