A Daring Forgery.

II have been duped and you have been
victimized," IL the substance of . letter
from Congressman j. c. McDearmon to
Hon. Eli N. Stone, magistrate, merchant
and ex-mayor, and a recent candidate
for the postmastership at Milan. The
letter reveals q daring forgery which
lost the postoffice for Mr.. Stone. There
were Q half dozen applicants for the
Office, which is presidential and pays
good salary Congressman McDearmon
at first signitied his intention to indorse
Mr.. Stone, and it was settled in the
minds of Milan people that he would be
the next postmaster.
About that time Postmaster-General
Bissell issued his order that no appli-
cant would be considered who would not
give his entire time and attention to the
Office. Mr.. Stone is merchant and
some daring enemy seized this oppor-
tunity to defeat him. A telegram was
received by Congressman McDearmon at
Washington from Mr.. Stone saying that
he would not desert his business for the
office. Mr.. McDearmon accepted 1t as
virtual withdrawal and Endorsed the
present postmaster, he standing second
to Mr.. Stone.
1t now develops that the telegram
from Stone was forgery and the deed
was done in Washington. An investi'
CATION at the Western Union office al
Milan proves that no telegram was ever
sent to Congressman McDearmon, who
writes that he will vigorously prosecute
the forger if he is found, and that he IL

He went there 81 years ago, working his
passage across the plains with an OK
team. He identified himself with the
community by building its first house
and opening grocery. When the rail-
way came and went on, he went with it
and was rich man before he settled in
Evanston, thrifty town near the Utah
line. There he owns the local bank,
herds of cattle and tracts of range, coal
mines and coal and timber lands. His
hobby is horses, and he breeds trotters
on the finest farm in the mountains.
He is married and has four children.
New York is his native state, but most
of his life has been passed in the west.
He was already so much of pioneer in
1886 that he vSas called from his ranch
to 60 to Fort Phil Kearny during the
Indian troubles there. The result was
that he was witlain hearing of the famous
massacre there, when 81 soldiers were
killed by the Indians, and he helped
bury the dead. Despite his unsettled
life in those years. he acquired fair
education and is 9 man of considerable
culture. In religion he is of Methodist
leanings and in politics has always been
Democrat of the straightest sect.

ton.
The aims house valley drain and the
Portland street sewer west of the valley
drain are and have been for some time
in very bad form and are insufficient for
their purposes. The yearly average cost
for sewer repairs for the last few years
is $500; one item alone was 1915 for
flooding certain properties, which have
twice been rescued during the past year
from seriously threatened conditions. A
large expenditure is warranted and
should take place at once, if we would
escape an impending greater expendi-
ture. The same can be said of the I'M
finished Commercial street sewer. 1t is
decidedly financial, as we'll as sani-
tary error, not to extend the sewer from
Center to Maple street, where it will OBJ
tain the volume of water that is necessary
to its proper flushing. More especially
the extension is important because we
are paying ont for dredging the dock at
the foot of Maple street and flushing the
same, something more that an average of
1856 per year which is almost twice the
interest account on the estimated cost of
construction. The basement of the new
Eye and Ear Hospital and certain cellars
in that vicinity, were flooded by reason
of insuficience of a section Of the Waugh
an street sewer. It was rebuilt and
straightencd.
Fore street sewer west of India, is too
small and the Grand Trunk depot and
yard have been seriously flooded and
complaints made. A relief sewer should
be built from point near the Portland
Company's office to the dock. During
the past year we have built storehouse
and enclosed an area for storage. The
odds and ends of ever pipe, the extra
brick, the cement and lumber left over
from any work and any special tools
purchased are carefully stored and made
available for repairs.
Numerous surveys and pl ms @have
been made, but the surveys of Peaks
and Crotch Islands for new streets was
of more than ordinary extent. 1t is
hoped this early survey for main streets
on Crotch Island, while the property
owners are comparatively few in num-
Der, will avoid the expenses and difficult
