more than a year ago, has made
the following proposition to the
city: The club will purchase a
lot in suitable location, erect a
library building to cost $125O
and deed the property, together
with the library of over 800
volumes, over to the village on
condition that the village is to
pay for half the cost of the build
ing. The library will then be
made a public one and the club
further agrees to furnish the
building, provide librarian and
see that the library is kept up in
shape. That this is an eXcep-
tionally worthy offer all will
agree and it should meet with no
opposition. The council will also
be able to meet in the library
and the saving of $6 per month
rent will pay a good rate of in
terest on the money invested.
If the bond carries, and we
can see no reason why it should
not, work on the streets can be
started by the middle of the
summer, and, with the water
company busy on their system
and the town busy on street
work, things will assume very
prosperous aspect here.

ENGINEER
FINISHES WORK
Mr.. Roberts Departed Wednesday
After Locating Sites for the
CITY Well and ReservOir--WOrk
Now Soon be Started.

! Engineer Roberts arrived in
the city last Friday from Pull
man, Wash, and on Saturday
took up the work of locating the
well and reservoir sites for the
local water system. After care
fully engineering the ground to
be served he decided that the
reservoir had best be located on
the hill near the Kaufman farm
Just southwest of town and
located the place for drilling the
we'll near the creek just west of
the brewery. Mr.. Roberts re-
turned home Wednesday and
will at once make map for the
water company showing the plan
of the system, size of mains on
different streets, location of
hydrants and other necessary
features.
!. It is the intention of the water
company to have work commenc-
ed on the we'll at once in order to
ascertain whether or not a
sufficient supply of water can
be secured at that point. With
the selection of the reservoir site
as above stated it was decided
that stand pipe would be un-
necessary as pressure enough
can be secured from an ordinary
reservoir. Work on the reser-
voir will perhaps be commenced
in few weeks. The reservoir
will be dug into the ground and
lined with the best Portland
cement, tight roof being built
over it when completed.
The pipe and machinery fol
the water system will not be
secured until it can be delivered
here by the railroad but as soor
as it can be laid down here the
work of installing it will be
rushed with all possible speed
The mains will be laid circulat
ing as much as possible, with
six and eight inch mains on the
principal streets. The city will
no doubt put in between 20 anC
80 hydrants around , town fo.
fire fighting purposes and whel
the system is in operation
Cottonwood will be as wei
supplied with water as any tow
of it's size in the state. 1t i
possible the system may b
completed yet this year.

WILL VOTE FOR BONDING TOWN.

The city council met in regular
session Monday night and after
some discussion adjourned until
Wednesday night in order to re-
ceive a little necessary legal in
formation. On Wednesday eve
ming the board took up the petit
ton asking that an election be
called for the purpose of voting
a bond to raise money for public
improvements and finally decid-
ed to call an election to vote
bonds to the amount of $1,000.
AS soon as the necessary lega
formalities can be gone through
with the election will take place,
probably late next month OF
early in June.
The board has not specified as
yet how the money is to bt
used but it is understood thar
the greater part of it will be ex
pended in putting Main stree
and part of King street up tt
grade. A certain sum will alsC
probably be used to purchase
tract of land for a city park ant
about $500 will be used TO
library purposes.
In connection with the latte

slight explanation that all of ou
citizens may understand tn
matter thoroughly. The librar

$4,000 FOR PERCHERON STALLION

At Grangeville Wednesday oc-
Cured the sale in which a draft
horse brought the largest sum of
money ever paid for a draft horse
in the United States. w. R.
Clemans Of the firm of Clemans
& Lloyd sold to a company of ten
men at GrangeviIle a mammoth
percheron stallion for the sum of
$4,000.
The men who purchased the
horse are all prominent stock
men of Camas Prairie and after
the sale they formed what is
known as the Grangeville Breed
ers' Association.
The horse sold has been in
Moscow for some time and by all
who have seen him he is said to
be the finest horse ever seen in
the northwest. He is a dark
brown, five years old and weighs
1850 pounds. He stands 18 hands
and l 1-2 inches in height. In
every particular he is pronounced
to be a perfect horse. At every
fair in which he has been entered
he has taken first prize for horses
of his class. Moscow Mirror.

CREAM COMPANIES WANT THIS FIELD.

