.PASCO PROVES
EASY VICTIM
Railroaders Drop First Set
in Series by Six to
One Score

The first Of the three-game series
with Pasco, played on the local dia-
mond Sunday, resulted in a 6 to /
victory for Kennewick.
For the third time this year Miller
disorganized the railroaders with his
spit-baH and brought home the bacon
for the home team. In Sundays
game he allowed only five hits, three
of which were credited to Catcher Han.
Only two other men were able to con-
meet for safe one. Shelby, Durkee,
Blanton and other of Pasco's reliable
batters drew blank every time 70 bat.
Morain, in the box for the visitors
did not fare SO well. Six of the Ken
newick boys touched him up for a
total Of nine hits. Batting honors Of
the day rested on Third Baseman Ev-
ett, who connected for three safeties
one Of which was three-bagger. Joe
Hickey was close second with two
good ones, one Of which was a two-
bagger.
Support back of Morain was NOT If
the holeproof variety. His team mates,
were guilty of six errors. Dishonors
however, were almost even for Ken.
newick piled up five in the error col
umn The second game of the series
will be played in Paso next Sunday.

SMUDGING PAID

l.. A. Tweedt Saved $500 Boxes of
Fruit at Expense of $40
L. A. Tweedt has marketed to date
23OO boxes Of apricots, early peaches
and plums from his orchard in the
River Road district. He estimates
that his later varieties of peaches
will bring his total crop to $500 boxes.
While this is not nearly full crop
it's lot better than no crop at all.
"Smudge pots did it." said Mr.. Tweedt
today. "My total expense for smudg-
ing was about twenty dollars and /
claim it was money mighty well
spent"
Because of shortage of help Mr..
Tweedt was unable to fire all of his
smudge pots during the coldest morn
ing of the spring and in some parts of
the orchard no fires were lighted. In
the unsmudged portions there is no
fruit. With proper equipment and
adequate help Mr.. Tweedt is con-
vinced that he would have saved prac-
tically his entire crop.

With Fatal Accident While
in Swimming

Frank Brown, "a, Of Milwaukee,
Oregon, an assistant in the bureau Of
biological survey, is believed to have
been drowned in the Columbia river
near Hanford Sunday evening.

ry on the Hanford side to answer his
signal
The ferryman found Browns clothes
lying on the river shore, but no trace

Carl Gray Spends Day Look
ing Over Company's
Yakima Lines
HIS VISIT REVIvES
COAST ROUTE TALK
Unless Others Strike Crops
of This Valley Can be
Transported

Ever since announcement was made
several months ago that the Union
Pacific was to replace the old bridge
across the Columbia near this city
with an all-steel structure at a cost of
a million and half, rumor has been
current that the Union Pacific system
contemplated the immediate develop
ment of direct rail route thru the
Yakima valley to Puget Sound and
Seattle.
Added color was given to this ru-
NOR by the visit of President Carl
Gray, Vice President H. M. Adams,
and J. B. Waugh, assistant to Presi-
dent Gray, to the Yakima Valley Sum
day. On the trip they were accom-
panied by A. S. Edmonds, traffic
manager of the O-W. r. & N. and
General Agent H. M. West.
OF their visit to Yakima, the Yaki-
ma Daily Republic says:
"The strike situation is not alarm
ing our traffic officials, altho it is
receiving serious attention." stated
Gray, who says that conditions on
the Union Pacific are rapidly i'm
proving and perishables are moving at
practically schedule time. AS an in
stance of the amount of business the
Union Pacific is doing, Gray stated
that coal consumption jumped 1000
tons day due to the rush of perish
able freight business. The Union Pa
cific is adequately supplied with fuel,
according to Gray, who anticipates
no curtailment of train service at
present.
'The growth and expansion of your
fruit business is certainly surprising
and pleasing" said Gray, who has not
been in the valley since 1920, and who
was keenly interested in the new stor-
age facilities and improvements along
Fruit Row. The president made a
careful examination Of all the local
yard property, equipment, trackage,
and land holdings.
Inc edSCeTu olliCidiS WSiS hoiSohi-
initial about the special object of
their visit at this time, but by their
attitude gave the impression that the
rail strike situation was not the main
cause of their investigation. Presi-
dent Gray had nothing to say about
the proposed direct route to Seattle
thru Yakima, altho he was interested
in what was being rumored about the
move in Yakima.
According to the railroad officials
Yakima fruit shippers have reason
able assurance of getting their crop
moved as usual unless the rail strike
spreads to other classes of employees
than shopmen.

