The editorial contrasts primary year carnage with a belief the upheaval will fade. It likens reforms to early autos and Wright brothers flights, notes byproducts like bad manners, and hopes the odor of politics diminishes. It also cites good roads as vital for education and remarks on Kennewick celebration funds and Prosser rivalry.
