Commissioners in Special Session.

The County Commissioners met in
special session Monday at Prosser to
open bids for the construction of a
bridge across the Y akinna at the coun-
ty seat where the old county bridge
was wasn't out at the time of the recent
high water. All the bids submitted
were rejected by the board because
they We're regarded as being unreason-
ably high. There is a movement OH
foot TO acquire he new Sixth street
bridge there for small consideration
and use it as he county bridge. Az Il
means of saving mouty to the county
this seems to he a proper move.
The most important action taken by
the Commissioners however, was in
raising Benton County t" the eigh-
teenth class. When the county was
organized it was piacedin the twenty
second class by the act creating the
county but the rapid growth and
increase in the population in the past
year aud half has made the change
necessary and advisable. The county
was a year and half o'd yesterday.
A county of the 18th class must contain
1000 people and not to exceed 5000

WHY OHIO Is PROUD.

Not much is heard of Ohio as a
corn state, but only seven out of the
other A beat it in the size of the crop.
The average population of the coun-
ties of Ohio is about $4,000, but of the
SO only 20 or 21 exceed that limit.
There are more men fit for mill
tary duty in Ohio than fought at Muk-
den, in the japanese and Russian
armies combined.
If the people of Ohio stood side by
side, with outstretched arms, touching
finger tips, the line would reach from
Boston to San Francisco, with large
margin left.
The first settlements in Ohio were
made in the southeastern part of the
state, but now that section is less pop
ulous than almost any other. 1t con-
tains no great city.
No precious metals have ever been
mined in Ohio, but the value of the
coal and iron dug out of the Ohio hills
every year exceeds that of the gold
of Colorado or California.
Only one -Illinois-which is
younger than Ohio is more populous.
Illinois is much larger in area. No
state later in date of settlement has
more inhabitants in proportion to its
size

THE ADMIRAL PREFERS HARD
WORK TO LIFE OF EASE.
Rank Makes Him Independent Of
President or Secretary of Navy
is Known as a Well
Groomed Man.

New York.-"What has become of
Admiral George Dewey and what is
he doing now?"
This inquiry, sent to a st. Louis
newspaper, elected the following in
formation:
Taken all in all there is perhaps no
man in the United States in the serv-
ice of the government or out of it who
is in more enviable position than
is Admiral Dewey. Congress has
given him the rank, pay and allow
ances of an admiral of the navy, re-
viving the rank for his benefit. He is
absolutely Independent of the secre-
tary of the navy and of the president
of the United States.
He cannot be retired and he cannot
be disciplined by reduction in rank
or any of the other usual means en-
ployed. The place gives him an an
nual income of $15,500.
If he chose to do SO he could close
down his desk, go home and never
turn his hand over in the way of
work, either for the navy or anyone
else, and his pay and allowances would
go on as long as he lives; but the
admiral prefers to work and to work
hard.
He is at the head of the navy gen.
eral board, charged with the duty of
devising general plans for improve
ment of the navy, the management of
the ships, the handling of officers and
men, and the control of the great gov
ernment shipyards. Every day when
he is not at sea for the maneuvers
he Is at his desk in his office or at
tending to the meetings of the board.
Admiral Dewey is much loved and
much respected. He is a dapper lit
tie fellow, not much more than five
feet in height. His clothes fit him
like the naval uniform, without crease
or bag anywhere.
They do say that the admiral's Chi
nese valet has no less than 20 new
suits of clothes and ten pairs of shoes
to take care of at time. The ad-
miral is not a dude, merely a we'll
groomed man without seeming to have
any thought of his personal appear
ance.
He has but one fad, if fad it may
be called, and that is his love for
animals. He has one of the finest

He now has few friends. Once the

Former friends who fawned on him
and reaped the fruits of his sensation
al methods of getting rid of his wife's
money now look upon him as fool
who has permitted himself to be found

was any thought ever taken that he
might find enemies enough in the
chamber to throw him out Of his seat.

tie of Manila Bay with Dewey, SO they
are real bunkies.
When the admiral was making a
tour of inspection of the fleet the dog
went along and was allowed the run
of a vessel while his master was
aboard. On one ship the admiral re-
turned from the mems quarters just
in time to encounter the dog sailing
in most h, ed fashion from the Of.
ficers' quarters with the toe Of an
officers boot in hot pursuit.
Admiral Dewey was white with an.
