uncertain to count for contin-
ued gains. Kennewick worked
the forward pass for good gains
several times but relied chiefly
on the line plunging Of the back
field. Lincoln, the husky half,
was perhaps the most consistent
ground gamer. Johnson played
q good, steady game at full and
showed up especially strong in
his toe work.
The two teams were very ev-
enly matched and the game was
q scrappy one from start to fin
ish. The high school students
were out in a bunch to root for
their team but there was but a
sorry sprinkling of townspeople
along the side lines.

A Colored Philosopher

One hot July afternoon Rastus
Johnson, gentleman of color, and his
family of nine, who depended almost
entirely on the town for support,
started away from home, all logged
out in their best, each carrying a
supply of eatables. One Of their BEN
efactors happened to meet them on
the road.
"Well, Uucle Rastus, where are you
going with all your family so dressed
up?" he asked.
"Well, boss" said Rastus, "doan'
you know the circus am come to

A Difficult Choice

Mr.. Plowdon, the well known Lon
don magistrate, who has just retired
from the bench, has great repertoire
of good stories.
His favorite one relates to a case
in which he appeared as counsel. In
the course of this case he had to cross
examine the wife Of notorious burg
lar.
"You are the wife of this man." he
asked.
II am" she replied.
You knew he was burglar when
you married him." he proceeded.
II did," she admitted.
"How could you possibly marry
such MANI" Mr.. Plowdon demanded.
"Well, it was like this" the witness
explained confidentially. 81 was get
ting old, and two chaps wanted to
marry me. 1t wasn't easy to choose
between 'em, but in the end l mar
ried Bill there. The other chap was
a lawyer, same as you, sir"

RABBIT DRIVE

Ranchers in the Attalia-Two
Rivers country have extended
invitation to Kennewick hunters
to join them next Sunday in an
other raid on the jackrabbits.
Several local men took part in
the roundup two weeks ago
and report some real sport. Ow-
ing to some mistaken. plans
many of the rabbits escaped last
time but clean sweep is ex-
pected next Sunday.
There will be three divisions,
one from Walla Walla one from
Kennewick and one from Pasco.
They will meet at Two Rivers
and the drive will close on the
p. L. Wells farm. The Spanish
American war veterans will
have charge.

KENNEW|CK WINS
FROM PROssER Team
Local High School Boys Score
Two Touchdowns to Their
Opponents One

Despite the fact that the Pros.
ser high school football team
rushed the ball over for a touch
down in the first few minutes
of play the local players took
a brace and converted losing
game into victory on the Ken
newick grounds last Saturday
afternoon. The final score was
IL to Z in favor of the home
boys.
Kennewick secured the kickoff
and did not again secure poses
sion of the ball until it had been
carried over their goal for Pros
ser's only touchdown. The score
was made by series of forward
passes which for time had the
Kennewick players guessing.
After Prosser had secured their
touchdown and kicked goal the
Kennewick lads found their
stride and by a series of line
plunges and forward passes car
ried the ball steadily toward the
opponents goal. The first quar-
ter ended with the ball in Ken
newick's possession and within
a foot of Prosser's goal line.
At the opening of the second
quarter Lincoln carried the pig
skin over for Kennewick's first
touchdown. johnson missed goal
and the score was 6 to z in Pros
ser's favor.
The local team continued their
offensive work and be
fore the quarter ended, Lincoln
had again crossed Prosser's line.
Johnson's kick again went wild
"
and the score was IL to z in
Kennewick's favor.
During the second half the
odds switched back and forth
between the two teams with the
ball in Kennewick's possession
most Of the time At different
times both goals we're in danger
but fortune favored the defend
ing team at critical times and
there was no more tallying.
Prosser was unable to pierce
Kennewick's line for consistent
gains and resorted to frequent
forward passes which were too !

