putting forth every effort to supply
the anxious customers as equitably
and fairly as possible, insisted in
all taking their place in line and
waiting their turn. All consented to
do this except Paul Kruger. He be-
gan taking the lump coal from the
car, and, as the affair is related by
eye-witnesses, Mr.. Hessey told him if
he wanted bnt small quantity to
get sack. Yes, I'll get a sack, !"
retorted Paul. And then a slight
miX-up occurred in which it is hard
to say which got the best of the
deal. Mr.. Hessey retired to the Of
flee and, armed with a poker, de-
Tended himself, and to keep UP the
joke landed, it is said, on the bellig-
erent Paul. The latter was not hurt

badly, but his dignity suffered to
such an extent that he hied himself
away to the hall of justice and pro-
cured a warrant for Mr. Hessey's ar
rest. The latter was not placed I'M
der arrest, however.
1t is claimed that a considerable
quantity of coal was taken from the
cars Friday night by people who ne
elected to leave their due bills or the
price of the coal. 1t was stated at
the depot late Saturday night that
the officials of the company had adj
vised Agent Meeks that five cars
had been billed for North Yakima
at the mines Saturday, and would
arrive here some time today. Mr.
Meeks had gone to his home, and
the statement was not confirmed.
!. B. Turnell was the first to take
the initiative in securing coal with
out permission. He sent a couple
of drays down to a car standing on
the siding, took out two tons,
weighed it and sent it to be delivered
at his hotel. Then he made out a
check for the coal and rendered it to
the agent OF the company, by whom
it was accepted.

MANDAMUSSU|T INSTITUTED
AGAINST n. P. RY. COMPANY
First OF Kind Ever Brought
In State of Washington
TO COMPEL COMPANY TO BRING COAL
Action Brought By Albert Hall, After His Pa.
tience Was Exhausted in Trying to
Get Fuel He Needed Badly

Albert Hall, bricklayer who re-
sides in College addition, whose
wife is lying dangerously Ill at their
home and who has been patiently
waiting day after day in line for
coal, while his sick wife shivered at
home from the cold, because her
husband-who was amply able and
willing to buy coal could not pur-
chase any, because the dealers can
not get it carried over the railroad,
though hundreds of tons are await
ing shipment to fill the anxious or
ders of the citizens and coal deal
ers of North Yakima-lost patience
Saturday and determined to seek 4
remedy under the law for such treat
ment. Accordingly Mr.. Hall en-
ployed Henry J. Snively and institut
ed suit against the Northern Pacific
Railway company to compel them to
carry coal for the citizens of North
Yakima.
The papers were filed late Satur-
day evening in the superior court,
and in the absence Of Judge Rigg,
Court Commissioner Cleaver issued
the writ of mandamus. The writ
was served upon Agent Meeks Sat
urday night. The proceeding came
like clap of thunder out of a clear
sky to the Northern Pacific Off
Gals here But few people could
be seen last night after the Herald
learned of the proceedings. but all
OF those seen were highly elated and
spoke in hearty commentator of
the courageous course of Mr. Hall.

FOR ALASKA YUkOM-PACIFIC FAIR
Bill to BE Introduced at Coming
Session of Legislature Next
Step in Work.

SEATTLE, Dec. 1.-The next step
in the work of making the Alaska
YukonPacific exposition a success
will be a liberal appropriation from
the state of Washington.
The exposition management, after
a conference with the regents of the
State University, has decided that it
is necessary to have a bill passed at
the forthcoming meeting of the leg
islature appropriating 100000
for the enterprise. OF this amount,
it is purposed to use at once $780,.
900 for the erection of permanent
buildings which the University of
Washington needs badly. These
structures will be used during the
worlds fair to house exhibits. The
remaining 100000 will be devoted
to the uses of the exposition manage
ment and the state commission for
the erection of buildings and the
collection and installation of exni-
bits.
1t Is thought nv the nnivc-s.ty
regents and the fair management
that the sum of 100000 is none
too large to spend for the double
purpose in view. The plan of the
exposition already adopted provides
for the erection of several perma-
nent buildings and the Identification
of the grounds on the lines planned
jointly by the regents and the ex-
position corporation.
Every indication now points to
the unqualified success of the expo
sition. The purposes of the exposi-
ton are being endorsed all over the
country. Advices from Major T. s.
Clarkson, special commissioner, who
is visiting the governors of the diff
ferent states, assure a large repre-
sentation on the part of the differ
ent commonwealth. Prospects are
bright for the government appropri-
alton of s1.250,000. 1t is necessary
however, to secure the authorization
OF the exposition by the state Of
Washington before the government
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1906-12-05

will act. The exploitation work is
year ahead of that of the Lewis
and Clark exposition which insures
a larger attendance at the fair.
In speaking of the appropriation
that will be asked for at the meeting
of the legislature in January, Henry
E. Reed, director of the exploitation,
points out some of the benefits that
will be derived by Washington
through the fair.
"The appropriation of $1,000,0O0
by the Evergreen State will mean
many times that amount in bene-
fits in years to come,' said Mr.. Reed.
"The state has a chance to Obtain.
millions of dollars worth of adver-
Using at ridiculously low cost. OF
the million dollars appropriated
100000 will be spent outright for
permanent Improvements 20 state
property, and much of the benefit
of the expenditure of the remaining
100000 will also be received by
the commonwealth. In addition the
exposition corporation will make
many improvements on the grounds
that will revert to the state The
state will practically expend it's en-
tire appropriation for direct perma-
nent good, and in addition will re-
ceive, indirectly, inestimable benefits
from the exploitation the fair will
give to this section
"The Lewis and Clark exposition
showed what worlds fair will do
for this region. 1t has been con-
coded by all that the 1905 world s
fair did more for the Pacific North
west than any other agency could
possibly do. Every section OF this
part of the country has attained at
one bound what it would have taken
years to accomplish by regular
growth.
THE most important results the
state of Washington has to look for
ward to from the Alaska-Yukon-Pa Pa
cific exposition are the acquisition
of additional population, the attrac-
tion of capital for investment and
the popularizing of the common
wealth. The fair will present in
the most effective manner the vast
resources, the unequaled advantages
and the great possibilities of the
state.
1T is little early to estimate at
tendance at the fair, but it can be
stated without any fear of success
tful contradiction, that the total num-
Der of paid admissions will greatly
exceed the Lewis and Clark fair.
More than 10000 persons from
east of the Rocky mountains visited
Portland last year. With the extra
exploitation that will be given to
the AlaskaY Yukon Pacific exposition
and this part of the country, I have
every reason to believe that at least
a quarter of a million visitors will
come out in 1909"
