the cement plant at Sullivan creek can

Postmaster Towle has entered a strong
protest against the manner in which the
Great Northern fast mail train is oper-
ated through here. About half the time
the train goes through so fast that the
depot boys are unable to throw the mail
from this point aboard. AS No. 3 no
longer carries mail the sacks are de
tained here more than II hours, going
west on No. the next morning. Mr..
Towle has asked that crane for deliv-
ering mail to the train be erected at the
depot. AS Newport is the distributing
point for mail from 81 offices in this Sec
ton, the request is reasonable and will
doubtless be needed by the postal au-
thOrities.
The running time of all Great North
ern passenger trains, with the exception
of the "Mail Limited" will be changed

STREET GRADING COMPLETED
$4,000 Expenditure a Credia
To the Town.
Shows Enterprise of Our Citizens

Fife Brothers, of Spokane, who had
the contract for grading streets in New
port. concluded their labors Tuesday,
and have returned their outfit to Spo-
kane. The work is in such shape that the
street committee of the council is about
ready to recommend acceptance of the
lob, except for few minor places that
need attention.
The streets graded include the follow
ing: Extension of Fourth street grade
to the city limits, Scott avenue, from l..
& w. N. right-ofway to First street !;
Warren avenue. I. & W. N. right-of-way
to First street; Spokane avenue, |. &
w. N. right-of-way to city limits: Third
street. city limits to Union avenue.
The work includes curb and gutter and
parking strips on all streets lin the resi-
Dental district. In most cases a fiye-
foot sidewalk is provided, with five
foot parking strip on each side of the
walk.
The amount of Fife Bros contract
was approximately $4,000, which called
for grading, curb and gutter. In addi-
dition several thousand dollars will be
expended by the property owners for
sidewalking, making total improve
ment cost which is a noteworthy evil
dence of public spirit and enterprise on
the part of our citizens in working for
the Improvement and beautifying of the
town.
As is usual with works of this :harac-
ter there was considerable dissatisfac-
ton expressed as the work progressed,
but now that it is completed and the
abutting properties are improved to
make them correspond with the grade,
there is general satisfaction over the re-
suits. With completion of the work of
sidewalking and the maintenance of the
parking strips, the graded district will
present fine appearance, which will
lead to continuation OF the work about
town. The council is very we'll pleased
with the work of the contractors, with
whom there has been no friction of any
kind. For the members of the council

NEW SCHEDULE NOVEMBER
Two Trains Daily Between Spo
kane and lone.
Tracklaying is Again in Progress.

The new schedule of the Idaho q
Washington Northern Railroad, to be-
come effective Nov. l, with the compile
ton of the extension to lone. is as fol-
lows: Train No. will leaye Spokane
at 80 q. m., arrive at Newport at $50
and lone at II: 40. No. 104 will leave
Spokane at $40 p. m, arrive Newport

are cut off by the new schedule. All
trains will be daily and make all regular
and flag stops as heretofore.
Nos. and will carry mail from Spo
kane to all points on the line. The
baggage cars are being refitted with mail
compartments and railway mail service
will be installed. At present only pouch
mail is carried. This will give the down
river country daily mail service to all
points, a great improvement over the
service that has been given that section
in the past.
The new schedule will give people re-
siding down river an opportunity to have
nearly full day in Newport for the
transaction of business and get back to
their homes the same day. This has
been an impossibillty heretofore and
the change cannot fail to be of great
benefit to Newport business interests.
The LAYING of steel on the lone exten-
sion of the I. & w. N, which had been
held up by the non-arrival of material ,
was resumed Wednesday. Material
sufficient to reach lone is now on hand
and the work will 60 forward without
further interruption. 1t is reported that
the road will be extended as far as Elk

sion Tuesday evening. Considerable
routine business was transacted. but no

R. S. Anderson presented petition
to the council relative to electric wiring

the latter company be required to ele-
vate its lines ten feet above the wires of

tion was laid over for further action if
necessary, in case the two companies
could not arrive at an agreement in the
matter.
Mr.. Anderson also presented petition
asking the council for an extension of

Notifies G. N. TO Build

Olympia, Wash, Oct. 19.-The Wash
ington railroad commission today sum-
marily denied a petition of the Great
Northern on the claim that the road has
deliberately ignored and neglected or
ders of the commission.
The Great Northern filed petition
asking more time to comply with the
commissions orders for new depots,
sidetracks, ETC., claiming it was unable
to secure surveyors and materials within
the time specified.
In addition to denying the petition
the commission served notice upon the
road that it might direct the attorney
general to begin action to force the Hill
line to pay many thousands of dollars
penalty which the law provides tor fail
ure to comply with the orders.
The commission, however, takes the
position that the public wants the ad
ditlonal station facilities rather than
to fine the road, and announces that if
the company, in good faith, promptly
constructs 13 new stations, remodels and
enlarges six depots and freight houses
and constructs the many side and in
dustry tracks and other improvements
covered by the original orders no prose-
cution may result. Otherwise the COM
mission may bring suit for the penalty
for each day and for each improvement,
which would run into thousands of dol
lars.
In line with the above is letter re-
ceived from Commissioner Lawrence by
J. R. Patterson. who wrote to the COM
mission regarding the matter of the new
depot ordered at Newport. Mr.. Law
renee stated in the letter that new de-
pots and various Improvements had been
ordered by the commission at so points
points on the Great Northern in this
state. That the company had appealed
from IL of these orders. However, no
appeal had been made from the order
calling for new depot and other i'm
provements at Newport.
L. E. Miller, of Dexterville, Wis, has
bought the Appel ranch of 200 acres liz
the Calispel valley. The sale was made
through G. HI. Finley.

Was a Friend Of the Northwest

In the city of Chicago on Sunday,
October II, occurred the death of the
man who, more than any other, has
worked to induce emigration to the Pa
cifc Northwest-Max Bass, general i'm
migration agent of the Great Northern
Railroad. Mr.. Bass has been in the
employ of the road for more than 20
years.
During the period of his service with
the company Mr.. Bass was the means of
inducing many to come west and settle
along the lines of the company. and
those who met him and took his advice
have occasion to remember with graft
tude the firm faith he had in the coun-
try and his ability to imbue others with
a like faith. The Northwest has lost a
staunch friend and booster in the death
of this man.

County Unit to Vote Tuesday
November 9th.
Newport Saloon Case Postponed

Inc Stevens county unit. comprising
the territory outside the incorporated
towns, Will vote on the question of "no
license for liquor traffic" on Tuesday,
Nov. 9. According to all reports the
county unit will go dry, as the ranchers
generally do not favor the idea of having
saloons In the country and in the smaller
towns, where there can be no municipal
regulation of the traffic. A committee
has been named from each precinct to
see that the vote is gotten out and to
work for local option.
Voters residing in precincts in which
incorporated towns are located are re-
quired to register. The registration
books for Newport precinct are in the
hands of Edward Britton. The books
will close Oct. 80, ten DAYS before the
election.
The case of the local saloons against
the town, testing the validity of the local
option election held in Newport Sept. 7,
has again been postponed and will be
heard at Colville next Monday, Oct. 25.
Cannon q Lee represent the town in the
case and Jessepn & Grinstead, of Col
vile, appear for the saloon men.
Over in Bonner county, Idaho, there
will be no election called until after Jan.
