Trees for the Roadside.

Set out trees, adapted to this eli.
mate and soil, on each side OF the
public thoroughfares leading into
Spokane, thus enhancing the natural
beauty OF the roads, aside from being
OF inestimable benefit to the country
in the future, is the plan of H. c.
Blair. president of Blair's business
college, and an active member of the
city beautiful committee, says the
Spokane Chronicle.
The plan was proposed to the COM
mittee yesterday. but no action was
taken upon 1t at that time.
"While in Californa last winter"
stated Mr.. Blair, "when riding IN the
rain one day, l noticed long line OF
wagons and vehicles. and judging
from the long line thought 1t must

or the city's bridge fund OF $400,-
900, $171,193.9S has already been ex'
pended, and by the time the Washing
ton and Stevens street bridges shall
have been completed the total eEpen-
diture will be more than 100000
says the Spokane Chronicle. Tn1se
are the figures obtained by perusal
of the books Of the city's bridge cost
keeper.
Labor on all bridges up till April
16 totaled s66,043.22. Material,
equipment and supplies made up the
balance, sos. 1906. OF this amount
s145.4O1.3S is chargeable against the
Washington street bridge. This does
not, however, represent the true cost
OF the new structure.
There Is a deduction from this
amount Of s47,043.94 up till April l
for work and material on other
bridges and other city work, plant,
equipment, stock on hand and rock
sold to city contractors. This makes
the actual amount expended on the
Washington street bridge up till April
/, S9S,S5744, OF which $52.946.61 was
for labor, this item alone being near
ly $4,000 more than the original es-
timate OF cost for the whole bridge.
1t is estimated that between $751;
900 and $4,000 additional will be
necessary to complete the Washing
ton street bridge. making the total
cost OF this structure nearly $780,
900.
Up till today the cost Of labor on
the Stevens street bridge is s2920.19r
and material S362S.27. making to-
tai OF s6,54S.46. This does not include
the cost OF the big steel girders'
which were paid for before the bridge
fund came into existence. This
bridge will cost in all about $4,000
exclusive of the girders.

res for the production of crushed

senting the entire state, which can
advise with counties and municipali-
ties and encourage the establishment
of such Quarries as that which the
city of Seattle proposes to establish at
Deception pass.

Spokane Boys to See Fleet.

A special excursion Of Spokane cit
izens, composed Of the city and pupils
from the high and grammar schools
to visit Seattle at the time Of the visit
of the fleet, is a scheme proposed by
Mayor Moore, says the Spokane
Chronicle.
Spokane, as one of the most I'M
portant cities in the northwest, should
do her part towards expressing to the
government our appreciation OF the
recognition OF the commercial import
ance OF the Pacific coast" is the may
or's idea. 1.-THE visit OF the fleet to
this state will be a patriotic occasion
and should like to see the high
school boys. who will be our citizens
OF tomorrow. participate.
"a view of the fleet would serve to
impress both our older and younger
citizens with a sense of the dignity
OF the United States as a naval pow
er. I would like to see some organ
ization take this matter W and ar
range for a special excursion to Sc
attle."

A contract has been closed for the
transfer and immediate colonization
of the lands OF the oregon Military
Land Grant company, comprising
100000 acres in southern oregon. says
the Oregon Daily Journal. The deal
was consummated by II. A. Hunter,
president Of the land grant company.
The grant is taken over by the corpo-
ration, to be known as the Oregon
Valley Land Company of Kansas
City. Mo. The consideration is about
81, 100000.
A complete plan of colonization has
been adopted, following the lines OF
the purchasers in the disposition and
settlement last year of the San Luis
Valley Land company's large hold
ings in Colorado. The negotiations
between President Hunter of the Ore
gon grant and the eastern people
have been under way for nearly year
and its successful conclusion means
much for the southern part of oregon
west of the Cascade mountains.
Open New Region.
The great tract held for so many
years by the Booth-Kelly company,
and later by the Hunter organization
has never yet been offered to the pub
lie and has remained practically a
sealed book to the people at large.
although II has for a quarter of a
century been known as a region or
vast development possibilities. Since
the last years active campaign OF sur
veying by Hartman railroad engineers
through central and southern oregon
the grant has come into notice more
than ever before. 1t will be tapped
by the Southern Pacific and the Ore
gon Short line.
The grant has for several years
been owned principally by H. A. Hun
ter and Congressman Andrus of Min
nesota. It extends in a strip IL miles
wide from the summit of the Cascades
to the Snake river opposite Silver CITY,
Idaho. The portion involved in the
transfer just made begins at the east
side of the klamath Indian reservation
and includes all the lands east of that
division point
Reverse Present Policy.
From the day the grant was made
by congress in 1864 nothing has been
done to encourage settlement and de-
velopment. The new owners propose
Immediately to reverse this policy and
will encourage settlement by the sale
of the lands in small tracts. Up to
this time It has remained practically
intact as It was first set aside by the
government as a consideration to the
original company that built the first
wagon road through the state of Ore
gon.
The tract passes through klamath,
Lake, Harney and Malheur counties,
and is an empire as large as the state
of Rhode Island. 1t embraces scores
of fertile valleys and thousands of
acres of grazing lands. Among the
sections already partially settled by
lessees and others who have secured
homes on the alternate sections held
by the government are the Goose Lake
valley, Catlow valley, Warner valley,
Sprague river valley, all large. fertile
and well watered sections with soil
capable OF producing large crops of
fruits, grain and vegetables. 1t is said
the Catlow valley produces the larg-
