COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, USE.

II was reported to the county commits
sioners that there was So, 900 10 the fund
from the sale OF bonds, which could be
devoted TO the payment Of the bridge
contracts, and on this theory proposals
were received and contracts let on cash
basis. Investigation disclosed that there
was no snch amount, which could easily
have been ascertained at the treasurer's
Office at the time, and now to meet the
deficit it is proposed to take money from
the general fund, the road and bridge
fund, and the artesian well or other funds
to hold for the payment Of the contract
ors. II this Is carried out the commits
eioners will make serious error, although
1t is more probable that they would be
estopped by an injunction. Citizens
hold warrants which have been issued
for two years or more, and 1t is not likely
they win allow the money to be carried
out Of the county by foreign contractors
when they are entitled to precedence.
The warrants drawn on the treasurer
read that they are to be paid tout of the
county funds in your hands, not other.
wise appropriated" and it does not stand
to reason that they will permit a recent
creditor 10 takethe money which is theirs
by all natural right and law.
Again 1t is doubtful II these specia
funds can be appropriated in this way, snt
besides II is serious thing to denude the
treasury In view OF obligations directly
before us Aside from the 81 500 it will
cost for the vault now under construction
$1,000 la interest on our funding bonds
will be due in September, and with no
money to meet this obligation our credit
will receive shock from which 1t would
take years to recover. The commits sion.
ers must make no mistake in this matter
And having been lead into this difficulty
through erroneous statement must get out
OF II the best way they can, but pay the
bridge contractors in warrants even II a
small discount has to be made up.

A aoDEL YikInl RANCH.
A Msguiticeat rarus OF s2o Acres
Devoted 20 Alfalfa, Hops
and Fruit.

On Tuesday The HeRALD representa-
tive had the pleasure Of visiting one Of the
finest farms In Yakima county, that oI
DIR. w. F. Morrison, on the bench south
west OF the city. The doctor has 20
acres nearly all Of which Is table land
and as level as ball room floor. A year
or two ago there was scarcely a yes tage Of
improvement on the place, but with in
domitable energy the doctor went to work
and the result is transformation that is
the subject OF wonder and admiration.
At an expenditure OF sl,l0o he built a
ditch carrying three and half cubic feet
Of alter, planted liJ acres to alfalfa and
% acres to hops. He has several acres
devoted to orchard, aud two or three to
thrifty growing grapes. Eighteen acre s
OF the hops were planted last year and
will yield heavily this season, while the
new yard will well repay picking. All
the hops are under the trellls system and
trained through wire loops from the main
wire. This is a device that DR.. Morrison
worked out and he has every coDsdence
that it will prove valuable. The alfalfa
has made a splendid stand and two and
three cuttings will be made this year.
The doctor is now preparing to build a
large hop house Next year he will in
crease the bop acreage to 30, the alfalfa
acreage ~ 1870, the or'hard to 10 and the
other zen acres will be devoted to resi-.

INDIAN AGENT ERWIN HAS ARRIVED.
ne Will Assume His Dutir. Under
Ausptcteus Circumssances-
L. a sterling Democrats.

Hon. l.. T. Erwin, Of Everett, Wash
ington, arrived here Monday and will
this week assume his duties as Indian
agent at the Yakima reservation. His
reputation as q worthy and meritorious
democrat who has done much to further
the interests Of the party in this state has
preceded him and we are glad to welcome
to our community one who will, we are
satisfied, administer the affairs Of the
Office capab' and with dignity and credit
to himself and the administ ration. Mr..
Erwin came to Washington from the
south more than year ago. During the
period Of his residence in this state he
has so impressed himself upon our peo-
Pile that the confidence, respect and honor
due the tried and true have been visited
in him. His selection by Mr.. Cleveland
as Indian agent here is mark OF special
merit well deserved, his sterling qualities
Of heart and mind jnstifying the almost
unanimous Endorsement OF the state OF
Washington and commencing him favor
ably to the president and the secretary Of
the interior. He comes from an old and
highly respected family in Georgia and
for period lived in Tennessee, where he
was called to high and responsible
Office in the state. OF distinguished
ability as a public speaker to his efforts
can be accredited in no small measure
the successful work done in his county
during the last campaign. He has al
ways been actively identified with the
democratic party and his whole political
record both in the south aud Washington
has marked him as a man Of principle
and rectitude, prudent and sagacious as a
party organizer and leader. Mr.. Erwin lie
an old and intimate friend OF Secretary
Hoke Smith. and his appointment may
well be regarded not alone as a compli.
nient extended by the state Of Washing
ton, but sa testimonial OF confidence and
trust by the administration.
