The Herald publishes in this issue
a letter from Miss Wylie detailing
conditions in China and containing a
plea for aid and assistance from pub
lie spirited citizens of North Yakima.
The letter speaks for itself and there
Is no questioning the worthiness of the
cause. There is real want and mis-
cry following in the wake of war and
famine among the people of whom
Miss Wylie writes. If there is a re-
Spouse to this appeal on the part of
any of the residents of North Yakima
or Of Yakima valley the Herald will
be very willing to receive the contri-
buttons and will see that the amounts
are forwarded to Miss Wylie where
they may be made available to meet
the needs of the hour there and aid
to relieve the want and misery that
seem everywhere apparent.

TEN YEARS OF FAITHFUL sERv,
ICE

In our fellow townsman, Mr.. c. r.
Donovan, the retiring treasurer of
North Yakima. the people of this city
recognize a man of true worth and
loyalty to duty.
While many cities and localities the
country over have been much exer-
cised over the Irregularities of their
officials, this city has rested secure
in the assurance that all which came
under the care and keeping of Mr..
Donovan would be properly conducted
and safe guarded to the limit of his
ability; and it is with especial pleas
ure that the Herald joins with all the
people in complimenting the retiring
treasurer for his long service well
performed, and further recognizing
the example of faithfulness for all
who shall come after.

what he wants. You may be able TO
fool part of the consumers all of the
time and all of the consumers part of
the time, but you cannot repeat either
one of the processes What the buy
ers want and the demand comes from
their customers, is a dependable pro-
duct and whatever fruit section of the
Pacific Northwest cultivates that habit
and builds up and sustains reputa-
ton for producing that product, that
section will have no need to search
for market The demand that will
come to them will take all their avail
able marketable product.
Success or failure in the matter of
growing fruit for commercial pur-
poses will depend almost wholly upon
the brands of standard quality that
the valleys and localities maintain.
Having fixed High Quality" brand
on the public mind the question of
paramount interest is the fight to
maintain it.

OUR GLAND SHOW" REPUTATION

One of our New Years resolutions
should be that we must line UP to
sustain our land show reputation.
The victories that North Yakima
scored at New York, Chicago and St
Paul have given Yakima valley a ma
tion-wide reputation for producing
quality fruit. 1t should be the object
ami aim of every grower and shipper
of. the valley 10 help make good that
reputation during the year.
The question of ready markets and
commanding prices depends upon
quality more than on any other one
thing. Yakima won this year on merit
and under the keenest competition
and deserved the recognition that was
given to this section. But the COM
petition will be just as keen
henceforward and forever and it Will
he necessary, If we maintain the adj
vantage that we have fairly won, to
make a strenuous fight to maintain
ducing product that has no superior
in the world.
1t is with this end in view that
there is the need for cooperation on
the part of the growers to foster ana
maintain an organization that not
only will encourage the growing and
marketing of fruit of high quality
but will insist that that grade and
no other be sent out to the markets.
Such an organization is looking out
for ways and means to improve the
selection of stock and the grading and
packing processes that will prepare
1t for the market.
The ultimate consumer is the man
that has to be pleased. He wants
what he wants and when he pays the
price he must be assured that he gets

Than the Male Of Her Species Is
Proven at the Yakima
Poultry Exhibit
SHE is A BETTER WORKER
AND LESS VOCIFEROUS
White, Black, Buff, Red and Parti-
Colored Birds at Masonic Tenn
pie Must Delight Eye of the
Fancier

