Publicity Committee Needs Help Of Everyone
in Carrying Out Plans for Up-River
Picnic-Excursion, Aug.l0

Less than two weeks remain in
which to complete arrangements and
sell tickets for the Commercial Club g
big picnic-excursion to Hanford and
White Bluffs. A week from Thurs
day, August 10th, is the date of the
event, and the publicity committee,
which met last night to frame up
details, are determined to make it
the most enjoyable event of this or
any other year if hard work and
hustling will do it.
The secretary will have the adver-
tising issued the first of the week
and tickets will be on sale at nearly
every business place in this city,
Finley and Hover, while H.. NJ.

look after the advance sale among

WILL SPOKANE RATE APPLY HERE ?

On Monday the Interstate Com
m cree Commission handed down
their decision giving Spokane the
terminal freight rates she has been
fighting for for the past 20 years
and wiping out the "backhaul"
charges.
Now the question is: Will Ken
rewick and other of the more i'm
portant Inland Empire towns be
given the same terminal rates in
common with Spokane? On this,
local opinion seems about divided.
The local railroad men say they do
not know and will not know until
the new tariffs are published in
about month. Some of the busi-
ness men say that we are certain to
be given the Spokane rate voluntari-
ly by the railroads, while others are
just as decided that the carriers
will not grant the terminal rate to
intermediate points between Spo-
kane and the Coast cities, unless
for ed to by decision of the COM
merce commissioners.
1t is altogether likely, however,
that on account of the water COM
petetion at this point, Kennewick
will be granted the terminal rating
when the new tariffs are made pub
lie.
This means that freight charges
from Missouri River points will be
reduced from Is to 25 per cent,

CREAMERY co.
OFFICERS CHOSEN
Substantial Men Chosen to Manage
the Affairs Of kennewick's
Newest Industry

At a meeting of the stockholders
Of the Columbia Valley Creamery
Co., Wednesday afternoon, the fol-
lowing officers were elected: Pres,
M. H. Church; Vice-Pres., w. F.
Blaidsdell; Secy., L. E. Johnson:
Fay F. Dean, Treas. and Gen. Mgr.
The company voted to accept the
offer of the Twin City Ice and Cold
Storage Co. for building site ad-
joining the ice plant, and then ad-
journed to meet again this friday
afternoon Immediately after the
close Of the stockholders meeting
which was called for two o'clock.
At this afternoons meeting the
constitution and bylaws will be ad-
opted, and the project will be dis
cussed from A to z, so that all
those interested may learn what
the promoters are trying to do and
how they propose to do it.
President Church states that all
the stock has been subscribed and
that building operations may pos
possibly be begun inside a couple
OF weeks. AS soon as ground is
broken for the plant, orders for
machinery will be sent in and the
outfit assembled with all speed.
Mr.. Church was recently visited by
the traffic manager of the Northern
Pacific relative to securing cows
for distribution thruOut the valley,
and has also communicated with
Traffic Manager, R. r. Miller of
the O.-W. R. q n. who, in speak
ing before the Commercial Club
last spring, advised the valley to go
in for dairying and hog raising.
The agents of both these roads will
likely be of great help in gathering
up dairy herds to bring into the
valley. Mr.. Church estimates that
from s25,OOO to $4,000 will be
sent out Of the valley for dairy ami
mails during the coming fall and
winter.

MERCHANT
HOLDS A POTlATCH
Novel Scheme for Making Presents to
Patrons to be tried at The
Store of Quality"

A trip to Seattle to take in the
Potlatch is a foolish waste of time
and money. c. B. Stewart, Kenne-
wick's leading dry goods merchant.
is holding a potlatch in his store
that rivals even the affair pulled
off at Seattle the past week. The
plan is a novel one, and one that
will secure the same results that
the city of Seattle was striving for,
and will go the city one better by
actually giving away things to the
people who attend. The plan in
brief is this: if an alarm rings while
you are waiting for your change in
the store on Saturday, the full
amount will be misunderstanding
the article free. Twenty times dur
ing the day, Saturday, an alarm
clock will ring. If you have made
a purchase and happen to be wait
ing for your change when the clock
rings, your money will be handed
back, and the article you were pur-
chasing will be given to you with
the firms compliments. No one
will know just when the clock will
sound, giving everyone who attends
an equal chance to be the recipient
of a desirable gift.
Even if one doesn't happen to be
there when the alarm rings, it will
be we'll worth while to attend the
sale as everything in the Ashbaugh
stock has been marked down to in
troduce the new possessors to the
people of the valley. Read the big
ad.-it will mean money in your
pocket.

which will amount to saving OF
thousands of dollars yearly for con-
sumers throughout the valley.
While this is a considerable item
the local business men hardly re-
gard it as worthy of the demonstra-
ton such as Prosser made on hear
ing of the decision, but are conserv-
ing their energies for the big noise
which will be made in about three
weeks when the state commissioners
decision is made public. granting
this city distributive rates.

Few people are aware of the great
volume of business being done at
the local plant. While their ice
manufacturing business has of
course made large gains, the most
noticeable increase has been in the
bottling and shipping of soft drinks.
They are at this time preparing

ties of temperance beverages and
their shipments cover territory from
North Yakima to Lind and from
White Bluffs to The Dalles.

RECORD TIME MADE
IN CHANGING MAYORS
A. ii. Richards Resigns and H. A. Bier
Elected His Successor Within
an Hour

A. H. Richards, who, for the
past seven months has been the ef-
ficient head Of the city's govern
ment, resigned the mayorship at a
special session of the council called
for that purpose Tuesday evening.
Mr.. Richards recently traded his
extensive holdings in the city and
valley for an apartment property
in Seattle and conditions demanded
that he remove his residence to that
city at once. He would have gone
last week, but remained over to see
the completion of the sale of sewer
bonds.
Mr.. Richards, in rendering his
resignation, made a short address
to his fellow-workers on the coun-
|cil and thanked them for their
faithful help in administering the
city's affairs during the past few
months. Before the vote was taken
by which the mayors resignation
was accepted, several of the coun-
cilmen expressed the regret which
was in the minds of all, that the
city must lose so good citizen and
official as Mr.. Richards has proven
to be. Feeling that the city should
not be mayorless, even for week
and needing the signature of the
new mayor at once, so that its fac
simile may be Autographed on the
bond issue, the council Immediate
ly set about electing Mr.. Richards
successor. The names of Mr.. Gar
ber, Mr.. Bier, and Mr.. Sly were
put in nomination and the first
ballot elected Mr.. Bier by five votes
to one for each of the other nom-
inees. Mr.. CARRIER objected vigor-
ously to his nomination, and Mr..
Sly, when previously sounded, had
said that he could find neither the
time nor the health to take care of
any but his present business. so
that Mr.. Bier's election was salts
factory to all concerned.
The mayor-elect was called on
the phone at his home where he
was preparing to retire and much
to his surprise was informed of the
honor which had been thrust upon
him. He soon made his appear
ance and took his seat at the head
of the council table, where after roll
! call the meeting adjourned.
Mr.. Bier will make a good mayor
as he always has made good coun-
Gilman. With the exception of the
interval since January 1st, he has
always been active in the affairs OF
the city since its Incorporation.
He was the first treasurer the town
had and has served on the council
continuously since, with the excep-
ton of the last seven months.
