The Fair Is Good.

Post Master Olson returned from the
Lewis & Clark exposition the first Of
the week after a visit of several days
to the big show. Mr.. Olson said he
was more than pleased with the expo
sition and thinks it well worth going
to see. He visited the St. Louis fair
and says he likes this one much bet
ter. He says the exhibits are
in place and that altogether it is a
most excellent show. According to
his idea of such things one can see a
great deal of the fair in even three
days and in week could take in the
whole thing.

City Council.

The city council held session Sat
urday evening at which all members
were present. The offer OF the Fire
Company to sell to the city the hose
recently purchased was accepted. The
printing bill Of the Troy News for
S9.4O was ordered paid. A motion
was carried instructing the marshal
to notify ]. A. Bjorklund to fill the
lot between the livery barn and the
blacksmith shop.
The marshal was instructed to in
spect all sidewalks at once and to re-
port at once all defective walks and all
walks that needs rebuilding. The
marshal is to report to the village clerk
who is to give property owners ten
days notice to rebuild, repair or con-
struct new walk.
The finance committee submitted
the following estimate as to the prob
able expense Of running the village for
the year ending May 3, '06: Salaries
5000; printing $50; permanent i'm
provements $3.50; general expenses
$500. The funds raised the year just
closed amounted to $1493.11. The
clerk was ordered to properly publish
the estimated expense for the ensuing
year according to law.
Upon motion w. M. Duthie was
granted a permit to construct and
maintain fish pond on his property
on the east side OF Pine street in Of
adjoining block 20.
Ordinance No. 90 relating to the
fire limit was given first and second
readings and then deferred to the mex
session for final action. This ordinance
if it passes the third reading, will per
nit the construction of veneered build
ings in the fire limit.

Be Careful.

With the coming OF the warm
weather and the increased danger from
fire it behooves every citizen of Troy
to use all possible caution. Rubbish
should not be allowed to accumulate,
and where fire is necessary all fues and
pipes should be carefully examined
and securely wired. The promiscious
and reckless shooting Of fire crackers
should be restricted and if possible
stopped. 1t is alright to have a good
time but when it comes TO the ques-
ton of burning up the town it is en-
tirely proper to insist that the small
boy and the big red cracker repair to a
vacant lot where no possible danger
can come from the fragments of burn
ing paper. Now is the time to give
these matters attention. Better little
caution than lot Of regret later.

The Year for Bugs.

Attorney A. H. Oversmith is in re-
ceipt ol small box Of what is known
in Iowa as the Seventeen Year Lo-
Gust" sent him by a friend who
thought he would be interested to see
what the bugs look like. In 1888 the
pest appeared in Iowa and other states
Of that section, doing a great deal Of
damage. Since then none have ap-
peared till this year when they put in
their appearance. Since 1888 the Eng
lish sparrow has also become pest in
that same section and now the sparows
are eating up the locust, preventing
them from doing any damage. The
locust are large dark colored bugs
about the same as the locust seen in
this country.

Will Try for Water.

It has been decided that Troy will
do little experimenting with the end
in view of providing the town with
suitable water works. To this end the
council proposes to put a large
force pump in the Weeks well on the
hill in the north part of town and test
its capacity. It is known that the
well on the Weeks place is most
excellent one and that there is fine
flow of cold water in the we'll but how
strong cannot be determined except
by the use of large force pump. II
this we'll should prove strong enough
to supply the needs Of the town the
village will purchase the same and at
once build a reservoir on the hill just
back of the well, where a tremendous
pressure could be had. From here the
water will be piped to the business sec
ton OF the town and the question o.
water protection settled.
The installation Of good water sys-
TEN would reduce materially insurance
rates in Troy and the saving in insur
ance would probably be enough tc
meet the increased tax. That the
town needs it badly is not questioned
and since good one can be put il
here so cheaply it is about time th'
matter was pushed to a successful con
clusion.

