Mr.. c. H. Collins,
Kennewick, Wash.
Dear Sir
At the request of Mr.. E. Fry, 1
am writing you to let you know
how we like Prosser being dry.
We can truthfully say that since
this town went dry we have enjoyed
a steady increase in business, in
both sales and collections. Gus
toners that as a general rule got
drunk when in town, and run long
time bills, now pay cash, or least
hardly ever let their bills run over
thirty days.
OF course everybody knows that
the crops have been short for three
years, but Notwithstanding we can
show by our books steady increase
IN business since the town went dry.
OF course there are a few that
dispute this but they are decidly
Wet Ones. We hope in the near
future to see Kennewick get in line
as we know it is benefit to any
town, as help to trade and also to
get rid OF undesirable people.
Anything further in this line that
we can be of benefit to you please
DO not hesitate to call on US.
Respectfully yours,

ness than before, think, but all
things considered we wish to STAY
dry. The best results of the place
going dry are the good effects on
those in the business and the VIC
tins OF the business. Many of them
are now following useful and honor
able pursuits and lettering their
conditions.
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir
We are very pleased to say that
business has not been hurt any by
the closing of the saloons in this
town. We are getting more cash
and the collections are better.
There has been more activity in
the building of substantial brick
buildings than in years before, and
in every way l can frankly say that
the town has been bettered by the
change.
Very truly yours,

BELIEVES CONGRESS
SHOULD ACT SLOWLY
WOolbuyer Thinks Report of
Tariff Board Should Be Given
Consideration.

j. r. Edgerhill. one OF the most cx-
tcnslve wool buyers In the west, has re-
Gently returned from closing the seasons
work in Montana. in which field he hos
been operating since June 1. Despite the
not SO inviting as It was year ago,
Mr. Edgerhlll, as he prognosucated last
spring. says IT Is and will continue TO be
In healthy and profitable condition in
this country for years to come.
THE tariff question or rather the agi-
tation by congress has had marked ef-
feet upon the price OF WOOL" said Mr.
EdGerhill last night. 1T is fact that
all contracts made for the purchase OF
wool up TO the beginning OF the year
by this. that the woolgrowers received
by contracts made last year more money
than they would have received for their
neeces after shcaring.
In this connection. however, I want
to say that the price of wool ranged
comparatively hiGh-at least at profitable
pTices-to the producer; that IS as taken
from the back of the sheep II was worth
and commanded running price OF from
lit cents TO is cents a pound. These
prices obtained until after the Atwood
wool bill passed the house and wool that
before the passage of the bill, for which
u had offered II cents pound, / after
wards bought for II cents.
Il am not discussing the wisdom Of
congress In this matter. but i do think
that the commission that is investigating
these economic conditions should be
heard. and It's report weighed, before
any drastic. unconsidered measures
should De made into United States stat
utes."
Mr.. Edgerhill leaves for Boston within
day or two to confer with the assoca-
meantime he Is guest of the Hotel
