Falls City Has a Roseate Dream
Of Near Possibilities
FIGURES ON EXTENSION FROM DAYTON
CONNECT WITH GRAVES LINE
AND THEN-SMlCE.

That Walla Wallans may not only
loop the loop, but may ride all the
way to Spokane beneath the juicy
wire is now among the reasonable
probabilities.
The Spokane Chronicle, with char
acteristic Falls city modesty, is claim
ing that the Walla Wa,,a and Column
bia River traction line from Dayton
to Wallula, instead of being the means
of freight rate independence to Walla
Walla in conjunction with an open
river. is simply sort of feeder for
Spokane through the Graves lines.
It Reads Real Lovely.
Said the Chronicle yesterday:
"a report from Lewiston, Ida, says
that within a few days and possibly
before the end Of the present year,
surveyors will be placed in the field
at Dayton, Wash, by the Walla Walla
and Columbia River Traction company
to commence work on the permanent
survey of an electric line to Clarks-
ton and Lewiston. The work will be
completed at the earliest possible date
and construction work on the system
to be installed by the company, ex-
tending from Wallula to the twin
cities, will be we'll advanced during
the year of 1907, bonds for the con-
struction of the same having been
placed on per cent basis. The
company has alreaedy secured the en-
tire right of way from Wallula to
Dayton.
"The president of the company is
Hon. Miles c. Moore, the Walla Walla
banker, and the vice-president is At
torney Joseph Teal, the prominent
Portland attorney and active head of
the Open River association. A. f.
Campbell, the mining capitalist of
Spokane, is a director and the gen.
eral manager is John Morrow. a
wealthy resident of Waitsburg.
"At the time of organization there
was a report that the company was
allied with a big Independent trans
portation movement which aimed to
service the entire Columbia river bas.
in by system of electric lines, con-
Meeting with a boat service on the
Snake and Columbia rivers, the cleo
trio lines to bring the traffic to the
rivers and the latter to provide the
independence of connection with tide
water Information now public seems
to give full confederation to the early
reports
those who had secured timber licenses.
Apparently, however, no attention was
paid to the regulations. and it became
easy for anyone to secure as many
timber cutting licenses as he pleased.
In utilizing these licenses the timber
was actually moved down. No stand
ing timber was left and it was taken
in wholesale quantities without refer
ence to the purposes for which the IL
censes We're secured.
| The law was purpOsed to give
pioneers in western mining the timber
necessary to carry on their work, but
its results were most disastrous. In
! fact the act proved one Of the most
fruitful sources of fraud under which
the government has suffered ever since

HEARST TO PAY PRICE.
Evidence of Deal sCith Murphy and
iSulliUars AsCdited.

On the superstition that the nomination OF Hearst
by the Democratic convention not brought
about until after the former had made deal
with the boss OF Tamrpany Hall and Tim SuIIi-
van those persons who have been interested IN
the nomination OF good men to the Legislature are
expecting to the candidate calmly stand for
such candidates Murphy and Sullivan want 10
put up.
If the Zeal that Sullivan has arranged for three
OF the Senate districts goes through will be con-
sdered proof positive that Hearst has agreed
to swallow anything that the Tarnmany Hall lead
ers want to do. The plan now Is to turn down Sem
ator Marks for denomination IN the 9th District
He has been praised IN Hearsts papers as being
one of few unassailable men sent to the Senate by
Tammany. John T. Mccall has been slated for
Senator Markss place Then Sullivan has decided
TO retire from Congress and go back to the Senate
from the uth District. He will replace Senator
Fitzgerald; but that tho latter may still stay IN
the Senate. Sullivan has had him move into the
18th District.
Assemblyman Leslie ]. Tompkfrs, y no con-
sdered one OF the ableSt and cleanest OF the Tam
many AsSemblymen. is q candidate for nomination
to the Senate from the 18th District, and has re-
ceived high praise from the Hearst newspapers.
People are wondering whether Hearst will stand
for his turning down in favor Of Senator Fftz-
gerald who was largely responsible for the defeat
Of the So-cent Gas bill two years ago.
The Citizens Union is keeping a careful watch
the situation and will expose the whole scheme, IL
an attempt Is made to carry it out.