The female of her species is less
noisy than the male. That is an alb
solute fact and may be learned by any
person in Yakima county who will
this week attend the poultry show,
which is now in progress in the Ma
sonic temple. The female of her spe-
cies is less pretty than the male as
well as less noisy. This is true at
least, IL coloring, bearing, and the art
of attracting attention are taken into
account. If dignity, simpleness, I'M
obtrusiveness. are what the visitor
likes, then the male must be over
looked. Also if industry is taken into
consideration must the male be passed
by as being of less value than the fe-
male of his specie, for while he calls
and calls to the lodge room above,
the deliberate lady of his fancy quiet
ly sits down and lays an egg.
Chance for Eggs
II one is chicken fancier and has
no scruples he can acquire a few good
eggs at the chicken show. All he need
to do is to stand in front of a row OF
birds of his choice and gather in the
eggs as they are laid. He must hus-
tie about it, however, for If observa-
ton goes for anything there are al
ready few gatherings on the ground.
Incidentally it may be said that not
all chicken show eggs will hatch, but
some of them will. @. E. p.
Close Contests
There will be some excitement at
the Masonic Temple this week but il
will be confined to the select few
who know birds. In white Orping-
tons, for instance, there is a fine dis
play we'll split up among number
of exhibitors. each with few birds
and most of them good. In the Rhode
Island Reds also there is big class
and to the uninitiated they look all
alike. The Judge may see big differ
ences, but If he does he will need to
look close. The Barred Rocks, which
have been a neglected bird here. are
yearly becoming more popular as is
demonstrated by the fact that there
are some eighteen cockerels in the
cockerel class and half dozen of
them might fairly expect to win In
any good show The honors will be
worth something.
Stock Is Choice
Any person who has ever owned a
Black Langshan. has learned to love
the breed and there is a bigger dis
play of those birds than has ever be-
fore been seen here. Langshans grow
nice in Yakima. But these are Just a

few of the good things. There are

ational reputation; of Wyandottes. in
Guiding the conquering heroes and
heroesses from the Linse yards, just
returned from Tacoma; of Minor

The chicken show will be open daily
the balance of this week from 3
o'clock a. m. until 8 o'clock p. m. The
judging will begin bright and early
today and the awards will be posted
as fast as determined.

TRIAL OF THE BEEF BARoNs

If 1t serves no other purpose the
progress in Chicago, will certainly en-
tighten the public as to the methods
of the beef trust. Their attorney has
admitted that when the price dropped
in any city the packers withheld the
supply Of beef intended for that city
until the price went up again. Wher-
ever the demand was strong and the
price high the packers Hooded the
market with beef and in this way
made unusual profits.
Even the contention of the packers
that for two years, from May, 1896,
to May 1898, there was no pooling of
interests has been refuted. Inc at
torney for the defense was sure about
this period of virtue. For two long
years, he said, there had been moth
ing doing in the bination line.
This seemed too good to be true And
it was. The Government produced a
letter written by the positive attorney.
Under date of June 20, 1897, he had
written to william d. Miles, then head
of the Armour Packing company of
Kansas City, informing him that the
Armour, Cudahy, Swift and four other
big packing companies had that very
afternoon reached an agreement as to
the amount of beef each should ship
to Chicago during the current week.
The same letter carried orders to reg
.ulate the shipments to Boston. An
other interesting bit of information
was conveyed in paragraph that read
as follows:
at was also agreed that parties in
interest would endeavor to obtain
from the current week margins of SO
cents"
Who. says that the law of supply
and demand Is dead letter? 1t is
nothing of the kind. 1t is merely a
once-fractious horse that some clever
tanners have broken to harness.

BLOCKING WALL STREET CON.
troll

The domination of Wall Street in
national finance is to be broken if
the plans of the Monetary commits
sion as now drafted are carried out
in legislation that looks toward mon
etary reform There is plan for a
national reserve association, CEN
tral bank, but the main objection
has been that such an institution
would soon be dominated by Wall
street and practically owned by the
New York fnanciers.
The plan of control worked out by
the commission and which will be
presented in its report to congress
now about ready will present scheme
for central association an institu-
ton which will largely suppla,nt the
the functions of a national fiscal agent.
To distribute the control of this in
stitution and take all possible chance
from the New York financial institu-
tons it is proposed to give New York
less than ten per cent of the total
representation il the central as
sociation although they present 30
per cent of the nations banking cap
ital.
The south with about ten per cent
of the banking resources of the coun-
try would control % per cent of the
representation in the reserve assocla-
ton. New England win furnish IL
per cent of the banking capital, would
have eight per cent, and the Far
Western and Pacific states with about
10 per cent of the banking capital
would be given practically rs per cent
of the control of the reserve, and the
Middle West the remainder

