DEMOCRAT TO SUCCEED HALE
Pine Tree State Will Have First DEM
ocretic Senator Since 1863-Dems.
VIII Control Next State
Legislature.

Portland Me-, Sept. 13.-The DEM
ocrats of Maiuo had difficulty today in
contemplating the magnitude OF their
victory yesterday. Additional revised
returns give Plalsted DemocraD a
plurality estimated at $500. The re-
viscd returns show the election OF
Asher C. Kinds (Republican) In the
First district by 200; Daniel ]. McGil-

CDcmocraD In the Third by 2,200; and
Frank T.. Gueonsec (Republican in
the Fourth by 300.
While the election of Plaisted and
two democratic congressman seemed a
great feat, interest today centered in
the makeup of the legislature. The
SS. The counties still to hear from,
the Democrats claim. will give them
more than enough additional to con-
troll The Democratic legislature will
choose n successor to Senator Eugene
Hale and give Maine her first demo-
cratic senator since 1863. and New
England the first since the election OF
VIM. ID. Eaton i'm Connecticut In the
late '70s.
The next legislature will have full
charge of re-distrlcting of the state.

people a chance for local option by re-
submitting the prohibitory liquor law.
Complete returns on the vote for
state senators shows the Democrats
secured twenty-one out of the thirty
one seats. The last state senate was
made up of twenty three Republicans
and eight Democrats.

day extends even TO the minor state
offices. ToIay's figures show the DEM
ocrats elected 13 of 16 high sheriffs in
shcrins were reelected and in eight
other counties, Democrats gained the
office.
Chairman Mack is Optimistic.
Buffalo. n ", Sept 13.-Chairman
Mack Of the Democratic national com
mittee, commenting on the Maine cleo
tion said today:
Yesterdays election was fought out
on the great national questions of the
day, and it Is clear the people are to
triumph over the evils Of the nation
al government, which democracy has
been lighting for years. These evils
may be summarized as the domination
of national policies by special privilege
interests, the welfare Of the few at
the expense Of the many.
"Thc tide has turned In Maine and
will not stop until II has reached Call
fornia. In the last national election
the Republican party promised the
people relief from oppressive condi-
tions occasioned by the Dingley tariff.
Instead OF reduction they gave the
people an increase and all the speeches
Of the president and vice president of
the entire throng Of federal orators
cannot undo that wrong. The vigorous
progressive citizenship Of America has
awakened"

So successful has the Northern
Pacific Irrigation Co. been in the
development of the 10000 acres
now under it's main ditch, water
has been taken to 1900 acres on a
higher level lying to the south and
west of the town by means of a
thoroughly modern pumping plant.
This new district has an elevation
of from $50 to 200 feet above the
Columbia, and is especially adapted
to fruit growing. An additional 1000
acres will be brought under ditch
the coming season. and eventually
"The Highlands will approximate a
total of $500 acres. The entire
Highlands district reaches from one

Kennewick, and being on higher

APPLE PRODUCTION
PROFITABLE.

Apple production is a very de-
lightful occupation, as 1t demands
little difficult and no disagreeable
work, while the perpetual beauty
of an orchard is an unceasing pleas
ure. Added to these. the splendid
remuneration makes it increasingly
attractive. The fruit industry has
added very materially to the pros
perity of the state of Washington
and the time Is coming when it will
Overshadow every industry in the
commonwealth.
Growing commercial varieties of
apples offers larger inducements
and greater opportunity for ordi-
nary effort than any other
line of horticultural en-
deavor. Considering the bene-
fits and comforts to be derived
from living under almost perfect
climatic conditions, life becomes a
source of happiness and pleasure
such as all ambitious men yearn
and strive for. Only few years
are required to bring the raw sage
brush land to commercial orchard.
1 he UlOHttIS at NeIutWlCk, w T.
natchee and North Yakima have
demonstrated by practical expert
ence what varieties of fruits thrive
best and pay most profitably. The
experimental stage is now thing
of the past.
At North Yakima apple growers
have refused $4,000 an acre for
land that they purchased several
years ago in it's raw state for $3.50
an acre. Good bearing orchards are
held at $4,000 TO $4,000 an acre at
Kennewicli and Wenatchee. These
prices may look unreasonable, but
when the productiveness of the
soil and the revenue from an acre
of true fruit land are taken into
consideration, the price is soon for
gotten. 1t usually takes a new ar
rival from the east sometime to get
his breath and measure his bear
ings when he asks the price of high
class fruit land. The real truth is,
the highest prices paid are by the

