OFFICERS ANXIOUS TO HAVE
SETTLEMENT.

The Yakima Republic is fretting
at the delay in settling the financial
questions a: issue between Yakima
and Benton counties. The adjust
ment had reached the point some
time ago, that it was to be argued
before the attorney general by the
county attorneys of the respective
counties, and his decision was to be
followed. As we understand it,
the county attorney of Yakima
county has never been ready to pre-
sent the case and consequently no
hearing before the attorney gener-
al has been had.
c. O. Anderson, county attorney
for Benton county. has been ready
for some time to submit his case.
The commissioners of both count
les are getting anxious to have their
question settled.

James Knox, a representative of Bal

out in East Horse Heaven Saturday
and along with Ben H. Day made a
tour of inspection to get line on the

ed with the prospect. Knox thought
the grain on its present showing
would yield 20 to g bushels through
cut the region he visited. He also
talks high prices. He says that wheat
will bring IS cents. His principal
reason for saying this is that other
wheat producing countries promise
only partial crop and on the other
hand the demand fer wheat was never
greater than it will be this year both

DEATH OF MRS. LESTER WEBSTER

On Saturday friends in Kenne-
wick received the sad news of the
death of Mrs. Lester Webster at
the home of her parents in Mis-
souri,.
About year ago her husband
was sick for several months with
typhoid fever and his life hung in
the balance, During this long,
trying time she gave every particle
of her strength and vitality to his
care and just when her untiring de-
votion was rewarded by his recovery
she was taken with the same dis
ease and never recovered from it's
ravages upon her. During the
winter she was up and around the
home but her strength was never
regained. Her respiratory organs
became diseased and she grew
worse. In company with Mrs.
Fred Webster trial of mountain
climate was made, but the change
did not prove did not prove perma-
nenlly helpful. Mr.. Webster, who
had teen working at the headgate
near Kiona joined her at Spokane
a few weeks since and they return
ed to the old home whsre she died
on Friday, June %, 1896
The many friends, mindful of
her patient endurance of trial, ard
hardship will be especially sadden-
ed by the news of her death. All
will appreciate the oeep and incou-
solable grief of the husband and
helpmeet and will extend the hand
of sy mpathy and lift the voice of
PRAYER in his behalf.

mixed with plenty of play. I believe

nothing particular to do but the and
play. My vacation last year comes
pretty near my ideal.
We did up the morning work and
then played awhile, us we felt like it;
then, after dinner, we would sit down
and sew, for mamma thinks all girls
ought to know how to sew and darn
stockings. While we sat down we
would take turns at reading aloud from
some good book or paper, snch as the
supplement to The Sunday Times. |
like it better now;is has such nice stor-

Then, after an hour or two. we could

Columbia, accompanied by good
sized lunch basket, which we always
enjoyed.
