Work Is Resumed
At Priest Rapids

Taking advantage of the mild wea-
ther, the crew of half dozen or more
men at Priest Rapids, who were laid
off with the advent of the cold spell
couple of weeks ago, went back to
work again Tuesday.
A part of the crew is engaged in
removing with the county drag line
large boulders from the power canal
and others are moving the pile of rocks
near the east side of the power house.
that has been interfering with the dis
charge of water from the plant to the
tail race
If the mild weather continues for
another two weeks it is believed that
most of the outdoor work that is to
be undertaken this winter, will be fin
ished. 1t is also hoped that the repair
work on the power wheels will be COM
pleted in time SO that the power plant
can start operations again by the first
of February.

Settlement of
Railroad Tax
Case Blows Up
AND RAILROAD UNABLE
TO AGREE AND CASE WILL
PROCEED TO TRIAL

Efforts to effect compromise adj
iustment of the railroad tax cases
pending in Federal court have been
temporarily. if not permanently, halted.
After attorneys representing the
various counties involved, acting in co..
operation with and upon the advice
of the county commissioners of the
several counties, had agreed to a COM
promise settlement with the Northern
Pacific N. C. Mann, reputed tax
payer of King county, interviewed In
the case to prevent such settlement,
alleging in his petition bad faith on
the part of the county commissioners;
rights of the counties, inasmuch as
they would receive an additional am
cunt if the cases were tried on their
merits; and that the county commits
sioners had no legal right to make
the settlement.
At hearing in Spokane Monday OF
last week. Judge Webster denied the
petition of the interviewer as to the
authority of the county commissioners
to make the settlement.
The following day, the railroad COM
pany announced that it would not pay
all of the money to the counties with
in ten days from the date of the entry
of the decree, as the" interviewer still
had the right of appeal. An unsuc-
cessful attempt was then made to Sc
cure waiver of the right of appeal
The railroad then offered to pay so
per cent of the amount of the settle
ment within ten days after the DEGREES
were entered, and to deposit the bal
ance in escrow to be paid over to the
counties as soon as the intervener'S
appeal was either waived or denied,
and, if the lower court we're reversed
and the county commissioners right
to settle denied, then the money was
to be returned to the railroads.
Attorneys for most of the counties
felt that this last proposition afforded
ample protection, but the King county
attorney objected and in lieu proposed
that an amount equal to the railroad
company's first proposition of settle
ment be paid at once and the balance
held in escrow, pending the outcome of
the hearing on the appeal.
The railroad refused to agree to this
proposal and the parties being unable
to make any further progress, the
court was advised of the situation and
it is expected that he will shortly fix
a time for making up the issues III
the pending cases and that they will
proceed to trial without delay.

and the counties is over the valuation

inclusive. The roads involved in the
tax suits are the Northern Pacific,
the Milwaukee and the S. P. & 8.
The Great Northern and O. w. have
never questioned their taxes and have
paid in full each year.

Death Calls
Mrs. Hastings
OF Hanford
INTERESTING LIFE COMES TO
CLOSE AT DAUGHTERS HOME
CHRISTMAS EVE

A beautiful life came to an end on
Christmas Eve when Mrs. Harriet
Thompson Hastings passed peacefully
away at the home of her daughter,
Mrs w. A. Joyce in East Hanford.
Mrs Hastings had almost rounded the
century mark, as she would have been
ninety-eight had she lived until the
fourteenth of next February. She had
not been i'll long, having had only a
slight cold for a few days, but the
task of shaking it off proved too much
for her fragile strength. Her death,
like the latter years of her life, was
peaceful and lovely.
Mrs Hastings memoirs, written in
her leisure time since she came to the
Priest Rapids valley, cover a period
from the time fireplaces were used for
cooking and matches were unheard of,
in her childhood until the present as
her interest in the progress of the
world never Waned. Her recollections
are those of life filled with adven-
tllre She remembered steamboat rides
on the Mississippi when she was a
little girl and her first train ride on
a fiat car when the G. B. & @. was
built through Illinois in 1855.
She was married in 1861 to James
Hastings of Mendoza, Illinois, and was
attending with him the Centennial
Celebration in Philadelphia in 1876,
when news of the Custer massacre
was received There also, they heard
the old Liberty Bill ring for the last
time, and saw Alexander Bells new
invention, the telephone, on display.
The Hastings family lived in Dodge
City, KANSAS. when the plains were
roamed by large herds of buffalo. They
came farther West and saw Seattle
when MacDougall & soutllYick skept
store" In a tent and A. A. Denny pas
tllred his COW at Second and Union.
After her husbands death Mrs. Has
tings who was then living in Seattle,
joined the Alaska gold rush and was in
Skagway during some of it's early
stormy days, moving back to Seattle,
however, after few months and even
tually coming to this valley, where
with her daughter, then Miss Har-
riet Hastings, she homesteaded near
Priest Rapids.
OF her five children but one son
and her daughter, Mrs. Joyce, are liv-
ing. Besides them she leaves four
grandchildren, who are: Harriet V.
Joyce of East Hanford, Florence Car
rarri of Muckilteo, Alice Burns, Sc
attic, and Cecil Hastings. Everett.
There are also three greatgrandchil-
dren.
She was of Revolutionary stock, her
grandfather, John Thompson, having
fought in the Revolutionary War in
Capt. Jacob Weaver's company, 10th
Pennsylvania Regiment, commanded
by Col. Richard Hampton.

Confronted by the possibility of their
first Christmas without the younger
members of their household being at
home, Mr.. and Mrs. 0. G. Young sud-
denly decided on Christmas Eve to
drive TO Spokane, where their son
Woodrow Young, is attending school
this winter, and their daughter, Miss
Ruth Young is making her home with
friends They remained in the city as
the guests of friends until Monday
evening. Mr.. and Mrs. Young report
somewhat difficult trip on account
of the two feet of snow they encoun-
tered near Cheney. The drifts in some
places they said, were more than ten
feet deep, and in one part of the jour-
ney they were forced to drive in low
for an hour in order to negotiate dis

means partition of China, and unity
