Democratic Convention for Y ak,ma.

Hon. ii. j. Swivel; and wife returned
from Tacoma Wednesday morning. Mr..
Snively was called to the City Of Destiny
on business and remained until the meet
ing of the State Democratic Central COM
mittee, and was largely instrumental in
securing for Yakima the state conven-
ton, which was formally located here by
the committee, on Tuesday. September
g was named as the date OF the conven-
lion which will be at the time of the
State Fair. Railroad representatives are
now figuring on low rate OF fare and il
is believed that a $40 round trip rate will
he given between the Palouse and neigh
boring sections to Tacoma, with stop
over privileges at Yakima. By this means
between thousand and eighteen hun
bred visitors, il is estimated, will be secur-
ell from the northeastern part OF the state,
while an So rate is assured from the
Sound. Yakima will have to spread her
self in the line of entertainment and it is
none too soon to begin to devise WAYS and
means. The Commercial club is the
proper boiy to take this matter in hand
and special meeting should be called at
an early date.

Drowning OF Blake and woods.


On Friday last telegram was received
from n. II. Lille, of Toppenish, stating
that Herbert Blake and Frank Woods
were drowned at the Snipes ford OF the
Yakima river. The body of Woods was
found lodged on a sand bar, opposite the
Fleming ranch, on Monday, by an In
dian and Coroner Taggard after visiting
the scene and viewing the body concluded
that there was no necessity for an in
quest, and ordered the body buried.
Mr.. N. II. Lille was in the citv Wed.
nesday and informed THE HERALD re-
porter that Woods and Blake were in his
employ and left the Snipes ranch, which
he is farming. a couple OF dsvs previous
to the date OF the telegram, to cross the
river at the ford on the way to his home
place at Toppenish. Hearing nothing OF
the bays Mr.. Lille became alarmed, and
more so when he found the horse ridden

Lille called the II men employed by
him from work and set them to searching
along the river. A few miles down the
horse used by Blake was caught. the
saddle being turned, and this convinced
the searchers of the fatality. Mr.. Lille
says that Woods was a dissipated man
and spent all his money in drink, but
that lie was a good worker. He is OF the
opinion that his right name was not
Woods, but that he had left his home in
Wisconsin on account of trouble and
tried to hide lis identity.
