Statement by Mr.. Sammons
Editor of the Newport Miner:

Editor of the Newport Miner:
Dear Sir-In the last weeks Issue of
the Miner there appeared an account of
the proceedings of the city council, in
which | have been misquoted to some
extent. | would ask that YOU publish
this letter, for the purpose of correcting
same and placing the matter right be-
fore the public.
First stated that | was appearing
before the council at the request of the
property owners in block s, koch's ad-
dition, the only property owners in the
block excepting the /. d W. n. r. r..
Second-My remarks to Mr.. McInnis
were that, if the Pend d'Oreille River
Navigation Co. was an I. & w. n. r. r.
corporation, as | had been informed it
was, that he as general manager of said
company, in order to be fair to himself,
so that his attitude would not be ques-
toned either by the company or the
people, might refrain from voting upon
matter wherein the railway company
were seeking vacations of streets and
alleys, but did not question the right of
Mr.. McInnis nor any other councilman
to vote in any way upon any matter
before the council
Third stated that naturally man
who was endeavoring to make n success
OF any large enterprise would be favor
ably inclined toward it, that | had been
in such Il position myself, but made no
statement to the effect that had de-
livered the goods to anybody or any
thing.
FOURTH also stated that there was q
resolution introduced at the last meet
ing of the Commercial Club, to the eff
feet that in view of the fact that the
city had granted valuable franchises
and vacations to the I. q W. n. r. r.
Co., and that they were seeking for
more, that it was the sense of the club
that said railway company show its
appreciation thereof in substantial
manner by donating to the city of New
port 10 acres of land adjoining on the
west for public park, and that copy
OF the resolution be sent ito Mr.. Black
we'll, the president of the company, and
a copy sent to the city council, and the
secretary was instructed accordingly.
The resolutions passed unanimously.
This statement is absolutely correct, as
the minutes of the proceedings will
show, and can also be substantiated by
Mr.. Rogers, Mr.. Sherlock, Mr.. Suther-
land, Mr.. Coulter and others present,
President McMorran to the contrary
Notwithstanding. Respectfully,
NJ. NJ SAMMONs.

Franchise Ordinance Passed AGAIN

An adjourned meeting of the town
council was held Tuesday evening.
There was quite an attendance OF citi-
Gems, but not as many as usual, as there
did not promise to be any exciting de-
velopments.
Mavor Appel, Councilmen Hynes,
Caldwell and McInnls were present,
Councilman Bennett and Eckerson we're
out of town.
J. c. II. Reynolds, OF Spirit Lake, was
present, and on behalf of the trustees OF
| Spirit Lake extended cordial invitation
to the council to attend the big celebra-
ton of July 4th at Spirit Lake and be
guests of the trustees of that place. Also
a general invitation to the citizens of
Newport to be present at and assist in
the celebration.
A remonstrance of Philip and Mary
Nagle against the opening OF Second and
Third streets and State Line avenue was
read, they objecting on the grounds that
such vacations would materially affect
the value of their property and be detri-
mental to their interests.
Ordinance No. 76, granting franchise
to the Idaho &; Washington Northern
Railroad over certain streets and alleys
to the State line, was read by sections
! and adopted. This ordinance is exactly
similar to the one adopted by the coun.
Gil on MAY 10Th, and was passed the
second time on account of the opinion
of the general counsel of the railroad
that sufficient time had not interviewed
between it's second reading and passage
the first time.
During the reading of the ordinance
Mr.. Reynolds, for the Idaho & Wash
ington Northern, explained some OF the
provisions of the ordinance, and stated
that there was nothing in the ordinance
in any way injuring Mr.. Nagle, who
demonstrated against it's passage. Mr..
Nagle appeared and pleaded his case,
saying that in case the tracks were built
as provided in the franchise it would be
of great injury to his property, and made
it clear that "due compensation should
be made before the company received
the privileges asked. He also expressed
his willingness to dispose of his property
to the company for "due compensa-
tion.''

SMALL FARMING PAYS.
Me'lford Men Clean Up Neat Sum
on Truck Patches and Fruit.

on Truck Patches and Fruit.
Two persons engaged in truck gar
dening near Medford, oregon. have
given out a statement regarding the
cash receipts from their 20 acres Of
land for about 10 months and it shows
that they have reason to be proud
of their efforts, says the Salem
Statesman.
They claim that they would not
sell their farm at any price. What
they reported is as follows: Here
is the record from April 10. 1907, to
January II, 1908: Amount of gar
den truck sold, $225O, alfalfa hay
sold and now on hand, $220, and be-
sides this they have 500 worth OF
garden product now on hand and not
sold. Besides this from two cows
they have made eight pounds of but
ter each week which would add an
other $1O0 TO the aggregate, and
again the family living has been made
from the land. but this is not count
ed in the receipts
The total receipts. not including
the living of the family, is thus shown
to be $3.50. From eight acres of
land they sold $1,000 worth of pota-
toes, and from three-fifths of an
acre of land sold $500 worth of onions
and from one-third of an acre of
land sold $500 worth of onions. and
berries of different varieties they
realized $269 in cash"

NEWELL WILL HELP
Reclamation Service Takes Interest
in Irrigation Congress.

