At first pennies rained in upon the

only drop seml-occaslonally. When
the treasury assumes the proper pro
portions the girls declare they are

K. II. Kcrnoluui Would Not Buy Ynk
ima Iiid ut SLID mi Acre.
F. H. Kernohan, wto travels for tha
Equitable Savings & Loan asoclatlon,
of Portland, Ore., was in Yakima last
week. Mr. Kernohan visited this city
two years ago und he Is surprised at
the many Improvements which have
appeared since that time. At that
time he had Just come west from the
state of Nebraska and was looking for
a location. He fell Into the hands of
a local real estate man who tried to
sell him an SO-acre tract of land on
the school section, about three miles
from the city. In the old Dr. Morri
son place. This land was offered to
the Nebraskan for $150 an acre. He
thought It was too much money to
pay for farm land.
"Why," said Mr. Kernohan, "ybu
can buy a whole farm in Nebraska
for $150.
"This Is not Nebraska," answered
the real estate dealer, 'and you will
get a mighty good deal on this place.
You'd better buy."
"Not on your life. Not for my.
money."
"I now realize my mistake." said
Mr. Kernohan to a Yakima Republic
reporter. "Forty acres of that land
has since sold for $350 per acre and
the other 40 acres at $500 an acre.
Had I bought at the time the place
was offered to me I could have clear
ed up $22,000." '
Mr. Kernohan Is now looking for
something cheap In Yakima real estate.

leaving there tomorrow night at 12:
40 on No. 4. the Spokane flyer, ar
riving at Starbuck at 3:35 a. m after
a run of two hours and 55 minutes.
After a lav-over of 10 hours and
55 minutes at Starbuck the same en- j
glneer leaves that place day after to
morrow afternoon at 1:30 on No. 7,
reaching this city at 5:35 that eve-,
nlng. after having pulled his four j
trains, on two separate branches of
road, laid over 23 hours in I'matllla
and nearly 11 hours In Vtarhuck.
The runs on the Pendleton-Star-buek
train nre vastly different from
those on the Starbuck-l'matllla line,
because of more trains on the main
line of the Washington division. On
the run between here and Starbuck j
there are but few trains and the Spo- I
kane passenger stops at all stations
to take on passengers, while on the
Snake river run between Starbuck and
I'matllla the Spokane flyer has but
few stops and meets and passes a
large number of freight trains, since
that is the main line between Spokane
and I'matllla ami all the trains from
the Washington division pass over it.
These engineers have been on these
runs for many years and are well
known In Pendleton, which they
claim as their home, although they
lay over here but 15 hours every three
days. Mr. Butler has an elegant j
home In the south part of the city'
and his family resides here. Mr. !
Wright and Mr. McEvoy stay at hotels
when In the city, but also claim this
as their home.

ROOMING FLAX INDISTRY.
Willamette Vulley Is Anxious to start
a Flux Mill.
A vigorous effort Is to be made to
establish a manufacturing plant for
the handling of flax in the Willam
ette valley, says the Oregon Sunday
Journal. James Craig, a Sllverton
merchant. Is working on the project
and officials of the Harriman lines
are co-operating with him. Mr. Craig,
who was In Portland to present the
flax proposition to various people who
are interested, said:
"The climate and soil of western
Oregon are Ideal for the production of
flax and the water Is perfectly adapt
ed tj the manufacturing of Its pro
ducts. I have been In correspondence
with manufacturers in Italy and
Scotland and have secured all the
necessary data to convince any busi
ness man or farmer that this proposi
tion Is one that would prove a great
benefit for Oregon. I have sent
samples of Willamette valley flax to
the factory men of the old countries
and they have spun It by hand and
made careful examinations and com
parisons. They say the Oregon flax
Is as fine as any that grows. One
manufacturer Is so Interested that Tie
sends a complete plan for a mill. He
advises that an Oregon mill should
start by confining its product to crash
goods and cordage."

guilty and was sentenced to one year.
It was only recently that Perry

There Is a growing belief among the people of Portland that
some day the great business center of the city will be on the penin
sula between the rivers. The railroads centering there are attract
ing the heavy business such as the manufacturing nnd wholesale.
This will naturally draw a dense population.
It Is gratifying to know that many of our Pendleton citizens own
property at Portland, and In the most promising part of Portland,
which is between the rivers, where the railroads are now fighting
for position. J. F. McCarthy has Invested n limit $10,000 In 'hnt dis
