North Yakima is the center of thirteen
large and very rich valleys.
It Is the market for the vast Yakima
and Columbia river (rasing ranges.
ft is 0* depot of snppMra for the min
eral regions of the Cascade mountains,
where dozens of streams that are tribu
tary to the Yakima river, hare worn their
way through the rock-ribbed mountains
and exposed to the view of the prospector
almost every variety of mineral known in
North Yakima la situated at the con
fluence of the Yakima and Natchees riv
ers, and thus commands sites lor an un
limited number of factories, whose wheels
may be turned by water power.
North Yakima ia conceded by all an
thoritias to be the natural railroad center
of the state. From the Columbia rivOr
at the southern boundary of the state, to
the Canadian Pacific railway, on the
Dorth.it ia a well settled feci, that there
is but one eel of poeeee through the Cas
cade mountains besides the eoe along the
Wenetchie, and these aB radiate directly
from Norik Yakima.
North Yakima io ra the main bunk
Hue of the Northern PacMe railway, flora
St. Paul to Tacoma.
Seven other tinea of railway an pro
jected to North Yaktenn. Of throe throe
have i-an running on then, via: The
Waahißitton Central rood bora Cheney
acrooo the Big Bend, completed and In
lull operation, 40 mile* to Davenport and
now being extended to North Yakima;
thcOray'a Harbor end Yakima railroad
now being graded Iran Hoqoiara toMoo
teaano, and to be extended through Cow-
Ill* para to North Yakima; the Yakima,
Klickitat d Vancouver railroad, with cam
running ea far rathe Lewie river coal
miner, and the eilanaioa to la rapid.
Thua it will he earn that while North
Yakima la on the main line of toe N. P.
K. R., three road* are already being actu
ally operated that will noon form a Inac
tion with the N. P. at North Yakima.
The climate of Yakima county ia pecu
lalr, being mild and healthful, free from
late apriag froau and early fall froau, and
many special crops that are very profit
able are grown there, which cannot be
produced elaewbere in the elate. Among
the common etapla crape of the county
are tobacco, hope, broom corn, corn, al
falfa. peannla, tweet potaloaa, melon*,
paache*. grape*, prune* and all aorta of
large and ipacial fruit*. Even cotton baa
been matured.
The Yakima natural mineral water ia
now chipped in bottlee all over the north
west, and in preferred in famed mineral
water* ho* tks east. The epriug* from
which thara watara Bow number ranay
doc ana, both warm and cold, and they
are aitnated in charming groves of oak
Inlerapanrd with evergreen foeeat trees.
The elevation of the spring ia WO fart
above the city, and all the aurreundingo
make op the ideal rammer resort.
In four yeara from the time that thia
beautiful ideal city was especially laid
out ra the future capital of this great
rtata, it has growa from nothing to a city
of lA' aunts, with solidly built brick
business blacks, superior public brick
school houses, a large Catholic academy
of brick, two One brick hotels, brick and
■tone churches, rad everything to make
up a rartwiptlltan, modern piece la
which the whole mate may always feel a
juot pride.
The peaplo of waalarn Washington, ia
all justice and fsirnsas, recognise the Just
aera of the Intention of the population of
the elate to locale the capital mat of the
mountains. To think for a mament that
the eaad dsasrt of Fasco, on the extreme

There Is no possibility of any branch

The mountain that snch a road would
have to cross to the Columbia is, accord
ing to Got. Stevens’ official report, 1170
feet higher than the N. P. railroad tunnel
through the Cascade mountains, and tha
approaches to the dividing ridges are
short, steep and impracticable.
The streets of Ellensburgb are narrow,
without ahade trees or running water,
and there is not a lawn nor plat of grass
nor garden in the village.

