Every art known was tried on the

but there was no way to fasten the

Pullman'S Growth
two per cent. grade.

two per cent. grade.
The survey follows in a general way
the route of the Whitman line out
of Colfax, although it touches that
right of way in but one or two places.
1t does, however, cross the farms of
a number of people who have given
right of way to the Whitman people,
and that's where the trouble comes in
getting the right of way for the In
land. The two surveys follow the
same general course OF ouf Colfax to
the Gordon prune orchard. The In
land then follows Spring Flat to the
Ben Manning place, which it crosses.
The surveyors are now at the B. F.
Taylor place, about four miles west
of town.

Artesian City now Well in
Lead of the Towns of
the County

There are two unfailing evidences
of the growth and prosperity of city,
one being in the growth of postal re-
ceipts, and the other the increase
shown by the annual taking of the
school census. Through these evi-
dences the marvellous growth of Pull
man is shown.
The post Office department, under
date of July 18th, sent out a state
ment showing the growth of offices of
the second class in this state during
the year ending June 3Oth, 1906.
There are sixteen offices of this class
in Washington, of which number two,
Pullman and sColax, are in Whitman
county. The report shows the re-
ciepts of the Pullman office during
the past year to have been SO, 449, an
increase of 81, 100 over the previous
year, or per cent. increase of Ia.
The increase at Colfax for the same
period was 1913 ,or 20 per cent.
For the year ending June 30th, 1905,
Pullman showed an increase of II per
cent, while the county seat was
credited with a decrease of 1.2 per
cent, the only office of its class in
hesitate to show loss.
And these figures of the postoffice
department are substantiated with elo-
quent force by the annual school CEN
sus which has just been completed.
Last year Pullman was credited
with 700 children of school age. This
year the census just taken gives 826
children, an increase of 126, or 18 per
cent, and the increase is due, not
so much to the inculcation of Roose-
veltian ideas against race suicide as
to the coming to Pullman of new fam
lilies, and the building up of new
homes in our midst. The county seat,
during the same period shows loss
of 3 or in school population.

"A valuable brood mare that had

at eight o'clock Thursday morning,
the animal being in pasture at the

HAD SPORT IN BIG CHUNKS.


The Clark Mathena- Cannon camp
ing party returned from the tall tim
ber Thursday, but when you meet any
of the individual members of this ex-
pedition it is we'll not to discuss the
question too far for there are fea-
lures of the outing that they are try
ing hard to forget. And they lay it
all on the horses, poor, dumb brutes
with no way to defend themselves!
Trouble started when Mathena tried
to feed the equines oats. One of the
poor animals in its anxiety to get a
square meal knocked its benefactor
down, trampled upon his dignity and
various others portions of his anatomy,
rubbed the polish from his shoes, and
destroyed his chances of ever seeing
the pearly gates. Soap and water in
plentiful doses made Jim ready for So
ciety again, but when he appeared in
camp clad in newly laundered vest
but minus shirt, he was driven with
undue haste to the brush again, where
he succeeded in resurrecting his miss

To WRITE
HIS HISTORY
important Work Com
tempIated by Prof.
Alexander.

IF I live long enough, and if my
health holds out, l will re-write ny
| history of Hawaii" said Prof. w. D
Alexander yesterday. Il will find the
| materials in the archives of the coun-
| try, now being arranged and put in
complete order for reference for the
/, first time
Prof Alexander is himself a member
| of the Archives Commission, created
| by the last Legislature, and has taken
an active interest in the arrangement
OF the archives. It is understood,
moreover, that the idea of rewriting
his history has arisen in view of the
finds of important documents and the
discovery of historical data throwing
new light on old matters made in the
new search of the archives. Moreover,
it is thought that Custodian Lydecker
who is putting the archives in shape
for removal to the new Archives
Building now being erected in the Cap
itol grounds, has been asked to col
laborate with Prof Alexander in the
work. Mr.. Lydecker has himself be-
Hawaiian history since accepting the
place Of custodian under the Archives
Commission, and is in position to rem
der most valuable aid to any historical
search among the old records.
Alexander's History has long been
an authority upon Old Hawaiian mat
ters, and yet it has been felt that the
book, valuable as it is ana painstaking
as was its compilation. has left some
thing to be desired. 1t partook, when
it was issued something of the nature

say, there We're people then living who,

than 5000 miles from the local station.

AFTER THE
SMALL. BARS
The knti-SaIoon League
Wars on Liquor
Dealers.

| The Anti-Saloon League has taken
up the matter of illicit liquor sell
! ing, and will make things lively from
| this time forward for small dealers, in
! particular Japs md Porto Ricans, who
settle in suburban localities and peddle
ever comes. This evil of illicit selling
| of liquors has been growing to alarm
! ing proportions, it is said, especially
| in the rural districts on the windward
side of Oahu. An agent of the Anti
Saloon League was over in that coun-
try not long ago, and is said to have
secured evidence against not less than
half dozen keepers of japanese and
Chinese stores. All these will be pro-
ceeded against, and the agent is still
busy gathering evidence.
More than this, it is said that a
number of licenses have been obtained
by fraudulent petitions. 1t seems that
il is the practice to attach names 20
petitions without the knowledge or
S~'tH7SAA@
The dealers are very careful not to
put down fictitious names, because
informa ton has gone out that the
Treasurer of the Territory makes 1t
his business to search out the names
of men signed to petitions on the pre-
Cinct rolls, and if the names do not
appear as those of qualified voters in
the section where the license is asked
for. the petition is not granted. The
only way to get around this is to put
on the names and say nothing to their
owners about it
This, however, is not So general an
evil as the selling without any license |
at all, and the Anti-Saloon League |
agents are said to have found a lot |
IF these cases. OF course, the league |
people are reticent concerning their !
work. but it is to be noted that there |
have been a number of liquor cases
tried recently, and the promise is made
hat the number will be increased
