FIRST FEW GRAY HAIRS
MAY BE POSTPONED. {

A feeling of sadness accompanies the discovery of the first gray hairs, which, unfortunately, are looked upon as the heralds of advancing age. Gray hairs, however, are not always an indication of advancing age. for many people have gray hairs quite early in life. Of course, it is un- natural and indicates that there Is something wrong with the individual and that Nature needs assistance in correcting the trouble. The same is true of hair that is constantly falling out and becoming thinner every day. If everything is right with Nature. the hair, even in comparatively elder ly people, should be long, thick and glossy, without even a streak of gray.
 The ideal assistant to Nature in restoring and preserving the hair is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy. a clean and wholesome dressing for daily use. It not only removes dandruff but strengthens weak, thin and falling hair and pro- notes its growth. A few applications will restore faded or gray hair to It's natural color.
 This preparation Is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle and h recommended and sold by

MUNICIPAL
 COy[RNMENT Plan is the Most Important Before American Peo-

 Form Perfect.
GALVESTON'S WORK

tContinued From Last Sunday0 When the commission charter was first presented to the legislature, it provided for the appointment of the mayor president and four commls- sioners by the governor of the state. This appointive feature was opposed on the ground that it deprived the people of the right of self-goverli- ment. AS a compromise the bill was amended so that three would be ap- pointed and two elected by popular vote.
 The city government under the commission charter continued for period of 20 months. The constitu- tionality Of the bill, by reason Of It's appointive feature, was attacked through an arrest msde for violating city ordinance. An appeal was tsken to the court of crimint9l ap- pAals w' r, ie ",.o chief trih,lral of teM7.z .- c.''.aai..al 1' tiers. and the law decl'-rs' r~ronsti-utiona' by said court. .-- a yo'a of twp t9 enc, t'.sre being three s.,c~nho,s of -iNe court.

to make the appointments. The lega1 jurisdiction in Texas is peculiar. The supreme court is supreme in civil mat | ters, and the court of criminal ap- peals is supreme in criminal matters There is nobody to judge the supreme then. Consequently, should the SUI preme court on civil case decide differently to the 'crimianl court of appeals in 2. criminal case, there would be no way of hlarmonizing the difference
 At the time the court declared the commission charter unconstitutional because of it's appointive feature the legislature then in session, was about to adjourn; Judge J. z. H. Scott, then city attorney, "a lawyer of splin- did ability, went t,o the state capitol and under great pressure, re-wrote the entire charter, providing for the election of sll five of the members of the city commission, and had it reenacted. The mayor-president and four commissioners were then prom pt1y and overwhelmingly elected by the people.
 A Said Incident.

LIBRARY WORK

A special meeting of the trustees
of the Libary Association was held
Saturday afternoon. The treasurer
reported $74. 40 in the treasury, over
$40 more than a week ago. Many
of the patrons of the library have
expressed their dissatisfaction of the
location of the library and in con-
sideration of this and the high rent
which is now being paid, a COM
mittee was appointed to look up a
room which would be acceptable.
The Oath was set as the date of
DR.. Hewetson' 8 stereopticon lecture
on his foreign travels, which will be
given in the Pavilion under the
auspices of the library association
and the city schools. The use of the
mechanical APPARATUS necessary for
the views mas been contributed by
Mr.. CoulsOn.
Clark and Booze, proprietors of the
Princess Theatre, have offered the
Association one half of the net pro-
ceeds of an afternoon and evening
perfOrmancesome time in the future,
all the expenses to be. borne by the
Princess. Additional reels and
special music will be put on, making
the performance more than usually
attractive.

GROWING PEDIGREED TREES

II. W. Reaugh, manager of the
Ballygrcen Nurseries near Hanford, |
was in town the first of the week.
Mr. Reaugh and {. y. Whaley of
st. Paul are owners of 60 acres of
fine fruit land on the river about
three miles above Hanford and
claim originality for the Bailygreen
system of growing selected certified
pedigreed trees, They have 20 acres
in nursery stock and 80 acres in
two-year-old apples.
Believing that as the bud or
scion, so the tree these nursery
men two years ago began the sys-
tenn of carefully selecting their
scions from the best trees in prize
winning orchards throughout the
state. Their Spitzenburgs and New
ton scions are from Sproat's Hood
River orchard which won the sweep
stakes at the Spokane Apple Show
and their Winesaps and Delicious
are from the orchards of O. G..
France at Wenatchee and Dick Hart
at Toppenish, both of which orch
ards won high honors at Spokane.
Mr.. Reaugh is firm believer in
his system and says that it is the
only way to propagate an orchard
of profitable bearing trees, as there
is no question but the laws of re-
production apply equally to vege-
table growth as to animal life
So far, the work at the Bally-
green Nursery has been applied only
to apples but it is only question OF
time when all varieties of fruit will
be grated according to the pedi.
greed system.
They have no stock for sale thi:
spring, orders having exhausted
their supply some weeks ago.

