DRAINAQE FOR BEND
The Septic Tank
the Business.
Does
TIIRKK NOW IN QPfilATlON.
No Pollution of tlic RiverPorous Soil
Absorbs Choinlcally Purl
fled Scwnze.
I-'nur septic tanks have bcon con
struccd to taku care of Kciul .sew
age. These lxilong to private es
tnbliKlimotitK. At the Drake resi
dence one has been in use since
last fall. One on the Coodwillic
premise has been in operation for
the same x:rio(l. Drainage from
two hotiseu has been satisfactorly
disposed of there ami n third house
is about to connect with it. At
the I). I. & V. club houses another
tank has just 1k.-c.-ji installed and
Dr. Merrill is completing a similar
plant. Others will be constructed
in different parts of town.
The Drake septic tank wau the
first constructed in Bend. A ca
pacious cesspool had been built but
before it was put into use the septic
tank idea was taken up and Mr.
I Druke concluded to install that
purifying device. Ho did so by
putting a dividing wall in the
chamber previously built. It has
had comarativclv lettle uw but
appears to be equal to any call upon
it
Next n septic tank was construct
ed on the Goodwillie lot to care foH
sewngo from Good willic's bungalow
ami the Gueriu and Lawrence
dwellings. The Bertie ohamhor is
3x4x5 feet and fioin that is a
drain with an open bottom- leading
out under the lawn. Chemical
actioinn the septic ohambcr distroys
the injurious nature of thu sewage,
leaving the discharge quite harm
less This tank has had practical
use all winter, two houses being
connected with it, and has given
complete satisfaction.
The tanks of the D. I. & P. Co.
and Dr. Merrill arc builtonthesame
plans, a chamber for the reception
of sewage for septic action and a
dram from that out into the soil
None of these drains reach the
river and none even polute the soil,
the chemical action in tanks com
pletely freeing the sewage of offen
sive and injurious matter.
SCHOOL BONDS TO HE-ISSUED
Result a Foregone ConclusionSmall
Vote Unanimous.
There was little interest in the
school lwnd election held last Wed
nesday afternoon in the H M. hall.
The result was a foregone conclu
sion and few voters took the
trouble to go to the poll. But nine
votes were cast, all ill favor of
bonds.
Chairman Wiest called the meet
ing of taxpayers to order and on
motion Messrs Wiest, Goodwillie
and Creed M Triplett were chosen
judges nnd Dr. V. S. Nichol clerk
of the election. 1 he poll was open
from 1 to 4 p. in. but only the nine
votes were offered. No women
vqted.
The only criticism of the bond
ing proposal was that the Mini was
too small, the opinion being quite
general that at least $5000 ought to
be used for new building and
equipment. The move for S3500
was well under way, however, lie
fore this feeling was mode mani
fest. The plan which the school board
has in mind is to build a four-room,
two-story school house so arranged
that a like structure may be added
when there shall be need of it, all
making a harmonious building of
eight school rooms. It is not in
tended to finish and furnish more
than three of these rooms this year.
The location of the new school
house has not yet been selected.
Come to llend and (let Licked,

The Bend hall team has de
feated Prineville four times, and
Bend boasts of its . team. Wish
they would come to Ifakeview the
fourth of July and take part in the
$500 tournament to be given here.
They would probably get some of
the snap taken out of them if they
bucked up aguiust I.akeview's toss
crs. , Hurrah for I.akeview. Come

