little more settled and it was possible
to determine just what changes have
been brought about by water compe-
tition, he expectd to ask one of the
traffic officials to come to Kennewick
and, if possible, spend several days
here in fully explaining traffic mat
tiers to the shippers. He further as
sured his hearers that if the opening
Of the Columbia had created new pos
sibilities for building up a distribut-
ing center here he would cooperate
with the people in utilizing to the full
est every advantage thus secured.
In this connection Mr.. Tyler said,
Remember this: advantages within
themselves will never build up city.
They must be utilized. You must go
after all you get. Neither will cheap
freight rates build a distributing CEN
ter. Facilities often count for more
than rates. st. Paul has water trans
portation but Minneapolis above the
falls has played rings around her in
commercial way. Just so the town
that will reap the benefits from the
open river will be the town that has
the best traffic facilities to Offer"
w. A. Story, formerly Of Tacoma,
but now interested with F. ]. Arnold
in the Kennewick Wholesale Grocery
company, also spoke, saying that he
believed Kennewick was the logical
distributing center for the Inland EN-
pire. His company, he said, were now
shipping goods by boat from San
Francisco to Kennewick at very sat-
isfactory rate, but they were handi-
capped in distribution because Of the
high distributive rate out of Kenne-
wick.

In addition to making the survey
for the ten miles of proposed road Mr..
Boetzkes is assembling the profiles
of the other improved stretches Of
road from Finley to Prosser and will
recommend that they BE accepted BY

BLIGHT SITUATION
most ALARMING
Something Must be Done to Stir
Up. the People, Says High
land Orchard Owner

Sunless every orchard owner in this
district gets up in arms now and be-
gins the battle against blight, every
pear tree and lot Of the apple trees
are going to be ravaged by this dis
ease," said VIM. Kenyon, of the High
lands this afternoon. Fright today
blight is raging in the Highland or
chards like prairie fire. Its spread
is almost as rapid and its destruction
almost as complete. When I left home
today crew of blight fighters were
saving of, at the ground, fine young
pear trees in which no trace Of blight
could be found three weeks ago and
trees which were apparently healthy
yesterday are showing blighted twigs
today.
"Don't spare the ink" continued Mr..
Kenyon. "Put scare head clear
across the front page, because I want
to tell you the orchard industry of
this section is facing disaster right
now unless the farmers become thor
oughly aroused and make the fight of
their lives. If there are any who
have any doubts, as to the ravages Of
the disease, let him visit some of the
wrecked orchards on the Highlands.
Any orchardist who doesn't know
blight when he sees it and will not
take the trouble to become informed
concerning it, is inviting ruin upon
himself and upon his neighbors."
For the purpose Of teaching the
farmers how to detect blight and how
to stop its spread, a public demonstra-
tion will be held next Saturday morn
ing at 10 o'clock in the N. p. I COM
pany's 40-acre orchard on the High
lands just east Of the domestic water
reservoir. Horticultural I n spector
Luke Powell, Prof. VIM. Meikle and
others will be there to instruct all
those who are willing to learn. As
many business men as possible are
urged to be, present as the situation
may get beyond the control of the
orchardists and it may become. neces-
sary to call on the business men to
assist in the light.
Last year the business men Of Pros
ser, for weeks, left their stores every
morning and went into the orchards
to cut blight. Such drastic measures
may become necessary here If the or
chards are to be saved.

MONEY ENOUGH TO
SURFACE HIGHWAY
Engineer B0etzkes Will Attempt
to Have State Complete Road
to KiOna and Benton City

