SIRVKYING FORCE TO
BE DOUBLED AT ONCE.
This Is Sooner Than Was Expected,
and the Cost of the Survey Will Be
Less Than tle Earlier Estimates
State Will Defray a Portion of the
Cost and Perhaps All of It Judge
Ellis' Order Is Not likely to Be Va
cated, and the Milton Water Dispute
Progresses Amicably.
Hon. Will R. King of Ontario, has
been here for a week past attending
the session of the supreme court and
attending to matters pertaining to the
famous Milton water suit In which he
Is counsel for the plaintiff.
According to Mr. King the force of
men now at work making the hydro
graphic survey of the land Involved in
the suit Is being doubled by State En
gineer J. H. Lewis, and It is expected
that the work will be completed some
time during January. This Is much
sooner than has been previously re
ported. Also the cost of the survey,
when is now placed at between $2500
and 13000, Is less than what has been
previously estimated. Of this amount
a portion Is now being borne by the
state, all of the stream gauging and
measuring being done at the expense
of the state. Also, there Is a possibil
ity that an act may be gotten through
the next session of the legislature,
whereby all of the expense of the sur
vey will be met by the state.
In view of the fact that Attorney
General Crawford has signified his de
sire to have the state made a party to
the suit, it is generally held that the
matter of the survey is settled, and
that the order of Judge Ellis, order
ing the survey, will not be vacated.

CROSSED WILD GEESE,
Dr. W. R. Campbell Has a Freak on
Ills Cold Springs Farm.
Three years ago Dr. W. R. Campbell
found a nest of 13 wild goose eggs
on the Columbia river, 15 miles from
his Cold Springs farm and wrapping
them In warm sand and feathers, he
carried them home and set them un
der a hen. where they were hatched
out a week later. Every one of the
11 eggs hatched and he raised a fine
flock of wild geese.
He crossed the wild geese with his
tame geese at home and this year has
some half-breeds which are the most
beautiful and the oddest fowls lmag
inable. They stand up erect, have
considerable black on the backs and
wings, and make an outlandish noise.
which Dr. Campbell says scares his
hogs off the ranch whenever sound

At the 4 o'clock meeting of the
commissioners which was held Sat
urday for the purpose of formally
signing the agreement with the O. R.
A N. company, a rnther exciting tilt
occurred between the commissioners
and Colonel Raley, who was repre
senting the railroad company. A a
result it looked for a time as thought
negotiations were going to be broken
off completely.
The difficulty arose over the matter
of rebating the company for the pen
alty and Interest which it had paid
when it settled the tax upon its prop
erty other than the road bed. This
tax they had also allowed to become
delinquent though it was in no way
Involved in the tax dispute. Conse
quently, when they made the pay
ment, the 10 per cent penalty and in
terest at the rate of one per cent a
month was added, thus making the
total amount paid about $9000.
In making the final settlement Sat
urday afternoon Colonel Raley Insist
ed that under the offer made by the
railroad company all penalties were to
be thrown out, and that interest at
six per cent was to be charged. Con
sequently, he maintained that a rebate
should be given for the Interest and
penalty Included In the $9000 which
had already been paid. However, this
the commissioners declined to do, as
they held that the railroad company
had no one but themselves to blame
in the matter, as they had wilfully al
lowed that portion of their tax to be
come delinquent. At this, proceed
ings were brought to a halt by Colo
nel Raley, who declined to accept that
view of the matter. However, after
consultation with Attorney Spencer,
who was in the city, ne decided to let
the matter go, and during the evening
the commissioners were called to
gether In the office of Carter & Raley
nnd the case was finally adjusted.