RICH HELPS COUNTY SEAT FIGHT

continued from first pagel
would have allowed the criticism of
cases pending in the courts.
The house has killed the govern
or's plan, advocated in his message,
Of having only governor and Ecu.
tenant-governor elective offices, and
giving the executive the power to
appoint the secretary Of state,
auditor, etc.
The house has also voted down a
scheme of commission form of gov
eminent for counties, by the terms
of which the sheriff, treasurer, clerk,
auditor and assessor were to form
the board of commissioners.
Bad feeling has developed between
the house and the senate. The
house threatens to pass no more
senate bills for the present because
the senate has devoted practically
all it's time to passing its own bills
and has paid no attention to the
house measures.
With over half the session gone,
the legislature has hardly started
work on the more important pieces
of legislation, such as theemployers
liability law, the option law, the
reapportionment and the public
utilities commission. All talk OF
possible 40 or so session has passed
and a much speedier gait must now
he struck to finish work in 60 days.
Both houses of the legislature adj
journed early Thursday to allow
the members to 60 to Tacoma to see
prize fight there. The Tacoma
commissioners had the police stop
the fight and the disappointed legis-
lators returned TO Olympia rather
crestfallen.
There is over million dollars diff
ference in the budget bills prepared
by the house and senate appropri-
ations committees. The house bill
is the lower, every appropriation
being cut to the limit. The senate
billwill touch the seven million mark.
Apple Growers Protest
The legislature will protest to
congress against the passage of the
Lafean law which would be a blow
to the apple industry of the North
west. The Lafean bill, if it became
a law. would change the size of the
standard apple box adopted by all
northwestern growers to new
standard to suit the eastern com.
mission men.
A memorial expressing the dis.
pleasure OF Washington growers was
prepared by Senator F. J. Allen and
will be forwarded Immediately to
Washington, D. c.

PROSSER WINS DEBATE

In the debate on the income tax
question at the Presbyterian church
last Friday evening between repre-
sentatives of the Prosser and Ken
newick High Schools, the victory
went to Prosser on a two-tO.One de-
cision. rendered by the judges,
Prof. +. J. Klemme of the Ellens-
burg State Normal School and Prof.
Bratton and Prof. Lyman of Whit
man College. \ spirit of the keen
est rivalry has existed between the
two schools for some years and dur
ing the past three years two victories
in debate have been scored by
Kennewick and two by Prosser.
Prosser's first speaker, Clayton
Smith, appeared to be little more
than a mere child in years and
presented many good arguments for
the affirmative. He is undoubtedly
talented and will probably develop
into speaker who will be credit
to his school and town.
Harold Guernsey, the rebuttal
speaker for the affirmative was an
extremely forceful talker and his
extemporaneous work in summing
up his argument is worthy OF special
commendation.
G. +. Richardson's speech in de-
Tense of the negative and an un-
popular side of the question was
distinguished by the clear and force
full way in which he refuted the ar
guments of the affirmative and his
pleasing stage presence would have
been distinctly creditable to many
older speakers.
Miss Rosetta Hamilton has always
stood at the head of herI class and
in public speaking, years of ex-
perience and natural aptitude have
won her we'll merited honors. In
the face If this past record her many
friends were greatly mystified to see
her falter in giving her address and
her color gradually fade until she
was unable to continue herargument.
The overheated condition OF the
room is the cause attributed to her
sudden illness. After resting a
short time by the open window the
chairman announced that she would
finish her debate. Such courage
would not be found in one girl in a
hundred and her pluck deserves high
tribute.
/ Owing to Miss Hamilton s illness,
George Richardson delivered the
rebuttal for kennewick.
