In an Effort to Ascertain What Is

Politicians of this section of Yak

the proposal of politicians of the
country below the gap to unite as
against North Yakima candidates for
county officers. They are asking
what is meant and whether the plan
is not so good a one that it will carry
if little energy is put behind it..
They fear the move and do not

cidentally it may be said that since
the announcement was first made of
the probability of Il lower valley

gumshoe work on the part of the
politicians, especially Of the world

Il dead mouse in it.
She told Mrs. Sanford, and took
the mouse to show her. 1t SO hap

which ran up her arm one night when
she was sitting by the fire reading
and crawled down the neck of her
dress. Ever since then the sight Of
Il mouse has always brought on a
feeling of terror.
Mrs. Sanford thought the mouse,
which the girl brought to her. was
alive. She at once began to scream
with fright. and continued to do so
until she was assured that it was
dead.

Depth of Drain. :.
The proper depth at which drains
should be placed varies to some ex-
tent. but in no case should they ever
be higher than six feet beneath the
surface. OF course main drain bitches,
or spillways for the smaller drains,
should be constructed ut greater
depth than the laterals.

at the present time is placed at about

Should Seek Relief.
"When alkali once gets started to-
ward the surface of the land it is dif-
ficult to obstruct its progress without
immediate relief in the way of an up
to-date and complete drainage system.
1t seems to me that one of the best
things the farmers in the Mckee could
do would be to organize 4 drainage
district and by the cooperation of
the county commissioners in the mat
ter, seek to obtain Immediate relief
from their predicament by complete
drainage system. OF course it would
cost quite 4 bit to install the kind OF
system they need. but when this IS
once done their worries from alkali
would be over. l believe the majority
of the farmers in the Mckee would BE-
more than willing to enter into almost
any plan which would afford them
ultimate relief. The acreage of alkali
land in the Mckee valley at the pres
ent time is not very large but when
alkali once starts it quickly takes the
acreage up. Considering the matter
from this point of view, it seems thai
now is just the right time to begin
work on it and the sooner the farm
ers in that valley band themselves to-
gether for this work, the quicker they
will receive relief"

gentleman now seeking reelection at
the hands of the people Mr.. Marshall
is a fluent speaker and his remarks
were most favorably received by the
large crowd present.
Tom Stout, candidate for the state
senate, was the next speaker, and
opened his address with few figures
showing the phenomenal development
Of Stanford and vicinity during the
last two years and painted glowing
picture OF the good things which the
future holds in store for this, one of
the most progressive, fertile sections
Of the great Inland Empire
Turning to political matters, the
speaker stated that political ties set
lighter on the voters Of the United
States today than at any other time
during the past one hundred years
People are not so much concerned
with what party man belongs to as
to what principle he advocates. This
has been the case in Iowa, Kansas,
California, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Washington and Maine, and that the
same sentiment will rule in Montana
is one Of the sure and certain things
of the present campaign.
Taking up the case of Senator
Carter, Mr.. Stout showed, BY refer
ence to congressional records that
"Oily Tom" has ever stood with the
trusts and great corporations, as
against the interests of the common
people. AS an example, numerous
votes on the recent tariff law were
cited On eighty-fve roll calls, Car
ter voted with Aldrich always for the
higher duty and against the lower.
Turning to the state republican plat
form, which declares for such reforms
as direct election of United States
senators by the people, the Oregon
primary law and the income tax, it
was shown that Senator Carter has
ever opposed these reforms with voice
and votes, the specific instances being
cited from the record of congress.

urged that the primary duty of tho
citizen was to home, family and coun-
try, and that obligation to political
party was subordinate thereto. He
discussed the attitude Of the president
Of the United States towards the leg
islation of congress during his ad-
mnistration, asserting that it was his
desire and intention to deal with the
president and his public record with
entire fairness and respect He took
the ground that the president is not
our master but Our servant, and that
as such, his public acts were the
legitimate subject Of respectful crit

the president towards the Payne-Ald-

the various planks in the platform,
Mr. Hartman first dealt with the
plank favoring an amendment to the
constitution providing for the election
Of United States senator's by direct
vote Of the people, and that until such
a reform could be secured have state
legislation passed on what is known
as the Oregon plan He urged the
necessity of this reform and called at
