Beverly White. one of the old time
newspaper men of Chicago, but now

a North Yakima visitor Monday. For
over a decade Mr.. White did the 'po-
lice 3" and special assignments on first
one and then another of the great
Chicago dailies, spending most of his
time with the Record Herald and the
Chicago Tribune. He belonged to the
night SQUAD and like the members of
the profession know the bunch"
about town. the characters both moral
and immoral as well as political.
He did his last piece of newspaper
work at the burning of the Iroquois
theatre in 1904. He was the first man
to enter the building over the bodies
of the dead. piled almost to the top of

ESTABLISH CAMP AT WAP.ATO.
Case 4 Eschbach. North Coast Con-
tractors. Make ii Basis for Supplies.

Word was received here this week
that it is the intention Of Case < Esch-
bach, grading contractors for the
North Coast railroad, to establish
their camp in Wapato about the last
of this month or first of August. This
will mean not only the supply camp
but the camps for those employed by
the contractors as well.
Case & Eschbach are employing a
large force of men at present in their
grading work. as we'll as many teams,
and the supplies for these will come
to Wapato after the time mentioned.
Not only will the money for supplies
come here but no doubt the greater
portion of the money paid in wages
will also be spent here.
What this move will mean for the
town can only be realized when the
large force of men employed and the
great number of horses engaged in the
work are known. It will mean the
addition of thousands of dollars to the
monthly pay roll of the city.-Wapa-

an Early Morning Fire-LOss is
Greater Than Insurance.

Fire on Tuesday last destroyed the
store and postoffice at Pleasant valley
causing a loss of several hundred
dollars to G. n. Kinney, postmaster
and store keeper. 1t is understood
that some mail was also lost though
but a slight quantity. Mr.. Kinney
had an insurance of 5000 on his stock
and $500 on his buildings. The fire
was caused by defective fue.
Mr.. Kinney had risen early and
lighted fire. going out then to care
for his stock. His children rose
shortly afterwards and their atten-
ton was almost imm ediately attract
ed by a fire on the roof. They called
their father who succeeded in rescu-
ing Mrs. Kinney. who has been ill,
and a very small quantity of their
belongings. and a sack of mail. AS
sistence which might have been of
value was near at hand but was sum-

LEADING CITIZENS CASUAL REMARKS
APR0P0S TO IRRIGATION congress

J. L. Hughes-''I am going to the
irrigation congress if l have to walk.
l shall do all in my power to see that
Yakima gets there with a big and rep
resentative delegation. If Yakima is
not interested in irrigation some other
section ought to carry off the recla-

DR.. G. G. F1etcher-"I went to the
irrigation congress in Albuquerque
and l want to go as a delegate again
this year. / had most excellent
time at last years meeting and I be-
lieve that the meeting this year will
surpass it in interest. At least as far
as we of Washington are concerned
it should surpass the meeting of last
year. I am glad to hear that the in
terest is so general"
John H. Weigel-'I am heartily in
favor of a big delegation to the irr-
cation congress. l want to see Yaki-
ma represented there with the largest
delegation of any section. Nothing
short of that will satisfy the natural
pride that Yakima should have in ir-

There is no other sensible way to look

AIdrich Organization.

w nat La FOllette naQ IN mlnd was
the Aldrich organization. Speaking
of the tariff act the Wisconsin senator
said:
ION that day last winter when M.
Aldrlch was permitted to name all the
committees of this senate, this bill be-
came a law
Today the public pretty well under
stands this fact. The people have seen
the Aldrich orga nization out from
under cover They have seen how it
reaches across the aisle which is sup
POSED to divide republican from dem
ocrat. and takes democratic and re-
publican votes impartially for some
special legislation desired by some
specially favored financial interes'.
They have seen senators appearing as
paid attorneys assert that the "con-
sumer lis a myth and that these
trusts are ghosts" They have seen
senators openly defy the people while
consulting in their committee rooms
with paid lobbyists and delivering
speeches written for them by atto:-
neys for interests seeking special leg
islation. And the results they have
seen in the tariff bill raising rates
and increasing the cost of living. when
reduced rates were the promise.
West Up i'm Arms
Such things cannot happen without
consequences.
Representative Stevens has just re-
turned from Minnesota. He reports
all the middle west up in arms. He
says the people are indignant. Their
resentment is aimed at everything re-
publican.
From all sides similar reports are
coming in. A political revolution is
apparently impending. and following
an overthrow of the republican ma
jority in the house. it is predicted that
there will be a breaking up of party
lines and the development of an in
dependent party. The beginning Of
this party will be seen when candi-
dates appear for congress. and it's fur
Their development will work out when
successor is to be named to Presi
dent Taft.