Engineer H. w. Boetzkes and his
crew Of workers completed the SUR
vey Of the proposed permanent high
way from Richland to Kiona Saturday
and have moved their outfits to Wal
lula from where they are running lines
for state highway to Touchet.
In speaking of the survey just COM
pleted in this county, Mr.. Boetzkes
said he had not yet prepared his es-
Inmates but he was Of the opinion that
the $34,336 apportioned to this county
by the legislature would be sufficient
to build good road provided the right
of way is furnished by the county.
"The state has been following the
plan of doing only the grading on the
state highways, and leaving surfacing
to the countless" said Mr.. Boetzkes.
"This plan of construction has been
more generally satisfactory than any
ever followed by the state. AS a rule
the surfacing is not done until some
time after the grade is completed
and where there are any heavy cuts
and fills the grade is allowed to settle
and much better highway is the re-
suit. In the case of the road from
Richland to Kiona, there are reasons
why the states plan should be de-
waited from. In the first place but
little grading will be necessary and
there will be no heavy cuts or fills to
settle The soil is so light that the
finished grade would soon be cut to
pieces if allowed to remain unsurfaced
and this stretch of road would be very
difficult of travel during the summer
months. In the second place it is
evident that there will be no funds in
the county for surfacing the road for
some time to come. The grade can
be constructed for much less than the
amount apportioned to this county.
In fact believe that by narrowing the
road from 16 to 10 or IL feet both the
grading and surfacing can be done
out of the funds now available. 1t is
with this end in view that / am pre-
paring my estimates. It shall be my
aim to make the $34 1886 build good
spread gravel road that can be con-
veniently and comfortably travelled at
all seasons of the year."
The survey for the road has been
made from the middle bridge over the
Yakima to Kiona where it will cross
the river to connect with the new road
west from Benton City. An effort is
now being made by the people of Ben
ton City to secure bridge across the
Yakima below the O-W. crossing, thus
giving direct route into Benton City.
In making the survey, Mr.. Boetzkes

NORTON IN RACE FOR &.

Devils Lake, N. D., May 5.-1nterest
on the part of the northern section of
the state in the coming campaign for
the United States senatorship was to-
day given additional impetus by the
publication of the fact that Cong. P d.
Norton Of the Third district had &C.
cepted an invitation to deliver an ad-
dress at the Devils Lake chautauQua
on, one of the biggest days of the ap-
preaching summer session. The possi-
bility of Norton's entry into the sena-
torial race in opposition to Senator
McCumber, present incumbent, and to
Governor Hanna has been widely dis
cussed in this section of North Da-
kota, where Norton spent his boyhood
and early manhood and where he first
entered politics as an "insurgent" just
prior to the historic Jamestown con-
vention in 1906.

Fargo Daily Says Young Is
Able and Honest Wants
to Have Him Sent Back
to Congress.

Fargo Courier-News: Some of the
newspapers in the STATE have Deer
proposing various candidates for
gubernatorial honors. Many progress
sive Republicans seem to think that
Mr.. Burdick, who was popularity sup
posed to have a leadpipe cinch on the
support of that faction, will be can
didate for the senate, thus throwing
confusion into the ranks both of Mr.
Hanna's and of Senator McCumber's
friends, and therefore that he is not
in the race for governor.
Several esteemed exchanges are
urging Congressman Young of Valley
City to get into the race, and without
doubt he would make a strong cam
paign and if elected, would be a good
governor. He is a fighter, and a man
of convictions, and he knows how to
, do things. There could be no objec.
ton to him from our point of view.
But we doubt if Mr.. Young aspires
in that direction. He carried his dis
trict last election by an overWhelm-
ing majority and against the dirtiest
fight that the Bismarck Tribune and
others of it's ilk could wage. Evident
ly he can remain in congress if he
wishes.
And why is not that best for him
and for the state? 1t takes several
years for any congressman to learn
the ropes and to gain influence
enough to accomplish things. Mr..
Young's standing is excellent; his rec
ord is the best. We are in perilous
times and no man knows when our
country may become involved in the
terrible wars now raging. Information
al difficulties menace us. There is no
place where patriotic, honest men are
more needed, none where they can
be more useful to the state and the
nation than in the position he now oc-
cupies.
Moreover, with the evident expecta-
ton of the reactionaries that they will
return to power, it seems wise to take
no chances in changing congressman
when we have one who represents his
district and state faithfully and who
is progressive. With all due respect
to the possibilities of the governor
ship for usefulness, the Courier-News
believes and hopes that Mr.. Young
will decide to stay at his present job
