IDAHO GUARDSMEN ON DUTY
AT RAILROAD BRIDGES
An L w. w. Loafer Wanted to Cross
and He Did-Walking in Front
of a Bayonet

The war became little more of re-
ality to people in this community the
last of the week when detail Of Ida
no National Guardsmen pitched camp
in Pasco and established a military
guard over all railroad bridges in this
section.
To one of the many I. w. WIS who
have been loafing in and around Pas
CO for several weeks, the war became
still mora a reality when he walked
the bridge between here and Pasco
Tuesday night at the point of a bayo-
net. The man was halted at this end
of the bridge by the guardsmen and
told that he could not cross. He was
just relieving himself Of some very
uncomplimentary remarks about the
United States government and tin SOL
diers when one of the soldiers lads
stepped behind him, pointed his bayo-
net at his back and commanded him to
walk. He did, and is now in the LOCK-
up in Pasco.

P. P. & l. COMPANY TO
OPEN STORE AND OFFICE
Accounts for Territory This Side cs
River to be Moved from
PascO

The Pacific Power & Light company
is considering plans for opening an
electrical store and uptown office in
Kennewick and transferring from Pas
co the books and accounts for Kenne-
wick, Finley, Richland, White Bluffs
and Beverly.
The new. district manager, A. S.
Hall has contemplated this move for
some time but as yet has been unable
to secure suitable location in the
business district. It is barely possible
that the Commercial club may decide
to move to other quarters and in that
event the store and Offices will be op-
ened in the present club quarters in
the Hover block.

Big "i" PURCHASES
VISTA WAREHOUSE
District Fruit Growers Associa-
tiOn Takes Over Plant Built
by Highlands Fruit Co.

A deal has been closed whereby the
warehouse built by the Highlands
Fruit company at Vista, becomes the
property of the Kennewick District
Fruit Growers association. In dis
cussing the matter Manager Des-
oranges said: "The large tonnage that
we have at this point has made it
necessary for us to provide facilities
for handling the same and as much
OF the tonnage that was handled thru
this house last year has now come in
to the association it was but natural
thai: we should take over this pro-
perty. We plan some improvements
so that we can handle the fruit more
economically and to take care of all
that is offered. Last week 80 acres
more signed with the association and
a number of other growers are favor
ably considering joining. Plans for
the Kennewick house are progressing
favorably and we hope soon to be at
work. Better facilities are also plan
ned for Richland where we have
very satisfactory tonnage signed.
THE labor question this year will
probably be serious one. shall need
about Is people during the apple har-
vest, but as a large per cent of this
help can be women and girls, and as
warehouse work is very desirable, 1
hope to secure what help need. 1
shall employ local help as far as pos
sible and under competent instructor
hope to develop some skilled artists
in the fruit game before the season is
over. There is no good reason why
competent local help should not be de-
veloped to do this work."

April Fl
SECOND AND YAKIMA STREETS
County Commissioner Pratt and May
or Sherk Want Everybody
to Cooperate

The Stars and Stripes are to be Of
ficially raised over Kennewick Sun
day afternoon, April 81. This does
not mean that there has been any
scarcity of flying colors as nearly ev.
cry business house and residence in
the city is adorned with an American
flag to denote the individuals patriot
ism. But the official flag raising is
to be community affair and Old
Glory floating from high staff will
testify to Kennewick's loyalty as
community. &
The flag raising is to be but part Of
the program outlined by the county
commissioners for observance in all
parts Of the county and the commun-
ity flag is to be ga constant reminder
of our patriotic duties" Since the
county boards resolution was adopted
last week Commissioner r. e. Pratt
has been on steady hunt for a suit
able flag pole. He has found it i'm
possible, or at least impracticable, to
get pole from any of the timbered
districts and as a substitute staff
80 feet high will be made from elec-
trio light poles and gas pipe.
The staff is to be erected at the cor
ner of Second and Tacoma streets, east
of the Hover block and the large flag
will be unfurled every day as long as
war continues.
In this flag enterprise Mr.. Pratt
and Mayor Geo. w. Sherk have in
vited the cooperation Of every COM
mercial and social organization and
every individual in the community.
day has been set for Sunday
because of the busy season of the year
as it is desired that every man, wo-
man and child in the community at
tend the ceremonies. Details of the
program which will doubtless include
a patriotic parade, have not yet been
worked out. The ceremonies will be
set for an hour that will not conflict
with any church services and the ex-
erciscs will be in keeping with the
day. Mr.. Pratt has already
received assurances from several Of
the local ministers that they and their
churches will lend their hearty sup
port to make the occasion big sue
cess.
Complete details will be given next
week.

Four Richland People Have Mar
row Escape from Drowning
# at Kennewick Docks

MIR. and Mrs. Samuel Ross and
daughter Elsie and Carol Harding,
Of Richland, had a narrow escape from
drowning in the Columbia river last
Saturday, when Mr.. Ross drove his
new Maxwell over the side of the Ken
newick-Pasco ferry. Mr.. Ross has
had his car only few weeks and in
attempting to board the ferry at the
Kennewick docks he was unable to
stop the machine and it turned turtle
over the boats side into ten feet Of
water.
That some one of the party was not
drowned was due to the presence Of
mind and heroic efforts of Lee Powell,
ferry engineer. The car had hardly
hit the water, when Powell, who is an
excellent swimmer, dove after it. BY
repeated diving and with the assist
ance of G. c. Clark and row boat, he
not only rescued the occupants of the
car but attached rope to the rear
axle of the car and prevented its float.

were taken to nearby gypsy camp
where they We're provided with dry
clothing before being brought into

The party was enroute to Pasco to
secure a marriage license for Miss
Ross and Mr.. Harding, who Were to
have been married the following day.