TO THE CITY COUNCIL

we would ike 10 call
your attention to an ar
.ticle on "Free Dental
Clinics" that appeared
in one of last Sundays
papers. The article is a
scientific and complete
exposition of the needs
and uses of a dental
clinic in this city, and
we are heartily in favor
of the enactment Of the
same. However, there
is one part of this arti-
Gle to which we must
and will take exception
to, and that is the way
in which the so-called
Spokane County Society
of Ethical Dentists, pre-
sumo to dictate the re-
quirements of the oper-
ators at the clinic. We
maintain that, Simply
because we have not
subscribed to a certain
fixed and foolish code
that we are lacking in a
sense of civic loyalty.
We would call your at
tention to the Standard
dictionary's definition
of the word "ethics"-
"Any body of principles
or rules concerning
moral obligation, wheth-
err true or false, that is
intended to regulate
practice in any sphere of
activity; as medical or
dental ethics"
Now we maintain that
their standard is false
and furthermore as there
are over so dentists in
this city and only 81 sign
themselves as "The Spo-
kane County Ethical
Dentists Society" that
the said society is in the
minority and that the
rest of the dentists
should be taken into con
sideration. Now our
proposition is-Get the
names and addresses of
all the dentists in the
city and assign them in
alphabetical order for
the clinics. This could
easily be done by some
employee in the health
department every morn
ing. In this way this
grand movement will be
taken out of the hands of
any cliQues or factions.

Of 5000 people, while the modern
little city of Kennewick boasts of
1000 inhabitants. The future per-
manency of the district is assured
by a perpetual water right agree
ment entered into by the United
States reclamation service and the
Northern Pacific Irrigation Co. The
agreement guarantees flow of 175
cubic feet per second for all time
to come. Already 10000 acres have
been brought under ditch, and plans
are now maturing to water an addi-
tional $500 acres.
Having an elevation above sea
level of $50 feet, the Kennewick
district enjoys warm, sunny eli
mate and very early spring and
produces fruits, Strawberries and
other small garden truck in advance
of other sections of the northwest.
The soil, volcanic ash, has been
proven rich in the chemical con-
stituents required for the produc-
ton of alfalfa, fruits and vege-
tables.
The city of Kennewick has a
strategical location. Lying at the
confluence of the Columbia, Snake
and Yakima rivers, it not only en-
joys shipping facilities by water
north, east and west. but also the
Northern Pacific railway to Puget
Sound and the east; the Spokane,
Portland & Seattle railway to Port
land and Spokane, where it con-
meets with the Great Northern; the
North Coast railway (now build
ing), and the Kennewick Northern
(projected). With such varied
transportation facilities, added to
perfect climate and soil, it is agreed
by the far-seeing men of today that
Kenewick is destined to become the
metropolis of irrigated Washington.
Recognizing this fact, the leg.sla-
ture has located the permanent
office of the state commissioner of
horticulture at Kennewick.

Only comparatively small area
Of this fertile soil is under cultiva-
ton at the present time, but it is
estimated by prominent engineers

government spending many millions
to reclaim these arid lands. but pri.
vate individuals and corporations
are extensively engaged in irriga-
ton projects throughout the entire

wonders of the world. People will

to become the great fruit basket of

the most fertile and productive gar

through the magic touch of irriga-

to the big ditch built by the North

Realizing the value and produc-
