will come over to Yakima he will find
lots of them. There are two sides to a
question, and generally no two parties
can see it in the same light; but we
should not jump at conclusions and
Judge too harshly. II is true we have
had trouble with Great Britain. We
whipped them, and they submitted to it
as they should have done. They came
to US after this is all over with friendly
hand. and why should we not grasp
that hand and be friends? They speak
the same language as we do, and we are
their closest neighbors. And il Germany
had not feared Great Britain while we
Americans had our trouble with Spain
she would surely have given us trouble
at that time. She well knew if she
raised hand toward us that Johnny

should We insult them for things that
happened about century ago by calling
them the bully of the world?-W. l.

AuecdOte Of Moody.

A Yakiman has relatives in Chicago
who at one time belonged to the late
Dwight l.. Moody's Tabernacle there.
On one occasion, he says, the congregs-
ton enjoyed picnic at which Mr.. Moody
forgot his dignity and romped around as
though he were boy again. In crossing
stream the men present had to roll up
their pants to wade through; but staid
old minister, clad in regulation pulpit
suit and high hat demurred to this pro-
ceeding, whereupon Mr.. Moody volun-
tered to carry him over on his back.
When about half way over Mr.. Moody
got tired of his load and without further
ceremony dumped the unfortunate
preacher into the middle of the stream
amid the merry shouts of laughter from
the onlookers.

SUGAR BEET PROBLEM.
D. c. Corbin Pronounees the Waverly Factory
Success.

- T.. SOfplN fTO0OuUSCS tHC VaNNiy
O Success.
The owner of the beet sugar factory at
Waverly, near Spokane, pronounces the
plant success. 1t is modern in all ite
parts and cost nearly 100000. Mr.. Cor
bin, being interviewed IN last Sundays
Spokesms an Review, said, in part:
The average purity of beets received at
the factory this year is S3.72, and the av-
erage sugar contents IA 80 per cent, which
is higher than in most other localities in
the United States.
From nv experience the past season
conclude that the cost Of raising the crop,
including all expenses from first blowing
to delivery of beets at the factory, should
not exceed s25 per acre. The price paid
by me this year was 81 per ton for beets
showing 500 purity and IL to IA per cent
sugar, but owing to the high purity and
percentage of sugar, as proven by this
years crop. | will pay next year 81 for
beets showing II per cent sugar and at
the rate of % cents for each additional per
cent, and this will apply to railroad
points within radius of about 80 miles
from the factory; thus beets equal to
those raised this season will bring $4.65
per ton, and if the farmer can raise IL
tons per acre, as he should do, the &C
count would stand as follows: Twelve
tons OF beets at 81 IS, s55 80; total cost OF
raising per acre, $25. Net profit, $30.SO.
Yakima is a much more advantageous
section than the wheat lands of the Pa
louise for raising sugar beets. Here, with
out any special preparation the average
purity is S6.5 and the average sugar con-
tents 1S075 and this is probably the
highest in the United States.

age OF Recommendations, undertaken
by the author in 1895, in a 4o-foot sloor
built by himself in Buzzard's Bay,
and taken back and forth across the
Atlantic and thence around Cape Horn
and the Cape of Good Hope, without
assistance or companionship. The dis
lance traversed was $4,000 miles, and
the accuracy of the navigator's land
falls throughout was a thing to marvel
at, his chronometer for most of the
time being a little tin clock Of the
cheapest kind. Cant. Socum was a

SINKING FUND DISCUSSED.
Joint Meeting of commissioners and Coun-
cirEFinancs Committee.


The first joint meeting of the Sink
ing Fund Commission and the new
finance committee of City Council was
held last Thursday in the mayors Office
at the City Hail. Thomas e. Young,
John S. Rossell and Harlan G.. Scott,
the Sinking Fund Commissioners
James Kane and M. F. Cannon of the
finance committee, Mayor John O..
Fahey, President of Council William
S. Alexander and City Treasurer Will
liam L. Hamann were present The
principal business was the reference to
the issuing of a new sinking fund loan
of 524, 600 to refund school bonds to
that amount which will fall due Sep
TENDER LIST next. 1t was decided to ask
for proposals for these bonds to be
opened at the city treasurer's office,
August oath. They are to bear per
cent interest and to mature October list,
1913. The advertisement for bids will
be found elsewhere in this paper.
The meeting took up also the report
of the sinking fund commissioners,
made to Council in March last, and
discussed several of the recommends
tions contained therein which were re.
ferred to the finance committee. and
will doubtless receive the attention OF
Council later. These matters include
the correction of discrepancy between
the books of the city treasurer and tho
city auditor which differ by 500 in
the aggregate amount of the outstand-
ing debt shown on the books and the
correction of errors in the numbering of
sinking fund bonds Another matter
was that of sinking fund bond for
81. held by the Wilmington Four
tain Society. This bond was lost, and
at the time of its maturity was paid
by the sinking fund commissioners
upon the society's giving an indemnity
bond to the city and another bond OF
81. 600 to be held as collateral security.
The last mentioned bond fails due
April LIST, 1901, and the question in
voved is whether the city will be re.
lieved Of all liability in case the lost
bond should turn up.
Another interesting question raised
by the report is as to what should be
done with lien of 81, $50 on the VOL
laston School. This lien is bearing G
per cent interest, and it is very desira-
BILE that it should be paid off or the in
terest rate reduced. Heretofore it has
not been possible, owing to legal tech
nicalitics, to relieve the school prop
erty of this lien.

Retires from Secretary and Trcasurership
of the Ferris school : Changes in the
Stan.
The resignation of Wilmer Palmer as
secretary and treasurer of the board of
managers of the Ferris Industrial
School, which had been offered by Mr..
Palmer at the February meeting, was
accepted ut meeting of the board
Thursday afternoon, to take effect Sep
TENDER LIST. Mr.. Palmer has been an
officer of the board since June, 1886.
He retires as an officer on account of
the press Of other duties, but will con-
tinue as member of the management.
His successor as secretary and treasurer
has not been elected
From the report of the executive
committee it appears that Mr.. and Mrs.
A. E. Flint who came from Maine and
Joined the staff of the school when A.
S. Meserye became superintendent
some weeks ago, have been obliged to
give up their positions on account of
tine health of MIR. Flint, with whom
the climate did not seem to agree.
They are succeeded by Mr.. and Mrs.
II. g. Twitchel of Maine. Mr.. Flint
was master OF Division b, and his wife
was matron of the kitchen department.
Mr.. and Mrs. I. E. Pilling, who also
came from New England recently, have
also severed their relations with the
school, and their places are taken by
Mr.. and Mrs. W. ID. Reynolds. Mr..
Pilling was master of Division a, and
his wife was seamstress and laundress.
Since the decision of Chancellor
Nicholson concerning an imperfect com
mitment, an Investigation has been
made, and one other improper commit
mont found. 1t gave the name of the
institution as Ferris Reform School,
instead of Ferris Industrial School.
The mistake will be corrected, the law
committee having charge of the matter.

Col. Hester made no mistake in
awarding the contract to the local firm,
and that the vessel is all that could be
desired. The article also says
(" Everything about the vessel indicates
strength as well as adaptability for
greatest service in cruising" On the
trip from this city to New York the
boat proved herself to be more speedy
