WHAT SHE THINKS OF HERSELF
Yakima's Increase In Both Population and
Wealth.

Ellensburg Localizer: Yakima is 60
ing ahead with whoop while Ellens-
burg is doing and dreamingly wonder
ing why it is that Yakima has so in
creased in wealth and population the
last few years. Ellensburg, ten years
ago was far ahead of her in population,
wealth and enterprise. Yakima then
had a class OF citizens who were
content to follow cows tail around the
country and live upon the increase.
The people OF this valley had but few
cattle and were compelled to depend
upon the ranches for a living. Yakima
has since let go the cows tail, taken a
number of irrigating bitches out upon
her land, and invited others to come and
settle up the country. At the present
time she has two more bitches in the
course OF construction, one from the
Tietan to cover the high table land ly-
ing between the Natchez river and the
Wide Hollow, the other to cover the
Mckee valley and Rattlesnake district,
living between that and the Columbia
river, which will add many thousand
acres of the best farming land in the
world to their city. What is Ellensburg
doing? Still asleep and dreaming OF the
North Pacific cutoff.

ESCAPE OF ROMEYN.
Officer Writ Falls Asleep on Train
and Prisoner Gains
Liberty.
ARRESTED on CHARGE OF LARCENY.
Being Brought From Chicago to
Rock lsland..PoIiceman
Discharged.

H. L. Romeyn, whose4arrest at Chi
cago for ENLIGHTENMENT on a charge
preferred by the Collier Engineer COM
PAW. was noticed in yesterdays AR
GUS, escaped from the train
on which Officer C. H. Writ was
bringing him here from Chicago. 1t
was about o'clock this morning and
when the train was somewhere near
Morris the officer found himself
awakening from a nap and the prison
er was not in sight.
The train was searched and tele-
grams sent back to towns in the vi
entity, but Romeyn could not be To-
Gated. He was handcuffed and had
on his peson some money and gold
watch.
Romeyn was at one time surgeon
in the regular army stationed at Min
neapolis, and claims to be graduate
of Princeton college. He was en-
ployed by the Scranton School of Cor
respondence, at Chicago, and was
sent here last November to take the
place of J. A. Campbell. who was
discharged. after being found guilty
of misappropriating funds. Romeyn
was a good worker and gave entire
satisfaction up to April, when the Ma
tional Security company, which was
on his bond, became dissatisfied with
the references he had given and
notified his employers that they would
withdraw their security. About the
same time Romeyn abruptly left.
Two Hundred Dollars Short.
Examination of his work, it ia
claimed. showed that during the last
month here he had taken nearly 5000.
The National Security company at
once put detectives on his trail and
he was located a few days ago in Chi
cago, where he had applied for situa-
tion under his real name. A warrant
for his arrest was sworn out by w.
Frank Utt, assistant superintendent
of the school of correspondence for
this district.
Romeyn is a slave to the cigarette
habit and told Officer Writ that the is
also addicted to the use of morphine,
which may in some measure account
for his actions.
His escape led to the dismissal of
Officer Writ from the police force by
Chief Miller.

dence of DR.. J. E. Assay. 1928 Fourth
avenue, issued declaration of prin-
ciples, nominated state officers, and
appointed presidential electors and a
state central committee. The initia-
tive and referendum and imperative
mandate are pointed out as the KEY
to the solution of the main problems
of the hour, and the cooperation Of
labor organizations, reform societies
and churches is asked in securing
their adoption. The following were
nominated for state officers:
Governor-Rev. John Cordingly,
Chicago.

Thomas, Rock Island.

that Francis E Clark, president of the
Christian Endeavor societies of the
United States, has been selected as
candidate for president and Rev.
Charles NJ. Sheldon, of Topeka, for
vice president. A few days ago it
was announced from Davenport that
Mr.. Sheldon had been nominated for
president. The nominees of the ma
tional convention held in Rock Island
some months ago were DR.. Silas G.
Swallow, of Pitts burg, Penn, for
president, and John G. Woolley, Of
Chicago, for vice president. Both
gentlemen declined the honor. DIR.
Swallow required certain conditions
that it was not possible to grant, and
Mr.. Woolley, who has since been
named as the head of the prohibition
national ticket, was not satisfied with
second place.
1t is not known whether Clark and
Sheldon will accept, but Mr.. Benkert
says it is presumed they will, judg-
ing from remarks they have recently
made regarding the necessity for
christian organization along all lines.
They are both in London at present
attending the worlds convention of
Y. P. s. G. f. societies.

FOURTH IN ROCK ISLAND.
Young Americs Turns Loose Batteries
Fires and Accidents.

Rock Island welcomed Fourth OF
July with the booming Of cannon,
tfrecracker and pistol. Young Amer
lea cut loose as he never did before.
He had his store of noise-makers pur-
chased in advance and last night gave
an impromptu overture to the celebra-
ton proper, which started before
dawn today and will continue until

atmosphere.
Business in Rock Island is general
| " suspended and all have entered into
the occasion with characteristic pa.
triotism. County and city offices are
closed for the day, the postoffice had
but one delivery. while the majority
of the merchants shut up shop at
noon. Families with filled baskets
and packages of fireworks could be
seen leaving the city in the early
morning for the various shady spots
along the rivers to escape the heat of
the city for the day. Others took
river trips and railroad trips. or went
to the Watch Tower OF Prospect park,
while still others remained to celebrate
at home.
The only celebration of a general
character in the immediate vicinity
was at Moline. The Rock Island
council attended, as did many ether
citizens. There was large indus
trial commercial and military parade
in the morning. and this afternoon
aud evening there are to be exercises
held at Riverside park. An elaborate
fireworks display is promised for to-
night.
Special features have been provided
at the Watch Tower, to which i'm
mense crowds have been tiocking all
day.
Up to o'clock this afternoon no
serious accident from fireworks had
been reported in Rock Island. How
ever, there were a number of minor
mishaps. such as burnt fingers. etc.
Shortly after noon the fire depart
ment was summoned to Fourth ave-
nue. and Twentv-third street to ex-
,inguish a blaze in house owned by

goods belonging to Huber $3.50.
The fire department later in the
afternoon responded to a false alarm
sent from box So, Twenty-sixth street
and Fifth avenue, where a.fight was in
progress, q citizen mistaking the fire
alarm for the police alarm.

From River to Lakes.

Several weeks ago a Chicago gentle
man, who was riding through Musca-
tine on Rock Island train, observed
the yacht Louise. riding at anchor
near the depot. The gentleman was
so struck with the metrical out
lines of the Louise that he couldn't
rest in his Pullman chair after the
train pulled out. So he jumped off at
the first station. caught the first train
back to Muscatine, hunted up Mr..
Dillaway. the owner. and brought the
Louise at the owners price, which, it
is unnecessary to add, was enough.
The Louise, however, is liable to
add new laurels to her wreath, for in
yesterdays Chicago papers it is an
nounced that she is to enter in the
July regatta of the Columbia Yacht
club, one of the swell organizations
of the Windy City. Over a hundred
sailbcats will take part in the races,
and the fact that the Louise is stand
ing around for first money speaks in
her favor.-Muscatine News-Tribune.
