Grange Wants Voice in Expen-
diture Of Tax Money.

Mr.. John Rogers, of Olympia, Wash.
sends us copy of resolutions adopted
by the Four Mound Grange These
resolutions attack some of the unnec-
essary legislature supposed to be in
the interest of public roads and pub
lie schools, and are as follows:
Whereas, The taxes collected for
the maintenance and impro, ement OF
the public roads should be expended
on the roads in the locality where the
taxes are raised and
Whereas, People of the locality who
pay taxes for the improvement of the
public highways should have voice in
the expenditure of the money thus
raised and voice in choosing road
supervisor for their respective dis
tricts.
Therefore, be it resolved, That the
Legislative committee of the State
Grange be instructed to use all honor
able means to induce the legislature
of the State of Washington to repeal
the present road laws out of harmony
with this resolution and to enact a
law dividing the county into local
road districts and giving the qualified
electors of said local districts the
right of choosing a road supervisor
for their several respective districts
whose duty it shall be to see that the
road taxes shall be judiciously OK
pended for the purpose for which they
are levied and collected.

PROPERTY OWNERS
HAVE REBATE DUE
Laying of Additional Switch Track
on Fourteenth Avenue Makes
Company Pay for Paving.

The property owners along Four
teenth avenue from Thirty-sixth to
Thirty-eighth streets have a rebate
coming to them on the cost of the
paving of the avenue, because of the
fact that the street car company during
the past summer has extended it's
switch track there and made it double,
thereby making itself liable for the
cost of the paving of the added portion
of the street which 1t covers. City En-
gineer Wallace Treichler and the com
mittee of streets and alleys has ar
ranged a settlement with the company
by which the property owners will get
a rebate of S557.67 and the city a re-
bate of S151.23 which makes a total
of S70S.90. The amount coming to the
city is due from the street crossing
for which the city paid the bill of
paving.
The rebate represents IS per cent of
the initial cost, it being estimated that
the wear and tear on the pavement
for the last four years since 1t was
laid would amount to that percentage

COAL SITUATION Is
CAUSING ALARM HERE
Few Carloads That Reach the City
Today Are Grabbed Up by the
Dealers for Patrons.

The coal situation continues to be-
come more serious each day. Today
the last of the dealers to advance
the price 20 cents per ton did so.
The weather conditions at present are
anything but favorable for a reduc-
ton. The snow will make it more
difficult for the railroads to haul the
coal. Only a few carloads reached
the city today and it is expected that
they will be sold before evening. The
strike of the mine workers will I'M
doubtedly come about at the end Of
the agreement between the employees
and owners April 1. The factories
will begin to get in their stock of
coal soon after the first of the year.
The dealers here say it is certain
that the price of coal will not drop
before spring and it is very probable
that it will raise to higher point be-
fore the famine is over.

JAMES KINNEY 80
or CHRISTMAS DAY
Anniversary of Citizen Who Settled
Here in 1913, and Is Still in
the Harness.

James Kinney, 1906 Sixth avenue,
will receive a birthday IN his Christ
mas stocking. Tomorrow he will be
so years of age. having been born Dec.
%, 1929. Mr. Kinney settled in this
city in 1S4S and he has been here con.
tinuously since with the exception of
three years that he served his flag in
the war of the rebellion, having been
member Of Company A, 9Th Illinois
cavalry.
For about 20 years Mr.. Kinney was
coachman for the Negus and Harper
families. For the past 10 years he has
been conducting a hack line for the
conveyance of Rock Island arsenal en-
ployes to and from their work. Mr..
Kinney is a member of John Buford
post, G.. A. R., and is believed to be
the oldest living man affiliated with
that organization. He has been a sub.
scriber of The Argus since it was es,
tablished, never having missed an is
sue. Even during his service at the
front the paper was forwarded to him.
Mr. Kinney. since the death of his
wife, has been making his home with
his daughter. Mrs. Russell w. Barth.
His son is Policeman John Kinney.
Mr.. Kinney is hale and hearty and
feels as though he were good at least
for the rounding out of a century of
usefulness. His friends will extend
hearty congratulations on his S0th an
niveTsary tomorrow.

that they had acted without the con-
sent of a majority OF the congregation.
Rev. Mr.. Broyles believes that he sim
has the right to occupy the pulpit of
the church and he wants the court TO
enjoin Rev. Mr. burden from occupy
ing 1t. The bill also calls upon the
court to prevent Sandy Terry and VIII
liam and Boston Gordon from acting
in the part of trustees.
The court listened to the bill and
at its conclusion decided 20 take the
matter under advisement. No tenn
porary injunction was issued and the
status of the controversy will remain
unchanged until the application is
heard from again.

Max E. Ochs, though a resident Of

Mr. Ochs is the owner of the build
ing at the northeast corner Of Second
avenue and Eighteenth street He &C
quired 1t 10 years ago and has seen
1t treble in value in the interim.
Helps Property.
I'm for Rock Island strong" Mr..
Ochs said land am in favor of these
improvements that are being dis
cussed. Let's repave by all means.
If am hit on both sides of my prop
erty, all the better. 1 know what good
paving frontage does for business
property. l can't see how any citizen
can afford to attempt to block such
an improvement. You can't replace
the pavement any too quick to suit me.
If you are in doubt as to the value
of the post lights in the business
streets just take a trip to Davenport
some night. These lights ought to De
on both sides of Second avenue at
least from Fifteenth TO Twentieth
streets. The way to get them is to go
after them"
Sounds good coming from a resident
of another city. When an outsider
will join in supporting public improve
ments with the enthusiasm that Mr..
Ochs has shown It i'll becomes home
people to stand in the path of
