Kennewick has now arrived al
that stage in its career when 1t
Is necessary for its citizens to
take some united action for its
permanent welfare, Like all new
western towns that have great
Inducements to offer TO the
prospective settler, kenucwick
ha. bad u remarkable growth,
and has settled up on haphaA-
gard method that took small no.
.ice Of thc finer details that are
taken into cons liberation when
men settle down to the building
MD Of u town that is intended to
he their permanent homes. In
all new western towns there is Il
rer'ain element of chance and
speculation during the first few
wears that makes thc settlers
negligent of the more snb.tan-
tial Improvements that must
necessarily come if the town is
success. There is nov not the
least doubt in the minds Of any
one as to the success of kenne.
wick, and we should get to work
moulding the place into sem
hlance of what its permanent
aspect should be. The best and
only proper method Of doing
this is to organize the business
men and citizens into II club
and give them powers to do all
they think best for the welfare
of the city, and we suggest that
steps be taken in this direction
without delay. There is going
to be . large influx of strangers
here this fall and We should look
our best when they arrive. We
have II town that has all the ad
vantages they will be locking
for and we should see that
nothing is left undone that will
leave a correct impression Of
what it has to offer in tho way
Of a home and-a business point.
The city council cannot be ask
ed to take all this work upon
itself. The members of the
council have enough to do to
attend to the regular business
of the city, and while they are
doing good work within the
sphere of their duty, we should
MI take up the extra work and
expense involved in putting the
city in its best appearance.

POLITICS AND
POLITICIANS
Meeting of the Supreme Court
Brings Party Leaders
Together Here

The supreme court began its sessions
this morning. and many men present
either as clients or attorneys are lead
ers in their several sections. There Is
consequently considerable drift in
things political about the hotel lob
bies and in private conversations.
Prominent among those present In
Hon. Frank r. Gooding chairman of
the republican state central commit
tee who is here at this time principally
for the reason that he can consult
many OF the party leaders who are here
attending court. The outlook for re-
publicanism in Idaho looks good to
Chairman Gooding who feels assured
that the changes of the past two years
has given the party even stronger
hold upon the state. This coupled with
the fact that Roosevelt lis strong in
Idaho leads Mr.. Gooding to the belief
that the republicans will carry the
state this fall by fully 10000 majority
Mr.. Gooding smiles at the idea that
Senator Dubois will be able to inject
any Of his personal animosity against
the Mormons into the coming cam
paign. Senator Dubois is n clever pol
itician but the people are not taking
his anti Mormon fight seriously. Mr.
Gooding's trip at this time Is to
strengthen party. organization along
the lines which lead to the victory OF
two years ago.
C. w. Beale and Jno. p. Gray OF
Wallace. both attorneys. are present
| with business before the court. Mr.
i Beale il a candidate for congress te
succeed Burton L. French and expects
to carry . majority OF northern dele.
gates into the Moscow convention be-
sides strong following from TN
southern part Of the state. Mr.. Beaie''
friends strongly insist that had he no
withdrawn from the race two years agf
he would have received the nomination
