Gee. The hearings will probably
be resumed in Cleveland, o.
A summing up of the evidence
taken in Spokane will show that
the government land office, II it is
prone to make trouble for the
claimants, can defeat the issuance
of the patents or delay the matter
indefinitely. The evidence of joint
development and action in the mat
ter shows that if there was no I'M
derstanding or collision there ex-
listed some sort Of partnership ar
rangement by which all of the de-
velopment work and other expense
were paid out of common fund.
The entrymen, however, swear
that prior to receiving their GER
tificates of payment from the gov
eminent that they had no under
standing or agreement of any kind
and that whatever developed in the
way of negotiations looking to joint
action was after that date, which is
permissible. 1t is believed that the
land office will give the entrymen
the benfit of the doubt and that on
this broad assumption majority

RUN LINE
To THE
BIG BEND

From we'll authenticated sources
it is learned today that the Inland
Empire system will proceed in 1910
with the construction program for
the line to the Big Bend mapped
out over year ago.
Not much has been said about
this line in the past year, and the
report that Jay P. Graves had sold
out to Jim Hill gave rise to the be-
lief that no more extensions of the
Graves system would be made.
Real estate men report that
many of the Graves options on
right of way for the Big Bend line
that were about to expire have re-
Gently been closed up for the cash.
which is taken to mean that the
Big Bend line is to be built.
The Big Bend line will run from
Spokane to the junction of the Spo-
kane and the Columbia rivers, a
distance of over 10 miles. 1t will
be built on the plan of steam road
construction, the same as the 9th
er Graves interurban lines.

COPS EXCITING CHASE

"E-e1ah! "a sign of indignation)

E-e-ah! (some more indignation)

This is about all the explanation
that can be extracted from either
Nick Wuckobrock or Steve Saveck,
Austrians, arrested as suspicious
characters by Officer Berto early
this morning after a lively chase
that all but winded the, corpulent

The Cunningham entrymen are

kind. Had they been poor men

the manner followed in the coal

that they would have long ago lost

38c Butter This Week

Much interest has been aroused
in Spokane butter prices. Two
weeks ago the price of butter went
to Acc and soc per pound. The Car
lotta Coffee Co., S173 Howard

decided not to raise their butter
prices Immediately, but to gradu-
ally raise. Last week they quoted
35c and announced that their prices
would raise this week to CSC. In
a typographical erro of Mondays
Press a 35c price was made, but
the price for this week is really
CSC per pound, as they quote it in
their ad today. Which is still a
shade lower than the average.
