What the Merchants Have to Say.

S. G. CORNWEIL OF G.. G. CORN
WELL & SON--I am unalterably op-
posed to the proposed increase in the
numter of trees Already l am in
con"e1ienced by vaulted streets. and
It would be impossible to add any more
trees on that account near my place.
Further, our side OF the Avenue is
shaded already.
F. SPINK-There are too
many trees already along the Avenue.
They interfere with customers alight-
ing from carriages, and are an incOn-
venience in more ways than one For
my part. / am against the idea. and
viii endeavoT to do my utmost 20 pre-
vent any such steps.
HENRY J. DAVIS-It makes no differ
ence to me il the Avenue Is made a
street of trees. 1t will not affect me
one way or the other.
CHARLES A. SHAFER. OF HARRIS &
SHAFER-No. We have too many
trees now They interfere with the
light and have no place on a busi-
ness thOrOughfare. Even the few that
you see now are an inconvenience
70 traffic and customers, and an in
anything more is added 20 the electric
light poles and trees that front my
place, 1 shall be forced TO move.
L GROSNER-I have already expressed
my opinion OF the project in a letter 10
the Commissioners. | am opposed 10
the addition Of any more trees to the
ones that are now proving themselves
undesirable 10 the business men on the
Avenue.
NORMAN GAIT. OF GAIT e. BRO-I|
have sent letter to the Commissioners
protesting against this move Il is not
for the best interests OF the merchants
W. L. COLLARD. Of CCLLARD & CO.
Aly side Of the Avenue is shady. any
way. The sun never reaches the build
ing line on the south side Of the Avenue.
and trees are unnecessary. They OBJ
struct the light and the view. and hurt
business. No business street in the
country is burdened with them.
r. BAUM OF BAUM x SON-Wa don't
want beauty at the sacrifice Of business.
and that is what a number of trees will
mean. They are inconvenient in every
way
HESS q Cove don't want them.
SAMUEL POSNER. OF POSNER
BROS.-We don't care one way or the
other
D. y WALFORD-They are a nuisance.
People can't get out Of carriages. can't
read the advertisements, and can't see
a store from the street cars. I am
against such a project
q. MINISTER BROS Trees hide the dis
play Of store windows.

WORKED on WITH
HIS SKULL CRACKED

At ST. Luke's hospital yesterday
an operation was performed on the
head of Joseph Fuhs. who was snf-
fering with concussion of the brain.
Fuhs is cattleman of Wisdom,
Mont. He started with a load of
cattle but met with an accident at
his head. He regained his bearings
and went on with his work as il
nothing had happened. He was
untroubled until yesterday when
nearing Spokane He finally lost
all control and had to be taken to
the hospital. where surgeons re-
moved small piece of bone from
his skull. He will recover.

of the ten points of Gills plans and
modified slightly two of them. He
rejected the other engineers plans.
Yet, even after this, the Review and
Chronicle have consistently refused
to give Mr.. Gill credit for this work
When the work had been done. the
Review printed story after story of
tremendous streams of water flow
ing from leaks in the new reservoir.
1t said the work was bad. The writ
err this article Investigated the state
ment as 10 the leaks. 1t was I'M
true. The Review, aided by Mr.
Pratt, sent for Mr.. Tanning to come
west again for the purpose of hav-
ing the work done by the Democrats
in the new system discredited. But
when Mr.. Tanning came, he APPROX
ed the work. He said: We'll done"
Did the Review and Chronicle ad-
NIT that they werewrong in their
criticism? Did they admit that
they had made in their news col
umns statements of fact which were
untrue? They did not. They had
not the courage to admit their
error and to any citizen who
doubts the truth of this statement,
We refer him to Mr.. Fanning's re-
port and the news and editorial
columns of these papers in the
thirty days succeeding the filing of
the report.
Again, the CoWles newspapers
have printed, within the past three
months, statements that Mayor
Daggett has been permitting high
waymen. hold-up artists and bur-
glars to ply their nefarious trade
within this city; and they have
gone further than that. They have
stated in almost so many words,
that the highwaymen have agreed
to cease operations until after cleo
ton, when new carnival Of crime
will be inaugurated. OF course. no
man old enough to wear long
trousers puts any stock in such
ludicrOus stories, and, of course,
the decent and clean citizens of the
community will rebuke such journ-
alism; but we merely cite these
instances to show that there is no
limit to which the Cowles news
papers will not go in their frantic
effort to elect Mr.. Moore.
1t has been said that truth is
priceless, and we believe that the
Review and Chronicle must think
so. because, evidently, they have
but small stock of it on hand, and
in political matters feel the need
of letting none escape from their
offices.
