tRcportcd by MISS NELLIE ALLEN
The Morgan County Teachers AS
sociation held their sessions in Ver-
sailles, Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day, October %, 20 and ~.
We met Thursday morning at 10
O'Clock and Mr.. Wittcn, our worthy
County Commissioner, was elected
chairman, and Ed. Gehrs secretary.
About seventy teachers were enrolled.
At this session Mr.. Kiesey, agent for
the American Book Company, from
Chicago, delivered lecture on
"Teachers' Salaries.' In the after
noon he delivered another lecture on
"Prcparation of the Teacher" He
urged the teachers to attend the SUM
mcr normal schools.
Friday morning we had with us
Prof. Hoover, head of the agricultural
department of our Warrcnsburg State
Normal. He delivered an interesting
and instructive address on "Naturc
Study" Friday evening he delivered
his popular lecture, "Among the
Alps" in the circuit court room.
Prof. Hoover was always ready for
any question the teachers should ask
him.
Saturday DIR. Riley, from Columbia,
delivered an address on "Sociology."
His lecture was enjoyed by all.
Rev. Emory, pastor OF the Metho-
dist church Of this city, was present
during the entire sessions of the Asso-
citation, and each morning had charge
OF the opening exercises.
Hon. Conway Jones was present
each day and took an active part.
He was the only district clerk present
at this meeting. He is the teachers
friend, always ready and willing to
help the teacher through difficulties.
Mr.. Baker, editor OF the Statesman,
presided Friday afternoon, Mr.. Wit
ten having been called away. Mr..
Baker was very much in favor Of
obedience in school. 1t is true that
II children obey while at school the
teacher finds very little trouble.
This Association was one Of the
best ever held in this county. Each
teacher seemed Interested and took
an active part in the proceedings.
The program as printed, was carried

million dollars. The mansion alone has
cost already more than $4,000, and the
roof Is not on, and the interior fittings
are yet to be transported and placed.
The cost of the great greenhouses in
which Snyder planned to grow peaches
and oranges, grapes ard figs the year
around, can only be hazarded.
Around the lake and the buildings, the
hear, Of the Snyder Eden, comprising
more than 200 acres, is TO he erected
rustic stone fence at a cost of thousands
Of dollars.
Beyond, i'll the great game preserves,
broken by its natural bridges its wonder
full caves and deils, and tle huriyng.
jubilan, Niangua, Mr.. Snyder planned
to find retreat from the cares and sor.
rows that had filed his later years.
Two thousand pheasant eggs hatcl,e,l
OIL the estate last spring had stocked the
estate with these beautiful game birds.
Quail, prairie chicken, wild turkey,
squirrels and rabbits abountled there to
such an extent that no reinforcement
was needed. Had the milliona re lived
to enjoy his Paradise it would have been
lacking none Of the allureincn,s of
which lie had dreamed.
OFFERED TO GIVE COUNTY $4,000 TO
BUILD A ROAD.
That his Eden might be accessible 10
his friends from the outer world, Mr..
Snyder offered to give to Lacicde Coun-
~, lying Just south of his estate, in Cam
den County, Sl0,0W for the construction
of splendid road from Lebanon 10 tie
north county line. This offer probably
would have been accepted, and likely
will be il the estate rencws it.
That it is intended by Mrs. Snyder
and George +. Snyder, brother of the
late promoter, to complete his plans aud
make his dream a reality, is best
evidenced by the fact that Mr.. WI.
Deiffendorfer, cashier of the Bank of
Lebanon, yesterday received telegram
from the First National Bank, Of Kansas
City, to honor all outstanding checks
against the snyder estate for the work
being done at la -Ha- -Tonka.

sUMMArED.
Mr.. Deiffendorfcr, who has all along
been thoroughly convcrsant with the
Snyder plans for the establishment of
this Missouri paradise in the Ozarks,
believes that MIR. Snydcrs death will not
interfere with their execution.
Mr. Sny dcr's BROTHER sair Mr. Def
tendorfer, over the long. distance

mas all along had active charge of the
making Of this new Eden. My under
standing is that he will proceed with the
plans AS ii the uUtimely end of his
brother had not occurred. The buildings
already erected are insured in his name,
and lie knows and synpa,liizes with his
late brothers plans and dreams.

