The School Meeting.

In Pursuance to call issued by
the board of directors of this school
district large number of the tax
payers of this district met in the
school house last evening FOR the
purpose Of discussing the coming
election for bonds. The call for
the election states that bonds are to
be voted for $1,000, $500 of which
is to be used in building a four
room addition to the present build
ing, and $500 to be used in pur-
chasing site south of the railroad.
Some opposition to this scheme
developed after the call was made,
chiefly through the letter published
in last weeks weekly Courier by
Mr.. Sercombe and a petition was
presented to the school board ask
ing that meeting be called.
The meeting was called to order
by Chairman Sonderman of the
school board and w. J. Shaugh-
messy was elected secretary.
Mr.. Sonderman started the dis
cussion by replying to Mr.. Ser
combe's letter. He stated that
the figures he gave at the previous
meeting were those he received
from the county treasurer, and were
based on the 1903 assessment, the
only basis available at that time
He conceded that the figures as Civ
en- by Mr.. Sercombe were correct,
but that they are the 1904 assess
ment and were not 10 be had at the
time he visited the county seat last
fall.
Mr.. Anderson explained the pos
ition taken by the "insurgents."
The contention is that as we now
have an assessment that will per
NIT of the erection of $4,000 school
house on the south side it would not
be wise to spend $500 on all adj
ditlon to the old building as that
building is sufficiently 1aroe for all
demands on it for years to come
should proper building be erected
on the south side. A large number
of the taxpayers expressed them
selves on the subject and the gen
eral opinion seemed to be in favor
OF defeating the bonds under the
present call and holding another
election at once for the purpose of

An Old Timer Returns.

After being away for several years,
and travelling over large portion of
the west looking for a location N. J.
Potter visited Kennewick yesterday
with the intention of making arrange
meuts to locate here.
j Mr.. Potter came to Kennewick first
in 1890 and took up Il homestead in
the upper end of the valley, He, with
a number of other hardy pioneers who
had become familiar with the condit-
ions in the various portions of the
great west, decided that the Kenne-
wick Valley was in every way fitted to
become great fruit and alfalfa dist
rict settled here and laid the foundat-
ion for what we have today. They
fought out the water question to the
completion of the first ditch, and
many are the interesting stories that
Mr.. Potter has to relate regarding that
struggle, or series of struggles.
Mr.. Potter is now located ut Green
acres, near Spokane, where has made
nuite good thing, but he considers
that place now 1T the height of its pros
perity and intends to dispose of his in
terests there and purchase land near
this place. He says he knows every
foot of this valley and believes the day
is not far distant when we will be sell
ling land in the valley for $1,000 an
acre. He says he has, since he left
here visited some of the great alfalfa
growing districts and made study of
the crop, but has never seen a district
that can be considered in comparison
with the Kennewick valley.

Good Evidence of Growth.

The St. Paul & Tacoma Lumber
Cos yard at this place during the
month of January paid to the
Northern Pacific railroad company
nearly $1,000 in freights for lum-
Der unloaded here, and Manager
Baldwin informs us that it has been
a task to get lumber in to supply
the demand. This is just for one
Columbia courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1902-1905, 1905-01-27

yard, and as we have two compan-
les doing business here it is safe to
say that nearly double this amount
of freights was paid on lumber for
the current month, as the Emigh
lumber yard does its share OF the
lumber business for this district.
The building that has been done
here this winter is something phe
nominal and faom present appear
ances there is not likely to be any
falling off for some time to come.
When Judging of the amount of
lumber represented by the amount
paid for freight it is we'll to remem-
Der that Timber for this place only
has to be hauled a distance of about
200 miles so that the rate cannot
be very high.
