IN HARD LUCK.
Peer of All Yakima Autopobile
Drivers Is Compelled to Ask
for Assistance.

George C. Arrowsmith, the queen
bee of the whole colony of automobile
drivers of the Yakiam valley, has at
last got his. Over at White Bluffs Fri
day he came to grief and had to send
out a Macedonian cry for help. 1t is
only fair to Mr.. Arrowsmith to say
that even now his machinery record
has no blot on it and that the trouble
which came to him was one of con-
struction, or material, or a plain ac-
cident, and nothing which he could
control. While riding through the
streets of White Bluffs Friday even
ing, enroute for North Yakima, he
broke the rear axle of his Franklin.
That was in front of the First Bank
of White Bluffs and as it was after
banking hours he was unable to ne
gotiate a loan of new axle SO he
telephoned to North Yakima, by way
of Kennewick, for assistance. Harry

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 16.-Rear
Admiral Edward B. Barry today
hauled down his pennant and relin-
pushed command of the Pacific
fieet to Rear Admiral Chauncey
Thomas.
The ceremony was marked with
all the formalities prescribed in the
regulations but the peculiar and
crave circumstances to which q re-
port ascribes Admiral Barry's sudden
request for retirement. robbed the
occasion of the spontaneous and per-
sonal features. which custom has al
ways made a part of such cere-
monies.
After reading the orders detach-
ing him as commander of the fleet,
Admiral Barry made a short spec. h
to the assembled officers and men
expressing a warm feeling for the
''West Virginia" and his regret at
leaving the cruiser.
Instead of Immediately going
ashore as is customary, Barry re-
tired to his cabin and waited until
night fall to take his departure
While he was waiting in his cabin
Barry received an Associated Press
reporter to whom he denied in gen.
eral and emphatic terms the stories
published concerning the reasons Tor
his unexpected retirement from the
navy.

Ample storage of water will be

RECOMMENDATIONS
ON STATE ROADS
Governor Hay Would Tax Auto
mobiles Twenty-Five Cents for
Every Horse Power.

In view of the present agitation In
favor of good roads the recommends
tons Of Governor Hay on this point
in his message to the legislature will
be of interest. They are as follows:
/. That the county engineer must
be graduate Of a reputable school
of engineering, and that upon him
shall devolve the supervision Of con,
struction.
2. That the State Aid Road law
be renamed and re-enacted and
called County Aid.
3. That to this law be added q
new section which would be State
Aid. This should provide that where
county will make road in con-
sonance with the desires of the State
Highway department, the state shall
pay Is per cent of the estimated cost
for dirt roads; for semi macadam
roads 80 per cent, and for macad-
amized roads 40 per cent.
4. That a tax Of 25 cents per horse
power per annum be levied upon
each motor vehicle in the state. This
the message estimates, will yield a
revenue in excess of $4,000 for the
biennium. This fund shall be ap.
piled for road maintenance.
S. That the State Highway Com
mission, now composed of the State
Auditor. State Treasurer and State
by adding thereto the Governor and
a member of tho Railroad Commits
sion.
9. That convict labor shall be ap-
piled to highways but that after the
convict has served his minimum SEN
tence to his credit be applied SO cents
a day, the SO cents to be either sent
to his family or. in the event of his
having no family, be allowed to ac-
cumulate and be given to him upon
his discharge.
He finds that the highways depart
ment has done the best it could I'M
der the present state road laws. He
points out that the bulk of the money
spent on the state roads has been
expended by the county. For every
dollar the taxpayer has expended
during the past biennium. 84.42 cents
has been expended through the
county commissioners and only 1858
through the state, he says.
Not Altogether Popular.
There is nothing so certain as the
fact that the state aid road law will
be repealed and another measure
substituted in its place. says an
Olympia dispatch. All agree as to the
evil, but there is divergence of op.
inion as to the remedy. There are
certain west side counties. notably
Gle Elum county, that will make 9
fierce fight on the present law. 81
far as could be learned today, the
governors recommendations along
this line are not altogether popular
1t is considered as not reaching the
trouble.

