Kennewick Tuesday in the interests
of his candidacy.
Mr.. Taylor stated in interviews
that he realized that the irriga-
tion question is the most vital one
in the county today and pledged
himself to do all he could to bet
ter the situation. He also stated
that he was strongly in favor of
an adjustment of the tax system,
So that the home and the owner
will pay no more than their just
share of the taxes.
.'T believe the roads should be
built by the tax on gasoline" said
Mr.. Taylor, $50 that the tourists
will help keep them up. / favor the
proposed state North and South
highway and paved east and
west highway. Also farm to mar
ket roads and they should be be-
gun at once. So far as the con-
templated new road between Pros
ser and Kennewick is concerned,
it is a federal aid road and the
chances are that the contract will
be let before the next session of
the legislature, so that whoever is
elected will be too late to have any
thing to say about it, one way or
the other. j believe, too, that tbs
Kennewick bridge should be fee
and believe it will be made so at
the next session of the legislature !"
Mr.. Taylor is frankly friendly
to the Hartley group and feels that
this is a factor in his favor. He
IS one of the owners of the Pros
ser Flour mills and is interested in
tne agricultural development of

Water to Turned off Monday

Columbia Irrigation district be-
longs to the people and properly
should be run as and when the
people need it, the Board of the
district wishes to call attention to
the fact that it has to be paid for
by he people as well, and that It
costs a lot of money every day it
is run. Also, that when it is run
very late in the fall a large guam
tity of the water is wasted and the
ground water always rises so high
that a lot of damage is done on
the lower lands. Opposition to an
early shut off always comes from
few ranchers who. have seeded
small patches of land very late.
This is bad practice and should be
avoided, not only from the water
standpoint but because too late
seeding is open to winter kill from
early cold weather and only rarely
makes a good stand.
Everyone who expects to seed
any land this fall is urged to get
busy and get it done in the next
week or so. 1t is not fair to the
land owners generally for a few
men to hold the system in opera
ton long after the great majority
are thru.

result of injuries received in an
auto accident Tuesday at Siebert,
Colo, according to kilograms re-
'ceived by relatives here. Mrs. Kel-

or so.
The first message stated that
the Kelso car, in which the family
was returning from a visit to the
east, had been rammed in the rear
and that Dorothy and Mrs. Kelso
were injured, but not seriously.
In the evening another message
was received stating that Dorothy
had been injured internally and

and bid fair to outshine those OF
previous years.
The grounds today are teeming
with activity. Carpenters, elec-
tricians, men, women and kids are
in a mad scramble to have their
exhibits in shape for the opening
tomorrow.
The four buildings which have
been erected this year are having
the canvas tarps spread and the
interior decorations are rapidly be-
ing put into shape. There is a
building 36x64 which houses the
horticultural and agricultural ex-
hibits.
Nearby is another nearly as big
in which are the women's depart
ments and the commercial booths
and district displays. There Is yet
another building for the poultry
and one for the live stock, both of
which will be filed to capacity.
These two departments promise
more than usual interest.
An open air dance pavilion, in
view of the sparkling Columbia,
is ready for the opening dance Fri
day night. The management an
nounces that the first half hour of
dancing will be free and everyone
is invited to come and try the
floor.
The carnival features will be in
charge of the American Legion,

A 12-hour turnout will be made

Monday, Sept. 10. Weed growth
has again raised water levels too
high and the scythe squad will
have to trim the weed patches. The
water will be regulated so that

The drop will be felt in the low

day morning, and the system
should be fully regulated again by
Tuesday night.
At this time is it desirable to
call the attention of the waterHs-
ers to the matter of new alfalfa
seeding, says w. G. Muldrow, the
manager. This should not be de-
layed beyond Sept. 18th at the
latest. While the canal system of

were full of similar misstate-
ments, Savidge said, that he never
went quite far enough to let the
libel law get him, but that his
talk was full of insilluations and
half truths.
Neither of the other two Of
ficials said great deal. Claus
on, who spoke first, pointed out
the work OF the State Highway
committee while Hinlile, the sec
ond speaker, touched on the con-
duct OF Hartley. Only a small crowd
mostly anti-Hartleyites, attended
the meeting.

HARTLEY LIES
SAY MEN IN
SPEECH HERE
Speeches Full of Misstate-
ments, Attempting to
Ruin Regulations of
Honest State Officials
Clark Savidge Says.

Three state officials spoke in
Kennewick Tuesday afternoon US
inc as their main subject, Govern
or Hartley's record and the charg-
es he has made against them. The
speakers were: State Auditor, G.
". Clauson; Secretary of State,
J. Grant Hinkle; State Land Com
missioner, Clark Savidge. Of the
three Mr.. Savidge made by far the
most interesting and impassioned
talk; he also exhibited proof of
bis assertions.
The three condemned Hartley's
4spittoon special" as they called
the caravan of candidates and
furniture the governor CARRIED
shout the state on speaking
tour few days ago, they accused
him of an underhanded, despicable
attempt to tear down their repu-
tations and blacken their good
names, and of spreading lies and
misstatements throughout The
state.
Said Clark Savidge: "The Gov
ernor tells you that the spittoons
used in furnishing the state cap;-
tOl cost, on an average, SAT apiece.
This is an absolute falsehood. AS
matter of fact they cost from
TWO to ten dollars each. The ones
ne said cost $100 in reality cost
much less than that amount. The
same is true Of the other furni
sure = he showed you, he boosted
the price on each article"
The furniture for the capitol |
cost less than eight per cent of the
cost OF the building, Savidge
pointed out, that one could not
iurnish an ordinary residence for
much lesser porportionate cost.

WITH other papers.
The idea that the Governor is

administration was

CROWD HEARS
MILLER TALK
FRIDAY MITE
Need for irrigation Legis-
latiOn is Explained in
Detail Candidate Says
He will Work for COun-
ty in All Road Matters

The serious need for irrigation
Legislation was pointed out and ex.
planned in detail last Friday night
by M. M. Moulton at a meeting
called for the purpose of hearing
E. j. Miller of Prosser expound his
views upon the problems of inter
est to the voters in this end OF
the county.
Mr.. Miller, candidate for repre-
sentative on the republican ticket.
stated that his hobby had always
been good roads, but, nevertheless,
he realized the seriousness of the
situation in regard to the irriga-
tion districts and that he would do
everything within his power to
bring relief to this situation.
Mr.. Miller, in referring to the
new road on the south side Of the
river from Prosser to Kiona, stat
ed that if the new road was built,
under the present system of high
way maintenance, the present AZ
miles of highway would be worn
out. by that time and "thrown back
into the lap of the county to main
tain"
"I further favor refund from
the gas tax as collected by the
state to the counties to care for
the farm to market roads," said
Mr.. Miller. sT think the six-mill
road tax now levied on real estate
should be taken care of by the
gas tax. And let me tell you this:
1 think this oiled road stuff is the
biggest piece of bunk and hokum
ever pulled off in the state. It's
just a stunt being worked by the
westsiders so they can grab off
rs per cent of the federal aid road
"With but sixsteen miles of un-
completed road on the Naches pass
the shortest and most
feasible route to the sound is now
blocked. The toll bridge here is
another locked door to free and
easy traffic thru the state. 1t
should be unlocked.
81 believe my record will show"
continued Mr.. Miller, shat I am
broad enough to stand behind the
governor in matters which / be-
ieve are for the best interests of
he state as a whole, but l will
llso feel free to oppose him in the
;hings which I believe are not TO
he best interests of the people at
arge."
