North Yakima is to be congratulated
upon the manner in which the large
number OF visitors to the city during

was ample room and to spare. Few, if
any, were required to 90 without beds,
and in such cases, if there were any
the people OF the city were not to blame,
for in a number of instances rooms were
engaged by visitors and by the fair COM
mittee to which no guests came or
We're assigned, thus working hardship
on the ladies who had at Inconvenience
to themselves made preparations to open
their homes that visitors to the city
might be comfortably entertained. But
notwithstanding these oversights, North
Yakima did far better than Tacoma did
during the Elks' carnival, when hun
dreds Of people were obliged to put up
at Puyallup and other suburban towns
in order to find accommodations.
