prietor of the marble works In that
city, came up yesterday to canvass
our county for the products of his
shop Dawn.
Miss Clara Waugh and Mrs. H. r.
Quinn of North Yakima, spent few
days last week with their parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. James Waugh. Sur
veyor Marble and his assistant, Cur
tbs Green, both of North Yakima,
came down Sunday for the purpose
of surveying Phillips third addition
to Mabton. So great has been the de-
mand for town property that Fred
Phillips found 1t necessary to put the
lots in his third addition on the mar
ket-Sunnyside Sun.
The appointment of Mr.. Cornett of
North Yakima to a place on the
board of normal school trustees will
give general satisfaction in Ellens-
burg; in fact, it was greatly desired
here, and he had unanimous en-
dorsement to the governor. 1t will
be equally gratifying to the people
of Yakima, where Mr.. Cornett has an
enviable standing. That he will be
loyal to the institution goes without
saying. The governor made an ad-
mirable observation-disclosures Cap
ital.
A. johnson, one of North Yakima's
we'll known business men was in the
city yesterday for a short stay. He
has recently disposed OF part of
his interests in that place, and Is
looking over Tacoma as probable
field for investment. He states that
North Yakima is getting ready to
do a big business this year, and he
looks for 1t to be one of the livei!cst
seasons yet recorded. Il do not know
CITY," he said to Ledger repre-
sentative at the Donnelly last night,
that is going ahead any faster than
North Yakima, and very lew can
show a greater growth in the last
few years. There is lots Of building
being done, and new concerns are en-
tering its business field. The only
lumber mill we possess has found 1t
necessary to double it's capacity. l
refer to the plant of the Cascade
Lumber Company, which shut down
few months ago to enlarge and in
stall new machinery. 1t has re-
sumed operations now, and is doing
a greatly increased business. This
is one of the signs by which we con-
clude that our city is coming to the
front among the cities Of the state
Tacoma Ledger.
Mrs. Mary Grant OF North Yakima
ft, tot svr<x

turned to North Yakima Saturday.
F. A. Hall of North Yakima, and one
was in Toppenish few hours last
Saturday, and was piloted over the

ranch, as well as the prospects for
the future prosperity and growth of
penish.--Toppenish Review.

that he will purchase the saloon now
owned by F. A. Martin. Mr.. Cook
returned to the county seat Monday,
and asked the county commissioners
II they would transfer the license

!. H. Dills has been appointed a
deputy county game warden and spe-
cial deputy fish commissioner for
Yakima county by T. r. Kershaw,
who is head Of the game department
Of the state. He received a letter
to that effect this morning, Mr.. Ker-
shaw saying that he is following his
practice of naming those who had
been selected by the county commits
siOners. Mr.. Dills has an idea that
he will resign the position, or rather
not undertake 1t. The deputy warden
and commissioner is now under sal
airy. The law says that the salary
shall not be less than $26 nor more
than 500 a month, and the county
board fixes 1t between these two fig-
ures. A great deal depends upon the
activity of the warden In making the
hunters provide themselves with H.
censes. Mr.. Dills says he does not
want a salaried position. The old
position, as 1t was .elore the law
was put under salary, was about the
only public office he would fill. He
Is interested in the protection of FISH
and game, and ready to give his SER
vices to that end, but the obligations
o. salaried office, considering his
other interests, do not appeal to him.
