The- permanent fire boat site has been
elected at the foot of East Washing
ton street, and at the meeting of ino
city council this afternoon an ordinance
will be paused appropriating- the funds -j
necessary to the construction of a8ock,
house for the firemen, slip and roadway
and other building that will be required
to make the berth of the George H. Wil
liams, safe and 'comfortable.
i There has been. a. long: aquabble as to
Where the fire boat site should be, and
not until yesterday was it finally de
cided to- select the place named above.
.The city owns the property, and the offi
cials concluded that waa the best point
obtainable for the boat. The old Stark
street ferry used to land there, but all
the buildings that were on the. dock
were burned in a recent Are., i
Although something may be said dur
ing tliU afternoon's , meeting: Of the
council. it is not believed anything defin
ite will be done regarding the city gar
bage matter. It is not expected the
council will take any ' action as to
changes in this regard until some one
makes, a proposition to handle the gar
bage on a contract. It is probable that
money will be set. aside at a near date
for. one or two new incinerators for the
crematory.
The Montavllla and Mount Tabor an
nexation propositions will not come be
fore the council meeting today, because
the papers are not all ready. The Monta
. villa people were prepared, but the
Mount Tabor residents were not quite
ready, and the matter will have to go
over, until the' next meeting.
City Attorney McNary has rendered
an opinion in, the case of the West Side
Suburban Hallway company, but
which has done no work as yet on ita
proposed line from HHlsboro to this
city. At the last meeting of the council
Mr. McNary was asked to decide whether
or not the franchise of the company
can bo revoked because no work was
done within six months from the time
It was granted. His opinion is that the
franchise cannot be revoked on this ac
count I alone, but that in case the com
pany does not begin work in time to
complete its llne.wlthln two years from
the date of granting the franchise. It
may be revoked.
Attorney J. M. Long represents the
company here, and stated today that a
reorganisation took place last Decem
ber 20, and that a new company known
as the Oregon Traction company was
effected. He says the line will be built.
The committee having In charge the
question Qf lower Insurance rates and
the full-paid fire department will make
no report today. Tho work has not
progressed to the point where the com
mittee -feels justified In recommending
anything le8nte as to Insurance. It
has been settled that, a full-paid de
partment will be one recommendation,
but the Insurance matter Is still unsat
isfactory. The committee of investigation on
buildings will maUe.no report, except a
verbal explanation of progress, and will
building ordinance will probably not. be
mentioned at the meeting, as It la not
ready for submission.
INHERITANCE TAX
A KNOTTY TANGLE
The inheritance tax Is proving the
bete nolr- of the deputies' m the offices
of the county clerk and recorder. In
addition to their , dally duties they ' are
frequently obliged, to wrestle with some
problem arlslngvfn connection with the
inheritance tax. In . time thev will
master the routine and their trouble
will have disappeared. One estate, that
of the late Lewis Love, already presents
knotty problems to be aolved, and law
yers are now trying to figure out wfcen
the time for Love's grandchildren to pay
will arrive and what the exemption
snouio pe. ,
In the recording office a complete set
of books - to accommodate Inheritance
tax matters had to be ordered. In the
meantime James 8. McCord, the chief
deputy, is keeping papers filed away In
a private drawer. Only four payment
of the Inheritance tax are ready for
record In this county. A executor of
the John M. Brooke estate, payments for
he heir of inheritance taxes has been

160.29; for Margaretta Brooke, 160.29;
for Thomas Scott Brooke. 1226.88.

Inheritance tax of 176.78 for herself a

Cleveland, March 2. For the first time
In history tho railroads have recognlxed
an electric line, making a traffic alliance
which marks a wide departure in rall-
vnu .uiicniicnu. a no wrnccrn JNew YOrK
excursion committee at it meeting just
concluded at Cambridge Springs, elected
to membership the Chautauqua Traction
company. The action is sensational
since It contravenes a decision made by
every traffic association in the United
States.: There has been a tacit under
standing among the steam railroad traf
fic, association that In no .instance
should there be any affiliation between
the steam roads and the traction com
panies. There ha always been a cer
tain animosity between the two sets of I
nuiroauH, wuicn nap continued to grow
as the.electriQ lines encroached upon the
business of .th. older railroads. These
things being understood the action of
the railroads in the western New York
excursion committee in accepting into
full membership a traction company is
all thc4 inorp remarkable. : (

THE NIGHT BLOOMING
- GARBAGE PLANT
"One of the chief attractions of the
Lewis and Clark fair. : has been over
looked." said Daniel MoAllcn this morn
ing. .. "Few seem to understand 'why the
ite. selected was chosen and fewer still
know of what awaits the visitors to the
1906 oriental fair. - The visitor, to the
fair, will be given a free ride tb the city
garbage plant; even now G...W. Simmons
has plans completed for. tne construc
tion of a spiral, scenic railway that will
carry 1 thousands of , benighted easters
visitors to the garbage Incinerators and
will allow them to whiff for five glad
minutes the odors of the plant. .
"But It is feared mat the chief at
traction of the coming fair may be
stolen and the cunning plans of the
corporation for the edification, of the
curious throngs may be nullified -by the
untimely departure of thj" strong at
traction." ,
"Now there is. Richard Scott of Mil
waukle. .With less public spirit than
I would anticipate from such, a leader,
he la trying to secure this fertile prlxe
for his own. He states openly that the
garbage plant would be received with
open arms by bis townsmen, who would
not only Joyfully, welcome the 60 city
garbage gatherers, but would also fur
nish broad fields for dumping grounds.
LEAGUE BOOTS OF
' A MINIATURE MATE
Wearing a pair of boots that tip the
scales at 38 pounds' IS a mark of dis
tinction which belongs to 'the first mate
of the -British ship Cromartyshire,
which Is lying at the Inman-Poulsen
mill. The owner of the boots would,
not part with them a'f any price. Upon
boarding the vessel the huge footwear
Is visible before 'the man, because the
wearer Is rather small.
Captain Reed says that the great
boots' have long since ceased to be of
more than ordinary Interest to the ship
mates of the man who wears them, but
visitors from shore act differently. They
look at . nothing else but the mighty
"cowhides" Into which the little mate
is snugly ensconced, and innocently in
quire where he got them.
The leather of the boots is almost an
inch thick, and they extend up to the
hips. In sunshine or rain they are al
ways worn, although it requires almost
the power of a donkey engine to drag
them around. The mate Is becoming
stoop-shouldered and hollow-chested,,
but Indignantly refuses to part with
his boots.
"You may know a bit, sir," he hotly
exclaims when asked to don other foot
wear, "but with my boots on I can
skip up the ladder to the royal yards

