line, instead of having 1t divided
into districts as at present.
Jas. Patterson of the Mcpherson
Heating Co. of Portland, might be
called the Simeon Ford of the
West" for he kept the crowd in a
continual good humored chuckle
throughout his brief extemporaneous
remarks. His greatest hit was the
one by which he ended his talk:
Now that you have the laurels on
your brows, be careful that you do
not stop and browse on your lau-
rels.'
THE Strength of Unity, was the
subject assigned to Rev. E. A. Mum
ger, secretary of the Pasco CONNER
cia] Climb and along this line of
thot the speaker urged that some
thing be done toward Kennewick-
Pasco development district, and al
so that concerted work toward
highway bridge between the cities
be pushed without let-up.
S. J. Harrison, of Seattle, who is
now interested in the rejuvenation
of Benton City, spoke on Develop
ing Our Resources. The greater
portion of Mr.. Harrison's interest
ing remarks were devoted to the i'm
portance of getting better products
from our lands and getting them to
the big markets in better shape.
E. M. Sly, who always says some
thing when be talks, had for his
subject, Some Pertinent Facts"
With the new rates, and the river.
to help us, Mr.. Sly cannot see where
North Yakima and Walla Walla are
going to have look in'' with
Kennewick and Pasco in the future
development of this section. The
business has simply got to come to
us, said the speaker. Just how
soon it will come will be determined
by our own efforts, but eventually
it must center at this point.
Geo. F. Richardson was last but
not least on the program and his
subject, The Next Step." was
handled iii his enthusiastically
optimistic manner. Next to get
ting thu county seat, which, accord
ing to the speaker, won't he much
of job, the improvement of our
harbor facilities comes next in i'm
portance. Mr.. Richardson is al
ways at home in talking on his
hobby-harbor improvement-and
may ever be depended upon to
Undue with his enthusiasm any
gathering before which he may talk.
Secretary Gardner was in receipt
Of several dozen congratulatory let

the state, and read letters from

He has been known to go without meals rather than face or be in the prces zee of women.
 On several occasions he exhibited a violent disposition and it wac deemed best to place him under restraint, and doubtless medical treatment will over. come his ra srksbla mania and re- store him 'n n-rrual cGrG,iion. 1he prisoner answered all other questions readily during his examination, The belief is that care and attention at the asylum will fleet cure.

Annual Cost of the

The income of the University of Arizona for the year 1912 vii be $l07, ,- 670. Of shis amount the national government contributes as0, 900. which may surprise citizens of the state, who have been accustomed to believe that the state provided for ell os most of the expenses of the Uoi- vsr-ity. The new dormitory for men. with its equipment is to cost &28.- 000; if this amount were subtracted from the total sxpend iturs. for it is an nnususl expense, the appropriation by consress would approximsse co per cent of the total budget.
