Would the people of Pendleton like
to see Main street and the business
portion of Court street paved with as
phalt, or with bltullthlc material?
That they would cannot be doubted,
for such has been their prayer for
months. And from present appear
ances It seems very probable that
the same is to be granted.
Since the new administration went
Into power street Improvement has
been one of Its foremost objects. At
the caucus of somewhat unpleasant
memory, held at the outset of the ad
ministration, it was then and there
decided to do everything possible in
the direction of street Improvement.
Now It appears that In carrying
out this program the council Is going
to open the game by nothing less than
ordering the paving of Main and
Court streets. While no official ac
tion In the matter has yet been taken
the subject has been discussed freely
of late by the various members, and
the sentiment Is all In favor of the
move.
Just before the opening of the
meeting lastnlght the subject was
discussed by four or five members,
al of whom seemed to accord.
Councilman Renn, of the street com
mittee, declared that In his opinion
there would not be a single remon
Btrance from Main street property
owners should the Improvement now
be ordered. This conclusion had been
arrived at after recent conversations
with numerous Main street owners
who had previously been opposed to
paving. Evidently the present muddy
condition of the street has changed
Jhe sentiments of thoso formerly op.
nosed for all wero said to bs no.v
willing that the Improvement be
made.
The district contemplated for pav
ing consists of Main Btreet from the
hill to the river, and of Court street
from Main to the Byers mill. Should
It be determined to pave Court the
recent ordinance for the macadamiz
ing of that street will be repealed t'.s
Xar as the portion mentioned Is con
cerned.
To carry out the paving of the d:s-
trict mentioned It Is estimated th.'t
the city Itself will be forced to pay
out about $14,000 for the improve
ment of the Intersections and othr
Incidental work. However, while this
Is quite a sum. Councilman Murphy,
chairman of the, finance committee,
believes the amount cart b met y
Issuing scrip for $10,000, the limit of
ndebtedness, and economizing in
other ways. That the paving propo
sition Is being seriously co.istlered
Mr. Murphy admits, and while oiri
cial action is yet to be taken the pros
pect for the Improvement now seeris
much brlgthcr than ever oeiore.
feet of lumber a year will be Installed
In the near future.
Kendrlck is rapidly rebuilding from
the fire of last summer. Mr. Mcin
tosh says this Is the third fire for his
town, and the morning after the last
destructive conflagration, the busi
ness men quickly decided that frame
structures would no longer be tolerat
ed. Handsome pressed brick struc
tures now adorn the city, and they are
the subject of frequent favorable com
ment by all who travel past Kendrlck.
The Gaxette, of which Mr. Mcintosh
Is editor and proprietor, is one of the
oldest papers In northern Idaho, It be
ing now In Its 17th year. Business Is
increasing so rapidly with Mr. Mcin
tosh that he is planning to enlarge his
paper.

ni SINESS IS Ql-IET AT SALEM.
Said by La Fore to lie Due to loin
hiiiatlim of Circumstances.
E. M. LaFore.- a business man of
Salem, has been In th city today for
a short visit while In this part of the
state. He Is In the paint and oil bus
iness In Salem, and has Just finished
erecting a large building which Is
being used by the telephone company
for headquarters.
As to the business condition In Sa
lem during the past fall and winter
Mr. LaFore says It has been quiet
compared with former years. This
he ascribes partly tolhe Influence of
the Lewis and Clark fair, and partly
to the general conditions nil over the
country. That it Is not due to poor
crops or low prices Is proved, he says,
by the fact that the former have been
good all over the valley, and prices
for all kinds of stock, excepting cat
tle, are high.

Beautiful Drama of Humble Life to
Re Seen at the Fraxer,
' Arkansas has often been the them
of, song and story, and no melody
tver written has evolved more genu
lne pleasure than "The Arkansas
Traveler." The same may be said
of, "Human Hearts," which is a strong
story dealing with life In the Arkansas
hills, only in addition to laughter, It
is mingled with heart Interest and
tears.
This season's company secured by
Manager Nankevllle will be far su
perior to any ever engaged to portray
this strongest of strong plays. The
scenic equipment this season will be
entirely new; the past summer having
been devoted to securing new models
and the building and painting of new-
scenery, consequently, mis year,
"Human Hearts" will be pructlcully
a brand new production. It has been
Manager Nankeville's aim to improve
the performance each season and to
this fact he attributes its great suc
cess and lasting popularity.
"Human Henrts" will be seen at
the Frazer theater on February 12.