From present indications the
farmers of the west side of the
prairie, and Of this immediate
vicinity especially, are soon to
have an entire new avenue of
trade open up for them and one
from which they will be able to
reap material profit not hereto
fore realized We refer to the
creamery business, which prom
ises to develop rapidly in this
section as soon as the cars reach
us. Even this early the field is
being developed and representa-
tives of both the Hazelwood
Creamery, of Spokane, and the
Commercial Cream Co., of Lewis
ron, are in the field.
Mr.. Madison, of the Hazelwood
company, has been talking cream
to our farmers for the past three
weeks and already has a large
territory contracted for in the
Westlake vicinity, at which point
he received the first shipment of
cream on Tuesday of this week.
He has also been working the
Cottonwood territory pretty
thoroughly and hopes to soon be
able to establish a permanent
receiving station here and per-
haps others at nearby points.
L. B. Coble, of the Commercial
Cream Co., arrived here last
week and informed us that his
company would enter this field
and establish a station at this
point in the near future.
The establishing of stations
here by the companies means
more to the farmers, perhaps,
than many of them suppose. 1t
will provide them with a ready
market for their cream at all
seasons of the year, whereas
heretofore during the summer
season practically no butter could
be sold here to local dealers.
By using separators the farmers
can extract the butter fat at
home and sell it to the dealers at
better than zoe a pound and at
the same time have all the milk
left to feed the calves and hogs
on the farm. Then, too, the
cattle will be improved to meet
the requirements and the poor
mixers will no longer be kept on
the farm. Good milk cows will
pay their way from the cream
sold and at the same time raise
good calves each year for the
market.
Another item not to be over
looked is the cream check coming
in each month. 1t may moi
amount to very much at first
but it will grow in size as the
herd is improved and will go g
long way to pay the running
expenses of the farm and bring
farming into the class of profit
able occupations. We have long
been a believer in diversified
farming and are glad to SEE
the creamery business develop
here as it is one of the bes
: markets the farmer has, tending
, to put everyone who patronize'
it in position to pay cash as he
goes and become virtually in
dependent.

SWEDISH LUTHERANS.
Their Fourth Annual Entertainment
Largely Attended.

The fourth annual entertainment
given by the male members of the
Swedish Lutheran church on Cherry
street last night was largely attend
ed. The programme included: Music
by the National band; remarks ON the
subject Man." by John c. Hyland;
songs by the Swedish Glee club, under
the leadership of Charles G. Carlson.
The pastor of the church, the Rev A.
]. Stenwall, gave an informal talk on
Women" reading chapter OF King
Soloman's on that subject and filling
in between the verses highly inter-
esting and humorous remarks about
the conditions then and now as re-
CARDS women. He likened the seven
years of plenty in Egypt to the twelve
years of great prosperity We have eX-
perienced now. but doubted if people
to-day We're so we'll prepared for the
lean time now at hand. He also
noted the marked contrast between
the strong healthy women of Sweden
and the American city women. In
closing he suggested that the wise
kings advise to praise highly ones
wives would prove highly beneficial
to all concerned. The pastors talk
was heartily applauded.
A violin solo by n. p. Swenson and
recitation by Frank Swanson closed
the programme. This was followed
by refreshments and a social hour.
1t was suggested to the women that
as the men We're in this instance do
ing their work, it was their part to
highly praise the husbands, in view
of the pastors remarks. About $25
was realized from the affair and this
goes directly into the church treas
ury.

WIDOW HOWARD NOT
ENTITLED TO ESTATE
Attorneys Claim That Property
Rights Were Settled When
COupIe Separated

Mrs Emma Shafter Howard, widow
OF Charles Webb Howard, ex-president
OF the Spring Valley water company,
endeavored in Judge Cofey'ss court yes
terday to find out what Howard did
with his fortune before his death to
reduce il TO $40 and a gold watch,
which was all she, administrator,
found in the estate. J. NJ Duke. secre-
tary Of the Howard investment COM
pany, 10 which Howard is believed to
have transferred practically everything
he owned, was in court under subpoena,
but his testimony was not taken, as
A. =. Shaw, attorney for the invest
ment company. intimated that he in
tended applying to the supreme court
for a writ prohibiting the superior
court from investigating the affairs of
the company. Over the protest OF J.
G. McKinstry. attorney for Mrs. How
ard. Judge Coffey thereupon put the
matter over until Thursday next.
In an answer fled yesterday the in
Vestment company denied that at the
time Of his death Howard was in pos
session or control OF any property other
than $40 and a watch. Mrs. Howard,
the answer asserts. has no claim upon
any OF the property transferred to the
Investment company by her husband
because al the time of their separation
IN 1890 they made a complete settle
ment Of property rights, and because
everything Howard conveyed 10 the in
vestment company was his separate
DroDerty.
