ing ha had not been entertained In any
finer ranch home in the whole slate
than that in which he met the Merrill
people, and predicted that the lands In
this valley would be doubled in value

ST. ' HELENS, OREGON, FKIDAY,
TREAT ROAD WITH ROCK.
County to Cooperate With 8awmill
Co. In Needed Work.
Klamath Fall Klamath county and
th Meadow Lake aawmill company
are to build a macadam road from
Klamath Falls to the top of the moun
tain on the old Fort Klamath road.
The work is to be done on co-operative
plan, and ultimately the city may
join in the combination.
The proposition made to tho county
is that if the county will furnish the
rock crusher and one man to care for
the machine, th Meadow Lake Mill
company will haul the rock, place it on
the road, roll it down and do all the
balance of the work in connection with
the building of a good roadbed without
other cost to the county.
Tha Meadow Lake people are making
this offer for the reason that the coun
ty has given them the privilege of run
ning a traction engine over this road
to haul the product of the mill to mar
ket in this city. The road leading out
of town toward Fort Klamath from the
city limits to the top of the hill I one
of the worst pieces of road in the
county during the ' winter season. In
the fiat about mile outoide the city
this road gets hub deep in winter and
it is almoat impossible to get through
it with any kind of a rig during that
time of the year.

on July 4, following decision reached
by the Chautauqua committee.

have a sane celebration during the

confetti will be allowed on the ground.

in Easy Won Battle.
Bluefields, Nicaragua, May 28. The
government forces under cover of the
fire of the gunboat San Jacinto, today
routed the Insurgents and captured
Bluefields Bluff. This loss to the Es
trada forces probably ends the revolu
tion.
This morning at 3 o'clock the Ma
dris gunboat San Jacinto began bom
barding the bluff, the troop landing
under cover of her guns. There was
only slight fighting, however, until 6
o'clock, when the Madris forces suc
ceeded in taking the position of the
enemy and the bluff.
The Estrada troops were under com
mand of General Zeledon. The force
of Madris in the engagement " is eati
mated at 500, and that of Estrada at
200.
The Estrada gunboats Blanca and
Ometepe escaped up the Escondido riv
er.

Chavarria, have not yet attacked
Rama, which is in the bands of the
revolutionists.
' General Estrada takes his 'defeat at
Bluefields calmly. He says he intends
to make further resistance. No dam
