I TO PURIFY THE WATER Action of the Mayor and City Council Will be Appreciated Mayor Smith informs the Republi can that steps will be taken immedi ately toward cleaning the city res ervoir, analyzing the city water and patrolling Catherine creek for any conditions that tend to pollute that stieam ,"and the action is timely and will be appreciate'! by tho people of the city. At this seaso'.i of the year there danger of tho water becoming con taminated in the source of -the city .supply, and it is meet and proper that steps be tuken toward guarding the health of the city in this respect. The pollution of Catherine creek by residents along the stream or by oth ers should be met with prompt ac tion on the part of the city autoritics. There is a law against the pollution of the public streams of tho state and the city authorities will see to it that such laws are enforced whore the evidence is conclusive. Union Republican. Livery Barn as Garage. Commenting on the fact that La Grando's livery stables 'have been consolidated, the Record Chieftain says: The same situation is found in En terprise. For year3 three livery stables were open and there was busi ness for all. Then times got dull and they had their ups and downs until recently when S. L. Burnaugh closed one for good and has nearly torn it down. 1 The .other was closed for months until Fred D. Rinehart had need for it in an emergency, and so of late he 'has conducted both. For ordinary trade one barn is enough. This is particularly striking here because so much produce is hauled here for shipment from points as far as 50 miles distant, and it has to come in wagons. Also, owing to the rough nature of the country and the sparseness of the population, many of the roads are passable for automo biles only part of the year. But farm ers have been the largest buyers of cars this season, and they are using them more and more, leaving their horses home. And while one man can handle the town's "livery business, three gar ages are flourishing. So goes the would even in the old stockman's par adise. Through Traffic Via Union . The volume of through traffic via Union this year is the greatest in the history of the place, and prom ises to be even greater year by year, says the Republican. There has not been a day in the past three months that one could not count from three to six big through cars passing down Mnin street in Union. These cars come from many states, with desti nations far away as a general thing. There is no question about the in roads made by automobiles on the railroad traffic. Union may not be on the main line of railroads, but it is certainly on the big transcontinental' highway for nutos, and when the gov- , ernment military road is built through I this part of the state, it will probnb- ly pass down the Main street of Un-' ion. . I New Wheat at 80 Cents ; A crop of the new whoat was contracted yesterday at 80 cents by L. W. and C. A. Riley, operating as the Enterprise Grain company ,- says the 'Record-Chieftain.

Enterprise Laundry Progresarx An nuto delivery truck with the words "Eaglo Cap Loundry' paint- . ed on the sides appeared in , town ( yesterday, ready to start business - for the new concern which will be ( opened here shortly, relates the En terprise Chieftain.
