WASHINGTON, fc. C, May 21.
Tho Bullingcr iuvostigatlon litis cost
th'o Rovornmcat at loast $32,500 for
printing, payment of stenographers,
nnlcnfcc for wituooscs and liko ox
POubcs. Chairman Nelson estimated
today that miscellaneous expenses
will amount to $15,000 additional
and that Uio cost of printing nhout
7000 pages of testimony will cost
$17,500 moro.
Tho investigation is unique in tho
history of tho country from tho fact
both "prosecution" and "defense,"
with tho exception of tho attorneys'
fees, are financed by the government.
Tho cost of legal talent, however, is
bonio by those involved in the in
quiry who found it necessary to be
represented by attorneys at tho hear-
ings of tho investigating committee.
Another feature of the investiga
tion that tho government, in addition
to bearing tho brunt of the cost, is
throwing its archives open to in
spection of attonieys acting for men
who now arc out of official lifo.
Tho cost of bringing witnesses to
Washington alone was a large one.
A number of the witnesses came from
Seattle end others from ts far us
Alaska and Porto Rice.
Besides spending money, tho gov
ernment gave a great deal of tho
timo of its officials and employes to
tho investigation. Whilo tho sen
ators and representatives on the in
vestigating committeo wero able to
attend their other duties in congress,
many officiate of tho government
were taken from their taski to tes
tify before the committee.

SPOKANE, Wash., May 2L It is
problematic as to what action will
be taken on a resolution which was
introduced in the city council last
night for submission to a vote of the
people, of the proposition of whether
a franchise shall be granted the Mil
waukee and tho North Coast rail
roads to enter Spokane with or with
out a terminal rate provision. The
resolution also provides that the
railroads deposit $75,000 for ex
penses of tho election, any portion
unexpended to be returned to the
railroads.
The resolution has been referred
to the committeo of ways.
If the resolution passes an elec
tion under tho referendum nenlinn nf
the city charter will be held. If the
resolution fails, the council must de
termine tho terms upon which the
railroads may enter the city, and
these terms will not include the ter
minal rates.
PITCHER CARSON BOUGHT BY
THE VERNON AGGREGATION
LOS ANGELES, Cal., May 21.
Pitcher Carson, -who went to the
Chicago Cubs from Portland this
Spring, is to become a member of
the Vernon pitching staff, according
to Manager Hogan's announcement
today.
Carson was ono of McCredio's
most reliable heavers last year. His
work showed much improvement
-toward the end of the year and he
was "gobbled" by Chance, of the
Cubs.
Although the former Beaver did
great work on the Cubs' training
trip and performed creditably the
few times he eot on th fJrinr i;n
after the season started, he was not
able to nose out any of Chicago'3
-crack heavers for a regular berth.
Carson was secured by Hogan by
-direct purchase. It is expected that
he will roport hero within a week.
His acquisition will give the Brewers
one of tho most formidable squads
of gunners on tho coast.

A HOME AND AN INCOME
In order to provide an efficient and reliable force of uien
to operate the Saw Mill, Planing Mill and Box Factory at
THREE PINES, ORE.
I have been commissioned to sell a large number cC 5
and 10-Acre Tracts adjoining the townsite, giving special
inducements to practical wood workers. These tracts are
located one mile south of the famous Tripplet Cherry Or
chard, two miles west of the S. E. Brune Apple Orchard,
one-half mile north of the tract now being improved by
Win. Rolfe, foreman of the Burrel Orchard at Medford,
and commence within one-quarter of a mile of the depot.
The district is free from frost, as can be proven by every
fruit tree within the district, where smudging is unknown.
$60 to $150 Per Acre
10 PEE CENT CASH, 3 PER CENT PER MONTH
LUMBER FOR BUILDING SOLD ON EASY TERMS
This is a sub-division of an improved ranch; all the higher-priced
tracts having valuable improvements ono -villi
a considerable bearing orchard nearly all partly cleared.
Think of it! The best of JYuit land, adjoining a steady
job at good wages and right near rail transportation, on
such easy terms. $30 cash and $10 per month will han
dle five acres, and if there should be no work in the mills
and you put in your time improving the property yjar
payments will be extended. This will be put in the w. i
tracts of experienced mill workers. No chance to lose.
You can make more money with your idle time than you
can make with a steady job. The increase in value will
be more than your wages. This is the One Opportunity.
This Land Will All Be Under Irrigation
as soon as the project now being arranged at Grants Pass
and Merlin is completed it lies well below the water Hu3.
The prices have been placed at the lowest possible figure,
so as to place them within the reach of men who will work
in the mills, and such men will be given the preference,
and in order to accommodate them the sale will not com
mence until Monday, May 23d, but a Special Excursion,
with reduced rates from air points north of Ashland, vill
be run on Sunday, May 22d, when reservations may bo
made. Tracts not sold June 1 will be raised 10 per oont
