THE SPECIAL ELECTION.

The council has called a special cleo
ton for the 2Sth of this month to vote on
the proposition of bonding the city for
s6O. 900 for the sewerage and drainage
system. The campaign in favor of the
bonds should begin now and be waged
increasingly until the proposition is car
ried. 1t will require three-fifths vote,
which it will be difficult to obtain, but if
it is not secured it will be one of the
greatest calamities that ever happened
to the city. The drainage is just as es-
sential as the sewerage and the city will
be fortunate If it gets both in one svs-
tenn. 1t must have them. The heavy
taxpayers and business men should take
the lead in creating sentiment for the
bonds. 1t is business proposition for
them to do SO. as another fever epidem-
ic, especially if no steps are taken to pre-
vent it by sewerage and drama. e, will
depreciate the value of property. 1t
will also retard the growth of the city,
to say nothing of saving the lives of the
people. The present unsanitary con-
ditions here are constant menace.
They mu t be improved. This town
cannot afford to 60 on record against it.
If it does, no new people will come in
and many OF those now here, if they can
dispose of their holdings, will get out.
This is the view that should be taken of
the matter. Nothing is of more IMPORT.
ance to the property interests of the
people. Everyone grumbles more or
less about paying taxes, but they would
grumble more if they had nothing to
pay them with. The increased rate to
pay for the sewerage and drainage will
only be trifle. 1t should be paid cheer
fully. 1t is good investment for those
who have property interests here and
they cannot afford to do anything else.
These are few of the arguments that
can be used to carry the election. The
large property owners should begin to
talk them now and keep everlastingly at
1t. Other arguments can and will be
advanced, but the time is short in which
to educate the people to the absolute me-
cessity that is involved in the bond cleo
ton,

CURRENT COMMENT.

There was little incident at the city
council meeting last Wednesday week
that caused some general amu,e-
ment and little chagrin for w. J.
Lince, chairman of the board of county
commissioners. That gentleman, pub
lic-spirited citizen that he is, was put
ting up strong argument against lis
tening to the protest for a cement side
walk on Naches avenue. during the
course of which he remarked that if the
commissioners listened to every pro-
test that came before them the people
wouldn't have a road in the county. To
which Alderman Dudley promptly re-
torted that "he didn't know the county
had any roads" The remark caused
general laugh in which everybody in
dulged but Mr.. Lince. who didn't seem
, to think it was bit funny. it wasn't,
either; but is was apt and true-mora's
the pity. 1t probably isn't the fault Of
Mr.. Lincc altogether that this county
practically has no roads that are worth
the name, but as long as he is chairman
of the beard of county commissioners
he must bear the brunt of the blame
1t is not a laughabe matter. by any
manner of means. Instead. next TO the
health of the community, il is the most
serious problem that now confronts this
town. 1t is largely responsible for the
dulness that the merchants have been
complaining Of. Quite a portion of their
trade has been cut off because their
customers can't get here. The banks
are full of money, the valley has had
splendid crops that sold for big prices
and there is no legitimate reason for
business being dull unless it is the poor
roads. They are an expensive luxury.
The commissioners, it is hoped. urder
the new road law, will improve present
conditions. and in about fifty years
from now. perhaps. our children NAV be
reaping the benefits of better roads.
That is long time to wait. however.
ana the taxpayers now on earth should
be considered. But it is true that the
money now available for road improve
ment won't go very far toward better
ments and if the business men want any
material benefits within reasonable
time they must go down into their own
pockets and make them. The sooner
they realize this the better. Let the
Commercial club tackle the proposition;
it is beyond the power of the commits
sioners to do much within reasonable
time.

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

The trouble between the city council
and the fire department should be adj
justed. The organization OF a new de-
partment, composed of new and mex
perienced men, is impracticable. 1t
will be a year or two at the least before
it will be efficient. A fire department
is to save and protect property, and
whatever may be said OF the one that
has just disbanded, it certainly did that.
The boys took a pride in its efficiency,
were willing to turn out and risk their
lives for the public at any and all times,
and are certainly entitled to more con-
sideration at the hands Of the council
than they have received. This city has
not been paying any too much for the
kind OF a fire department it has had.
If it attempts to organize new one the
taxpayers will pay much for one that is
not nearly as good. Without discussing
the merits of the controversy that has
arisen, The Herald wishes to advise the
council and the department to get to-
gether. Both have the interests OF the
city at heart. There is no question
about that. Let mutual concessions be
made, clear understanding arrived at
and the difficulty be settled. ANY other
course will be foolish on the part of
either side to the controversy. A fire
department is an absolute necessity To
the city. The boys who have composed
it know how to fight fires and are willing
to do this dangerous and disagreeable
work practically without compensation.
They have always been Jealous in the
performance of their duties. The peo-
pie appreciate the good work they have
done. The council also appreciates it,
this newspaper believes, and will he will

