IN A MOVE designed to give buyers in the Goldendale trad-
area ~ opportunity for better bargains, local merchants this
Friday, Saturday and Monday are staging their first "Dollar Days"
~e.
Virtually every ~ldendale merchant is cooperating in this
program, each inspired with the single purpose of giving shoppers
the most for their money. By their concerted cooperation in
sponsoring these days the Goldendale merchants hope to make
more Klickitat county people acquainted with the trading advant-
~s to be found in this city.
This edition of The Sentinel is replete with advertisements of
merchandise, the quality and price of which meet if not surpass
the competition of outside cities. Read these advertisements care-
fuJly, many of them carry stories of real money saving values on
a~cles you desire and need.
Goldendale's first "Dollar Days" were conceived and created
f~ the benent of Kiickitat county consumers living within this
city's trading ~. Remember, this Friday, Saturday and Monday
are "Dollar Days."
O
We Do Need A Court House
LA~ WEEK THIS county's board of commissioners filed a
preliminary request with the federal Public Works Administration
for an $80,000 court house grant. Their action should meet with
the wholehearted endorsement of Klickitat county property own-
Built in 1888, the year before Washington gained statehood,
~kitat's 50-year-old court house has already been condemned
by the state insurance commissioner's office. Outdated in every
~pect ,the present court house besides being a fire hazard, is
~uited for modern county office requirements.
Within the cabinets and vaults of the Klickitat county court
house and cottage are property records, many of them irreplacable,
for an estimat~ $12,000,000 worth of Klickitat property. Fire,
as it did 50 years ago, could wipe out virtually all these records in
an afternoon.
Other counties, some of them smaller than Klickitat, are now
erecting new court houses. Stevens county only last week let a
contract for construction of a new steel and concrete court house
buil~. Skamania county is working on a project to secure a
new county building.
With federal spending, through PWA and WPA, assured for
another two years and perhaps longer, Klickitat county's commis-
sioners were using excellent judgment in filing their request for a
court house project.
O
The Bight Type Of Sportsmanship
FARMERS AND LAND owners of the Spring Creek commun-
iW, together with officers and members of the Hunters and Anglers
club are to be congratulated on their agreement to open the Little
Kiickitat river tributary for public fishing. Their agreement,
based on an appeal to sportsmanship is seemingly a sensible solu-
tion. Backed by the prestige and influence of the Klickitat Hunt-
era and Anglers club it should also be a workable solution.
Too it is a refreshing thought to believe that in this commun-
ity sportsmanship has advanced to a stage where landowners feel
safe in accepting a gentleman's agreement from fishermen not to
or destroy private property.
In so far as Klickitat county's game resources are concerned
the opening of the Spring Creek to public fishing was an important
move. Long one of the best streams in this area for trout, Spring
Creek has, because it was posted against public fishing, not been
restocked by the stat~ game department.
In the future, as an open stream, Spring Creek will receive
regular plantings of fingerling trout in the state's game conserva-
program. The fine work instituted in the Spring Creek area
m~ht well be carried on in various other sections of the county.
O
That Pea Cannery Idea
WHILE THE KLICKITAT Valley, so far as anything tangible
is concerned, is as far away as ever from the realization of its
~ry dream, an idea has been born that must not be allowed to
die.
M~ny features of the pea production and cannery plan still
must be explained and worked out by practical experimentation.
plantings here last year, recommendations of cannery ex-
~s, and the success of the pea canning industry in the Blue
Mountain area near Dayton, all point to the feasibility of the idea.
However more than these recommendations are needed if
C~dendale and the Klickitat Valley are to see a crystalization of
original idea. This are~t must sell itself to some established
cannery concern seeking virgin territory for expansion. The fact
that ~y~on, hn Columbia county, sold its idea and ultimately its
f~er's peas to the Libby cannery group proves the task is not
less.
If nothing else the idea has awakened the people of the Klick-
itat Valley to two vital local needs--a payroll industry, and a
de~ndable subsidiary money crop for farmers to supplement their
in~ from wheat. Sixty and seventy cent wheat that has taken
fa.~rners two years to produce is driving this latter point home
~r more forcefully.

