CASHMERE BAPTISTS ORGANIZE
Church Organization Effected with
% Resident Members.

The Baptists of Cashmere have
| been looking around and counting
noses for some time, with the re,
suit that they believed their num-
bers warranted organization.
On short notice, so that all were
not reached meeting was held last
Sunday afternoon at the home. of
Mr.. and Mrs. Kirby, to considac1Rh he
question. About twenty-five Bap-
lists were present, and a vote was
taken deciding to organize. Rev. Tan
ner acted as chairman.
Mrs. Kirby was chosen church
clerk. The, meeting adjourned to
meet again at the same place Fri
day evening to perfect the organiza-
ton, elect other officers and prepare
to begin services.
Rev and Mrs Robertson of Peshas-
tin were out of town members pres
emf
Besides those present, there are 20
or more Baptists in the valley, many
of whom have expressed their desire
to join with a Baptist church here.
Our flag is flying at half-mast in
honor of Gov. CosgrOve.
Eddie Conley of Macon City, Iowa,
is visiting at the home of his aunt.
Several newcomers are here to be-
gin work on their new possessions.
M. and Mrs Hansen are here
ready to occupy the Tigner place
west of town, while Mr.. Tigner moves
to his new place east of town.
A new family by the name of Mil
Ter have also recently moved to a
place west of town near Mr.. French's.
Frank Presnell and wife have re-
turned to their orchard home two
miles southwest of town after an alb
sence of nearly a year in Seattle.
Rev Robinson, who was pastor of
the NJ E. church here last year, was
seen on our streets yesterday.

existence along the line-making q
town or city every 10 miles from
Dakota to the coast. These cities
and towns are not paper towns" but
contain busy people who have driven
their stakes for permanency to grow
up with the country. That their
faith is warranted is shown by the
fact that thousands of settlers have
already located along The lines in
this state, where lands were here
tofore of little value owing to lack
of transportation and communica-
tion-now in demand at good prices.
This applies only to the main line
and the conditions when branches
and feeders are constructed to bring
more business to the road will be
still more remarkable. By the time
the road is in readiness for actual
traffic there will be a large amount
of business ready sor it, originating
on the line.
The benefit to Tacoma of the OPEN
ing of this new territory and it's
speedy settlement and development
can hardly be over estimated. 1t is
safe to predict that within the year
there will be prosperous population
all along the line of this road in
Washington, tributary to Tacoma, of
many thousands of families, giving
larger territory for our manufacture
ers and jobbers, where they will have
the advantages of direct communi-
cation and cheap rates.
