RECEIVER APPOINTED


Some excitement was created at Seattle
over the fact coming to liSht that the Sc
attic, Lake Shore & Eastern railroad WIS
in the hands OF receiver, and many
anxious faces were to be seen around the
prominent business centers. 1t seems
that Earle & McCloud, contractors for
that corporation, have become tired Of
promises and are trying to obtain through
the courts something more substantial for
services performed, and accordingly
brought suit against the road before Judge
HanfOrd, who issued an order appointing
W. II. Led2erwood, re, eiver.
1t appears that Earle & Co. e contracts
were completed and the company was
asked to audit the same, but have failed
to comply, and consequently were in
formed that IL the matter was not stgaight.
ened by Friday, August I'd, they would
commence suit, which was accordingly
done.
II was learned from the records at the
court house that Earle 4 McCloud had
brought suit against the road for claim
Of &S7 ,OOJ, and that they asked the court
Judge Hanyord) to appoint a re eiver.
Their aftidavits state that the company is
insolvent and that it is their intentioa to
sell the property and defraud their credi-
tors, and, further, that the interest on the
bonds due on August let would not be
paid.
Chief Justice Haniord, upon presenta-
ton Of the petition, granted it and ap.
pointed as receiver W. Z. Ledgerwood, a
former clerk OF the court.
President Mcdonald, with Judge Burke,
counsel for the corporation, upon being
notified, Immediately appealed to the JUS
tice that the receivership be dissolved.
Ponds were given in the sum of $9J, 100.
and the court thereupon dissolved the re-
ownership, and the case will be heard at
the next term Of court.

Hon. 4. \. Cannon Relates Ills Experience

In a recent interview Hon. A. NJ. Can.
non, Of Spokane Falls, in explanation Of
how that city was built up, said:
"When ! came here in 1873 l had only

myself purchased the townsite. We made
up our minds to either have a city here or
bankrupt ourselves. That determination
made all Of US our fortunes. In 1888 we

alone have given 10000 In cash subsi-
dies. The people here have given over
$4,000 in one way or another. In the
early days Of the town we could not get
lumber, so we ourselves built a saw-mill.

the city and helped ii along. Our news.
papers here have helped in every way.
We propose making the Rs.isW equal to

make ii pay. The first town lots we sold

they would only build. After the North
ern Pacific was completed we found we
needed a road to the Palouse country, so
we built $50 miles Of It with home enter
prise. The C9ur d'Alene mines trade
was wanted, no We built road to them.
The Seattle 4 Lake Shore road was want
ed and We gave sl75.OOO toward II. We
gave $4,000 bonus 10 the Northern,

and now comes the Rockford road which
will connect US with the Canadian Pacific
railroad. We have the termini or advan-
tage Of seven railroads. The water power
Of the falls is 2l4,OOO horse power. The
reason We have succeeded is because we
are enteprising. We wanted people;
when they camp We found them work.
We spent $4,000 on our streets. All
our street railway lines were built by

Saint Peter sits out by the heavenly
gate, his hands on the strings Of a Tyre,
and he sings low song as he patiently
waits for the souls Of those who expire.
He hears in the distance chorus Of song,
that swells at the foot Of the throne; and
he smiles as the music is waited along
and MARBLES this lay Of his own: THERE'S
room in this region for millions Of souls;
It's for those who have suffered the
malady rolls, but the kicker must turn to
the left. There is room for the people who
when they were young persisted in sowing
wild oats, but who doomed up their city
sinew and tongue, and the kicker must
70 with the goats. There is room for the
people who pointed with pride to the
beauty and growth Of their town; who
kept singing its praise till it died; but
the kickers will please ambIe down.
They'd say the music was all out Of tune,
and the angelic robes were hand-me
downs; and they'd send ieweler to the
nun in the moon, to sample the gold in
his crown. So, while there is room for a
million Of souls, who by sorrow and woe
were bertft, we want no complaints Of the
music that rolls, so the kicker must turn
10 the left.
