BAPTIST ARRANGE TWO
WEEKS SPECIAL MEETINGS
George Robert Cairns, Noted Pastor
Evangelist Coming to kennewick
for Two Weeks

The local Baptist church is fortu.
nate in securing DIR. Robert Cairns,
pastor of the Central Baptist church
Of Spokane, to assist them in series
of special meetings to be held at the
Congregational church beginning
Monday, Feb. "a, and continuing
for two weeks.
DR.. Cairns is a pastor whose evan
gelistic gifts have caused him to be
called to lead in special meetings in
most of the large cities of the United
States and in England and Scotland.
DR.. Cairns will speak at 7:3O p.
m. every week night except Satur-
day and give Bible lectures at 2:3O
p. M. Tuesday to Friday inclusive
of each week. The subjects for the
first week will be as follows: Tues
day, docs God Answer Prayer? If
not, why not?" Wednesday, How
May We Know We are saved?"
Thursday, 'The Spirit Filled Life"
Friday. THE Well Equippe d
Worker.''
While these meetings are arranged
by the Baptist church, cordial in.
vitation is extended to all to join in
them. All singers are asked to be
on hand promptly at 7:30 p. m.
and help the choir lead in the song
service.
DR.. Cairns has received many
testimonials from the pastors of the
churches where he has labored
among them, one from the noted
DR.. F. B. Myer of Christ Church
London. The following resolutions
passed at a meeting of the united
churches of Sheffield, England
shows how his work was blessed
there:
This meeting is constrained to thank
God for his messenger to our churches
in the person of Mr.. George Robert
Cairns. 1t recognizes the ability de-
votion, faithfulness, and the spiritual
power of the missioner, and rejoices in
the wonderful success attending his
labours. Ministers have been stimu-
: lated and encouraged, churches have
been revived, hearts and homes have
been gladdened and frightened, and
hundreds of souls have been brought to
Christ. The meeting prays that yet
richer harvests may be gathered by
Mr.. Cairns, and it cherishes the hope
that Sheffield may again be privileged
with visit from this eminent Christ
ian worker.

counties. The judiciary committee
besides recommending an additional
judge for Spokane county, which
bill has already has been passed by
the house, has taken favorable &C
tion on the bill giving one Judge
each to Grant and Douglas counties,
which now have one Judge for the
two. 1t is believed Benton, Frank
lin and Adams can make fully as
favorable a showing of their need
for a Judge as Grant and Douglas.
BUDGET BILL INTRODUCED
The general budget bill was in
troduced this week and proved
to give increases to almost every
state department and institution.
The University of Washington and
Washington state college each get
5000, 900 more than last session.
The total of the bill ISIS, ,563 ,626.O
nearly s2,5OO,OOO higher than the
general budget bill of two years ago.
However, many items in 1911 were
covered by supplemental budget
so the appropriations proposed this
year will in reality be between ST.
100000 and 81, 500, 900 higher.
The Yakima state fair gets S4O,-
600, as against $4,000 in 1911 but
state aid for the Southwest fair is to
be eliminated. Instead the state
will deed to Lewis county the fair
grounds and allow its operation as
county fair in future.
The state horticultural commits
sioner is allowed S75, 900, the same
as in 1911.

Thirty men from down around Finley
took guns and grub and hiked to the
North Coast bridge Saturday headed
for rabbit drive. The string of men
was spread out like a fan, and the drive
started toward the Snake river, across
the fiat. Some of the fellows who
have never been on a drive before
couldn't resist the temptation to pop
at every bunny that stuck it's ears up
and the consequence was, when the
real good shooting started they were
out of shells. When the line drew
near the river, some two hundred and
fifty rabbits were slain. They had two
coyotes in the Gordon too, but they
managed to slip thru the line just at
the last moment and got away. One
of the fellows who has been on several
drives, stated that this was the first
time that the rabbits ever got so
frightened that they jumped into the
river.

an election for the purpose of choos-

AS Mr.. Mounsey has signified
his willingness to serve again, and
as a better qualified director could

.,oduced in the state senate this
ssek, bill intended to give Ken
.sr;ck the chance to gain the posi-
.;on If county seat of Benton coun-
y. -.
To do this, a constitutional
amendment will be necessary, and
~. amendment the Wende bill
rronoses to submit. The present
constitutional provision is that a 6o
ner cent vote is necessary to take
the seat of county government from
the CITY in which it is located.
The amendment proposed in the
Wende bill would make an excep-
ton of counties in which the seat
was located by legislative enact
ment, In such cases, the bill pro-
vides. a majority of the voters OF
the county in question may select a
new county seat.
The amendment proposed, II
nassed through both houses OF the
legislature by two-thirds vote,
would be submitted to the voters OF
the state at the general election OF
1914. If approved by them, the
amendment would be effective upon
proclamation of this fact by the
governor. A new election could be
held in Benton county to give Ken
4 newick chance to secure the coun-
ty seat in 1915.
The bill has been referred to the
committee on constitution and con-
stitutional revision which is at pre-
sent crowded with other measures.
It has been suggested that the de-
sired change might be made with
rather more ease should the Ander-
son bill, providing a convention to
rewrite in its entirety the state con-
stitution, pass both houses of the
legislature.
WILL INTRODUCE WATER CODE
Although several members of the
Joint committees on irrigation and
arid lands still are said to be op-
posed to the proposed water code
drafted by the Hay commission, the
measure will be introduced as a
joint committee bill. This is for
the purpose of having the proposed
code printed in the form it has
taken since numerous amendments
have been made, and can not be
taken as indicating that the COM
mlttee will be unanimous in its
support.
The joint committees are sup
porting enthusiastically the Wende-
Rowland bills providing that water
power can not be generated in this
state for use in others. An excep-
uon has been made in the cases OF
streams not located wholly within
TINS state. the purpose being to pro-
tect the power companies of Spo-
Kane, which get their power from
'ne Spokane river, which has its
origin In Idaho, and then sell por-
'ion OF the power back to Idaho to
operate the Occur d. Alene mines.
BRIDGE BILL Is DEAD
That there is little or no chance
10 pass the Kennewick-Pasco bridge
Dill at this session, is the opinion
reached by Benton and Franklin
eounty senators and representatives.
ifospects for the bill never were
.ohsldered bright at this session,
po' the hopes are now, since the
. .e"lston-Clarkston bill has met
'a'ofaole treatment, that the Ken.
ne"ick-Pasco affair, which now
neads the waiting list, will be acted
upon at the next session.
