Benton County owes Takima a large debt, auditor argues
The Prosser Bulletin reports Benton County owes Yakima County 31 861.71 as of June 30 1905 after deductions for a courthouse site and warrants. Auditor Newcomb bases his 19.6 percent of Yakima County valuation figure on this, while Auditor Gloyd suggests Benton owes far less. Also covered are irrigation congress plans for Portland Oregon delegates from Benton County and a land contest in Kennewick, plus local health board formation and a lengthy speech on national justice by William Allen White.
