MA-BTON SYPHON .
Yakima Engineer Says Work Nav

MABTON, Wash, Jan. 14.-C.
Mccullough, engineer of the United
States reclamation service, was i'll
Mabton few days and expressed
that If all the land on the Mabton
flats is signed up, the government
probably will start work on the sy-
phon this year. About 1000 acres
of land on the flats are still un-
signed. The government has appro-
priated $350,O00 to expend on the
Sunnyside project this year, and
Mabton is entitled to one-fourth of
this amount. The proposed work
in this vicinity. however, will cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000, so
that the work will not be completed
this year unless some of the other
work is postponed and more of the

THE TETON CANAL.

"Where there is much smoke
there must be a little fire." goes a
trite expression from the lips of
some sage long since deceased.
Whether this expression holds good
in the matter of statements to the
effect that the Tieton canal is faulty
in construction remains to be seen
when an investigation comes. This
is matter of great moment to the
Yakima Valley, and while it is not
good to advertise to a great exten:
that one of the gigantic reclama-
ton propositions here is apt TO be
held up owning to the fact that it
is placed in a position where 1t
would be annually destroyed by
melting SHOWS and gigantic bould-
ers, nevertheless if that is the case,
work should be stopped Immediate
ly. and in justice to the people, the
course of the canal should be chang
ed. 1t is to be hoped that any in
vestigation which follows will result
il adjusting the difficulties to the
satisfaction of all and that the in
~estigation will come speedily.

PLACING SEWER.
City Has Force of Men at Railroad
Crossing.

The city has a force of men at
work who will run the sewer under
the Northern Pacific tracks. Over
year the city has been trying to
get permission from the railroad to
allow this to be done, and have just
succeeded.
''This reminds me-" said a promi-
nent citizen as he stood watching
the men at work, "of a story that IS
told of James Hill. 1t seems a
property owner was DESTROYS of
building a runway for his stock un-
der the Great Northern tracks, but
could not get any satisfaction from
the petty officials with whom he was
corresponding. After six or eight
months had passed he learned that
Mr.. Hill would pass through the
town in his special car on certain
day. Arranging his affairs he was
on hand when the car arrived, and
boarding the train Immediately
sought Mr.. Hill and told him his
troubles. Mr.. Hill looked him over
carefully for a few seconds and theL
said slowly so that his words might
have a good effect, When the Great

to law they have what they want

court"

thought to be violently insane as a re-

said to be exactly similar to her
mothers Just before it was necessary
to take the latter to the asylum.
AS soon as the young woman's
brother was brought to this city after
the murder her heroism in comfort
ing him gave place to a terrible re-
action, and she was confined to her
bed with one sinking spell after an
other When she gained a little
strength and came out of her stupor,
she immediately began to talk of the
murder and it haunted her mind so
continually that she began to rave
about it. With constant care and
treatment She was brought out of
this state and seemed to be getting
along nicely until she began to grow
worse suddenly and since then has
been violent. her condition endanger-

After her first illness, and when

cATTLEMEN WIN FIGHT.
Feeding in Transit Rates Must Be
Given Them.

! SSSiIIS III u dbSll haIGS MUST Ee
Given Them.
Washington, ID. C-The interstate
commerce commission in an opinion
by Commissioner Prouty handed down
decision in the case of the Corn
Belt Meat Producers association VS..
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
Railway company and fifteen other
railroad companies. This case is one
that has attracted wide notice in Iowa
and elsewhere and yesterdays deci-
sion is partial victory for the Corn
Belt Meat Producers association.
1t appeared in this case that to
facilitate the handling of cattle for
feeding purposes the defendants have
permitted them to be brought in from
various breeding pastures, stopped
off for time to be fattened and then
sent on to market at the through
rate, plus some additional charge for
the privilege, and plus also the local
rate from the feeding point for the
additional weight which the cattle
take on in process of fattening.
This feeding in transit privilege is
granted by the tariffs of the defend
ant railroads in the states west of
the Missouri river, but is not granted
TO Iowa points. The commission held
that this results in an unlawful dis
elimination against Iowa points and
the complainant shippers. but rates
on live stock from Iowa point to Chi
cago We're not found to be unreason-
able. The grouping. however, it is
held, should be revised as at present
they apparently discriminate against
Iowa points.
