lows: On order of business-Earl T..
Barnes, J. d. Medill and DR.. P. Frank |;
on platform-W. M. Thompson, Alex
Miller and A. d. Sloan. The platform,
which was adopted without discussion
other than that raised by ]. D. Medill,
who thought the platform meant moth
ing, and that the people" should pro,
mulgate a platform that would be wor-
thy of the party organization, or words
to That effect.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES.

Quite a rifle of excitement has been
created among the mothers on account
Of the visit and inspection of the
schools the past few days by Dr. Frank
the county physician, and his assistants
The Herald investigated the matter
and discovered that the inspection has
been carried on by the health board and
tne city superintendent as precaution-
ary measure. Every winter there is al
most sure to occur some one of the con-
tagious diseases affecting children to
the detriment of the schools, and this
inspection has been had as a preventive
measure to insure effective cooperation
between the health board and the school
authorities.
The sanitary condition of every school
has been investigated and also the pu-
pills have been personally examined by
the inspecting physicians. A rigid set
ef rules are agreed upon and will be en-
forced. Whenever a pupil has been abb
sent from school for more than one or
two days, the absentee's parents will be
called upon by the teacher and the
cause of the absence ascertained; if on
account of any disease the fact will be
at once reported to the health board.
Any pupil absent from school for over
three days will be required TO return to
school with a certificate from the health
officer, that the absence was not occa-
stoned by any contagious disease; and
if absent on such account will not be
admitted unless presenting a certificate
from that officer certifying the fact and
that the scholar is now well and has
been properly disinfected.
Every teacher will daily report all alb
-entees to the city superintendent,
Prof. Selleck, who will at once report
them to the health officer. The board of
school directors consider that if these
precautions are taken the schools will
be the safest place for the children, in

COUNTY DIVISION.

1t appears that county division is a
subject stirring up the dry bones in
some of the towns in the eastern part
of the county.
That the convenience of taxpayers
may necessitate the division of the
county at some future period, is admit
ted. This is purely a business matter
and should be considered in no other
way. There is too much attendant eX-
pense for it to be made either a senti-
mental or speculative proposition. The
greatest good to the greatest number
is the only rule by which to lay off the
boundaries of the new county. We ar,
getting along very nicely now and, on ac-
count of our representation have weight
and influence in the councils of the
State. Shall we forego all these advan-
tages and be put to the cost, inconven-
fence, loss of influence, Just for the plea
sure of building up another county
seat? Are we willing to imperil our
county, on water legislation on a matter
of sentiment if not something more sell
fish?
The great burden will fall it is true
on the separationists and if they are all
really anxious to shoulder the load per-
haps those who remain in the old coun-
~ should have but little to say; provid-
cd the division asked for is to Ie made
on reasonable and agreeable lines. If
there is such a unanimity of feeling in
favor of dividing the county in the towns
down the river, why not take up the
matter like business men? Why do not
the towns of Kennewick, Kiona, Prosser,
Mabton and Sunnyside select delegates
and send them to the county seat, to
meet and confer with an equal number
Of delegates to be selected from this end
of the county, to decide: LIST. Shall the
county be divided; End. Where; Sd,

loose from our friends in the eastern
part of the county, neither do We wish
10 live in a continual turmoil over this
question. 1t is far better to hold the
conference, settle the matter and have
something tangible to act upon.
As it is now and has been for some
years past, this county division boundary
line, is something that advances and re-
cedes with every flood and ebb of the
tide. If our friends down the river arc
determined to set up housekeeping by
themselves, have counted the cost and
are united on the subject, by all means

PEOPLES TICKET ELECTED,
BOND ISSUE IS DEFEATED
riayor Fechter Reelected by rla-
iority of l23-Sewer PROPOSE
ton Again SheIved.

The smoke of the battle, in clearing
away, disclosed some unexpected results
in the election yesterday; not so much
in regard to the candidates as to the
issues-for it cannot be denis ed that the
sewer, drainage and bond propositions
were made issues of. The "People's
ticket was victorious without an excep-
ton. Mr.. Linbarger of the First ward
won over Mr.. Hauser by majority of
46, although he was first nominated by
the "Citizens' convention. Even Will
/ Thompson was successful this time, and
won out by the very gratifying majority
of three for alderman in the Fifth ward.
The expression of sentiment in favor
of Mr.. Fechter for mayor is not to be
misunderstood. The voters of the city
wanted him for mayor again in prefer
ence to Mr.. Rand, and the indication of
esteem and confidence shown by the
majority of 1913 can but be gratifying to
the mayor. Mr.. Nleigs attributes his
defeat by margin of 81 votes to the
fact that great many Of his friends
did not take enough interest in the cleo
ton to go and vote, while Mr.. Forsythe's
friends did
So far as the successful candidates in
yesterdays election are concerned, the
Herald is very well satisfied, believing
that they are all men who will have the
best interests of the city at heart, and
who will look to those interests as care
fully as they would their own. 1t may
be source of qualification for some to
| know that the Herald is satisfied, and
that further, we are satisfied that every
body else will be satisfied with the re-
suits. 1t is this papers opinion, however,
that mistake was made in turning
down the bond proposition, and further
more that in time the mistake will be
seen and admitted by great many who
voted against it.
The Herald was in error last week as
to Mr.. Dele being the probable nominee
for city attorney last Wednesday night.
Mr.. Dele was urged to become candi-
date by parties in both conventions, and
was rendered the nomination, but he re-
spectfully declined for the reason that
he did not at this time desire to be a
candidate for or hold any city Office.
The summarized result is as follows:

case the customary epidemic of scarlet
fever or otner disease should appear,

closing any of the departments. At
present, they state, the city is unus-
ually healthy and these steps are be-
ing taken to have it continue such and
in order that, should necessity arise,
any contagious disease may be prompt
ly stamped out without affecting the
schools or the attendance upon them.
