County Hospital.

We find there are a number OF in
mates of the county hospital at the
present time who are unable TO walk,
but are in a physical condition so rs
to be removed TO the open air, aud
there are no facilities whatever for
giving these patients the benefit of
the sunlight and open air. except by
carrying the cots out bodily through
narrow halls. and where it is prac-
tieslly impossible to take them out.
There Is a great need of a few wheel
chairs. to be used by eonvaiescent
patients. or those patients bed rid
den from one cause or another. who
might be taken to the open air II
there were facilities for doing so. We
earnestly recommend that the board
of supervisors furnish to the hospital
such number OF invalid wheel
chairs as may meet this necessity.
Our examination otherwise proves
the conditions TO be absolutely sat
isfactory and we commend the pres
cnt management accordingly.

Garfield, Wash, is flooded. Silver
creek overlooked at noon today and
waters have spread through the BUSH

CITY ADOPTS
NEW SLOGAN

What Walla Walla> Wants is Water
This is the slogan, adopted yester-
day, which may soon appear upon all
stationery used by Garden City bust
ness firms and the Commercial club
and publicity department, as well. for
there has been a dearth of that COM
modify in these parts for 10, the past
As hours. Not that there has been a
scarcity of dampness-nothing like
that. But in the words of the Ancient
Mariner, or whoever it might have
been, Water, water everywhere. and
not drop to drink
As a most natural result of the con-
dition of the water supply during the
past two days, Chief William Metz of
the fire department announces with a
pardonable degree of pride that the
pressure in the guage at the central
station is the highest known since the
guage was installed. Surely. With
all faucets closed, the pressure was
bound to increase, and last night the
Indicator pointed point blank at the
LOG mark. The same condition has
prevailed today. ct might be added
that the meters on the fizz-pop tanks
are corresponding low)
Councilman c. H. Whiteman of the
street committee has designated Walla
Walla water as Blue Mountain Mix
ture," and present indications art that
the name will wear Well" From the
limpid, sparkling fluid, fresh from the
cool, mountain retreats, teeming with
refreshment and a flavor of its own.
the supply has, in a few short hours.
been converted into a gravy-like sub
stance-a cross between elam-chow-
der and noodle-soup, with Spanish
dressing thrown in for co,oring.
All authorities agree that at the
present time Walla Walla water will
not pass muster under the provisions
of the pure food law, and for that rea-
son people generally are carrying wa
ter from springs for tea and coffee
and domestic purposes.
Ergo, the slogan.

miles of railroad which the Northern
Pacific operates in Washington, and in
vites inquiries from interested par
ties
Already results have been received
from the large amount of publicity
given this valley by the Northern Pa
cific company, inquiries in large num-
bers having been received. S. B. CAL
derhead, local agent of the company,
is daily called upon to reply to inquir-
les regarding this favored section, and
the work undertaken a year ago by the
Commercial club is being ably as
sisted through the latest policy of the
Northern Pacific company.

Occasional Rain.

Weather Observer Grover this morn
inging issued a forecast for occasional
rains tonight and tomorrow, and it is
probable the precipitation in the
mountains, together with the warm
eral days The rainfall yesterday
amounted to 14100ths of an inch,
o'clock last night The lowest point
reached by the mercury last night was
cooler in the mountain, with a very
slight snowfall.

possibly go out if the waters rise
much more. At Seventh street the
water is slowly backing up into the
street and in some places the fiat is
flooded to depth of several feet. Con-
ditions down the valley towards Mil
ton are not so bad as above the city.
At fire station No. 2 the water is
sweeping over the lawns of several
properties.
In WATERFOWL conditions are report
ed as especially dangerous and re-
port was received at this office late
last night that one barn had been lift
ed from it's foundations and overturn-
ed This could not be. verified, how

Where the Yellow Eawk branches
from Mill creek is ,ier projecting
out into the stream int -nded to divert
40 per cent of the iter from Mill
creek into the other stream. Those
who witnessed the ins tallation of this
work say it is unlikely that this will
be washed out, but should it give way
property would suffer greatly.
Reports from all along the foothills
are that bridges have been washed
away, and there is no semblance of
what were once roads. Fields are
flooded
The mountains seem to be a veri-
table spring, ever pouring forth wa
ter from crag and crevice. to rush
down upon the lowlands spreading
disaster and ruin.
/ WalIa WaIla River Steady.
Reports from along the Walla Wal
la river at late hour last night were
that all immediate danger of that
river flooding it's banks, was over, at
least for the time being. The water
was running bank full until late
hour last evening when it showed
signs receding.

The wagon bridge over Garrison
creek on Fourth street was carried
away this morning about 5 o'clock by
the rushing current, although Street
Commissioner H. H. Champion had
men working throughout the night in
an attempt to save it. The north APP
proach was undermined, allowing the
structure 70 sink into the channel The
trestle Of the Walla Walla Valley Trac-
ton company is still intact, but a
guard is maintained to prevent drift
from tearing it away. Cars are in
operation on the Prospect Heights line
today.
At Fifth street bridge Garrison creek
leaves its banks on the south side,
breaking over into Chase avenue, re-
sulting in floating walks and cross
walks. The water, several feet in width
and cutting out the street in many
places, follows the thoroughfare 20
r Of 70
had been diverted and follows the as
ISOLATION fence towards the west to
near the o. r. & n. tracks, where it
again flows into the channel. At noon
today the volume of water thus f1ow-
ing down Chase avenue was as large
as what flows i'm Garrison creek upon
ordinary occasions. Immediately west
of Chase avenue bridge the waters OF
Garrison creek flow through several
front yards, in one place up to front
door, and in the rear Of this home the
barn stands in a small lake.
Mill creek also has left its banks on
North Seventh street, where it has
flooded several lawns and surrounded
the homes. Water is flowing down
Cherry street, below Seventh, and con-
siderable damage will result from the
cutting away of the street bed. When
G. D. Lenfesty, who lives on North Sew
enth street, aWoke this morning, he
found his home completely surrounded
cessary to call a hack in order to get to
his business The stream at this point
had broken into an old-time channel
and it is feared great damage will re-
suit in case the water continues to rise.
People in the lower portion Of the
city are now talking bulkheading the
creek from Sixth street to the westerly
limits of the city, as they say they
will make no further improvements to
their residence property if left at the
mercy of Mill creek, which is allowed
full sway below Sixth street bridge

through the city have left their banks