Richard King and John Blo.w
were up 11 1 the homestead of the
former this week and Bloss tried
the fishing, Monday n big trout
seized the hook nnd broke the line
ueur the pole. Tuesday Bloss
went back to get more fish out of
the hole nnd found from a commo
tion among the reeds that the fish
that had broken his line was moor
ed to a bunch of reeds. By the ex
ercise of a little generalship he was
able to land the a-pound trout
and recover his fishing tackle. This
convinced the other fish that it was
tisclccfi to try to escape him and
they enmc to him so fast he was
forced to retreat with a full load in
in a short time. And their flavor
was unexcelled.
"History and Resources of Crook
County" is the name of a 30-page
pamphlet issued last week by the
pupils of the Crook county high
school at I'riiievillc. It was under
the management of Principal A. C
Strange, who, in a prefatory note, ex
presses the hope that the pamphlet
maybe put to good use by sending
outside the state to people desiring
information of this locality. There
arc 29 signed articles. All are well
written and most of the information
is trustworthy. The booklet is
neatly bound in brown, is upon
coatod paper and well printed, and
tlic paces arc embellished with a
number of attractive pictures. It is
altogether a very creditable piece of
work for all concerned in its pro
duction. It sells for 10 cents a
copy.
Mits Huth Reed and Miss Grace
Janes walked out to the Tumalo
last Sunday morning, for the ex
orci'ic and to see the country. At
the Tumalo they sat down on the
mossy bank and raved over the
beauties of the landscape, the
chattering stream, the whispering
pines, the singing birds, the mass
ive hills, the cerulean dome flecked
with fleecy drifts of cumulous
clouds floating like flocks of angels
across the wow, what was that?
Certain sharp pinches down below
brought the attention of the ladies
out of the sky and a hasty exami
nation' brought out the fact that
they had planted their feet in an
ant hill and the lively insects were
resenting the intrusion with much
vim- The intruders lost interest in
the landscape and sought refuge on
a big rock.
Alderman and Mrs. O'Kane left
last Saturday evening for Portland
on business connected wttn their
hotel, now under construction here
WORK ON DITCH CONSTRCTION
Frame for New Flume Completed
Central Oregon Canal.
All the frame work of the big
addition to the Pilot Butte flume is
completed and the floor and sides
will not be laid until the close of
the irrigation season. The orig
inal flume will carry water enough
for the ( aimer. The entire flume
must be dry when the floor and
sides are completed to make it one
big channel 16 feet wide.
The building of laterals and ser
vice ditches between Bend and
Crooked river is proceeding satis
factorily. That work will tie com
pleted in a few weeks. By that
time the rock work 011 the Central
Oregon canal will be so far advauced
that water can be led out a dozen
miles in that channel mid the ex
tension of the big canal out to the
river bed and beyond will go for
ward rapidly. It is ruinous to haul
water so far for a large force. A
large part of the expense will be
saved by leading the water out in
tlic canal to the construction force.
Stockholders of the Arnold Irri
gation Company held a meeting
Wednesday 'night, at which an
assessment wij,s made to meet con
struction expenses to date. About
half n mile of flume is finished
nearly half of the whole and the
enterprise is going steadily forward.
Work of Water Spout.
The water spout has been doing
business again in Central Oregon.
Tuesday there was a storm aud
excessive rainfall in the Haycreek
section in which the telephone line
was disabled aud considerable dam
age done to crops. It is reported
that Heppuer was again visited by
a cloud burst, which repeated the
desolaion of two years ago, though
not on so large a scale. lfive lives
are said to have been lost this time.
Tuesday evening there was a wick-
ed-louking storm in the mountains
t west of Bend. As usual, these
J storms jjave Beud a wide berth.
TALK OF A RAILROAD
Plans to Build to Betul
Taking Shape.
TQQ AUNY RECENT CHANGES
Timber Traffic Will Praw Trnsporta.
Hon SoonMr- Drake's
I d e a f,
A. M, Drake returned home
Monday afternoon after an absence
of about six months, most of which
time was spent in tl-o South with
Mrs, Drake it) search of health
They visited Cuba, lived four
months in Thomasvillc, Georgia,
and spent several weeks at French
Lick Springs, Indiana. Mrs. Drake
is now visiting her brother in Little
Falls, Minn,, and expects to come to
Bend a little later. Mr. Drake
will remain in Bend indefinitely.
"I am glad to sec things so solid
in Bend" said Mr. Drake. "Itw
really a relief to know that the ex
citement induced by big ditch con
struction camps near town has,
passed without doing damage. The
town seems to be in excellent busi
ness condition and I am very glad,
of it.
"From what I am able to learn,
east and west, Bend's chances for a
railroad arc very good. This mat
ter has been all but clinched two or
three times lately. But the rail
road world has been struggling
with important adjustments aud
plans have been changed on short
notice. Railroad affairs cannot
bo said to be wholly settled yet,
but they arc approaching that con
dition. I believe before a full set
tlcment comes arrangements will
be made for putting Bend in rail
way connection with the com
mercial world.
Yes, the Gould interests are
doing energetic work in the West.
I think they will be obliged to
enter the Pacific Northwest in order
to command traffic that the ex
igencies of their cose require. Such
a line will almost inevitably touch
Bend, and when it cames thorc will
be things doing In this region. I
do not think the earning of that
line will be very far in the future,
though it may not be the first rail'
road to arrive.
"Our chiof traffic for a number
of years will be lumber. That is
the great immediate inducement for
railroad construction and the fine
body of timber an the Deschutes is
mighty attractive to the railroads
It will furuish a large volume of
traffic for a long time. The market
conditions are coming to be such
that the railroads will hardly leave
so promising a field untapped. So
a railroad advance to Bend is- likely
to start any day."
Fourth of July Committees,
The Baseball association has ap
pointed Mayor A. L. Goodwillie,
C. D. Brown and Charley Bilyeu as

Fourth of July and the band has

as its committee. These will meet,
with the citizens' committee this
evening to set the ball rolling.
