|. D. JANECK
DRAWS PRIZE
N IDAHO LAND LOTTERY
PrOcures 100 Acres in Dietrich Tract
and Only Money to be Paid Is
the Water Assessment.

L. o. Janeck of this city drew a 100
acre prize in the Dietrich tract in the
Snake River valley of Idaho at the
drawing of Tuesday and comes into
possession of land worth from 800 to
$1,000 an acre according to his success
in making a selection after the So
people who drew ahead of him have
their choice. There were some 5000
applicants for land, the tracts being
from 40 to $50 acres, and the terri
tory is between Richfield and Sho-
shone. Mr.. Janeck filed his applica-
ton for 100 acre tract and his
drawing, as stated, was within the
first hundred. The only obligation he
incurs is that for water, otherwise
the land is free to him. He has al
ready forwarded his check to cover
the water, which is $521.50 and Fritz
Miller and an engineer who are on the
ground will locate him.
A number of other Yakima county
people made drawings but they were
away down on the list and while they
will procure excellent land will not
have as early a selection as would
otherwise be the case. There are some
$4,000 acres in the tract and the pay
ments eXacted for water will bring
in over a million dollars to the state
of Idaho.

BIG FORCE
IS At WORK
ON THE OLD CITY DRAIN
Authorities Rushing Work to Relieve
Floods I'm Easements and Cellars
Sewers Inspected.

The sewers and drains of North
spection. beginning today and contin-
uing the remainder of the week. con-
Quoted by City Engineer Doolittle and
Building Inspector Wise. The trouble
caused by flooding the easements and
cellars and the new sewer laterals I'M
der construction has caused the pres
ent move.
1t is the prevailing opinion that all
of the trouble is caused by the poor
condition of the city drain on the
west side near the Shame ditch.
Whether this drain is caved in for
any great distance or whether it is in
bad condition in more than one place
is tc be determined. The councilmo ii
and engineering experts are not sure
whether it can be easily repaired, but
its service is so important that it has
seemed necessary 70 undertake what
eve: measures are necessary to put it
in c. ndition. A large force of work.
men are busy on this job today.
To make sure that the blocking Of
the old trunk sewer traversing the
section of the business district is
partly responsible for the water in the
Easements, the city engineer will con-
duct thorough examination of the
mains and the laterals. Mayor Arm
bruster stated to the Herald last
evening that the situation would be
relieved just as fast as workmen
could handle it.

CHERRY HARVEST
AN EXCELLENT ONE
j. o. Shadbolt Takes Il Membership in
Horticultural Union AMI Arranges
to Have Crop Handled.

Cherries are being shipped out of
North Yakima in considerable quanti-
ties by the Horticultural Union. Some
were sent forward Saturday and some
again on Monday. The number is
increasing daily and the crop will be
ION" in another day or two. The
cherries are an excellent crop this
year. The trees appear to be bearing
heavily.
]. O. Shadbolt of Parker, who is a
heavy cherry grower, came into North
Yakima Tuesday, took a membership
in the Horticultural Union, arranged
for the handling of his cherry crop
and will have representatives from
the union on his ranch for the next
week or so harvesting the crop. Mr..
Piggott, another rancher of the same
section also lined up with the union
and arranged for the harvesting of his
cherries.
Some beautiful strawberries grown
in the North Yakima district are now
being handled by the union. Mr.. Irish,
Superintendent has made a selection
of several splendid crates which will
be forwarded today to Seattle to r. j.
Haasze at the Yakima county build
ing to be on hand there for Yakima
county day at the fair.

WAS LOST BUT
FOUND AGAIN
|. H, llaBARGtR HAS EXPERIENCE
While Fishing at Lake Kaches Lost
the Trail and Searching Party
Located Him Far from Camp.

