W. H. Templemsn.-t1ave returned
from Iowa to remain. l went back to
my old home with view to staying and
engaging in farming. found that farmers
there who own their farms can exc out a
livingr but those who rent, paying "a an
acre rental ard realizing only $6 per acre
after the crop is harvested, find but little
to encourage them in raising corn. With
out a doubt the Yakima country offers
the best inducements of any spot in the
United S ates to those who wish to till
the soil. While in Kansas l met Carl
Browne, who in "a became famous as
1.-THE man who got on the grass" at the
national capital while chief marshal of
Coxev's army. Browne got six months"
for his indiscretion. He is now lecturing
throughout the country on expansion and
illustrating his remarks with off hand
cartoons. Browne though eccentric is no
fool, for he finds large and intelligent
audiences nearly everywhere he goes.
O. V. Carpenter-I have not as yet
been appointed census enumerator for
this county, but from the assurances l
have received from close friends of Sup
ervisor Mires | have reason to believe
that will be named.
DR.. G. j. Hill.-The Yakima delega-
ton at the state convention wasn't in tn g
swim to any great extent and Herb Baker
tional convention, but he is to be made
national committeeman. There are to be

Pleas Bounds.-I am rather disposed
to favor a regular course of bathing, but
/ took bath the other day which was
not at all to my liking. l was fording the
Yakima when my horse stun bled and |
went under his feet. We wrestled for a
while, first one being on top and then the

forces won an easy victory at Ellensburg
and the Yakima delegation was on the
losing side. The change OF twenty votes
would have altered the result and our
side would have named the delegates but
they were not to be had. Charley Sulli-

was very generous and was willing to

Baker will be made state committeeman

John Shearer.-Bryan made a strong
