ment and be ready for entry. Three OF
them are within the National Forest
and will not be open for public entry
but they are within the Northern Pa
cific limit and there will pass to patent
to this corporation 10000 acres of land
which will be subject to taxation.
Townships 80, 33, "a and 35, range AZ,
are also within the Northern Pacific
limit and 40, 900 acres more will 60 to
that corporation and come in for assess
ment. The remainder of these town
ships is also largely squatted upon and
will within oew years become patented.
1t is practically assured that within
year from date the taxable valuation of
the proposed new county would be bet
ween four and half and five millions.
Delay in the matter of county divis-
ision would prove costly to this side.
During the past two years our valuation
has been increasing more rapidly than
has that of the west side of the county.
This will continue to be true during the
next two years. 1t is on this side that
the big interests are forwarding and fos-
ering development. The longer county
division is delayed the larger proper
tion of Stevens countY's debts we will
be compelled to assume.
The proposed new county has no diff
cult problems in the way of bridging.
Our streams, with the exception of the
PendOreille are small and sluggishatmost
seasons of the year. There is no urgent
need of new expenditures along that
line on this side of the county. AS long
as we remain part of Stevens county
we must pay our part of the cost o1
bridging the Colyille river, the Spokane
river between Stevens and Spokane
counties and between Stevens and Lin
coin counties, and the Kettle river be-
tween Ferry and Stevens. There is
even talk of bridging the Columbia a.
Northport. the county commissioner
having made a conditional pledge O.
$4,000 tor that purpose.
Manv prominent men have been in
terviewed as to their opinion on county
division, and the general opinion seems
to be that the time is ripe, provided WI
have sufficient showing in the way o
taxable valuation, which the figures
above Indicate. In the matter of locat
ing the permanent county seat there Isl
general desire. that an election on thi
matter be deferred until two or fou
| years, and that in the meantime the neV
county would make no costly improve
ments in the way of court house ant
Jail, waiting until the country become
more fully settled and developed, AM
the center of population and the poin
most accessible to all the people can b
determined.

Notice Of Election

Notice is hereby given that general
election will be held in the Town Of
Newport, Washington, on the 9Th day OF
December, A. D. 1910, for the purpose OF
electing the following officers;
Mayor to fill vacancy.
Three Councilmen. for the term of two
years.
One Treasurer, to fill vacancy.
8. MCGEE, Town Clerk.

terest in everything that came before
the public. The effort to unite and
compromise was futile. and the people
must choose as to whom they think the
best men and the ones who would show
the most interest in the town and its
affairs.
The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1910-12-01

These figures are for the assessment
made in April, 1910, and do not include
the following large items which are now
taxable, or will be by the time the next
assessment is made in the spring of 1911:
The Metaline extension of the [. & w.
N. railroad, the million and half ce-
ment plant and power station at Meta
line Falls, the big sawmill and lumber
wards at lone, the new town at Metaline
Falls, more than twice the valuation In
the town of lone, besides the new saw
mill plant being built at Cusick and the
enlarged plant being erected at Dalkena.
In addition to this numerous tracts of
land have come into patent during the
past year, including several valuabl e
mining properties at Metaline, and the
immense cement clay and limestone
deposits at Metaline Falls belonging to
the Inland Portland Cement Co.
AL of this costly deyelopement work
that will come in for taxation on the
next assessment should easily bring the
taxable valuation of the proposed new
county up to four and quarter or four
and half millions, figure, at which
the new county would be we'll able to
take care of itself without increasing
present rates of taxation.
" ithin the next year seven townships
in the proposed new county will have
their survey accepted by the govern,

Taxable Valuation About Four
Million for Coming Year.
Strong Enough for County Division

Perhaps the most important item in
considering the matter of county division
10 that of taxable wealth in the proposed
new county. For the purpose of pla"ing
these figures before the people of East
ern Stevens county THE MINER has Sc
cured from the tax rolls, through the
courtesy of Auditor L. E. Jesseph,- the
following figures, which are therefore
correct, as nearly as could be determined
from the rolls:

After charges to depreciation or amortiza-

Union Gas Company reports TO the Public
Service Commission that Il earned 81 ,e3e, 999
