A. F. Tabor, who was reported by
the police Friday as missing with sew

money, has been heard from. Tabor
is in Seattle. His wife received a let

which he stated that he got on a

condition, and could not bear to face

Mrs. Tabor at first was very much
alarmed for the safety of her hus-
band. She had fears that he might
have committed suicide or have been
murdered. Another theory was that
he had run away Intentionally and
would not return to her. Now, that
Mrs. Tabor has heard directly from

DID ANKENY DO IT?
Washington Senator Accused of De-
feating Palouse Irrigation Project.

That the private interests of Sena-
tor Ankeny are responsible for the
abandonment of the Palouse govern
ment irrigation project is intimated
by people of eastern Washington.
The Walla Walla Bulletin in speaking
of this matter says:
The announcement that the govern
ment has determined to permanently
abandon the Palouse irrigation pro-
ject comes in the nature of a great
surprise as we'll as a deplorable dis
appointment to the people of this sec
ton of country. 1t was felt that with
Senator Ankeney as chairman of the
committee on irrigation and his pre-
sumed personal interest in the sue
cess of the project, that there would
be no question as to its ultimate sue
cess.
The report that the examining en-
gineers have decided that the expense
of putting through the Palouse pro-
Ject is prohibitive is accepted with
some reluctance, and it is intimated
that private interests in which Sena-
tor Ankeny is believed to be interested
may have had something to do with
the governments action in turning
down the scheme.
This view was first made public
| through Seattle paper and when II
was called to account by the people
of Pasco it produced correspondence
with heads of departments at Wash
ington, d. c., to bear out its conten-

Eastern Cities Recommend Practical
Street Paving.

Henry H. Schott returned yester-
day afternoon from a trip back east
to his old home near st. Paul. says
the Yakima Republic. He also visited
eight or 10 towns in Wisconsin where
he succeeded in closing several con-
tracts for delivery of this years crop
of hops.
While away on this trip Mr.. Schott
was particular to take observations
on paving in the various cities and to
talk with the city engineers of a
number of the cities the size of North
Yakima, in order to ascertain an idea
of what might be good for this city.
81 found that most of the cities
back east are using vitrified brick aI-
most exclusively" said Mr.. Schott,
''and they say it gives the best of sat
isfaction, is not as expensive as as
phalt and much more durable. At
Chippewa Falls, Wis, their stree ts
were paved with vitrified brick 10
years ago, and since that time they
have not been compelled to expend
dollar upon the streets in repairs,
except to clean them off. People
back there are enthusiastic about this
kind of paving, and / am of the opin-
ion that 1t is the thing for our city to
have"

HOMESTEADS IN
FOREST RESERVES
CARTER, OF MONTANA,
INTRODUCES NEW BILL
Agricultural Lands In Reserves May
Be Entered by Actual Setlers-COm-
mutation Principle Does Not Apply
Under This Proposed Law-Agita-
tion is Now Before Congress.

Agitation to provide for the entry
of agricultural lands within forest re-
serves continues in congress, though
there are several measures providing
for said entries now pending in con-
gress.
Senator Carter of Montana has add
ed another to the already long string
and incidentally claimed for 1t merit
which none of the other bills boasted
In short, Senator Carter would have
no red tape in the opening to settle
ment of agricultural lands within the
forest reservations, with no stringent
provisions.
The only condition imposed by the
Carter bill is that the land be taken
by actual settlers in the homestead
reservations only, and not exceeding
100 in area and not exceeding u
miles in length. Another provision IN
this bill denies the commutation pro-
visions to the homestead la VITO entry
men under his act. The bill is in part
as follows:
THAT the secretary having super
vision of forest resolves may, upon
application, or on his own motion as
certain, list and describe, by legal
b-division where surveyed, and by
metes and bounds where unsurveyed
slch lands within forest reserves as
appear to his satisfaction to be chiefly
valuable for agriculture; and the land
so listed shall upon the filing of such
list or lists In the land office of the
land district in which they are stu
ated be open to settlement and entry
by actual settlers under the home
stead laws only, In tracts not exceed
ing one and a half miles in length
Provided:
THAT any duly qualified homestead
settler actually occupying and in good
faith claiming land for homestead
purposes at the date of the approval
of this act within any permanent or
temporary reservation and the per-
son, IL qualified to make n homestead
entry, upon whose application the
land proposed to be entered was ex-
amined and listed, shall each, in the
order named, have a preference right
of entry for 80 days after the list en-
bracing the claim occupied by the set
tier or previously designated by the
applicant Is filed in the local land Of

This is more than twice as much as

land thus signed. The state and rail-

KRAG-JORGFNsENs DISCARDED
New Springfield Rifles to Be Issued
to U. S. Army.

10 y. >. ARMY.
Immediate issue to the cavalry, in
fantry and engineers in the United
States army of the new Springfield
rifle, 1903 model, with the rod, bayo-
net and 1903 sight, has been author.
lied by the secretary of war so that
these pieces may be used for target
practice this season.
They will be replaced with the
latest model. with the improved sight
and bayonet at a later date. On ac-
count of the early date fixed for the
beginning of target practice, ship
ments will be made as soon as prac-
ticable to the department of the CO.
lumbia, from which point the new
rifles will be distributed to the various
posts on the Pacific coast and in
Alaska.
The order issued by the war de-
partment practically means that all
Krag-Jorgensen rifles will be discard
ed and the new rifles used in their
place.
The reason given for the abolition
of the Krag-Jorgensen rifle, by local
army officers including Major Wood,
head of the quartermaster depart
ment in this city, says Seattle dis
patch, is that the new Springfield has
a greater muzzle velocity and is capa-
BILE of throwing a bullet on a straight
trajectory, which is not the case with
the Krag-Jorgensen weapon. The
shipments are expected to arrive with
in a week or more.

One would think the Laxative idea
in a cough syrup should have been
advanced long before 1t was. It seems
the only rational remedy for Coughs
and Colds would be to move the bow

time. Kennedy's Laxative Honey and

Often the water does not drain off
enough to enable any hay to be Sc
cured. Then again, it is of very poor
quality, hardly fit for stock cattle,
and is said to give horses blind stag
gers. The marsh land is undoubtedly
extremely fertile, the sediment hav-
ing formed for years, and instead of
this grass four to five loads to the
acre of cloyer or timothy hay could
be raised. Then, again. the school
land which lies in the bog is at pres
ent worthless but if drained would be
worth perhaps SIS or more an acre.
