Perhaps the thing having the great
est bearing upon the future develop
ment of the state was securing the
approval and adoption by the govern
ment of three irrigation projects in
Washington, to-wit:, the Okanogan
project, the Tieton project and the
Sunnyside project. The total allot-
ment of money made by the secretary
of the interior for the completion of
these three projects is $2,950,000.
Congressman Jones, by reason Of
his residence in the irrigation dis
trict. and his superior knowledge re-
garding these projects, took the lead
in the work necessarily done in secur-
ing the approval of these vast projects
and the necessary allotment of money
to complete them However. each and

Sheriff Grant returned from Soda
Springs Friday evening much improved
by his outing. Mr.. Grant says there
are about 500 people camped at the
Soda Springs and that every one Of
them seems to enjoy themselves to
the fullest extent possible. Mr. Grant
said in regard to the Springs: 1.-The
good. The accommodations are the
best possible. There Is a store where
one can obtain supplies of any kind
at reasonable price and to those who
do not want to bother with cooking
and taking blankets with them. there
are good beds to be obtained which
are in tents; the meals are very good.
The grounds are kept clean and there
Is every possibility that It will make
one of the most beautiful summer re-
sorts in this part Of the country with
little money and work put into the
place.
Owing to the fact that several peo-
pie have been Ill, and the death Of one.
there are some people who have OBJ

NORTH COAST HURRYING MATTERS
More Than $2OO,OOO Has Been Paid For
Land For Right Of Way Across
the State.

The North Coast railway is pegging
along at steady gait toward the ac-
cOmplishment of its purposes, gait
that Is not slow in consideration of the
work to be done preliminary to the
building of the road. There are few
men of affairs in Yakima county who
doubt that the promises of Robert f.
Strahorn. that the road would be in
operation inside of two years, will be
fulfilled. 1t is known fact that every
step is taken in conformity with the
general order to rush matters with all
possible haste. Delays. however slight,
are studiously avoided.
The matter of securing the right of
way has been receiving the undivided
attention Of a number Of the North
Coast people, and this important feat
ure has been practically disposed of
the entire distance of the line across
the state. More than 100000, in round
numbers a quarter of million dol
lars, has been paid out in Washington
for rights of way where property own
ers sold them direct. In view Of that
fact, 1t Is hardly reasonable to sup
pose that the North Coast proposition
IL in any sense of the word a bluff.
Where land owners have refused to
sell for right of way purposes the nee
essary legal steps have been taken to
| secure them through condemnation.
Proceedings Of this character have
been begun in the case of all contest
ed lands between this city and Walla
walla. the last Of the suits having been
| commenced few days ago. There is
not mile of the desired route that has
not either been secured by agreement
or against which condemnation pro-
ceedings have not been commenced.
