OPTION GIVEN ON
BIG WATER POWER
to the Hanford Company Still Has
Large Power i'm Hand.

William Filey of the Columbia river,
opposite Hanford, or rather, who lives
near the lower end of Priest Rapids
on the east size or the river, has been
in North Yakima recently. He says
ton on his water power to a company
which will undertake development
work is erroneous. He has given an
option but it is friendly one to an
old acquaintance authorizing him to
dispose Of the property if he finds any
person sufficiently interested to pay
the figure. The two reports in circu-
lation here regarding a definite sale
of the property Mr.. Filey says are in
correct. One of these reports was
that the Hanford people, who pur-
chased their power on this side of the
river from Mr.. Filey had taken that
en- the opposite side of the Columbia.
The other was that eastern capitalists
had taken it and proposed to pump
water to a large tract of land.
Mr.. Filey has water power which
will develop several thousand horse
power, which is probably worth 800,
900 or Whereabouts. At one time he
was willing to sell for $4,000 but his
present idea is that unless offered a
price at which he cannot afford to
hold he will decline to sell, but will
make lease of the power to any con-
Germ which desires to develop it. Mr.
Filey has 200 acres and owns approx
imately mile of water front. He be-
lieves that railroad development and
other progress now afoot near Priest
Rapids will result in a town of con-
siderable proportions and pretensions
just about where his holdings are.
Just at present" he said to the
Herald, II am allowing progress to
have full sway while go to the Sound
to have a look at the A.-Y.-P. expo
sition.'

THE JUDGE AND THE CARRIAGE

Let us take off our hat to the health
department of st. Paul, MINI.
Let us put our hat on, and then
take it right off again to Police Judge
Hanft of st. Paul Mimi.
And this is why.
When Mayor Lawlor, the other day,
observed through spasm of at least
four of his five senses, that the city
garbage wagons were being paraded,
reeking, uncovered, through the
streets, he complained.
The health department resented
dictation," and the uncovered wagons
continued to reek in the streets.
To make test the mayor had a
driver arrested and brought into police
court.
The health department hired a
lawyer, who argued that the city ordi-
nance directing that garbage wagons
be kept carefully and closely covered
was enacted at a time private con-
tractors collected garbage, and there
fore it could not apply. to garbage
collected by the board of health.
Wherefore let us bob the bonnet to
the board of health. May it and its
cute lawyer and its open, robust
wagons be ever punched in the MEM
cries of a grateful people.
And the judge said he would TAKE
THE MATTER UNDER ADVISE
MENT! He would decided it in one
week.
Wherefore let us left the lid to that
active. not to say impulsive, judicial
intellect which can determine in less
than eight days whether flies, smells,
germs and drippings from publicly
owned vehicle are good for the public
health and altogether desirable.
Minneapolis must be biting her nails
with jealousy at this superb exhibition
of garbage public service and judicial

in the fact that this principle may
prove correct, but that such investiga-
tons are being applied to agriculture.
This application holds in IT wonderful
possibilities for the farmer and for
the country at large because every
body is dependent upon the products
of the soil. Therefore it is necessary
for the welfare of all of us that the
farmer shall receive what is justly his
due. 1t will not only add to the pros
perity of the farmers as a class but it
will add to the attractiveness of the
profession or the occupation believing
as we do that this discovery in con-
nection with others that are to come,
will make the life of the soil tiller
much more attractive and lucrative.
The Yakima valley is already a
community devoted to the pursuits of
intensified and specis lied agriculture.
Here we have examples without num-
Der of young men turning from the
city to the soil. That is as 1t should
be- but that situation exists simply be-
cause of the opportunities presented
What is true of the irrigated sections
may later prove true of other sections
If scientific investigation reveals hid
den truths that will place agriculture
on plane with other occupations.
There is still another idea suggested
by the applications of scientific prin-
ciples to agriculture. We of the
Yakima valley have not as yet made
very deep inroads on the fruit prob
lem. We know something about it,
but methods of raising, elimination of
loss from various sources, such as
frost and insects, proper methods of
cultivation, pruning, spraying and the
like, and last but not least the right
methods Of packing and handling,
these are all problems which even
layman can determine are not thor
oughly solved. We are still in need
of a little more science, business
acumen far sighted sagacity, ETC., be-
fore our fruit industry reaches the
proper plane of perfection. Here is
offered an inviting field of investiga-
ton for our progressive ranchers. The
early bird will bag the worm

