FOR NICHOLS AND RoSSER.
A Correspondent Suggests Them for
Members of School Board.

Editor Herald-As the date for the
annual school election draws near,
March ;. considerable interest in school
matters is being manifested. This is as
IT should be. and we believe the people
generally are awake to the hest inter
csts OF the public schools. Those who
have expressed themselves are unani.
mou~ly in favor of again placing r. X.
Nichols upon the hoard, a. he has been
a faithful careful and conservative ser
want OF the district for the past three
years. always standing for the very
best interests of the taxpayers and pat
ronS of the city schools, and if again
elected we feel certain that he will
maintain his past record.
There being two places to fill upon
the board at this election. some have
suggested that if, as has been asserted.
Mayor Fcchtcr declines TO longer serve
Rosscr would make very desirable
candidate for the position. The doctor
has been "A resident of the city for the
past fifteen years. and has seen the city
schools grow from an institution of two
rooms to its present magnificent pro-
portions. He has been in close touch
with the schools during these years, as
his son, Leslie, passed successfully from
the first grade to graduation from the
high school last June. The doctor is a
scholarly gentleman of mature years,
and during his residence among us has
certainly proved a man of strong moral
character and sterling worth, and if
chosen to fill such an important posi-
ton by his fellow townsmen will Ger
tainly prove Il very desirable addition
to the board.
We believe that it is the duty of every
voter in North Yakima to see that such
men as Mr. Nichols and DIR. Rosser are
chosen to assist i'll our school legislation

FOR BETTER SANITATION.

The city administration, which prom
ised during the campaign that it would
clean up the town and enforce sanitary
regulations, is evidently determined to
do just that thing. At every council
meeting the matter is discussed, new or
finances have been adopted regulating
the disposition of garbage and otral, and
the street commissioner is sending out
notices that connection with the sewers
will be required. The health officer is
also getting busy, the mayor and coun-
ell have decided to employ an expert to
estimate the cost of the extension of
the sewers and Il drainage system, and
everything that can be done at this time
70 improve sanitary conditions seems to
be receiving attention.
The mayor and the council are doing
the right thing. but in order that the
movement may be successful they are
entitled to and must receive the coop
GRAFTON OF the people. Public sentiment
as expressed AT the pOllS was LOT the
enforcement OF sanitary measures; it
must stand up TO the rack when it comes

1t will be hard on some people, on at
least they will think it is hard, 10 make
sewer connections and clean up their
premises and keep them in that condi-
ton. But it is necessary and must be
done in the interest OF the public health.
And the city officials should be sustain

city certainly needs Il thorough cleaning

The Gle Elum Echo comes to us in an
enlarged form, having been changed TO
IL seven column folio. all home print. 1t
makes a handsome appearance ana is
full of interesting matter regarding the
growing and progressive little city in
which it is published. When Mr.. Chas.
5. Fell, the present proprietor took the
paper only Il little over a year ago. it
was in no manner representative of the
town in which it j. published. Now. how
ever. it can be truly said that if Gle Elum
is as good a town as the Echo is a news
paper, it is undoubtedly one of the best
places of its size on the continent. All
OF which is due TO the interchangeable
energy and ability as a journalist of Mr..
Fell He is one of the best newspaper
men in this state and his town should be
proud of and give loyal support to the

The democratic state convention to
elect delegates to the national convcn-
ton at st. Louis next July will be held
in Olympia on the % of June. 1t will
contain 434 delegates-three from each
county at large and one for each humid
red votes or maio fraction thereof cast
for Judge Reavis at the last election
This basis will give Yakima county a
representation of -. Judge Turner OF
Spokane, whose boom for the vice presi-
Dental nomination is being pushed, will
probably head the delegation. If The
Herald was to make guess as to who
the delegation will favor for president
it would not name Mr.. Bryan. Ii Judge
Alden j. Blethen of the Seattle Times
had his way. the delegation would prob
ably declare for William Randolph
Hearst, but it is difficult TO forecast
what a democrtic convention will do
and the faithful must therefore wait
and see.

\ coroner's jury 1T Victoria, sitting
over the bodies of victims picked up
from the wreck OF the Clallum. has pro-
nounced Captain Roberts guilty of man
slaughter. The investigation held on
this side of the line ccnsurcd him for
carelcssness and revoked his license for
one year. 1t is doubtful whether the
Canadian authorities will have iurisdic
ton TO try the captain, and it is lucky
for that gentleman that they will not.
1t is no trilling matter i'll Canada or
Great Britain when passengers lose their
lives, either through marine or railroad
disasters. They generally succeed in
fixing the responsibility and Furnishing
the guilty as they deserve, and a a re-
suit there are few accidents of this
character in those countries.

According to the Mount Vernon Ar
gus, the democratic state committee, in
session at Seattle last week, considered
the adyisability of nominating Governor
Mcbride to head their ticket for chief
executive. assuming that he would be
defeated in the republican convention.
If the story printed by the Argus is true,
it is incumbent on the friends of Gov
ernor Mcbride to explain. The demo-
cratic state committee would hardly
even consider" the governor in this con-
vention without some assurance from
him or his friends that he is
willing. And if he is willing, the
sooner the republican party is well rid
of him, the better will it be for the or
ganization in this state The story Of
the Argus is printed in another column
of this issue, and goes into such detail
that it is hard to believe a reputable
newspaper would concoct such a yarn.
