Of the city's bridge fund of $400,- 000, $171,193.98 ha already been ex pended, and by the time the Washing ton and Stevens street bridges shall have been completed the total expen diture will be more than $190,000 says the Spokane Chronica. Ts are the figures obtained by a perusal of the books of the city's bridge cost keeper. Labor on all bridges up till April 16 totaled $66,043.22. - Material, equipment and supplies made up the balunce, $f05, 160 38. Of this amount, $145,401.38 Is chargeable against the Washington street bridge. This does not, however, represent the true cost of the new structure. There Is a deduction from this amount of $47,013.94 up till April 1 for work and material on other bridges and other city work, plant, equipment, stock on hand and rock sold to city contractors. This makes the actual amount expended on the Washington street bridge up till April 1, $98,357.44, of which $62,946.61 waa for labor, this Item alone being near ly $8000 more than the original es timate of cost for the whole bridge. It Is estimated that between $15,- 000 and $20,000 additional will be necessary to complete the Washing ton street bridge, making the total cost of this structure nearly $120,. 000. Up till today the cost of labor on the Stevens street bridge is $2920.19, and material $3628.27, making a to tal of $8,548.46. This does not Include the cost of the big ateel girders. which were paid for before the bridge fund came Into existence. This bridge will cost In all about $12,000 exclusive of the girders. Trees for tlie Roadside. Set out trees, adapted to this cli mate and soil, on each aide of the Dubllc thoroughfares leading Into Spokane, thus enhancing the natural beauty of the roads, aside from being of Inestimable benefit to the country In the future, is the plan of H. C. Blair, president of Blair's business college, and an active member of the cltv beautiful committee, says the Spokane Chronicle. Tho pian was proposed to the com mittee yesterday, but no action was taken upon It at that time. "While in Callforna last winter," stated Mr. Blair, "when riding in the rain one day, I noticed a long lino of wagons and vehicles. and judging from the long line I thought it must A contract has been closed for the transfer and Immediate colonization of the lands of the Oregon Military Land Grant company, comprising 600(000 acres In southern Oregon, says the Oregon Daily Journal. The deal was consummated by H. A. Hunter, president of the land grant company. The grant Is taken over by the corpo ration, to be known as the Oregon Valley Land Company of Kansas City, Mo. The consideration Is about $1,500,000. A complete plan of colonization ha3 been adopted, following the lines of the purchasers in the disposition and settlement last year of the San Lula Valley Land company's large hold ings In Colorado. The negotiations between President Hunter of the Ore gon ernnt and the eastern people have been under way for nearly a year and Its successful conclusion means much for the southern part of Oregon west of the Cascade mountains. 0on New Hcjrlnn. The great tract held for so many years by the Hooth-Kelly company, and Inter by the Hunter organization has never yet been offered to the pub lic and has remained practically a sealed book to the people at large, nlthough It has for a quarter of a century been known os a region of vast development posibllltles. Since the Inst year's active campaign of sur veying by Harrlmnn railroad engineers through central and southern Oregon the grant hos come Into notice more than ever before. It will be tapped by the Southern Pacific and the Ore gon Short line. .The grant has for several years been owned principally by H. A. Hun ter and Congressman Andrus of Min nesota. It extends In n strip 12 miles wide from the summit of the Cascades to the Snake river opposite Silver City, Idaho. The portion Involved In the transfer Just mndo begins at the east side of the Klamath Indian reservation and Includes all the lands east of that division point. Reverse Present Policy. From tho day the grnnt was made by congress In 1864 nothing has been done to encourage settlement and de velopment. The new owners propose Immediately to reverse this policy and will encourage settlement by tho sale of tho lands In small tracts. Up to this tlm0 It has remained practically Intact, as It was first set aside by the government ns a consideration to the original company that built the first wagon road through the state of Ore gon. The tract passes through Klamath, Lake. Harney and Malheur counties, and Is an empire ns large as the state of Rhode Island. It embraces scores of fertile vnlleys nnd thousands of acres of grazing lands. Among the sections nlrendy partially settled by lessees ond others who have secured homes on the alternate sertlons held by the government ore the Goose Lake valley, Callow valley. Warner valley, Spraguo river valley, all large, fertile anil well watered sections with soil capable of producing large crops of fruits, grain nnd vegetables. It Is said the Cntlnw valley produces the larg HI If EXCHANGES THE EMPIRE be some prominent person. As I had enn nothins? of it In the morning pa pers I thought it strange and made in quiries. l found that it was tree planting day and that the farmers and otheri had turned out en masse and were setting out trees on eacn side of the road. The line that I had noticed ex tended for 10 or 15 miles. It seems to ni (hat this would be one of the best things that could be done for the Inland empire, and could be worked up through this committee. I don t know what kind of trees would be best adapted to this section, but there are others that do, and It seems to me It could be worked up." Spokane Boys to See Fleet, A special excursion of Spokane cit izens, composed of the city and pupils from the high and grammar schools to visit Seattle at the time of the visit of the fleet, is a scheme proposed by Mayor Moore, says the Spokane Chronicle. "Spokane, as one of the most Im portant cities in the northwest, should do her part towards expressing to the government our appreciation ' of the recognition of the commercial import ance of the Pacific coast." Is the may or's Idea. "The visit of, the fleet to this state will be a patriotic occasion and I should like to see the high school boys, who will be our citizens of tomorrow, participate. "A view of the fleet would serve to Impress both our older and younger citizens with a sense of the dignity of the United States as a naval row er. I would like to see soma organ ization take this matter up and ar range for a special excursion to Se attle." Elgin's New High School. Work on the new high school build ing for Elgin has begun and is being pushed forward as rapidly as Is con sistent with good workmanship, and will no doubt, be completed within the contract time, September 15. The new school building Is to be a 74x93 feet, two story and basement structure, complete with all modern Improvements, and will cost $20,000. The basement Is of sone and the up per part of the building brick, and there will be 10 rooms, with large and adequate hallways. Th ebulld ing will have a steam heating plant In the basement and the heating and ventilating systems will be perfect. Slgin News. est and most luclous tomatoes In the world.

Governor Mead Would nave Crushed Rock for Washington Roads. Governor Mead has announced the appointment of a commission to ad vise with counties and municipalities regarding the establishment of quar ries for the production of crushed rock to be used In the construction of roads, these quarries to be operat ed by convicts from the state peni tentiary, says .an Olympla Item. The commission Is headed by Judge C. H. Hanford of the Seattle federal court, Its personnel being as follows: Judge Hanford, Judge Edward Whit son. Judge of the United States court for the eastern district of Washing ton; Samuel Hill; Joseph M. Snow, state highway commissioner; Prof Henry M. Landes of the state univer sity and state geologist; John W. Ar rasmith, state grain Inspector; Karl Bowers, county surveyor of Benton county, and Samuel C. Lancaster, con sulting engineer of the federal good roads department, stationed In Se attle. "My purpose In appointing this commission," Governor Mead ex plained. "Is to provide a body, repre senting the entire state, which can advise with counties and municipali ties and encourage the establishment of such quarries as that which the city of Seattle proposes to establish at Deception pass. "The commission will also advise with those who are active In this pro ject and who can be of any possible assistance in forwarding their efforts to a successful conclusion. This movement is a thoroughly meritorious one, and I wish to provide the ma chinery for making it general throughout the state." Wenntchee, Washington, is to vote on the proposition of bonding the city for $55,000 to put in a water system. It is proposed to pump the water from the Columbia river Into a high pressure reservoir. The pump will have a capacity of a million gallons every 24 hours. WE RECOMMEND SEXINE PILLS. It makes no difference what is the cause of one's weakness.
