Financial Statement as Submit
ted by Manager M. S. Lewis
Shows Deficit of $235.65
TO BE MET BY LEVY
ON GUARANTEE FIND
Big Falling OF in Queen Contest Re-
ceipts Over Last Year-Gate
Receipts are Bigger

/ A financial statement of the
receipts and expenditures of the
fourth annual Columbia River
Valley Grape Carnival submitted
to the Commercial club at We'd
nesday's luncheon by Mgr. M.
S. Lewis indicates that it will be
necessary to collect small per-
centage of the uncollected por-
ton of the guarantee fund to
meet a deficit of $235.65. At
the close of the Carnival MIR.
Lewis and the executive commit
tee were of the opinion that the
carnival had broken even but
several items of expense have
run considerably more than es-
timated.
In comparison with last year
the statement shows that there
was reduction in the total dis
bursements and a considerable
falling off in receipts. The big
gest difference in any one item
is in receipts of the queen con-
tests. In 1913 the contest net
ter the carnival $1,208, while
this year the net receipts were
but $312.95. Gate receipts this
year were about 500 ahead of
last but the premiums overran
lastgyear's by approximately the !
same amount.
In submitting the report, Mr..
Lewis said the management
would like to have returned to
the club cash balance as last
year but they had no apologies
20 offer as the committee felt
hat it had done it's best and the
expenses had been kept as low
Is possible to insure a successful |;
show. No criticism was offered
~ any member of the club and
he general opinion seems to be
hat the carnival was a success
md well worth the additional {,
um necessary to make it break b
ven.

nitted by Mr.. Lewis follows: !

WATERUSERS'
RIGHTS SAVED
Judge Rudkin DEGREES that Ham
ford Irrigation Contracts
Must be Protected
HAVE PRIORITY OVER
RIGHTS OF MORTGACEE
System of Hanford Irrigation & Pow
er Company Must be Sold Sub
ject to Ranchers' Rights

49, ~ AsnAh~hCAS 1SlButS
The rights of the Hanford-
White Bluffs waterusers under
their contracts from the Han
ford Irrigation & Power com
pany are preserved by a decree
handed down from Judge Rud-
kin's branch Of the federal court
in Spokane Monday. The case
was argued in North Yakima
last week at which time Judge
Rudkin rendered an opinion
which indicated that the formal
decree would give the waterus-
ers all they were asking for,
namely, a protection of their
water contracts which were dis
puted by holders of mortgages
on the irrigation and power pro-
perties.
The case, which is compli-
Gated one, was started by the
American Power & Light COM
pany, of New York, which re-
suited in the appointment Of
receiver for the Hanford Irri-
cation & Power company. After
this action was started the Dex-
ter Horton Bank, trustee for the
security holders, entered a cross
complaint alleging priority of
rights of the mortgages over
the waterusers.
The courts decree recognizes
the waterusers' rights not only
in the irrigation canal but like
wise in the entire system includ-
ing the power sites, the trans
mission line from Priest Rapids,
the shore lands and all the ply
sical properties necessary to the
operation of the irrigation sys-
tenn. This does not mean that |
the waterusers can compel the
operation of the plant and the |
delivery of water but they may
have recourse in damages
against the company for failure
to do so.
In his conclusions, upon which
the decree is based, Judge Rud-
kin recites: That the rights of
the mortgage or trustee are in
feri0r and subordinate to the
rights of such land owners as
have purchased land and water
rights from the irrigation COM
pany. The mortgage did not ex-
Tend to or include these lands
and water rights until after de-
fault, and the right to make
sales of land and water rights
vas expressly recognized in the
mortgage itself. The purchase ]
money went to the trustee or in-
lred to it's benefit and it would K
Tow be inequitable in the ex- 4
rene to permit it to abropate {

RELIEF FROM DYSPEPSIA

All conditions of depressed vitality tend to disturb the processes of digestion. Thereis not disturbed condition of life that may not affect digestion.
 Few causes of indigestion are so com- mon as thin, weak blood. It affects di- rectly and at once the great processes of nutrition. Not only is the action of the gastric and intestinal glands diminished but the muscular action of the stomach is weakened. Nothing will more prompt ly restore the digestive efficiency than good red blood. Without it the normal activity of the stomach is impossible.
 Thin, pale people who complain of in- digestion must improve the condition of their blood to find relief. The most active blood-builder in such cases is Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They make rich, red blood which quickly restores the di- gestive organs to their proper activity and the first result is hunger. The dyspeptic who has hated the sight and smell of food now looks forward tomeal time with pleasurable anticipation. Care now in the selection and quantity of food will put the patient we'll on the road to health. A diet book, "What to Eat and How to Eat" will be sent free on request by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,. Schen- ectady, N. Y. All druggists sell Dr. Vii. Iams' Pink Pills.

OPERA COMPANY
 ON KEENEY BILL

With the Franconia opera company for it's headline attraction, Keeneys this week will offer a strong bill with sufficient diversity in the makeup of the program to satisfy all tastes. The ma na cement is making an earnest effort to give local vaudeville patrons q good summer show. and the fact that the house is taxed to capacity at almost every performance, despite the humidity, is strong enough testi- mony to prove that vaudeville lovers are not unappreciative.
 Besides the vaudeville program ar engagements have been made to give m otion picture plays of exceptional merit. In addition to the comedies and dramas, the management is pro- viding both the Hearst-Selig and the Pathe weeklies, which depict current events and give considerable informa- tion concerning the European con- f1ict. The Hearst-Selig will be shown tonight and the Pathe will be the feature of the motion picture program on Wednesday evening. Thursday and Friday night new episodes in "The Perils of Pauline" will be shown. The Franconia people will offer a repertoire of both popular and classi- cal numbers. There are seven people in the troupe and each is rated as singer of marked talent It is ex- pected that the act will be a big draw ing card.
 The patrons are expected to derive consid erable amusement from the act of Stanley and Stanley. This pair will present rapid-fire rathSkeller speciality in which they have been scoring a distinct hit all season.
 Demitriuse, the famous Grecian poser, will be numbered among the performers. His work has placed him in the front rank of artists and he is in great demand with enterprising vaudeville magnates. Whitlit and Clark will give a singing and dancing turn and the Four Regals, known as the anvil athletes, will make a bid for first honors.

RESINOL STUBS
 SKIN TORRENTS

How This Wonderful Ointment Ends
 Itching and Heals Skin Eruptions.
 The soothing, healing medication in Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap penetrates every tiny pore of the skin, clears it of impurities, and stops itch ing instantly. Resinol speedily heals eczema, rashes, ringworm. and other eruptions, and clears away disfiguring pimples and blackheads, when other Treatments prove a waste of time and money.
 Resinol is not an experiment. It is a doctors prescription which proved so wonderfully successful for skin troubles that it has been used by other doctors all over the country for more than eighteen years.
 No other treatment for the skin now before the public can show such a record of professional approval. Every druggist sells Resinol Ointment (5Oc and $l), and Resinol Soap (25c.) but for trial size, free, write to Dept. XIX, Resinol, Baltimore, Md. Look for the blue package and avoid worthless "sub- stitutes."
