An aching back is instantly
relieved by an application of
Sloan's Liniment.
This liniment takes the place

temporary relief.

Pending the outcome Of the con-
ference between mine owners and

1t is stated upon good authority
that fully eighty per cent of the Scot

sisting upon their demand for a re-
duction OF IL per cent in wages.

MA VALLEY, PARAIxEx,I0o xx1
THEN.

Prosser. Aug. 9.-The Northern Pa
cific railroad In building cutoff
through the Prosser district, will prob
ably closely parallel the line of the
North Coast railroad, now being con-
structed. and will be only a few hun
dred feet distant from that roadbed If
the surveys now being made are fol-
lowed While the corps Of fifteen en-
gineers now in the field, with head
quarters in Prosser, Is only making the
preliminary survey for this cutoff, they
have found an easy grade that will
closely follow the Strahorn company's
road. This connection is from Grand
view, on the Sunnyside branch, to the
main line.
The survey extends from Grandview
directly east, passing through the
Prosser district about a mile north of
Prosser. It will be between the city
Of Prosser and the proposed townsite
Of the North Coast, the property for
this townsite being in the hands Of the
North Coast railroad officials. 1t
strikes the main line near or at Glib
bon, six miles east Of Prosser.
While the desired connection Of Pros
ser with Grandview and Sunnyside will
be lacking if this survey is followed, it
will be a big benefit to the Prosser
district, cutting as 1t does through the
fine irrigated district under the Sunny
side canal. Prosser will have a connec--
ton with this new line of the Northern
Pacific and the North Coast for an
al 81 hor
one and a half miles north from the
city to the new North Coast townsite
At no point in the Yakima valley is
the rivalry of the Northern Pacific and
North Coast so frequently shown as in
the Prosser district. The North Coast
contractors have their headquarters in
Prosser and are supplying eight camps
from this point The Northern Pacific
has it's engineering quarters at this
point. At one point the Northern Pa
cific survey passes directly through
North Coast grading camp. In fire.
quent places the two lines cut through
property. The North Coast has it's
right of way and is doing it's grading
work. and this will force the Northern
Pacific to pay heavy damages to get
the right across the lands
There are reports that the Northern
Pacific will cross the river below Pros
ser with it's main line, and will not
recross the river until above Zillah,
leaving Prosser. Mabton and Toppenish
on separate line. In that case, 1t is
certain that many Of the through trains
will follow the present main line and
part will go over the other route
