Intellectual other than ia inducing the legis-
lators to think that Yakima wants this
terrestrial sphere for her own especial
benefit. II she asks for q separate ju-
dicisl district, the speakership of the
house and the desired appropriation for

them it can have no standing, especially
at time when retrenchment and CONSOLE

and the danger is that in the redistrict-
ing Klickitat will be tackled on to Yakima
and Kittitas. Yakima should beware of
asking for too much or she may get moth
