NORTH COAST
RAILS IN PLACE
First Track of Series of Seven or
More Is Constructed up to
Yakima Avenue

Rails of the North Coast railway
have been laid as far west as Yakima
avenue and a work train has been
run up to the limit of the rails. This
was accomplished Friday afternoon
about o'clock. The laying Of the
last rail was watched by large
number of citizens. among them such
men as George Weikel, who was here
long before a railway was construct
ed and who has been waiting a long
time for the Hartman people to
come. Another spectator who was on
hand when the gold spike was plugged
home was bill Steele. Mr.. Steele
was an old stage driver in Wyoming
and Montana and Idaho and Wash
ington in the days when the railway
was something effeminate used "way
back east" Nowadays he is a trav-
eler in Pullman cars and enjoys the
ride.
To Build Many Tracks
One track was completed Friday
but before the workmen get through
there will be seven or nine sets of
rails or maybe more in that portion
of the city. Three sets of passenger
tracks are to be completed at once
up to the station platform and fur
Their east. where the freight house
stands, there will be two tracks.
There will be other tracks between
and a "Y" further down south t.
ward the ice house and probably q
stub track to the west in the rear of
the station, and other tracks else
where. The construction crew is here
and has lot of work to do before II
gets through with it's task.
The Telegraph Line
The telegraph line will be con-
structed through to North Yakima
within a week. There is a large crew
out now, digging holes, erecting poles,
placing cross-arms and stretching
wires. This crew is coming westward
fast and may be expected to reach
this city any time now. At any rate
the service will be ready for dis
patching before March %, when a
valley excursion train will reach here
at 1915 o'clock and a Walla Walla
exclusion train fifteen minutes later.
The North Coast station building
has been completed and presents a
much better appearance than had
been expected. In that regard the
North Coast is better of than the
Northern Pacific was year ago be-
fore the present N. P. depot was COM
pleted. The officers are located and
the only thing awaited Is the acual
carrying Of passengers and freight.

LIMANTOUR NO CANDIDATE
Says So Himself When Accused of
Being Capitalistic Choice for
Mexican President

NEW YORK, March 11-Senor
Jose Yves Limantour. Mexican min
lister of finance, who is here, indig-
nantly denied the truth of the story
that the American capitalistic ele-
ment with a dominant holding in
Mexico has on foot a plan to procure
the resignation of President Diaz and
install Limantour himself in the ex-
ecutive chair.
The suggestion that private capt.
tai and foreign capital could
make and unmake Mexican admin
istrations and ministries provoked his
ridicule and anger and that his name
should be connected with any such
alleged scheme deeply grieved the
minister.
American Justice
Senior Limantour said: 81 have said
today that l am a great believer in
the keen sense of justice of the Am
erican people and 1 wish most serious

time: and that he was not sure that
Bowinkleman was confined to the

he was away himself an hour and a

LEONARD THORP'S FATHER
THEN LOCATED IN MCKEE
Entire Development of This Por-
ton of the State Is Embraced in
the Period Since February,
1861-Attracted by Climate

North Yakima and Yakima valley
people this year overlooked an in
teresting anniversary, nothing more
nor less than the semi-centennial OF
the settlement Of this part of Wash
ington by white settlers. On Feb
ruary Is, 1911, F. M. Sharp came
across country from Goldendale and
made his home, permanently, in the
Mckee valley, opposite to what is
now Yakima city. Accompanying him
was Charles Splawn, brother of Hon
A. j. Splawn of this city, and L. L
Thorp, then a boy, was a member Of
the party. There was at that time
no family resident in this part of the
state between the Columbia river an6
Puyallup.
Valley History Is Brief
Fifty years. therefore, cover the
entire history of white settlement il
this valley and the actual growth anG
development is included in a much
shorter period. There are people here
who came after the railway entered
a quarter of a century ago who say
all there has been in the way Of
growth has been in the last ten years
This. however, fails to take into &C
count the work of necessity done b,
the pioneers. The stockmen had theil
day and at times found it hard
enough. Wintering animals in thi:
valley nowadays, where food is RAISED
in immense quantities. does not pre-
sent the problems it did then, an6
raising products which find a railway
market nearer or farther away il
simpler than it was to drive beef tc
a mining camp or to some other place
where it was in demand.
Second Family Locates
Charles Splawn, after he came here
with F. M. Thorp, was engaged in
hauling through supplies to miners
who were scattered all up and dowr
the Columbia river but he returned
few months later and married Mr.
Thorps daughter and made his home
here also. Hon. A. ]. Splawn came
in here in June of that year. Other.
followed. attracted by the climate anc
the grazing possibilities. They settled
and the little home orchards pointed
out a new possibility. When mar
says he has been here forty years il
seems a long time, but just a month
more than half a century ago there
was no white family in this whole
country.
