.:oR A MARKET PLACE.
MOVEMENT ON FOOT BY FARM
ERsAND BUSINESS MEN TO
SECURE LOCATION.
Place Needed Where the Vendor and
Purchaser Can Meet and Bargain
for Produce, Wood and Hay.

Many of the farmers and business
men of Walla Walla are agitating the
question Of the establishment of a
general market place in this city. For
some time it has been realized that
in the near future such a place would
have to be provided. At the present
time every load Of produce disposed of
in Walla Walla has to be sold on the
public streets. For many years Alder
street, between Second and Third,
was used by the farmers for this pur-
pose and on Saturday of each week a
large number of wagons Of produce,
wood and hay We're congregated on
this street. AS the city is growing and
business men are rapidly springing
up on the side streets, the farmers
are being gradually pushed on to the
back streets.
Boise City, Idaho has been forced by
the same conditions Lat exist here to
provide a general market place The
matter was taken up by the Boise
city council and an ordinance was
passed to govern the sale of all pro-
duce brought to the city by the far
mers. The market was opened sever
al days ago and is proving very salts
factory.
We certainly need such q place,
said we'll known farmer yesterday,
who had brought to town a load of
produce to sell. LAS it now stands we
are compelled to leave our stuff in our
wagons on a back street and then go
about the business streets looking for
purchasers. A lot could be secured
that would be centrally located and
should be enclosed with a board fence
A set of standard scales could be pro-
vided and every pound of produce or
other stuff could be weighed, by a
competent agent, who should be ap-
pointed by the city countcil. The cost
of fitting up the yard or market would
not exceed more than $500 and l am
certain that the farmers would be will
ing to contribute their share toward
meeting the cost. 1t would prove a
good thing for all concerned. 1t
| would not only keep such loads off the
public streets. but would enable the
farmers to have one central point
where they could take their products
and find purchasers.
The ordinance passed by the Boise
City council provides that all persons
desiring to offer for sale, in wagon
load lots, any hay, wood grain or
other products may use and occupy
the same for such purposes
The ordinance further provides
that such weigh master shall charge
for each load weighed on said scales
the sum of 10 cents, provided, how
ever, there shall be no charge for
weighing the empty wagon before or
after the load. No person shall offer
for sale in wagon load lots in any
street or alley Of the city, any hay,
wood or other products, nor cause or
permit any such wagon load lots of
hay, wood or other products owned or
controlled by him or them to stand in
any street or alley in the city for sale

Private Richard Garvin-"Dick" Gar
vim, as he is Familiarity called by the
baseball fans of the east and his COL
lege chums of other days-did not on
list IN the army last month because
he loved brass buttons or the tran
pings of war. but because he wanted
baseball experience in a new and re-
mote field.
Garvin was signed this year by
"Mugsy'' McGraw, manager of the
New York Nationals, to pitch next sea-
son for the. Giants, but he had already
signed to perform the same service for
three other teams-and that is one
reason why he is now going to the
Philippine Islands to instruct the ma
tlves in the mysteries Of the great
national game. For Garvin has been
blacklisted by the baseball magnates
of this country, and if he stayed in
the United States his only profession
al opening would be in the California
league and he might not catch on
here.
Backed BY Quay.
Backed by a letter from Senator
Matthew Quay, the political boss of
Pennsylvania, Garvin entered the
United States army under suspicious
conditions

and since his entry into the service

since his "rOokey' days in Columbus

pot or trod a sentry's beat.
No Irksome Duties.
To him guard mount duty, policing,
punctual attendance on all disciplinary
rules of the service, and the practical
work of drill field and parade grounds
are unknown. Garvin's baseball ca
reer, that is his career since he sprang
into fast company, began in 1898, in
an all-college team league And he
is now engaged, or will be shortly, in
working up an all-sOldier league From
a salary of $500 per year Garvin con-
sented to play ball for Uncle Sam for
$l3 per month, on the condition that

in his contract.