PROTEST OVER
RECLAMATION
North Yakima People Press Their
Demands for Better Distribu-
ton of the Funds.

North Yakima and Yakima valley
people are out after a better pro-
portion of the reclamation funds and
are taking steps to have the interests
of this state recognized. No COM
plant is made with the manner in
which the special $2O,O00,000 fund is
dfsbursed but there is a strong feel
ing that the reclamation fund itself
is not being distributed with a mind
free to the needs and the claims Of
this section of the state. This feeling
is expressed in newsletter sent by
Western Union last night to Senator
Jones, from the Commercial club of
this city. The same resolutions were
sent to the Commercial club and the
Chambers Of Commerce Of the cities
of Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Belling-
ham and Everett. The resolutions
are as follows:
Text of Resolutions.
At a meeting Of the Commercial
club held January IL, 1911, the fol-
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
"Resolved-That inasmuch as the
state of Washington has to January
1, 1911, contributed to the reclama-
ton fund 9.79 per cent and has re-
ceived from that fund to the same
date 7.18 per cent and has by act
of the legislature turned over to the
government all the surplus water of
the Yakima watershed with tacit I'M
derstanding that the government
would develop to it's full capacity the
storage of such water, and
Whereas, the award made by the
board of army engineers does not give
to the state of Washington any more
money from the reclamation fund for
five years. we
Protest Against Award.
Hereby protest against this award
and urge the representatives at Wash
ington to use every effort in their
power to have this injustice corrected
and to have a sufficient amount from
the reclamation fund appropriated to
the state of Washington to complete
the projects already begun in this
state. and especially that known as
the Kittitas High Line. and to COM
plete the necessary works for the
storage of the surplus water"
1t is expected that this resolution
will be forwarded to the national
capitol by the various bodies in this
state to THE attention of which 1t
has been called.

BowINKLEMAN GETS LIBERTY
Prosecuting Attorney Ward Will Pro-
badly File Information Charging
Manslaughter.

Despite the fact that Prosecuting
Attorney Ward filed an information
in the superior court today, charg-
ing Henry Bowinkleman, who shot
and killed John Meeboer at Black
Rock Springs last Friday, with MUIR
der in the first degree,- Judge Preble
admitted the prisoner to bail in the
sum of $4,000. This will probably
be secured Tuesday. 1t is expected
that the trial of Bowinkleman will
come up some time in March.

who had been in Jail since he gave

taken into consideration and that
he should be released.

The rifle carried by Bowinkleman

Henry Bowinkleman, prominent
Black Rock farmer, Friday shot and
killed John Meeboer, neighbor, at
Black Rock Springs and then drove
40 miles to this city. arriving here
last evening, and gave himself up to
Deputy Sheriff Hawn. A man named
Matthew's, for whom Meeboer was
working. was an eyewitness to the
killing. Bowinkleman is held in the
county Jail pending an investigation.
It is probable that charge of MUIR
der will be preferred against him.
According to the prisoner, there
has been "bad blood" between he and
his victim for some months. past. Fri
day about noon, he arrived at the
spring and found Meeboer pumping a
tank of water. BoMinkleman says
Meeboer's only greeting was an insult
and that the word brought on an
other until Meeboer made a play
for his (Bowinkleman's) rife.
Fight for the Gun.
Bowinkleman declares that he and
Meeboer got hold Of the only gun on
the scene, the one carried by him

trigger. shooting Meeboer through
the heart.
Turning to Matthews, Bowinkle-
man announced his intentions OF
coming to this city and giving him
self up after which he Immediately
set out to do so. Afraid that me
might change his mind on the way
here, Matthews reported the shoot
ing to Chaucey Fair. who at once
drove to North Yakima to report the
case. Fair was not able to give ANY
details except that Matthews was an
eye witness and that the men had
quarrelled. Matthews could not be
located last night.
