WiIIistOl State Tells HuIIlOr.
Ously Of the Fox
MCGahan Trouble

the trouble between Receiver Tom
Fox and Register L. D. McGahan Of
the Minot land office:
M The first battle is over but peace
is still tar away. Lorenzo Dow Nc,
Gahan is under bonds and Tom Fox
is statesman out Of a job. The.
smoke of battle lifted once, and then
the clouds began to hover again, and
a good many trimmers in Minot are
on the verge of prostration. They
don't know which way to jump.
They are feeling like man who
knew that ''he'd be id if he
did and would be ID if he
didn't Z.
The trial took place on Wednes-
day afternoon and Wednesday night
before Judge Goss at Minot, and
there Mayor Fox told tearfully of
the outrages perpetrated upon him
| by the domineering McGahan. 4 4
The pathetic story brought tears
to many eyes. Sam Clark openly
wept upon Tom Murphy's shoulder,
and the latter tried in vain to COM
fort him. Secretary of State Blais-
dell bore up splendidly as the story
of the warfare was unfolded.
| One of the chief bones of conten-
ton was the breath Of Mr.. McGahan
and from the testimony it may be
firmly and steadfastly stated that the
man who alleges that Mr.. McGahan
has breath you can hang your hat
on is not speaking advisedly. 1t is
even insisted that no man without
! .sen-sen has sweeter, purer breath
than has Mr.. McGahan.
i There were several witnesses
mostly experts, who testified to JUS
how Mr.. McGahan performed before

a DAIRY SCHOOL.
The State College CONDUCTING Trav.
cling Dairy Schools.

PULLMAN. October 9.-Because the
prices for dairying products in Washing.
ton are higher than they are anywhere
else in the United States, and the con.
sequent growth of the dairy industry in
this state, the state college experiment
station staff have planned. and are now
conducting series of travelling dairy
schools" for the purpose OF informing
farmers who are unable to attend the
regular courses in dairying offered by
the college and to stimulate the produc-
ton OF milk. 1t is intended to conduct
these schools in connection with the ex.
tension work of the college, in parts of
the state where the dairying industries
are paramount. Since the instruction
is primarily intended for farmers, butter.
making and cheese production will not
be considered. Professor e. E. Elliot.
OF the state college department of agri.
culture. will have general supervision Of
the work. but much Of the teaching will
be done by Mr.. Ira P. Whitney, dairy
instructor at the college.

Carl Peterson, young man, aged IL

dentally killed in Coats logging camp on
the Wishkah river, by boiler explosion,
Tuesday morning.
Deceased was engineer OF one OF the
donkey engines, and was at work getting
up steam before the crew turned out.
He must have turned on the injector af-
ter his boiler was hot, for the boiler was
sound in every particular, ant in nc
other way could the explosion have oc-
Cured.
The noise of the explosion aroused the
crew, who found the body about 400 feet
from the scene OF the disaster. Death
must have been instantaneous, as life
was extinct when the crew arrived.
With the exception of broken thigh
bone, the body was not marred, though
when first taken to the morgue of Bowes
& Randolph, the SCOT had so blackened
the body that it appeared all broken
and cooked.
a brother worked with him at the
same camp, and another brother is on

ELMA TAXES.
City Council Fixes Levy at Low Rate
of Is Mills.

ELMA, Oct. 9.-The city council has
fixed the 1907 tax levy at 13 mills, the
lightest levy made by the four leading
towns Of ChehaIis county. 1t has been
the desire of many OF the leading citizens
OF Elma for some time that the water
system be improved materially. the i'm.
provements contemplated aggregating
abou, $4,000. Owing to the opposition
of many taxpaye ers, however, it was de.
cided at the last meeting of the council
that the system be left as it is for the
present. Therefore no levy was made
for the construction of water works. II
is contended by many here that the as.
sessed valuation OF Elma is lower, pro.
portionately, than the other towns ol
Chehalis county, and many OF the lead.
ing citizens assert that Elma is not pay.
ing her just proportion of the county and
stale tax.

TO FORCE BOND sale.
Hauser and Glynn Haze Scheme to
Raise Canal Money.
TBy Telegraph to The Tribune. ]

Albany, Feb 13-Canal bonds to the amount
of $1OO00OOO probably viii be issued within
week or two. These bonds must be sold at par
and they carry only 3 per cent interest Gus
toners in the past have not been so numerous
could be desired. The state was compelled
10 buy in good part of the last issue. There
FORE State Trea surer Hauser and Controller
Glynn have Matched a scheme to compel Gus
toners to buy.
Their plan is to refuse 10 deposit state money
with any bank unless it will agree to buy some
of the canal bonds, probably an amount equiv
alent to the amount Of state funds to be de-
posted with II. This idea these officials think
will result in a ready sale for the new bond
issue. since the banks always are eager 10 have
deposits OF state money At present there are
some three hundred banks in the state having
state money deposit. Thirty of these are in
New York City.
The state has outstanding with the banks from
S10000OO0 TO $l5,O000OO. On this money per
cent interest Is paid. The Controller and State
Treas surer think that the banks will make no
objection TO their plan. for If a bank took $3.50.
900 of the bonds. and received deposits of $780,
600 the state would receive 3 per cent on its
money: the bank would get the 3 per cent in
terest on the bonds and would be able. in addi-
ton, 10 invest the states deposit to bring in
higher rate Of interest.