NO SHORTAGE
OF CANDIDATES
List of Aspirants Grows as
End of Filing, Season
Draws Near

For some reason, it may be the
possibility of moving the county seat
to Benton City, county offices are
more attractive to more people this
year than for several years. With
two more filing days left the list Of
aspirants is already pretty well filled
up.
To date NJ. M. Moulton, for rep
resentative, Ivan Macy for treasurer
and R. H. Briggs for commissioner
in this district, are unopposed. So
far as republicans and democrats are
concerned the primary elections will
determine who are to be the next Of
ficers. AS yet there are only two
filings on the democratic ticket.
@. E. DeBow, Of Prosser, has de-
clared his intention of contesting the
republican nomination for commits
sioner with A. C. Rumble and the
winner will oppose Commissioner
Alex McNeill in the general election.
In the middle district Commissioner
IS. j. Harrison is not to have things all
his own way az Sam Allard, Of AL
lard, has announced his candidacy.
Mr.. Allard is one Of the pioneers Of
the up-river country and has a large
acquaintance in all parts of the coun-
ty.
Formidable opposition to the can
didacy of Kathryn Severyns for clerk
has developed with the filing of w. E.
Tyler, Of Prosser. It is understood
that VIM. j. Dunning is to withdraw
his candidacy, which will leave the
race between Mr.. Tyler and Miss Sew
eryns. Mr.. Tyler was formerly edi-
tor and publisher Of the Republican
Bulletin and is stockholder in the
company now publishing the Record
Bulletin.
E. o. Rice, president OF the county
Farm Bureau, has become a republi-
can candidate for auditor.
The only fling for the office of
Justice of the peace in this district
is that of Justice T. C Browne.

BRIDGE MONEY
NEEDED BADLY
Work on Columbia Crossing
Running Away from Col
lections on Stock

The Benton-Franklin Intercounty
bridge across the Columbia river be-
tween here and Pasco will be COM
pleted within the next sixty days.
This announcement was made at the
Commercial club luncheon Wednesday
by T. o. Webster, secretary of the
bridge corporation.
With the coming Of lower water
and the restoration of the false work
carried away in June, the troubles of
the, contractor are rapidly disappear
ing. The speeding up Of the steel
work has shifted the worry from the
contractor to the directorate Of the
bridge corporation. The work is rum
ming away from the finances. Payment
on stock subscriptions have been COM
ing in so slowly that the corporation
is becoming delinquent in its pay
ments to the contractor. Unless col
lections can be speeded up work. may
have to be suspended. To the end that
this may not come to pass the cor
poration is sending collectors into the
contributing communities. Secretary
Webster was accompanied by w. J..
Honeycutt, who will call upon all sub
scribers whose notes have not been
paid.
Secretary Webster reports that the
greatest delinquency is in Kennewick
and Pasco, other communities being
pretty well paid up.

Kennewick High School Will Have Is
Letter Men this Year

AS time draws near for the opening

claiming the attention of local grid
iron enthusiasts. Never before have
Kennewick high schools prospects
been brighter for turning out a win
ming team. Thirteen football letter
men will be back in school this year
and several of last years second team
men will be strong contenders for
places in the first lineup.
Captain Waldorf, Leslie Bass and

CANAL AGAIN
WITHOUT WEEDS
City Residents are Warned
to Stop Wasting Irri-
cation Water

For the second time this season the
canals of the Columbia Irrigation
district have been cleared of obstruct-
ing weed growths by turning off the
water for three days. A full head of
water is on again and it is not thought
another shutdown will be necessary
this year. Manager w. C. Muldrow
has given out the following statement
regarding the canal operation:
As on the last occasion in June,
these weeds grew so rapidly in the
last week Of July that deliveries were
cut down about one-quarter in seven
days and got worse each day, until
lit was almost impossible to get any
water to the lower end of the system,
in spite Of crew chaining out the
weeds all the time. Worse still, all
this lost water always goes out in
seepage, along the sides Of the canals
making conditions worse where SUBJ
irrigation exists.
When the head is put back after a
turnout, the same amount of water
stands two to twelve inches lower on
the banks and the drying up of seep-
age spots along the canals is very
noticeable.
1t takes about 40 hours after open
ing the headgates for water to reach
the ends Of the system, and nearly
four days to get all parts of the sys-
ten regulated ts full head.
The distribution of wa.er in the
town Of Kennewick has always been
very difficult matter TIL re are sc
many small users and the use is so
intermittant, the city water commls-
sioner Mr.. Crutchfield, is busy all the
time, but it is physically impossible
to measure water to each users on
these small lots. There is so much
ground on which no water is used
that the total used is comparatively
small, but this does not justify waste.
Preventable waste is the one unpar-
donable sin on an irrigation project,
and it cannot be allowed. The dis
trict cannot turn out water to be run
to waste and the users in Kennewick
are clearly becoming careless in their
use Of water. Often the waste is due
to a defective system on the users
tract which a little work would rem
edy. And the waste results in much
annoying obstruction to streets and
sidewalks and fills low places to form
breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
Unless there is clear Improvement in
these conditions, it will be necessary
to cut down the supply at the head
gates of the town lines.
I feel that it is necessary to warn
the young people Of the district
against the practice of putting RATS,
floats and boats in the canal while
swimming. I know they always In
tend to take them out, but they don't
always do it. Then they float down
and lodge in the gates or in the head
of some big pipe line where they may
easily cause break that will do sew
eral thousand dollars damage. Four
such floats have been caught this sea-
son just in time to prevent serious
results and the practice cannot be al
lowed. The boys can enjoy their
swimming without exposing the dis
trlct to this danger and believe that
tney will, now that they realize its
serious nature.
a sign has been posted at the head
eace OF Lateral One, below town,
warning swimmers not to dive there.
