The Gateway To YelldMsel

Tourists to Yellowstone Park now
joy the novelty Of entering the Park
through the imposing stone arch recent
~ erected at Gardiner, the cornefstont
of which was laid by President Roose
welt during his visit to the Park in April.
The Northern Pacific trains now use
the new railway station nearing com
pletion at that point, and which is with-
out doubt the most Unique and infer-
esting structure Of its kind in the conn-
try. The station is large aud cofnmodis
Gus, and was erected at cost of 500 ,00O, .
including the arrangemeht and bealiti-
flying of the grounds. II is supplied
with all modern convcniences, and the
grounds adjacent have been matte At
tractive by the planting OF trees and
lawns. 1t is located upon the banks Of
an artificial lake, the water OF which is
brought from the Gardiner river as it
rushes out Of the Park into the Yelcw.
stone. The water is as pure as crystal,
and will be used to supply Gardiner
with fire protection and for domestic
purposes. The depot is constructed in
rustic style, and is both interesting and
attractive. The railway company has
| joined with the government in making
the surroundings about Gardiner, the
gateway to Yellowstone Park, an att
| tractive feature OF the park tour.

While the constant rumors Of
the agreement between Hartman
and Hill and the subsequent open
ing of the Seattle market to
the southern road over the north
ern tracks tend to strengthen the
belief that the o. h. & N. will
build through to Lewiston from
southern Idaho it might be we'll to
make sure of transportation by
helping put in the electric road.
Then the steam road can come
when it gets ready. There is
plenty of work here for both roads
to do and the one that can build in
soonest is the one to be backed
strongest. This country wants
transportation badly and all assis-
lance should be given to the road
affording it first

six months after the signing of the con-
tract by the state. 1t will be extended
to a total length of III miles or double

STATE IS UPHELD BY
GENERAL LAND OFFICE
Selection of Land for Reclamation I'm
der Contract With the Sunnyside
Company Approved by
Government.

Recent dispatches from Olympia state
that $685. acres of Yakima county
land will be turned over to the state
by the federal government for recama-
ton by an extension of the Sunnyside
canal under contract to be entered into
between the state and the Washington
Irrigation company, who are the own
ers of the canal The news was re-
ceived with joy all over the county, es-
pecially in the lower portion. the land
in question lies just across the river
from Prosser, at the terminus of the
extension of the Washington Irriga-
ton companys canal. The decision
means that all of the above land will
be reclaimed, much of which is tribu-
tary to Prosser. In addition, as much
more land will be reclaimed by that
company for the Northern Pacific. the
irrigation company is under contract
with the state to start the work within
six months and complete it in two
years. Action by the interior depart
ment in assigning the lands to the state
is now but a matter of form to be car
ried out upon the correction by the
state of some minor defects in plats
and maps filed in Washington.
In approving the petition of the state
the commissioner of the general land
Office dismisses protests filed by the
Yakima development company and the
Industrial Protective association, of
Yakima county. The selection has been
bitterly fought by the Yakima Devel-
opment company, rival company of
the Washington Irrigation company
former desired to secure the same lands
from the government for an irrigation
scheme of its own and enlisted the SYM
patty of number of prominent bust
ness men of Yakima county. The resi-
dents of the eastern part of the county
Where the proposed selection of lands
is located have favored by resolution
and active endorsement the attempt of
the state to secure the lands for state
purposes.
Under the proposed contract with the
Washington Irrigation company, the
lands selected by the state will be sold
at $40 per acre after the purchaser has
acquired from the canal company wa
ter right at an expense OF $50 per acre.
The lands WILL therefore, cost with
water on them about $50 per acre in in
stallments if desired, of which the state
will get ne-fourth. Similar lands UNI
der the Sunnyside ditch are now said
to be worth $50 and S75 per acre. Be
sides the $1,000 acres to be thus dis
posed of, the state will have a number
of sections of common school lands UNI
