essentially true there are certain
important characteristics that are
common to all. Skirts must flare.

The high and convertible collars are

ing department of the new Yakima
and Portland railroad, the entire out
put of this great oil dome will be pip
ed to the top of Mt. Adams and from
there shipped by wireless direct to
Germany, beating the bloomin' Hen
glish out of their unholy blockade.
One of these nice Sundays, when
Old Sol is putting down three figures
mot ciphers) in bunch, a jolly par
ty of Kennewickers with some pro-
moters and tender feet, will motor
up to Eldorado to see the beautiful
presto change. As they near their
goal a few old grizzled coyotes, who
are past masters in watchful waiting
will, as they skulk off into the sage
brush, strike in on the chorus Of that
mournful refrain: Empty is the cra-
die; Baby's gone" and some enc viii
be cast into outer darkness and left
to walk home.
Now, friends, in writing this fool
stuff on a subject that know moth
ing of, it is not the intention to be-
little or antagonize any honest ef-
forts that are being made in our
midst to develop the natural resources
of a nearby territory. My object is
to get the people all over this COM
munity to talking and thinking about
these things, for nothing will bring
Kennewick quicker into the lime light
than genuine oil boom. While the
boom itself may be of fleeing ma
ture, the aftermath will bring a per-
manency of good things much to be
desired and every resident Of this re-
gion should lend his moral support in
seeing first that the Rattlesnake
field should be properly developed and
later any other nearby oil field that
looks good to practical oil men.
To correct the general impression
that there is al oversupply of petro-
leum and its by-product, gasoline,
will quote from recent report Oh
Secretary Lane to the u. s. Senate:
In 1904 the u. S. used 100000 bar
rels of gasoline; in 1909 10,800,000
barrels; in 1914, 100000 barrels;
for the present year at least 10000
600 barrels. The output has not kept
pace with the demand. There has
been slump in production of petro-
leum in the Texas and Oklahoma oil
fields of from $3.50 to 500. 1t is cal
culated that the u. S. furnishes $3.50
of the worlds stock of gasoline. Au-
thoritative figures place our total
known resources of petroleum at
about 5,560,000,000 barrels, which
would be enough to supply present.
rate of demand for twenty-three
years, but hope rests as yet on UNI
known oil fields, like Utah, California
Wyoming and Colorado. They are re-
garded as future bases of supply and
it behooves adventurous and chance
loving Americans to get busy and
seek for the hidden wells.

Letters From the People
ANENT THE COMPREHENSIVE
SCHEME"

SCHEME"
Mr.. Editor:
I was much interested in speech
made by you on recent occasion,
wherein you set forth the fact and
made it clear to the audience pres
ent, that this valley had cut out the
''hot air peddling" of the earlier days
and was now making good" from a
practical standpoint. I may have been
mistaken, but I gathered from your
remarks that you were sounding a
'key note" for action in the future in
behalf, at least, of the Commercial
club of Kennewick. Your talk Ger
tainly listened good to me and I feel
very sure that it met with the ap-

on the occasion.
Subsequent events seem to prove
however, that if our Port Commits
sioners were present they did not heed
the spirit of your remarks, at least
it seems hard to square the PROPOSE
ton they have set forth for the ap-
p1 oval of the voters of this port dis
trict at the coming election with the
gist of your speech. At the two hear
ings recently held it was made clear
IS could be to those present that the
Commissioners had no idea of carry
ing out the proposed comprehensive
scheme as set forth, but appear to be
extremely anxious that it be ratified
and approved by the people. The or
ly reason set forth seemed to be that
the law said something about COM
prehensive scheme and this one was
produced by an engineer who made
elaborate comprehensive schemes a
specially.
No one present at those hearings
made any objection to what the Com
missioners said they really wanted to
do, viz: take over the present dock
and fix it up-so there was no argu-
ment about that. The protestants
however, seem to be of the opinion
that the comprehensive scheme should
include only needed repairs on the
present dock and its extension when
necessary. ..s-a.
The proposition to be voted on at
the coming Port election put up
squarely is as follows: Shall we by
vote ratify and commit ourselves to
a comprehensive scheme of such a
magnitude that would not only be far
beyond our port needs but way be-
yond our abilities to pay for in a life
time, or shall we ask the Commission
ers to present a scheme that would
take care Of present dock and neces-
sary extension and keep the expen-
ditures in this direction down to an
amount that we can reasonably hope
to take care of and in line with the
real needs of the near future.
I am not going to ask for lot of
space to argue the port question in,
but isn't it just possible that people
here may conclude that the present
dock with necessary improvements is
about all the donation they wish to
or at least can afford, to make any
transportation company? So far as
have considered the matter I can only
conclude that Kennewick is more de-
pendent on its railroads for future
development, than its boat traffic,
and can see no good reason why she
should tax herself to build terminal
facilities for a boat transportation
company any more than for the erec-
ton of much desired new passenger
depot for the N. p. railroad.
In any case, won't it be soon enough
to take up, endorse and commit our
selves to such a comprehensive scheme
as is set forth, when it can be shown
that there is a reasonable probability
at least Of its being Of any practical
use during the life time Of those liv-
ing here now? Putting the PROPOSE
ton another way, shall we stick to
the tenets of your speech or start of
on tangent that won't get US any
where? r. E. PRATT.

News of the Reform Movement

mysterious nature as two telephone
calls to that city and inquiry from
residents of the parish seat who

According to press reports in the
New Orleans paper a meeting was
held and among the matters decid'
ed upon was the starting of another
weekly paper. 1t is not believed
here that the Reform movement
is a political one because at the
past election the vote in the city
