CHERRIES TO
FILL 40 CARS
Local Product Tops the
Market Will Bring
100000

Manager H. w. Desgranges an
nounces that the Big Y has al
ready shipped 80 cars of Bing and
Larmbert cherries and will close
the season by the end of the week
with two more cars. He states
that the market has held up well
thruout the season, and the total
shipments from Kennewick will
total at least forty cars, which
should bring at least 100000 into
the district.
Mr.. Desgranges was frank to
say that growers would not re-
ceive as high price as last year,
but stated that the Kennewick
cherries were sold at several
cents above the pool price of Lew
iston and Grandview, where the
cherries brought nine and quar-
ter and ten cents per pound. The
Royal Annes of this district were
sent to the canary at nine cents

Musicians-Session APP
proves Many Measures

The annual convention of the
last grange came to a close Fri
day night and Saturday. Many
delegates inspected the exper-
iment station at Prosser, in which
excursion the grange had invited
Gov. Hartley to participate, says
the Yakima Republic.
The final event of the convention
was a kangaroo court which fur
nished lot Of fun for the dele
gates who raised $132.2O for the
Lewis County band, which furnish
ed music for the meeting.
In its closing business session
the grange went on record as op-
posing the amendment to the fed
eral farm loan act as contained an
H.R. 1850; favored organization
of cooperative savings and credit
associations, or credit unions;
voted to renew efforts to secure
a credit union law from the state
legislature; favored adoption of
the child labor amendment; ap-
proved consolidation of the rail-
ways; favored construction of the
Cascade tunnel; recommended that
steps be taken to re-submit the
butter substitute bill, known two
years ago as referendum 16, to the
voters; endorsed the policies of
the national grange in regard to
the increase in rates on parcel
post matter; favored an act au-
thorizing cities and towns to de-
velop and sell electric power out
side their limits; opposed the TIM
ber referendum to come up in this
state in November.

MORE WATER
IN DITCH NOW
Weed Cleaning Gives 2OR
More Volume-Canals
are in Good Shape

The water is back in the canal
in good head after the turnout
of June 3rd to 5th. The weather
was favorable and the cleanup Of
moss and weeds was very good
The comeback to full deliveries
was more prompt than usual.
The turnout showed the bitches
in excellent condition except for
rather wide distribution of weeds
due to early season and lack OF
muddy water in the river. There
was a gratifying lack of securing
and bank cutting in the main can
al and also far less deposits OF
sand and mud than usual.
The efficacy of the turnout is
shown by the difference in the crit.
ical cages on the canal. For ths
last few days before the turnout
the water set new high mark
along the dangerous stretch of
main canal from 9Th to 10Th miles.
Now there is margin of several
inches along most of this stretch,
below the level of last week, tho
the headgate is set two inches
higher. On June 1st the gage at
the head of the Hedges beat read
21R, or a flow of 50 second feet.
The deliveries are now 2046 great
er, are much freer from fluctua-
tions and from moss clogging, etc.
The difference is also marked
in the Hover district, where the
last miles of the ditch went dry
during the day for the last couple
of days before the turnout and
several miles more was very short.
Now there is a plentiful supply
to the very end.
1t is not possible to predict
when it will be necessary to turn
out again. Weather conditions have
a bearing on it. The time between
the first and second turnouts has
been as follows: 1922, 80 days;
1923, 81 days; 1924, % days; 1925.
80 days, or an average of 33 days.

CITY HALL is
HALTED AGAIN
Holcomb Maintains vote
on Plan is Necessary
Sidewalk Approved

At the adjourned meeting Oh tne
CITY council Tuesday evening tnat
body found itself facing an accu-
mulated amount of business rang
ing from the approval of monthly
bills to another discussion OF the
proposed city hall.
The bills were disposed OF as
matter of routine, but the city nan
question caused some lengthy DIS
cussion owing to the fact that the
mayor and council had gained the
impression that the city building
could be erected without vote OF
the people. This impression it was
stated was gained through advise
of ]. z. Bassett, who has recently
visited the city in his capacity as
deputy state auditor.
City Attorney Holcomb stoutly
maintained that the mayor and
city fathers Were empowered 20
do no such thing, and argued that
the one and one-half per cent OF
valuation allowed for expenditure
was intended to include city rum
ming expenses and not intended to
be used for bonding purposes
above current or budgeted expens-
es. The advise of Mr.. Holcomb
prevailed and no action was TAX
en-. 1t is improbable however from
expressions of individual cotncil-
men that they really had desire
to construct the city hall without
vote of the people.
BY resolution the council or
dered the renewal Of sidewalks on
Fruitland Ave-, from the Moulton
place north, crossing the rights
of way of the Northern Pacific
and O.-W. r. e. N. railways and
running as far as the corner of
the vacant block owned by the
school district.
No action was taken in regard
to the vacancy in the office of city
treasurer caused by the death of
w. G. King. The mayor and coun-
Gil desired more time to consider
the matter. The office is now being
cared for by Mrs. Winnifred Camp
bell, city clerk.
Action was taken on the city
drinking fountain, and after some
discussion Chief of Police Duffy
was instructed to have the foun-
tain installed in front of the post
office.
City Attorney C. l.. Holcomb
was appointed to select commit
tee for the city program for the
Fourth of July and the week of
celebration in honor of the sesqui-
centennial year.

