IS Sewer System.

Council met on Tuesday evening to
hear the report of the Engineers they
had employed and examined very care
fully the plans and specifications they
presented. Council adopted them and
asked for bids to be opened on May S,
when the contracts will be awarded, if
within the specified price $50, 600. The
plans show system taking in all parts
of the town. In the northwest part it
takes in the Matthew and Oshant cor
ners and all the streets and alleys in
that part of town. In the northeast it
runs from Shuts, Madden's and Wards
and includes all that part. 1t also
takes in all of the southern part from
the Stock and Reed places on east and
finally empties into sceptic tanks down
by Dead Mans Hollow near the Public
Park. In all the east and west later,
ais the pipes are run through the alleys
and as little as possible in the streets.
North and south it has to take In the
center of many streets. The system
will cost about $50, 900 of which $50, 600
will be issued in bonds and the balance
assessed against the lots along which
the sewer passes, about $40 for each
so foot lot. The bids will be opened
May 9Th and work will commence soon
thereafter and be completed this fall.
The plans bear the endorsement and
approval of the Engineer of the State
Board of Health of Kansas.

The Beaver base ball boys won an.
other victory over Liberal in the game
sunday afternoon, the score standing
| to IN Beavers favor Those who
witnessed the game say that it was q
good one and that the teams were
pretty evenly matched. The greatest
good feeling prevailed, large crowd
was in attendance and everybody en-
ioyed the game.
In the games with Couch, the Beav-
er Reds claimed the victory Saturday
by score of s to I. Sunday however,
Couch won back the honors at 8 To 5.
Considering the fact that the Beaver
boys had already played hard game
with Liberal and made a hard fight
with tlre which started during the game
we don't think much credit is due
Couch for their victory. We are sti |
of the opinion that Beaver can put il
all over any other team in this necks %
the woods under equal circumstances.

will be convinced of the feasibility OF
irrigation in western Oklahoma, and
for that reason | feel deep interest
in the subject.
81 shall later comply with your sug-
gestions and name 10 delegates at large
to represent 0klahma in your congress

In later letters. Governor Haskell
has reiterated his interest, and has sent

mated at a general state primary to be

cation or petition signed by himself

trict judges, or any other officers for
which the electors Of the state or any
subdivision thereof greater than coun
try are entitled to vote, shall file with
the secretary OF state election board
between April oath and June Pond
Candidates for nomination or county
or township offices shall file their pc
,itions with the secretary OF the coun-
ty election board between May 4th and

cent special session OF the legislature
repeating that portion Of the primary
law which required large number OF
signatures upon the petition for each

Every candidate who files his petit
ion or application to g upon the ballot
as a candidate with either the state ol
county election board before said dat,
without having the required number
of signatures on the petition should
withdraw his application upon june
10Th and re-file it. As the time is very
short for filing after that date. every
candidate should give this matter care
ful and prompt attention. Guymoi