NINE AND THINE.

My neighbor has trees that are SPLEEN

And a garden of beautiful bloom.
And hoCkS that are carefully tended
And acres on acres of room,
And the rays of the sun newly risen
Each day on more benefits shine,
He thinks they're exclusively his'n-
But they're really his'n and mine!
For he calls upon me to admire EN-,
These things that the world calls
his own;
And he probably wouldn't desire 'em
If he had TO enjoy 'em alone.
His place would only be a prison
However extensive and fine,
If he held ii too strictly as his'n
When it's really his'n and mine.
Though thrift be a joy or a duty,
And it's we'll to have treasure to
spare.
There's no show of boarding up
beauty.

For the men who are chosen to chez

flowers
Each feeling of envy should perish g. ..
For they're really their'n and ours!

LOST Wallet:
HONEST CLERK
JACK CATALAN IS A HAPPY MAN
Left Trousers i'm Bath Room at Hotel
But Wallet With $40 was Saved
BY Frank Clymcr.

IF you had been in the Yakima ho-
tel at 8 o'clock Monday morning you
would have seen a good picture of a
man who had just lost $40. If you
had touched the man you would have
found that he was badly agitated. If
YOU had examined still closer you
have discovered that the man was no
other than Jack Callahan. But Jack
was darker blue than ever before
and darker than almost anybody
most ever gets. You see $40 plunks
is more than anyone likes to lose all
in one lump, and Jack is thoroughly
human.
1t appears that on Sunday Jack
went horseback riding and was away
almost all day. He returned home al;
night thoroughly tired and just as
dirty, so he went to his room and
from there to the bath room. where
he hung his corduroy trousers up on
the wall In the trousers pocket was
a wallet containing the aforesaid
$40. When he finished Jack made
his way to his room without the
trousers but happy in the thought
that the feathers were inviting
camping party in;o the hills was
planned for Monday and Jack was up
early, but no pants hung on the bed
post. Then Jack remembered and he
made a dive for the bath room, where
trousers were discovered. hope rose
for an instant only to be dispelled by
the discovery that the pocket was
empty,-wallet and money had disap-
peared. Manager Schroeder was
routed out of bed and the premises
searched. Then Chief Tom Storey was
called upon to do the Sherlock
Holmes double barreled detective
stunt In the meantime Frank
,Clymer. the night clerk. was called
up ana in the midst of the discourage
ing situation he appeared smiling He
had gone into the bath room during
the night To turn out the light and
discovered the money, which he
saved. Jack was so happy that he
handed Frank 10 as his share in the
reunion.

NEW NATIONAL POLITICAL
PARTY ASSUMING FORM
Ten Senators Opposing Tariff Bill and
Opponents OF Speaker Cannon i'm
House From Standardization
Taft Not Out and Out for AIdrich
and Old Gang.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.. July 16.-
A new party to bear the name Pro
gressive,' is taking shape. Every
day sees the old -.Democratic' and
Republican" lines more faint. Every
day sees the issue more sharply drawn
between bipartisan self-interest. on
the one hand and the peoples inter-
est on the other.
The vote on the tariff bill is ire
mendously significant. That 10 re-
publicans-a sixth of the party
voted against the party measure came
as shock even to Aldrch.
A few weeks ago Aldrich turned
with a sneer on Senator Beveridge
and asked mOckingly:
What is it that you and your pro-
gressive' friends would like"
He used the term in ridicule.
On the evening of July 8, when
the 10 progressive republicans voted
against the passage of the tariff bill,
and used the name of President Taft
as their justification. Aldrich took a
different tone. He said:
Party of MajOrities.
'The republican party is a party of
majorities. The senator from Indiana
does not speak for the republican par
ty. He has no right to call here the
name of the president of the United
States in support of any of the sug
gestions he has made. Those of us
who are here representing states and
voting as majority IN this chamber
represent the republican party" and
so on.
The Rhode island senator had come
down to an Apologize and almost
whining tone. He was seriously dis
turbed.
Another thing that disturbed the
senator from Rhode Island was the
rumor that President Taft had at last
voiced a sympathy for the Progress
ives" He is quoted as saying:
Il hope all the progressive members
of the senate will vote against the
bill. The moral effect of such a vote
will be tremendous. 1t will help to
get a better bill from the conference.
1t will help the members of the house
in fighting for the reductions of the
house bill"
The report spread rapidly and was
taken to mean that Taft had quit
his hard-and- fast alliance with Aid
rich. Those senators who had helped
to make up Aldrich's SO votes. heard
the news with sorrow They had sup
posed that Taft was on their side to
stay
Words of Beveridge.
The words of Beveridge replying to
Aldrich in the senate had solemn
sound.
THAT pledge (for revision down
ward),' he said, was voiced by our
party's candidate and leader. in the
party's name. That promise and the
peoples faith that it would be kept
was one of the three principal rea-
sons why the people made our candi-
date their president. To keep that
pledge has been the effort of those
republican senators who have bat
tied against increasing rates. Our
votes shall be cast in harmony with
our party's pledge as voiced by our
party's leader-the nations presi-
dent"
So 10 republicans broke over party

