Should Be stopped-The practice of
teamsters of driving over the cement
walks should be stopped instantly If
the walks are to- be preserved The
habit is becoming so general that a
great deal of loss will soon be entailedl
upon property- owners if an end is not
put to the practice at once. A few
arrests and fines would do the bust
ness, as some people cannot be other
wise restrained.

SinguIa-It is singular the opposi-
ton that any proposition to improve
the appearance of the city engenders,
and from people that one would
naturally expect other action from.
There are some in the city who seem
to feel they are personally affronted
by the agitation against cattle and
horses running at will, one man actu'
ally saying "the people who own COWS
ought to move out of such a blankety
blank town" He little realized what
he was saying and in time will come
to the conclusion that he has been a
little hasty in his Judgment of the
situation. 1t is also singular that
some men should advance the theory
that because the property abutting a
progressive mans place was a dis
grace that the progressive man should
allow his place to drop to the level oi
the other instead of trying to set an
example of cleanliness and beauty to
the slovenly cuss. Also, that no one
who owns a modest home should try
to ''ape" the ways of his more fortu
nate neighbor by making his place as
neat and attractive as his modest
means and own labor will permit

1t is announced that the govern
ment will look more carefully to the
enforcement of it's rule regarding the
roads over which rural free delivery
is established. The present require
ment is: Roads traversed shall be
kept in good condition, and unob ;
structed by gates; there must be no
unbridged creeks or streams not ford
able ut any season oil the year. In
many cases the residents along pro-
posed routes have made improvements
that enable them to obtain rural free
delivery service, but sometimes the
efforts to keep up the roads are re-
laxed. But the government has de-
cided that unless the roads travelled by
the carriers are properly maintained
the service will be withdrawn. The
postoffice department now calls on
carriers for reports on the roads and
will stop the service where the high
ways in question are bad. Wherever
route is discontinued the inhabitants
themselves will be to blame for it.
The idea that route once authorized
is necessarily permanent is mistake.
The 35, ,973 rural delivery carriers now
employed cover 1863, 1863 miles daily,
and it is unreasonable to expect them
to contend with neglected roads.
"A. D. Charlton, western general
passenger agent of the Northern Pa
cific, was in the city Wednesday en-
route to Lewiston on a tour of inspec-
tion of the Palouse branch. While
here Mr.. Charlton spoke of the great
advance that had been made in rail-
roading in the Palouse country during
the past few years, but stated that
every improvement his company had
made in its equipment had been fully
justified by the very liberal patronage
and appreciation of the public. He
said that the grill car which was first
placed in commission last week. would
soon be replaced with a first class
diner. The greatest innovation for
the coming season, however, will be
the laying of heavier rails between
Spokane and Moscow, and the cutting
down of some of the grades, and re-
ducing the curves in number of in
stances. The heavier rails and i'm
proved road bed will enable the trains
to make better time, besides being
much more pleasant to ride over. Mr..
Charlton was accompanied by Travel
ing Passenger Agent Ude.
Hon. Peter McGregor, republican
nominee for state senator from this
district, is moving his family to Col
fax from Hooper, and will hereafter

Tragedy Occurred in Kitchen
of Alton Hotel Last Tues
day Afternoon

Edward H. Fenton, a resident of
the Orofino country, who had been
working in and around Pullman for a
number of months, shot and killed his
wife, Bessie M. Fenton, and then
committed suicide, last Tuesday after
noon, the deed occurring in the kitchen
of the Alton hotel in this city.
Domestic trouble had marred the
family life of the Fentons for some
time past, the drink habit of the hus-
band having been responsible for the
most of the differences. The family
came to this city last spring, when
Fenton was employed for several
weeks on the street work, later going
in the harvest field, and recently
being with the McClure's threshing
outfit Two weeks ago Mrs. Fenton
returned to Orofno, taking the three
younger children with her, a fourth
child, boy of fourteen, working with
his father in the country. The differ
ences in the Fenton family, however,
had come to point where the hus-
band and wife had agreed on a divis-
ion of the personal property, the four
horses, harness and wagon which
Fenton was working being given to
Mrs. Fenton. Monday the lady, in
company with Marshal Noble, of Oro-
fno, came to Pullman to get the team
and wagon. which they proposed te
drive through to Orofino, Mrs. Fentor
having on Saturday filed a suit for
divorce in the courts of Nez Perce
county.
While in this city Mrs. Fenton was
stopping at the Alton hotel, anc
Fcnton went there Tuesday morning tc
attempt a reconciliation that woulC
leave him in possession of the team.
Failing in this he returned to the
country, and Noble was getting the
horses together to bring in with him.
few minute before he was ready tt
start, however, Fenton mounted a sad.
die pony and came toward Pullman.
On his arrival in town, Fenton went
to hardware store where he pur-
chased a 22-cal. revolver and box Of
cartridges and then went to the Altor
hotel, where he found his wife in the
Kitchen assisting in canning pears
Fenton first tried to persuade his wife
to come outside where he could talk II
her' but on her refusal Fenton en-
tered the kitchen, and walking up to
Mrs. Fenton, placed one hand on hel
shoulder and said Mamma, l wan
just one more woed with you. The
Wife replied 'It's no use, Ed., it viii
De the same old thing over again.
Mrs. Larrick, proprietress of the hotel
VINO was in the kitchen, saw th'
revolver in Fenton's hand, and called
OUT to Mrs. Fenton to run, tha
Fenton was going to kill her. Fentor
at once commenced shooting, the frs
bullet apparently going through th'
glass door, the wife making des
perate struggle to turn the gun away.
mrs. Larrick ran outside for assist
slee' but when men arrived on the
scene tenton and his wife were boil