WHO HAS MADE GOOD

The old line politicians in this state
who are backing Secretary Ballinger
no matter what his official acts or the
effect of his rulings, have started a
hue and cry which has for its pur-
pose the ultimate resignation of Chief
Forester Clifford Pinchot. The truth
of the matter is that Pinchot and
Newell have made good in their re-
spective positions. They have been
able to achieve something for the last
ing good of the country as public Of
ficials. Ballinger has not. He is still
hanging in the balance. His work
may turn out well and it may not. 1t
makes no difference how long he has
lived in the state of Washington, nor
what he has done in private life. He
is now in a very responsible public
position and the occasion demands a
man of ability, resource and sagacity.
Thus far he has not developed the
calibre that the position requires. He
has appeared more vascillating than
forceful, more narrow than broad
minded, and these facts taken in con-
heCtioil Win lile gang Oh POLITICIANS
which dominate him, are not indica-
tive of any administration in his de-
partment that will measure up to
what the public demands. These men
ought to bury the Ratchet and work
together. But the real facts in the
case do not justify any right thinking
person in demanding the resignation
of two men who have proved their
worth in favor of a man who, to be-
gin with. is dominated by a bad polit-
ical element and besides that has not
shown a real capacity to tower above
the requirements of his position. 1t
will require all of Mr. Ballinger's
energy for a great many months yet
to make good"

THE EARLY BIRD.

The farmers of Iowa have discov-
cred that it is possible to secure a
larger yield of wheat through scientific
selection of the seed. Probably
Luther Burbank or some other worker
along the line of original research has
suggested the idea. At any rate. the
application of the principle is working
out satisfactorily and now they hope
to raise at least e. bushels of wheat
to the acre from seed that is healthy
and that has come from a producing
family.
1t all goes to show that science is
revolutioniZins the farming industry.
IT is an example of intensive agricult-
ure. An instance wherein the seleC-
ton of stock which has been applied
to stock breeding for many years is
being applied to plant life with
equally if not better results. In
raising beef and dairy cattle families
are traced back for generations and
the most prolific are the ones most
highly priced and the ones which in
the long run yield the best results
The same is true of the horse family
and of all other animal families. 1t
seems to be true also of the grain
family If it is, the productivity of
the earth has been increased some
what also the worlds wealth.
But the vital lesson for us lies not

BETTER MANAGEMENT
OF AMERICAN PRISONS
Warden of North Dakota Penitentiary
Deplores Spirit of Revenge
In Prisons.

SEATTLE, Aug. lift a man be
convicted of crime and serves a term
in prison and no steps taken to effect
his reform or cure, a greater crime
against society has been committed
than the crime of the Individual"
said F. o. Hellstrom, warden Of the
North Dakota penitentiary, in his adj
dress at todays session of the Ameri-
can Prison association. ANY prison
management that forgets the moral
ethics justice and humanity, cannot
justify its right to existence" contin-
ued the speaker.
THE prison that is managed and
dominated by the spirit of revenge is
simply barnacle that society must
remove in order to facilitate human
progress.
when the inmates character is up
lifted the duty of the prison manage
ment has in that measure been dis
charged, the shackles of crime have
been removed from the mind of the
inmate and there has been added to
society useful member. If the man
is discharged and goes forth with bitter
hatred and vengeance in his heart
against society, then both are to be
pitied for the storm will surely break
and some innocent person will be
made the VICTIM
1.-THE solving of the criminal prob
lem is a subject that reason and the
spirit of charity alone can solve. Your
schools, your churches and your pris-
ons are a pretty true index to your
civilization. Give us more schools,
more churches, more charity and less
barleycorn and revenge and there will
be less need for jails, reformatories
and penitentiaries."

RAILROAD BECOMES
SPECIAL BOOSTER
Northern Pacific Will Probably Stop
All CrOss-cOuntry Excursion Trains
Here for Few Hours.

