Bonds Will Add
But One Cent To
The Tax Dollar

Thinking that many Of the people
of the district were not fully adj
ViSed on the matter of school eX-
penditureS and the problems con-
fronting the board, theyhave decided
to resubmit the special election to
the voters of the district Friday at
ternoon of this week.
Faced with the necessity Of pro-
viding more class rooms, especially
in view of the possibility of an even
larger school enrolment than the
ordinary increase, and with the abb
solute necessity of making extensive
repairs, the board is asking the peo-
pie to determine the mode of pay
ment.
Pointing out that more than one
third of the bond issue will be used
for the required repairs, the board
will be compelled to levy the entire
cost therefor on next years budet
should the bonds fail to carry.
In this event the additional school
tax for next year will be increased
about Sc for each 500 of taxes paid.
Thus, if a taxpayers annual tax is
fifty dollars, three more dollars will
be required to pay for the school
repairs. s...... w..
Ir, on the other hand, the bonds
carry, the cost of the repairs will
amount to less than 40 cents addi-
tional for each 500 of taxes paid.
Including thenewclassro omsandthe
Including the new class rooms and
the additional construction needed
the annual cost will be in the neigh
borhood of $110 per hundred dol
lars of taxes paid.
1t is expected that the present
bond indebtedness will be paid off
next year. The levy for this purpose
is two mills. Except for next year,
it is pointed out, the levy win re-
main the same as it is at present.
Next year, however, the millage for
bond Indebtedness will be doubled.
The board, and others interested
in school matters, are sure that If
the taxpayers knew that the propos-
ed issue would increase their taxes
but one cent on every dollar they
now pay, it win be an easy matter to
carry the election. Much misinfor-
nation has been spread rearding the
issue and the board is Of the opinion
that the people would rather spread
the cost Of the improvements over
a period Of years than to assume it
all in one dose, if they were fully
acquainted with the facts.
The election will be held iA the.
city hall Friday afternoon Of this
week from one until six and all are
urged to vote.

Stop, Says Sign
But TzcoFOrgot

It's wise Judge that knows
his own stop sign. That's what
Judge j. A. Hatch is thinking to-
day with chuckle. Here's why.
Will Lee saw a stop sign Tues
day, but was in a hurry. Charlie
Copeland thought his haste was
unnecessary and arrested him
for disregarding traffic regula-
tions. Lee was brought before
Judge Hatch, tried, and fined one
dollar and costs, making a grand
total of three bucks.
After he was dismissed from
court, Lee got into his car and fol-
lowed the Judge, dubbed with vim
dictive delight as he watched the
judge sail merrily past a stop
sign, and had a complaint sworn
out against him.
Judge Hatch hailed himself into
court, pleaded guilty, tried his
case and fined himself one dol
lar and costs. The Judge is good
sport. But here is the. joker-the
police Judge is entitled to all fees
adjudged defendants in the court,

Start Shipment
Of Early Apples

Warehouses started shipping
transparent apples Monday. Tho
market is satisfactory and the
fruit of exceptionally good quality
and size. The apples are earlier
than usual this year. ,sa5
Potatoes are coming in heavily,
and two or three cars a day are
being shipped from Kennewick.
Competition from outside districts
has taken the edge off the top
price of $50 a ton, however. Cher
ries will be finished by the end Of
this week. The season has dragged
out longer than usual because of
the uneven ripening. of the fruit,
making it impossible to get the
whole crop without several trips
over the orchard.
An interesting sidelight on the
cherry situation is the number Of
acres of young trees that will
come into bearing in 1892. 1t is es-
timated that there will be about
100 acres more by that time. Sew
eral tracts along the River Road
are in young trees, as well as acre
age on the Highlands. ID. F. Parks
has five acres, the Kleinknechts
have 10, and Elmer Olson, 10 also.
When these trees bear, the crew
of pickers and packers will also be
greatly increased.

MuIdroW Plans
3-Day Turnout
For All Canals

Water will be turned out of the
canals of the Columbia Irrigation
district Monday evening, June %,
for three days. This is a week
earlier than the usual weed clean
up, states w. d. Muldrow, mana
ger, but it will not be possible to
run to the usual time this season
without demoralizing the water
service in the lower half of the
valley. Water weed and moss con-
ditions are unusually bad this
year, due probably to the early
season and the lack Of muddy wa
ter from the river.
Water levels are forced high on
the banks throughout the system,
resulting in heavy seepage and
dangerous conditions in the upper
canal. Service has been poor and
erratic in the Hover and Hedges
districts for the past week IN spite
of the cool weather and the steady
work of the extra crew with chain,
moving machine and scythe.
The crew cleans about two miles
of ditch a day, Muldrow explained,
lowering the water four to seven
inches. In six days it climbs back
again, so each section must be
cleaned once a week. But each
cleaning seems to be little less
effective, and each day the canals,
running as full as they can he car
ried, will deliver little less water
thruout the valley.
A three-day turnout, which kills
all weeds and MOSES, seems the
only way to deliver a full head
again. 1t is important that all the
ranchers having special crops,
such as potatoes, new seeding and
plants that would be injured by
three days without water, get
them well irrigated before Mon
day night.

Club To Ask For
New n. P. Depot

he Commercial Club is going to
ask the Northern Pacific road for
new depot. The matter was brot
before the club today and it was
pointed out that a sufficient tom
mage of freight and passenger SER
vice was handled at this point to
justify more adequate terminal fa-
cilities.
Pointing out the fact that this dis
trict was due for an increase in pop
ulation and Importance thru the
rehabilitation of the Highlands this
year, it was considered an opportune
time to ask the road to include in
its forthcoming budget a sufficient
amount next year to construct a
first class station-one befitting the
Importance of the community as it
will be following the orderly devel-
opment of the district.
Kennewick has been invited to par
ticipate in a preview of the Yakima
park in the Rainier district next
month. A new road across the Ma
ches Pass is being built now and the
road will conect thru the park with
the Tacoma-Seat highway, cut
ting about ninety miles from the
distance from here to Seattle. The
opening of the park will take place
in about a year, and this trip is to
acquaint the people of the district
with the possibilities of the section.
Only thirty cars will be admitted
at this time.
