peIIing Property Owners to Pro-
vide Smoke Devices.

Merchants of Walla Walla would be
very grateful if some device could be
secured for doing away with the great
fakes of SCOT which float gracefully
from the many chimneys in the bust
ness district, invading the stores and
causing no little damage to goods and
the tempers of the proprietors.
The nuisance has become so great
that one merchant said day or SO ago
that he would head a petition to the
council to pass an ordinance COM
polling property owners to provide
some means of cleaning chimneys OF
their daily accumulation of SCOT and
ashes, if some one would only start it.
In the cities, devices for caring for
SCOT and smoke, are provided, and a
few around Walla Walla, the mer-
chand said, would not come amiss.

TAKE CENSUS OF the STATE
LEGISLATURE EXPECTED TO
MAKE APPROPRIATION FOR
THAT PURPOSE.
Last Federal Census Taken in 1895
Old Figures Are Entirely
Misleading.

AS provided for in the state con-
stitution a census of the state must be
taken during the present year and the
legislature is expected to make pro-
visions and appropriations for carry
ing out the work. Representative Mol
staa of Skasit county introduced. a
resolution in the house Friday which
urges upon the legislature the ne
cessity Of providing an appropriation
for the purpose OF taking the census
He called attention to the fact that
the last federal census taken in 1895
is entirely misleading as to the relative
importance Of the state and the size
and commercial importance OF towns
and cities in the state. Mr.. Molstad
facetiously remarked in presenting his
resolutions that the state has ad-
vanced with greater rapidity than the
Russians have retreated.
