SALOON LICENSES
TO Be RAISED
PROPOSED ORDINANCE FIXES FEE
AT $1,000

An important ordinance before
the Council for its first reading Tues
day was the one raising the license
fee for the sale of liquors in saloons
to $1,000 and requiring the bond to
be $1,000. Most towns of the size
OF Kennewick have raised their
saloon license fee to that figure and
as the town sadly needs the money
the proposed raise will undoubtedly
be adopted. So far as the present
knowledge goes all the bars now
running will renew their licenses at
the higher rate when the present
license under which they are selling
expire. One license runs out dur
ing the present month but the re
run until Spring. Under
the new law the Secretary of State
must endorse every license which is
a precaution to insure the state in
the collection of its per cent of the
license fee.

J. R. HOWARD'S
1909 RECORD
GOOD FARMING ON GOOD LAND
GETS GOOD RESULTS

Wednesday the Howard threshing
outfit pulled in, and the Horse
Heaven harvest was finished.
Howard's record is a good one.
His crop yield is 64OO sacks, about
half and half blue stem and turkey
red. The average yield for his en-
tire acreage is above Il bushels to
the acre. His best yield was on
piece OF 10 acres that yielded S12
sacks, or 16X bushels to the acre.
Counting the actual acreage and the
$50 acres on the B. J. Brown home
stead, he is a winner by a slight
fraction in yield and therefore claims
the best piece of wheat in Missouri
this year.
Howard has sold 1000 sacks for
81 ,351 so, at 81 cents per bushel
for bluestem and 81 cents for the
5000 sacks of red. The total value
OF his crop is close to sl1OO, and he
estimates his profits at $4,000 for the
year. Howard owns about two sec.
tions, and has 1000 acres OF tillable
land, but of course part of his land
is in summer fallow, so that he had
about 4SO acres leased to make up
the 1000 he had in crop this year. !
This is plain unvarnished story
and carries its own convincing ar.
gument.

COUNTY AUDITOR
JENKINS RESIGNS

At the September meeting of the
County Commissioners Monday W.
). Jenkins resigned the authorship
OF Benton county, and his resigna
ton was accepted by the board. He
will engage in the abstract business.
having purchased half interest in
the Benton County Abstract and
Title Co. He will be general man
ager of the business and j. r. Nc
heand will devote part of his time
TO other interests. The board elect
ed the present capable and pains
taking deputy, A. f. Verify, to sue.
ceed MIR. Jenkins. and he will be in
charge as soon as his bond arrives
His place as deputy will be filled by
}. G. Boyle, who is experienced in
office work and has been working as
an abstractor for years. Under the
new administration the interests of
the county will be we'll and accu-
rately taken care of. Mr.. Jenkins
has made one of the best auditors in
the state, and his retirement to pri-
vate business, where he can make
more money, is a distinct loss to the
public Service. All the county off,
cials are this week filing their esti-
mates of the expense of running
their Offices for the ensuing year
with the board in accordance with
the new law.

GLOBE TROTTER
VISITS KENNEW|Ck
WAl0ERlUST" ERIC ON HIS
WAY ROUND the GLOBE

Eric Mengers of Blexen, Germany
Billy Dircksen's old home in the
Naterland, was in here yesterday
visiting and left today for Victoria
where he takes steamer to continue
his round-the-world trip. Erie
Mengers will be remembered by
many as an employee of the Dirck-
sen Market couple of years ago.
When he left here he went to Seat
tie and down to California and
thence home. This time he is re-
tracing his steps but will 60 on
around. He has been gone about
s months and expects the remainder
of the swing around the circle to
consume Il year and half. When
he was here before his comrade,
VIM. Meyer was here and worked
for King 4 Son, but he is now in
Melbourne, Australia.
Eric came to New York and then
to Chicago, where he worked for
several months. He then made
side trip into Kansas and came back
north and went up into Alberta,
Canada. Fare from his home TO
kennewick is something like $135,
of which S54 is required for steamer
to New York and $50 railroad fare
here. At Victoria he again takes a
steamer of the Canadian Royal
Steamship Co., and goes to the
Hawaiian Islands, where he touches
at Honolulu and principal ports of
Samoa and Tahiti for short stops.
He then goes to Oakland, New Zea-
land and Sidney, Australia. Thru
Meyer he is acquainted with condi-
tions there and he expects to make
long stop there. From there he
goes to Cape Town, South Africa,
where he has relatives, and will 60
over the southern part of the African
continent. Il don't expect to go
where Roosevelt is, tho, " says Eric.

FR|IT GROWERS GET
WAREHOUSE LOCATION
vrW WAREHOUSE AND TEAM
TRACK ON NORTHERN PACIFIC

A crew of Northern Pacific survey
on under Jack Staser were here
Wednesday, and surveyed the team
..,ck md ware house track which
has been promised for some time.
The new track starts from the house
track east of the freight house near
the old we'll and coming out on the
proper curve, parallel Front street
and few feet distant from the north
line Of Front street. extending as far
az the west line of Pacific street so
far as the present survey indicates.
On this new spur the Fruit Growers
association is given an excellent To-
cation, 50 feet west Of Tacoma street
facing south on this new track.
This location will place their ware
house north of the telephone office
across Front street. The Fruit
Growers warehouse will be 50xlOO
feet, This will be the only location
given on this track for the present.
1t has been suggested that this is an
other move of the Northern Pacific
to eheekmate the North Coast and
prevent them from obtaining addi-
tional width of right-of-way from
the Northern Pacific by condenna-
ton should they decide to use the
Front street route. This was the
method used couple of years ago
to head off the North Coast at the
foot of the hill west Of town when
that spur was built there in hurry
up style.