Director F. II. Newell Of the Uni
ted States reclamation service, In
letter received by Secretary Twitch-
ell. OF the board of control, yester-
day, promises his hearty support ana
that OF the service in making the
sixteenth national irrigation congress
a success. The reclamation service
has always naturally taken lively
interest in the irrigation meetings.
and this is no exception. The letter
follows
Department of the Interior, United
States Reclamation Service, Wash
ington, d. c., February "a, 1908.
Office OF the Director.
Mr.. r.. e. Twitchell, Secretary, ETC.,
Albuquerque, N. M.
Dear Sir: Your letter of January
20 has been received, with clippings.
AS a matter Of fact I have done .ev-
erything In my power to make these
irrigation congresses success, and
at the same time have endeavored to
put as little personality into the mat
ter as possible, and keep in the back
ground, as these meetings should be
strictly popular meetings
At the same time, 1t is, as you ap-
preciate, absolutely impossible not to
have the reclamation work take a
prominent part. If we did any less
we would incur criticism for being
lukewarm and unappreciative of the
subject.
In the same way, for the sixteenth
irrigation congress, / trust that 1t will
be possible for US to help you in many
details In so doing, however, we do
not wish the reclamation service to
be unduly prominent, or our men to
be at all conspicuous. In other
words, we desire to help you make
this not only a thoroughly enjoyable
but beneficial meeting Of practical
men from all parts of the country.
You can command us within our
ability to second your efforts along |
this line. Yours very truly.

INDUSTRIAL CONDITIONS OF CANADA

Consul Abraham +. Smith sends
from Victoria the following review OF
the industrial situation IN British Co
lumbia:
The same lack of employment for
labor which exists generally through
out the country is also evident on
Vancouver Island. A year ago 1t
was impossible to get. men to perform
the labor required; enterprises were
abandoned, and work suspended. AS
a consequence wages reached un-
precedented figures. The lumber
mills on the island also suffered from
lack of labor Thus the large mills
at Chemainus and at Mosquito har-
Dor found difficulty in fulfilling con-
tracts.
With the financial stringency which
set in at New York in october a de-
cided change took place. The de-
cline in price and almost entire ces-
sation of demand for lumber has
caused the two largest lumber mills
on the island, principally owned by
Americans to close down entirely
thus causing many idle men.
The half dozen other mills are
running only at half time, as their
yards are filled with lumber for
which there is no demand. 1t may
b. stated that the lumber mill at
Mosquito harbor shipped to New York
by direct steamer last year 10000
600 feet Of lumber and shingles. The
copper mines at Mount Sicker are
also closed. The city of Victoria has
endeavored to assist in giving work
TO laborers, by making improvements
not heretofore contemplated.
Railway Work.
The principal industry on Van
couver Island is coal mining. Last
winter there was a shortage of coal
all over the Pacific coast, and the
fuel was scarce. even here in Victoria
only 40 miles from apparently mex
haustivle mines, All extra men pos
sible to secure were engaged, but
miners were scarce, and those at
work were discontented, being paid
wages agreed to when prices were
lower
The limit of the agreement as to
wages paid at Nanaimo mines, on this
island by fuel company composed
almost entirely of Americans, eN-
pired on October l last The wage
schedule then came up for revision,
and II was some weeks before the
scale was adjusted satisfactorily. At
that time the company had contracts
for the delivery of large shipments
of coal at San Francisco, and fear
ing the outcome of the arbitration
with the men, to protect themselves
made arrangements for certain
amount of Australian coal TO be de-
livered at San Francisco on the COM
panys account. With the reaction
of the last few months and the mild
winter the demand for coal has fall
en- off. The fuel company is still
bound by its Australian engagements,
and the result is that the San Fran
cisco market, which was formerly
supplied by coal from Vancouver
Island mines, is supplied by coal
mined in the Antipodes, and on jan
uary II. $50 men were laid off at
the Nanaimo mines. The company
announces that the length of time the
mines will lie idle depends altogeth-
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-03-03

er on the revival of business in the
San Francisco market.
The closing of these mines and
consequent large addition to the num-
Der of idle men on this island was
brought up in the local parliament
on January II, when the premier
announced that the Canadian Pa
cific railway, who now have over 200
men employed building an extension
OF the Esquimalt and Nanaimo rail-
way from Wellington to Alberni, via
Nanoose Bay, would put an addition
al 500 men to work. the contract for
grading IL miles having already been
let. This will relieve conditions
somewhat.