Sumpter, Or,, March 2. The annual
meeting of the directors' of the Oregon

fice of the company Saturday. The old
officers were reelected, the official roster
being as follows: Bela Kadlah, proprie

president; Frank Baillle, superintendent
of the Columbia mine, .vice-president and
secretary; John T. Donnelly, cashier of
the First National bank of. Baker City,

ager. The name of Kmll Melier, gen
eral manager, of the North Pole mine,
and Albert Oelser of. the firm of The
Oelser-Hendryx Investment company,
were added to the directorate. A divi
dend of 10 per cent was declared for the
year 1903.
Locate Vein at Valley Queen.
A. L. McBwen, the mining engineer,
and one of the owner of the Sumpter
Sampling & Testing works, has Just
completed a survey and locating the
veins at the Valley Queen, in the Cable
Cove district. Work p being prose
cuted now In three different places, and
on a ' more extensive scale than evet
before. It is the policy of Superintend
ent .Gray to. thoroughly develop this
property, and to do so as rapidly as
possible. Heretofore work has been
prosecuted principally on the 'crosscut
for the main lead and on the drift fol
lowing vein No. 4. Now a drift has
been started south on vein No. 1, 4
feet from the portal of the crosscut
The starting of this new drift had the
approbation of Mr. McKwen. Some very
high-grade ore was recently encountered
on No. 4 vein.
It is reported that a deal was closed
In Baker City last Friday whereby tho
Eastern Oregon Mining company be
came the ownfer of the Blue Mountain
quartx claim, formerly owned by E. J.
Godfrey, W. 8.' Taft and Clark Snyde.
The amount Involved in the transaction
is understood to be about 130,000

The most modern and accurate method
of ascertaining the gold value in pros
pective placer ground will soon be put
in operation by the Empire Dredging
company. The macnine not only works
rapidly and accurately, Dut doe not
injure the ground where It is eroplbyed
as the opening will not exceed a six-inch
hole. .It can be driven by It own
power and without damage to the soil
In the fields, lots or meaaowa wnere the
test may quickly be made and the ma
chine moved on without any inconveni
ence to the owners of the ground.
C. H. Cook of Portland passed through
the city yesterday on his way to Burns
for the purpose of purchasing heavy
draft horses. He says there Is a big. de
mand for suclv horses in Portland.
In the suit of E. J', ergman against
3. C. Griffith of Carroll, Iowa, to recover
a debtjof 197.80, the attorneys for the
deferents entered a motion to dismiss
the suit on that ground that the de
fendant is a non-resident. I
Dick Addoms, superintendent of the
Alpine, was in the city yesterday, whete
he secured, an additional force of seven
men, making 16 that are- iraft In 111

'Then there is St. Joluv" and Uni
versity Park. Mr. MoKenna, so, I am
told, has begun e, campaign for this
municipal industry. He alleges that in
peaceful St. Johns, where the hum of
industry sings tirelessly, or in. learned
University Park, where, broad-browed
students carol Joyously, the plant should
be established and add aweet 8cen.ts to
the already large list .of the towns at
tractions. ' If St. Johns can't have a
smelter it intend to have -a smeller.

destruction of the Portland Woolen
Mills, it is not discouraged, but with
fresh hope , twna towards the., city

sweet-breathed thing.' Now the fair
manager must be up ana doing or there
will come a thief In the night and steal
their most cherished possesion, and one
that was, so I am told, to soon have
been used as a top line attraction in
all their advertising. ' For my part I
fhlnk the plant should be kept where
it is until after the fair. Give the east
ern people an opportunity to observe
modern methods in handling waste ma
terial and then if the plant must be
moved, owing to pressing public demand,
why advertise for bids, and may the best
man win." s
as quick as any of you. I prefer me
blawsted boots, as you call them."
Despite his unquestioned attachment
to the "heavyweights," the mate never
goes ashore. Without the boots the
owner weighs 128 pounds; with them he
tips the scales , at 166 pounds.
Some say that he ha an object In
view in wearing them at sea. In the
event of a shipwreck It Is said he could
easily convert them Into life boats, and
perhaps be able to save the entire crew.
An experiment conducted on the quiet
demonstrated that each boot will float
and carry several men. The boots were
made in Australia. There was a leather
famine the year following.
Another object of interest on the Cro
martyshire is a dog which was secured
in South Africa. . In the language of
one' of the sailors: "The pup is a black -and-tan,
with a touch of fox terrier."
He was born out on the veldt near a bat
tlefield, and was picked up by the Berk
shire regiment. He went through the
principal South African campaigns, and
when the war ended accompanied the
soldiers to Cape Town. The Cromarty
shire was In port and the dog was given
to the sailors. He has been on the ship
ever since, and Is now looked upon as
a tar of the first order.
