than a message was telephoned to

How about it? Was the editor
wrong when he said candidates

until the county seat issue is
settled, candidates viii be regard

fit material for barter and trade ?
The plain facts are that the
Prosser POLITICAL leaders are to-
day, and always have been, will
ing to trade their shirts to retain
the county seat. The plain facts
are that in the present campaign
they are seeking to carry water
on both shoulders. The plain facts

means that candidates for public
office will be fit material for po-
litical barter and trade, just a.
candidates today are being traded
and bartered for county seat
votes
Are these statements facts, or
are they the imaginings Of =
rattle-brained editor? The answer
follows:
Two days ago the editcr was
assured by Prosser citizens who
were in Kennewick campaigning
for the county seat, that they were
keeping their hands off the COM
missioner contests. They were
willing they said, that the COM
missioner race be run upon its
merits and that the men be select
ed by reason Of their fitness for
office or party affiliations.

PROSSER THREATENS TO
KNIFE CANDIDATE BRIGGS
UNLESS GARDNER SHUTS UP

November election the editor Of
the Courier-Reporter has given
considerable thought to the pro-
position. In considering the ques-
ton he has endeavored to take in
to account the interests Of his own
community and the general good
of the county. He has set forth
his conclusions in an editorial on
page two Of this issue.
In that editorial the editor said:
ut (the county seat issue) has
defeated good and worthy men and
put incompetents into office and
because OF, it no county question,
whether of men Or measures, has
ever gone to the people squarely
upon its merits. 1860 (until the

Harry Briggs from possible de-

BOSSIE cow HAS
MANY CHAMPIONS
Cow Owners File Protest Against the
Proposed Livestock Law-Ac-
tion Postponed

When the city fathers met Tuesday
evening they were confronted by a
delegation of cow owners who pre-
sented remonstrance against the pas.
sage of the proposed livestock ordin-
ance. The protest was signed by III
city residents who requested that the
ordinance be not passed in its present
form.
The provision to which objection is
made is the one which prohibits the
keeping of livestock in any building
within 200 feet of dwelling house.
Several cow owners, and Attorney c.
L. Holcomb, representing others,
spoke in behalf of the remonstrance.
No objections, however, were voiced
to that provision of the ordinance
which will make it unlawful to main
tain livestock breeding stables in the
corporate limits.
The council deferred action on the
ordinance for two weeks.
