THE SPOKANE & INLAND
Rails Laid to CoIfax Saturday
MANY People Out.
Line Will Be Ready for Traffic Aug :
ust Steam Power Will Be
Used at First.

The Spokane & Inland is here. Like
the COssack, who moves upon the enemy
without blare of trumpets, it came al
most unawares. The grade down the
river has been finished for a long time
The tunnel has been an object of interest,
and has been visited by pedestrians and
others by hundreds. The novelty of all
this, however, has lOrg since worn away;
toOt Of the trolley car. 1t was said the
ack-layers were coming, but no steel
rails were seen, no ties in sight, no men
at work, no outward signs that any
thing was doing, The report came on
the wings Of the breezes that Tennessee
fat had been reached, and that the
enemy (metaphorically speaking) was
marching on the citadel (COlfax) at the
rate Of three-quarters OF mile day.
Swains and maidens and bachelors and
bachelor maidens continued their even
ing walks down the grade, little thinking
that their privacy would soon be ruth
lessly broken, for was not the stiffness
of nature DER all the land, save the rip
pling laughter of the river as it glided to
the sea, or the song birds piping note
as it sang to its mater Then it was said
the tunnel was passed. Finally the fair
grounds were reached, and for the first
time-to a great majority, at least
was understood what modern track lay
ing meant.
The old-fashioned way of scattering
rails and ties along the road bed for
miles, employing many teams and a
large force of men, is done away with.
The modern method is the quickest and
best. 1t is in keeping with almost every
thing we do nowadays. The rails, the
ties, the fish plates and the spikes are
carried along, a locomotive pushing the
whole thing ahead as fast as two rails
are laid and spiked. The construction
train at work on the Spokane & Inland
consisted Of four fat cars loaded with
construction material then came the
locomotive Hit tdT Oh WUlbu TeSJeu
water tank came next; then followed a
caboOse, with fat car loaded with
spikes and sundry articles-an outfit
complete and moving along with the
regularity and precision of an army.
Seventy men we're employed-solne with
picks, passing the ties one to apother to
the front, which slid on rollers arranged
on one side Of the four front cars; still
Others with graphing hooks passed the
heavy Trails over like rollers on the
other side of the fats to follow the lay
ing OF the ties as these reached the fore
most car other men laid hold and took
them to the place designated, a derrick
swinging the heavy rails into place,
which were spiked in one or two places,
just enough to hold them together, it

ANOTHER WEED PEST.
French Pink, or Bachelor Button,
Should Be Eradicated.

While people are taking eognizance of
the weed nuisance they should not lose
sight Of the French pink, or bachelor
button as il is frequently called. 1t can
pest as China lettuce. The bachelor but
ton has a beautiful flower, pale blue in
color. 1t is planted and cultivated in
many yards, but like the rabbit in the
animal kingdom, it ceases to be JOY
forever and multiplies and spreads, driv-
ing out more valuable plants, In the
south end of Colfax and other places by
the roadside, where vehicles do not reach
it, it bobs up serenely, and if it gets to
the wheat fields it may be the cause of
doing much damage. People are eau
toned against cultivating it, and are
advised that the safest course is to get
rid of it in all cases if possible. The fact
that it has an attractive flower is no
thing in it's favor. 1t can become pest
of the serious kind. A field of "Jim Hill"
mustard as seen from a car window is
frequently beautiful sight, but it chokes
out the wheat and becomes an enemy.
The bachelor button is not so deep root
ed or tenacious of life as the Canada
thistle, the dandelion or wild mustard
but is spreading weed capable Of doing
harm and should be looked after the
same as other pests.
The attention of The Gazette has been
called to this matter, and it takes pleas
ure in directing it's readers along the
lines Of killing out the weeds.

this means every citizen could be made

GRANGE At EVANSVILLE
Celebration at LyIe's Grove a
Grand Success.
ihree Thousand People Present. :
Much Fine Stock in Evidence
Valuable Prizes Awarded.

10 those who believe the Fourth Of
July should be observed in way to edu-
cate and improve the community, to in
cite to higher ideals, without curtailing
any OF the legitimate pleasures of the less
thoughtful, the three days celebration of
the Ewartsville Grange at Lyle's grove
on Union fat would seem to leave
nothing to be added. The crowds were
estimated at 500 to 800 the first dav.
1900 the second day and 25OO to 5000
the third and last day,
The exhibition Of live stock OF which
any community should be proud. with
sports filling the afternoon of each day,
and the premium in the hand of the win
ner at the outcome of every race or
other event, was unique feature of this
occasion. A five-act drama was render
ed on the evening of the second day,
composed entirely of local talent, several
OF whom could fill places on the stage of
tirst-class theater, free to all in the
large tent, was another source OF great
attraction. With Oratory by such
speakers as President E. A. Bryan of the
Washington State College, Judge. E. X.
Hanna Of COlfax, Thomas Neil, Rev.
Powell and Rev. Marion the patriotic
and intellectually inclined received their
share. And the dance each afternoon
and evening, where from 40 to so
couples were constantly engaged until
midnight only to the time OF the sweet
est music, all went to fill the three days
with JOY without one disturbing feature.
