Leave In Summer.

For many years the poorer people
of Rhodes, especially the villagers
have been in the habit of leaving the
island regularly during the summer
months in search of work. Most OF
these temporary emigrants, number ing
1000 to 5000 annually. return in
the fall, but certain number stay
away permanently. In recent years
there has been steadily increasing
emigration movement, especially to
the United states, Argentina. Abyss

these emigrants are artisans or la

the various schedules of the bill. its re-
port to the majority members OF the
committee and the final completion OF
the bill by the committee. Then. be-
fore the report is made to the senate,
the Democratic caucus will De held
and the bill gone over carefully and
perhaps amended.
Schedules Expected to Stand.
The Democrats from the Western
States which are vitality interested In
wool and beet sugar, and those from
Louisiana. interested in cane sugar.
will be permitted to thrash out the
matter of free wool and free sugar
in the caucus. Every opportunity will
be given them to present their side OF
the questions. 1t is the opinion to-
day, however. that these schedules will
not be changed by the committee, or
by the caucus. And when the caucus
has passed upon the measure. 1t is be-
lieved that the Democratic senators.
with the exceptions of the Louisian-
ians viii stand firmly for the measure.
In other words. they are invited to
make their fight in the caucus for
any amendments which they consider
Just, and when the bill reaches the
open senate to stand solidly for 1t
against the Republicans. OF course.
the Louisiana senators are not ex-
pected to vote for the measure IL II
provides for free sugar at the end OF
three years, as 1t does at present.
Democrats in Saddle.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Democratic majority is small in the
senate. there being only fifty-one
Democrats as opposed to the forty
four Republicans and one Progressive,
and that this majority Is made still
smaller from the fact that the two
Louisiana senator's will vote with the
Republicans against the bill on ac-
count of the sugar schedule, 1t APP
pears at present that the majority is
better in line for a big tariff fight
than has been any majority in the
senate in recent years during tariff
legislation.
The leaders are pleased with the re-
suit of the vote taken Friday on the
question as to whether public hearings
should be given by the finance COM
nittee on the tariff bill. which was
opposed by the Democratic members
of the committee. On this important
vote the entire Democratic strength
of the senate was united against the
proposition, with the exception of the
two Louisiana senator's The Demo-
cratic senators are showing a dispo-
sition to fight out the contested points
in caucus and then abide by the eau
Gus decision.
An interesting development in the
wool situation, which was being COM
mented on by the leaders today, is
the attitude of Senator Walsh, Of
Montana, a Democrat, who Is advo-
eating a revenue duty on wool. He
has again shown signs of kicking over
the party traces. and has notified
Democratic members of the finance
committee that II an amendment is
offered In the senate TO put a duty
on wool he will be compelled to vote
for it regardless Of the attitude that
the caucus may take.

Senator Newlands is expected to
follow his example. and there may
be other Democratic senators from

MUST MAKE DEPOSIT
ON SCHOOL BOOKS

A new ruling has been made by
the school board which aims to in
sure better care of text books and
to prevent loss from carelessness anG
loss of books where children move
out of town without turning in
their text books. The ruling is tc
the effect that children below and
including the sixth grade will have
to deposit half dollar before text
books will be issued to them, while
those in the seventh and eighth
grades and in the high school will
have to deposit dollar. A receipt
will be issued to the child by the
teacher and the deposit will be re-
turned, less the amount of text book
fines, when the pupils books are
returned to the teacher in good con-
dition. The receipts are returnable
to the school authorities at the time
the refund is made, but in case of a
lost receipt, stubs and the teachers
records will show that the pupil is
entitled to his refund.

a great cut-price sale will be inau-
gurated at the big store, to last until
Tuesday evening, the 18th. land dur
ing this sale six per cent of the
gross receipts will be given to the
churches.
This generous offer is all the more
extraordinary in that there is no re-
strictions or conditions attached to
the gift. 1t is a simple free-will
offering of a sum which Mr.. Sherk
conservatively estimates at $3.50, as
he figures that the receipts during
the sale will easily average $500 per
day.
Each ten-cent purchase during
the contest entities the buyer to one
vote. The ballots are dropped into
boxes located conveniently at the
front of the store and each evening a
committee of ladies from the various
churches will count the votes. A

KENNEWICK GRADS GoING HIGHER

Gilmour Dobie, football coach at
the University of Washington, and
famous for having turned out
championship teams every year
since 1908, was in Kennewick the
first of the week. He had been at
Pasco visiting his friend, DR..
O'Brien, and incidentally scouting
for promising football material.
Hearing that there were some
h usky high school graduates on this
side of the river he came over and
called on Marvin Carnahan, who
has been tower of strength on the
local eleven during the past two
seasons, urging him to select the U.
of w. as his field of future study.
Marvin had already decided upon
the University and will leave next
week to take the course in electrical
engineering. HE will be accompan-
led by Irving Peckenpaugh who will
enter the class in pharmacy. Floyd
Bowers will also leave shortly to
enter the law school at the Uni
versity of Idaho and Arnold Bur-
master will finish his high school
work at North Central in Spokane.

GORDON CUP ARRIVES

One of the prettiest silver trophy
cups that will be awarded as prize
at the Grape Carnival, was received
this week from Gordon & Ferguson,
St. Paul, and is now on exhibit in
the window of the Kennewtck
Clothing Co.
A telegram from the Great North
ern Railway company announces
that their silver cup is on the way.
which together with the handsome
contribution from the Northern Pa
cific Railway company, may be seen
at the Commercial Club.
A most unfortunate error was
made by the engravers OF the
Northern Pacific cup, the inscription
reading for the Kennewick Grape
Carnival, instead Of the Columbia
River Valley Grape Carnival, the
official name of the organization,
and as the time intervening is so
limited, it was thought best by the
N. P. immigration officials who
were in Kennewick last week, with
whom the matter was taken up, to
put it out in its present form rather
than attempt correction which
would unquestionably detract from
the beauty of the cup, as a plate
would have to be especially made
necessitating return of the cup to
St. Paul. This cup will be offered
| for the best individual display OF
grapes, aud it goes without saying
that the fortunate winner, whether
he be an up-river or local resident,
will prize this beautiful trophy none
the less because of it's unofficial in
scription.
