Then Dr. Inskeep launched his ! second plan before the council that of. raising a fund gradually over n course of years to build a new sawage disposal plant. This plan was to set aside 50 cents a month to be paid by each water user and lay it aside in a fund for the new sewage disposal plant. Ac cording to present figures this fund would amount to $20,000- a year, and in five years would amount to not less than $100,000. The council also liked this idea, and instructed its finance commit tee to see if the raising of such a fund iri that manner was legal und otherwise feasible. CONTROLLED TODAY SALEM", Ore., Aug. 7.

No action was taken mail d;tlu can be gathered upon the t'losud season, for travelling r;iiho:id -representatives,- in the Yakima and Wenatehee districts. shipper testified that he hud gNfd upon a wign in a Yakima packing house, which read: i No traveling niihoad repre sentatives until Fi-brtmry." It devolopod during the discus sion that the traveling- representa tives were generally clever con versationalists, with appealing per sonalities, bearing belter than the average cigars, and the latest rib tickling Joke, and that the ship pers enjoyed a call from them in the winler, but during the snip ping season, It was something else again. Shippers testified that railroad traveling representatives, always travel in droves, and swooped down upon their office In ma.-.i formation. No one volunteered an explanation of this trait of the craft, but It was agreed that if one called, on a given day, they would all call that day.
