change of grade necessary. This
change is practically impossible with
out immense cost.
The switch is on an embankment
from seven to ten feet high and is
fourteen feet wide at present. This
brings it to within fourteen feet of
the proposed grade of the North
Coast. while TWENTY-FIVE feet is me-
cessary for clearance.
The trouble over the Granger
switch has long been anticipated and
row the question will be before the
courts to decide.

A TRADES COUNCIL.
Worker in Conference
With the Local Labor
Leaders.

Organization of Trades Council
err c. o. Young of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor to be the reason for
his visit here. Young has been one
of the strongest anti-Jones workers
and some of the union men of the
city believe that he has come here
with the idea that the North Yakima
workingmen can be "lined up
against Wesley L. Jones in his ace
for the senatorship.
Young has been classed as an An
keny man, but says that he isn't for
Ankeny specially but is anti-Jones,
whom he wants to see defeated. He
does not deny that he is not repub-
lican, but proclaims the idea that
despite the fact that he has been a
democrat and now is independent
that he will participate if possible in
the republican primaries. He says
he does not know whether or not he
will vote the republican ticket, but
has stated that he will be against
Taft.
On Thursday evening he met some
of the labor leaders of the city but
he did not get very warm recep-
ton. The union labor men of North
Yakima are satisfied that Jones is
considerably better than Ankeny and
are not looking for orders to vote for
the Walla Walla man.
A meeting of the state executive
committee of the American Fedora
tion of Labor is to be held in North
Yakima next week, according 10

Leading Man i'm Milwaukee Railroad
Construction Takes Hold of
Project.

Charles F. Bailey was in North
Yakima thursday on his return TO
Granger after a conference with CAL
houn. Denny & Ewing of Seattle le-
garding the reclamation of Snipas
mountain. He was accompanied by
f. w. Cummings of Seattle, who has
been secured as engineer on tie
Snipes mountain project, which has
assumed very substantial shape un-
der the combined efforts of the pee
pie of Sunnyside and Granger.
Mr.. Cummings designed and IN
stalled the enormous sluicing plant
that is being used by the Chicago.
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway in
making the largest fill in the world.
This fill is located on the west side
of the Cascades, fourteen miles from
the summit. and contains one million
cubic yards within a distance of one
mile The entire fill is being placed
by the use of a sluicins plant in con-
nection with which there are pumps
run by hydraulic power that lift
1000 gallons per minute to an ele-
walton of 500 feet.
Mr. Bailey says: "The people of
Granger and Sunnyside are awake
to the large possibilities in the wa.
of using water power which has long
run to waste almost within the shad-
ows of Snipes mountain and they will
make a strong effort to cover by hy-
draulic pumps that portion of the
mountain lying above the lands that
will be served by an inverted sy-

MRS. HAINES DENIES.
Declares That Her Confession in An
mis- Case Is Not True.

in the Haines case today centers in
the conflicting statements of the diff
ferent counsel connected with the OPP
posing sides of the case. Frank 5.
Wild. Mrs. Haines counsel. insists
that. the confession to the contrary
not withstanding. Mrs Haines never
has been guilty of improper conduct
with Annis.
Wild denied the published story
that Mrs Haines is trying to effect a
reconciliation with her husband and
would testify in his behalf Regard
ing the much exploited automobile
ride on which Haines took Annis
Weldon c. Percy. the first lawyer
called on the case by Haines and his
brother. said that after Haines' re-
turn from the Philippines his wife
convinced him that gossip connecting
her name with Annis was false. IN
order to silence the detractors. the
Captain openly invited Annis and his
wife to the barracks and afterwards
went riding. Subsequently the Cap
tain discovered the truth. He adds
that the talk about Mrs. Haines not
being in full possession of her facul-
ties when she signed the confession
is ridiculous and says fully twelve
hours elapsed between the oral and
the signed confession.

were taken involves question of
800, 900 acres of land, which are the
property of the railroad If the suit
Is decided in its favor, and the prop
erty of the Indians the other way.
Remarkable memory of the aged
chief was shown by his statements
given through Major Jay Lynch as
Interpreter, in regard to the boun-
Diary marking. Blazed trees, mark
ed stones and other land marks were
used to mark the route OF the boun-
Diary over the mountains, and Spen-
Ger and Olney participated in the
marking of them.
