LEWISTON, March Word re
ceived from Asotin yesterday shows
that the surveying crew of the Idaho,
Washington & Oregon railway COM
pany started the survey for the Aso-
tin-Lewiston section Of the electric line
system yesterday morning, under the
direction of Engineer Frank Mexican,
and that when the days work was
concluded last evening three miles of
preliminary had been run.
The survey was started on the Ida
no side below the bridge site and when
the mouth of Tammany was reached
the line is about 60 feet above the
bottom of the gulch. The line is to fol-
low along the south side Of the gulch
and it is understood a crossing to the
north side will be made two or two
and one-half miles from the mouth of
the hollow at a point where a con.
venient grade can be found for reach
ing Lewiston orchards. AS viewed out
for the preliminary survey the line in

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing it's work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-
monials.

CEMENT TAKES

WAR BETWEEN RIVAL COMPA-
MES MAKES BUILDING MA
TERlAL CHEAP.

SEATTLE, March Cement is
cheaper today than it has been for
several years, largely owing to the
continuance of the price war between
the California cement companies and
the Washington Portland Cement
company, with headquarters in Seattle,
which handles the Ivcal product.
This fight has so unsettled the mar
ket that it is difficult to say just what
the figures are on the various pro-
ducts, but the tendency has been down.
ward for months. 1t is the opinion of
some of the prominent dealers, who
unwilling to be quoted for publication
that the end of the long fight is in
sight, for the reason, as they say, that
the bottom has about been reached and
that any further price reductions on
the part of the local and California
concerns would leave them furnishing
cement at less than costa condition
that could not long continue.
Local Selling Near 81.
The price of the local and California
products has been forced down until
each is quoted at 50 per barrel, with
five cents extra for the four sacks in
which the "baller' of cement is packed,
making total of $3.50 per barrel.
Eastern cement the grades made in
Kansas and the middle west, also are
suffering as a result Of the slashing by
the western concerns. These grades
are sold at $3.50 to $2.75 per barrel,
depending on their standing for relia-
bility. Owing to their distance from
this market and the heavy freight
to nearly $3.50 per barrel
against them, these eastern cements
are not able to enter into a COMPETE
ton that means a cut below $2.25.
and even that figure loses them money
on a basis Of five cents per barrel at
the factory.

ident of winning the game and were
much surprised to find such a
strong team in the i~ntermountain
country. The visitors defeated all the
best teams ON the coast and looked for
clear sailing here. Swan for the Wis
itors threw ten field baskets in the
first half, but in the second half he
was guarded by Horslngton and could
only throw one. The game was at
tended by over 500 people and as
many more were turned away.
The following lineup of the Alaska
team was given by the Tribune:
Keown, left forward; Swan, right for
ward; Mcclure, center; Lomen, left
