CITIZENS or WEST SIDE
FORM IMPROVEMENT SOCIETY
Will Work Together to Secure Public
Buildings, a Recreation Park and
Other Things Desired.

The West Side Improvement Club is a
new organization which is designed to
bring about reforms and advances in
many ways throughout the city in gen
eral, but particularly with regard to .ne
west side. In this portion of North Yak
ina are to be found some of the pref
lest residences and these are so situated
that the section of the city in which
they are located can be made as beau
tiful as it is possible for any other por-
ton to be. The building of the trunk
sewer system, when it shall have added
the laterals and connecting lines that
will come in time, will afford ideal SAN
itary conditions and perfect drainage.
and this makes the property owners
feel like expanding money and labor in
the identifying of their homes.
The called meeting in the hall over T.
A. Davis shop on the avenue last We'd
nesday evening was well attended, and
was enthusiastic to marked degree.
Mr. Davis called the meeting to order,
stated its object and urged free ex-
preston of sentiment in regard to the
subject. c. H. Human was elected
chairman and Charles Stats secretary.
Addresses were made by Councilman B.
L. Bull, Robert Scott, George f. Wise,
DR.. Hall, T. A. Davis, c. H. Human and
A. N. Short
A friendly and broadminded feeling
was expressed in all of the talks made.
1t was not the purpose of any of the
speakers to arouse feeling of jealousy
of the east side, nor even seek to take
away any of the buildings or other pub
lie improvements that were contem-
plated in the eastern part of the city;
all agreed, however, that that portion of
the town lying west of the railroad
had been overlooked in the distribution
of favors, and that it was the duty of
all residents of the section involved to
work together harmoniously to secure
improvements that would add to the APP
pearance of their section of the city and
incidentally to the value of their homes.
One of the things most desired by
west siders is public park or place of
recreation. Many favor Mob Hill as
suitable location, and this preference
would undoubtedly be endorsed by all
citizens. The opinion was expressed that
the city should buy land for a park
now, before values advance, and that
the park should be plated and trees set
out at as early date as possible. An
otner needed improvement suggested
was a public assembly hall--some sort
of an auditorium in which public meet.
ings could be held and as many as de-
sired could attend. This, it was thought
the city should build on some convenient
location on West Yakima avenue.
Following lengthy discussion of
plans, in response to request the chair
man appointed committee composed of
T. A. Davis. r. A. Wise and c. H. Hin
man to draw up a constitution and by
laws for the association. These will be
presented and acted upon at meeting
to be neld this evening.

TROUBLE IS ALL OVER.
Suspended High School Pupils Reinstat.
ed and Harmony Prevails.

the recent trouble in the North Yaki-
ma high school has been finally
adjusted to the satisfaction of the
board, the teachers, the pupils and the
parents of the latter. All of the sus-
pended senior class are back in their
places, and satisfaction is general over
the fact that the supremacy of the law
has been sustained. The facts have
abundantly shown the wisdom and dis
erection of the action of the board, and
it is admitted by many who expressed
positive opinions one way or the other
at the time the trouble occurred that
mad it not been for the sensational re-
ports circulated here and in other parts
of the state, the difficulty would have
been settled within twenty-four hours
after it first manifested itself.
It is only just to all concerned to say
that the statement to the effect that
a lack of harmony existed among the
teachers, tine board of directors and the
superintendent was absolutely without
foundation; all the parties concerned in
this matter with whom the Herald re.
porter has conversed denounce this re.
port as a Islander.
No school in the state is progressing
more rapidly with it's work. or under
more favorable and promising condi-
tons. The best of results are being oh
tanned, the discipline is excellent and
in every department the utmost har-
mony prevails.

the hands Of his own father, John

view OF developments after Mondays

has been the topic Of. nversation

sympathy Is expressed for the father,
because of the fact that 1t has been

OF his son by drunken carelessness or
by the impulse Of sudden blind way

to decide.
John C,egg was at once arrested and

TIE LAW OF TREspAss
A Bill Passes tho House Chappipe
tho Existing Conditions.

The House spent the whole Of last
Friday morning in discussing bill to
prohibit trespasslpg on peoples lauds
MIR. Beamgusrd explained that this
OIL reVerses existing conditions. The
Ia" as to posting" land requires the
owner to publish notices in The county
paper for four weeks and to put ur
signs on four sides Of the land. The
b II will make trespass unlawful with
out posting" being necessary.
Mr.. Irby made au lmpessione6
speech against rich men who owr
thousands Of acres Of land trying tC
keep their poor and honest nelghbors
from shooting on their lands when
they bring rich men here from the
north and let them shoot all they
want.
Mr.. Ardrey, author of the bill, de-
clared Mr. Irby's argument to be en-
tirely In favor Of the bill. Why should
not these people go to work and then
they wouldn't need to be potteriug
around on other peoples land shoot
ing the best friend the farmer has
the bird-which destroys the vcrmin
which kill the crops.
MIR. Toole Thought the bill too dras-
tic 1t is useless legislation and will
make 1t u misdemeanor for man
merely to walk across the land Of an
other, even In ipc1rprrated cities
Mr.. Hamel declared that Mr.. Irby's
objection Is met, because the bill will
not prevent MAJ from getting the
consent of the owner of the land, ard
1t Is, but proper and right that one
should secure such conseI t, no matter
what Is the law.
Mr.. lrby again attacked the owners
Of large estates by citing the case OF
an individual in Laurens who has
wrecked Door men and acquired their
property, and 1t would be unjust tt
give such men the right To keep these
poor men from hunting on untcnantet
lands.
Mr. Labau Mau.d;n Of Pickens re
piled with equal earnestness that nc
man would deny a poor man permis
sion to hunt on his lands 10 keer
the poor man In meat. He favored
the bill.
Mr.. Morgan of Greenvllle declare
that this bill Is no innovation. II
merely enacts the law but In differ.
ent form. In reply to a question fr. N
Mr.. Irby, Mr.. Morgan declared that
If man pays for piece of land his
constitutional rights thereon should
hot be taken away from him
The bill as 1t finally passed to a
third reading provides: That from
and after the approval Of this act, any
person or persons entering upon the
lands OF another, for the purpose OF
hunting, fishing, trapping, netting
gathering fruit, vegetables, herbs, OF
cutting timber on the same without
the consent OF the owner or manager
thereof, shall he deemed guilty Of a
misdemeanor and, upon conviction
thereof, shall pay fine Of not less
than five nor more than twenty dol
lars, or be imprisoned at hard labor
not less than ten or more than thirty
days for each and every offense."
