and continues till the following Sat-
urday promises to be big affair. The

from the business men and the gate
receipts. 1t is hoped by the carnival
management to raise sufficient funds
to carry the team throughout the
season and thus not call upon the
merchants for any funds.
Prizes are to be awarded young
ladies who succeed in selling the larg-
est number of tickets. The first prize
consists Of $3.50 diamond ring, the
second a $50 watch, and the third
a $50 ring. There are a dozen Of

GOMPERS' MAN FOR TAFT.

evidence is plentiful that the effect
OF Gompers' attempt to influence la
Dor for Bryan is not very productive
OF results. When the time comes to
vote union labor men will be found
exercising independence Of action.
Those that are employed will vote
to have that employment continued,
and those that are out of employment
will vote for the man most likely
to give it to him. Is there any one
who sincerely believes that the chan
ces for the return of good times
would be as good if Bryan is elected
as they would be under Taft?
A fresh illustration in point ac-
Cured at the MONDAY meeting in
New York of the Commercial Travel
ers' republican association. John w.
Armstrong, an organizer of the In
ternational Brotherhood of Electrical
" Workers, who was sent to Maine by
President Gompers to make speeches
lOl luc ueIlOCItLlC Sldle TICKET, cdIlle
out for Taft and Sherman. In his
speech he said:
1.-The men whom I have met and
conversed with in the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, are, as a rule, of the
opinion that it would be unwise TO
support Mr.. Bryan. The election Of
Mr.. Taft means the resumption IF
business upon safe and sound lines.
I have an abiding faith in the intelli-
gence and loyalty of the workingmen
to vote for Taft and the party and
principles that made it possible for
our workingman to occupy the en-
inent position he does, as compared
with the position occupied by the I'M
fortunate brother in the democratic
south, where the democratic party
has opposed the enactment of factory
laws, child labor laws and the organ
ization of workingmen."

BRYAN THINKS WRONG.

That Col Bryan is man who sell
dom thinks, and who when he does
think. thinks wrong" is a concise
statement Of the situation in the
republican national campaign, and
when Senator Beveride uttered
these words in North Yakima he told
a lot in a few words.
Bryan has had a half dozen differ
ent platforms. and he has deserted
every one of them, for he has realized
that he didn't think right when he got
the campaign writer's together and
instructed them. Some people dor !.
even give Bryan the credit for enough
thinking to desert these platforms.
but say it is because some of his
cooler headed managers have pull
ed him off his high horse" that he
has deserted them.
On the other side. Taft is given
the credit for being really deep
thinker, and is man who has never
started a mission without success
American citizens realize that when
It's a question between a man who
seldom thinks, etc and man who
has always made a success of his
thoughts. there is only one choice for
president
That's one reason BRYAN will not
be the man to succeed Roosevelt.

sees Great Changes.

Dell Fox, at one time a resident Of
this county now a real estate man
Of Seattle, is in the city on business
Mr.. Fox has not been in North Yaki-
ma for over a year and half. and
says the change in appearance is so
noticeable that he is almost unable
to locate any of the old landmarks.
ITO one who mas been a Yakima
booster and has always predicted
great things for North Yakima II is
indeed gratifying to see the wonder
full Improvements that have taken
place said Mr. Fox. What strikes
me greatest is the paved streets and
I believe The property owners will
never regret this move. OF course
the street cars make quite a showing
but good streets help as much as any
one thing 10 make city. I am also
glad to hear Of the activity in rail-
way circles, notably the North Coast
railway. Another railroad is badly
needed and will be Of immense value

JORDAN BETS $40
THAT HE WILL BE ELECTED
TO OFFICE OF CONSTABLE
Says Democratic Principles Are Al
right but He Needs the Money
and Wants an Office.

Pat Jordan. ex-democrat and now
republican candidate for the office
of constable in this city, is confident
that he will be elected at the general
election this fall.
In fact so confident is Pat that he
will defeat his democratic opponent
that he has wagered a $40 bill on
the result. He even went so far as
to give odds and bet democratic
friend of his $40 to SIS.
When Pat was told that he would
lose the right of franchise for gam
bling on the result of his election he
laughingly replied that it didn't am
cunt to much anyway.
"Why I left the democratic party
so that | might get enough votes to
give me an office" said Pat. 1.-The
republicans will do it. The demo-
Gratis couldn't. I like the principles
of the democratic party. but it's the
money I need. I'll bet $40 more
that I'm elected"
Pat Jordan was delegate to the
last democratic county convention
and has been a democrat ever since
he has been resident of Yakima
county.

