THEN START ROAD WORK
State Asks Assistance of County i'm
Getting Ready for Richland-
Kiona State Highway

1t now seems certain that work on
the state highway between Richland
and Kiona will start as soon as GER
tain rights of way can be secured. At
the last meeting Of the county COM
missioners H. w. Boetzkes was pres
ent to request the assistance of the
county in securing these rights Of way.
After hearing the request the board
ordered the prosecuting attorney and
the county engineer to proceed at once
to secure the needed right of way.
The state highway department has
announced that it is its intention to
do this work during the winter months
when there is more moisture in the
ground. If this work is undertaken
soon, by next spring there will be
good road from Finley to Prosser as
the surfacing of the state road be-
tween Benton City and Prosser will
be completed within the next few
months. This work is to be done un-
der the supervision of w. H. Weh-
meier, of Hanford, who was appointed
by the board to take charge of the
work.

MYSTERY OF MURDER In
FREIGHT CAR NOT SOLVED

The week has brought forth no new
developments in the box car murder
case. Northern Pacific detectives and
county officials have been working
continuously on the case but they have
not yet sufficient evidence to justify
making a charge of guilt against any
of the men taken from the train.
Albert McCalmont is held in the
county Jail at Prosser, Declan Murray
is in the city Jail here and Louie Spon-
ner is still in the city having been
released on his onw recognizance.
Special agent Overstreet of the N.
P. and Sheriff Duffy are here this eve
ming and will probably decide whether
or not the suspects will be released.
No trace Of McCann's. relatives was
found and he was buried in the local
cemetery by Undertaken I. N. Mueller.

PROMISE TO SUPPORT
IRRIGATION PROJECT
Senator Jones and Congressman
LaFOllette are Favorable to
Sunnyside Extension

u. S. Senator Wesley L. Jones and
Congressman William L. LaFollette
were guests of the people of Kenne-
wick Monday. Congressman LaFol-
lette arrived Sunday night and spent
the entire day in the city but it was
impossible for Senator Jones to be
here only during the evening.
While the federal lawmakers were
in the city, the irrigation committee
of the Commercial ssclpp 9aid before
them general outline Of the pro-
posed Kennewick extension of the
Sunnyside canal which will bring un-
der irrigation 10000 acres of fertile
lands tributary to this city. It was
explained to both Senator Jones and
Congressman LaFollette that the pro-
posed extension is not new project
but a part of the original Yakima
Reclamation project and as such it
should receive consideration ahead OF
any proposed new projects.
Congressman LaFollette during the
forenoon was taken for short auto
mobile over the Highlands from where
he could get a good general view of
the lands to be irrigated. Senator
Jones arrived too late for the auto
trip but he had been over the terri
tory many times and is thoroughly
familiar with soil and climatic condi-
tions and the general topography Of
the land under the proposed extension.
Both Are Favorable
Both men promised to use their eff
forts to have the survey of this pro-
ject provided for in the next reclama-
tion bill. Senator Jones explained,
however, that congress had but little
to do with this bill other than to pass
it lust as it is submitted by the recla-
nation department. The reclamation
fund is distinct from other funds and
appropriations for reclamation work
must come from the reclamation fund
and not from the general treasury as
in the case of the rivers and harbors
and other appropriations. In other
words the reclamation work OF the
government must pay its own way.
For this reason Senator Jones sug-
gested that the Commercial club take
up the question of survey with the
officials of the reclamation service
and urge that they include this item
in their annual estimates. If this is
done it will be an easy matter to get
the appropriation through congress.
An estimate of $4,000 for the exten-
sion survey was included in last years
bill which called for a total expendi-
ture of about $s,OO0,OOO. There was
available in the reclamation fund only
about $4,000, 900 and consequently sew
eral of the items had to be dropped.
The Senator asked that he be fur
nished with complete data after he
goes to Washington and promised to
do everything possible to secure the
survey.
