pending an appeal on conviction Of
eXtortiOn, has been restored to mem

paid a considerable arrcarage of dues.
With five other members suspended
for delinquency in dues the eX-chiet
executive made application last Thurs
day to be rcinstated. After being re-
moved from office the eN-mayor neg
lected to pay his dues. An arbitrary
law of the union causes suspension
for this delinquency.
There was some talk Of eXpelling

up. but on investigation 1t was learned
that a failure to pay dues had placed
Schmitz beyond further action by the

EVIDENCE is HEARD
IN CONTEST OVER LAND
Demand for Preference Right Is Made
on Land in the Prosscp
District

There was held in the United States
land office here Tuesday before Reg
lister Harry Y. Saint a hearing to de-
termine priority of settlement on lands
in the Prosser section and thrown
open to entry on November Goth last.
The action was that of johanna KNAPP
land against the state of Washington
and Hugh C. Lyon. Knaplund made
the first fling but Lyon alleged prior
settlement to Knaplunds filing and
asked for a preference right. The
state of Washington had also filed a
list covering a portion of the land in
question. Evidence was taken Tues
day to determine the rights of the
parties and decision was deferred.
John A. Homer of Olympia was in
North Yakima representing the state.
Floyd A. Hatfield represented the
Lyon interests and Lynch e. Grady ap-
peared for Knaplund.

THIRD STEAM ROLLER
FOR COUNTY HIGHWAYS
New Roller VIII Replace Ono of Gaso-
line Type Which Has Proved
Unsatisfactory.

The county commissioners while in
session Tuesday signed contract for
another 20,000-pound steam roller of
the Buffalo-Pitts type for use on the
county roads this season. This makes
three steam rollers now owned by the
county and the new purchase is to take
the place of a gasoline roller pur-
chased about two years ago which has
perSistently refused to do honest work
so far this season. 1t is now reposing
at the Yakima Iron Works for repairs
and the commissioners, believing that
its performance this year would be
repetition of last, decided to replace il
with one similar to those which have
been doing good service here for
number of years. The commissioner
are planning extensive road building
this season and the new acquisition
Will be in demand as soon as 1t ar
rives.

all right and viii stop here as long
as Uncle Samuel says so. Train No. ,
will do likewise 1t was the desire of
the Northern Pacific railroad to take
water at. Toppenish, throw off mail
bags here while hustling through this
city at two-thirds speed and rush on
westward without waiting for North
Yakima patronage. 1t is understood
that the railroad was even willing 70
stop for water at the litt's .Jnk in the
canyon rather than stop here Ana
the railroad was also willing to haul,
mail which was supposed to go on No
l to Ellensburg on the local proceed
ing it so as not to stop at North Yak
ina. Mail for the east was to be
hauled to Toppensh and reloaded
there. Business men may easily figure
out what that meant. 1t reduced their
mailing time and as a mater of fact
when they thought mails bage were
receiving letters here those bags wer"
closed and on their way or east on a
slow local waiting to be overhauled by
a fast train.
Uncle Sam saw things differently.
North Yakima, receiving dozen OF
twenty mail sacks on fast train from
the east, was no place in which t,
dump sacks like they would be
North Yakima Tuesday and No. 2 also
no place to pass up. Mail had to be
stopped for and picked up properly.
That is the reason No. 1 stopped in
North Yakima Tuesday nd No 2 also
and that is the reason they will stop
until something else happens. The
mail must be carried on the fastest
trains and so on Tuesday the doors
were all wide open on the cars and the
trains slowed down to respectable
halt.

about methods of teaching piano. 1t

that one certain method possesses ali
the advantages-th exclusive good
All methods are but stepping stones
stones with one single aim-to produce
beautiful and artistic pieno playing,
but it is true that some me6hyds a.'e
more successful in attaining tnis de
sired result than others. The Lesc T.
itizski method has made more famous
artists than any other in the wo. Id.
For example, Paderewski, Essipoff,
Fannie Bloomfield Zeissler Mark
Hamburg, Ossip Gabrilobritch are
some of its famous exponents. But
the ambitious piano student wishing
to seek this great teacher would have
little chance of entering his class.
LeschitizsH is now an old man of Sc
and all work of explaining his method
is left to assistants. But Rafael JOS

York the great medicine man of the

praised all over the musical world.

for months trying to get admission to
his classes-and eager to pay the $40
per month in advance which he receiv-
ed for four lessons. Having been
with Mr. Joseffy the last six months,

methods and he was kind enough to
say he would be honored to have me
