WHEELER PRESSES
FOR SILVER VOTE
introduces Compromise
Measure to Bring About
16-to-1 Ratio.

Another effort to get vote on the
silver issue at this session was launched
yesterday when Senator Wheeler,
Democrat, of Montana, introduced
what he described as a compromise
measure. 1t provides for Government
purchase of up to 200, 900 900 ounces,
at least $4,000, 900 ounces a month. on
terms to be fixed by the Secretary
of the Treasury, the purchases to
terminate as soon as the l6-to-1 ratio
with gold is attained.
Silver certificates would be issued
against the bullion and would be con-
sidered full legal tender in the dis
charge Of all debts.
A similar bill. offered As an amend
ment to the gold revaluation measure,
was defeated by the Senate about a
month ago.
While Wheeler conceded it could
muster little if any more votes now.
he said he offered it to test the sin

MRS. Fl. II. BOIE IS
BITTEN BY SPIDER

Although there are quite number
of black widow spiders in the valley
there had been no recorded instances
of anyone being bitten by one of these
insects until last week, when Mrs. II.
H. Boie was bitten on the wrist by
one.
Mrs. Boie was working. in her gar
den week ago Friday, raking away
old leaves under the plants, when an
insect bit her on the arm, just above
the wrist. Recognizing 1t as black
widow spider, Mrs. Boie ran to the
house and Immediately began applying
antiseptic remedies. 1t is believed that
this prompt action is what prevented
more serious effects.
The affected arm became very swol-
len and for a number of days she was
unable to open or close her hand. AL
though the swelling has not as yet
entirely disappeared, it is greatly re-
duced and she is able again to use
her hand.

Columbia River Communities See
North-South Road as Necessity

there are four highways from western
Washington to eastern washington
and two more are In the process OF
construction. At the same time there Is
not one road east Of the mountains
serving the north and south traffic. BY
constructing this short link from Van
tage Bridge to State Highway No. 8, all
of these six roads would be tied In to-
gether and there would be an outlet
from north central to south central
Washington.
AS the route is proposed by the as
ISOLATION, the road would leave State
Highway No. Z at the west end of Van
tage Bridge, go straight down the west
bank of the Columbia river, through
Priest Rapids, to connect with the
oiled road from Kennewtck to White
Bluffs, making junction with State
Highway No. 3 In the vicinity of Ken
neWick.

of this road.

DAKOTANs INQUIRE
ABOUT LOCAL LAND

Proof that residents Of other sec
lions, particularly those OF the drought
ridden middle west, are interested IN
the prospects of farming In the Priest
Rapids valley was shown during the
past week or more by the number OF
inquiries received here for land, D. s.
wilkinson told the White Bluffs Com
mercial Club at Its meeting last Thurs
day evening.
A short while ago the club inserted
small advertisement, Offering several
pieces of land for sale In this valley,
in the Minot, North Dakota daily
paper. This ad ran for period Of one
week, and within the past few weeks
nearly twenty inquiries have been re-
ceived by the club from farmers OF
that territory in regards to the land
Inquiries for farms here have also been
received from Utah and Idaho.
The club voted to have q celebration
early In September to signalize the
completion Of the oiling OF the high
way from White Bluffs to Kennewick
In charge of this event will be q COM
mittee, composed Of Jess Brown, chair
man, Jack Aitcheson and Georgt

State Director Robinson Approves
Fruit Code; Effective August y

The sale Of Gull apples for fresh
fruit consumption will constitute
gross misdemeanor under the agree
ment and the act. The transporting of
Gull apples Of the district in which
produced without permit from the
horticultural office will be deemed an
unfair practice under the act.
The movement for growers code
was started in the Priest Rapids valley
last winter and the promotional work
was done largely by the Priest Rapids
Valley Growers Association. A. l.
Brockway secretary of this associa-
ton, made several trips over the east
ern part of the state, discussing the
proposed code with fruit growers Of
every district and urging them to APP
point committees to work on the mat
ter. At an open hearing held in Ellens-
burg in June, 1t was determined that
the growers of the state were favor
able to code, and marketing agree
ment and code Of fair practices was
drawn up. While this was changed to
some extent, the code is much the
same as originally drawn up.

ONE CASE OF DREAD
DISEASE In VALLEY

"Stop all gatherings which children
attend and keep your children at
home" That was the advice Of DR..
Spaulding, Benton county health off,
Ger, when he learned that case Of
infantile paralysis had developed in
this district.
Lesion Colemon, when taken to a
Yakima physician on Saturday, was
found to be suffering from mild
case of the disease. BY Tuesday, how
ever, his fever was gone, and he was
able to be dressed and around. Since
the boy is in highly nervous con-
dition, he will remain in Yakima for
another week to be under his physi-
clans supervision, but physically he
has quite recovered.
Lesion fell, hitting the back of his
head, little over week ago. and 1t
is believed that the resulting conges-
ton provided the opportunity for the
infantile paralysis virus to become ac-
tive This is not an unusual manner
for the disease to develop as this spe-
ciflc bacteria is latent In large per-
centage of both adults and children,
This accounts for the isolated cases
of the disease which commonly occur
Further precautions urged by many
physicians include no swimming and
the use of no kind of nasal spray or
wash as these destroy the natural
mucuous secretions in the nostrils
which act as protectives.
For the time being the Sunday
schools of both the Lutheran and Pres
byterian churches will be closed. They
will be re-opened as soon as all danger
of infection is past. The Sunday schoo
picnic which was planned by the mem
bers of the Presbyterian church ha'
also been postponed until a later date

Is Characterised AS "Most
+ Important Project in
This Section"

Seeking the immediate construction
of highway link from Vantage Bridge
to Priest Rapids on the west side OF
the Columbia river, representatives OF
east central Washington communities,
from Bridgeport to Kennewick, gath
cred at the meeting of the Samuel
Hill Everyday Highway Association IN
Wenatchee Wednesday, August Is.
One of the largest delegations there
was that from the Priest Rapids valley,
including G. l.. MCGEE and E. E. Meek
err, Cold Creek; L. N. Fry and Paul
Bruggemann, Allard; j. M. Shinn and
G. r. Chase, White Bluffs, and E. r.
Griner, r. w. MacDonell and John
Kashier of Hanford.
w. E. Southland of Ephrata, president
of the association and well-knoWn good
roads booster, presided at the meeting.
He pointed out the need for such q
link in the highway system of the
state, characterizing it as the most i'm
portant highway project in eastern
Washington.
In order to clarity the situation, A.
8. Hulyer, SunnySlde pupllSner, eA-
planned the project from large map
on the blackboard. "There is one out
standing development in eastern Wash
ington at this time" said Hillyer. "This
is the Coulee Dam region. Within the
next few years we will see thousands
and thousands of tourists. and great
numbers of settlers coming to this
area. How are they going to get there
AS the road system is now, If they
come from the south they must wind
back and forth across the mountains
With this short link of highway con-
structed, they could go straight north
along the Columbia river. From Sum
nyside to Ephrata alone distance OF
81 miles is saved by this route.
"This highway will also offer short

Advocates of the road point out tina,
one of Its most important aspects !:
that it connects all six existing or pro-
posed east-west highways across thu
state. At the present time, they say
