Work OH Yakima Trolley Line.
'ssssssssssssssssssssssse

Actual work has been started on
the proposed railway system of the
Inter- Valley Traction company. The
work commenced this week. Railroad
ties that were ordered some time ago
by Secretary Murray B. Miles began
to arrive Tuesday and a long train
of teams started hauling ties to scat
ter them along the line of the road.
1t Is the intention of the company
to build its first line from the state
fair grounds to this city so that at least
this must of the road will be in oper-
alton next September. Such being its
intention the company proposes to
commence at once to grade the line of
its route which will follow the main
road from the north gate of the fair
grounds to the southern extremity of
Sixth street and thence north to Yak
ina avenue.
The recent movement of the local
railway company has had a tendency
to put damper on the owners OF
private vehicles. During fair week
these rustlers have more business than
n mixologist at a soda fountain on
the Fourth of July When the Inter-
Valley gets to operating its road, how
ever. there will be quite a difference
in the private rig business. 1t won't
be so disagreeable and dusty either
for visitors, and the trip will be made
in much quicker time. In fact the
announcement that the lnter-Valley
would be selling round 'r'p tickets TO
the fair grounds next fall for 10 cents
or not over 20 cents at the most
while 1t does not appeal especially 70
those who formerly received 20 cents
from every passenger or so cents per
round trip to the grounds, Is never
theless one of the biggest boons that
has thus far been spring In connec-
ton with the state fair.-Yakima Re

Water Tank Fell Down.

The large water tank at the ceme-
terry erected by the energetic efforts
of few ladies of this city, has fallen
down, not through neglect of the
ladieh, but on account of the lack of
interest and appreciation of the gen.
eral public. The ladies used up what
funds that had been contributed and
were unable to proceed further on
the work until more contributions
were made. They did not feel dis
posed to go out begging when many
others were equally interested and
responsible as they and the Times
Herald doesn't blame them. This
neglect is a reflection upon us ALL

TOWN GOES TO SHELTER.
All Of Its Houses Built Of Bricks OF
Gold and Silver Ore.

One reads of romantic castles OF
silver and palaces of gold, but they
are the dreams of fiction-now they
have discovered something as strange
on the map of Mexico. The buildings
OF a whole town have been bought
at so much a ton, based on assays
from the adobe walls, which give
gold and silver values. The town IS

value Of about $4,000 Mexican cur

The value Of this little town was
revealed when the Mexican Central
decided to build into the city of Qua

there.
1t was found necessary to tear down
about three hundred buildings when
had been built of the shines produced
by the grinding of ores from the num-
erous mines of the district Straw

WOULD TAX OLD MAIDS,
On the Ground that From Sheer Oh
stinacy They Clog the Wheels Of
Progress.

If there is a reckless soul who is
not only inviting destruction, but is
fairly clamoring for it, that soul in,
habits the body of the editor of the
North American Review.
Not long ago he called the Ameri
can girl a bore. He still lives, but
has not learned caution. His latest
is a proposal to tax spinsters. He
declares that they get most of the
benefits of civilization without max
ing any adequate return.
He admits that their real property
is forced to yield a slight controu-
ton. But he thinks that their per-
sonal property goes scot free, and
he is sure that they do not enrich
the customs revenue. So they be.
come through sheer obstinacy" clogs
upon the wheels Of progress.
That is all tina. will save the colonel
from the wrath of the spinster Of
North America. 1t is SO novel a po-
sition for them to be put in, this OF
doggedly declining the joys of matri-
mony. But the colonel insists.
There was never yet woman"
he says, "who could not marry, as
she should, if she would. 1t is only
necessary to be a woman to win a
man-some man.
"Spinsterhood is purely voluntary
condition, due to reprehensible con-
trainess, as is clearly proven by the
non-existence of a single authentic
claim to exemption because OF lack
of opportunity"
True there is sort of chuckle be-
hind his last remark, but it may pass.
1.-The real point at issue is whether
the old maid of the present day rend-
ers a fair equivalent, or even tries
to do SO, in one way or another, for
what she receives; and to that our
answer is decisively negative. 1t IS
a sad state of affairs, to which we
have given much unavailing thought.
AS last resort in search OF method
of reformation, the ubiquitary remedy
of taxation occurs to our mind as
the only one holding forth hope of ef
fectiveness."

Four-fifths Of the operatives in Jap
anese mills are women, probably due
to the fact that they will work for
less than the men, who can do better
outside. Men are only employed when
absolutely necessary. such as for
bosses, loom fixers, the heavier card
room work, etc. Weaving in Japan is
almost entirely a woman's job, as spin
ming is with us. The fact that the
looms are run almost entirely by wo-
men was of considerable advantage
to the mills during the war. as they
were not affected by the calling out
of the reserves.-Consular Report by