Why The Of Interest?
NOTICE A distinct change in Portland's attitude toward
of the Columbia river in recent months. It seems
Pcdrtland has decided that her interest in the Columbia
river ends at ~neville and she is concerning herself with the
Willamette valley. It is reported that Senator Charles McNary is
s~ly cool toward plans for the building of the UmatiUa dam
and it is assumed that he is in sympathy with the Portland change
of intent.
It seems strange to us that Portland should adopt this at-
tit~. If any city stands to profit from the full development of
~mbia and Snake rivers it is Portland, it seems to us. The
traffic would flaw naturally through that city. But it is adopting
it ~ ~tfltude now in that respect.---Pa~co HerakL

The directors of the Columbia
Valley & Goldendale Railroad com-
pany had a meeting on last Monday
morning, and effected a consolida-
tion with a company that was being
formed In Pasco by filing supple-
mentary articles of incorporation,
increasing the number of directors
to thirteen, and changing the name
of the Company to Pasco, Golden-
dale & Columbia Valley Railroad.
Some seven or eight men are en-
gaged working upon the cmlrthouse
foundation which is of stone. The
building is to be constructed of
brick and while not an expensive
structure will be an ornament to the
place, and have sufficient capacity
probably for all our wants in that
line. S. P. French is the contractor,
which is a sufficient guarantee that
the work will be done. The next is
the county Jail ~hich is a separate
structure entirely and is to cost
$4,500, the material for which, (thB
iron work} has all arrived at Grant
and awaits shipment to this place.
On last Sunday evening about 9
o'clock Harry and his step-father
Daniel Cram, were taken violently
ill with griping in the stomach and
finally by severe spoils of vomiting.
The family became frightened about
them remained up all night en-
deavoring to allay their suffering,
when alon~g towards morning they
became easier, Ibut Mr. Cram was
compelled to remain indoors all day
Monday so weak was he from the
effects of the terrible strain upon his
system. Harry however was more
fortunate, and although attacked
precisely in the same manner was
able to bB out Monday evening.
They are entirely at a loss to un
derstand the cause of their sickness,
unless it 'was from eating some can-
ned oysters that afternoon, which
possibly contained something of a
poisonous nature.
DIED: At the residence of Mr.
B. E. Snipes in The Dallas April
4th, Mrs. Amy Parrot, aged 73 years.
In the death of Mrs. Parrot the state
has lost a pioneer mother, as she
crossed the plains to Oregon in 1847
--42 years ago. She was the mother
of seven children, Mrs. Ben Snipes
and Elgin Parrott of this city; Win.
Parrott the painter at Portland;
*Mrs. J. J. (}olden, of Goldendale;
Mrs. Pond, of Priest Rapids; E: D.
Parr~it, of Arlington, and J. E. Par-
rott of Ellensburg. Her funeral will
be preached tomorrow at some hour
not yet decided upon. Thus it is
that the loved ones who paved the
way to the New Empire and laid the
foundation for a country that is fast
coming into prominence are going to
receive their reward In the bright
"world bayou d.---Mountatneer.
T. D. Snodgrass, wbn resides on
the Gritfith place near No. 6 on the
28th ult, met with quite an accl-
to run with him. They crossed the
two bridges safely, and came into
town on the full run turned the
corner at Cumming & Cram's and
when Just in front of Benson &
Sbelton's drug store threw him out
on his head and went on. He was
picked up and taken into Dr. Stow-
eli's office, ~vhere he soon swooned
away. It was then on examination
ascertained that his injuries were
quite serious. His collar bone on the
right side was broken, and one end
jam~ed in unde[ the other. ~ is
now at W. B. Presby's rooms where
he will probably have to stay for
sereral weeks. ThB team and buggy,
strange as it may seem, was not
hurt. The traces had come unhitched
*about the time Harry was thrown
out and thB buggy left close by.
After Hill's Job
Judging from .the rapidi~ty caadi-
d~te~ are entering the re~ce for

sentatlve, Knute Hill, Proser's I)emo-
critic tncumlbent, is going to have a

Columbia Development
Striking while the iron is hot

of Oregon to represent them in Wash-

Political Speculatimm
~k)-called wiseacres with an ear to
th,e ground et .the stette Capitol in
Olympia ,have started, a rumor that
former Senator C. C. Dill, of Spo-
loane, would some day like to round
out his polttioal career with a term
as Washlngton's governor.
Senator Dill resigned In 1934 after
several eu¢ces~ful cempalgns for the
Senate. Since that ~lme he has been
politically quiet, though ~is divorce~
wife did wage an unsuccessful c~m-
paign for the congressional post
from Spokane.
Governor Martin holds office until
