STRAHORN CAN CONSTRUCT LINZ
Granted Easement and Franchise for
Pole Line From North Yakima
to Lower Valley Towns.

Franchises and easements along
the county roads for an electric pole
line to connect North Yakima with
all the cities and towns of the lower
Yakima valley were granted to Rob-
Iert E. Strahorn and the Yakima VAL
ley Electric company on Thursday
at the meeting of the board of coun-
|ty commissioners. The new company
will operate in connection with the
Northwest Light & Water company
in supplying electric light and pow
er to the other points in Yakima and
Benton counties.
Plans of President Strahorn Of the
company have already been announc-
led, and include the building Of q
pole line for transmission purposes
through Wapato, Toppenish, Gran
ger, Grandview and Prosser to Ken
newick and Pasco, where he already
has power plants, while connections
are to be made for Sunnyside, Grand
view and Zillah.
President Strahorn was in the city
Thursday and the announcement IS
made. though unofficially, that con-
struction work on the transmission
line will be started at once.

alton of water power, which has al
ready made very great progress in
some parts of the country will result
in practically all Of this extremely
valuable natural resource passing
from the people as a whole into the
hands of comparatively a few men,
with resulting higher cost of water
power and water-developed electric
ity to consumers and tremendous
advantage to the few possessors. If
this danger is justified by the pres
ent laws, It is matter of great i'm
portance to make this fact apparent
at once. For this purpose nothing
could be more effective than such a
presentation of all the laws on the
subject as that which the commission
is preparing.

will be an accomplished fact within
eighteen months. according to Pres
ident Robert z. Strahorn, who an

ct. three miles south OF Kennewick
This bridge will be built during the
winter and will be ready for use
when the other parts Of the railroad
are completed.
Work between Granger and North
Yakima will not De started for six

Editor Yakima Herald:


Dear Sir: Will you kindly allow
me space in your columns to appeal
to the ladies and gentlemen of
North Yakima to please ransack
their wardrobes and turn over TO
the Salvation Army whatever cloth
ing they may be able to spare.
With the touch OF cold weather
already experienced and the promise
OF more to follow we are finding a
number of needy cases (not neces-
sarily absolute paupers) where a
chance to obtain some discarded
clothing from the homes Of the more
fortunate would be greatly appre-
ciated.
We have in our Relief Store ex-
cellent facilities for handling, sort
ing and distribution.
We collect every Friday morning,
and any phone call. No. 5151, or
postal card to Box see will receive
attention.
Fully approaching the kindness ri
the people Of this city toward our
work in the past. remain
Yours and theirs to serve.

BANKERS MORSE AND
CURTIS TO PRISON
Former Dominant Figures in Finan-
cial Circles Now Face Peniten-
tiary Doors.

NEW YORK, Nov. Sc. w.
Morse, until year ago dominant
factor in the world of finance, and
Alfred H. Curtis, former president
of the National Bank Of North Am
erica, were found guilty today in the
criminal branch Of the circuit court
on charges OF misappropriation Of
funds and classifying the books Of the
bank. There was also an additional
charge of conspiracy against the pris-
oners but the jury acquitted them OF
this. Judge Hough refused the APP
plication for bail.
The minimum penalty for falsify-
ing of books is five years imprison-
ment and two years Imprisonment for
for misapplication OF funds. There
Is no alternative TO the penalty for
classifying books of bank, the maxi
mum penalty for which is ten years
Imprisonment.
The jury recommended clemency
for Curtis, but made no recommen.
dalton for Morse. Both Mrs. Curtis
and Mrs. Morse, as we'll as their hus-
bands. were present when the yer.
dict was read. Curtis took the YER
dict like a stole, but Morse was un-
able to conceal his disappointment
Mrs Morse concealed her emotions
but a sitting sob of relief escaped
Mrs. Curtis when she heard the rec
Iommendation for mercy for her hus
band.

MUCH MONEY CHANGED HANDS.
Estimated That Between $4,000 and
$4,000 Changed Hands on Race
for Sheriff.

1t is conservatively estimated that
between $4,000 and $4,000 changed
hands as the result of the sheriff S
race in this county Tuesday. In this
city the interest was at fever heat,
and the same conditions existed in
the lower valley towns, plenty OF
money changing hands in Toppenish
and Sunnvside on the final result.
The friends and supporters Of Ian
caster came to his support nobly in
the face of unfavorable reports.
About $500 changed hands on the
supposition that Lancaster would not
carry his own precinct. Up 10 the
time Of counting the votes the DDS
were two TO one on Edwards. and the
result was gentle surprise TO many.
In the national and state election
but little money changed hands, al
though one bet that Missouri would
go republican was put down. A be-
lief that the profits would poll 700
votes in this county cost "dry" sup
porter $50. Light betting was the
order in the size of the majority the
republican state ticket would roll up.
A s25 bet was placed that Joe"
Cannon would not be reelected from
his own district which proved poor
"hunch."

NATIONAL LAWS
ON WATER USE
IMPORTANT VOLUME COMPLIED
Book viii Contain All the Federal
and State Statutes and Decisions
on Subject.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3.-The ma
tional conservation commission is
compiling for publication in a single
volume all the laws and court de-
cisions, both state and federal, which
relate to the use of water in the
United States. This manual Will be
OF immense practical value and it IS
somewhat remarkable. considering
the wide number o. interests which
are touched by these laws, that no
such compilation has been made be-
fore this. With the constantly grow
ling demand for interstate water
ways, the increasing utilization of
water power for the development of
electricity, and the widening areas If
semi-arid western plains that are
being made arabic through irriga-
ton, these laws at the present time
affect the interests of a wide variety
OF individuals and corporations, and
in the immediate future the number
whose business is directly touched
will beyond doubt be greatly in
creased.
The work which the national con-
seIyation commission is doing along
this line is extremely thorough and
the compilation will be complete. 1t
viii include all state and national
which concern water rights and kim
bred questions on both navigable and
non-nayigable streams and lakes.
The citations will include all acts
which relate to riparian rights, and
public usufrust Of water, and all
statutes which concern mills, pollu-
ton of water, interference with navi-
cation or the use of streams for
power. damming OF streams, divert
ing streamflow and so on-in short,
all acts which affect the use of wa
tiers and their private appropriation
to power or other purposes In the
book will be included also some au-
thoritatiye discussion OF the princi-
pies involved in these laws.
The national conservation COM
mission in its endeavor TO make the
compilation absolutely complete and
accurate has called upon the COVER

and the replies in every instance
