The company is said to have found
that parts of the ordinance are de-

FINANCING 4 RAILROAD.

No announcement made in recent
months to North Yakima has been of
more vital Importance than the state
ment that George S. Rankin, as rep
resentative of the directors of the
Yakima Valley Transportation COM
pany. has succeeded in financing the
project for electric railroad system
radiating from this city.
The building of the contemplated
electric line is not only of vital i'm
portance to the people of North Yaki-
ma, but it is of Importance to resi-
dents of the districts traversed and
the towns through which it will
pass. 1t will result in the rapid pop
u,ation of outlying districts which
only need transportation to increase
property values. New towns will
spring up along the lines and new
centers of trade established.
But the chief benefit will be to the
rancher, for provision will be made
SO that he can safely and quickly
bring his produce to market, without
fear of bad roads or bad weather
and without loss of time and labor.
The board of directors of the
Transportation company. and espe-
cially General Manager Rankin. and
President Splawn, are entitled to the
thanks of the entire Yakima valley
for their work in financing the road,
accomplished at time when few new
enterprises have been able to find
money available for their use.

INFLUENCED By SPIRITS.
John Conrad Claims That His
Divorced Wife Had Undue
Influence Over Him.

Allegations that his former wife
secured undue influence over him ty
representing she was in communica-
ton with spirits are made in a suit
started Monday by John Conrad
against Leota A. Conrad, who recent
ly secured a divorce from him, in
which he seeks to recover possession
Of property in Leaning addition. His
representatives, Attorneys Snively
and Hatfield, have filed papers in
which he claims this property is
worth $4,000.
Conrad recites that he was married
in 1879, that his wife secured a d.
vorce on April 8, 1908, and that be-
tween those dates he was sunstruck.
He said this impaired his mind SO
that his wife transacted all commun-
ity business, including the dealings
regarding the Leaning addition
property. His allegations regarding
her acts are included in the following
clause: Defendant planned and
schemed to secure divorce and to
secure all property in her own
name" by "means of continued per-
sistent and importantly, and under
corrupt and overpowering influence,
the said defendant secured control of
this plaintiffs mind, and by repre-
senting that she was in communica-
ton with spirits she put this plaintiff
in terror, and further misrepresent-
ing her purpose and object" she in
duced plaintiff to sign warranty
deed to the property and to attach
his name to paper agreeing to a
divorce suit.
The claim is made that the prop
erty is worth $4,000, while the con-
sideration was only $500, and the
plaintiff asks for the return of the
property or the difference in consid-
Grafton to him.

NOW HAVE $1,000.
Meeting Held Friday Evening Show.
Results-HOpe Now for Better
Things.

At the Y. NJ. C. A. building Fri
day night the ladies' committee of
100 met to compare notes on the
completion of the ten-day campaign.
Owing to the proximity of the Fourth
the attendance was smaller than it
otherwise would have been, and
many of the ladies were prevented on
account of preparations for stands for
the sale of ice cream, cake, ETC., in
aid of the furnishing fund.
Those present reported total of
about $4,000 subscribed during the
time allotted. That is was not $10,-
900 was regretted, but that will come
later as the women only adjourned"
to take it up again after the hot
weather is through Many functions
prevented some from taking any
part at all during the last 10 days,
several were obliged to leave town,
and none of them had ever done this
particular work before with no ex-
ception. They have certainly done
nobly in the start they have made.
There are many sources to hear
from yet. The stores that are going
to give percentages will report later,
and most of the ladies had still more
people to see on their list. All of this
further demonstrated how very busy
a place North Yakima is.

the superior court. Attorney f. A.
Hatfield represents Mrs. Merriman.
The petition shows that the couple
were married in Lind, Wash, on
August 23, 1905, and that while liv-
ing there, one child was born, given
the name of Mira Erlin. Some time
later they moved to North Yakima,
and Mrs. Merriman alleges that her
husband compelled her to "move
eight times in eight weeks, from one
lodging house to another, for the rea-
son he failed and refused to pay
rent" She claims that accommoda-
tions then were of the poorest class,
and that he failed to support her,
while she alleges that he was intoxi-
Gated many times.
For the purpose of securing money
to live, she claims, he pawned her
jewelry and heir looms, and that he
has not redeemed them. On Sep
TENDER 26, 1906. she claims that she
left him and went to Fort Simcoe to
live with her parents. Jealousy and
incompatibility of temperament are
alleged in the petition.

vorce, the custody of her child and

WEDNESDAY. JULY s. 1908.

[ have known the love of woman
In the years that stretch back
there.
Felt the thrill OF pure loves passion,
Faced fiercer passions glare.
Mine has been that truer trying
Sometimes man 10 man may give;
Lasting till my friend lay dying,
Giving life that | might live.
I have seen the wild beasts creeping
In the jungle and the hills:
Watched them lap the fetid waters,
Watched them as they made their
kills.
| have seen men led to slaughter.
Meeting death with steady eye:
Seen Gods wrath upon the water,
And His majesty on high.
All, I've lived. and found it worthy;
Life is good. and lfre is sweet
When your heart within is leaping
To a dear hearts answering beat
But the dead days now are master
OF my lonely. stricken SOUL
And | pray that time move faster
To the end. deaths pleasant goal
So my face turns to the sunset,
To the evenings quiet glow;
And my eyes toward the heavens.
Where my dear ones wait | know.
For they come to me when dreaming.
Gentle hearts. and promise me
Peace beyond the sunsets cleaning,
Peace beyond the other sea.
All, I'm tired. God. I'm weary.
Weary of the rack and wrath:
Weary of the long. long twilight.
Weary of the lonely path.
Heavy are the years in turning.
Slow my steps down through the
gray;
God. my heart is yearning, yearning
For the ones across the way.

INCREASE IN POLICE.
Another Plain Clothes Police Man
May BE Engaged for Special
Work

w
North Yakima has one more po-
liceman, j. R. Elmore, former black
smith on West Yakima avenue, hav-
ing been added to the patrol force as
a regular officer to patrol the East
Yakima beat.
Another increase, plain clothes
man has been practically decided
upon This new man will be on spe-
cial work a protection of morals of
the city in necessary regulations fol-
lowing the closing of the restricted
district. The police have decided
that none of the women who left the
city shall return under any guise,
and the special man will keep sharp
lookout.
Chief Short has arranged for
special force for today, and there will
be ample protection in every way.
Persons using firecrackers and other
noise producers on Yakima avenue or
nearby business districts will be liza
BILE to- arrest, orders having been spe-
cially issued prohibiting the use OF
explosives in the business section.
That a burglar entered home on
Capital Hill Thursday night and was
chased away by the wife of the owner
at the point OF pistol was the re-
port circulated in North Yakima Fri
day. but denied by the woman who
is said to have been the heroine in
the case
The rumor was given considerable
credence by many. it being generally
known that the family possess con-
siderable jewelry and other valua-
bles. while the fact that they live
on the outskirts of the city gives any
thing but ample police protection.
