ONE of the most important Things
that has occurred this week IS the III
stalaton of machinery in the Match
Factory bv the A. Jedel Co., Manufac-
turers of Fire-work novelties.
Newark had scarcely realized the
fact that the old iactor" had been sold
when five carloads of machinery had
arrived,
Mr.. Golddecker. representing the
company. has made very good I'M
preston. If he can mcasI'e up to
what he hopes to do, Newark may
. we'll be proud OF him. THE POST
extends its good wishes and offers its
columns to the A. Jedel Co.. and prom
ises its support so long as they adhere
TO their present policy. =.
Newark should give these people all
the encouragement they can.
HelD them to make good.
There is nothing Newark needs
more than fireworks establishment.
The A. Jedel Co. and NEWA X
POST expect to do their part.
Newark post., 1910-02-09

The editor OF the Post sets forth
what he hopes to do and what he ex
poets to receive in return He does
not make the usual mistake OF such
new ventures by promising to reform
all wrongs and to bring about no end
of economic and political revolutions.
Instead he is modest to commend
able degree and seeks only to advance
the common good. That IS enough
in all reason. If the Post can ad-
vance the common good so much the
better. In his bow to the public the
editor OF the Post remarks is naive
way:
| have no special cause to further,
no theories to explode. | simply want
to have some fun, make some money,
and make good.
As to having iun we fancy that the
new recruit to the newspaper contin:
gent will find plenty OF it. if he has
the proner conceptions of fun. but he
will also discover that there. is plenty
of work attached to running a "r3un-
try weekly and making both ends
meet We do not wish to discourage
him. and prefer to hope that he will
not only have his fun but make some
money" in addition. He wants his
paper to be "a financial success" and
we sincerely trust that it may be.
We welcome the Post as refresh
ing instance OF that hope which springs
eternal in the breast OF youth. 1t has
taken the people CT Newark into its
confidence and that is suggestive of a
personal appreciation OF the new ven
ture. Here are the best OF wishes for
the Post, and may it live long and
prosper and become a welcome week

A Woman's Great Idea

Is how to make herself attractive
but without health it is hard for
her to be lovely in face, form or
temper. A weak, sickly woman
will be nervous and irritable. Con-
stipation and kidney poisons show
in pimples, blotches, skin eruptions
and wretched complexion. But
Electric Bitters always prove a
godsend to women who want health
beauty and friends. They regulate
stomach, liver and kidneys, purify
the blood, give strong nerves,
bright eyes, pure breath, smooth
yelvety skin, lovely complexion,
good health. Try them. soc at

MANY MILES
OF LATERA[S
In Cowiche- Yakima Unit of the
Teton to Be Constructed
This Year.
RECLAMATION SERVICE
ASKS BIDS ON THE WORK
Development Will Furnish Water
for Some 5000 Acres and it Is
Expected Will Be Concluded
by Autumn of This Season.

The Reclamation service has issued
an advertisement for bids to be
opened March Is, 1910, covering Sc
miles of main laterals for the Cow
iche-Y akima branch. or second unit
of the Tieton project. The work con-
sists of about 3S5,000 cubic yards of
excavation, and will include in addi-
ton to some smaller laterals at the
upper end, a main lateral running
from the north fork Of Cowiche creek
crossing the South fork about two
miles above Cowiche p. O., thence
along the hillside to the summit of the
Yakima ridge and along the ridge
to it's end above the Congdon ditch
This development will furnish water
for about 5000 acres, and it is ex-
pected will be completed by autumn
of this year.
The approximate south boundary of
the unit is the Congdon ditch and tho
road leading across the hill into the
Cowiche valley. With the first and
second units in operation, about 90
900 acres of Teton lands will prob
ably be ready for water in the sea-
son of 1911.
1t is expected that the third unit or
Wide Hollow branch will be furnished
water in the season Of 1912.

response to question by Nertrees
summed up the specific acts which he
charged against Ballinger. The state
ment was a long one but it was
listened to with intense interest. as
for the first time it contained def
mite statement of prosecutions case"
In brief the offenses he alleges against
Ballinger are: Ballinger's participa-
ton in the drawing up of an escrow
agreement in the Wilson case. Bal
fingers alleged promise in the sum-
mer of 1907 to support Agent Jones
when he knew there had been vio-
lation in the coal land laws and his
statement that he was coming to
to see what congress
could do to help the claimants get
their patents.
His ordering the Cunningham
claims to patent upon the old report
made by Special Agent Love. His APP
pearance before the public lands COM
mittee of the house in favor of the
Gale bill. If the Gale law had passed
1t would have validated the claims.
His alleged unprofessional action in
deliberately going around and repre-
senting the other side after having
been commissioner of the land office.
His alleged action in asking CLAWS
in 1905 to defer investigation of the
coal cases during the political cam
paign. Vertrees indicated that his
cross-examination would be long
and thorough one The inquiry will
proceed tomorrow and there will be
daily sessions held.

YAKIMA CITL. LINE
AN OPEN QUESTION
Yakima Valley Electric Company
Defers Decision to a Meeting
IN Two Weeks.

Construction of a gasoline motor
line between North Yakima and Yak
ina City was not decided upon Satur-
day by the trustees of the Yakima
Valley Electric Railway company
Neither was it decided against. The
subject is open for further discussion
and on the obtaining of further data
another meeting will be held in two
weeks, 1t was not expected that
decision would be made at the meet.
ing of Saturday as the construction of
the line depends on the action to be
taken by the street railway company
and it is possible that that organiza-
ton will extend its east line at an
early date. Those interested in the
undertaking say that what they are
looking for primarily is, passenger
communication between Union Gap,
Yakima City and North Yakima and
if it does not come from one source
it will come from another They say
frankly that 1t is a real estate propo-
sition with them and communication
is their first need even if they have
to build 1t.