TRYING TO RAISE LARGE HERDS
Most Money to be Made by Raising

&c. Londergan, the well-known beef
buyer, was in the city yesterday. Mr.
Londergan buys more cattle than any
buyer operating in the Pacific north
west. He is representative of the
Frye Bruhn Company of Seattle. About
twice year he pays visit to Walla
Walla. In an interview yesterday Mr.
Londergan said:

Prices. know, are none too nigh now
but I look for an advance in prices in
the near future. also think the de-
mand in your district for first-class
cattle will witness no falling off but
will continue to increase.
"I would advise" said Mr.. Londer-
gan, that the farmers of your coun.
try drop the idea of trying to raise
large herds of poorly bred stock or
the ranges. The farmers who are max
ing the most money today in the cattle
business are those who raise small
herds and properly take care of ano
feed the same. Range lands are be-
coming scarcer every year. Every far
mer should get wise to this facl
and not be caught mapping. The

North Coast Promoters Have Been
Busy For Years.
MAJOR PART OF SURVEYS COMPLETED
Traffic Contracts Have Been Made
That Would Astonish One or
Two Other Lines,

The North Coast railroad, it trans
pires, is not a creation of this year
nor last. The major part of it's survey
was completed more than two years
and a half ago, and it probably would
nave come to light earlier had it not
been that the general collapse in rail-
way enterprises in 1903 checked it.
Contracts have been made for traffic
at various points that would astonish
agents and officials of one or two other
lines if they were published in detail.
The proposition, visionary as it looked
at first, has been pretty we'll ahead of
the game for a long time. Some Of
the principal troubles of the Milwau-
kee board in locating the new line to
the Pacific coast are traceable to the
fact that the communities through
which the new Milwaukee line will run
had been pretty thoroughly canvassed
by the North Coast people prior to the
appearance of the Milwaukee agents.
The securing of terminal rights ut
various points has been smooth piece
of work, judging by results. Only at
Seattle mas there been the least
trouble due to the fact that the Hill
agents at Seattle had their eyes open,
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1906-02-10

and that the city council wanted TO
know so much in advance.
North Coast is backed by enough
capital to build the road and four
more like it, if the capitalists wanted
to go in for things on the Jim Hill
scale. If it should be found advisable
to build more branches than those laid
down in the scanty outline given ~
the press by Mr. Strathorn, the syndi-
cate will supply the funds. There is
only one man from Washington in the
crowd that is behind the road, and
the fasteners have the cash. At any
rate, the company will have as affilia-
tons at least one other railroad now
under construction in the northwest,
and perhaps two.
The relationship between this COM
pany and the Spokane & international
now building a line north from Spo-
kane, must remain a matter Of con-
pCStoIC. II IIldy SIMPLY nc ooouAiSN
that the Spokane & International, alias
the Canadian Pacific, is not one of the
numerous and interesting foes Of the
North Coast railway.
This road will have to earn about
$1,000 per mile in net to look after its
cost, if the whole thing should be put
into bonds at about per cent. This
won't be DONE The syndicate believes
that the road will earn this money. In
all probability, not more than one-ha'f
of the original cost will be met by q
direct bond issue, entailing a carrying
cost Of about half a million dollars a
year. This would leave safe surplus
after charges, even if the road only
managed to make $110J per mile. The
financing has not yet been arranged
and sketches Of it in advance are to be
understood as the merest sketches.

eastern farmer makes money raising
cattle on $4,000 land. With less ex-
pensive lands the advantage ought "a
be in favor of the western farmer
every time when it comes to the rails
ing Of cattle.
Each year the Sound cities are be-
coming better markets for cattle. So
the farmers in this vicinity if they
raise the right kind of cattle need not
fear for first-class market.
Here is something you might put
in your paper as coming from me-
said Mr.. Londergan: "a meat concern
in your city that Is not slow by any
means, is the Walla Walla Meat &
Cold Storage Company. The class u
meat I found hanging in this COM
pany's markets was really a surprise
to me. 1t is all steer meat-the kind
of meat that is only found in the finest
markets of the big cities. In the av-
erage small cities throughout Wash
ington and Oregon COW meat and that
stuff is the only thing you will see in
the meat markets. And the facilities
possessed by the Walla Walla Meat &
Cold Storage Company for the handl-
ing of their products are as up-to- date
and as good as any I have ever seen
anywhere and am familiar with the
best wholesale and retail meat mark
cts on the coast"