F. D. Nash in Watervide, New York,
Timet. The day following my arrival
here I took e horseback ride through some
of the hop field# lying near the city. Ow
ing to the lack of snow last winter end
the long dry spall this summer, some of
the yards on laud where they depend
upon sub-irrigation will not produce a lull
crop; but in those yards watered by
ditches the crop is excellent. I went
through one yard of about ten acre# that
will produce probably 15,000 pounds of
bops. The branches hung down so low
that I was forced to stoop almost continu
ally to get through. I could find no
signs of vermin or blight. The hope
which are developing finely hung down
in greet clusters. On the runners, which
have covered the ground in this yard
since they were cultivated last, there
were growing as fine hope aa those on the
poise.
About sixty bales of seedlings grown In
this vicinity were shipped yesterday to
Milwaukee. The price paid was 14 cento.
The picking of the late crop will begin
about Heptember 10. Moot of the picking
is done by the Yakima Indiana, whom
reservation lies four miles south of ns
They pick ia single boxen which hold
twenty bushels of green hope or about
thirty pounds dried. The price paid for
picking ie |1 per box. Judging from the
samples that I have seen the hops arc
picked cleaner than In Oneida county.
The crop off the coast promises to be of
fine quality, a little but not much short
of that harvested lest year.
Some of the finest fruit that I have ever
tasted ie being daily brought into this
market from the surrounding country, all
of which finds a reedy market ia this
vicinity. lam told that an acre of land
will grow 1000 melons and that they are
worth 10 cents apiece. Rome of them
weigh as high as 50 pounds. Think of
sitting down in front of a 50 pound
melon. Doesn’t It make your mouth
water?

Walla Walla Staletman. We have be
fore made mention of the experiments of
Mr. W. H. Reed, of the well-known Arm
of Reed A Co., groin merchants, in the
propagation of different varieties of wheat,
his endeavor being to discover which
variety of wheat was beet adapted to this
soil, climate and methods of harvesting
prevailing in Eastern Washington and
Oregon. The Introduction of the bine
stem wheat by Mr. Reed has proven of
great benefit to our fanners—more es
pecially to those whose lands are situated
away from the mountains, where there is
a comparatively light rainfall. On Eure
ka Plat this season, for example, there
was very little club wheat grown that
was merchantable, the majority of the
club being too badly shriveled lor milling
wheat, whereas the fields in bine stem
all yielded from fair to good crops. There
is no doubt that the bine stem is the beet
adapted to the lands situated sway from
the mountains, where the rainfall is large,
of all the wheat so far introduced.
Because the blue stem ie better adapted
to oar country than the club or the fife
wheat, H does not follow that there is no
more profitable wheat for our fanner* to
grow, and with that view of H. Mr. Beed
has for two years bees experimenting
with fourteen varieties of wheat, which
he baa obtained from different parts of
the world. Several of theae varieties he
secured from Prof. Blount, the most noted
scientific wheat grower of the United
States, with whom he has bees in corres
pondence for two years on the subject of
wheat growing, end he has also received
assistance to some varieties from the U.
S. department of agriculture. But, that
bfas ex pari menu might ba the more thor
ough, Mr. Reed, some three months ego,
east to Messrs. Viimonn.Andrieux A Co.,
of Paris, France, for eleven more varieties
four of them being selected by the Paria
firm as best adapted to the climate, soil,
rainfall, method of harvesting, etc., as
laid before them in elaborate detail.
These eleven varieties, which were ob
tained at no small cost, arrived in Walla
Walla Thursday.
There is not much that can be aaid to
describe the grains received here, further
than that they are mostly of the white
variety, and differ in form as to length and
fatness. The characterises of the grains
received from Tllmorin, Andrieux A Go.,
are described as follows:
Bornean. A winter wheat. Straw up
right, stiff and rath ir short. The grain
white end big. There are lew wheats
that give ee large a yield without bending.
Matures early. Especially adapted to
rich soils.
Richalla. From Naples. Winter and
apriag wheat. Straw white and tell,
tirain white, large, elongated, and very
fine quality. Rather aeaaMvs to cold
and ao only eels to raw in the early apriag.
Adapted to laada of moderate fertility.
Zealand. Came from Italy, though
probably imported bora New Zealand
An autumn and spring wheat. Straw
white, tell and Wrong. Two husk* ate
long and bloat. Grain white, long, and
very full. A good yWder.
Tramp. From England. A winter
wheat. The straw br tall, strung and
upright. The ear white, long and rather
looaa. Without requiring too much care,
it ia a very flue, full, heavy grain, and
holds out well against all diseases. It
turns out wall iu ail lands of middling
fortuity, but Beam* to prefer those which
an raft and slightly calcareous.
White Victoria. From the Baltic. A
winter wheat. Stem white, *tig, tad up
right. Praia white. Bulled to good
lauds and lands of medium tenuity. It
ripens ia a hot, dry sammar without
shriveling, and yields weU.
White Flemish. From Flutters. Win
ter wheat. Straw white, straight. Wrong
and grow* high. Grain white, long fall
and stout. It la a white wheat, brought
toil* highest degree of perfection; It la a
magnificent variety of wheal, extremely
productive and giving a grain of superb
quality. It is the result of re lections car
ried on lor a long time. It la one of the
heat yielding wheats. It Is aapsciaUy
adapted for good Mils ia temperate and
wet climates.
Hunter. From Scotland. Btraw white,
tall, thin and supple. Grain white and
decidedly long. Very productive and re
markably hardy, it being Ilia least Sanaa
live to cold of all the white wheats.
Dora not require a very fertile anil.
Besides there, all having moreorleaa
qualities to recommend them ter certain
localities or methods of farming, than are
tbs white Hungarian d'Odraaa, de Sidle,
dn cap a large Wrdls. The result of Mr.
Reed's experiments on 62 varieties of
wheat must be of great value to the com
munity. Why can't aome more of our
farmers make experiments? Let same
one experiment with grara, aome an com,
aome on trees ter lancing, potatoes, etc.

