CLEARING HOUSE :.
At NORTH YAKIMA
IRRIGATION TOWN
MAKES GOOD PROGRESS,
Hanks OF North Yakima Decide 10
Establish Regular Metropolitan
Clearing House-Dally Volume Of
business VIII he Recorded.

That North Yakima is rapidly as
suming metropolitan aspects from 0
commercial standpoint, is shown that
n clearing house will soon be estab-
llshed by the bankers of that thriv-
Ing city. The Republic says:
Definite announcement was made
this morning by Charles Heath of the
Yakima Valley bank that within a
short time the banks OF North Yakima
will be conducting clearing house op-
erations. The bankers have consider
ed the feasibility OF establishing a
clearing house here for some time and
final arrangements have been COM
pleted.
The rear room OF the Yakima Ma
tIonal bank will be fitted up for the
clearing house. A manager Of the sys-
TEN will be elected at the next meet
ing of the bankers.
Daily Reports 10 BE Made.
This announcement means progress
in the business affairs OF North Yaki-
ma. II means that each day a report
will be issued by the manager stating
the clearings of that day. Each Dank
will send its clearings to the house and
the aggregate amount of all the banks
will constitute the clearlngs for tnat
day. "
This system rs, as is known, carried
on in all the large cities or the Unlteu
Stateh. North Yakima will be one OF
the few towns OF its size of the country
that can boast OF clearing house.
That fact certainly is a splendid bar
: ometer OF prosperity in itself. The
system will rate this city with such
cities as Seattle. Portland, Spokane
and Tacoma, and It's reports Win De
published with theirs.
There are periodicals published and
circulated through the country which
devote their pages to bank clearings'
and the comparing OF them with the
different cities All banks or associ-
ated banks, are dealt with in this man.
ner and North Yakima will, of course,
be rated among the prosperous and
thrifty associations of America.
Manager Yet to BE Chosen.
Everything is in readiness for the
work to begin All that remains to be
done Is to elect a manager and
to fit up his room in the Yakima
Bank building. Bankers and property
owners in general are much pleased
over the decision reached by the asso-
ciated bankers, and North Yakima has
ADDED another factor in the building
OF a great city.

move by asking consideration of MS

PETTIGREw OFFERS IT.

Pettigrew's dramatic declaration that
the matter should be submitted to the

DUBOIS ARGUMENT.
Dubois then addressed the committee
earnestly and adroitly for nearly mar
an. hour. He stated that Presiueh.
Smith was living in violation of the law
and could not be punished. He chars-
ed a compact between the Mormons
and Republicans under which Utah was
TO be Republican and polygamy I'M
mune. He also stated that senator
Smoot could be a senator only by con-
sent OF the so-called Mormon nier-
archy; that there would soon be i
senator's amenable to Mormon inilu-
ence. He discussed the testimony in
the Smoot case at some length. Il
berated President Roosevelt for ms
protection to Senator Smoot. He made
the assertion that polygamy was stu
rampant and hourishing. he said that
Idaho would certainly be Democrats

Senator Smoot, adding that Illinois

KING ANSWERS DUBOIS.
Judge King answered these argu-
ments seriatim. He accused DUBOIS OF
ieereancy to Democratic principles and
party. and said he was trying to be
Democratic dictator to states having a
Mormon population. he accused him
of favoring Mormon disfranchisement
which Freddy partially denied. King
argued that the plank is meaningless
