SURVEY ROUTE
DOWN HATAWAI

Word has been received from Gem
esee stating that surveyors in the en-
ploy of the Spokane Inland Railway
company left today to survey down the
Hatawai.
The impression is gained among
those familiar with the conditions that
the Inland has changed its plans. The
plans announced when Locating En-
gineer Robertson was here was that
the line would come down the middle
fork Of the Potlatch and down the Lit
tie Big Potlatch to Juliaetta, about 140
feet above the level of the town, and
strike the water grade at Arrow.
1t is now wondered If the company
has not rejected this route and de-
termined to try a route down the
Hatawai.

WATER RIGHTS
NOT INVOLVED

There will be no contest over water
rights between the Waha-Lewisten Ir-
rigation Co. and the Lewiston Sweet
water Co., as, both companies feel that
there is an abundance of water and no
need for trouble. This is the develop
ment shown in court this morning
when an attempt was made to connect
the Sweetwater company with Clifford
Riggs In a case brought by the Waha
company.
The case called was Waha- Lewiston
Irrigation Co. vs. Clifford Riggs. to
condemn certain lands concerned in
the water supply of their irrigation
scheme. The attorney for the defense
moved that the lewiston -Sweetwat9D
Irrigation company be made party
to the defense, stating that he had ex-
amined the records, and found that the
Sweetwater company had made filings
on some of the land previous to the
Waha- Lewiston company.
/. James E. Babb. who represents the
Lewiston Sweetwater company. i'm
mediately took the floor in protest
against such an action, saying:
We do not want to carry on litiga-
ton for any one. We have no quarrel
with the other company. There is IVA
ter enough for both of u.s."

COMPLETE PLANS
TERMINAL YARDS
Northern Pacific Officials
Inspect Land in East
Lewiston

The Northern Pacific company have
completed their plans for their term
inal yards and perhaps for the con-
struction of their round house and ma
chine shops. They are ready now to
go ahead with the work, and have de-
termined both the location and the
plans of construction.
This information became available
this morning upon the visit of G. II.
Plummer, western land agent for the
Northern Pacific, who has his head
quarters at Tacoma
Mr.. Plummer was accompanied by
+. w. Leadbetter of Portland. who
owns part of the land adjoining the
! tract on which the yards will be built
He was met at the train by l.. A.
Porter, who also owns part of the
land, and by Joseph Smith, right of
way agent for the Northern Pacific,
who was already in the city.
Make Change in Ditch Line.
The party went directly to the
grounds and there settled qhestions
concerning a ditch, which had inter-
fered with the plans of the company.
Mr.. Plummer explained VIVA, he want
ed and his requests were granted
promptly by Mr.. Leadbetter and Mr..
Porter.
Just what the plans were could not
be learned, neither did Mr. Plummer
say that the company would begin
the work at once, but his conversation
gave that general impression.
Both Mr.. Leadbetter and Mr.. Por-
ter he said, have been most kind
about helping us and readily respond
ed to our request to change the ditch
Until the present time he had not
-knewn definitely what our plans were
and of course could not tell just what
changes or concessions would be neces-
sary.' We have now the plans COM
plete and can make the necessary ar
rangements."
Mr.. Plummer was questioned furth-
er regarding the matter, but said that
his presence here today was merely
the finishing of unsettled details of
the company's general plan, giving the
impression that the company was now
ready to go ahead with the construc-
tion work.
Impressed With Lewiston.
The party visited Mr.. Porter's or
chard and picked some of the fine fruit.
Mr.. Plummer was especially Impress
ed with the way grapes fl irish in this
country
Il am interested in the construction
of the Kennewick canal" he said, land
believe that grapes will be a good
product for that country. For this
reason wanted to look over the vine-
yards here and get some IDEAS"
Mr.. Plummer was very much i'm
pressed with the. growth of Lewiston
He believes this city has great fu-
ture.
THE country above here that will be
| reached by the Grangeville line is re-
markable for it's productiveness," said
he. II never knew of a country before

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 9.-Since
the failure of the negotiations between
Premier Stolypin and the Octoberists,
and rounding out of the cabinet with
bureaucratic elements, negotiations
have been opened between the October
lists and Constitutional Democrats in
an effort to unite the peaceful progress
sive elements in the coming electoral
campaign.
Conferences are now in progress at
Moscow. Alex J. Gucplkouf, Count
Heyden and other leaders of the party
of the peaceful regeneration and
prominent moderate Constitutional
Democrats are looking to an alliance
whose aim shall be to make the COM
ing parliament an organ of construc-
tive Legislation instead of revolutionary
agitation.
An arrangement for the division of
seats between the two parties also is
contemplated. The Constitutional
Democrats realize that they cannot
carry the recall wing with them, but
they consider a split in the new align
ment of parties inevitable not later
than the assembling of the prospective
parties to congress, when the extrem-
lists will break away from the open
revolutionists.
