THE NEWSPAPER AND ITS
EDITOR.

Editing newspaper in some re-
spects is good deal like preaching.
The gospel truth must be presented in
the form of generalities or some fell
low will get hit and howl, says re-
cent writer. Few persons like truth,
even in homeopathic doses, II 1t hits
them. But while preachers and
editors are criticised for what they
do say, no one thinks Of giving them
credit for what they do not say. Yet
what they keep to themselves consti-
tutes the major portion of what they
know about people. Very many peo-
pie harbor the belief that newspa-
pers are eager to publish derogatory
things. It's a mistake. There isn't
a newspaper that could not spring q
sensation in the community at any
time by merely telling what it knows.
There is not a newspaper that does
not keep under the lock of secrecy
scores of derogatory things which
never meet the public eye or reach
the public ear. Deciding what not to
print is the most troublesome part of
newspaper work. How many good
stories are suppressed for innocent
relatives and for the public good, no.
body outside Of a newspaper office
has any idea Of. In some instances
he who flies into a passion because
a newspaper prints something about
him which he considers uncompli-
mentary has every reason to feel pro-
foundry grateful to the newspaper for
publishing so little of what it knows
Of him. And oft times the loudest
buffer is the most vulnerable to at
tack. A big noise is often a device
employed to cover trepidation. News
papers put up with more bluffing
than any other agency would endure
1t IL not because they lack courage;
it Is because they are unwilling to
use their power to destroy or ruin
unless the interests of society i'm
peratively demand it. It might be
well for some people to reflect upon
these truths and in silent gratitude
accept mild admonition, lest worst
befall acknowledgements Argus.

UNLIMITED LAWLEssNEss.

The sentiment of the American
public knows no bounds. They chose
any time or place to perform any
ceremonies which may appeal to
their fads or fancies. The
lynching of Negroes by white men
is prevalent, yet the lynching Of
white men by white men has proven
that this lawlessness is not born Of
prejudice alone, but out Of custom
practiced by these public execu-
TONERS, who disregard the written
laws of the land and hold justice as a
mockery.

Cause and Source Of Race Prejudice.
When the colored people were slaves
to the whites they met with little or
no opposition from them except in the
matter Of depressing them beyond
their physical strength at manual la
Dor. But since the day they became
free there has been no end Of opposi-
ton to their progress. This. however.
Is only a sign that the race possesses
the necessary elements which charac-
terize the thrifty citizens Of any other
race. And. again. this opposition does
not come from all the white people.
but only from such as harbor race
prejudice.

PORT DISTRICT
FOR KENNEWICK
Law Recently Passed Gives City
Opportunity for Big Harbor
Development

That it will be possible for Ken
newick to take advantage of recent
legislation and be made the center
of harbor district is the opinion
of members of the Commercial Club
who have been studying the new
law.
Though the measure in question
was passed primarily for the bene-
fit of the port of Seattle and other
coast cities, it is believed that con-
ditions here are 80 similar that the
law can be made applicable to Ken
newick.
The law provides that port i'm
provement district may be formed
upon a vote of the people within
such territory and a special assess
ment levied upon property therein
for the improvement Of certain
harbor to accommodate such terri
tory. 1t is thought that enough
property may be included in such
district here, to raise from $780,
600 to 100000 for the improve
ment of the Kennewick river front.
These Improvements will include
dredging the channel, building per-
manent docks and erecting a large
warehouse for rental to wholesalers
who will want to lay in stocks for
distribution at this point.
A long step in this direction has
alre~ dy been taken by the establish
ment of shore and harbor lines by
the government engineers who are
now at work here under the direc-
ton of Engineer Yeager.
Perhaps the most important move
of all toward the establishment OF
the harbor district is that the terri
tory adjacent thereto be incorpor-
ated within the city limits at the
coming election, on May 18th
Without this added territory, the
Commercial Club will be much
hampered in the campaign they
are planning for the improvement
of the city's harbor.

CROSSES OCEAN TO
WE'D FORMER LOVER
Miss Thompson Journeys Seven Thou.
sand Miles to Marry MIR. Barry.
of Walla WaIla

Travelling a distance of seven
thousand miles, crossing an ocean
and a continent, for the purpose of
becoming the wife of a childhood
lover, Miss Margaret Thompson ar
rived at the home of her aunt, Mrs.
G. A. Hamilton, of this place last
Saturday. The journey began in
Glasgow, Scotland, nearly three
weeks ago, nine days of which were
spent on the ocean.
Miss Thompson came over to
marry Mr.. James Barry, of Walla
Walla, the cermony taking place at
the Hamilton home here tonight at
700 O'Clock, followed by a wedding
reception to few of the friends of
the family.
Rev. Fraser will speak the words
that will eliminate the romance be-
gan in the old country years ago.
Mr.. Aurthur Park, Scotch friend
of the groom in the old country,
will be groomsman, while Miss
Rosel1a Hamilton will attend the
bride. Miss Margaret Hamilton
will play the wedding march, Mr..
Hamilton giving the bride away.
The bride and bridegroom were
schoolmates together in Scotland,
where their friendship grew into
love. While there he joined the
yeomen and enlisted in the war
against the Beers. While in the
service he had two horses shot from
under him, but escaped without a
scratch. After the war he came to
America to win his fortune and
make home. In the two years he
has been in the Walla Walla coun-
| try he has succeeded in the business
world to such an extent that he had
neat little home ready for the
bride to choose the furniture for.
Mr.. and Mrs. Barry will leave for
their new home in the Gaaden City
on the early train Saturday morn.

wishes of their newlymade friends.

NO ACTION ON FRANCHISE
Council Asks for More Time to Think
the Proposition over

The council could come to no
conclusion concerning the fifty-year
franchise for the Pacific Power &
Light Co. at the special meeting
Tuesday night which had been called
especially for discussion of that
measure, and the matter was again
laid on the table.
All the why's and wherefores of
the company's request for an ex-
tension of some thirty years of their
present franchise was gone into at
length by Vice President Grenier,
who had made a special trip from
Portland to be present at the meet
ing.
The company's argument in favor
of the long-term franchise is that
in operating under such terms they
are in position to borrow money for
thei extensions and improvement
at much cheaper rate than under
short term franchise. Cheaper
money for them means cheaper
rates for the consumer and bette,
service on account of the more ex.
tensive plants the company is al
liberty to equip where their fran
chise terms are more liberal.
The councilmen individually seem
to be favorably inclined toward the
proposed extension of time, but were
unwilling to take any decided action
until having had more opportunity
to study the proposition over. 1t is
probable that the question will be
brought up for discussion at the
next meeting of the Commercial.
Club and decided action will bt
taken by the council some time
| next month. In the meantime the
city clerk was instructed to OBJ btair
if possible opinions on the long tern
franchise question from the public
utilities commissions in New York
Wisconsin and other states wher,
similar commissions are in opera
ton as will be operative in thi
state after June lst.
