BIG BARN DANCE

S. A. Tucker HIS just completed
a big barn on his ranch in Horse
Heaven. Its dimensions are 36x40
feet and IA feet to the square. Be-
fore the horses were allowed to come
into their own, the people of the
neighEorhood held a rousing barn
dance there last week. They sure
did dance all night and until broad
daylight, 1t goes without saying
everybody had a good time. Mark
Potter WAS floor manager, while w.
NJ. Butler, mandolin, J. Graham,
violin, and Vic Heherlein, organ,
furnished the music. About 35
were present. This section of the
Horse Heaven is becoming noted
for its social times and its organiza-
tions which the people have formed
for their pleasure and betterment.

THEY LOSE A FAST GAME,

The bah game at Connell last
Sunday letween the Conncll and
kennewick teams was the best
article of ball put by either team
this season. Plaving was clean and
sharp, and the stick work good by
both sides. The final score was !
to 2 in favor of the Connell team
which was materially aided by the
umpire at critical points.
The Connell team had in three
players from kahlotus and two from
Mesa, while Kennewick took along
Rube Jackman and Horrigon of
Pasco to take the place of Easterly.
Jackman pitched the last three in
nings and no hits were made of his
delivery. The first two innings,
neither side scored and the game
started fast. In the third the Con-
nell bunch made three, an addi-
tional three in the fifth and tho
seventh run came in the Sth. For
Kennewick Anderson scored in tho
sixth, reaching first on q single and
scoring on the left fielder cracking
two base hit. In the eighth inning
Horrigan was on the bases and sccr-
ed from second on a single by
Anderson. The lineup of the Ken
newick team was changed as indi-
Gated above by Jackman and Hor-
rigan, and Joe Perry of the Report
er staff was the receiving end OF the
battery and caught an excellent
game. The boys feel that they pitt
up the game of the season and the
spirit of the team is improved as
much by the showing they made as
if they had won.

uNEARNED INCREMENT TAXED

The British budget this year pro-
vides for the taxing of the unearned
increment of the value of land to
the extent of one-fifth of that incre-
ment. In this the principle of
Henry Georges land tax doctrine
has been adopted in part. OF
course the great land owners and
nobility of England make loud
lamentation over it and doubtless IS
think that the country is going to
the dogs.
Yet they have but themselves to
blame for the tax. In countries like
England where fEc amount of land
Is limited and the population dense
the large areas of land devoted to
great parks and remaining unim-
proved work great injury and is
largly responsible for the destina-
ton of great masses of the people.
If this land were put under cultiva-
ton employment would be found
for many thousands and England
would not be so dependent upon
other countries for its food supply.
But the land lies idle and the
wealthy landowners who see the
value of that land increase through
no action of their own have but
little taxes upon it while other
people have had to bear the burden.
AS an instance there is the great
park around Cardiff castle. 1t is
situated right in the heart of the
city and is worth an immense sum,
yet it is rated at only $4,000 a year
while a tailor's shop 200 yards away
is rated at $4,75O. The British
government proposes to at least
partially remedy such an abuse and
though the landowners are cursing
the government for it the nation
has good reason to rejoice.

HORSE HEAVEN HUSK|ES
PUT ON FIRST COAT
FINISHING WORK DONE FOR The
PAINTERS LATER

The Horse Heaven ball players
put the first coat on the painters in
the ball game last Sunday and it
covered well. Not even Tom Irwin
could show through after the work
was done. The game developed
the fact that the Huskies from
Heaven could make about two
cracks on the ball with a single tree
while the painters were making one
swipe with brush. The final
score was 81 to -. The Heavy
hits of the Horse Heaven hitters was
the feature of the game. They
batted three twirlers out of the box
and were hungry for more. The
Howe boys got to be painters by
the Sherwin- Williams route and
played a good, steady game. The
Irwin brothers did the most arts
tic hourishers for the painters. The
Heberleins were the Heavy weight
stars for the Hill bunch, and young
Edwards, a left handler, was tht
slab artist at the finish and hits of
him were few and far between. Th'
victor felt especially good and W.
will hear of them again on the dia.

| CHEAP GOOD ROAD
" npru LETTER TO THE COUNTY
- COMMISSIONERS AND
SUPERVISORS

c..lomen: Now that every
,,1r seems to be talking good roads
r;.h to make a suggestion for the
improvement Of our roads, being an
experiment. which has been tired IN
,be East, and pronounced satlsfac-
/ tory and which is easy of construc-
tion and cheap in cost.
The department of agriculture
has discovered that the road most
favored by the farmers is firm
!. o.rtb r,ad because it is easy on
roa;c,e. and horses, smooth and
nOjseless, and enables the farmers
n make the largest use of the un-
sbod horse The trouble with such
road is that the traction-the pull
necessary to haul the Loads rela-
tirely too great. The problem pre-
santed was to keep the earth road
fprthe horse and get something that
would lessen the traction. This has
hen solved by an engineer in the
following manner:
Excavate trench under the
wheel tracks a foot deep and a foot
wide, by plowing out with ordinary
road plow and shoveling out re-
mainder of the earth to uniform
depth and width. Place field
rock' (any old rock you can find)
in the bottom of the trench to a
depth of five or six inches, and
lamp into place with an ordinary
iron or wooden tamper, so that
when the course is finished it will
have a depth of about five inches.
Place on this course of about five
inches Of crushed rock-creek bould-
ers or crushed gravel will do-of
sizes that will pass through a ring
one and one-half inches in diameter
but not larger than three inches and
tamp again to place. 1t has been
found that a wide tired wagon
heavily loaded will quickly and
sufficiently settle this rock in place,
and can be used instead of tamp-
er. When finished, this course
should be four inches thick. Place
on this a course of finer crushed
rock, say three inches, and tamp or
settle with the wagon, as before.
On this place layer of screenings,
dust and crushed rock not larger
than will pass thru a three-quarter
inch ring; wet thoroughly and then
roll with heavy roller. This last
course should be rounded up, 50
that when in place it will be flush
with the roadbed. The roller settles
the earth ana rock all at once.
When finished, you have the
earth road for the horses and the
macadam road for the wheels; the
barefoot beast trots contentedly
along the road and thaload shoves
hlm to the market. Try it on q
small scale someYhase~ and see how
the tn, very idea Some pieces Of 0!
road that yod have been cussed
about for 10 the1 many moons.

