Oregon ian. The old watering trough at the road side near Eola has been replaced by an iron tank of several hundred gallons capacity. The spring above the road has been walled in, and the water is carried to the tank, which rests upon a cement base in such a position that travelers can water their horses without getting out of their vehicles to loosen the bridle reins. The improvement cost $104.75 and was made under the direction of Road Supervisor Southwick. The money was raised by popular subscription in Salem and Polk county. The success of the move for a free library in Dallas is now assured. A meeting of citizens was held in the xiremeu s nan on Wednesday eve ning, and after discussing the plan for a public library in all of its phases, it was unanimously decided to form a local association to carry out the work without further delay. A subscrip tion paper was passed among those In attendance and $40 was pledged for the support of the library. It is expected that this amount will be in creased to $200 by the time the solicit ing committee shall have completed its canvass of the town. Officers of the local association were elected at this meeting as follows Dr. H. L. Toney, president; J. G. VanOrsdel, vice-president; Mrs. T. A, Riggs, secretary. Mayor Biddle, the presiding officer, and acting for the city, appointed the following persons to constitute a Board of Directors: J. C. Hayter, R. E. Williams, H. B. Cosper, Mrs. F. H.' Morrison, D. P. Stouffer and Prof. D. M. Metzger. This Board will meet in a few davs and select a list of books for the library. Another important duty of the Board will be the appointment of a Librarian. It is probable that the Directors will not meet until the amount of money that can be raised for the support of the library is definitely known. Mrs. George T. Gerlinger, who has been active in working up interest in a free library for Dallas, was present and gave a detailed explanation of the plans for carrying out the project. Mrs. Gerlinger is giving freely of her time and money in getting the library established, and will make a thorough canvass of the town for funds to maintain the library after it is once installed. So far she has met with heaity encouragement, and there is every reason to believe that the re quired sum of money will be quickly raised. It is the intention of the association to have the library open to the public before the winter season begins. !NEW t ARRIVALS 6900 Choice line of Wool Fabrics in Dress Materials for Fall A great many novelties in Fancy Effects, Plaids and Checks, also a swell line of Cravenette Suitings.

Uglow Clothing House tfilJ - w Ihe MILL STREET DALLAS, OREGON WILL ENLARGE PLANT New Buildinz Will Be Erected to Accommodate Machinery of Dallas Handle Factory. W. D. Matthews came up from Port land this week and will hereafter devote his time to the management of his hardwood handle factory in this city. He has purchased a lot just across the railroad track from the present factory site and will begin the erection of a large factory building at once. He says the demand for oak handles lis steadily increasing, and enough orders are already in sight to keep the factory running on full time. Mr. Matthews will probably make an effort to enlist capital of this city in the enterprise by forming a stock company and increasing the capacity of the plant. He says there is work enough in sight to keep ten or twelve men employed the year round, and all that is lacking 13 money with which to purchase the additional machinery needed. If his efforts to form a stock company prove unsuccessful, he will put in a plant within his means and gradually develop the business him self. The owners of the burned handle factory at Newberg have given up the idea of locating in Dallas and will rebuild on their former site, having received satisfactory Inducements from the business men of Newberg in the shape of a $4000 loan at low inter est and free lights and water, lbe Newberg factory employs about fifteen men, and Is an industry of great value to the town. Dallas Is in the very heartof the handle-timber forests, and there is no reason why a handle factory located here should not be made an industry of great importance to the town.
