T.. A. Mcdonald, of Tacoma state dairy
commissioner, was in town yesterday and
took samples of milk from the dairies for
the purpose of testing. He also inspected
the cheese on sale and found that i'm some
instances the dealers, through ignorance
OF the law, had failed to have it properly
branded. Today he will visit Hoquiam
and Montesano, inspecting the diaries
and creamery.
The city council is in receipt of a com
mnnicatiOn from Simon Mills, resident
OF Dakota, asking for an exclusive teIe-
phone franchise. He wants guarantee
OF Is telephones, and offers to put them
in at monthly charge OF $3.50 for bust
ness houses and $3.50 for residences
Mayor Maley was instructed to CORES
pond with the gentleman. The terms
appear to be reasonable, Lut the council
will doubtless refuse to grant an exclusive
franchise for any purpose, at least for
any great length of time.

the closing of the business houses Of these
Of that race, from sunset Of the day be-
fore until sunset of that day. The world
furnishes no parallel to that OF the He

though its people are scattered to the
four quarters Of the earth Their fast
days and holy days IRE religiously OBJ
served, even though there lie but one or
two in 4 community.

A wagon load of pumpkins and
squashes was novel sight on the streets
OF Aberdeen last Friday. 1t was the first
ever seen in town, because there is not "A
road by which a wagon .oad OF pumpkins
or anything else can be hauled into town.
These came down by steamer from near
Montesano and were consigned to Shelly
" Co., who are selling them out at a
lively rate. There were great big squashes
weighing well up toward 100 pounds, de-
licious pie pumpkins and, par excellence
OF all, fine hubbard squashcs. 1t made
ones mouth water and think OF the old
days on the farm. You better get some
before they are all gone.
County Commissioner 4. II. Kennedy
was in town yesterday returning from
WestpoIt, where he had been nsuectiny
the repairs to the wharf This has been
put in Il substantial condition and is good
for several years more, until the teredoes
destroy the new piIling. Tie Laidlaw
bridge is knotty problem for the com
missioners Mr.. Kennedy says at least
POO piling will be needed, which means
an expenditure running up into the thous.
ands. This is large sum to spend, con.
sidefing the limited travel over 1t and the
fact that it will have to be repeated as
often as the teredoes destroy the piliny.
On the other hand the bridge is liable to
tumble into the bay at any time, and the
interests OF the county require that it's
property be protected.
