ENLARGE \ CANAL.
Secures Water Appropriation for Use
Through Fowler Ditch to
Union Gap.

Filing of water appropriation for
$500 cubic feet per second from the
Yakima river at the head of the
Fowler ditch indicates that steps
will soon be taken by the Yakima
Valley Transportation company to
enlarge that canal and use it for a
power source, with plant at Union
Gap. The papers have been taken
in the name of Alex. Miller, one of
of the directors of the company, and
are attested by President Splawn and
Director A. f. Larson.
President Splawn said Friday that
the company will enlarge the canal
from its present capacity of 1000
cubic feet and will be able to develop
$4,000 horse power at the gap. This
will be utilized for motive power for
the electric railroad system.
Construction of the plant must be
stated within six months from the
filing of the appropriation. Arrange
ments have already been made with
owners of the Fowler ditch for its
use as canal for the power plant.

TRAINS ANNULLEO
NORTHERN PACIFIC Is
BLOCKED IN MONTANA
Railroad Officials Report That There
Is No Clearance in
Sight.

All through passenger trains on
the Northern Pacific railroad were
annulled yesterday, as far as travel
from the east was concerned, and
according to railroad officials there
is no clearance in sight, because of
washout and other troubles in Mon
tana. Nothing definite is known as
to the situation.
Yesterday morning No. 8 went
through as Spokane-Seattle train,
special having been made up at
Spokane. The next train was No. 10,
which went through early this morn
ing
Agent Ryerson said last evening
that he had been informed that no
trains would get to North Yakima
from the east during the night, ex-
cepting the local, and that he did not
know whether No. would arrive on
time in the morning. This is the
second serious tie-up for the railroad
in the last 10 days as result of
washouts in Montana

GAS COMPANY WILL
SPEND BIG sun SOON.

Sixty thousand dollars will be
spent in improvements on the gas
plant and extension work this year."
said Manager Brown to Herald re-
porter on Friday. ''Of this amount
100000 will be used in the purchase
and installation of new machinery at
the plant and the balance to the lay
ing of new mains and the extension
of the gas business"
The Yakima Gas company has met
with phenomenal success since it
started in business, less than three
years ago. and according to its man
ager, the business will justify the ex-
penditure of the above amount. The
growth of the city has been so rapid
that the company, in order to meet
the demands of the people, must ex-
tend their mains. AS yet no mains
have been laid north of the avenue
on the West Side, and this portion of
the city will be the first to receive
the attention of the company when
the work opens up. With the COM
ing of hot weather the company an
ticipates a large demand for gas for
cooking purposes and is going to use
every effort to accommodate every
portion of the city.

THE sTAR-sPANGLED BANNER.
Musicians Will Try TO Prevent
Cheapening of the Air.

National musicians III convention
assembled have resolved that they
will use their energies TO prevent a
cheapening OF the air that accom-
panies the beautiful song that con-
Germs the Star-Spangled Banner. They
find, as most people have. tEat lie
music is frequently jumbled with 9TH
er and less dignified tunes and that
there is a tendency to render "The
Star-Spangled Banner" common.
From one point of view. the musi-
clans are quite right. Any use of
the grandly beautiful air that tends
to degrade it should be discouraged
and stopped. The patriotic instinct
demands it. On the other hand, it
is certain that medly OF national
airs that does not contain at least
part of The Star-Spangled Banner"
is not complete Hundr IDS of young
children have received their first i'm
preston of the stately measures of
this tune by finding it side by side
With something less dignifed The
musicians realize the value Of color
contrast in music and they must CON
Cede that certain uses of NJ national
air in connection with other music
ne on this ground quite justified
We feel that the intent OF the mu-
sicians is a good one aad that some
result may come OF it, bit We feel
at the same time that care should be

CATION projects, another thousand on

ma, the great Tieton project en-
ploying 900 to 600 men, the Pleas

struction in North Yakima and -
miles radius of the city. Few of
these have less than four men en-
gagged in construction, while some
have as many as 2 men ION the

the builders on homes is 1000 men.
In addition, here are changes in
the business district and the build
ing of the high school. employing
