Our farmers have been quite
busy preparing their lands for
planting a good large crop for the
present year; oat sowing and early
potato planting are finished. Some
have planted early garden and
few have hedded sweet potatoes. We
are needing rain, as we have not
had any since the goth of January.
Last week was devoted partially
to planting fruit and shade trees
and berry vines. There has been
quite an improvement made IN
that direction in this part of the
country this year. There are some
orchards in bloom, that were plant

is alright for fruit.

Political Talk.
Murphy Not Friendly to Parker
Will Fight For Vninstructed
Delegation.

Washington, March I5.-New
York congressman just from At
lantic City say that Charles F.
Murphy is there. They say there
is no truth in the reports that he
has abandoned his fight for an I'M
instructed delegation 10 the St.
Louis convention, and is unwilling
10 let Parker instructions go
through the state convention; that
Fit is his intention to fight instruc-
tions to the end, even if he is sat-
isfed before the convention that
he will be beaten. This purpose,
they say, is to show the democrats
Of other states that Parker is not
the choice of the democrats of
New York City, who will poll
most of the democratic vote Of the
state, but that he is the candidate
Of machine, who may be strong
in convictions, but which is never
in working order on election days.
II is said that Hill, who recog-
nizes the strength Of Murphy's 5 po-
sition, had made or would make
overtures to him to effect COM
promise, by which Murphy would
have his way about anuninstructed
delegation, while Hill would have
his way about an Endorsement of
Parker by the state convention.
According TO this program, the
convention would adopt resolu
tions declaring that Judge Parker
is the choice of the democrats Of
New York state, bat would leave
the delegates free to vote as they
pleased. No confirmation Of the
rumor could be obtained, but
many politicians believe it, because
it is exactly in line with Hills
usual policy in a fight.
AS is well known, he is a master
at planning, but when it comes to
fight he is always for some sort
Of compromise, even if all the
chances are in favor Of his winning
the fight. He could have forced
through the state committee an
Endorsement of Parker at the AL
bany meeting recently, but he did
nothing further than to put
through resolution naming AL
bany as the place of the conven-
ton.
All The indications now are that
he will have majority in the
state convention aud can have tht
delegates instructed for Parker

say that it is not at all unlikel,

The Lewiston ball team are out to-
day practicing for the game tomorrow
with the Lapwai Redmen. Reillys
Indians are giving them just the kind
Of practice that they need. While the
boys are a little new they have the
advantage of an early start in practic-
ing and tomorrows game will be an
interestisg one. There was another big
crowd at the ball park today to wit .
ness the Spokane team and the Lew
iston team work out and Reilly Of the
Indians has much to say in praise
of the Lewiston aggregation.
The string has been made up for to-
morrow's game which is as follows:
Dummy" catcher: Hester or Ham
bin. pitcher; Williams, first base: T..
Bradbury, second base; Wells, short
stop: Chapman. third base; Sprague.
left field; Ferris or Edwards, right
field Brooks, center field. Nothing
has been heard as yet as to the posi-
ton Of the Redmen team but 1t is ex-
pected 1t will be announced later.

morrow Reilly giving permission to
the local team to use him.

II he can manage to chop off little
weight he will be in good form. Wells
who will hold short is speedy and the
prospects are that he will be given a
life job. He has been there before and
knows how. There is good deal to
be said Of all the rest Of the Lewiston
team but the game tomorrow and sun

We believe the above to be a fair
basis for settlement with the contrac-
tors.
We believe that our examination of
the system has been thorough and
complete. The contractors showed
every inclination to assist in uncov-
ering defects, if any. and our report to
you is that the system should be ac-
cepted as completed according to the
contract, being fully up to the standard
OF the average work OF this kind
throughout the west. There is moth
ing to be gained by delaying the ac-
eeptanee of the system.
The minor defects already mentioned
will not prevent the sewers from rem
dering the service for which they were
intended.
In adjusting the final estimate to its
present size we considered the records.
