Concerning the celebration of the
signing of the Teton project and the
transferring of the Sunnyside canal to
the government, would say let us not
be in too big a hurry. Great things are
not accomplished in day. The war
OF the revolution lasted seven years and
no doubt it took long time to build
the pyramids of Egypt, and it is esti-
mated that it will take Unca Sam
ten years to spade out the big ditch
across the Isthmus. No danger If our
enthusiasm dying out; it is spreading
here like a prairie fire. The promoter
of the Louisiana purchase exposition set
the time for the big show to come OF
in 1908, and after working hard for two
years, they asked for another year to
complete the arrangements and so the
fair never came off till 1904, and it
was the biggest thing of the kind that
ever happened. Of course, we would
all like to have Jones here. Jones is
unquestionably the hero of the day, and
| know what he would say. He would
say as Schley said to Sampson after
the battle of Santiago, There's glory
enough to go around" and we say this
is glory enough for ALL and so let us
take time and plan and make this the
biggest thing that ever happened in the
Yakima valley.
