COMMITTEE CONFERRIN
WITH G. N. OFFICIALS.

1t was just six weeks ago today
that Contractor John Mohr started
his teams and turned the first dirt on
the grade for the Waterville railway
line. For nearly week at the start
only few teams were at work on &C
count of the scrapers not arriving,
and yet the work is practically fin
ished, which shows that Mr.. MOhr
understands his business.
On Monday it showed and as there
was very little to do to finish up he
let the men at camp No. / go, advis-
ing us that the grade would be ready
for the ties and rails by today
(Thusday) as far as his work was
concerned He stated, however, that
the bridges would probably delay
this work some
Mr.. Mohr has rushed the work of
grading to its fullest extent, urged
on by Chief Engineer Rogers, who,
John says, may be all right for the
people who have their money invest
ed, but he is no good for the con-
tractor, as he wants too much for
the money.
1t has been the aim of Mr.. Rogers
to get this work finished just as soon
as possible; at the least cost, and he
of course has not been very lenient
with those at work, but as he has
saved money for the people wherever
it was possible and Mr.. Mohr says,
has caused him to lose, but John
takes it good naturally, and is
pleased to know that he has been
able to build a grade so quickly and
SO cheaply for the people.

If THE SPOKANE MAN APPEARS

next year he will make one of his
principal issues the Pinchot-Ballin-
ger controversy, taking the side of
Pinchot, states a Seattle report. 1t
is announced on authority of Poin-
dexter's west side friends that the
Spokane congressman plans to go in
to the fight alleging mismanagement
on Ballinger's part of both the for
estry reserves and the power sites in

Forester Clifford Pinchot has prom
Used repeatedly to restore these lands
to the state, but there has always
been brought up some new issue that
prevented final consummation of
the deal.
OkanOgan Lost the Most.
According to the latest report from
the state land commission there are
1906, 500 acres of land in this state
held within the forestry reserves. Of
this amount 5OS,913.4O acres are
common school and indemnity lands,
and 53.S53.01 acres are granted and
selected lands embraced within for
est reserves.
OF the % counties in this state af-
fected by the six forest reserves in
this state, Okanogan is the principal
sufferer. having 1,9S5,6S0 acres
withdrawn. while Chean is cut off
from the enjoyment of 1,594,4OO
acres. Skamania has nearly 1,000,-
600 acres withdrawn, while What
com heads the list of west side coun-
ties with 94O,96O acres withdrawn
from settlement.
If Ross fails and Poiniexter goes
on the stump to advocate a continu-
ance of the Pinchot policies, Balm
ger will have Ross behind him in one
of the prettiest fights of the year.
