POOR WORK FORCES A
RE-SURVEY OF RESERVATION

TEKOA, July 13.-About one
third of the Occur d'Alene reserya-
walton, consisting of timber land
in the eastern part, will have to
be re-surveyed, as the previous
survey has been found to be in
accurate and unsatisfactory. The
boundary and section lines were
run by three different parties of
engineers, and one of these is said
to have done such poor work that
it would not stand the test of the
government inspector. The new
survey will in no wise affect the
lands of the Indians, who have all
received their allotments, nor de-
lay the opening, registration for
which will begin July ID, at Occur
d'Alene City. c. G. Pidgeon is
here now with a party of govern
ment surveyors ready to begin
work at once.

Contractors Aroused
Over Sewer Award

Joe Wells, operating as the
Wells Construction Co., secured
the contract today for the build
ing of the big South End storm
sewer on Park avenue and other
streets for $1,000 against a
field of four other bidders.
His bid was the lowest, and he
was therefore given the job. The
award, however, caused some
heated discussion on the part of
other contractors, and an open
ruction is likely to result.
At caucus of the contractors
outside the office of Commission
er McGregor this morning charges
were openly made that Wells was
taking city jobs below a figure
that is adequate to cover the cost
and then 'skinning" the work,
and that he is allowed to do this
because he is friend of Mayor
Linck.
You can do anything IL you
just take the mayor out buggy
riding" said one contractor.
Wells, 1t was charged, had not
lived up to the specifications at
all in the erection of the culvert
under Pacific avenue.
Where the specifications CALI

. he put in II Inch old scrap-iron

The girl and dog pose in series

different and superior to the usual

derful juggling act. Beautifully
painted Indian clubs are whirled
about in such confusion that II

CARDINAL ANDRIEU OF BORDEAUX.

AS a matter of fact, the Catholic
press of the whole of Europe Is
talking the case over.
The pope himself considers the
action of the French government
as a new proof of an indisposi-
tion toward the church, and Is
greatly displeased. He sees in 1t
an obstacle to the renewal of any
friendly relations which seemed
slowly. very slowly, getting under
way. II is reply, the pope has
said, to the French bishops who
still believe possible modus VI
vendi between the French govern
ment and Rome. 1t is known also
that the pope has addressed a let
ter of congratulation to Cardinal
Andrieu, encouraging him to wres-
tie to the end for the rights of
the church.
