for ex-COnvict.

No clue has been discovered by the
police that will lead to the arrest OF
the holdup men who robbed the till
of the West Side saloon Wednesday
night. The ease and dispatch with
which the crime was committed
marks the men as artists. yet a good
deal OF local color is added to the
crime by the fact that the men were
apparently we'll acquainted with the
saloon building Other reasons not
divulged lend color TO the theory that
the crime was committed by people
who have been in this city for some
time.
The police are looking for an ex-
convict who has been in the city for
the past ten days. and since the hold
up has disappeared The police be-

Washington's delegation in con-

made by the sheep men.
A committee was appointed To
draft resolutions and petitions for
both the house and the senate of the

C0WL|Tz ROAD
WILL GET AID
MEANS MUCH TO NORTH YAKIMA
Yakima County Legislators Premise
Their SuppoIt-NIeans Opening
of Mining District.

Active work for large appropria-
ton to complete the state aid road
through Cowlitz pass, connecting
with the Bumpng lake country, has
been promised by Senator-elect Cam
eron and Representative-elect Meigs
in the next session of the legislature.
The State Good Roads association
and the highway commission are
working for the bull ling of this road,
and with all the support thus given
it, the Cowlitz pass division of the
highway network of the state has
good prospects.
The building OF the Cowlitz pass
road means much to North Yakima,
for will open one of the greatest
mining districts of the state, and will
divert the entire output to this city.
There are several local companies
that have holdings in the Gold Hill
and Cowlitz pass neighborhood and
rich strikes have been made. 1t is
impossible at present to get this ore
out, there is not safe way for travel
even by pack trains. With a good
road to the district stamp mill can
be built, put into operation and the
pack trains used as far as Naches
City, where there are railroad facili-
ties.
The subject of the -Cowlitz pass
road will probably be discussed al

week, to which a number of Yakima
people are going.

A general observance of the day
will be held and short program will
be rendered by the prisoners. The
Salvation Army is planning to hold

nate good things to eat. Officers of
the kangaroo" court will make
short speeches, and the troubles and
trials of Jail life will probably be
forgotten for while by those par
ticipating in the festivities.

tendance from lower valley points
will be larger this year than hereto
fore.
The placing of the fruit growers
convention at the same time as the
national apple show has created much
local interest in both gatherings, and
many men who are not interested in
fruit growing from the orchardist
standpoint will probably go from
North Yakima to Spokane and be at
both of the gatherings.
Whether a special train will be Sc
cured or not, or only special cars Sc
cured for the trip. will depend con-
siderably on the further interest that
is shown.

PROPOSED NEW
ORDINANCE
CUTTING OUT EIGHT SALOONS
And Fathercd by Mayor Lombard
ProvokeS Lively Discussion i'm
Council Session.
CUTTING OUT EIGHT SALOONS

Mayor Lombard's ordinance which
has as its chief provision the limiting
of the number of saloons in this city
to one for every 1000 population and
which places the present population
at $4,000 as base of action. failed
to meet with the approval of the
members of the council Monday even
ing and was laid over until the next
meeting. The disapproval CT the
members arose from the fact that the
wording of the ordinance might be
so construed as to make it necessary
for the council to turn down the first
eight saloon men who applied for a
license.
1t was pointed out that if the num-
her was 10 be diminished from TWEEN
ty-three to fifteen, eight of the least
desirable places ought to go rather
than the first eight who applied.
Councilman Schott took the posi-
ton that inasmuch as the state law
made ii optional with the council to
grant or to refuse to grant licenses,
this ordinance was entirely unneces-
sary. Councilman Miller said that he
was willing TO vote for any measure
that would diminish the number oil
saloons, but that he was not sure
about the const uction of the pro-
posed measure and preferred to wait
until it could be determined.
1t was stated by those out of SYM
pathy with the present city admins
tration that the measure was a
shrewd political move to take away
from the incoming administration
$4,000 revenue and at the same time
make it impossible for the new coun-
ell to repeal the ordinance without
going on record for an increase in the
number OF saloons.