lines. The states from which they
come are the states which hold the
balance of political power. The PRO
gressive" members of the senate-a
group very likely destined to be the
nucleus of Progressive party'-are

diana; Doliver and Cummins, Iowa;
Nelson and Brown, Nebraska: Nelson
and Clapp, Minnesota; Crawford
South Dakota; and Bristow. Kansas
Progressive" on the democratic
side of the chamber who have acted
with the republican "Progressives"
are Gore and owen, oklahoma: New
lands, Nevada; and Snively, Indiana.
Progressive Movement.
In sympathy with the "Progressive:
movement but not bold or strong
enough to be with it in the tariff
fight. are several republican members
of the senate like Borah. of Idaho;
Dixon. of Montana; Bourke, of Ore
gon; Johnson, of North Dakota; aul
Jones. of Washington. For these
there is still hope.
In the house of representatives the
"progressves'' are the "anti-Cannon
insurgents" Victor Murdoch, of Kan
sas Cooper and Lenrott, of Wiscon-
sin. and others who made the good
fight against the Cannon rules-these
are the "Progressives'' in the lower
house.
1t will be well for the people to
watch these men. They are coming
light along. all of them.
Shaking his finger in the face of
Aldrich La Toilette uttered pro-
phetic warning when he said:
1.-THE clock has struck for the old
order in this senate. The time has
gone by when one man can hold up
his finger and have his will. The tim
IS here when the peoples voice will
h" heard and when it will become
effective in the formulation of our
laws"

SOCIAL AMENITIES FOR g
THE SCHOOL GIRL Y

REQUIRES no other distraction. Such
country tramps are taken in parties, the
young people pairing off as they wish,
but never straying away from the others.
It is not good form for a girl to go off
with a young man on a tete-a-tete expe'
dition TO remote places
Many girls now drive their own auto
mobiles, whereby a whole new field opens
up in which to show politeness and CON
sideration. AS the seat beside the driver
is recognized as the most comfortable, 1t
always should be offered to any older
woman you are taking out, though she
may decline it, preferring the tonneau,
you, of course, giving her her choice and
not urging her to sit beside you when
her preference seems to be otherwise.
When you call to take your girl friends
out in your car you do not leave your
seat unless you wish to do so, but when
your guests are older people you show
them Difference by leaving your seat and
assisting them into the car, opening the
door of the tonneau, helping them in and
closing the door when they are comfort
ably settled You repeat this when you
bring them home again.
AS people are not always equipped
with motor garments, it is most thought
full to carry an extra long coat or two in
the car for the convenience of your
guests, who will greatly appreciate this
attention. A couple of footstools in the
tonneau also contribute to comfort, as
many persons find it impossible to sit
back as they would like, owing to the
fact that their feet dangle unpleasantly.
Much as they may wish to give them
pleasure, girls should never pick up chill
dren and take them driving in car
riage or a motor without asking per-
mission of the parents. The responsible
ity of taking children along is so great
that young people would do well for the
most part not to assume it, and they
should never take offence when parents
decline to let the children go.
