THE YAKIMA HERALD.
TUESDAY. JANUARY 2S, 1902.
THE NAIL CARRIERS.
Announcement Of Successful Applicants Made
Last Wednesday by Department

The mail carriers for North Yakima
will be Frank P. Lanterman and Roy
McWain, with w. w. Doty, as substi-
tute. This announcement was made
last Wednesday afternoon when tele-
graphic message came from Washington
City saying who had passed the civil
service examination. The announce
ment OF the successful applicants was SO
long in being made that there seemed to
be doubt Of late whether free delivery
would be established here by Feb. l..
The civil service examination was held
last November and it was expected to
have the appointments made by the first
Of the year.
The two young men appointed are well
known here. Mr.. Lanterman has been
employed on The HERALD as printer
for the last nine months and is worthy
of the position he secured with the gov
eminent. He came from Chicago last
spring with good recommendations and
will make an excellent carrier. Mr..
McWain is son of Mr.. and Mrs. G. A.
McWain Of this city and has been clerk
in the New York cash store for some
time. He is reliable and no doubt will
give good service.
1t has been the plan to have the serv-
ice established by Feb. LIST. but it's a
little doubtful about accomplishing this
end by that time. Many of the fixtures
have not arrived yet, although they have
been on the road some time. The mail
boxes will have to be distributed about
the city in the most advantageous loca-
tions. 1t will require the carriers sew
eral days to become acquainted with
their routes and the system on which
free delivery works. A special officer
will be sent on here to map out the city
in districts and start the carriers on
their routes. With all these things to
be done it may be two or three weeks
before free delivery is working well in
| this city.

Is PoWerIeSS.

The interstate commerce comm ission
in its last annual report made to con-
gress contains some valuable informa-
ton. One paragraph is worth reproduc-
ton as it shows how futile it is for the
commission, with its limited powers, to
do anything effectual. Here's the state
ment:
at is not the business OF this COM
mission to enforce the antitrust act and
we express no opinion as to the legality
of the means adopted by the associa-
tons. We simply call attention to the
fact that the decisions OF the United
States supreme court in the trans
Missouri and joint traffic association
cases have produced no effect upon the
railroad operations of the country. Such
associations in fact exist now as they
did before those decisions and with the
same general effect. In Justice to all
parties we ought probably to add that it
is difficult to see how our interstate rail-
ways should be operated with due regard
to the interests of the shipper and the
railway without concerted action of the
kind afforded through these associa-
TONS"

for taking Mr.. Redfeld in that direction
was that he was under the impression
that his son lived on Third street. He
said the man who held them up was a
total stranger to him, but he gave out
the contradictory information that he
had been with the supposed highway
man before and after the attempted hold
up. Officers Smull and Bland were on
duty that night and arrested Carney
soon after the affair happened. He was
held in jail till the time for the trial at
4 80 p. m. on Thursday. While the cir
cumstances are strong against Carney,
the evidence was not sufficient to hold
him.

What VIII Be Done7

There are a number of land Office
plums hanging in this state and in dis
cussing the matter freely in recent
issue Washington correspondent to the
Spokesman-Review says in part:
"The IA land office positions in Wash
ington are well worth fight on the
part OF aspirants in the different Sec
tons of the state. The salary of both
register and receiver at Spokane, Walla
Walla, Waterville, Vancouver and Seat
tie is $4,000 per annum, while at Olympia
it is $29l2 and at North Yakima $2032.
"What will be done at North Yakima
is hard to say. Naturally it would be
expected that Representative Jones
might control these appointments, and
as he has acted in harmony with Senator
Foster, this much of concession may
be made to him. Walter j. Reed, the
present register, has until June % to
serve, while Miles Cannon. the receiver,
will end his four year term on the 25th
of February.
early action is looked for in some OF
these appointments, particularly those
whose terms are about to expire. In
view of recent developments and the
very much complicated relations among
the several members of the delegation,
it will be an interesting fight from start
to finish"

ATTEMPTED HOLD-UP.
J. W. Redfieid. Aged 80. Victim Of Assault
BY Thug.

John w. Redfeld, father of T. G.
Redfield of this city, was the victim of q
cowardly thug at an early hour last
Thursday morning. While he was
searching for the home OF his son, some
one jumped on his back, but before the
assaulter accomplished his ends he be-
came frightened and ran away.
Mr.. Redfield is SS years old and
arrived here alone on the a. m. train
last Thursday morning. He had come
from Grants Pass, Or, to see his son, Of
this city. This was his first visit here
and he had not notified his friends as to
the time he would arrive. He is rather
feeble::and is deaf When he reached
the corner of Yakima avenue and Front
street he went into Lund's saloon to in
quire about his sons residence. He saw
two men standing near the stove, one of
whom was A. j. Carney. He asked the
latter if he could direct him to Tom
Redfield's house, or to a restaurant
where he could get something to eat.
Garvey answered the old man in the
affirmative and started out to pilot him
to the restaurant across the way on the
avenue. This being closed they started
for the restaurant in the Switzer build
ing on Front street. Whether they
stopped at the latter place is not known,
for the old man could not remember.
T. G. Redfield lives on South First
street, but instead OF going in that direc.
ton Garvey went up Front street to 4
and down A with the intention Of going
over in the northeast part Of town.
When the two men arrived about hall
way down the block, between First and
Second streets on A, third man jumped
from behind the wagons of Wyman &
Frazer standing there and commanded
them to hold up THAR hands and then
attempted to rob the old man.
The circumstances connecting Garvey
with the affair are very suspicious.
Carney was arrested and charged with
the crime, but at the hearing before
Justice ]. c. McCrimmon was dismissed.
In his testimony Mr.. Redfield said he
recognized Carney and that when the
stranger told them to hold up their
hands Garvey stood to one side. The
stranger jumped on Mr.. Redield's back
and attempted to throw him to the
ground, but he yelled murder so loud
that the assailant became frightened and
ran. Carney also ran away, but he
came back in a moment and took the
old man to the Bartholet hotel. turning
him oser to those people and leaving
him there. Carney did not report the
affair to the police.
In his testimony Carney says his in
tentions were all right and his reasons