North Yakima, in the opinion of
the Northern Pacific railroad officials,
stands for something special not to
be found elsewhere on the main line
of the road. This is the reason the
Worthington personally conducted
party of 100 travellers from Knoxville.
Tenn, is to stop here for six hours or
more on Saturday next North Yaki-
ma stands for horticultural and agri-
cultural development under irriga-
ton.
This is som ething that cannot
be seen to such advantage anywhere
else on the direct route between ST
Paul and Seattle. This is the reason
the railroad has made North Yakima
stopping point already this season
for parties travelling east or west over
its road. 1t is the reason the Worth
1ngton party is .halted here, and it is
reason which will obtain in the fut-
ure and cause practically all eXcur-
SION trains of sightSeers to be side
tracked here for a longer or shorter
period. In other words, this section.
having arrived at the point where it
has something to offer the traveller
elsewhere, is to be advertised in a
direct way by the reilroad. The OBJ
ject lesson method is to be followed
and patrons of the line will be stopped
here to see the real thing.
The Worthington party will arrive
at an early hour Saturday morning
and sidetracked here until about .
O'Clock in the afternoon. Officials of
the city and others of the citizens
have received special notices of the
arrival of the party from the Northern
Pacific railroad and notices have been
sent also to the Commercial club and
the Fifty Thousand club.
1t is understood that the policy of
stopping the party here is one which
will be followed by the railroad COM
pany with all such parties in the
future.

OH, NO. WE NEEDN'T BE
EXPERTS.

Those newspapers which are COM
PEELED to defend the new tariff law are
getting their topsails reefed in antici-
patton of a squall.
They say that the law is revision
downward.
True" they say enemies of So
ciety and other undesirables will be
able to twist the figures to make it
appear that there have been no re-
auctions, but only experts can unravel
the mysteries of the schedules and the
percentages"
Oh. no. One need not be an expert
to know EXACTLY whether the new
tariff is good or bad.
The people of the United States
complained for some years that
PRICES of necessities were GOING
up faster than wages.
They complained that trusts were
multiplying and increasing in power.
Both the republican and democratic
parties promised. if elected toerevise
the tariff so that this state of affairs
owuld be stopped.
New we need not be experts to find
out whether the new tariff bill full
flfils the promise.
Here is the simple test:
If between now and 1912 WAGES
GO UP faster than the price of shoes
and stockings and bread and meat
and clothes and coal-then the tariff
has been revised DOWN.
If you have less left in your pay
envelope after paying the weeks bills,
then the tariff has been revised UP.
If labor wars are forced by trusts
and the cost of living is higher and
higher then the tariff has been re-
vised UP.
And you don't need to be an tex
pert nor to study any Schedules"
before you or your 10-year-
daughter can tell whether YOU or the
OTHER FELLOW got the best of this
tariff bill.
The pay envelope and the family
expense account will answer the ques-
ton any day.

HERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY.

There is reason to believe that the
trouble which has been pending over
the irrigation of the Yakima Indian
reservation is in fair way to be set
tied, provided of course that the peo-
pie of this section do their share.
Chief Clerk Hauke of the Indian de-
partment has been in conference here
for almost a month endeavoring to
work out some plan which will be sat
isfactOry TO the Indian allottees and
also satisfactory to the white property
owners on the reservation and to the
reclamation service.
When the work of the reclamation
service was commenced in the Yakima
valley il was necessary to Straighten
out the water rights problem These
water rights in many instances were
in conflict and long and serious litiga-
ton was In sto'c for property owners
unless annie arranged. Contend
ing thlt no man needed more water
than would take care of his necessity
these rights We're Strengthened out by
being turned over to the government
which in turn promised to deliver all
of the water that was required for ir-
rigation purposes A similar situation
must be met and arranged on the res
ervatiOn before the Wapato project can
be undertaken in earnest

WOMAN ACCUSED
BY HER own SEX
Two Girls Charge Addie Swain With
Aiding Man In White Slave
Traffic.

