are now being drawn by Guy F. Egg
bers. master mechanic of the COM
pany, who has just arrived in the
city from Spokane. While none of
the details can be learned until the
plans have been approved by the Of
ficials at ST. Paul. 1t is understood
that it will be thoroughly modern in
every detail and will have five stalls
when completed.
A site has been chosen letween the
stockyards and the ice house. The
structure will be of brick. While
traffic heretofore has required two
engines in the switchyards, business
has grown to such proportions that it
has become necessary to have more
adequate quarters for the locomo-
tives stationed here. Under the en-
ergetic management of J. NJ. Scullin,
the new yardmaster. the congestion
in delayed freight has been relieved
and everything is now in first class

conjunction with Travelling Passeng-
er Agent Safer Mr.. Shannon made
this city his headquarters for the
rrpose of better facilitating the
handling of the large crowds of Wis
itors here during the fair. Extra
coaches were added to many of the
passenger trains and everything pos
sible was done for the comfort of the
travelling public The local switching

arrival of John Kanally and w. j.

Fire Station on Mob Hill.

A new fire station for the west side
is the latest proposition which will be
put before the city council at its next
meeting
Mob Hill residents are promoting
the scheme. The plan is to place
the fire station at the very outskirts
of the city limits, probably at Reed
avenue or Eleventh avenue west,
probably near the junction of Yakima
avenue.
The plan is to furnish complete
new fire apparatus for the station
and it is claimed that with the fire
house located in such a position the
entire west side would be in easy
access by the department and there
would be no difficulty in making an
easy run to fire.
Mob Hill people are clamoring the
most for fire protection and while at
the present time they are not in
the city limits they believe they will
be after the next election when the
proposition of annexation will come
up and believe that they are Of
enough Importance to the city's in
terests to receive protection.
As far as can now be learned the
proposition of a new fire station will
be put before the council verbally to
secure that body's idea OF the matter.
Several of the councilmen have ex-
themselves favorably to such
a move and the west side Are station
on the hill does not seem more than
feasible. 1t is understood that the
west siders do not wish to have the
QUITO hose cart changed to the sta
ton of the hill. but to leave that
where it is and to equip in its entire
ty new station with hose cart and
all the necessary paraphernalia.

Young Mans Day.

Young Mans Day.
at has been said that young man
in this day and age has no chance.
1t is not true. This is the young
mans age and country. All over the
land industry and ability are in de-
mand Our chambers of commerce
and boards of trade are Influenced
by young men. Our great banking
institutions and the chairs of our
railroad presidents are occupied by
young men. Why, even young man
of wealth can succeed today.
They say a young man must have
money or a pull It is not So There
is ne position within the gifts Of the

Increase All on West Side.


Petitions for the annexation of
several additions to the city have
been prepared and it is a noticeable
fact that all of the additions are on
the west side to the south line of
the city limits, all districts south of
the city being excluded, thus cutting
off all chance of annexing Yakima
City. or "Old Town" as the talk has
been during the past few weeks.
The petitions ask for 4 portion of
Mob Hill as we'll as some dozen or so
additions in that vicinity. The fol-
lowing additions are included:
Highland Park.
liberia
Modern
New Modern
Cottage Hill.
Summit View
Yakima Heights.
Mob Hill
Melroy Plat
Highland.
Capitol Heights.
Edison.
In all the tracts mentioned in
cludes 500 acres of land which are
thickly populated and which will
mean the addition of a good many
hundreds of people to the city limits.
Already the petition has but II
signers but it is noticeable that the
signers of the petition pledge them
selves to vote for the annexation,
which is considered by many to be
very astute political move on the
part of the Trainer.
Following are the signers:
]. T. Waller, j. E. Parrish, John
H. Miller. E. D. Gatchell, A. D.
Smith, L P. Spotley, P. Wynne, John
Wynne. ]. V. Whitehair, F. White
hair and Robert N. Sanders.
The agitation relate to including
Yakima City in the annexation and
consequently changing the name of
North Yakima to Yakima, had met
with some favor and there were many
who believed such would be a good
move. When the fact became known
that there would be absolutely no
addition on the south but that the
city limits were increased on the west
alone Councilman Armbruster's hand
was seen by some and it is claimed
that there is something of a political
move behind the addition of the
tracts on the west side.
The annexation district is a very
complex one and is marked by a
zigzag line of the western side of the
city and is very difficult to describe
1t is marked, however, with the idea
of bringing into the city the greatest
possible nmber of people in the small
est possible space.
The petition will come before the
city council at its next meeting with
proposition to hold a SPECIAL vote
on the annexation at the next general
election.
