WILLIAM H. DUNPHY
William H. Dunphy died at his
home in Walla Walla Wednesday
morning, April 7.
Each word of this simple an
nouncement is fraught with meaning
to the state of Washington, to the
democratic party and to hundreds of
men and women who knew and loved
tins:' gentle, brave, just and noble
man.
To the state it means the loss of
one of its strongest and most useful
I citizens, whose record afc a loco
motive engineer, as a land offico of
ficial, as a lawyer, and as a political
le»4er, furnishes an inspiring ex
ample for others to emulate.
, To the democratic party it means
tne loss of one of its most active, in
fluential and trusted chiefs, who had
demonstrated his capacity for lead-
I motive engineer, worthiness any

To the democratic party it means
the loss of one of its most active, in
fluential and trusted chiefs, who had
demonstrated his capacity for lead
ership and his worthiness of any
trust reposed in him.
To those who knew him intimately
it means the loss of a loyal and help
ful companion whose every day life
»as a constant exemplification of the
Golden Rule; "Do unto others as ye
. would have them do unto you."
To the writer it means the loss of
"is dearest and most devoted friend,
s who in more than 25 years of in
timate association had beoome to
•"in closer than a brother.
There is no more difficult task
"»»- to find words in which to pay
a ntting tribute to the memory of

ories and such an overwhelming

the lasting confidence and close
friendship of many of the national
leaders of his party, just as these
same characteristics had held the
affectionate esteem of his former
railroad companions, and gained the
respect and trust of his fellow attor
neys and townspeople.
He found his greatest pleasure in
helping others and freely used
his political influence in behalf
of his friends, but never asked any
thing for himself. Intensely devoted
to his family, he lived quietly ,md
unpretentiously and like the Master
he served, "went about doing good. '
As his friends gather about his
bier with heads bowed in grief and
eyes blinded with tears, the thought
in every mind will be «
"There lies a man."
Farewell, dear friend; you were
BO faithful and kind to me that none
can ever take your place, but the
precious memory of our friendship
outweighs the bitterness of our part
ing and I know that
" 'Tis the glory that divides us
Not the darkness as we think."

THE WHEAT SITUATION
In reviewing the wheat situation
in its financial department, the Lit
erary Digest calls attention to the
fact that in response to many inquir
ies from all parts of the country, the
Department of Agriculture recently
issued statements showing our sup
plies, consumption, and exports of
wheat, the inquiries having been
called forth by depletions of our sup
plies through heavy exportation*. It
la estimated by the department that
in 1914 the total amount of wheat
produced in this country and brought
over from the previous year was
907,000,000 bushels, of which 520,
--000,000 bushels were required for
homo consumption and 90,000,000
tor seeding. These figures left a
surplus of 357,000,000 bushels, of
which up to February of this year
110,000,000 bushels had been ex
ported, leaving for export between
February and July (when the new
crop begins to appear) 147.000,000
bushels. That amount would permit
of exports daily until July of about
1,000,000 bushels, but it would leave
no stock to carry over into the new
year.
B. Frank Howard, a careful sta
tistician, Is quoted in the New York
Evening Post as estimating the farm
reserves on February 1 as 268,000,
--000 bushels, which is practically the
same amount that existed on farms
last year. During, the recent seven
months there have been moved from
farms 595,000,000 bushels, an
amount greater by 128,000,000
bushels than the wheat moved dur
ing the same period of the previous
year. Mr. Howard's estimate of the.
wheat now available for export ac
cords substantially with the one
made by the Department of Agricul
ture. When account Is taken of oth
er wheat already sold but which Is
to be exported later, our surplus will
have been practically exhausted. As
for the crop for 1915, a writer in the
same paper says:
"Indications are that there may be
another I .one.. bushel crop this
season unless conditions are most un
favorable. An average yield of IS
bushels per acre on 41.000,000 acres
of winter wheat will give a crop
of 618,000,000 bushels.- Last year
the yield per acre was 19 bushels
and crop 686,000,000 bushels. A
yield of 17 bushels this year on the
acreage seeded last fall would give
697,000,000 bushels.
"With a favorable spring, extra ef
forts are certain to be made to put
In a largely Increased acreage of
spring wheat. Should 80,000,000
acres be seeded, as is expected, that
will give an aggregate of 60,000,000
acres, allowing for a loss of 1,000,
--000 acres from winter killing. On
IT, bushels per acre, which is a low
figure, this would work out 900,000,
--000 bushels, or 9,000,000 bushels
more than were harvested last year.
Were this country to market another
900,000,000-bushel crop at around
$1 per bushel or better, it would be
an Interesting tribute to this coun
try's economic power. But weather
conditions during the next seven
months, will have much to say about
it."
REFERENDUM WILL
UK INVOKED
Referendum proceedings have
been filed against the three election
measures passed by the recent legis
lature over Governor Lister's veto,
the joint legislative committee rep
resenting the State Federation of
Labor, State Grange, Farmers Union
and Direct Legislation League taking
this action.
These measures, with the num
bers assigned them for referendum
purposes, are:
Referendum No. 3 —Providing
that initiative and referendum peti
tions must be signed at registration
offices.
Referendum No. 4 — Providing that
recall petitions must be signed at
registration offices.
Referendum No. s—"Whitney"
elections bill, legalizing party con
ventions and pledging candidates to
follow programs adopted by these
conventions.
The newly organized Washington
State Referendum League has also
filed referendum proceedings against
the certificate of public necessity
bill, the budget, hill for cities and
counties, the Seattle port commission
bill and the anti-picketing hill.
Secretary of State I. M. Howell de
clined to receive referendum filings
proffered by this organization against
the "jitney bus" bill and the Renick
bill prohibiting diversion of city
funds to other uses, on account of
the emergency clauses affixed to
these measures. Supreme court pro
ceedings will be taken in an effort
to compel the acceptance of filings.
REAL BOOSTERS
For genuine enterprise and en
thusiasm a bunch of Lewiston, Idaho,
boosters take the cake. As the state
failed to make sufficient appropria
tions for good roads, these boosters
have started a campaign to bond Nez
Perce county for $500,000, the
money to be used in the construction
of a paved road with a four per cent
grade up the hill to the state line,
near Uniontown, and for building
roads in other parts of the county.
It is a big proposition and lots of
nerve is required to father it, but
these gentlemen are going about it
with an energy and enthusiasm which
is contagious and promises to win
over the support of many of the
farmers.
After all the farmers probably get
more benefit from the money spent
on the roads than from that expend
ed for any other kind of county work
and a permanent, well constructed
road is always a good Investment. If
this proposition should go through
the people of the Pacific Northwest
will take off their hats to tho Nez
Perce good roads enthusiasts.
