Mr.. Libby misconstrues the position
of the Evening Teller. This paper has
and will continue to use it's columns In
support OF every project launched by
the irrigation companies.
The Evening Teller. however. will
not sanction a movement to raise pub
lie funds for the advertisement of pri-
vate enterprises. An irrigation COM
pany has no more right to ask the pub
lie to advertise it's lands than mer-
chant has to ask public funds for the
advertisement of his merchandise.

WOULD AFFECT
$4,000 ISSUE
Courts May Find This
Amount OF Warrants
to be Void

The question whether or not non
abutting property can be assessed for
the construction of a sewer system
and the point raised by the East End
club regarding the validity of war
rants drawn on special assessment
funds has taken ON a serious aspect.
These two subjects have been placed
before the taxpayers Of Lewiston
through the medium Of the Evening
Teller. and the matter has been the
subject Of much discussion the past
two days.
Started Much Discussion.
Attorneys for warrant holders and
persons owning property affected by
special assessments are busy today
looking into the legal phase Of the
question, and the matter IS q COM
mon topic Of discussion on the street
corners.
This would affect $33,o53.1s worth OF
special assessment warrants issued by
this city and yet unpaid. OF this total
s1e.64s461 were issued for the normal
hill sewer, $12,000.00 for the East Main
street Improvement B, and $4.405.17
for the Thompson addition improve
ment. This amount was due Septem-
Der 30.
The question Of special assessments
Involves section 75 Of the charter Of
Lewiston, which provides for the max
Ing Of the special Improvement dis
tricts. 1t il the. on nion of able at
torneys that this section provides
tax that might eventually fall on the
whole people and that II 1t does this
conflicts with the provision ,of the con-
stitution requiring the subnae ssion of
levy Of indebtedness calling for as
seasments Of more than 10 miles fer
any given year TO be submitted to the
people. ~ = t:.y 4
II the courts should so hold they
would also hold this section of the
charter unconstitutional.
Boise Has Same Provision.
There is a similar provision to this
one in the charter Of Boise and the
indebtedness of. that city would be
affected the same as that of Lewiston
by such a decision.
Since the attention of the city coun-
Gil was called to defect in the resolu-
tion providing for the issue of assess
ments for the sewer system now build
ing, the council has ordered City Clerk
Nickerson to prepare new notices
making the assessment more specific.
The former notices stated that the
assessment was made for down town
sewer district No. 1, and did not cover
Districts 2, 3 and of the same sys-
tenn. The plans Of the council, .how-
ever, are to build sewer in Districts
1. 2 and 3, or that territory extending
from Snake river avenue to Twenty
first street.

BUILD FIRST
TO LEWISTON
Hartman Seeking Wate(
Grade From Rockies =
to the Coast

PORT LAND, Dec. Ian advances,
OF the construction of the Southern
Pacific railroad through central Ore
gon to Huntington, the Hartman
companies will build a railroad from
Huntington to Lewiston, following the
course Of the Snake river. Operations
by the Northwestern and the Northern
Pacific in that territory have alarmed
the Union Pacific Interests and they
have determined to take no chances e
losing the >pnly water grade. from
Wyoming to the Columbia river.
1t is said,s construction of the Snake
river line viii be eoumenced within
the next 90 days. Preparations WIN.
be made during the winter and dirt
will fly on the grade early next sprisx.
The surveys have been made, ana care
ful examinations completed by trafac
and engineering experts. Final grade
stakes are being driven and the sur
veys are being placed on file as fast
as they can be prepared.
The work will be done under direc-
tion Of the Oregon Short Line. A few
months ago this company began ex-
tension OF the Union Pacific system via
Vale. through central Oregon. The
road has been completed to Vale ana
turned over to the Hartman oficials.
It was the intention to push construc-
tion from the klamath extension east
ward, and from Vale westward, untn
a trunk line had been completed
throueh the state from east to west.
The Klamath extension win be car
ried on With in possible speed between
klamath lakes and Nation. but work
on the line through central Oregon
will. 1t is reported from official Short
Line sources, be held in abeyance un-
til the Snake river line is well under
way or completed. With the present
condition of the labor market there n
a well defined limit to the amount OF
railroad construction work that can be
advantageously carried on in the Pa
cific northwest. All over the coast la
borers are scarce and hard to keep.
The result of construction of the
Oregon Short Line through the Snake
river valley to Lewiston will be to
give the Union Pacific system possess
sion Of the only continuous chain Or
water grades from Portland to the
country east of the Cascade and Bit
ter Root ranges. 1t will give trans
portation facilities to extensive con-
per deposits in the Seven Devils coun-
try in Idaho It's effect on Lewiston
will be to greatly stimulate the conn
mercial prospects Of that region, ana
to some extent recompense it for the
Milwaukees abandonment Of the Clear
water basin.
