Directors of Congdon Ditch Meet.

A meeting of the directors of the
Yakima Valley Canal company was held
in the law offices OF Whitson & Parker
Tuesday afternoon, and discussions
touching upon the general improvement
of the canal were INDUCED in.
1t was decided to expend about SIC. 900
more on the canal in order to put in the
very best OF condition. The ditch is
nearing completion, as there are only
200 feet OF f1ume yet to build, and con-
enlargement in a good many
places to be made. The tunnel through
the Painted Rocks is almost complete.
Land under the canal, when it is fin
ished, will probably advance in price.

ATTEMPTS TO SHOOT
WIFE WITH PISTOL.
J. j. Stewart Comes Home In a
Drunken Rage and Attempts to
Kill His Wife.

About Z: 80 o'clock Sunday night, a
man 10y the name Of j. j. Stewart, an
alleged all-round bad man and drunk
ard, in his usual condition, went home
and found his wife visiting a neighbor
across the street. Disappointed in his
expectation, he be an to rail around
and curse. In the meantime his wife,
who is in a delicate condition, approach
ed the house cautiously, anticipating
trouble, and overheard threat against
her life. g. - -, I'll put a
about to open the door and go in to face
the inevitable. She was, of course,
fastened in her desire to leave the
premises by this imprecation and threat
but in her nervousness and wish to get
away quickly she attracted his attention,
and with an oath he rushed to the door
in time to discern the feeting figure
screaming a. the top her voice: "For
Gods sake, save me; save me from
him." When he had opened the door
and discovered his wife running away
he at once pulled hispistol, SO calibre
Smith & Wesson, and fired. The bullet
went wild, however, and she was soon
in the care of friends, Historically pray
ing for them to protect her.
Sheriff Grant was at once notified of
the state of affairs and proceeding with
characteristic dispatch, arrived on the
scene, heard the story and then acted.
He failed to arouse from his slumbers
the man, who had locked himself up in
the house and retired for the evening,
but Selling an AK the sher IF forced an
entrance against the remOnstrances of
neighbors who declared Stewart to be
dangerou, man and one who would GER
played much nerve in bursting into the
room as he did, and but for the fact of
the Intoxicating sleep the man was I'M
dergoing, he would IN all probability
have shot some one. The pistol was
found by his side in bed with two empty
chambers.
A rush order was given him to get his
clothes on after which he was speedily
taken to the county Jail where he now
awaits trial. An examination of wit
nesses was had Monday afternoon which
brought out the foregoing facts and
caused warrant of assault with deadly
weapon" to be sworn out against the
prisoner.

APP0RTIONMENT FOR SHEEP
GRAZING ON RESERVE.
The New System Allows 1881 Sheep
as the Maximum for Any One
Applicant.

The distribution OF sheep grazing lands
following an altogether new system
this year. The lands are now allotted,
and appended will be found the names
and number of sheep the different sheep
men will be allotted to pasture on the
Rainier reserve. In 1902 the applica-
tons filed were for just double the num-
Der of sheep allowed by the department
to Craze on the reserve, and the process
followed in finding just what proportion
of sheep each man should be allowed to
Craze there was to cut the application in
two. Thus the man applying for graz
ing 200 head was allowed to drive 100
head onto the reserve, and the man
with 10000 head was given the privilege
OF grazing 10000 head there. The APP
portion just made, as shown by the lists
issued from the flee Of Commissioner
Shelter, is on an entirely different prin-
est satisiacton-at least to the small
owners. \ total Of ali applications
showed the list to be just 81 per cent
larger than could be accommodated.
The largest application was for 20,00O
and the smallest was for 900 head. To
cut the small men down 81 per cent.
would not have left him with privi-
lege worth accepting, while to cut the
large man down 81 per cent. would still
leave him grazing at public expense
many times the total number OF sheep
the small man had applied for in the
first place Therefore those men owning
but reasonable bands, l. e. such bands
that II all had the same number all
could be accommodated not been
cut down at all. 1t was found by COM
putation that after all the little fellows
had been served, there would be enough
ground left to give each OF the larger
owners grazing for 1881 sheep and this
Is the order issued In the following
lists, all whose applications were for less
than this 1881 sheep, are allowed their
application in full, the rest, whether
their applications be for 10000 or for
1000, are given the privilege for 1881
sheep only.

AS Others see Us

North Yakima, Wash is now wide
open town, or at least will be so within
very short time. A truce has been
entered into by the city authorities and
the gamblers whereby the latter are to
pay $50 month for the privilege of run
ming their gambling tables. For awhile
the gamblers thought the price too high,
but the city insisted on its proposition
Finally, otter long conference, the
men of the green cloth agreed to pay
fines. 1t is not license, but fine to
be collected each month. 1t has also
agreed to collect from prostitutes $40 a
month each.
There are nine saloons in the city,
each one OF which has gambling room
attached. At $500 a year each the sum
OF 5000 will accrue to the city. The
city will be short on funds for 1903 and
this measure OF taxation was considered
necessary to keep above water. Gamb-
ling and anti-gambling was the issue at
the municipal election last December.
The Gamblers won their point but they
must paw dearly for the privilege Sum

about mistletoe is that 1t is supposed

on the point of breaking the conditions

did ring And before he had tackled