Lost in the Cascades" is the title
of book consisting of experiences on
fishing expeditions that l.. II. Lin
barger of the Yakima Transfer COM
pany will write when he retires from
the transfet business and devotes
himself to literary pursuits. And Mr.
Linharger has the real basis for a
cracking good book too.
1t all happened at Lake Kaches last
Sunday. Mr.. Linbarger In company
with Frank Bryant, Frank Baker
and p. a. Williams left North Yakima
Saturday afternoon and spent Satur-
day night with Captain Gale at the
kaches lodge. Early Sunday morning
the party started out up the creeks
casting for trout. The members be-
came separated and all but Mr.. Lin
barger returned to the lodge in the
evening.
I'll was feared that something might
have happened to him SO n searching
posse was INN ediately organized and
all set out in parties of two for the
places where it was thought he might
have been during the day. The search
ing party was augum ented by Duncan
Dunn and Pat Lynch and Jack Mich
OILS of this city who had spent the day
fishing on the lake. For four hours
the searchers secured the woods and
about an hour after dark Frank Bry-
ant discovered. Mr.. Linbarger seated
by fire which he had kindled to
warm himself during the night
1t appears that in making his way
up the Gale creek, Mr.. Lnbarger be-
came confused and could not find
the trail back to camp. He climbed
hills in his efforts to retracc his steps
and says that the last one he reached
was so steep that his slippery shoes
would not permit of his climbing that
so he concluded to wait until morning
He was over four miles from the
lodge when found and he confesses
that he has experienced fewer hap
pier moments in his life than when,
he heard the shot of Bryants rifle
which told of the approach of friends

higher duties than does the Payne
bill as passed by the house.
One of the interesting features was
a lecture on the wooden industry. by
Carter, who brought forth large box
filled with samples of the various
grades of wool. To the senators who
gathered about him Carter explained
each step in the manufacture of
wooden goods from raising the sheep
to making the garment. He familiar
lied the members of the senate with
the uses of shoddy, waste soils tops
and various grade of the wool. Dol
liver proposed an amendment that
would assess the duties on woolens on
an advalorem basis, according to the
shrinkage of wool. Much amusement
was afforded when Dolliver and War
rem became involved in colloquy in
which they stood within one foot of
one another and each endeavored to
convince the other of the soundness
of his opinion regarding the advisa-
bility of assessing a wooden duty on
the value of the wool in the cloth.

new POSSIBILITIES
ARE SHOWN BY WELL
Ranchers May Combine the Advan-
taGes of Irrigation and Dry Land
Farming at Small Cost.

The Rose Land company has open
ed up new possibilities in ranching by
the discovery of water at no great
depth on land some 20 miles from
North Yakima but at a higher altitude
than artesian water has yet been
struck in the Yakima country. This
discovery makes it feasible to combine
the advantages of irrigation and dry
farming. At a depth of 800 feet the
drill entered the sand stone strata
which carries the water already
reached by the wells at a lower alti-
tude. The water rose in the hole
so that it now stands at about 100
feet from the surface or 200 feet deep
in the well. By the use of a pump
water can be raised for the irrigation,
say of 20 acres. 1t has long been
demonstrated that it takes but little
the best work had been done where
the irrigation is lightest.
Advantages Are Double.
A quarter section can thus be used
both for irrigated and dry farming
and the rancher can combine the ad-
vantages of both at an initial outlay
less than would be the case for a
small irrigated tract. In other words
a rancher can grow fruit alfalfa,
vegetables etc, on a small acreage
under water and wheat or other grain
crops on a large acreage of dry land.
This is really the thing which the
sinking of the well has demonstrated.
AS stated it is the highest altitude
at which water has yet been struck
and the depth of the water bearing
strata is less than on the lower levels.

GOOD HUMOR

Good Natured Argument on Adoption

WASHINGTON, June S.-Much
good humor and many pleasantries
were injected into the debate on the
wooden schedule by the senate today
Dolliver, the central figure, offered
several amendments and announced
his intention of presenting others, ap-
pealing to the republicans to vote with
him because he said the amendments
would justify the attitude of the re-
publican party in advocating a pro-
tective tariff. Smoot, assisted by
Warren, who is considered expert on
the wooden industry, defended the
finance committees recommendations
in regard to the wooden schedule. The
various amendments proposed to the
house bill by the finance committee
are intended to restore the Dingley
provision of the wooden schedule,

HAPPY TO Be
HOME AGAIN
IN PROGRESSIVE NORTH YAKIMA
Captain Jenkins Thinks That the
West Is UNNECESSARILY u Better
Country Than the East.

