seemed to have gotten their moneys
worth and went away pleased with
the evenings entertainment.
The question OF sewerage which
has been agitating the minds OF our
citizens for several months has about
come to focus, so to speak. In
fact the matter will shortly reach
the point where it will be up to the
voters TO say whether or not we
shall have a sewerage system. The
city council met Tuesday evening
and the question was discussed in
all its phases. Proposed estimates
were carefully gone over and dis.
cussed in every particular. Coun-
oil then adjourned until tomorrow
evening, when City Attorney Miller
viii! present an ordinance relative 20
the sewerage system for adoption,
After adopting said ordinance and
going through many other formali-
ties of law, council will call a spe.
cial election TO vote on bond issue
1t has been decided to issue bonds
in the sum OF $50, 900 To make this
Improvement. The city adminis-
tration is not going into this matter
blindly, for 1T has had the city
surveyed from end to end and the
engineers have submitted the plats.
A committee also visited surround
ing towns and inspected the various
systems and their cost Of construc-
ton. Reliable contractors have
submitted proposed estimates and
by computing the various figures
and reducing them TO dollars and
cents 1T has been learned that it
will take 100000 TO do the
job. While the bonds might in
crease the taxes little, yet all fair
thinking people will agree that the
amount thus expended will be more
than ,hribled in the saving Of doc
tors bills, etc. The stagnated
ponds, which are nothing but hot
beds for germs Of all kinds from
TYPHOID bacilli to tuberculosis, will
then be given the 23 sign, while
the musquito will present his bill to
people in other SECTIONS.

THE MAN OF THE HOUR.

History teens with stories of men
who have grasped opportunity and
have secured their desired goal when
it seemed affair off but were capable
of seeing the exact moment when
their tide of fortune was rising.
Rev. Lee A. Johnson of Sunnyside
has entered winning fight for the
congressional race. He represents all
that is right and true in politics, not
because he feels that he has entered
the race at an opportune moment but
because he knows the cause he is
fighting for is right.
Mr.. Johnson is fortunate in being
"a man of the hour" He has fought
long and well for the cause of local
option. Now that the local option
ship will sail easily into the harbor Of
victory it is no more than right that
Mr.. Johnson should be at the helm.
He has fought her battles with her
and now to the victor belongs the
spells.

SHEEP BUILD HOUSE
YAKIMA FAMILY MAKES
A NOVEL INVESTMENT
Unable to Build House Within
Amount Decided Upon. They De-
eide on Way to Increase Cash.

Finding that they had planned a
home that would cost more than they
could invest, North Yakima family
has taken novel method of in
creasing their capital so as to build
the house. They have invested the
amount that they were able to spend
for house in sheep. which they have
placed on the range, and they expect
to build next season after selling the
sheep and the increase.
The method of this family is only
slightly different from that taken by
many others in building in the Yak
ina valley, for in hundreds of in
stances men have bought ranches in
sage brush. have cleared off the land
and planted it to trees, then sold part
of the ranch and built home from
the profit that they made. Or.
others have bought orchards. i'm
proved them to some extent and have
built their homes on profits from
crops for one or two years.

GET SLATE BOARDS
STONE BLACKBOARDS IN
The new HIGH SCHOOL
School Board Lets Contract Also for
Plumbing at Summit View
Building.

Two large school contracts were
let Monday evening by the school
board at its regular session, the
board determining to buy slate black
boards for the high school from the
Structural Company of Easton, Pa,
the first stone blackboards to be in
stalled in North Yakima schools, and
also letting contract for school
plumbing. The boards were pur-
chased at a price of 25A cents a
square foot. Whine the price OF
equipment is more expensive than
board or wall blackboards, the kind
formerly in use in all schools, the
cost of maintenance is considerably
less and the equipment is superior
in many other ways.
The plumbing contract for the
Summit View school was given to the
Yakima Hardware company, the low
est bidder for the work. at price of
S2560. The school will be connected
with the city sanitary system and
the contract calls for an up-to-date
plumbing arrangement.

Camnaign in Virginia.

HOT SPRINGS. Aug. 11.-With
A. I. Vohrys,. Taft's Ohio manager,
Karger. already here and Chairman
Hitchcock to arrive tomorrow, the
spot lights of the national Republican
campaign seem about to focus on the
Virginia mountains.
From this time on Vorhys will
spend most of his time here. He to-
day added 10000 to 10000 to his
previous estimate that the Buckeye
state would give to the Republican
national ticket 100000 plurality.
He predicts the success of the state
ticket. conceding only one district
to the Democrats and four others as
doubtful.
Though vorhys brings with him
the demand from every party of the
state for the presence of Taft, the
inclination OF the candidate and
judgment OF his advisers is against a
travelling campaign.

On Senatorial Campaign.

Editor Herald
see that Mr.. S. J. Harrison of Sum
nyside and Mr.. Sam Cameron Of
North Yakima have filed their dec
larations for nomination on the re-
publican ticket for state senator.
/ do not know Mr.. Cameron per-
sonally, but I do know his record on
the local option question. He voted
against the local option bill in the
last legislature, and he stands on that
record before the people in seeking
this nomination.
Local option is a we'll recognized
principle in law, in the settlement Of
questions which involve both the
financial and moral interests of the
community. The saloon question in
wolves these interests to very large
degree. If majority Of the voters
in the republican party believe in
Local Option" touching the saloon
question then by all means let them
see to it at the primary election On
the Sth day of September that Mr.. s..
J. Harrison, whose record is clean
and will remain clean on this ques-
ton, gets the nomination, and that
Mr.. Cameron remains at home until
he learns to respect the wishes and
rights of the people.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.


The rapid development of the state
appears in the valuation of taxable
property recently completed by coun-
ty assessors and now under consider
alton by the county boards of equaliz-
alton. The increase in Pierce county
this year over last is over 10000
900, although this years valuation
does not include railroad property,
inasmuch as that will be assessed by
the state authorities this year. With
the railroad property included, the
increase this year over last would be
nearly $40, 100000. This. it is to be
remembered. is on the 60 per cent.
basis. On the 100 per cent basis
the increase in valuation would be
about $33,000,000. A part of the in
crease in Pierce county is due to the
timber cruise, yet in the city of Ia
coma alone the increase is a little
over $4,000. 1000.
: Yakima is another of the many
prosperous counties. The increase
this year, as shown by the county as
SCISSORS figures, is $7,73S,710. On
the 100 per cent. basis it would be
over S12, 100000. The percentage OF
increase is very large, for the total
assessed value is now S24, 40, 900.
In the last year there has been an in
crease of the assessable acreage OF
Yakima of 41,335; of acreage fenced,
31,504, and of acreage improved,
3l,941. Certainly there's something
doing in Yakima county. -Tacoma
