! That Walla Walla's condition, both
financially and physically. is unusual
ly credi:able was evidenced by the Sc, :
eral reports of the city officers last
night at the meeting of the city coun-
Gil. Accountant Stein, after a thorough
investigation of the books, found the
city affairs most satisfactory, as only

! found and reported to the council.
| The total of the city's income for the
month of October, according to the re-
port of City Clerk Hart, was more
than $4,000. Of this amount, $4,346.25
was received through the police de-
partment on delinquent taxes and So
, $50 for city licenses.
Building permits to the value of
! $5S,725 were issued for buildings by
Building Inspector Metz during the
month of October. This report caused
considerable surprise as it is excep-
tionally good for the month of October.
Building operations, however, are still
ir. progress, and it is the belief of
Chief Metz that his report for the
present month will also be good.
The report of Health Officer Braden,
shows 80 deaths during the past month,
or less than one death eOch day. The
report also shows "a births.
The regular routine work of the
council consumed considerable time as

The appointment of Frank Bowman

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional rem
edieS. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous. lining
of the Eustachian Tube When this
tube is ir.flamed, you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and wher
it is entirely closed. Deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation car
be taken out and this tube restored
to is normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by Catarrn, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition oil

| With the nearing of the end of the
week, the football flame is be-
ing famed to white heat and the
discussions of the subject are lot con-
fined to the college. On the streets ana
| in the stores there is heard the talk
of the chances of the various colleges
in the northwest for the championship.
Whitman's prospects for a winning
team are growing better every day.
Camp. the stalwart right guard who
played such a great game against
Multnomah, has at last registered in
| necessary to play in the college games.
Camp has been in school all fall but
has been backward in taking. up his
full course as his attention was taken
to business down town.
Borleske is improving and it looks as
if he would surely be in for the
Thanksgiving game, if not before Per-
niger will soon be in and his addition
to the team will mean much for Whit
man.
Washington is to bring her best team
over here to meet the Missionaries for
if she fails here, her chances for the
championship are wiped out once for
all. She must win this game to keep in
the race and 50 must Whitman.
Whitman will have probably the
lighter team but that team will be
coached in team works with the regu-
larity and precision of an eight day
clock
Doing Hard Work.
Coach Baird is working hard with
the men and they are all out for the
pennant and determined to get it. Tom
Drumheller was out at the practice
last night, giving the boys the benefit
of his long experience in the game and
suggesting some new plays which are
bound to be winners
Whitman has some good plays for
use in the Friday game and the bunch
from across the mountains will have to
go some if they defeat the local ag-
gregatiOn of football stars.
Idaho plays w. S. c. Friday and this
game is of more immediate interest to
local enthusiasts than any other game
which is to be played outside of the
one in this city. If Idaho can make
a good showing against the much
| touted w. S. c. team it will show that
| the big scores of the latter school
| have been made by running over
schools not nearly so strong. If on the
other hand w. S. C. runs up her ex-
| tain degree that her offense and de-
| Tense are what is claimed for them,
absolutely invincible. Just what the
outcome will be is hard to say. as u
of l. has met nothing but good teams
ard the w. S. c. has had walkovers
| in every case.
Between 0. A. c. and the L. of O.,
there is likely to be a one-sided con-
and with a large score.
Despite what the football critics on
the coast say, always picking U. of W.
as a winner over Whitman, there are
plenty in the city who are willing to
back their convictions that Whitmar r.
will lower the proud colOrs of the
state "U' on Ankeny field next Friday.

Santa Fe Officials Doubt The
Story-Attorney For Company

Of Rellnqulshing
Any Land.

Roswell, N. NJ, Oct. 2O--A special
dispatch to the Record from Clovis.
N. NJ. says that United States Conn
missioner Curren Is accepting home-
stead applications on 216,000 acres
OF land there heretofore held by the
santa Fe railway company. The land
Is In one body and runs north be-
ginning four miles north of Clovis.

high and rush Is being made for
the new land.

TO BE AUTHENTIC.
The above dispatch Is not thought

10. w. Dobson, local attorney for
the Santa Fe said this afternoon that
he had no knowledge of the Santa
Fe owning any such large body OF
land in eastern New Mexico. Mr..
Dobson said that he did not believe
that the report was TRUE. .
Local ofiiclais-'of the Santa Fe
We're seen and none OF them have
any knowledge OF the Santa Fe own
ing any large body of land in the
Vicinity of Clovis.
One man said that he thought that
the report was started by some real
estate firm hoping to start a run into
the Clovis district. Considerable
land has been settled upon by home-
steaders in that part OF the territory
recently. Such a report would give
the place wide advertising as a good
place for homeseekers.

Growing Sentiment for Statehood.
The growing sentiment for single
statehood in New Mexico is shown
by the organization of a statehood
league in almost every town and
county in the territory But these
leagues are not necessary for the

governor added.

"The idea OF these statehood
