WIDELY DISTRIBUTED MARKET
NEEDED.

Extensive freight and express
facilities are nece~ sity to the peo-
pie of the Kennewick valley. To
maintain the level of past pro6ta-
bic prices for our early strawberries
cherries and other fruits we must
sell in an overwhelming market
The acreage devo:ed to the grow
ing of these fruits is constantly in
creasing. AT the least calculation
there are 4 times as many as acres
of strawberries in full bearing as
one year ago. This Increase in
acreage will continue for some years
uutil al lands under the ditch are
being titled. The high returns
from our lands come from a sale of
berries at 81 to 81 per crate. At
these prices only the few in each
city, town or community reached
by onr transportation facilities will
purchase these fruit products in
quantities of a few crates in a place.
The price will fail unless the
number of places creating the de-
mand increases in proportion as the
larger acreage increases the supply
To secure the North Coast rail-
way, branch of the Hartman and
Canadian Paci6c systems will dou-
BILE and perhaps treble the marke
we now have. A stronger demand
thus created will benefit every berry
grower in the valley in the higher
price obtained. This is direct ben
fit in dollars and cents.

be compared with good things within,
the commonly called spiritual bless
ings. Enumerated, they are charac-
ter, self mastery. answer to prayer,
content. communion with God-these
and many others; but crowning all is
the bestowa of the '' unspeakable
gift of Christ to mankind. 1t is
He that makes us heir to all. A very
important gift mentioned is that of
victory over self. If ever there comes
clouding Of the Christian love for
his Master, he may at once find the
cause in selfsnness. An old Jewish
legend may well be a parable for us
today. 1t relates that on the resur-
rection morning when the risen Lord
walked away from the empty tomb,
flowers immediately sprang up in
His pathway. Though not true, yet
the story is true both of Christ and
of us. When a man unwraps the
grave clothes of selfshness and goes
abroad in the earth, Easter lilies
spring up in every footprint and the
world takes knowledge of him that he
has been with Jesus and learned of
him.
These are some of the things for
which the true son of God need not
want. All things are his, for his
highest development. The refining
process may be a breaking up, a
crushing process, but the pure gold is
the result. Yet we have so little con-
tidence-real trust. Though we are
absolutely dependent our Shepherd is
absolutely trustworthy. A newspaper
story of boat on the st. Lawrence
is worth repeating. The storm was
so violent that the wa ter was hurled
in waves twenty feet high. and there
was a panic among the passengers.
Unable to control them the captain
selected from their number calm
man and sent him aloft through the
blanket of fog to the pilot house and
asked him to report what he found.
There was the pilot at his wheel,
as if nothing had hap
pened. Learn the lesson. We may
feel that sure destruction is coming
upon us; but remember our Pilot
is safe aloft. and he knows the rocks
and the shadows and the sharp turns
in the river-and he is calm

While the Colby followers failed to elect
enough delegates in any of the ten coun-
ties Of the State in which thsy made an
effort to nominate a legislative candidate,
yet they polled enough votes in each, if
united with the Democracy, to elect every
Senator and Assemblyman nominated under
the reform banner.
And why should they not so unite to ac-
complish desirable public reforms? Is not
good government just as desirable nom a
Democratic as Colby source ? Is the just
taxation of railroad property as compared
with private property less desirable because
the State machine, with its Office holders in
every precinct, have defeated the honest
Republican effort to secure it,
Isn't it just as important that the lobby
that corrupts legislation have a brand put
on it as it was before the Colby delegates
were defeated by the System
Isn't it just as important that the Pri-
mary election law be made adaptable to
the purposes for which it was intended, and
applicable to public needs as before Mr..
Colby was defeated blythe gangs
AS matter Of fact, Mr.. Colby and bis
followers are Democrats but haY'nt yet dis
covered the fact. The reforms they advocat-
ed have been fought for by the Democratic
party in this State before Mr.. Colby was

Equalization to the highest point eyer

year in seven of the townships, raised in
three and reduced in folr. Those that
have reductions are Elsinboro, one cent;
Alloway, two cents; Woodstown, twenty
two cents; Elmer, six cents. Those that
have an increase are City Of Salem, twelve

decrease is caused by the fact that last year
