The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1895-10-31

One hundred and ten tickets to Port
land were sold at this station to-day, and
together with those who had Transports
ton the number Of excursionists could
not have been less than l25. On con-
sentative estimate this will take from
Yakims not less than $1,000. The exhi-
bition is very creditable one, although
the music is not up to the standard, and
like the Yakima and Spokane fairs is
more than paying running expenses.
This is due in large measure to the ex-
ceedingly low rates given by the railroad
companies, which not only have proven
profitable to the railroads but have adj
mitted of the management of the various
fairs to pay out and have a surplus, and
the merchants Of the enterprising cities
to reap financial harvest.
The trial of those arrested on the Sec
ond batch of warrants charged with vio-
lating the Sunday closing law has been
postponed until November z. The citi-
zen prosecutors have complained Of Pros
ecuting Attorney Englehsrt being dilatory
In bringing the defendants to trial, and
in their unreasoning vigor wanted him to
neglect the murder and other important
criminal trials before the superior court
and give his attention to these petty
cases. This Mr.. Englehart rightly refus-
ed to do and to his credit be 1t said that
he secured conviction in every criminal
case in which he represented the county.
No similar record has been made in the
superior court of Yakima for q number of
years past.

ment company, is in the city comforting

the effect that the change had been made.
