V1NOL SETTLES
The Cod Liver Oil Ouestio,

No one will dispute the curative
and strength creating value of cod
liver oil. or centuries it has been
recognized as the grandest of all
healing and body building agents for
wasted human strength and vitality.
Yet, owing to the heavy, greasy
oil which envelopes the medicinal
elements, and which have no value
either as food or medicine, many
patients weakened by disease cannot
digest it either in its raw form or an
emulsion, and others will not Toxic
it on account of it's disagreeable odor
and taste-consequently its value is
lost.
Now, the process discovered by
two eminent French chemists
Morgues and Gautier-should inter
est every person in North Yakima,
for all of the tonic, bodybuilding
and curative elements of cod liver
oil are now separated from the
greasy, useless oil, and given to the
people in delicious Vinol. For this
reason 1t is fast superceding old
fashioned cod liver oil and emul-
sions.
AS body-builder and strength
crea,or for old people, weak women,
delicate children, and after sickness
and all pulmonry diseases, 1t is rec
commended by over 5000 of the lead
ing druggists of the United States
as the best.
Your money back if it does not do
all we claim. Fred l.. Janeck, Drug
gist.
Note-While we are sole agents
for Vinol in North Yakima, is is now
for sale al the leading drug store in
nearly every town and city in the
country Look for the Vinol agency
in your town.

ARMBRUSTER DISAPPOINTED.
DO Not Vote for speedy
Action on Ordinance.

Although Councilman Armbrus-
ter's municipal water system did
not pass it's third reading at Mon
day nights council meeting, the
councilman from the Fourth ward is
confident that it will pass the cOun-
Gil in time to permit the question to
be voted on December 4. Mr..
Armbruster expected that the ordi-
nance would pass its third reading
Monday night, for he had been led
to believe that either three or four
councilmen would support the meas
ure, SO that early action might be
secured. The councilmen disap-
pointed Mr.. Armbruster, all of them
with his exception voting to post
pone third reading.
1t is understood that Mayor Reed
does not look with favor upon one
of the ordinances passed last night
and another veto may be expected
from the city's chief executive.

GRADE CHANGES
At NORTH YAKIMA
TESTIMONY IN RAILWAY SUIT
Engineer Pitman says Would Injure
Road to Enter West of Sclah
Street.

f. l.. Pitman, assistant chief en-
gineer of the North Coast Railway
company, was the only witness ex-
amined yesterday in the condemna-
ton suit brought by this company
against the Northern Pacific. Only
morning session of the Superior
court was held. At noon an ad-
journment was taken until today
During the afternoon all the officials
in attendance at court and the at
torneys, accompanied by Judge Rigg,
viewed the land that is sought to be
condemned. There are three strips
One is in the southern part of the
city, one at Parker Siding and the
other at Union Gap.
Mr.. Pitman testified yesterday
that the reason the North Coast
would require SO much ground here
is that it is at North Yakima the
grade will change. From the river
to the city the grade is less than
from North Yakima to the noun
tains. He said that this would neces-
state change taking place in the
makeup of the trains, which would
require many feet of side track.
He also testified that it would be
an injury to the North Coast to en-
ter the city by route west of Sela"
street, because it would necessitate
curvatures. These statements were
made by him in response to ques-
lions directed by Attorney Grosscup
on cross examination.
Those who went out to view the
land that the North Coast is seek
ing to condemn were, in addition to
Judge Riggs, as follows:
Northern Pacific officials-Vic
President Levy, General Manage
Palmer, superintendent Beamcr,
First Assistant Engineer Croswell,
Chief Engineer Stewart of the Great
Northern, Attorneys B. S. Gross
cup and Englehart.
North Coast representatives.
Heustis, former chief engineer of the
Northern Pacific, but now acting as
expert engineer for the North Coast,
Assistant Chief Engineer Pitman,
Attorneys H. J. Snively and Danson.

TWIN FALLS Is GROWING.
Ben Otter Much Impressed With
New Section.

Ben Otter, who was for a time in
Ierested in the Yakima Transfer
company and who, after selling his
share, went 10 Twin Falls TO prove
up on his homestead, has returned
TO the city with the intention of re-
naming over the winter.
Speaking OF that section, Mr.. Dit
ter says: Twin Falls is growing to
be nice city. Already it has a
population estimated all the way
from $500 to 1000. | think 1000 is
about correct. In the last five
weeks three two story brick build
ings have been erected, one of them
10 be the First National bank.
There is a small pumping station and
sewer in the town. The agent of the
O. S. L. has just completed $4,000
residence at Bull.
Work is now under way on a
power plant. which by harnesslng
the Shoshone falls will produce a
wonderful amount OF power Three
times plans for this project have
been made and work started, but
each time an old man living in Mon
tana and having some sort of an in
terest in the lands adjoining the
falls has been able to hold up the
operations. With this plant install
ed the city will go ahead with rush.
"A small plant generating about 80
900 horse power has been erected al
Thousand Spring by miners, but
none of this is available for the use
OF the city
Most of the holdings near the
river are small, but there are a few
large ranches. Near Bull a man
named Ferguson has 5000 acres in
one piece which he intends to put
into alfalfa.
Most of the good land is taken
up now, that is from the standpoint
OF the people over there who want a
farm that can be watered from one
ditch across the upper side. But
there are many tracts that are still

BOY BANDITS FATHER TALKS.
Says Wants No Leniency Shown II
Guilty.

The father of Robert Barker, the
captured kennewick burglar and
gun fighter lives on Camas Prairie,
a mile and a half from Denver, Ida
no. His name is W. F. Barker. He
came TO that section of Idaho from
Florence, Colorado, about year
ago and rented farm from J. E.
Horton of Spokane, Wash.
The father is man of family,
having several children from his
first and second wives. The present
Mrs. Barker, who is a stepmother to
the boy bandit, was Mrs. McDaniels
before she married Barker in Col
orado.
Young Barker, as far as can be
learned, has never visited this Sec
ton of the state, having been a wan
derer prior TO and since his father
came to Idaho.
Young Barker's stepsister, Miss
Lille McDaniels, is considered one
of the handsomest and most popular
young ladies on Camas Prairie.
When the Woodmen gave their fair
at Grangeville about a month ago
Miss Lille was voted the most pop.
ular young lady in the vicinity of
Denver, and besides being sent to
Grangeville as one of the maids of
honor TO the queen, was given SIS
gold watch.
w. F. Barker is 40 years old and
is assisted in working the farm by
his brother, John Barker, aged 35
years
IF my son is guilty of the crimes
charged against him, he should be
punished. Just because he is my
son ! don't want TO see any extra
leniency shown him
He said the boys right name is
Aulmer, but he was nicknamed Rob-
ert for short. The last time Barker
saw his son was in Utah, when the
family was en- route to Idaho. From
there Robert went to Montana, and
at the time of the shooting was
working his way to his fathers farm
TO visit the family.
The last time Barker heard from
the boy was about a month ago, say
ing he was coming home. Roberts
mother lives in Colorado, the parents
having been divorced. The father
says Robert win be 10 in January.
