FRANCHISE FOR ... =. /
BRIDGE is GRANTED
Franklin County Commissioners
Take Action and the Benton
Board Will Monday

There were no dissenters at the
joint meeting of the boards of coun-
ty commissioners of. Franklin and
Benton counties Tuesday afternoon.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of considering the application
of Charles Huber for bilding a bridge
across the Columbia River between
Kennewick and Pasco. All the men
who attended the meeting seemed to
be of the same mind: "We want the
bridge and all we ask is that we be
assured of the good faith Of the ap-
plicant for the franchise"
Der of Commerce and the Kennewick
Commercial club were in attendance.
The Pasco committee had put in writ
ing some suggested changes in the
franchise which, summarized, were
that the time of beginning work be
made more definite, that the work,
when once commenced, be carried on
with due diligence and that the loca-
tion of the bridge be made more def
mite.
Judge Hartman, attorney for Mr..
Huber, answered these requests. He
said they were willing to make the
time of beginning more definite and
the franchise was changed to provide
that work on the bridge must start
before August 1, 1920. The franchise
as asked for provided that the bridge
was to be built at some point not
more than two miles above the N. P.
railway bridge. The committee held
that this was too indefinite and that
the bridge would not be satisfactory
unless it was centrally located be-
tween the two towns. Judge Hartman
evxplained that the two-mile area was
adopted because of desire to located
the bridge above the city limits of
Pasco. He said the corporate limits of
Pasco extend to the middle of the
river and that the county could not
grant a franchise within the city linn
its and the state laws do not give the
city authority to grant a franchise OF
this kind. Judge Hartman was of the
opinion that the corporate limits OF
Kennewick do not extend to the river
and there would be no necessity OF
putting the bridge outside the city.
When he was informed that the Ken
newick limits do extend to the river
for sevral miles he suggested that the
only satisfactory course would be for
both cities to delimit enough land for
the bridge right of way. Members OF
the two committees were of the opin-
ion that proposition to delimit could
be easily carried in both cities.
Mr.. Huber stated that he did not
wish the franchise unless the bridge
could be located centrally between
the two cities. He said further that
he meant business and that just as
soon as he gets the franchise he ex-
poets to begin plans for selling lie
bridge company's securities and max
NJ soundin,: fn. the bridge site
After the hearing the two boards
of commissioners met in executive
session and agreed to grant the fran
chise after a redraft had been made
to include the few minor changes sug-
gested. The Franklin county board
granted the franchise before its ses-
sessions closed and the Benton county
board intends to take similar action
at meeting in Prosser next Monday.

ITS NOT YOUR HEART;
 ITS YOUR KIDNEYS

Kidney disease is no respecter of per sons. A majority of the ills afflicting people today can be traced back to the kidney trouble.
 The kidneys are the most important organs of the body. They are the fil- terers of your blood. If the poisons which are swept from the tissues by the blood are not eliminated through the kidneys. disease of one form or another will claim you as victim.
 Kidney disease is usually indicated by weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness, despondency, backache, stomach trou- ble, pain in Joins and lower abdomen, gall stones, gravel, rheumatism, sciatica and lumbago.
 All these Arrangements are natures

 "Why don't you sell him and buy an auto, uncle?" called cop who had been enjoying the fun.
 "Huh!' growled the colored man. "That mule'd take that as pussonal victory. He's been tryin' to shake me for a week. No, sir. An reckon Ahll stick it out"

Canadians Taking Up Vermont Farms.

Up in the northern section of Vermont,
according to The Barre Times, Canadi
ans are picking up numerous farms and
settling on them in constantly increas
ing numbers. This not only denotes a
prospect of increased agricultural activi-
ty and prosperity for the state, because
most of the Canadians who become thus
interested in Vermont are good farmers
and tend to enhance the value of the
land, but it also tends to offset, to de-
gree at least, the emigration of western
farmers to the far west, Canadian prov.
inces.
The movement into northwestern Can
ada has been large and steady for sew
eral years, by reason of a vast amount
of new cheap land available, on which
large crops of wheat could be raised, Off
setting the disadvantages of remoteness
from market and rgors of winter. There
is no question but what in time this
emigration will be more than counter.
balanced by immigration.
Certainly any movement that is cal.
culated to make use of the idle land
in this state is to be welcomed. There
is no question but what more money
can be made in farming in Vermont, on q
moderate investment, than can be made
in the middle west where land is so ex
pensive or in the far west where much
of the land has to be artifcially wateret
by irrigation systems that are costly
The average good farmer in this state il
decidedly prosperous. these days, and HI
has many more of the comforts of lif,
because of his nearness to centers of pop
ulation.-Rutland News.

Vermont Judges Salaries.

The salaries of the Vermont judges are
receiving considerable attention in the
state newspapers These salaries have
never been as large as the incomes good
lawyers can make in private practice,
vet the fact remains that there has been
no dearth of good men for both the SUI
perior judgeships and the supreme court.
Some lawyers are so constituted temper
amentally and by professional prefer
ence that they would rather serve on the
bench at modest pay than to have much
larger incomes in general practice, There
seems to be no reason for another in
crease in the salaries of the Vermont
judiciary. As a general proposition II
can be said that no man is wanted on
the bench who takes the position by rea-
son of the salary attached to it.-Rut-
land News
