Sunnysidc Manager for Coffin Bros.
Writes an Entertaining and
Lucid Letter.

Every season the representative
of eastern vehicle houses have been
coming filled up with an inferior
the unwary to purchase buggies and
wagons from them, offering any and
all kinds of inducements. If unable
to pay the cash the prospective buyer
is given to understand that his note
is good, and would be just as accept
able. In this way the country is be-
coming fielled up with an inferior
grade of goods, and the home mer-
chants are made to suffer, regardless
of the fact that he is called upon to
pay his taxes with the regularity Of
the seasons. buy the produce of the
farmer, extend him credit often
times. and support public enterprises
on all occasions.
Chas. S. Wenner, the well-known
manager for Coffin Bros. at Sunny
side, gets after these vehicle houses
in his usual strenuous style. In the
last number of the Sunnyside Sun,
his large ad. contains the following
two letters, which make good read

The recent pooling Of hops in Ore
gon has tended to strengthen the
local market, and growers are hold
ing for 80 cents. The bears are con-
tinuing their tactics to break the
market, but SO far with very poor
success.
According to the Tacoma Ledger,
Pincus & Sons received a cable from
the headquarters in London of the
English syndicate stating that hops
have advanced 2hc as a direct re-
suit of the Oregon growers COM
bine. 1t now seems altogether prob
able that the limit of soc set by the
Oregon men as the price they wanted
will be reached. The 1900 bales
possessed by these producers COM
prised the worlds visible supply of
hops. These are now withdrawn from
sale. The local market is expected
to reflect the English market. and a
raise in prices here is anticipated.
With the hop growers of Sonoma
county, California, in a pool, con-
trolling 1400 bales, which they are
holding under 60-day agreement
for 80 cents, the North Yakima grow
ers in a pool holding practically all
the Eastern Washington hops at zoe.
and the Oregon growers in a pool
controlling 80 per cent Of the stocks
in that state, the situation undoubt-
eddy presents firmer appearance,
the San Francisco Commercial News
says. New York stocks are pretty
we'll cleaned up, only about 1000
bales being unsold, and those in firm
hands, so practically the entire stock
in the country is withdrawn from the
market until prices advance.

fusion and the loss of valuable ad-
vertising.
Horse Heaven was given its pres
ent name in 1880 or 1881 by James
Kinney of Prosser, the first settler
here, who is still a resident of this
city. He had lost his horses, and
after hunting for them for some
time. climbed a big hill opposite
Prosser and found them grazing on
the broad plain sloping from the
crest of the hill to the Columbia
river. Mr.. Kinney, observing for
the first time the fine feeding
ground, naturally concluded that it
was heaven for horses; hence the
name Horse Heaven.
The district is about 100 miles
long, from east to west, with
average width of over twenty miles.
Practically every foot of land is now
taken. about one-fourth Of it being
in wheat. The annual precipitation
is about IL inches; the soil is very
rich, and crop failures are unknown.

WANT TO CHANGE NAME.
Benton County Taxpayers Discuss
Question of Changing Name Of
Horse Heaven.


An open meeting was held at the
Fairview schoolhouse in the Horse
Haven district in Benton county
last Friday, the object of which was
to discuss the question of changing
the name of Horse Heaven to some
thing more euphonious and that
would identify that section more
closely with Prosser.
The movement was started by
some of the residents of the Fairview
district, but the business men of
Prosser are opposed to the change.
Some of them attended the meeting
and urged that no change be made.
They argued tlat tn country is he

A few days before the troupe
was to leave. the elder Conoley call.
ed VIII, and told him he had some
thing to say to him.
A short time before he had given
VIII pair of custom boots, worth in
those days about $500.
He said: ''will. you're bound to go
away with this pesky fool thing; as |
don't want you to wear out those
boots You leave 'em here: get me
your old ones and will re.sole 'em for
you" VIII did SO and on the day of
his departure with the Majestic Min
strels," the old man handed him his
old shoes, remarking: Now know
just how this thing is going to turn
out. You'll get stranded somewhere,
sure as shooting" gr
Conoley tried to make him see it
differently, but it was no use. Con-
tinuing, the old man said:
"If you get broke don't you dare
send to me for money; and want you
to promise me faithfully If you have
to walk back you will rip off those new
soles l. put on for you, as I don't want
my work wasted on railroad ties"
Conoley promised and departed with
the troupe. The inevitable happened.
After more or less exciting trip of
about week the show stranded $50
miles from home.
There was not dollar in the
party, and the disconsolate members
of the "Majestics" sent home for the
necessary coin to get back. All but
Conoley and his chum raised enough
and departed. There was nothing to
do but walk. Will, remembering the
promise to his father, and afraid to go
home If he broke it, sat down by the
roadside and took off his shoe; he
pulled out his pocket knife and rip
ped OFF the sole and, there between
the soles, to his establishment and
joy, lay $40 note. It did not take
long to rip off the other sole and find
its mate.
1t is needless to say Conoley and his
chum, after good meal, went home
in style.
The lesson the old man taught his
son has never been forgotten.
