Of the business is it always has been, and with
the poor facilities of transportation that we
have, 1t Is quite evident that they are the best

Chronicles of Cottonwood.

Messrs. Jorgens and Smiley paid Grangeviile
a lying trip Monday.
Dame Rumor has IL that the Cottonwood Re-
port will shortly make change in publica-
ton, either by change in proprietorship or
time of publication.
The new hotel will shortly appear with q
new sign, the "Wayiand Hotel" Mr.. Wayland
has spared neither time nor money to make
his new venture hrstclass in every respect,
and we predict him success.
Although our friend L. I. Tannatt has been
busily engaged for the past week in getting
out logs for winter and summer wood from the
mountain, he thought he would try the mate
rial fhis axe on his leg last Sabbath morning.
Although the old adase, the better the day.
the better the deed, may hold good in some
cases. he thinks il fails in his case.
Monday we had very much like spring rain
which settled the snow considerably.
f.. M. Bridgfarmer is again out and about.
having recovered from his recent sickness.
saturday a meeting of the taxpayers was
called to devise ways and means to settle the
claims against our new school house. But few
were in attendance and nothing was accom-
plshed. II now looks as il the building, that
cost 81 100, Is to be sold to satisfy the claims OF
some $780, due for material furnished. Owing
to the hard times but few feel able to do any
thing for public Improvements when the pocket
book is called upon At the same time 1t will
| be too bad If this new building, so much need
ed in our district. is sold. simply because OF
| delinquent subscribers the lack of a small
amount, especially in as wealthy district as
ours. No better site can be found for a school
house and the building Is amply large to meet
| the demands for some time and the taxpayers
should do all in their power to pay the indebt-
edncss and SECURE the building to the district.
The Tuesday morning stage was several
hours late on account of high water in the
Pearson lane, west Of Grangevile. One of the
horses got down in the stream, the water
| coming into the sleigh and wetting the sacks.
The driver was about one hour getting out OF
the stream and was compelled to work In

Telephone Line Subsid

A man in Washington proposes
to erect a telephone line between
here and Lewiston if we will give
him a $500 subsidy. 1t is easy
enough to erect the line, but the
trouble is to keep it up. We want
a telephone line as bad as the next
man, but as business proposition
we would not undertake to keep
the line in repair for all its gross
receipts. If the gentleman will
publish his rates of toll, and give a
good bond that he will not increase
them, and that he will keep the
line in reasonable repair for steady
use, then we will talk subsidy.
Otherwise, otherwise.