Captain Jenkins of the Salvation
Army of North Yakima has returned
home from New York and he is glad
to be back. 1.-THE Vest said Captain
Jenkins " is as far ahead of the East
in my opinion as I found the East to
be ahead of the old country when I
made my frs. visit to England after
having been in the Atlantic coast sec
ton of this country"
Captain Jenkins had pleasant
trip. He found his aged mother in
excellent health. the congress of Of
fcers of the army at New York was
highly instructive, as was also the
congress at Chicago. He renewed old
friendships and made new ones, STOP
ped in many cities and some towns
and studied the people and their de-
velopment and he is glad to be back
at his home here.
No Id. OF Leaving.
ct was asked by many of my
friends he said, "how long I intended
to remain here. replied that
have no intention of leaving"
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, city of 49,
900 people isn't in North Yakima's
class according to Captain Jenkins.
"Of course tn have more stores" he
said. "They need them to supply their
greater population. But as a city it
does not compare with this. I told
them to come west and see how we
build a city here. I failed to see in
that city an office building which in
my opinion compared at all favorabIy
with the Miller building here. Their
stores were not nearly so good as
these here. They have really but one
large store, of the department char
acter, and even that was not as large
and we'll equipped as our stores are.
In other respects l failed to find that
Poughkeepsie is up to North Yakima.
Is Booster For Yakima.
my friends with whom I travelled
declared to me that they were of the
the Commercial club here as a boo
ster. told them I had not but that
7 could not help procIaiming the ex-
cellencies of this country, more par
ticularlv as it was the Kindness of the
people here which had enabled me to
travel and learn of its superiority by
comparison.
There was no other field officer of
tho army from the Pacific coast pre-
sent at the congress- though some
staff officers were so the North Yaki-
ma man enjoyed distinction in that
respect and became n representative
figure.
Miss Booth, who was present at the
Chicago congress and who was the
presiding genius at the New York
gathering greatly impressed Captain
jenkins with her intellect, her imag-
nation. her power as an orator and
the convincing manner in which she
presents a truth. He had heard her
many times previously but never be
fore had he so fully recognized her
strength. He thinks her the most in
tellectual woman of whom he has
knowledge.

The state canvass, which had really
been in progress for weeks, was now Off
cially begun, the state committee having
fixed the time and place for holding the
state convention. They met at Burton
the fifth of May, with every one OF the
fourteen members-one representing each
county-present. Without contention,
they fixed upon Wednesday, the twenty
fifth day OF the following June, as the
convention date, and the city OF Burton
as the location. The committee also
agreed on the temporary organization,
the chairman OF the committee on resolu-
tions-the platform maker-and named
subcommittee to secure railroad and ho-
tel rates, prepare the convention call and
attend to the other preliminaries. In
formally, the state committee canvassed
itself as to the goyernorship and discov-
cred clear majority for Prentiss Gran
ger. Eight members were outspoken for
the Lotus man, four non-committal,
while only two expressed a preference for
Rollin Spencer. This result was duly
hailed throughout the state as fairly
showing the trend, and presaging the
easy triumph of the ex-railroad president.
Things fairly buzzed at Granger head
quarters now. Additional helpers had
been secured from different parts of the
state-experts in their line. Armstrong
came 70 conduct the literary bureau;
Griffin to manage the speakers and raj
lies; while Whittier, Mccain, Hammond
and half a dozen other professionals
fitted out to any part OF the field de-
handing special attention. Over all sat
"Phi'' Annis. with firm grip on the sit
uation and the checkbook, which had
now hattened considerably and looked
smutty and ink-daubed. The stub end
bulged, but told no tales--onIy certain
hieroglyphics comprehended by "Phi''
himself, appearing thereon.
The quarters had not improved in