A Pretty Book.

"Restful Recreation Reasorts," the
1905 Summer Book issued by the pas
senger department Of the Oregon Rail
road & Navigation Company, contains
forty-eight pages and cover. The
book is printed on heavy white paper,
ffty-eight cuts being used to illustrate
the trips up and down the Columbia
River, to the mountains, beaches, is
land resorts and fountains of healing.
The cover is done in three colors, ad-
ding materially to the beauty and ef-
fectiveness of the publication, which
may be had by sending two cenls in
stamps to A. L. Craig, General Passen-
ger Agent Of the Oregon Railroad &
Navigation Company, Portland, Ore.
1t is a good thing to send to your
friends in the East who expect to visit
the Lewis & Clark Exposition.

Fine Grain.

What would eastern people think Of
wheat over six feet tall that is now only
in the bloom? Yet that is exactly
what can be seen on at least one farm
in this section of the great county Of
Latah, State of Idaho. On Little Bear
Ridge, five miles east of Troy, David
Brooks has twelve acres Of Canadian
Hybred wheat from which he brought
in bunch last Saturday that measured,
not including the roots, 73 ID inches.
The heads are long and well formed
and have every appearance OF filling
properly. The question of grain Of
such extreme length standing up in
the event of rain or heavy wind is a
matter not entirely assuring but then
the Potlatch country can be depended
upon to do things calculated to aston
ish the natives and it may be we'll to
watch developments before passing
judgment. One thing is certain this
particular wheat field has not yet finish
ed growing and to what height it will
grow is to be determined by time and
weather conditions. Another question
that might be asked at this time is how
will the farmer handle grain that is
seven or eight feet tall? And some
may want to know how tall wheat will
grow in the Potlatch country? Well
at any rate there is no use lying about
it because eastern people won't believe
the nth, not even half Of it. AS a
visitor remarked last week: If 1 tell
my eastern friends what I have seen
in this great section they will conclude
that my trip out west has developed me
into one of the most proficient liars or
earth" And we wonder what thi:
man would think if he should see the
wheat that Mr.. Brooks has on his farmi
So far as we are aware Mr.. Brooks nov
holds the record. If any one can bea
him we would like to see the grain.

Sunday School Picnic.

Wednesday the Sunday School chill
dren Of the Christian and Methodists
churches enjoyed picnic in the grove
at the mouth Of Huff gulch just above
town. Early in the day the little folks,
accompanied by their parents and
friends, marched to the camping
grounds, all laden with baskets of eat
ables. Through the generosity of the
citizens large quantity of good ice
cold lemonade was provided, which
the youngsters enjoyed to their hearts
content. A liberal supply Of ice
cream was also served. Several hours
were pleasantly spent and the day
proved a most enjoyable one. 1t is
the intention to hold several of these
picnics during the summer and an ef-
fort will be made to render a literary
program at the next one. Other fea-
lures will be added so that the very
best kind Of time will be had by the
children. The grounds are pleasant
and well suited for occasions of this
character, but the intention is to fur
ther improve them.

Burnt Boxes and Barrels.

The news of the decision by the fed
eral Court deciding that the Potlatch
Lumber Company must pay taxes on
their timber holdings in this state
caused much rejoicing in Troy. And
when someone proposed a bondfre
Wednesday evening as thing most
be6tting the occasion there was little
trouble in securing the necessary
boxes, barrels, and rubbish for good
one. Two teams were pressed into
services and the material piled up on
Larson's vacant lot across the street
from Jones' livery barn. Just at dusk
the pile was touched off and while the
flames were licking up the tinder the
boom Of the giant fire crackers
brought out quite respectable crowd
to see what all the commotion was
about. While the bond fire didn't Of
itself amount to very much yet it ex-
pressed in a small way the sentiment
Of large majority Of the citizens Of
this community who feel that the ex-
emption Of the big timber people from
any tax whatever was most unjust and
unreasonable.