Citations are outside of New York and

been done in fact to devise a plan to
reform the monetary system of the
country to meet known weaknesses
and still preserve the system free from

be presented to congress and the de-
bates on the bill will further illum-
mate the plan Nothing more wide
reaching will be attempted during the

COOPERATION AMONG FRUIT
GROWERS

With the results of the state Hor-
cultural association meeting fresh in
mind there Is a feeling among the del
egates that more was accomplished Ia
further the interests of the industry
than at any prior meeting in the his
tory Of the association. The class of
men brought to the convention by the
management of the association estab-
lished a new high standard for it IS
conceded that the expert horticulture
alists that addressed the meeting this
year and that took part in the dis
cussion represented a higher stand
ard. OF excellence than has ever before
been attempted.
The delegates return to their HON es
with new interest and new ideas as to
methods and management These
have been formed from the discus
siona following the addresses of the
experts who were brought to the
meeting for special lectures, the dis
cushions of which from the other
prominent growers present made up a
a program of great excellence and of
material benefit to those present. 1t
il from this source that the delegates
gained tho information that they will.
find Invaluable in the progress OF their
business.
1t is estimated also as result grew
ing out Of the meeting of the associa-
ton that there will be a close cooper
alton of all the members Of the asso-
citation to forward the horticultural
interests of the state by some very
necessary legislation. The ill-treat-
ment received by the horticultural de-
partment at the hands Of the legisla-
ture still rankles in the mind of the
fruit growers and complaints along
that line were freely voiced at the
convention. 1t is stated that at the
present time the report of the horti-
cultural commissioner for the year
1910 remains imprinted because OF
the lack of funds to perform the work
of inspection has been crippled be-
cause Of insufficient funds with which
to enforce the laws.
The delegates at the convention
representing practically every part OF
the state, took counsel together and
the result of that counsel will mature
a sentiment which coming up to the
next meeting with the legislature Their
in session will ripen into such demand
as will bring pressure to bear on the
legislative body to force the enactment
OF such laws and the appropriation If
such sums of money as will make the
horticultural department one of the
most efficient in the state. 1t is for
the protection of one of the state IS
greatest industries and no part of the
state administrative machinery is
charged with graver responsibilities.
1t is only through cooperation of all
the growers in close organization that
these things can be accomplished.

JIM RILEY

So Riley's writ us his last line? He
says he'll write no more;
They say he's simply waitin' now 10
cross the Shadow Shore.
He's driftin' lords the valley where
the light is gittin' dim,
An pretty soon the angels will be
reachin' down for him.
1t makes me mighty heartsick, and
my eyelids overflow
To hear 'em whsperin' the news that
Riley's got to go
An leave this world he's helped to
bless an make better place,
Jest by his homely rhymes that cheer
an brighten ev'ry face.
There's nothin' hifalutin in the
rhymes that Riley's writ,
But somehow there is somethin' in
his lines that make a hit.
He gifts right down to common folks
the kind like me an you,
An tells things in a manner that Jest
grips yer heartstrings, too.
He makes us better naybers to fergit
an to forgive,
An shows to us the nobler things for
which we orter live.
They amt no preacher anywhere kin
serminize the way
That OF Jim Riley's jingle do, no mat
ter what he'll say.
The time our little Marthy died
say, but We missed the child!
An seemed like me an mother never
could git reconciled
Ontil we read poem that Jim Rifle,
writ one day
That said the baby wasn't dead, but
simply Just away
An then we turned our faces lords
the heaven-land above,
Where. with her little hands ous.
stretched, awaits the one we love
An we could look beyond the grave
an dream about the time
We'd meet, exactly in the way tina,
Riley told in rhyme.
Seems like he should be spared to us
at least them is my views,
To keep a-cheerin' up the world an
drivin' off the blues,
An maxim folks acquainted with
each other everywhere,
An drawn 'em together so their
troubles they could share.
l reckon when I'm called to go acros.
to that far shore,
An views its glories an to share its
blessin's evermore,
That Wlap I'Ec met uffh lxfth
