TENDER of President Taft and the
corps of newspaper men and photo
praphers who will accompany him if
only the business people of North
Yakima will embrace it," said a local
business man Monday.
MY plan, he said, is nothing more
nor less than a decoration of every
window of the business section of the
city with products of the farm and
orchard. There is to be no state fair
this year but its place can in part be
taken if the Fifty Thousand club, the
Comm ercial club, or some other or
ganization will get to work immedi-
ately and offer substantial prizes for
The best fruit window, the best vege-
table window. the best general exhibit
and other prizes of a similar charac-
ter.
Have Done Well i'm Past.
eve have seen before what can be
done by local stores in the way of
window decoration. Some of the best
displays we have ever had have been
volunteer window exhibits called forth
by a little civic pride. Those exhibits
have been comm ented on to a great
extent by outside visitors and have
gone a long way toward impressing
upon people, who were not acquainted
with the conditions or the merit of
this country.
1--WE have got to show the president
something? What better than to show
him what we have got? By making
prizes for the display every individual
store keeper will set is decorators to
thinking and his friends to searching
and the very best will be brought in
and exhibited. Which ever way the
president turns he will be impressed
with the results of irrigation.
Will Catch Newspaper Men.
mot only the president but the
newspaper men who are to be with
him will be entertained and that lat
ter body is an important one. The
trip of President Taft will be watched
with great interest by people in the
east. The illustrated journals will
picture his route and the features of
it and the daily journals will tell in
print of the things done to entertain
him and of the important matters en-
countered en- route. If we give them
something to talk about they will do
the talking. They will have to justify
their presence here. Advertising is
what this city and county have been
looking for. There is no cheaper way
of procuring the best than by award
ing couple of hundred dollars worth
of prizes along lines l have suggested

UNDERCURRENT OF RIVER
Supt. George Arrowsmith's Experience
Shows Such to be Case-Short Drain
Will intercept Flow.

An underground current having its
source in the Naches river, and trans
versing the city diagonally through
the heart of the business district is the
latest theory offered for the presence
of seepage water which has caused an
noyance to property holders the past
spring and summer. The present of
the underground current was discov-
cred by Supt. Geo. Arrowsmith and
employees of the Northwest Water &
Light Co, who in excavating for poles
and mains noticed that at regular in
tervals throughout the city water ex-
listed and in other places none was
present, The water so far as traced,
according to Supt. Arrowsmith, has its
fountain head in the Naches river be-
low Naches Gap where the course of
the river follows the bend of the Sc
lah hill, whereas the course of the
river at one time traversed the pres
ent townste along the line of the
Schana ditch.

MAKE DIRT FLY"
IN DIGGING PANAMA CANAL

Washington. Jan. 19-Americans
are truly making the dirt fly" In the
work of digging the Panama canal.
During 1905, more than three-fourths
of the total amount of material taken
cut since our government took hold of
the work, was removed. The monthly
average OF excavation during the last
year was substantially the same dur
Ing the rainy season as during the
dry season, showing that the heavy
rains no longer are a serious obstacle.
Another feature was the reduction Of
the average cost per cubic yard for
excavation of 81 cents to 4S cents, or
about Is per cent.
Since this government took up the
work from May A 1904, to the close
of 1908. 59.773,179 cubic yards have
been eXcavated Of which 37,016,693
cubic yards were taken out during
1908. By the French companies, ST.
$4,000 cubic yards we're excayated.
From the appropriations for canal
construction the expenditures from
May 4, 1904, to Oct. /, 1908 were $685.
275 900 Of this amount $51 $4,000
was expended by the department OF
