appreciate the good work done by the
firemen, as they had given up all hope
of saving the building or its contents
long before the fire boys arrived on
the scene.
The owners OF the laundry Informed
the Observer last night that the work
of repairing the damage would be
rushed with. all possible speed. to the
end that the Inconvenience to CUSTOM
ers might be reduced to the minimum.
They have made arrangements to send
any orders TO the Salem laundry while
the work Is going on A temporary
office will be opened in Ross Ellis
confectionery store, where persons de-
string work done may take their
laundry for shipment to Salem.
The steam laundry, under the able
management of Messrs Thompson &
Hiestand, has become one of Dallas
important business institutions, and
there is general rejoicing over the fact
that the loss by fire was nominal and
that these courteous and accommodate
ing gentlemen have decided to resume
business on a larger and better scale
than before.

Will REBUILD LAUNDRY
THOMPSON & HIESTAND PUR-
CHASE DAMAGED BUILDING.
Loss by Fire VIII Not Exceed $3.50
Dallas Firemen Do Excellent
Work.

Thompson & Hieistand, whose laun-
Friday afternoon, purchased the par
TALLY burned building from the trus-
tees of Dallas College yesterday and
will proceed at once to rebuild. The
contract for repairing the building
was awarded to c. L. Hubbard, who
promises to have the work sufficiently
advanced to enable the laundry to re-
sumo operations next week.
The lower story of the building was
not damaged by the fire, but the roof
and portion of the upper walls were
badly burned. AS the laundry has
never occupied more than the ground
floor, the burned upstairs will now be
cut away and the building made one
story high.
The fire which caused the damage
occurred shortly after one o'clock last
Friday afternoon, and is supposed to
have originated from a spark from
the smokestack. The roof was bIaz-
ing tiercely when the fire was first dis
covered, and by the time an alarm
could be turned in, the entire upper
story was ablaze. Owing to the great
distance from the firemen's headquar-
ters, and the long lines of hose it was
found necessary to lay, the laundry
was mass of roaring flames by the
time the water was turned on and it
seemed to be the opinion of all that
the big building was doomed to de-
The firemen went at their
task with a will, however, and after
20 minutes of hard fighting the flames
were gotten under control
Damage to Machinery Small.
The only damage done to the ex-
pensive machinery in the laundry was
by the water The owners say
their loss will not exceed $1OO.
All of the clothing and other laun-
dry in the building was carried out by
the employees before the heat became
too great to drive them from the
building, and the customers of the
will lose nothing
The damage to the building does not
exceed $3.50, and as all of the upper
story will be torn away in converting
he structure into a one-story building,
This loss is not worth taking into ac-
count. No insurance was carried
either by the college or by the owners

VOTERS SLOW TO REGISTER
County Clerk viii Keep Office Open
on Saturday Evenings.


With only IA days remaining in
which to register for the primary cleo
ton, less than one-half of the voters
of Polk County have registered.
The number of voters in Polk Coun-
ty is approximately 5000. Up to the
close of office hours last night, only
400 voters had registered. 1t will
therefore be seen that if all register
between now and September IA, the
names will have to come in at the rate
of 100 a day.
County Clerk Smith desires to in
form the voters that his office will be
open every Saturday night from $50
to 8 O'Clock, until the registration
books close in order that working
men may have an opportunity to reg
lister.

There is only one difference. and that is that there will not be any taximeter inside 10 tell the passenger how much he owes the cabby. The reason for this is obvious. Phoenix has not yet become d city of magnificent distances and but one fare-fiftv cents-will be charged to all points within the limits of the city. When Phoenix spreads over little more territory and is bounded by Camel Back on the north and the Salt River mountains on the south. then taximeter will be placed inside the cab.

 The car will stand at the Club sta bles and will also meet the trains. It cost MT. Walker about $2.500. In re- gard to the new venture he said yes terday:
