CITY MAY BUY
WATER WORKS
Nm. Jack Has Expressed a Willingness
to Sell.
THE CONSIDERATION is NOT STATED.
Outside Parties are Figuring
on Plant

W. M. Jack, owner of the
Grangevllle water works, has writ
ten that he would be willing to sell
the plant, and the advisability OF
the city buying it is being discussed
oy good many of our citizens as
well as some of the city council. In
order for the city to buy the plant
1T wauld be necessary to vote bonds
to almost the limit allowed by law.
yet great many are confident that
lt would prove an economical in
vestment, provided it can be
bought at reasonable price.
Just what Mr.. Jack will want
for the plant is not known, but he
expects to be hero some time next
month when he will no doubt pre-
sent formal proposition if the
city is disposed to consider it.
Parties from the outside have
been here during this month with
a view to negotiating for the plant,
but Mr.. Jack has generously agreed
to give the city the option on the
property provided they want it.
Municipal ownership is rapidly
growing in favor throughout the
country and there is hardly doubt
that the great majority of our citi-
zens would be willing to bond the
city for enough money to pay for a
water system if the price is not too
great. At any rate the proposition
is worthy of careful consideration,
and by the time Mr.. Jack reaches
here the people should be in a posi-
ton to know whether or not they
want the plant and what they can
afford to pay for it.

BIG MONEY
IN FAT HOGS
A Veil Producing Industry Of CamaS
Prairie.
HEAVY SHIPMENTS LAST WEEK.
Farmers are now on the Band
Wagon of Prosperity.

The splendid prices paid for hogs
during the past few years and the
adaptability OF the country for
raising them has led many of the
farmers on Camas Prairie to engage
extensively in hog raising. The
rapid growth of the industry made
1t a prominent factor in the pros
perity of the county, and many of
the farmers today, who few years
ago were running behind raising
wheat for the market, have good
bank accounts just because they
raise hogs.
Mr.. E. s. Sweet, of this place,
has been one of the largest ship
pers this season, and during the
winter he has paid out many thou
sands of dollars to the farmers.
Last week he shipped 1000 head to
Frye, Bruhn & Co., Of Seattle, for
which he received G4 cents a pound
at the railroad. The hogs were of
good size, ranging in weight from
25O to 500 pounds, and brought the
nice little sum of $4,000. Stubber
Bros, of Green Creek, have also
made many shipments during the
winter and spring, and are still
buying. Hog cholera is unknown
in this county, and packers who
put up pork from Camas Prairie
are sure of an absolutely healthy
meat, which has done much to stim-
ulate the demand for hogs from
this section.
However, hogs do not furnish
the only source of wealth in the
stock business as large numbers of
cattle are constantly being shipped
out. Seth Jones is shipping ex-
tensively and during this month
alone has sold in the neighborhood
of $4,000 worth.

A BIG CLEANUP.
The Jumbo and Cracker Jack
Bring Out Over $4,000.

Frank Brown, superintendent of
Jumbo, and Claud Flint, suparin-
tendent of the Cracker Jack, both
came out from the Hump last week
and brought with them over $4,000
In gold bullion as result of last
months work on the two mines.
Of this amount $4,000 was from The
Jumbo, and represented the biggest
cleanup since the mine started
operations.
Mr.. Brown also brought with
him samples of ore taken from the
ol5-foot level. The ore showed
free gold and is as free milling as
the ore on the surface. The fact
that the ore at that depth is free
milling is of great Importance to
the camp, az it has been persist.
emily arguet! by the Knockers "
that as depth was gained the ore
would become too base to he treat
ed with a stamp mill, and conse-
quently the mines would have to
shttt uoWn untll capital could be
induced to bvild smelters.
This is by far the greatest depth
attained in the camp and demon
strates beyond "A doubt that there
will be work for stamp mills for
years to come. AS result Of the
good news there was an active
demand for stock, but as there was
none in the market would-be pur-
chasers could only bewail their bad
luck in not buying when they had
a chance.
The Cracker Jack clean-np was
also the largest yet made on that
mine, and all indications are that
when the same amount Of develop
ment is done it will make show
ing fully as good as the Jumbo.
