Report of w: H. Slime Shows
Excellent Conditions
in the Offices.
ONLY ONE SHORTAGE
NOW ON THE BOOKS
Small Deficits on Several
Books Have Been Made
Square Long Ago.

Covering a period from July 1, 1903,
to December 81, 1908, the report of
w. II. Stine, who has been exporting
the county books for the past three
months, was handed in this morning
and shows that during this time the
management of the county affairs has
been conducted under the most able
administration.
Commencing with County Auditor
w. j. Honeycutt, the report shows
that during his first term of office, the
sum of 81 was not accounted for.
This amount was paid last April by
Mr. Honeycutt.
In looking over the books of the
present auditor, J. n. McCaw, a
shortage of 1925 was recorded, which
has since been deposited. The amount
in this case is merely nominal and is
the result of trifing fees which it was
almost impossible to keep track of.
A shortage of $S.70 is recorded
against A A. Hauerbach, when he was
county clerk and this sum is still on
the debit side of the books.
Upon filing the report of Dorsey M.
Hill as county clerk, a shortage of
$40 was recorded, this amount hav-
ing since been made UP.
1t was found that in the justice
court, when ]. j. Huffman was acting
in the capacity of justice of the peace,
a large number Of civil cases were
filed but not docketed Upon advise
ment of the county attorney, however,
the sum of s47S.70 was accepted in
settlement of this shortage.
Goodwin had not accounted for S225,
While acting as constable, l.. C.
cumbent. failed to debit himself for
fees amounting to $2.2O.
According to the report, it was
shown that Charles Painter, While
sheriff of this county, had failed to
account for $1,000, but as there was
due him the sum Of $14.50, remand
er of $3.50 was still owing him.
Although failing to account for
$2455, James Haviland, as sheriff, mas
due him s2SO5 the sum of $3.50 hav-
ing been owed him by the county.
All fees chargeable to w. j. Honey
cutt. during his second term OF once
and collected by him during the term
covered by the report, have been ac-
counted for by him to the auditor
Errors in this case amounted to Sl4.1S
while he had due him s4.24. leaving
balance to the county of $1O54. THIS
amount has been paid.
1T can be said with perfect saIety
that no other county in the state mas
been conducted under such able man
agement and barring the few cierlcai
errors, the report is marvellous. IN
only one case has the deficiency no.
been made up and this amount Is sun
AGAINST the report of former Clerk
Hauerbach. being $50. OTHERWISE
the county has a clean slate.

NO WORD rs RECEIVED
ALONG THE AUTOS
LINE OF TRAVEL
Specials From Eastern Ore
gon Towns ALI Tell
Same Story.

Although expected that the Thomas
pathfinder car, which left New York
city some months ago, was due to ar
rive in Walia Walla some time today,
no trace of the machine can be gained
by telegraphic communication along
the proposed route and the latest news
that can be used with certainty Is that
the car was in Pocatella last Saturday.
Having started on it's journey too early
in the season, the drivers are under
going great difficulties owing to the
soft spots in the roads and because of
this are some days behind on their
schedule.
The route, as far as known at the
present time, is through Baker City,
La Grande, Elgin and finally over the
Toll gate road at the summit of the
Blue mountains and then into this
valley. If this does not seem practi-
cable, the car will be shipped to Pend
Teton, when the drivers will unload it
and proceed in this direction.
Clarence Hanford, who passed
through this city on his way from Sc
attic to meet the pathfinder, has just
returned to Seattle and has personally
mapped out the route from Seattle to
Granger. He predicts that it will ar
rive in Seattle next Wednesday.
Some hairbreadth escapes have been
experienced by the men in charge Of
the car since striking this section of
the country. At one place, they were
buried in the snow and were rescued
by a gang of section men, while in
another they were washed off the road
by a water-spout. From Twin Falls to
Boise. however, the roads are firm and
dry and good time will no doubt be
made.
Mr.. Hanford will arrive in this city
next Saturday and help it through the
Blue mountains. Men will be on hand
to break the road il necessary ard it
is expected that when the car arrives
in this state no more trouble will be
experienced. Although there may be
some slight trouble at Snoqualmie
pass on account of the snow, which
does not leave until about June 1, ar
rangements have been made for any
mishaps that may arise.

the intention of the incorporators to
construct a system of roads radiating

The incorporators of the company
state that they will begin work at once
and rush the proposed lines to an early
completion. Just where these lines are
to be run is not yet given oie by the
members of the company, who seem to
be very reticent regarding the future
operations of the new organization.

FIRE COMMITTEE OPENS
BIDS FOR AUTO TRUCK.
Gramm Logan Motor Company Makes
Best Bid for New Fire Fighting
Equipment.

Members of the fire committee of
the city council met this afternoon at
2 o'clock and opened bids for the COM
bination chemical and hose auto, which
had been called for by City Clerk Hart.
Four sets of figures were received the
representative of the Gramm- Logan
Motor company, Archie Henderson
having submitted the lowest estimate
in the sum of s4640. Through a mis-
understanding, however, he failed to
deposit with the clerk the certified
check for $500, as called for in the ad-
vertisement for bids. This may be
filed later, according to a decision of
the committee.
Following are the bids received:
Gramm- Logan Motor Company .$4640
Graham Rubber Co, Seattle -. 1850
Northwe stern Fire Apparatus Co.,
Spokane u. 5lUO
Inland Auto Co, Walla Walla -. 5000
The recommendations of the COM
mittee as to the action to be taken will
probably be incorporated in a report
to the city council at the next meet
ing.
