SURVEYING SOUTH
OF QUINCY

After a number of the surround
ing towns have had their fling at re-
porting work done by railroads, both
surveying and construction, it has at
last come Quincy's turn to do little
reporting in that line.
A company of a dozen men and
two women in a surveying crew has
been stationed at Quincy this week
and are surveying a feeder from the
south country for the Great North
ern railroad.
They are surveying from Quincy
southeast around the southern end
of Moses lake, where they will meet
their complement of surveyors who
are surveying on the same feeder
from Odessa to the same point, thus
making the proposed road an arc OF
a circle.
The action of the Great Northern
has no doubt been instigated by the
proposed line of railroad to be run
from Adrian south through the Moses
lake country, presumably by the
Northern Pacific people. The new
road will tap a rich country. which
will develop more and more as time
passes.-Quincy Quill.

The city this year has collected
lover $500 in poll tax fees. and there
has been but little opposition to the
collection of this fee. Mr. Simmons
and few others have sought to
evade payment but the city officials
are just as insistent upon its collec-
ton, and If the suit against Mr.. Sim
mons is successful in the courts, suits
against all the others who have re-
fused to pay their taxes will be COM
menced.
Mr. Simmons was served with
copy of the complaint yesterday and
it is said was very bitter in condem-
nation of those who instituted the
suit. The case will come up in the
justice court on June 8, and it is
likely that the case will go into the
superior court. Judge Grimshaw, be-
fore whom the case will likely be
tried, was the attorney of the city of
Wenatchee who drafted the poll tax
ordinance
The matter Of authority of cities
for passing ordinance providing for
the collection of a poll tax has been
one that has caused a great deal of
contention in the various cities of the
state, it being claimed by some that
inasmuch as the taxes were to be
paid by male citizens only that the
law was in violation of the state con-
stitution. The cases, however, which
have gone into the supreme court and
where the ordinance of the cities were
properly drawn has been decided il
favor of the collection of the poll tax.
One of the best known cases in
this state which is decided by most
citizens is that of the state of Wash
ington VS.. G. W. Ide, Jefferson coun-
ty Judge Anders wrote the opinion
and in his opinion says there is no
violation of the provision of the state
constitution and says that it is clearly
within the province of the cities to
make local improvement by special as
sessment or by special taxation.

RAILROAD T|E-UP
MYST|F|ES
SUCCESS OF A FEW FIREMEN IN
STOPPING TRAFFIC IN WIDE
AREA, is PROBLEM-RACE
PROBLEM CAUSE OF TROUBLE.

Atlanta, Ca, May Elbow less
than 100 striking Georgia railway
firemen were able to stop virtually
all trains in a territory ITO miles
long and from 25 to 100 miles wide
was the knotty problem into which
United States Commissioner of Labor
Neill plunged after long conference
with General Manager Scott of the
Georgia railroad.
The officials of the road were in
almost continual conference, and 1t
was reported that some directors
strongly favored Governor Smiths
proposition for each side to select
three Georgians as arbitrator.
Handcars, automobiles and inter-
urban cars made little impression
upon the three thousand pounds of
delayed mails in the Atlanta post
office. Here and there in the strike
district a rural postmaster shouldered
a sack of outgoing mail and by hours
of hard riding and walking managed
to reach an unaffected railroad sta
ton.
The strike for the seniority of
white men over negroes entered its
ninth day today. Not a wheel was
moving on the entire length of the
road, and no definite hope of i'm
provement was held out until the ar
rival of Commissioner of Labor Neill.
The complete tie-up of the railroad
has one unusual aspect. 1t is not
due to any serious acts of violence,
but the uncompromising ultimatum
from several communities through
which the road passes that trains will
not be allowed to pass carrying ne
groes or strike-breaking firemen. So
serious has been the announcement
of such intentions that the possible
outcome of attempting to force trains
to run is a serious problem.

|RR|GAT|NG FROM
A WELL.

Working along the lines of irriga-
ton from a well, B. Heb, of the firm
of Heb e Schatz, whose homestead
joins the city limits on the south,
had the Banko-Zimmerman hardware
firm install him a new power pump
for his we'll and four-horsepower
gasoline engine this week. Con-
Meeting the pumping outfit Mr.. Heb
has a 1S6-barrel tank as a reservoir,
which stands on a twenty-foot tower
about thirty feet from the we'll
Mr.. Heb will first irrigate his
orchard tract Of five acres and will
later extend operations over10 acres
of garden patch. the whole fifteen
acres laying in one tract and being
ideal for irrigating. as the we'll and
tank are on the highest elevation OF
the land, making it a natural gravity
system.
With a sixteen-inch stroke, thirty.
two to the minute, the engine now
raises about 1000 gallons Of water
per minute. throwing a steady stream
through the two-inch pipe which Is
connected onto it. The well is 355
feet deep with $50 feet of water and
the pumping so far has not material
ly lessened the supply. The cost o.
pumping per day of ten hours will
be about IS cents.
All in all, Mr.. Heb has a splendid
outfit and a good place to irrigate
and is able, with judicious handling
of the water, to give a good accoun
for the future-Quincy Quill.

dead youth. After getting the informa-
ton that Kehl had relatives in Buffalo,

Barlow did not answer the message from
Hazen.
Unable to gain any information con-
corning the youths people. the body was
buried. Mr.. Anderson, the sender OF the
wire to Chief Barlow, says that he did
not receive even the courtesy of reply

Lincoln house here answered wire from
Hazen, but knew nothing Of the dead
youth. Chief Barlow did not vouchsafe
such information as he had.

LET'S NUISANCE REMAIN
City Board of Health Pays No At
tention to Taxpayers
Protests.

Though almost daily protests have been
made TO the city board of health regard
ing the dumping of debris in a lot on
West Temple street, just inside the city
limits at Tenth South street, nothing has
been done. w. NJ. Stalker of 1912 South
West Temple street and other residents
have complained time and again. The
taxpayers might just as well have gone
out and talked to the trees about the
nuisance.
The lot is only a few rods from the
house of Mr.. Stalker and is offensive be-
yOnd endurance. The board of health has
promised TO attend to the matter, but has
done nothing. Wagons loaded with refuse
deposit their loads at the very door OF
Mr.. Stalker. 1t was q dangerous breeding
place for flies during the summer.
mo, the garbage wagons of the city
do not dump there" said Mr.. Stalker, but
we get refuse Just as bad. We all pay
the city taxes and though there are many
homes grouped together there we have
never seen a garbage wagon. I don't be-
lieve l would know what one looks like. q"
