ISOLATION, at StAnwood, Wash, on Dec.

lege. and as secretary Of the Dairymen's

arranging for this contest. believes that
the dsirying interests OF Washington
have a vital need for such comparison
Of produce. Stating his reasons, he said
1--WE must acknowledge that Washing
ton creamery butter is below standard
Why is this? The creamery man saysi it is
because the cream is poor; the farmer
says the creamery man doesn't know how
to make good butter. There is reason
for the poor quality OF our butter Of
course, and the best way to find the
reason is for the butter.makers Of the
state to get together and compare their
product. Our butter lacks uniformity
therefore get together, and discover the
reason. For this. hope that every
dairyman in the state OF Washington
will either bring or send box OF butter
to this contest"

had aroused the ire of Schneider;
that his character as a man and Oh
ficer suffered by reason of this action,
and that he wanted a hearing, and
an opportunity to reply to any
charges that might be brought
against him. Mr.. Cram might as
well have been talking to a tele-
phone pole. He was choked off, and
the game went on.
A resolution was adopted for 16-
foot plank road ON Marion street be-
tween Crockett and Boone.
A. p. White was engaged to check
ND the water consumers, at salary
of SO per day.
An ordinance was read and re-
ferred to the judiciary committee,
creating a paid fire department, con-
sisting Of a chief engineer and as
sistant; six full paid men and six
part paid men. The ordinance Is
nearly as long as the moral law,
about four-fifths of it properly be-
longing in a set of bylaws that could
be altered as necessary without the
expense of repeating the ordinance.
Owing to an error in the resOlu-
ton for a. sidewalk on Chehalis
street, 81 feet was omitted, but Con-
tractors Haukli & Hegdale had built
that part by mistake, and desired to
be paid for 1t or allowed to take 1t
up. They were ordered paid for the
81 feet.
Bids for water pipe for South Alb
erdeen were laid over week on re-
quest of the committee.

ing to the High school.
The street committee was given
power to act in putting in drain
in the street near the south approach
to the West bridge.
The guards over the sewer pipe
on H street that are out of position,

coosen. The chorus now numbers about

1.-THE Coming of the King" is more of
q real "Messiah" than the old oratorio,
for the reason that the oratorio is all
prophecy, while the new cantata is the
story of the iulflment. The solos are all
very beautiful, while the choruses cover
every phase Of musical feeling, from the
silent night on the plains of Bethlehem
to the stirring march Of the three wise
men and their retainers. The cantata
ends with one OF the best settings ever
written of the "Adeste Fidelis," the last
verse of which ia to be sung by the en-
tire audience with the chorus.
The big choir is already twice as large
as last years, and new voices are being
added every week.
