RICHLAND FESTIVAL
TO SUPPLANT CARNIVAL
Up-River Boosters Propose to Take
Advantage of Kennewick's
Indifference

AT meeting of the Kennewick
Commercial club last week it was de-
clded that they would not hold the
annual Grape Carnival this year. This
decision was reached due to the fact
that the farmers had not shown a CO.
operative and enthusiastic spirit in re-
gard to the matter and the business
men did not feel that they could back
the affair under these circumstances.
Now, it would seem that here is a
chance for Richland to get in her
good work. It is a sure thing that if
there is no competition in Kennewick
now is the time for Richland to get
busy and begin right now to work on
the biggest and best festival ever
pulled off in this district. We can de-
liver the goods as far as exhibits and
attractions are concerned and the only
thing necessary is all to get together
and work together and boost together
for the biggest thing in the line of q
fair that has ever been attempted in q
town and district of this size. What
was done last year, with the competi.
ton of the Grape Carnival in Kenre.
wick, only shows what can be accom-.
plished, and with the added support Of
our near neighbor there is no reason
why we can't have q festival which
will go down in local history as on.
of the big events in the development
of this community.

zACHow MAKES STATEMENT
Richland Farmer Says Horse was Mo-
Overloaded but was Just Balky

Overloaded but was Just Balky
There was reported in this column
last week the trial Of Chas. Zachow in
Justice Howes' court for cruelty to
dumb animals. Mr.. Zachow claims
that the evidence introduced at the
trial does not fairly represent the
facts.
His horse, he says, was not over
loaded nor was the wagon stuck in 9
sandhill, but the animal was balky
In leaving the horse hitched to the wa
gon until it decided to pull he was
following the advice Of experienced
horsemen. The horse, he says, wa:
well fed and we'll cared for.
According to the statement OF Mr.
Zachow the sentence imposed by JUS
tice Howes has been suspended ant
the case dropped, in view OF extenu
ating circumstances which were no
brought out at the trial.

DR.. M. p. Davidson was under the
weather few days the latter part Of
the week, but is out again and able
to attend personally to affairs in con-
nection with the Richland Transfer
company.
H. F. Yedica purchased four fine
maple trees from the Home Nursery
and had them set out along the fence
in front Of his residence in town.
Beautiful shade trees are an attrac'
ton to any property and in an irriga-
ted country they seem doubly beauti-
full when viewed alternately with the
inevitable sage brush. 1t is to be
hoped that more Of the citizens of
Richland will follow Mr.. Yedica's ex-
ample and plant trees around their
homes, not only adding to the beauty
of the premises but providing shade
when the temperature scars around
ITO in the summer. Arbor Day might
well be celebrated in Richland as there
is certainly room for great many
trees on the lawns on the places under
the ditch in town.
]. r. Gardner, one of the largest
and most progressive strawberry
growers, and one of the members Of
the board of directors of the strawber-
nv union, stated to a representative
of this paper that the outlook was
for a very large crop Of berries this
year as he had never seen a finer or
more hardy set Of leaves than each
plant was showing at this time. or
course the berries will be late this
wear on account of the continued cold
weather, but this condition prevails
! in all parts Of the Northwest so that
we will be as far in advance OF the
other districts as ever, even should
the Richland crop not be ready for
market until the latter part of May.
With the best kind Of an organization
for selling this years crop the out
look is very bright for the strawber-
nv grower this season.
! With the first fine sunny weather,
the annual Cleanup Day bug has been
let loose and everyone begins to think
of Kidding his premises of the rubbish
accumulated during the winter. Mayor
} Arbuckle has not yet set aside any
special day for this work but inside OF
: the next week he will probably issue
: notice advising the citizens on which
day he expects their cooperation to-
wards a cleaner Richland. 1t is to be
: regretted that the Woman's Civic
: Improvement club is a thing OF the
, past; the members did good work
. while they We're organized but last
year and so far this year no meetings
: have been held and it would seem that
interest in civic affairs had received
) decided setback. All over the coun-
, try, no matter how small the town, the
!, Woman's Civic Improvement clubs are
' the best and most active factors In
$ bettering home conditions and the wo-
{ men of Richland should Immediately
get busy again and renew the club Sc
that they may be in shape to start
E work when the mayor orders the reg
ular cleanup day.

WALLER FUR FIRST.
 10 f|Lt LOCATION
Legal Fight for Valuable Cannery Site on Boring Sea May Result
 from Great Winter Race.

H. H. Waller, one of the contes- tants in the race for the valuable cannery site on Boring Sea, was the first to reach Juneau and place his location of the ground on record in the land office. His opponent, Alex ander Bradford, has not as yet reach ed Juneau.
 The race started in Seattle on the 18th of January and took the contas- tants to Seward on steamers and from that point to the far westward on small gasoline boats through the stormiest waters of the world, thru bowling gales and raging Dizzards and across miles of snow-covered will derness and return in the dead of winter.
 Bradford was the first to reach the ground but Waller finished his survey of the ground first and started on his return journey. At Kodiak he caught the Admiral Farragut and was pas senger southward on her last trip. He was anxious as it was reported that Bradford had secured gasboat and was racing direct from Kodiak to Ju- neau via the outside passage.
 The story of the hardships endured with each straining every nerve and using every trick known to beat out his rival will probably never be known but Waller was the first to i!lc his survey. The next step in the fight for the valuable cannery site is up to the officials of the land office, the attorneys for the opposing com panies and the Department of the In- terior, and it is probable that some time will elapse before the question as to which of the contestants really wins is settled, as attorneys for Brad ford claim that his arrival on the ground first entities him to the site.
