SOUTH ABERDEEN WATER SUP
PLY.

The water supply for South Aberdeen
is becoming Il serious matter for the mills
and residences on that side of the river
Already, for lack Of a proper water sup
ply, one OF our important industries has
been burned, and the business men COM
PEELED to contribute $1,000 or see it moved
to some other town; while the shinge
mills remaining on that side have been
shut down nall OF the summer, and will
continue so until the rainy season.
These mills will not submit to such
treatment much longer, but will either
ask help to remove to this side of the
river or 20 to some other town where they
will get what they need. 1t would seem
that the council was open to some critl-
cism for the manner in which this matter
has been delayed. Late in the spring,
when bids had finally been asked for and
received. two responsible home bids were
rejected for no apparent reason; both
were within the amount prescribed, the
contract could have been let, and the
work completed before the dry season in
tc,icrred with the operating of the mills
The council could not very well plead
lack Of funds for they have since ordered
the same size main laid an almost equal
distance to tie Western Coopcrage Com
panv's new site.
There is another important reason, OBJ
vious to all, why the south side should
be furnished with water system, and
that is there are but two or three mill
sites lett on the north side OF the river.
New industries will be forced 10 the south
side, but they viii not come at all unless
they can have sufficient water supply ami
fire protection The bids referred to We're
for less than 800; and the water rental
in sight at that time was $40 a month,
$3.50 year, or nearly enough to pay ior
the Improvement in two years. 1t is
short sighted policy to delay this inn
provement any longer. 1t should be
made regardless of the selfish interest OF
any contractor in the letting of the con-
tract, or of any other individual. The
good OF the town should be above that of
any who hope to profit by delaying the
matter.

ton, vet this vast and, comparatively,
populous region is without road to the
county seat to reach Montesano the peo-
pie of that section OF the county must
nav railroad or steamboat fare.
The necessity for more roads than the
county was able to build in its young
DAYS and the fact that Grays Harboi had
the advantage of tidewater rs means OF
communication explains how it comes
that road building in tins direction has
been so long delayed, but we have out
grown that time; the eastern part OF the
county is now provided with fairly good
roads and funds are available to build
road from Aberdeen to connect with the
road leading from Montesano, which is
open to the John Fry place, nearly oppo-
site Cosmopolis, leaving but few miles to
build, and open the road from Grays
IIarbor CITY to North Beach The ex-
pcnse of the latter, we are informed would
be trfline and would render the county
seat accessible to the rapidly increasing
population of the Olympic peninsula.
A road connecting Aberdeen and flo-
uuiam with the eastern end of the county
is not altogether Il local matter, while it
is believed the people OF these two cities
would save the cost of the road III two
wears on the price of fruit, vegetables and
other farm produce, the opening OF the
chief markets OF the county to its farmers
would be of immense importance to the
agricultural section lying to the eastward
and would result in the large sums OF
money now sent to Oregon and California
being distributed among the farmers oil
Chehais county.
A petition asking the county commits
sioners TO build this road will be crcu-
lated during this month throughout the
county and presented to tine board at It's
October session and, with a proper effort,
the Grays lIarbor country will be con-
nccted, by wagon road, with the outside
world before next summer. Build the
road.

1t is the observation ri well known
commission man that Washington fruits,
vegetables and other products have been
upon the local markets earlier than ever
known this year. As q result Oregon
has been almost completely shut out of
their profitable shipping trade to the
Sound, and California has been cut down
to supplying the market only with her
earlier varieties. The usual receiving
season for California products has been
cut almost in two, with profitable results
to the producer, though not entirely SO to
dealers. Probably the early arrival of
State Fisl, Commissioners Little has de.
cided to inaugurate new system for the
conduct OF the hatchery at Chinook next
season by which spring salmon will be
turned out exclusively. The hatchery
will turn out 100000 fry and it is ex-
pected will become an important factor
in checking the decrease of the valuable
spring salmon in the coming legislative
session for handling Columbia. An APP
preparation is to be asked at the coming
legislative session for building and equip

because the Popocratic board of COM

like every other statement emlnatlng

is only too glad to admit that the only
object of fusion is to fill and contro' the
Offices state and county.
About two years ago it occurred to the
voters of Chehals county that the proper
way to obtain an honest, capable admin
istration of county affairs was to elect
honest, capable men to office. And also
that the best way to get rid OF lot OF
parasites, court house hangers on, fellows
who. on their own merits, couldn't get
fine lob of cleaning out an obstructed
sewer, would be to fire both them and
their bosses.
