MTT|TAS H|GH LINE
CANAL GROWS Nearer
Reclamation Officials Have Confer
ence at Ellensburg and Proposal
VIII Be the Result.

Construction of the high line canal
at Ellensburg and in Kittitas county
is getting nearer, according to tele-
grams sent out from the capital Of
Kittitas county. c. H. Swigert and
Ralph Williamson, engineer and attor-
ney respectively Of the reclamation
service were in Ellensburg last week
and conferred with the board of d.
.rectors Of the high line canal. The
conference, according to an Ellens-
burg dispatch, was held as the result
of telegraph orders from Richard A.
Ballinger, secretary Of the interior, to
the reclamation service officers in
Yakima. Ellensburg business men in
touch with the situation express them
selves as we'll satisfied with the pro-
gress being made
1.-THE high line canal looks like
sure thing" said a director today.
1.-THE construction Of the canal has
looked feasible for some time. Our
doubt has been whether or not the
government would have the necessary
money to spare to construct it. Now it
looks as if the government will lend
aid even If it cannot spare the money.
Within the next week, believe, there
will be developments which will prac-
tically assure the canal"

Agricultural Expert From Massachu-

All about fruit raising in the west is

of the Worcester. Mass, Chamber OF
Commerce in a communication to the

did not see Yakima but he was

beat the west raising apples a mile.
The western fruit cannot touch the
New England for flavor although,
perhaps. some larger than we could
raise without fertilizing and much
pains. They have a rev that are very
fine in flavor but the majority are fiat

OF PRESIDENT DIAZ.
Aside From Meeting Taft at FL PasO
Mexican President Wants to
Show His Importance.

Ell PASO, Tex, Sept. 1S.-When
President Taft and President Diaz
meet here Oct. 16 and are formally
introduced by Gov. Enrique C. Creel of
the state of Chihauhau, it will be an
event of much pleasure to Mr.. Taft
but will mean a whole lot more to
President Diaz.
To show the people of the United
States who he is, what he is, and his
power in the republic south of the
Rio Grande. This is the principal
object of President Daz, according
to those who are familiar with the
affairs of Mexico, and what little pol
itics there is in the country. For
Mexico is hardly a bit like the United
States, although a republic-that is
so far as the election of its officers
are concerned.
President Diaz is due to arrive in
the city of Chihuahua on Oct. IA,
where he will rest for day as the
guest of Gov. Creel. The presidential
train will then proceed northward to
Ell Paso, and is scheduled to arrive
simultaneously with that bearing
President Taft and his party which
will come in from the west.

DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS
What Law Requires of Paper Patrons
In Way of Paying Up.

The following is a synopsis of the
United States supreme court decision
regarding delinquent subscribers:
/. Subscribers who do not give eX-
press notice to the contrary are con-
sidered to renew their subscription.
2. If subscribers order discontin-
uance of their periodicals, the pub
Usher may continue to send the paper
until all arrears are paid.
3. If subscribers neglest or refuse
to take their periodicals from the
postoffice they are responsible until
after they have settled their bill and
ordered their paper discontinued.
4. If subscribers move to other
places without Informing the publish
er and they continue they are respon-
sible.
5. The courts have decided that re-
fnsing to take periodicals from the
postoffice or moving and leaving them
uncalled for is prima facia evidence
of intentional fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not want
to continue taking it, otherwise to
send it until an express notice with
all arrears is sent to the publisher.

heard the application of Mrs. Alice
J. Keen against her husband, Chas.
A. Keen, for support and suit money In
the divorce case of herself against
her husband pending in the superior
court. The Keen's are well known
residents of the Sunnside country and
Mr.. Keen is an old timer, at one time
having been extensively engaged in
the sheep business in this county. in
which he accumulated fortune which
he invested in Sunnyside irrigated
lands.
Mr.. Keen. through his attorney, Mr.
Chaffee of Sunnyside objected to pay
ing any support or suit money on the
ground that Mrs. Keen had separate
property amply sufficient to support
her and pay the costs of her suit Mr..
Snively, representing Mrs. Keen. how
ever, contended that a married woman
did not have to use up her separate
property to support herself and pay
lawyers and court costs. Judge Preble
decided that Mrs Keen did not have
to sell or mortgage her separate prop
erty either to support herself or hire
attorneys to protect her rights and he
allowed her $75 for witnesses: $50 per
month for support and $500 attorneys
fees all of which Mr.. Keen must pay
by October 1, exceut that an income
Of $18 per month which Mrs. Keen
already has Is to be deducted from
