COUNTY TELEPHONE SERVICE.

The Cumberland Telephone & Tele-
graph Co. wishes to operate in connec-
ton with its exchanges in the country
a county system and to this end request
the farmers of the country to give it an
opportunity of presenting to them its
plans for the service. By the use of
the greatest of modern inventions, the
farmer can at a minimum cost to him
self keep in touch with the markets and
on the days that the highest prices are
offered for the products of his farm he
can be reached over the telephone by
his merchants or by his confidential adj
visor and thus frequently in n trans
action save more than the cost of his
telephone service for an entire year.
The farmers in this section are invited
to confer with the Company's nearets

A New York man was stopping for
a month at an inland town in Florida.
This man is exceedingly fond Of swim

this fear kept him from indulging in
his favorite sport in the nearby river.

his desire and the barrier to its en-
joyment to his guide, a lanky and sor.

Board Of Trade Member Uncovers
Secret Ooings
MEMBERS ALWAYS FIXED THE PRICE
ATTORNEYS ADVISED BOARDS
THEY WERE VIOLATING LAW
BUT PRACTICE CONTINUED.

CHICAGO, H., Oct. 16.-Richard
Gamberill, a member of the board OF
trade, today testified before the inter-
state commerce commission that the
board of trade adopted rule, in the
face of the advice Of it's attorney
that it was unlawful, for fixing prices
on grain bought from farmers.
Gamberill said members Of the Min
neapolis and Chicago boards meet
every day before closing to fix the
highest price to be paid before open
ing. No buyers would pay the hold
ers more.
The boards attorney told the board,
according to Gambrill, it violated the
law forbidding the restraint Of trade.
The witness said this rule was
running Chicago as grain market.
B. L. Mitchell, president Of the
Rock Island, in describing the grain
purchasing contracts to Commissioner
Lane told him they alleged they al
ways consulted attorneys.

Contract May Be Let By
Council Tonight.
may COST FIFTY THOUSAND
Increase in the Price of Material
Results in Addition to
Estimates.

Bids for the erection of the yro-
posed city hall on the site Of the old
fire station at the corner of Third
and Rose streets will be opened at
tonight's meeting Of the council and,
II the bids are anyway near what the
council thinks they should be, the
contract may be awarded in order to
get work started on the new structure
as soon as possible.
A number of Walla Walla contrac-
tors have signified their intention to
put in bid for the contract and it
was rumored today that several out
of town contractors will also have in
bids.
Advance in Material.
When the plans were originally
drawn it was estimated the building
would cost around $4,000, but with
big advance in the price of material
and labor it is estimated the building
will entail an expenditure of approx
imately $4,000.
The council will Also open bids to-
night for the construction Of a bulk
head along the south side of Mill creek
from Park street to the easterly line
of the city's property on which the
sub fire station stands. The work of
bulkheading the creek channel will
be fastened in order to protect the
new station from the danger Of floods.
Paving Matter Up.
Property owners in district No. "a,
will be given an opportunity tonight
to enter any protests against paying
that district as proposed by the coun-
Gil. The 10 days time given property
owners to file protests is up tonight.
In view of the fact that property
owners have been trying for nearly a
year to get that district paved men,
bers of the council said today that .t
is hardly probable any protests will
be filed.

TRICKY ACTION Of CITY COUNCIL
IN PIPELINE SCANDAL DISCUSSED
Business Men and Taxpayers are Asonished at Brazen Erotey
Of Those Concerned in Allowing Bills PLAINLY Matter of
Graft--Mayor KeIough's Great Interest

I terms, but repeated it half a dozen
times while the question of accepting
the time books as payrol1s was under
discussion.
The amazing feature Of yesterdays
investigation was the fact that Mr..
Lynch, who acted as cashier, time
keeper and general factotum, could
not tell who employed him when the
question was put to him by Council
man Bridges. Mr.. Lynch, after some
hesitation, said the Warren company
had told him to go to work. Coun-
Gilman Mexican and Kirkman came
to Mr.. Lynch's rescue by remember
ing, at some former council meeting,
the question of timekeeper and in
spector had come up and Mr.. Lynch's
name had been mentioned in connec-
tion with the job.
That Salary Graft.
The subject Of the Warren Con-
| etruction company forcing the city
to pay the salaries Of superintendent
along the line was not settled to the
satisfaction of Councilmen Glasford
and Bridges.
Glasford openly asserted that the
/, Warren company had designated the
superintendent as foremen in order
to compel the city to pay them while
the contract clearly stated that all
superintendent were to be paid by
the Warren company.
Councilman Glasford pointed out, as
an instance, that the foremen of the
rock work was in reality a superin-
tendent and should have been paid
by the Warren company.
Glasford also asserted that there
