Ing regarding the attack made upon him
last night by Roger Sullivan of Illinois.
Mr. Bryan said he was not prepared to
answer Mr.. sullivan's charges and could
not say just when he would issue a state

inference from his replies was that he
would have a formal declaration ready
within a few days.
Bearing upon Roger Sullivan's assertion
that Mr.. Bryan had told an untruth, the
latter was asked this afternoon: rs IL a
fact that you did not write a personal
letter to Sullivan, asking himto resign7"

May Have Smelter.

Roise is in a fair way to secure the
location of a smelter. A prominent
engineer representing eastern capital
lists has been in Boise three weeks,
and has spent considerable time look
ing over different mining sections thar
could be made tributary to this city
He has been making his investigations
quietly, and is now talking for pubi-
cation. From friend of the engineer
the Capital News learns that the in
vestigations made have been more
than satisfactory.
1t may be stated positively that IL
the San Francisco. Idaho G. Montana
railroad becomes certainty through
Boise, a smelter of large size will be
erected here. and that work will be-
gin uron the plant in time to have II
completed as soon sthe road could be
in operation. The smelter would mean
the expenditure of a large sum OF
money here and would make a perma.
nent payroll of nearly 400 men. all re.
ceiving good wages.-Boise Capita

avenge the death of calf that had
been devoured by the bear.
Alexander was hunting berries when
he encountered bruin. He was lead
ing his horse, walking through a berry
thicket, when he almost stumbled
upon the wounded bear. He turned
to run, but stumbled over a fallen
log. Before he could arise, the bear
managed to get to its feet and pounc-
ed upon him. Instead of running
away, as most horses would have
done, Alexander's horse kicked the
bear twice with both feet knocking
it to the ground and then jumped
upon it with its forefeet, stamping 1t
to death. Alexander was unharmed.
An examination of the bear disclosed
that it had been shot twice and was
so weakened by the time ne encoun-
tered it that it reeled over when the
horses hoofs first struck it.-Golden-

Below are given excerpts from the
report made by a special committee
of the La Grande council. which re-
port was unanimously adopted, so that
It may now be taken for granted that
La Grande is to acquire a water sup
ply at least as fine and abundant as
that OF any small city in the state. In
cidentally it should be mentioned that
the government official "a member Of
the reclamation service) who mean
dered and measured Beaver cresk,
states that the water supply is tu-
pie for city of the size of Tacoma !
in fact. equal in volume to that now
received by Tacoma-besides being Of
much better quality.
Pendleton should take a more than
passing interest in the progress of Ia
Grande toward getting an adequate
and pure supply of water From the
special committees report the fol-
lowing is taken:
We examined and measured the flow
of water in Beaver creek, at point
about 10 miles above the mouth of the
stream and found the water perfect
ly clear and as cold as the wat'r of
any of the streams coming from the
higher mountains. The water is
first-class in every respect and is en-
tirely free from any taste of vegeta-
ton or other organic matter. We
measured the water flow at the place
most convenient for obtaining material
for constructing temporary dams in
the stream, and found that there
was 7,S42,4S1.s9 gallons of water
flowing in the stream during "a hours.
This is the actual measurement of the
water as measured on the surface of
the gravel in the creek bed, without
taking any account of water seeping
through the gravel. 1t is our opinion,
that if the water could have been
Oll bthlONhs NhSlS 80
much as two and one-half million
gallons now flowing in the stream
during "a hours. And from observa-
ton and information obtained, the
water is as low in the mountain stream
now as it is at any time during the
dryest seasons.
We run level from the lowest point
on the ridge on the east side of Bea-
yer creek and found that it would re-
quire a pipe line about two and one
half miles in length to get the water
out of Beaver creek canyon. This pipe
line would be nearly in a direct line
from the head of the pipe line to La
Grande.
1t is our opinion that there is suf-
ficient water in Beaver creek at the
point where we made the examination
TO supply all the requirements of the
city of La Grande with pure, cold wa
ter of the very best quality.
hlSlahNt " l>fh vi liOiil Aiie
point of diversion of the water from
Beaver creek in direct line is about
l3h miles. The basin or watershed
of Beaver creek above the point o
diversion is covered with a heavy
growth of timber, principally blacl
pine and Is all vacant government
land excepting one quarter section
and the whole of the watershed Ii
embraced in the Blue mountains for
est reserve. and by proper application

doubt the city could have it set asid
as a permanent awter supply for th
city of La Grande. The stream head
in the high mountains on a northern
slope Of the range, known as the Pc
cahontas or Powder River peaks an
for that reason the water is excep
tionally cold and pure.