“Nature has made here a besntitul plain,

Dayton, Wash., Sept. 6. 1889.
Editor Herald : How do th« republi
cu» of Yakima county like it? How do
tboee boneat old republicans, who believe
the republican party was organised to
protect the rights of man and wage a
ceaseless wv on oppression and tyranny
and class-legislation wherever found or
under whatever pretense it manifests it
self, like to have that unscrupulous dem
agogue, that tool of the railroad, for the
first governor of the proud state of Wash
ington?
Do the honest republicans of Yakima
remember 1884? Do they remember that
they elected three delegates to attend the
territorial convention at Seattle by an
almost unaiflmous vote? Do th*7 remem
ber that a half-doaen railroad republicans
walked on! ot that county convention and
elected themeelvee delegatee to the terri
torial convention, because the delegates
legally elected opposed the Northern Pa
cific land grant and demanded its forfeit
ure, as every man claiming the least
principle of common justice did? Do
they remember that this same Ferry, who
was spumed by the republicans of King
county from tbeir councils and who then
shamelessly bought his way into the
Seattle convention, was made chairman
of the committee on credentials and with
out investigation, without an effort to
know the truth, and at the dictation of
Railroad Attorney Mi-Naught, seated the
bhgus delegates for your county and open-
Sd the floodgates of a political revolution
which caused the republican flag to droop
from every flagstaff in the territory and
tent the democratic boats marching, from
Pbrt Townsend to Spokane Falla, to the
music of "Free Homes" and the "People's
Rights." This man Ferry and his mas
ten said, wrote and repeated it from
every hired paper and every paid speaker
that no mao could ba a republican and
oppose the enrroachmenta of the railroad
on the people's lands, rights sad liberties.
And although the republican national
platlonn at that very time atromdy op
posed land grants and demanded the for
feiture of all unearned lands, these un
blushing traitors to the true republican
principles declared that no republican
dare oppose the grant to the railroad—to
do ao was to bring down on his head the
wrath of the powers that wielded the
party machine like a poppet, and drive
him from the party, branded as one who
would not obey orders.
Hare Yakima republicans forgot these
things and are they willing to lay bare
their backs to the party lash and be
whipped bach like a “galley slave,
aronrged to bio dungeon ?“
If the spirit of liberty has not been
crushed out of them—if the blood of
Washington, in whose honor this great
state is named, still courses through their
veins—they will speak In October and
bury Ferry in a political grave deeper
than “plummet ever sounded," and
teach party bosses and railroad plutocrat*
that the people are not yet slaves; and as
ter Truth, It “liveth and reigneth forever
more.” Axbuca> Crruuw.

