Do the Best You Can.

When through life you journey along,
Do the best you can,
TO fill sad hearts with merry song
And cheer your fellow man.
Help to make this old world bright,
Do the best you can,
Always upholding the standard of right
While living your short earthly span.
The poor and oppressed need help each
day,
DO the best you can,
You never again can pass this way,
Trust God, and live true man.

AN IMPORTANT ELECTION.

The News Is constantly harping on the
subject OF North Yakima not receiving
her Just representation in the census re-
turns, but probably the work was as
thoroughly done ~ was possible. The
enumerators were faithful and conscien-
tious in their work and while the show
ing was not rs great as was expected,
there is one important consideration to
be taken into account \ populous sec
tion known as the Eastern addition has
been declared by the courts outside Of
the municipal limits, owing to an irreg-
ularitv in filing the plat. 1t is practic-
ally within stones throw of the heart
OF the city, and all of the residents do
business here, while some of them are
our foremost merchants. This has cut
the urban population down, while not
decreasing the commercial Importance
or actual population of the place. The
greatest damage through this unfortun-
ate state OF affairs is the loss OF revenue
to the city from taxation, while the benz
etits of city residence and city expendi-
lures are largely received by those who
have homes or property in this district
The population of North Yakima may
be still further decreased at the coming
special election called on petition of some
seventy five residents and property own
ers OF the north end OF the city who are
IL l,l
control and taxation. 1t is important
that this matter should receive careful
consideration and a full expression there
of. The registration OF voters has so far
been very light and the time is short in
which citizens will have an opportunity
to obtain the voting franchise on this
question. Ii the property holders Of the
district petitioning for withdrawal have
and are receiving benefits from the city
government in proportion to the taxa
ton then their request should be denied
and they should help bear the burden of
municipal dignity. Their connection
with the city was not compulsory but
the result of request. II they are not
receiving adequate returns or advantages
from the taxation, then in justice they
should be permitted to withdraw 1t is
a matter, as before stated, that is EMIT
led to a full expression OF the taxpayers,
and this cannot be done unless all quail
fy for voting through registration. The
mere loss OF the prestige OF urban popu-
lation is not such serious matter if it
does not interfere with the city's bust
ness Importance, which could not be
done in this instance, but the weight of
taxation should be made as nearly equal
as possible on the valuation Of the prop
ertv taxed and the benefits derived.

For Circulars, Terms, ETC.. Address Soon,

A runaway which threatened to
prove very serious affair occurred at
the junction of Yakima avenue and
Front street on Wednesday afternoon.
A truck team belonging to H. L. Tucker
became frightened at the east bound
train and started off at a furious rate
without any driver The corners and
streets were thronged with people and
the team whirled around and around in
a crazy way and seemed to dash for
those points where the crowd was the
greatest. Several persons were knocked
down and Court Meyer had an exceed
ingly narrow escape but got off with
nothing more serious than rent in his
pants leg The Hotel Yakima bus
which was filled with ladies was in a
dangerous position and the screams
that were sent up from fair Threats were
thrilling. Some level-headed young
fellow managed to jump on the truck
and grasping the lines pulled the horses
into the ditch, the crossing forming a
brake. 1t was very fortunate termina-
ton of the affair.

w. N. Granger, manager of the Wash

says work is being pushed to get the ca

OF the season. In reply to queries he
said: eve intend extending the canal
this year and covering much new terri
tory. We are compelled to take this
step through the rapid sales OF our lands.
When the work will be commenced am

O. Larson and son were to have left
for Seattle Wednesday, with four good
dogs which were to be taken into the
Klondike, but just as they were board
ing the train, an officer stopped them on
complaint of a woman who claimed one
OF the dogs. Mr.. Larson sent his son on
with the remainder OF the outfit, while
he remained to make fight for the dog.
He showed conclusively that it had been
regularly purchased and that the differ
ence of opinion was purely family mat
ter. He got the dog but was delayed for
day.
Chas. +. Bailey, formerly Of THE HER
AID, was a Yakima visitor for few
hours last week. This paper announced
that he had sailed on the steamer Chas.
d. Lane for South America where he
was to represent railroad contractor
during the vacation of a couple of months
granted him by the Seattle firm he has
been with since leaving Yakima. The
announcement was correct, but outside
of the straits the Lane struck heavy
weather and was SO badly damaged
that orders were given to put the ship
about and the bow was pointed shore
ward and preparations made to take
to the boats. A lull, however, enabled
them to make Cape Flattery and after
waiting outside in an extremely danger
GUS position for hours, they finally got
into the straits and were towed to port.
When the repairs are finished the Lane
will again start on the trip and Mr.. Bal
ley will accompany it.

TELEPHONE TYEES IN YAKIMA.

Once,

A number of the tyees of the Inland
Telephone & Telegraph Company were
in the city Wednesday making arrange
ments for the improvement of the local
system and the extension of the long
distance line eastward. Among them
were A. c. Sands, district manager !;
w. j. Philips, auditor; c. J. Cochran,
superintendent of construction, and his
foreman, John Nelson. Mr.. Sands in
formed THE HERALD that they had been
looking all over the city for office facili-
ties on the ground floor but could find
nothing suitable without taking an en-
tire storeroom, and they did not require
so much space. They have an option
on an up-stair room more conveniently
situated but would make further en-
deavor to get what they wanted. The
Improvements in North Yakima will be
of substantial nature and three cars
OF poles have already been received.
There are already about seventy phones
in use and Mr. Sands has contracts for
So more and believes the total number
can be raised to $50.
This morning the driving OF stakes
for line to Yakima City was started
and the work will be pushed with vigor
A line will also be built to the Mckee,
and Mr.. Sands and his associates
viewed the route on Wednesday. The
original intention was to build the main
line eastward via Union Gap, but Mr..
Sands says that while the line will be
somewhat longer they have about con-
cluded To take the Mckee route and
down through Parker, Zillah and sunny
side. Mr.. Nelson remained here but
the others have left with the expecta-
ton Of returning in about ten DAYS.
