Hwlft, and they were Joined In ad dressing the men present by several residents of Heaver Creek and vicin ity. It proved a very euthuslustlc gathering and considerable money was raised for the pushing ahead of the work on the line. In fact more money wa. raised at Beaver Creek and by subscriptions tliut camo In voluntarily on Tuesday than the whole work of promotion and grading done so far has cost. The people of Beaver Creek recog nize whitt tho Improvement will mean lo tho county at large and to tho sorp tion traversal. Whllo tho road will prove a greut convenience to Heaver Creek cltl.ens who wish to come to the city, or to ship their products here, still tho further away from tho count ysi'iit the greater the benefit to be received so (bat from Molulla way there should be added deslro to sue tho road built. In fnct tho further from this city the road advances Into the country the greater benefits that will come to those living In the sec tion to be traversed. Considering these fact, the subscrip tion, from llouver Creek are very flat tering, and then when the promoters stop to consider the many promises of further support that Is to come from this section there Is every Incentive jo rontlmio In the good work of rais ing funds for the additional work that II aeems wise to do In fully equipping and operutlng the line a. a contribu tory line to this city.

FISHERMEN WHO VISIT MILK CREEK FIND ITS SURFACE COVERED. WITH SAWDUST. A quartet of local fishermen were out to Milk Creek for u little 'sport Friday. They had their sport but got few fish, part of which was not their own fault Conditions at certain point, on Milk Creek need attention of the fish com missioner. Below the saw mill there Is a stretch of water for at least a half mile where the water can scarce be seen for a heavy scum of saw dust This has a deleterious effect on fish, and In consequence ha. a bad effect on the fishing. There were also logs and floating debris strewn over tbe surface of the stream to tbe annoy ance of fishermen and to the detriment of the people living In that section. There Is a State law which provides that no sawdust shall be dumped into running streams, and shall not be so strewn that the raise may wash U Into the streams. Tbe condition found at Milk Creek 1. In direct violation of this law, it Is said. So far a. was to be seen on the surface no effort is made to keep the sawdust from wash ing Into the stream, and In some places It Is evident that there Is pains taken to have the dust wash In so that it may float away and save the mill men tbe expense of putting It out of tbe way of the workmen with the least possible expense. An attempt wa. made some time ago. It is said, to put a stop to the pol lution of this stream. The matter wa. taken up before the grand Jury but for some reason It was dropped either It wa. too much trouble for tbe Jury to go and see for themselves or no one took any Interest in placing the evidence before the Jury, In any event the matter wa. not given further attention. A. there is a flagrant viola tion of the law In condition, on Milk Creek, and as the grand jury soon to convene will be sworn to do It. whole duty, it may not be amis, to suggest that Milk Creek receive attention at the coming session of the jury. .
