the one oftenest overlooked Is catarrh.

same as the loss of blood 1t produces
weakness

THE WATER PLANT IS HERE
Electric Motor and Big Dsans Pump Arrived

tHStdutu tttttEutatGty
The pump and motor for the city water
works arrived from Pittsburg last even
ing. The shipping weight of both is
over 44oo pounds. The switch boards
for the power house have been here two
weeks. having arrived over the o r. *
N. from San Francisco.
The large reservoir will be completed
for the city by Contractors Huber x Fra
zier this afternoon. The base for the
new power plant has been ready for a
week All is now ready for the new
water system. The brick house to be
erected over the plant will be commenced
as soon as the heavy machinery has been
taken from the cars and installed on the
concrete foundation.
The new power house is located at
point just back of the old pump station.
A crib, made of concrete, 80 feet long, 40
feet wide and 10 feet deep has been
erected in the settling hole dug last win
ter. This crib is divided into two sec
tions by an 8 DOT wall. Into the west
section empty -four pipes from the settling
hole and three 10 inch intake pipes from
the river. These pipes are closed by
galvanized screening to prevent the en-
trance of trash. The settings 60 10 the
bottom in the west section and the water
works it's way over the partition and Is
pumped from the east end of the crib.
The crib is open and with the use OF a
centrifugal pump the settling tank can
be slushed out in an hour. The arrange
ments are such that the entire settling
hole can be converted into large tank
and form the lower reservoir in q Rey-
nolds system Of filtration.
From the east end of the settling tank
an S-foot intake pipe will lead to the new
pump. The pump will be located below
the high water mark and q wall of con-
crete will prevent the seepage of water
into the pump room.
w. A. Smith, water superintendent,
states that he is confident that this settl-
ing tank will be success as the intake
pipes furnish three times the water taken
out by the pumps. M
The grounds around the water works
will be set with lawn and flowers as
soon as the work Is finished. 4 Large
shrubbery will not be used as the foliage
would fall in the settling tank and con-
taminate the water. f

Big Drive at POalaich.

The first logs Of the. Small x Emery
drive have reached the month of the Pot
latch creek. Two million feet of white
pine, cedar and fif logs are laying in the
river between The Potlatch creek and
Fir bluff. The river has stopped falling
and logs are not now left lying high on
the banks. The only serious difficulties
connected with the drive has been this
continual fall of the river leaving logs
that have lodged high on the banks.
The wing boom has been thrown across
the riyer from pier above the power
house to the upper end of the island that
protects The company's mill pond. This
will be used to steer the logs to the pond
AS soon as the drive has all arrived the
logs will be rolled up the bank to the
yards to prevent loss from freshets in the
fall. These precautions are taken be
cause it is well known fact that nc
artificial boom has been made that viii

STREET RAILWAY BY APRIL
Franchise Granted Saturday Night to the
Chicago Capitalists Three Miles to Be
Completed Next Year.

The ordinance giving street railroad
franchise to James G. Trainer of Chicago
and Fred T. Dubois of Blackfoot was
passed last Saturday evening by the city
council This ordinance has been before
the committee of the whole. Saturday
night OH motion the ordinance was taken
up and after lengthy discussion was
passed. George Fl. Storer AMI S. l..
Mcfarland represented the petitioner
and I. N. Smith and T.. II. Libby ap-
peared for the Vineland company, A
long and spirited argument was INDUCED
in by the delegates of the different in-
terests involved
E. II. Libby took occasion to address
the council and stated that the opinion
held by a great many that he was op-
posed to the franchise was not correct,
He believed in improvement and heartily
endorsed the Waha irrigation scheme
but he wished to see some changes in
the ordinance as introduced. The
changes suggested were in regard to the
motive power to be used and in the To-
| cation of the track. The ordinance as
originally drafted provided for the use OF
"animal or steam" power and located
the track in the center of the street.
Mr., Libby thought that franchise should
location should be OH the side allowing
other companies to come in if they so de-
sired. The petitioners consented to the
corrections proposed and the ordinance
provides for an electric road to be 10,
Gated on one side of the street. 1t is
obvious that Mr.. Libby and associates
franchise and think of building the
Clarkston line.
A provision was made in the ordinance
| at the suggestion of Mr.. /. N. Smith
making it obligatory on the company 10
begin work on the road by the first oil
April. 1904; further. that three miles oil
road should be built by April /. 1905,
and that all portions of the road not
built by April I. 1906 should be forfeited.
Alderman Colby wished the Waha
company to stipulate the service that
they would provide in stated schedule
but it was not generally thought by the
council that this objection was of suf-
| 6cient importance. Mr. Storer stated
that the street railroad would provide as
good service as the company would find
profitable.
After four hours of consideration the
vote was taken aud it was unanimous
III favCr of granting the franchise.
