AMONG THE
OF
INLAND
Fortunes In Spokane Bridges.
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

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

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

FOR STATE QUARRIES.
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. If it be a
tonic that is needed, Sexlne Pills
will do more, than any other tonic.
They are the one tonic that strikes
at the bottom of all weakness, the
nerve centers. They send new vital
ity bounding through the body, pro
ducing a glow and tingle that revive
the languid energies of youth. Sex
ino Pills begin by bringing quiet re
pose to fluttering nerves and Induc
ing restful sleep. Trice $1 a box, 'x