DILIGENT OFFICIAL

Whatever criticism may be
made Of Mayor Richardson, it is
due to him to say that it is the
general opinion that he has been
diligent in the discharge of his
official duties.
He has attended every meet
ing of the city council since TAX
ing the oath of Office, has made
himself familiar with conditions
of the city past and present and
seems to comprehend it's future
urgent needs. He does not hes
itate to perform any service he
deems Of advantage to the city
even though it costs him time
and money. This was especial
ly shown in his effort to secure
from the county commissioners
for the city streets, fifteen per
cent Of the money collected from
the city for the general road and
bridge fund. In this effort he
was successful in securing $2O7O
without one cent Of expense to
the city.
It would seem that he has not
at all times had the cooperation
of the majority of the council.
There is little doubt but that he
will be reelected and it is hoped
that the new council when or
gained will give such support |
as will make his coming admin !
istration meet the public need
as outlined in the declaration
which appeared in last weeks
issue of this paper.

economically as a fair degree of
civic pride will permit.
We believe that, so far as pos
sible, we should have the work
upon our streets done by resi-
dents and taxpayers of Kenne-
wick.
1t is our pledge to the people
of Kennewick, that if elected we
will honestly discharge the du-
ties of the Offices to which we
are elected to the best of our
ability, and will seek to do what
will be of the greatest benefit to
the City of Kennewick. We will
give to the City the benefit of
our best judgment, and will give
fair consideration to the wishes
of our citizens.
Finally, it has been repeated
~ stated that the condition of
our streets, and want of public
improvement was a disgrace.
We challenge any citizen to
point to any city in eastern
Washington of the same popu-
lation which has as much terri
tory benefited by public i'm
provements, or has streets in
better condition; yet it is our
purpose, if elected, to further
improve our streets and our con-
dition to the extent that our
financial condition will justify.

Kennewick, Nov. 5, 1914
To the Voters of Kennewick:
We, the undersigned, candi-
dates for mayor and councilmen,
being aware that our purposes
and intentions have been mis-
represented to the people, and
believing that the voters are
entitled to know our positions
upon public questions, do de-
clare:
1t is our intention, if we are
elected, that the City shall re-
ceive a full dollar in value for
every dollar spent from the City
funds. That it be expended for
the purpose for which it was
levied and collected.
It is unlawful for the city
council to expend more money,
or contract Indebtedness for a
larger amount than provided for
in their annual budget. 1t is
easy for a citizen or an official
to unjustly criticise the men,
bers of the council for not vio-
lating the law, but the members
of the council, only, are liable if
they do violate the law and not
the persons insisting upon the
unlawful expenditures.
It has been repeatedly stated
that we are opposed to public i'm
provements. The statement
was not true. We are in favor
of improving Second street, and
other streets in the best and
most practicable manner, after
careful investigation, so far as
the means available will allow.
We favor any local Improvement
that a majority of the affected
property owners petition for,
but do not favor forcing upon |
the people an indebtedness |
which they are unable to paw. |
and such as will brighten home
seekers and investors away
from our city.
We are firmly opposed to
neaping a burden upon the cit
zens and taxpayers of Kenne-
wick by plunging into debt, and
an ever increasing bur
len OF interest, and inasmuch as
such assessments and taxes are
already more than a large por-
Ion OF the people are able to
'ay, we believe it necessary to
'un the affairs of the city as

WomaA Fell From Balloon.

About the only misadventure in bal
looming in America is an occasional
and not repeated-fall with a para
chute that failed to open. AS the usual
thing. of course, an amateur landing is
made without the spectacular leap by
the expedie4J of letting out gas until
the bag cones more or less gently to
the earth.
In attempting landing of this sort
near Municli recently q Swiss balloon
ist fell out OF the car. This caused the
balloon to seascend rapidly with a
woman hanging half out Of the car.
One of the raen in the basket was en-
gagged with the ropes, trying to let out
more gas, while the other grasped the
woman and held her. Overpowered by
the strain, he finally let go of her and
she fell COO feet to earth. The balloon
was brought down almost Immediately
by the pilots, both Of whom went in q
motor car and picked up her body.
