Christian Cooperative Telephone Co.
Has rleeting at Sunny side and
Plans for Extensions.

A special meeting of the Christian
Cooperative Telephone association was
held in Sunnyside Thursday, Jan. 81, for
the purpose of providing ways and
means of reducing the indebtedness of
the association, regulating the price of
stock and considering the advisability
of extending their lines. The meeting was
well attended, many more than the nee
essary majority to transact business be-
ing present. The affairs of the associa-
ton were thoroughly gone into and
much misunderstanding done away with,
resulting in perfect harmony and be.
lief that the association lines should be
extended to North Yakima.
President S. J. Harrison was in the
chair and II. II. Wende was appointed
secretary of the meeting.
After extended remarks by President
Harrison on the growth and matters OF
general interest pertaining to the tel
ephone plant, and also remarks by II.
NJ. Gilbert, of Toppenish, and by Col. A.
G. Walker of Zillah, President Harrison
appointed Col. Walker, II. NJ. Gilbert and
w. p. Sawyer committee to formu-
late a scheme for raising the associa.
TONS indebtedness, which report, after
amendment was adopted. The amend.
ment was as follows::
"Frst-A special assessment April
LIST, 1904 of $500 per share, to apply on
indebtedness of the association.
"Second-That on each succeeding
quarter after April LIST, 1904, special
assessment of maintenance of $l.00 per
share in addition to the regular assess
ment be levied to make u sinking fund
to pay off the balance of the associa-
TONS indebtedness"
Messrs. j. ID. Nichols. G. p. Eaton and
VIM. Lemay were appointed a committee
to audit the association books. After a
general discussion on the ACCESSIBILITY of
maintaining the present price of stock,
a motion was carried making the price
on the next hundred shares sold SIS per
share.
Extending the line to North Yakima
seemed to be favored by all present, and
the following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That it ia the sense of this
meeting to extend this telephone system
to North Yakima and that the chair APP

The Carpenters union has surren--
dered Its charter. When the union.
was organized, year ago, at the
time Of the State Federation meeting,
some of the prominent union mem
from outside towns thought the propo--
sition was pr emature and were afraid
the organization would not hold to-
gether.
Several members have left the city,,
and others have quit paying dues. It
was decided to give up the charter
rather than that a few should bear
the burden. It is. unfortunate that:
the union has dissolved, but 1t is;
likely that later on, under more favor
able circumstances, union will
again be organized.

FOR SMOOTHING OF ROADS.

While the discussion of methods
employed in smoothing down the
rough surface of the country roads ia
going on it may not be out of order to
mention an apparatus which Ed.
Brakeman has rugged up for the De-
corah Public Opinion. It is very
simple and Is said to be most effec-
tive. It consists of q heavy plank
3x12x8, to which is attached at an
angle of about forty.five degrees a
long tongue. The plank is faced on
one edge with steel plate, and when
the drag is drawn along one side of
the road 1t smooths down the rough
places, fills up the low places and
turns the surplus dirt into the middle
of the road, when the operation lie
repeated from the other side, which
leaves the road smooth and high in
the center. A team can easily pull the
drag and it is said to do the work

DIFFICULT TO FIND WORK FOR
PAROLED PRISONERS.

PAROLED PRISONERS.
Jobs are begging in st. Paul, &C.
cording to Prison Agent J. 2. Barn
chard of tie state board of control,
whose duty it is to secure employment
for the prisoners that are paroled o,
discharged from the st. Cloud refor'
matory and the Saltwater peniten'
tiary, says the Pioneer Press. Mr..
Blanchard says that during the winter
and up to the present he has had great
difficulty in finding openings for the
prioners.
The state board Of control paroles
and discharges from thirty to fifty
prisoners every month, for whom en-
ployment must be found. A majority
of the prisoners are laborers, many
are farmers and others are carpenters,
printers, mechanics, s.clerks. team
sters, hod carriers, fathers and men Of
other occupations.
Work was unusually scarce las,
WINTER said Mr.. Blanchard, land
for time we were unable to gel
positions for all the prisoners. Many
of the factories, jobbing houses and
wholesale 81 81 concerns reduced their
working forces, and men Of expert
ence we're dismissed. Under these
circumstances it was very difficult tc
secure openings for paroled and dis
charged prisoners.
"Then the board will not let prison
ers work at any jobs they can secure.
We try first of all to get work thai
will keep the prisoners busy and out
of wrongdoing. Not long ago re-
fused to let a paroled prisoner work
at a job which would take only few
minutes of his time each day. The
mother of the boy thought was very
cruel; she thought that the work waf
just right for her boy; 1t was a sort
of snap. But knew that to give
boy that work would be temptation
for him to go back into his old ways.
''We are not placing so many pris'
onars on the farm as we used to.
Many prisoners do not like farming,
and Of course there is no use in max
ing them do something they DOM
like. One of our principal aim is tc
secure congenial employment for thu
prisoners, for if they do not like the
work they are more likely to pursue
their former evil practices.