One of the Complaints About
the Lindsay Sanitarium.
Witness Says the Patients Dis
turbed the Neighb0rs.
SUIT FOR INJUNCTION
Effort Being Made to Suppress
the Cottages"
Ground Is That Insane People
Were Kept There.

'Seventy-one witnesses assem- bled in
district court this morning. The &C.
casion was the effort to enjoin DIR. w.

specialist on nerve diseases from "op-
Grating an asylum within prohibited
distance from dwelling houses
About two years ago DIR. Lindsay
established a sanitarium or private
hospital for the treatment of nervous
disease and drug habits. in the Christ
hospital cottages. Last fall, Luther
Bailey and other nearby residents
brought suit in the name of the state
to enjoin DR.. Lindsay from operating
the hospital, on the grounds that he
received patients who were insane
and noisy. Nearly all the household
ers in the immediate neighborhood of
the hospital have been subpoenaed to
testify in the case.
The principal witnesses heard to-
day were Mr.. and Mrs. Luther Bailey.
who live near the hospital. They teS-
titled that during a period of two
years they have been frequently an
noyed by the cries of patients at DR..
Lindsays. Mr.. Bailey testified that
one patient prayed about II minutes
at time, and intimated that the
prayer was too long. Mrs. Bailey tes-
titled having been wakened in the
night time by the cries of patients,
ana ~naVng witnessed the unSucceSS-
ful efforts of two patients to escape.
She also testified to having heard one
patient, man, swear and curse.
Owing to the great number of wit
nesses to be heard, the hearing will
probably last two or three days.
In discussing the INDUCTION case
against DIR. w. S. Lindsay today
Sheriff Will1erson remarked: eff he is
enjoined, it might be we'll to enjoir
the county from maintaining an asy-
| lum in the heart of the city. Durins
! the past few years, dozens of drus
| fiends have been treated, and a lot o.
| them cured there. We have three O.

In probate court today a majority of

they know or think about a Juvenile case.
The Smith family has brought the Haines
family into court on a charge of failing
to restrain and manage the Smith children
They contend that Roy Smith, aged u,
threw d stone and knocked out Delbert

the parents of the Smith boy refuse to
correct him and make him be good Both
sides were represented by counsel and an
array of witnesses. Witnesses who could
not crowd into the court room. held an
overflow meeting in the court house hail.
and took observations through the door,
1t developed that the Smiths and
Harnesses were not neighborly and didn't
think great deal of each other. Also
that the Smith boy tossed the rock as
aforesaid, and that the Haines boy stop
ped it with his eve. as aforesaid. Having
settled this detail to his satisfaction, the
court said that the Smith boy might con-
slider himself under the jurisdiction of the
court for a while, and that if that had
no salutary effect, trip to the reform
school, or something equally serious,
might be resorted to. Everybody, 'includ-
ing the witnesses, seemed to be satisfied.

BIG WHEAT CROP.
New York Expert Says Kansas Yield
Will Be Large.

Kansas City. Mo-. June 21.-Charles
Lacey Plumb of New York city. one of
the largest purchasers of -four and
cornmeal in the United States, isn't
a. all alarmed about the Kansas wheat
crop. He was in Kansas City a week
ago and ANNOUNCED, he would conduct
an investigation in Kansas without re-
gard to what the alarnist wheat ex-
perts said. He has returned to Kansas
City after a visit to the large wheat
producing sections of the state.
There is 70 foundation to this talk
about a shortage in the wheat crop in
Kansas Mr.. Plumb said. THAT state
will produce as much. if not more. wheat
than any year in it's history. In every
section I visited I found the farmers
harvesting big crops and not at all dis
turbed about the crop falling short of
what it had been in past years. There
is no shortage in the Kansas crop and
the wheat producing sections of the
northwest are rolling up big crops.
There is no good reason for the price
of wheat being so high and I believe
it will show a marked decline in a
short time"

they're COMING IN.
Fifteen Applications for Admission to
State Guaranty Association.

State Bank Commissioner Dolley to-
day received Is applications from state
banks to enter the state guaranty as
ISOLATION. This sWells the total number
of state banks that have signified their
intention of joining the state. assocla-
ton to about 800 out of a possible 800.
When asked today if he thought it
likely that any of the state banks would
join the insurance association now in
process of formation by the national
banks, the bank commissioner replied
that he was of the opin-
ion that a few if any of the state
banks would adopt the national plan.
He believed that the national banks
would work out their own plan in their
own way and that it would be salts
factory to them and their customers,
while the state banks would join the
state guaranty association and thus
work out their own salvation in their
own way.
Under the conditions of each plan
there will be an insurance fund of
from 10 to 100 million dollars behind
bank deposits in the form of guar
antee. Commissioner Dolley thought
that each class of banks had decided
to attend each to their own business
and plan of guaranty and avoid any
unnecessary friction.
