INSPECTOR HOLDS UP
FRUIT TREE SHIPMENT

to North Yakima but Holds no
State License.

Fruit Inspector Morrison held up a
shipment of over a thousand fruit
trees to North Yakima nursery

cultural law that provides that a nur-
sery in another state cannot do busi-
ness in Washington unless a license
is secured. An exception is made
and that is TINT the outside nursery
may pay one-tenth of the invoice
cost of the goods into the state treas
ury instead of paying the license
Neither of the requirements, the fruit
inspector says. had been complied
with.

AND NOW PASCO AGENT
Superintendent DeForce Thinks
the New Railroad Station Here
Will Be Ready for Use by
March Add Parking Strip.

w. f. Eisenhart of Pasco is to be
Northern Pacific agent at North Yak
ina in succession to John w. Hill
who retires to go into business in this
city. The vacancy at Pasco is to be
filled by the promotion of l.. F. Sains-
bury. now agent at Lind. This an
nouncement was made In North Yak
ina Monday by J. L. DeForce, super
intendent, who was here in his pri-
vate car and who will leave today for
Grandview to make an examination of
extension work there of the Sunny
side branch and of changes in the
railroad yard at Grandview.
The resignation of Mr.. Hill was
handed in to take effect January 1
but he has held on, as no successor
was named. 1t was understood that
great effort was being made to pro-
cure the return to this city of Agent
Meeks of Spokane, formerly here and
very popular with railroad offic,~'s
and with shippers and other patti
Of the road. These negotiations
kept up for some time but It was
found impossible to make the change
Is Experienced Railroader.
Mr.. Eisenhart Is aM experienced
railroad man who has been for a cou-
pie of years at Pasco and who before
that was a travelling auditor Of the
railroad and who has served It in
other capacities. He has a consider
able acquaintance here and therefore
Will not come as stranger to the
local position. Mr.. DeForce announced
that the new agent will report for
duty here some day this week.
While in North Yakima Monday
Mr.. DeForce made an inspection OF
the new station building and gave II
~ his opinion that It will be ready
for use not later than March 1. Some
furniture has been ordered but this
will be late in arriving and therefore
the building may be put to use with
out its proper equipment in that re-
gard There Is strong desire. how
ever, to finish up all the needed work
including sidewalk construction and
such necessities before the building is
used. There will thus be no interior
ence with the regular work.
Destruction of the old buildings will
begin as soon as the new station has
been occupied and the site of the pres
ent station and freight house will be
parked.
