Just What's Needed

Exclaims thousands of people who
have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at
this season of the year, and who have
noted the success of the medicine in
giving them relief from that tired
feeling, waning appetite and state of
extreme exhaustion after the close
confinement of long winter season,
the busy time attendant upon a large
and pressing business during the
spring months and with vacation
time yet some weeks distant. Is is
then that the building-up powers OF
Hoods Sarsaparilla are fully appreci.
ated. 1t seems perfectly adapted to
overcome that prostration caused. by
change of season, climate or life, and
while it tones and sustains the sys-
tenn, it purifies and vitalizes the
blood.

Over 1000 different persons are
shown in the illustrations. 1t will be
seen from the few facts which we
have given, that the work is most
complete one, fully covering the
movements of the Welsh people from
the early day when the few hardy
pioneers moved slowly and laboriously
across the prairies unmarked by
roads, over streams devoid of bridges,
and through almost impossible
sloughs, behind slow moving OK teams,
to encounter all the deprivations of a
pioneer life, and the dangers and hor-
rors of Indian warfare, up to the
present day where it finds them
prosperous people enjoying the well
earned fruits of their labOrS with
every comfort our modern civilization
affords. To faithfully record all this
has been laborious task involving
patience, time and trouble, and as
we have said the editors of the work,
and especially Mr.. Thos. Hughes, are
entitled to much credit therefor.
To the future historian, who seeks
to write the history of the northwest
and it's people, the volume will prove
rare treasure house, for here he will
find facts and data which would soon
be lost had it not been collected in this
work, for the reason that those who
are cOgnizant of the real facts of
those early times are fast being
gathered to their fathers.
Taken altogether it is a work of
which the Welsh people may we'll
feel proud. 1t is noble record of
sturdy, patriotic, enterprising people,
who have made an impression upon
the northwest civilization, and who
number among their nationality
many of the most prominent citizens
of our state, in all the various walks
of life.

ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT.
What the City Council Proposes
to Do.

Now that the electric llgnt oonus
have been voted, the members OF the
council are talking over among them
selves what plan would be the BEST TO
pursue. That city plant shall be
nut in all are decided upon, and the
onlyuuestion is how to proceed. From
expressions and opinions that nave
been dropped, we are inclined to think
that competent electrician, perhaps
Prof. Shepardson, of the State Uni
yersity, will be employed at once to
prepare specifications upon which TO
ask for bids for plant. Prof. Shep-
ardson was the gentleman, it Will be
remembered, who made test OF the
electric lights for Mayor Weaver a
wear or two ago, when the question OF
brilliancy of the lights furnished by
the present company was under con-
sideratiOn.
The aldermen are unit In the be-
lief that they should act promptly, IN
order to have a plant installed by DC
tober, when the present lighting con-
tract expires. If the city plant shall
not be entirely completed by that
time, it is proposed to allow the pres
ent company,to continue the lighting
until such time as the city lights are
ready to be turned on, or to allow the
city to 60 in darkness for few weeks.
Probably at the same time that bids
on city plant are advertised for, bids
on the $4,000 of bonds will also be
solicited, so that no time may be
lost.
Aid. Peterson has already written
to prominent electrical concern for
information, and Aid. Zimmerman
has quantity of correspondence on
hand already which will be of service
to him.
Some of the aldermen favor adding
as much to the $4,000 of bonds as
may be necessary to put in a good
plant, even up to $4,000 additional,
but where this money is to come from
is not stated, when the city does not
have enough money to put in much
needed drinking fountains in the
crowded parts of the city at cost OF
only $50.
One gentleman of the city, who was
prominently opposed to the voting OF
the lighting bonds, states that the
first dollar that the council uses over
the proceeds from the sale of the
bonds will be the signal for injunction
proceedings which he will institute
on the ground that the council has nc
right to use any other money for the
purpose. This statement was made
yesterday and in very decided man
ner, and unless he relents, or plant
is secured for $4,000, there is apt tt
be music before the year is over. But
whether this extreme is resorted to OF
not by the opponents of the city
plant, the councils actions will be
closely scrutinized by all, the friends
of a city plant as well as the oppo
nents. The council will undoubtedly
move cautiously and do what seems tt
be wisest under all the circumstance.
