A. N. BeaH Meets Death While
Trying to Put New Fuse i'm
Transformer
BODY HANGS TO THE POLE
Was Experienced Electrician and On
iy Retired Few Months Ago to
Engage in Farming E

A. N. Beall was instantly killed
about 8 o'clock Tuesday evening when
he attempted to insert a fuse in an
electric light transformer at the top
of pole at his home in the Valley.
When the electric lights failed to work
in the Beall home Tuesday evening,
Mr.. Beall called the company's Of
fices but as their linemen We're work
ing near Richland they were unable
to make the trip to the Valley, and
Mr.. Beall attempted to make the ad-
justments himself. He climbed the
pole and as he reached for the trans
former box there was a flash as the
6600-volt current passed thru his
body.
When Mr.. Beall collapsed his body
was held suspended on a cross arm
and it was fully half an hour before
it was brought to the ground.
Mr.. Beall was an electrician of IA
years experience and had worked as
lineman on the Seattle, power lines
several years before coming to Ken
newick. Local electricians explain
the accident by saying that Mr.. Beall's
foot must have been in contact with
the ground wire as he reached for the
transformer.
Mr.. Beall was Al years Of age and
is survived by his widow and three
children. The family is not generally
known in the community, as they came
here only two months ago from Seat
tie and purchased the A. H. Struthers
place.

at the Mueller parlors Friday after
noon at two o'clock by Rev. C. A. Bur-
ris, of the Finley church assisted by
members of the local /. o. o. F. lodge,

that order for number of years.

the cost of completion BY the levy of
an assessment. The cost of complet-
ing the plans and specifications ex-
ceeds the funds available from the
original bond issues by approximate
ly 5000, and Of this amount 1000
has already been spent and is owing
to the Warren Construction company.
The balance of $4,000 will be required
to complete the renewal of delivery
structures and complete the widening
and raising of the canal bank between
II and 20 miles. .
"On account Of the bond market it
is not likely that we can dispose Of
the bonds for any more than the last
issue and this accounts for the differ
ence between the amount needed and
the proposed bond issue Of $4,000,
'and the. directors are now confronted
with the necessity Of issuing addition
al bonds or levying an assessment for
that amount to be paid during the
coming winter. After considering the
matter from every angle the directors
have concluded that the Best interests
of the district will be served by is
suing bonds and for that purpose an
election has iecn called.
"In this connection the directors
feel that every land owner is entitled
to know what disposition has been
made of the funds heretofore author
lied and the reason for the deficiency.
For that purpose detailed statement
of expenditures and estimates of the
work will be published next week.
Outside the foregoing the only
items that substantially exceeded the
estimate were the amounts paid on
account of Industrial Insurance. The
estimates on that account were ap-
proximately $3,O00.Oo which amount
was based on 11k% of 100000 pay
roll. When final settlement was made
with the Industrial Insurance Com
mission, the district was required to
pay $50 instead of 17z% on all work
done since September 1st, 1919. This
increased the cost Of this item ap-
proximately 609o. This amount was
paid under protest and it is expected
that approximately 100000 will be
refunded upon final adjustment with
the Industrial Insurance Commission.
Call work has been done by the
Warren Construction Company on a
basis of cost plus 10A per cent with
a provision in the contract requiring
the company to pay a maximum PEN
atty of $6,OO0.00 if the cost of the work
exceeded the estimate by $4,000. In
addition to these provisions the COM
pany was to receive no percentage on
the cost of construction in excess OF
ls24, 900 over and above the estimated
cost. Under this clause of the con-
tract the full penalty of $4,000 has
been paid by the Warren Construc-
tion company.

$4,000 MORE
IS NEEDED FOR
IRRIGATION JOB
Roard of Directors of Columbia
Irrigation District Call a
Special Election
SlJBMIT BOND ISSUE MAY Is
Kissing Costs of Labor and Material
Brings Total Expense Above
the Estimates

The board OF directors OF Cne CO-
>-lumbia Irrigation District has issued
: called for a special election on June
25 for the purpose Of voting upon a
proposed bond issue Of $4,000 to COW
er a deficiency in the fund for repair
and Improvement of the irrigation
system. In explanation of the pro-
posed bond issue the board Of directors
has issued the following statement:
"When the Columbia Irrigation Dis
trict acquired the Irrigation system
from the Northern Pacific Irrigation
company, it became necessary for the
directors to prepare plans for recon
Ystruction and enlargement Of the irri-
Ration system and to estimate the cost.
4 Surveys were made under the di-
rection of Mr.. Swigart and as re-
suit Of full consultation with Mr.. Tiff
fany and Mr.. Henry, the board finally
estimated the cost of all the work and
of acquiring the irrigation system at
100000. This estimate was made in
the summer Of 1918.
Based upon the boards estimate,
the voters Of the district authorized
two bond issues, one of 100000 and
! one Of $4,000. Out Of the first $780,
900 issue the district realized $57, $50,
owing to the fact that the Northern
Pacific Irrigation company accepted
$4,000 at par and the remaining $685.
900 were sold at 95. Out of the Sc
cond issue of $440, 900, the district re-
allied but $408, 200 for the reason that
it was necessary to sell the bonds at
90. As a result Of these sales, the
district had at its disposal for re-
construction purposes $430,700.
"The work was done under the di-
rection of C. H. Swigart as chief en-
gineer for the board Of directors and
D. c. Henry, supervising engineer act
ing for the bond buyers, and was per-
formed by the Warren Construction
company and district forces. The work
was divided into two units. During
tile construction season of 1918 and
1919 and during the construction pc
ment in wages and material costs with
result the portion of the work done
during that season was within the es-
timated cost. During the summer of
1919 and Turing the construction pc
nod Of 1919 and 1920 the cost Of la.
Dor and material advanced and the
efficiency Of labor decreased. As a
result the cost Of the work done dur
ing the latter season exceeded the es-
innate and the proceeds available
from the bond issues were not suffic-
lent for the completion of the plans.
The irrigation district law requires
the board of directors to complete its
. plans and specifications as adopted,
and It the proceeds available from the
bonds already sold are not sufficient
ior that purpose, it becomes necessary
ior the district to issue additional
oonds, and if such additional bonds
oe not issued the directors must pay
