COMMISSIONERS DECIDE TO AD-
VERTISE FOR PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS
Must Not Cost Over $4,000 Fully
Completed,

The commissioners last night fl
nally decided to erect a new Jail build
ing entirely separate from the court
house and Auditor Honeycutt was
instructed to advertise for plans and
specifications for a building two
stories in height and provided with
10 cells, with room for IL more
sheriff's office. jailors department
Juvenile cells, female cells and Gull
nary department. Architects OF
Portland, Seattle, Spokane and Walla
Walla will be invited to submit plans
for such a building, to cost complet-
ed and fully equipped, not to exceed
$780, 900. Plans will be accepted on
December 4 at o'clock.
Placed Physician on Salary.
The commissioners this morning
placed County Health Physician c.
3. Stewart on a monthly salary OF
$75 instead of following out the orig
clan so much a trip. An average OF
bills brought in for several years
past by the county physician was
taken and found to be about SIS a
month. Under the new arrangement
DR.. Stewart will be required to visit
all county sick and furnish such
medicines as needed. The change
was made for the purpose of eliminat-
ing numberless small bills for medi-
cines and sundries presented to the
board each month which consumes
considerable time in checking over and
ordering them paid. The health pny-
sician hereafter will be paid on the
first of the month the same as the
other county officers.

WANT THE ARTICLE CORRECTED
Franklin County People Are Aroused
4 Over Newspaper Story.

The citizens of Franklin county are
highly incensed at the recent publca-
ton in the Seattle Times Of an
article written by its Wash
ington correspondent, in which the
charge was made that spectators
were responsible for the delay in the
government taking up the irrigation
projects at Teton and in Okanogan.
1t was alleged that the friends of
Senator Ankeny were endeavoring to
force the government to take up the
PaIouse project in preference to
other projects, simply for the reason
that they owned land that would
come under the government recla-
nation work
Wednesday night the Franklin coun-
ty chamber of commerce held a meet
ing and passed strong resolutions re-
questing the Seattle paper to cor
rect the misstatements it mad printed.
The charges were denounced as be-
ing scurrilous and malicious, and I'M
warranted in the attack on Senator
Ankeny and his friends.

TEST WILL BE MADE OF THE
STATE HORTICULTURAL
LAW.
at North Yakima Will be Car
ried to Higher Tribunal.

Whatever the outcome of the
trial of K. w. Stafford, of North
Yakima. charged with shipping in
fected fruit, the case will doubtless
be carried to the supreme court to
test the constitutionality of the law
providing that all fruit shipped out of
the state must first pass inspection
of the county fruit officer F. A.
Huntley, state horticultural commits
sioner is quoted as saying at Ia
coma.
Il found the apples Stafford had
loded at Toppenish preparatory to
shipping them to North Dakota,
wormy and in very poor condition.
County Inspector Brown was assured
ly right in condemning the entire
shipment and in my opinion Mr.. Stat
ford should be vigorously prosecuted
for attempting to evade the provis
ions of the state law.
Claims Law Unconstitutional.
1.-The entire law will rest upon the
decision of the state supreme court
as to whether the horticultural law
making it misdemeanor to have in
fected fruit in possession and to at
tempt to ship it out Of the state is
unconstitutional, as Stafford claims it
is. Stafford seems to have a good
market for this fruit in North Da-
kota, and it means several hundred
dollars loss to him if he is not per-
mitted to dispose of it.
practically all the fruit dealers of
North Yakima and vicinity Obeyed
the state laws without questioning
them, but if it is found to be uncon-
stitutional a considerable quantity of
infected fruit will be shipped. The
fruit yield in North Yakima was
only about 40 per cent of the av-
erage crop, but prices have about
made good this shortage.''
