The judiciary committee at the Guy
council meeting last night repoi 'e'
that it was not ready to make report
On tho matter of the protest hled
,o.ins, tho second assessment of prop
erty in the paving district. furthei
time was granted and October IL was
set as the date for the hearing OF the
report. While the committee ala not
intimate what it's report would De- l.
is limited that the committee will back
up the special appraisers that perform
ed the work.
First Street Again.
The matter of opening First street IS
a little nearer contamination than II
has been in the past IA years, that be-
ing the first time the agitation for the
opening Of the street was commenced.
At the meeting last night the council
voted to donate $500 towards the eX-
pense of the improvement and an Or
dinance creating an assessment district
was passed. If no one brings lnJunc-
ton proceedings in the court it is pos
sible that the street will be opened be
fore the first of next year.
Paouse Street.
Another kick on the work being done
on Palouse street was sprung last
night when Harry H. Turner announc-
ed that the ground in the parkingS I'M
der which several bitches were running
had given away in many places and he
asked that an investigation be made.
The council showed d disposition to
rush the Improvement and the street
committee will employ competent
expert to examine the curbing, which
has also been reported to be defective.
BuIkheading Ordinance.
An ordinance creating an assessment
district for the bulkheading of Mill
creek on both sides from Main street
to Palouse street was passed by a
unanimous vote.

THE BEST DOCTOR,

Rev. B. c. Horton, Sulphur Springs,
Texas, writes, July 10Th, 1899: Il have
used in my family Billiards. Snow Lini-
ment and Horehound Syrup, and they
have proved certainly satisfactory. The
linlment is the best we have ever used
for headache and pains. The cough
syrup has been our doctor for the last
eight years" 25c, soc, s1.OO.

auditor shows that the commissioners
still have on hand several hundred dol
lars worth of high priced hay for sale.
1t seems there is an implied under
standing, if not an explicit order. that
all teamsters employed on the county
reads shall buy hay for their horses
from the county commissioners and it
is likely that under this rule the guam
tity of hay still on hand can be easily
the new road law authorizing the COM
missioners to buy hay. provisions. sup
utensils, dishes. groceries, etc. and it
is a safe bet that there is not another
county in the state where the commits
sioners have done anything of the sort.
The commissioners give as an ex-
cure for not advertising for bids on
road work when the probable cost of
the work under contemplation exceeds
one hundred and fifty dollars, that the
cost of such advertising would be very
heavy. If the board had not let the
county advertising to the highest bid
der, at a price six or seven times the
price named in the lowest bid, it would
cost very little to advertise for bids
as the law requires. Under the law the
county surveyor is given general SUI
pervision of all the road work in the
county, but his rights and powers in
this respect have been usurped by the
commissioners, who pay themselves 81
a day and 81 each besides for use of
horse and buggy While they take little
drives into the country and take birds
eye views of the summer following
being done on the county roads.
The Union says that no single piece
of work done in the county has cost
in excess of $50. Every one who has
paid any attention to the road work
done in the county knows better. but in
order to eVade the plain provisions of
the law the board makes a pretense of
letting the contract for only few rods
work covers a distance of ten miles.
This is another proof of the cunning
OF the commissioners. Yet the Union
assures the taxpayers that no under
hand methods have been resOrted to-
The Union admits that the commits
sioners have violated the law IN not
advertising for bids on road machn-
cry. etc. Probably the high price of
advertising under their illegal contract
is the main excuse. 1t is stated that in
every instance the commissioners have
called upon local dealers and asked for
their prices before purchasing. Ac-
cOrding to common report the commits
sioners in asking prices have followed
the same rule adopted in the purchase
of hay and in letting the contract for
printing and advertising-th highest
bidders have been given the preference
for reasons which the public is free to
surmise.
The truth is that the record of the
present board of commissioners is in
most respects indefensible, and the less
said in its defense the smaller Will be

be retired 10 the solitude of private

THEY PRAISE TURNER.

The Spokesman Review says:

said in a speech at Tenino Tuesday
night:

Turner. l heard the chief lobbyist of
the Northern Pacific in Olympia that

said the railroads never would forgive
Turner for the fight which he made