ON Eve OF WAR
TURKEY AND BULGARIA
IN SERIOUS TROUBLE
France Acts as Observation-Disclosures
ianS Anxious for War-POwers
Act.

PARIS, Oct 5.-France has es-
sayed the role of mediator with the
object of preventing war between
Turkey and Bulga, ia and as a result
of Foreign Minister Pinchon's series
of conferences today with representa-
tiyes Of the powers, and of active
exchanges which have been going on
between the various cabinets, it is
announced tonight that France,
Great Britain, Russia and possibly
Italy were prepared to act in unison
to preserve peace and to call con-
ference of the signatories of the Ber-
lin treaty to deal automatically with
the situation that has arisen between
Turkey and Bulgaria and to harmon
ize the conflicting interests that fresh
complications may be avoided. Al
ready certain tentative propositions
as basis for such conference have
been forwarded TO Constantinople
and If the porte's assent can be Sc
cured ana " IS regarded as certain
that peace will be maintained. The
danger of war is believed to lie in a
precipitate action at Constantinople,
where the conflicting interests may
force Turkey to engage in a war for
which she is III prepared. According
to information tonight Bulgaria
would welcome war as the Bulgar
ians are convinced their army could
march straight into constantinople
before the Turkish forces could be
modified

PIANO NOW ON EXHIBITION


yet, begin now. You will never re-
greet the time and effort spent in the
contest.
AT present the candidates are just
beginning to get their start and feel
ing the pulse of their friends to learn
their strength. Some of the candi-
dates are already beginning to real
ize how easy it is and wonder why
they had not entered contest be-
fore.
The interest in the Herald's great
voting contest is increasing every day.
-le prizes are especially liberal with
none of the Objectionable features
usually accompanying such affairs.
To win one of the Herald's prizes will
be gratifying honor and of immeas-
urable benefit and pleasure to the
winners.
The best way to poll up a large
number of votes is by securing
number of subscriptions to the Her.
aid. A little work low will be worth
ten times the amount later on. Get
in the contest with /. view to winning
and the fine prizes are worth vastly
more than the effort.

THE GREAT APPLE SHOW.

Yakima will be represented at the
great National Apple Show at Spo-
kane in December. The plan to ex-
hibit at this event is a step toward

ever be given the Yakima country.
The Yakima fruit growers should
strive to secure first place for the ap-
pies grown here, they can il proper
efforts are made for this valley grows
the best apples on earth, and the sue
cess will be known to the world. 1t
is good way to secure a steady and

fruit.

THE WORK OF CONGRESS.

The fifty-ninth and siNtieth con-
crosses will go down in history as
record-breakers. because of the large
number Of important measures en-
acted measures having directly to do
with the great business interests #
the country and standing between
the people and corporate greed and
oppression. The ffty-ninth congress
opened a new era in American legisla-
ton, giving emphasis to the fact that
the constitution is amply sufficient for
all the needs Of the people, safeguard
ing their interests and furnishing
them ample means OF protection. The
fifty-ninth congress was republican
congress, and all the great measures
enacted by it were republican meas
ures, originating with the republicans
and passed by republican votes.
There is still much to be done to
perfect the work begun by the fifty
ninth congress. Experience has dem
onstrated that a democratic congress
can not be depended upon to work out
any great system of reform. No re-
form in administration or in legisla-
ton has ever come about under a
democratic regime. AS at present
constituted the democratic party is
made up OF too many isms to be safe
in handling great questions of politi-
cal economy Two great questions
will soon come up for legislation
revision OF the tariff and remodel
ing OF our currency system. Twice
since 1880 the democrats have at
tempted tariff legislation, and twice
the busienss of the country was
brought to the verge Of ruin, and hun
dreds OF thousands of workingmen
were thrown out Of employment
Twice within the last thirty years the
democratic party has set up its stand
ard OF monetary legislation. First
it declared in favor Of putting the
printing presses to work in manufac-
turing greenbacks without limit and
second by declaring for the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio OF sixteen to one No evidence
has been furnished that the party has
recanted from its stand for fat
money Is it safe to trust the party
