these was the pet pony OF one of Mr.. Scud-
der's daughters, which had been trained
to kneel down when his mistress wanted
to mountor dismount. Deputy Oily and

Agent Humphrey states that the trade
from the town Of Sunnyside and the

forseen this and have given all encour-
agement in their power to the develop
ment OF the lower country and the estsb-
lishment of towns and trading points. II
is frequently reported that Mr.. McGinnis,
the irrigation company's land agent at
Sunnyside, has advised against trading
with North Yakima merchants and has
thrown the force OF his influence in favor
of buying from the east. II this is fact,
he is pursuing very short-sighted policy
