At a meeting of the Cooperative asso-
citation held at Sunnyside last week a
committee, composed of William Hitch
cock, S. J. Harrison and A d. Cafferty,
prepared statement Of facts with re-
gard to the health of the district, the
object being to contradict the reports
that Sunnyside is an unhea thy place.
The committee reports that there have
been no deaths there since July l, 1901,
and no deaths from fever since July 1,
1900. They say there have been only
eight or ten cases of typhoid fever in the
past nine months.

WHY 1T SHOULD BE CHANGED.

As an instance of the cause of the con-
fusion in the minds OF outsiders with re-
gard to yakima" and "North Yakima"
the following excerpts from the Ellens-
burg Dawn may be taken as fair sam.
Pile:
H. r crockett and wife made Yakima a visit
this week
\. a. stanton OF Yakima was up on business
Monday
IN. Brown has bought Que of the hotels in
Yakima
Thomas +. McCaastland of Yakima was up
again this week on business.
Lot Durgan of Yakima was in town Thurs
day visiting his mother
j. H. Fetters went down to Yakima a few days
ago On q business venture.
No wonder letters meant for North
Yakima business men and others are adj
dressed Yakima" Very few people
outside the county know there is such a
postoffice other than what is intended
for North Yakima. yakima" Yak
ina City" and cold Town" are one and
the same place 1t has a population of
about 200 and is situated four and half
miles almost due south OF North Yak
ina. The postoffice is simply "Yak-
ima," and supplies only the people liv-
ing within the corporate limits. The
people of the surrounding country are
supplied with mail by rural delivery, ex-
cept in few instances where preference
is given the postoffice ON account of
convenience. Taking all these things
into consideration, there is no reason
why Yakima" should remain four and
a half miles south of its logical location.
There should be no trouble about max
ing change, and if the people of both
places get together no doubt some salts
factory arrangement could be made to
change the existing condition.
In last weeks HERALD a list of SO I'M
claimed letters were advertised as re-
naming uncalled for at yakima" post
office. OF this number two-thirds or
possibly more of the letters were intend
ed for the North Yakima postoffice.
TWENTY-FIVE of them were for we'll
known people of this city, and there is
no doubt that big majority Of the rest
were for transients who were or are
now here. 1t is reasonable to suppose
that the letters addressed yakima"
were intended for North Yakima, be-
cause the list of unclaimed pieces is out
OF all proportion for place the size OF
Yakima" where but few transients are
seen. Another proof OF this assertion is
the fact that from 40 to 80 letters for
North Yakima business men are sent to
Yakima and thence forwarded to this
place daily.
A change is needed, and if the people
will get together no doubt something
could be done to better this vexatious
condition.

Teachers In Session.

The annual county teachers institute
convened in the High school building
in this city Monday. On the first day
the enrolment of teachers was over 80
and by today the list had run up to 100
odd. The program is being carried out
as arranged by County superintendent
:. $. Dickey. But one alteration has
been necessary in the program as here
tofore announced. In place of Prof.
Bryan of Whitman college Prof. Thomp-
son OF the same institution was substi-
tuted. All the other instructors have
arrived and the sessions are being we'll
attended by the people of this city.

Writ Issued.

a writ OF habeas corpus was issued
Monday morning by Judge Rudkin in
the case Of the City against Mccormick,
who is charged with violating city or
dinance. Mccormick had hearing be-
fore Police Justice Lince and was fined
$40. The writ was asked for on account
Of the justice having no jurisdiction, it
being contended that within the eyes OF
the law OF the state and constitution he
is not legally appointed justice. The
deiendents hold that police justice
must be a regular elected justice of the
peace. Mr.. Lince was appointed by
council to fill the place, but he is not a
justice Of the peace. November % is
set as the day for hearing.

elected to present this immortal master