tractor for Delayed Work
Not to be Enforced

Councilmen Baker, Henry. Carpenter
and White were in attendance at the
regular meeting of the city council
Thursday night. Mayor Staley was
also on hand for the first time since
his recent illness.
The reports of the various city
officers were read. The special COM
mittee on street macadamizing reported
progress of the work, and stated that
in all probability the work would be
completed by September 18th. Unde r
the terms of the contract the contrac-
tor is liable to a forfeiture of $50 for
each day the work is unfinished after
August 31st. but the commi ttee re-
ported that the penalty would not be
exacted if the work was pushed ahead
as rapidly as possible from now on.

struction of cement sidewalks on Main
street was read and passed. Under the
ordinance all walks along this street
that need replacing or repairing must
be rebuilt of cement to conform to
certain specifications, thus giving
Main street walk of uniform grade
and width.
The request that road be opened
to connect Grand and State streets at
the south ends was referred to the
street committee with power to act.
A petition presented by w. E.
Jaberg and others asking for a sewer
was granted, and the attorney will
take the action necessary to create a
sewer district covering South State
and adjacent streets.

 Three cars came from Williams" 1" said Mr. Vandewart this morning, land the remaining forty were loaded at Holbrook The shipment about cleans up the Holbrook market. and was the whole of the wool brought to the mar ket with the exception of few con sigaments to eastern commission houses shipped only on guarantees. The most of it is heavy stuff, fat and greasy, and was bought for prices ranging between 12 1-2 and IS cents per pound. The lighter and finer wools are bringing prices from 1 10 2 cents higher than that"

COPPER QUEEN WILL Bt WORLDS GREATEST
 PRODUCER
Expert Estimates Arizona's Output for Year Will Reach S70,000,000 Mark in Value of Production.

Arizona's copper output for theI year 1906 is eonservatively estimated at 300. 0.0o0.o0O pounds. which isf one fourth of the estimated output for the North American continent This pro- duction of the territory. at an average seems to be assured-means a gross price of Is cents a pound-which now revenue from copper alone of $54,-I 0oo.000. Gold, silver. lead and other mineral production may be expected to bring up the gross yield from min- ing enterprises in Arizona this year to between seventy and eighty million dollars--a tidy sum for a territory striving for statehood. says the Los Angeles Mining Review.
 Greatest Copper Mine.
 It is predicted b. authorities that the Copper Queen mine will be within a few years the greatest copper mine in the world. Should this premier position be realized the Copper Queen will not as is the Rio Tinto in Spain be alone in magnificent isolation. It will be the head of a numerous group of great producers.
 Arizona, which ten years ago was looked upon by the vast majority of people in this country as a territory worthless save as a resort for inva- lids, is today of very deEnite value to the nation. Its copper output. esti , mating the cost at g cents a pound, represents clean gain of new na- tional wealth amounting to S27.o00,- 900. Its cost of production, another S27, ,000,O0O. will be expended in la bor; therefore, it will contribute that much during this year to the support of the people of the United States. 1906 Contribution. This wealth of copper, gold and other metals to the value of upward of S70.0O0. 900 will be Arizona's con- tribution for 1906 to the available cash balance of the United States. A similar contribution. and undoubtedly greater one, may be counted upon year by year for long period. What. then, does this producer of new
 wealth, which is the very life blood of prosperity in this country, deserve | and what has it received at the hands of the people?
 The population of Arizona is chiefly American and of a particular i ly sturdy and independent type. Be- cause of the great mining enterprises that have grown up within the terri ] tory during the last decade. thers has i been a steady inflow of men of all | grades but, on the whole far above | the average in intelligence. education and energy. Per capita earnings are | high.
 | Right of lf-Governmcnt. The population is greater than has l been required of other territories en- tcring the union. and is growing rap- | idly. These people. intelligent, pros 1 porous. vigorous. want the right to i manage their own affairs. as do other | Americans. They have been offered
 statehood under conditions that would l place them in a minority-that would | taI<a from them the power to order
 their own future.
 Fortunately for Arizona the people
 have the opportunity to reject it, and i so decidedly as to vindicate their right
 to self-government or the lines that 1 their own sober judgment tells them
 are best and safest.
