Front on of the carden "spots of
eastern Washington oomea tha cheering
news that Kannawlck has forced to tha
front In tha column of progreeaion out
lined by tha' advocates of an open rlvar.
Kannawlck, tha enterprising bustling
. little city on tha banks of tha Columbia
haa subscribed tha aum of 13.000 for tha
purpose of assisting in tha building of
a float of steamers that will operate be
tween that auction of tha country and
Celllo, connecting with tha portage road
' and tha steamers of tha Open Rlraf
Transportation company.
. ' A short whlla ago tha apot on which
thta enterprising vlllaga la locatad waa
covered with aaga brush, tha favorite
haunt of tha featlva Jackrabbltt and tha
Xlaat footad coyote.
. r :.' Irrigation Work Wonders,
. Br tha aid of an Irrigating oanal It
has been tranaformad into ona of tha
moat fartlla rarden apota In tha state.
Hundreds of acrea of grain, fruit. vege-
tables and berry farm a now surround a
city of fina brick and atona buildings.
Ha waU built atraata ftllad with a busy
throng or wias awaxe people.
Kannawlck la acroaa tha Columbia

river.- Tha Northern Paclflo tralna paaa
"". through tha city aa alao thoaa of tha
Portland Seattle railway, although
tha latter road ha not aa yat granted
; them a depot. - - ,
Tha question haa been aakad why
Kannawlck supplied with rail faolll
tlea ha raised thla amount for atock
In new steamer. Tha anawar la they
believe tha operation of ataamar will
prore a regulator In tha matter of rataa
aa It ha dona on all navigable water-
rays.
Btal
tatlstlcs recently compiled showing
tha amount of bualnaaa handled by tha
merchants of Kannawlck are aa followe:
During tha year 1907 thera ware re
ceived at tha Northern Paclflo depot too
cars of freight. In addition to .thla
thars war S,t(4 tona received In less
than carload lota. Of the 'carload lota
Z70 tona were from Tacoma. lo from
Seattle and only 40 from Portland. Of
tha laaa than carload ahlpmenta about
tha aame Dcrcentaca aa above were from
Portland.
Had thera been boat facllltiea to Ken-
newlok a large proportion of thla bual
naaa would have been bought In Port
land and a areat savin In rataa would
have resulted. On the leaa carload ahlp
menta a saving of It a ton would have
bean made and on rarloada tha mini
mum aavlng would have been II per
ton, netting a total aavlng of 111,191 In
ona rear to the DeoDle of Kennewlck.
aa foliowa: 1,114 tona leaa carloads at
aavlng of II per ton. I.02: 7.600 tons
with a aavlng of 11 per ton, 17,100,
total aaved. Slf.692. la It not a auf-
flolent Incentive to them to take atock
In rlvar ataamara and la It not worth
an effort on the behalf of Portland to
help and encourage them?

' "Confidence In an unfaithful man In

Bar. , Clarence True Wilson's favorite
text.
Tha Rev. Dr. Clarence True Wllaon,
paator of Centenary Methodlat church
has had hla faith In human nature
aadly ahaken. He aaya he la not ready
to rtve up the fight yet. but he jtaa
about decided to look for Other flelda
for reform than the county rockplle.
Several weeka ago Dr. Wllaon, who
waa greatly interested In the work of
reforming the county's prtaonera at the
Kelly Butte rockplle decided to take one
or the inmatea whoae terma bad nearly
expired and make him foreman of his
ranch, which la located about three
mllea from Montavllla. When the man'a
term waa up Dr. Wllaon paw that he
wm clothed and made decant and told
him to secure three other men and pre
pare the ranch for the eprlng planting.
A few day ago Dr. Wilson went out
' to see how. things wsre getting on and
paid off the men for the work they had
done up to data.
They were grateful enough until the
good man waa well out of alght and
hearing. They then gathered together
luvia auu iiiijjierncnie mey couiu
eecure, came to Portland with them
and aold them and disappeared.
Saturday afternoon when Dr. Wllaon
returned to the ranch he found the men
gone and the toola also missing. A
careful search revealed the fact that
the four men came to Portland under
thje leadership of Dr. Wllson'a protege
and are hiding In thla city. The police
arrested two of the tngratea. C. H.
