The benefits OF the recent excursion of
Seattle business men to this city can
hardly be realized. That Yakima's Wis.
itors were pleased with their reception
and the country is shown by set OF fiat
tering resolutions passed by the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce and by the &C.
counts published Of the visit in the daily
and weekly papers. Not satisfied with
this valuable advertisement of our re-
sources, the business men have pur.
chased massive. solid silver. gold-lined
loving cup which Is to be presented to
the Yakima Commercial club as token
of appreciation OF courtesies received.
Instead Of speaking in Yakima as was
his intention. owing to the republicans
cornering the only available hall, James
Hamilton Lewis addressed large aud
fence in Spokane on Tuesday evening
The republicans were more considerate
and courteous in that city and instead of
acting the pig and jumping in and block
ing the way to fair discussion of the poll
tical issues they gave what was already
theirs to the democrats, and the Silver
Knight with his Golden Whiskers re-.
ceived rousing reception. The action
of the Spokane republicans casts a reflec.
ton upon the policy pursued by those OF
the same party in Yakima.

and always to the satisfaction of the
public, and is one of the oldest and best
combinations on the road. This season
1t has been in the east and has met with
deserved success. Mr.. Blttner is strongly
supported in his various casts and assur-
ances are given that the comedies and
dramas presented, with the speciality
performances between the acts, will give
satisfaction to all. A continuous per-
Torrance is novelty to Yakima but
those who have travelled in the east and
have visited the large ceuters OF popula.
ton realize the advantages accorded
through such entertainments.