WEST ENDERS
PLAN BIG DAY
Prosser Invites East End
Residents to Fourth of
July Celebration

When the people of Prosser
want guests to help them celebrate
the glorious 5th of July they are
not at fault in letting it be known
how welcome the guests will be,
for on Monday the second dele
cation from the county seat came
down to invite all the Kennewick
valley to join them in real cell
ebration, which the people of Pros
ser desire to make a whole coun-
ty affair.
Prosser, after years Of struggle,
is finally to have a real court
house, and they do not wish the
people Of distant points to feel
that they should celebrate the lay
ing Of cornerstone alone. They
feel further that no day is more
fitting for such an occasion than
the day set aside to celebrate the
birth Of this nation. They are
therefore going to all localities ex-
pressing the warmest invitation
to join them on July 5th and hope
to make the day memorable as one
which will forever destroy, past
jealousies and make Benton coun-
ty united, instead of a scrapping
political unit.
The people Of Prosser are spar.
ing no expense or energy to put
on a real celebration. In the morn
ing the celebration will be opened
by the explosion of one hundred
sticks of dynamite, which they
promise to set off, not at once,
but with care that each stick is
exploded separately.
During the forenoon also the

DENTIST WEEDS
PASCO GIRL
Tells Friends He is going
on One Of His Fishing
3 Trips

DIR. B. F. Cole announced proud
ly to the world that he was going
on a fishing trip over the last
week end and no one seemed to
realize that the local dentist was
making anything but one of his
periodical trips into the mountains
after the elusive trout. The doctor
is such sportsman that a fish
story sounded entirely probable.
News from Toppenish. however
has been received to the effect that
Doctor Cole was married quietly
Sunday, June 9Th at the home of
his brother Hal D. Cole, prominent
attorney of that city, to Miss Lulu
Nelson of Plummer, Idaho, who
last year was a teacher in the
Pasco schools.
Doctor and Mrs. Cole are spend
ing their honeymoon on the coast.

MOORES QUITS;
NAME NEW p. M.
Shanafelt is Selected to
Manage Local P. 0.
Pending Examination

This week the associated press
carried the news that Gordon c.
Moores had resigned as postmas-
ter at Kennewick and that Her.
bert Snanafelt had been recon-
nended as acting postmaster.
Mr. Moores, who has been IL
poor health for sometime, and who
has heretofore stated that he did
not desire another term in office
and made no application for re-
appointment when his regular
term expired last March.
When asked relative to his fu-
ture activities, Mr.. Moores stated
that he expected eventually to 10
cate in Portland, but would prob
ably remain here most of the
summer devoting himself to his
personal affairs. He stated that
he keenly regretted leaving Ken
newick as he felt sure this valley
was destined to be great sue
cess. "No one believes more or has
boosted harder for this district
than I, and I hope to come back
often to see the progress made.
Possibly in my reclining years I
may come back and get a little
place on which to live, but right
now with my present salary, /
don't believe l could, accumulate
enough to get that little place.
says Mr.. Moores.
When Mr.. Moores checks out at
the local post office it will be nee
essary to put on another clerk
but he stated this morning that
Mr.. Shanafelt would make this
choice pending civil service ex-
animation. Mr.. Moores stated that
he had kept Floyd Hutchins on
the eligible list for more than a
year and should Mr.. Hutchirs
health permit, he will probably go
back into the office as regular
clerk.

GOT A SAFE LEAD
ON THIRD PLACE
Home Town Team Slips One
Over on Crack Benton
City Team

When, the smoke cleared away
on the ball diamond Sunday after
noon, Manager Shinn's local
colts had crossed the plate four
teen times, and because of superb
pitching by Harley Glispey who
kept the hits scattered, Benton
City had scored but three tallies.
One of the remarkable features
Of the season is the good hitting
by some of the locals. Willsey and
Evett each made Benton gardners
chase four safe hits, and it be-
gins to look like one of these boys
will top the league.
Manager Shinn now feels he has
a real ball team that will soon be
the class of the league. Kenne-
wick plays at Mabton next Sum
day.
This is how the teams stand:
