COMMERCIAL CLUB ACTS ON LOCAL SUBJECTS Moves Toward Improvement In Light Plant; Interest In City Charter. 'Jhf club lunchoons in this lty on each Frldny noon continue to bring out n representative crowd and thlugii lu gonorul are dlscusscil. Yes terday wuB no exception. Mr. Trau- gott was In chargo of tho discussion on yesterday and several itublcctn. woro brought boforo thono present, tho most Important being tho irri gation projoot. Judgo Orant Thomp son, ono of tho directors of the dis trict, was present but could give no additional information as to prbgresa than had been told before. However, others discussed Irrigation in a gen eral way, among them being Chas;. M. Faulkner who had visited Lake view earlier In the week where tho Qooso Lake project has rccontly bean Inntallod. Mr. Faulkner was Inform ed by people over ther that tho cropa under tho projoct thla season would bo sufficient to pay tho cost of con struction. Thfit'o tho report wo havo from practically every project that has boon Installed, yot wo have peo ple who do not give such undertak ings tholr nctivo support. Tho fair was also given nomo con sideration during tho luncheon. A business session of the club was, hold at tho club rooms last night at 8 o'clock. Tho attendance was not what It should have bean.' However, those who did attend showed a lively Interest In the affairs under discus sion nnd some dollnlto action wan taken upon subjects of particular Im portance. Tho 11 rat matter to consider nt tho evening meeting wus the advliabll Ity of employing n paid secretary. It was thought prosont conditions did not warrant it high salaried man to tako euro of tho club nnd that a tem porary secretary would answor tho purposu until things developed moro. Charles W. Ellis was elected to act aa secretary for the present. It was necessary to hunt up somu lamps before tho meeting could bo called to order and thin naturally brought' up tho subject of the light service.

Tho city chartor was given con sideration. Tho prosont charter is admitted to Iks antiquated' and If mudo workablo will require numer ous amendments, Tho charter hux been printed in pamphlet form'nnd. haa been distributed, among Interest ed citizens for tholr perusal nnd com-. ment. Committees havo boon .up pointed by tho council nnd tho club to tnko tho matter up and from tho expression of thono who took part in tho disrusBjon J.itU night It is nlmoiit assilred a now chartor will bo mudo for llurns.
