One of Valleys Early Pioneers Dies

Competent Engineer will be
Hired to Investigate
Gas Deal
COMMERCIAL CLUB
TO RAISE MONEY
Eugene Enloe's Pipe Line
Proposition Causes Gen
eral Enthusiasm

There is no divided opinion in the
community as to the desirability of
making every possible effort to meet
the conditions named in the proposal
of Eugene Enloe to pipe natural gas
from the Rattlesnake wells to Ken
newick and Pasco.
Enthusiasm characterized the Com
mercial club meeting Thursday eve-
ming when Mr.. Enloe's proposal was
presented. The vote was unanimous
to at once investigate the best ways
and means for Kennewick to purchase
and distribute 250,000 cubic feet daily.
The consensus Of opinion is that the
best and quickest way to get action
is for the city to act as a municipal
ity. To this end the Commercial club
addressed a resolution to the city
council asking that it without delay
engage a competent gas engineer to
make survey and submit his report.
At special meeting Of the council
Tuesday evening this resolution was
considered. The first obstacle in the
|city's way is a lack of funds to pay
the engineer. There is not more than
500 In the miscellaneous expense bud
get and there is no other fund from
which the money can be taken. This
obstacle was soon overcome by the
assurance given by President John
son, that the Commercial club would
undertake to finance the investiga-
tion.
Thus assured the council voted to
hire gas engineer provided the Com
mercial club will pay the bill and to
invite the city of Pasco to join with
Kennewick in making the investiga-
ton. If Pasco does not wish to CO.
operate Kennewick will proceed with
the investigation Independently.

FOOTBALL OUTLOOK
is NOT TOO BAD
Coach Kralowec has Squad of Twenty
from Which to Select
r Team a

The Kennewick high school football
season started with the pep that al
ways marks the local high school
activities. An average Of twenty am
bitious young players begin their pre-
paration for a hard season. There is
plenty of material for a heavy, fast
line. This can be built around Cap
tain Woods and Beste, veteran
tackle. The developing of back
field is much more difficult problem,
in that Seward is the only exper-
fenced plunger.
A heavy schedule is planned for
the coming pigskin season. The Yak
ina team, which last year defeated
the local eleven by a narrow margin,
will play here. The Walla Walla
team will be played at Walla Walla
and the home team will line up
against Pasco in the customary two
games. It is likely that the Kenne-
wick eleven will also meet Sunnysioe,
Touchet and Columbia College.

Director Davis Says Con-
struction Item is Carried
in Budget
u. S. ENGINEERS TO
PICK THE PROJECT
Good News is Received by
Yakima Valley Recla-
nation League

Ihere is only one more river to
cross" in the campaign to secure an
appropriation from the U. S. recla-
nation fund for the construction of
the Kennewick unit of the Yakima
project, known as the Kennewick
High Line, which embraces $4,000
acres of fertile lands within few
miles Of this city.
A telegram. received yesterday
from R. X. Tiffany, who is in Wash
ington, D. c., brought the assurance
that this years reclamation budget
will carry an item for the construc-
ton of some one unit, of the Yakima
project. Mr.. Tiffany's wire stated
that D. w. Davis, director of recla-
nation and F. E. Weymouth, chief en-
gineer, had authorized this statement
and that the selection of the unit is
to be left to a committee of reclama-
tion engineers.
Mr.. Tnfany's telegram was receiv-
ed yesterday in Yakima shortly after
the legislative committee of the Yak
ina Valley Reclamation league had
met to consider plans for urging the
reclamation department to take this
step.
With Mr.. Tiffany in Washington are
Ora McDermott and Bruce Bonny, of
Ellensburg, who are using their eff
forts to have the government continue
construction work on the Yakima
project. M. M. Moulton and ]. j.
Rudkin, of this city, who went to
Washington recently on a similar
mission returned home the first of
the week. Mr.. Moulton attended the
meeting in Yakima yesterday and to-
gether with Lloyd Miller of Sunnyside
and Judge Ralph Kaufman, was
named a committee to meet with
Frank Goodwin, assistant secretary
Of the interior, when he arrives in
Yakima Saturday to inspect reclama-
tion on the Indian reservation to en-
list his good win by showing him the
advantage of further irrigating the
Yakima valley. They will also do
the same when Director Davis and
Mr.. Weymouth make a tour of the
valley next month.
Mr.. 'Moulton expressed himself as
highly elated with the news contain
ed in Mr.. Tiffany's telegram. He
says this is all that could have been
expected and the proposition is fair
to all unconstructed units Of the pro-
ject. He feels that the Kennewick
unit stands an excellent chance OF
being designated as the first upon
which work is to be started.
Both Mr.. Moulton and Mr.. Rudkin
are greatly pleased at the attitude OF
Director Davis toward the Yakima
project. They say that at a confer
ence with DR.. Work, secretary Of in
terrier, Mr.. Davis set forth the merits
of the Yakima poject as effectively
Tss could the projects most ardent
booster. They are of the opinion that
there is not the least danger that the
Yakima project will be sighted as
long as Mr.. Davis heads the recla-
nation bureau.
