ASK MARTIN
VETO UNFAIR
TAX MEASURE
Local Chamber Protests Pas
sage of Selective Sales Tax
Bill; Had Already Objected
to Crop Costs

Governor Martins selective sales
tax bill now passed by both houses
in the legislature, is still objec-
tionable to local citizens and the
special tax committee Of the Ken
newick chamber was instructed this
noon to wire a protest to His Ex-
cellency signing it.
Feeling that the bill is grossly
unfair in it's provisions and an UNI
warranted burden upon business
and industry in general, the club,
like may others in the state, is en-
tering a protest. Already in pre-
carious state, business feels that
any additional load would be ruin
GUS and would result in the stats
losing additional revenue thru in
ability to pay.
The club had already protested
to the legislature, especially as re-
CARDS that portion of the bill which
added to the cost of crop produc-
ton.

DISTRICT CUTS
SALARIES OF
ALL EMPLOYEES
$4,000 in Overhead Expenses
Saved; to Concrete Is Feet
More on Main Canal; Ask
Water Requirements

A slash in operating expenses
for the year and some additional
work on the canal were the ac-
complishments made at the regu-
lar monthly meeting of the board
of directors of the Columbia dis
trict Tuesday.
A general wage cut of twelve
percent in the salaries from direct
or to ditch walkers was decided
upon. This is the second cut made
by the board in operating costs
and totals a saving of % percent,
according to Secretary Frank Maui
pin. The present salary cut will
mean a net saving this year of
$4,000.
Under the agreement with the
Kennewick district, which will
stand 70 percent of the cost, sew
enty-five more feet of the main
canal will be concreted before the
water is turned in. This addition
al protection will be added to the
lower end of the 325 feet which
was completed last week. This
lining is around a rocky point
which has been giving seepage
trouble for several years past.
Mention was made last week of
the reduction of the warrant in
debtedness against the district
from something over $4,000 to
So, 100. According to Mr.. Maupin
all outstanding warrants have been
retired except, this amount which
has run since 1926, when extensive
work was undertaken by the dis
trict. All warrants for other years
have been called and the district
operated one month this year on a
cash basis. This years assessments
will retire all outstanding war
rant Indebtedness, according to
present plans.
Unless heavy rains intervene,
water will be turned into the canal
on the fifteenth, with deliveries
ready by the goth. Much new seed
ing is the reason for the early de-
livery, and the management asks
all who plan to use the early wa
ter to notify the office so that no
unnecessary head may be carried
to cause seepage or danger.

TREASURER TO
TAKE CHECKS
FOR TAX PAY
Receipt Provisional Upon
Bank Clearances, However;
Rebate Permitted if Check
Goes Thru on Time

The County Treasurer has no
authority to accept checks in pay
ment of taxes, especially under the
present conditions, Harry Forsyth
points out in letter to the Cour-
ier-Reporter today. However, he
will accept checks in payment of
taxes and assessments subject to
collection. If checks are paid in
full on or before March 18th, 1893,
receipt will be issued and rebate
allowed on Real Estate taxes. If
check is not paid in full by the
bank it viii be returned to the
sender. This will give the prop
erty owner an opportunity to take
advantage of the rebate on real
estate taxes and pay his personal
property tax before it becomes de-
linquent. This will entail consider
ably more work in the office but
/ am only too willing to do it, if
it will help matters out. This is
the only thing in my power to-
wards relief of the taxpayer un-
der the present conditions.

HUNTERS WANT
JUMP SEASON
Rod and Gun Club Recon-
mends Open Dates; Bound
aries to be Unchanged

At meeting of the Benton
County Rod and Gun club here on
Friday night a resolution was
adopted that recommended a jump
date shooting season for Geese,
upland birds, on a county unison
scale throughout Eastern Wash
ington. 1t was also recommended
that straight shooting schedule
be maintained for ducks on the
grounds that if the jump system
were used it would limit the num-
Der of shooting days due to wealth
er changes.
The group recommended that
the game preserve boundaries
within Benton county be left as
they now are. An endorsement was
signified to the state department
in the form of recommendation,
that small fish taken from the
high water trap-pools at the mouth
of the Yakima river be exchang-
ed with other districts for other
varieties of warm water fish to be
planted in the lower Yakima river.
A delegation from each county
district is to convene at Benton
City Friday evening for the pur-
pose of ammending and drafting
hew bylaws for the county set-up.
A number of changes and new
plans are slated to take place at
the meeting.

LOCAL LABOR
County Plans More Improve
ment on, Up-River Road ;
Open Bid March "a

Benton County Commissioner
started plans this week to grade
and gravel 4 1-2 miles on the
Horn ruitvale road, between Ken
newick and White Bluffs. The date
for opening the bids is March "a.
A special clause included in the
DISSOLUTION for the improvement
making it mandatory that the con-
tractor winning the job hire only
residents of Benton county. Ac-
cording to the plans outlined work
will get underway soon after the
contract is awarded. The engineers
estimate for the improvement is
$11, 152.02 and the money will be
supplied from the lateral highway
fund. When completed there will
be a first-class road between Ken
newick and White Bluffs, dis
tance of 1928 miles. Twenty-one
miles of the distance is oiled or
paved and the other 21.3 miles will
be oiled next year unless changes
are made in the state program
for alloting money to the counties,
according to the deputy engineers.
This road connects with state high
way No. 8 at Kennewick and with
the ,Yakima-Spokane road at
White Bluffs. Two-thirds of the
60 miles of the contract awarded
to C. B. CULLEN of Charleston, has
been completed it is stated and
the contract is expected to be COM
pleted late this month.

Still, She Runs!

Telephone bells tangled at the
Kennewick police station, and
telegraph lines hummed along the
Northern Pacific system Wednes-
day night, when report came in
at the station here that someone
was evidently trying to tear up a
section of the railroad tracks near
the golf course. A special railroad
agent from Pasco and Charles
Copeland Kennewick chief, dashed
madly to the scene to find the
cause of the report, while Bert
Moores and night operator Walt
ers at the N. p. kept a watch for
the safety of rail travel.
The Investigating officers found
the destructive noise was no more
than a resident of the region
breaking up a lot of concrete
slabs that had been part Of an ir-
rigation system. He plans to use
the old concrete for other con-
struction.

tions, which drew hearty applause.