TACOMA, Wash, Aug. 16.-
Around Addie Swain and Frederick
La Plante CITY Detectives Brady and
Miller have woven a web of evidence
with which Deputy Prosecuting At
torney A. G. Burmeister hopes to send
the two to the state penitentiary for
long terms. They are charged with
being engaged in the white slave
traffic here for months. The police
declare that the two working together
have accomplished the downfall of
many girls, some of whom are from
respected families. Among the most
important of the witnesses who will
appear against the two are Helen
Swanson and Rosie Desimore, not yet
20 years old
LIE Plante confessed to the police
when arrested that he had served a
10-year term in the Idaho state peni-
Tertiary upon evidence furnished by
his daughter.
Addie Swain is remarkable char
acter. She was given a good educa-
ton. At the time the populistic wave
swept over the country she blOssomed
out as one of it's most eloquent wom-
en- orators. Gifted with a beautiful
voice, she was also public singer
for many years. Her love for liquor
pulled her down, and in recent years
she has taken up fortune telling She
has by turns acted the role of trance
medium, psychic healer and clairvoy-
ant; and now, the police claim, she
has for long time been engaged in
the white slave traffic"
The two are in Jail, unable to fur
nish $1,000 bonds, in which amount
they are held for trial.

a bank an account in her name which
had been dormant for some time.
Property Held by Banks.

Property Held by Banks.
A Dublin bank once issued a list of
unclaimed property in its possession.
Here are two suggestive items from It:
BOX containing a number of silver
articles, coins, medals, and seals, and
having on it a crest, and the name,
e. S. Cooper
BOX containing diamonds and ar
ticles of jewelry lodged by DIR. An
drew Blake and George Jennings on
December %, 1895"
There are many similar boards in
Irish banks, numbers of which have
remained in them since the rebellion.
Some years ago an Irist peer, when in
Melbourne, heard in romantic cir
cumstances that a quantity of plate
had been deposited in a Dublin bank
by one of his ancestors at the begin
ming of the nineteenth century, and
that there it still remained. The
bank, on his communicating with it,
at once admitted his claim, and de-
livered up the treasure.
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1909-08-18

project in shape to be undertaken by
the reclamation service is more COM
pick than that of previous projects
because the Indians are harder fac
tor to deal with. They do not alto
gether understand the intent of white
people and they have been fooled so
many times that they are like wise
white people-they trust no one ex-
cept those whom they have known for
many years and have proven honest
They do not trust government officials
unless they have known them for a
period of years and inasmuch as new
man is agent at Fort Simcoe. he is able
to render very little assistance. The
situation is therefore up to those men
who have lived in the Yakima valley
for period of years and have gained
the confidence of the reservation In
dams. These men are able to do the
community and the Indians peculiar
and distinctive service by advising
them as to the proper course to pursue
and these men owe it to the commun-
ity to make a study of the situation
and give the Indians that advice which
will simplify the existing situation.
The reports of the reclamation serv-
ice show that the Wapato project will
water about 10000 acres. The pre-
liminary work on this project has in
part been completed. The Topographic
cal work is finished and the conserva-
tion of flood waters in the Cascades at
Lakes Kaches and Keechelus is well
under way. If there is anything in
the old saying that well begun is half
done" it is safe to conclude that the
watering of the reservation under the
direction of the reclamation service
would be a comparatively simple mat
ter from this point on, especially in
view of the fact that the canals and
faterals may be constructed more
easily in that section than in any other
locality in central Washington.
1t has been pointed out in the Her
aid times without number that the
completion of the reservation project
will almost double the irrigated land
in the Yakima valley and multiply the
total productiveness of this section
MANIFOLD. Certain sections of
the reservation are ideal fruit
districts and much of the rest of it
will produce the crops of diversified
agriculture essential to any COM
munity.
1t is clearly in accord with public
policy in view of these existing cOndi
tons, for every man in North Yakima
and the Yakima valley to exert his ut
most influence to make it possible for
the reclamation service to undertake
the building of the Wapato project.
However, no right thinking man will
concur for a moment in any plan
which will not give the Indians a fair
and square deal. Chief Clerk Haukc
has done excellent service in working
out plan which will conserve the in
terests of the Indians, but there is still
work to be done. The Indians must
have it explained to them thoroughly
by those whom they trust. There are
plenty of men in the Yakima valley
who have the confidence of almost
every Indian on the reservation. Their
services are just as this time in urgent
demand.