free expression of the voters was
stifed by keeping the polls open but ten
minutes and running in over l2O votes
in that length OF time. They deter
mined to carry the matter to the highest
authority in the party-the county con-
venton. They did so. 1t has passed
upon it. And in the contest during the
week that preceded the convention the
methods employed by the ring crowd
for support were disgraceful on the part
of few of the leaders. They resorted
to absolute falsehood. They traduced
men, attacked their characters, INDUCED
in coarse personalities, and hesitated at
nothing to gain support. Because they
had been leaders in the past, they were
enabled to deceive and enlist the assist
ance of minority that should now re-
alize that it was simply used to crafty
the personal ambitions of a few men.
They have grievance against the gov
ernor. 1t is a personal matter. They
attempted to use the party as the means
to allow them to get even.
The men who opposed them did so to
keep the party from being thus degrad-
ed. All good republicans should be
thankful that they succeeded. They
did not resort to either abuse or person
alities. They told no falsehoods. Con-
scious of the righteousness of their
cause, they found no difficulty in enlist
ing support by simply telling the rank
and file Of the party that they were
fighting ring rule and the domination of
a few men. That was sufficient, and
the party has spoken. This should end
the matter. 1t will if the men whose
action was repudiated by Saturdays
convention display any political wisdom.
The victors do not desire another con-
test. All they want in the future is a
free expression of the masses at the pri-
maries and conventions. They do not
want any states made at the former.
Let the primary tickets be selected in
open mass meetings in which all repub-
licans can take part. There is no dis
position to bar any one. The leaders Of
the ring, if they will submit to the will
OF the majority, can still be leaders if
they so desire. Some of them have
ability and possess the attributes Of
leaders. But they will not be permitted

1t has used it wisely and for the party's
benefit. 1t does not desire to use it
again. No more contests are necessary
and The Herald hopes that none will oc-
cur. If they do, however, those who
are responsible will be held "strictly ac-
cOuntable." The Republic is right
about that.

THE LATE FRACAS.

The rank and file OF the republican
party will do well to find out who is re-
sponsible for the unnecessary factional
dissensions that have been inaugurated
recently, and in case there is desire to
perpetuate them, to hold those who are
responsible strictly accountable.-Iak ak
ina Republic.
The rank and file of the party already
knows who is responsible for the con-
tests in the recent primaries and last
Saturdays convention. 1t has fixed the
responsibility. repudiated in convention
the action and certainly will hold the
perpetrators to "strict accountability"
if there is a repetition in the future. AS
to the contest being unnecessary" that
depends entirely upon the point of view.
If the masses of the republican party in
this county are content to submit to the
rule and dictation of two or three men,
then it was unnecessary. Otherwise, it
was absolutely imperative. 1t should
not be necessary again. Ifit is, the YER
dict of the party will be much more de-
cisive than it was last Saturday. And
that verdict was plain enough. 1t meant
that the rank and file will control in the
future and the few individuals who have
been laboring under the delusion that
they are the party should dispel it.
In other words, Yakima republicans
will no longer submit to ring rule. The
10 -,
but the party knows better. The effort
to make it appear that the recent con-
test was merely fight between the ed
itor of this newspaper and the publisher
of the Republic is ridiculous. 1t is more
than that. 1t is an insult to the party.
The republican party is actuated by
gage in such contests from such insight
icant motives. The recent fight on the
part of those whose action vas endorsed
by the convention was for principle.
That principle is the foundation stone
OF the party itself-the right of the peo-
pie to rule it. That is what they are GO
ing to do in the future. They are now
aroused to the necessity OF doing so.
The action of the ring two years ago is
one thing that has prompted this de-
termination. 1t was responsible for the
election of democratic senator in this
strong republican county, for greatly
reduced majority for the candidates for
representatives and for the election of
democratic sheriff. That is certainly
enough damage for one campaign. This
spring the same crowd started out to
dictate and dominate. The delegation
to the state convention was the issue
The stand was taken by two or three in
dividuals that those who did not agree
with them had no rights in the matter

ries and the methods adopted by the
ring in the second ward intensified the

the party was indignant that a

The plank in the republican platform
adopted in this city last Saturday in
reference to irrigation legislation is a
most important one. Especially is this
true of the paragraph in the interest of
consumers of water, favoring law to
regulate the rates to be charged and
liking penalty on any company for
demanding a royalty or bonus other
than the fixed charge for the delivery of