regarding tha character ol T. L. Stiles,

and cites ilia court records to prose tha
charges. While the accusations made
carry with them the appearance of troth
the court records win occasionally give to
a litigant a character arhich his actions
do not Justify, and In this instance Hr.
Btllee may be gulhieee ol the charges
made against him, but be that-sa It may,
the people cannot afford to place on the
supreme bench ol Ibia state a man arho la
arraigned for eo serious a crime as ember*
element or against whom there h tha
least quest 100 as to his honor and Integ
rity. The following la from a Taooma
correspondent of the Ortlng Oracle;
If there Is any department ol tha stale
government which, a bore another, needs
to be kept clean and pure, it Is the Jodi. 1-
ary. In the coniftcts and contentions ol
political organisations, factions and Isnda,
the people hare toned to tha Judiciary at
the final arbitrator whan right may be
maintained and wrong repressed. The
subservience of the esecutive department
or the debauchery of the legislature, while
deplorable, la easily remedied. Not to
with the Judiciary, lor hart the moral or
social teiut permeates the whole body and
destroys Ilia framework of the body poli
tic. The Judiciary in its eery nature
should be oon-politial. Mo man, simply
because he lias a party label attached to
him by a political convention, should be
elevated to a Judicial position. No patty
haa a right to demand ol its membera
support ha an an worthy nominee for
judge. Loyalty to the public welfare
should be above party laalty.
Of the names peeseolad to the public by
the Walla Walla convention for support
as judge of the supreme court, one there
is who cannot caper* the suffrage of those
who esteem an honest Judiciary as of high
er importance than mere party success. -
In the district court there ia now 'pend
ing against T. L. Stiles, one of the can
didates lor supreme Judge, two very ugly
cases. In each Stiles ia charged with
having done certain Ullage which, ia tha
eyes of the public, constitute no lets a
crime than that of embeaalement. They
charge him in these cases with having re
ceived at sundry times while residing in
Arisona large sums of mousy belonging
to the estates ol Jamaa If. Toole and
Hudson A Co., and that he converted the
same to bla own use and ‘now haa the
sum of 110.000 or mote in bis possession.
The conversion ol a trust fund by tha
trustee ia nothing lass than embattle
ment, ami before Hr. Stiles mounts'the
chair ol Justice he should make clear
tbase charges in Starr’s and Samaueigo't
complaints.
Judge Barnes, of Arisona, ia aanittried
before him, in which tttilee was defend
ant. found and adjudged that Stilaa bad
received and misapplied over S6OOO In
longing to the James H. Thole aetata and
ordered him to repay' the money, bnt
Stiles failed to comply with the orders ol
the court and quietly left Arisona and
came to Washington Territory where be
now livee In ease, owning considerable
property that ha purr baaed Boon after hla
arrival in Taooma.
A few days before the republican prim
aries were held in Tacoma, Thomas L.
Nixon was actively pushing Stiles for
judge of the supreme court, but the odor
of Arixona matters began to arise when
Miles’ friends withdrew him. The ring
gang, marshalled by Nixon and bis ward
strikers, did better than they hoped for.
As a decoy they gave out that Judge
Evans was to bo the candidate for
supreme judge and with this understand
ing they went to Walla Walla. True to
the instincts that actuate men of no prin
ciple. the gang no sooner reached Walla
Walla than they dropped Evans for a
more pliant tool, and Miles’ name now
appears on the republican ticket.
It remains now to bo seen whether
party ism or Assericanism rules the peo
ple of the new state. No man with the
breath of suspicion upon him should ever
reach the honorable position of judge of
the supreme court.
Republicans cannot afford to choose a
dishonest man for judge. Better none
than a man of questionable character.
