Promote POWER PROJECT.

Some of the stockholders of
the Burns Flour Mill Co. went
up to Emigrant creek the first
of this week to investigate the
power site owned by the company
They were accompanied by an
experienced man in such projects
and he was most favorably i'm
pressed with the possibilities.
All are agreed that a great horse
power can be generated on the
property and II is likely the pro-
ject will be put before the stock
holders in the near future with
the result that work vii begin on
the property soon.
The city authorities might antici-
pate this action and secure the
necessary ground for a ceptic
tank and otherwise provide for
city water and sewerage, as this
company can no doubt furnish
power for such as well as lights
and other purposes.

improvements and extensions"
and his influence will be felt.
Mr.. Gray recognizes Portland

Hill system of the Northwest;
hence the business men and the

great deal of influence with Mr..
Gray's recommendations as to

RIGHT ON THE JOB

For the benefit of those who
really want to know the state
ment is made that the county
court is right on the job so far
as any road or other matters
that come up before il in proper
manner are concerned. The rre-
sent county court is doing all it
possibly can toward the better
ment of roads throughout Harvey
county. All available equipment
is being used and road masters
are doing good work. There is
urgent demand for general repair
work in every section as is alway
the case at this time of year and
this must have attention to make
the highways passable for heavy
teaming.
The Burns-Bend road was
never before the court on petition
until the present term which con-
vened Wednesday Of this week.
The court has been ready to act
upon this road at any time but
had to wait proper procedure.
The court even exceeded its au-
thority in order to expedite this
road building by ordering ii view
ed and surveyed before the nee
essary petition was filed calling
for such road. A portion Of this
proposed highway passes over
private land and the court cannot
without some authority open up
such roads.

This great religious weekly had
a representative at the Roosevelt
speaking in Portland last month,
but he failed to report it until
this week. +. b. Hill and his
daughter were in the city at the
time of Col. Roosevelt's recent
visit. They wanted to hear him
speak but found it difficult to
gain admission owing to the i'm
mense crowd.
1t seemed they were doomed to
disappointment as people were
being turned away but some of
the ladies' claiming to be "suf-
fragettes" were permitted to go
in and Miss Hill was one of the
fortunates. After lettering at
the entrance a short time Mr..
Hill told the guard he guessed
ii was about time he went in. :"
The guard wanted know who he
was and why he should be given
such privilege when others were
being turned away. Mr.. Hill in
formed him with much dignity
that he was the special represent
ative Of The Times-Herald of
Burns. When asked for his card
Mr.. Hill called attention to his
big ''somborao" which went with

particlar purpose of which was
to present Mrs. A. J. Irwin with
a token of esteem and respect.

ception before she left for South

classes next week and the entire
intervening time being taken up
with functions incident to the
school, it was hurridly decided
to bring Mrs. Irwin's many young
friends together last night in her
honor.
The lady was presented with
some very handsome table linen

tial and monogram. There was
no formal presentation and many
guests present did not know of
it.

HISTORIC ALAMO

! SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Sept. 16-
That the historic Alamo shall evel
continue the shrine of liberty in Texas
ts now an assured fact. In and about
this building on the 9Th of March,
1886, the question of Texas independ.
ence was debated in a most emphatic
way, between an army under Santa
Anna and a mere handful of men un-
der the direction of William Travis.
David Crockett, and James Bowie, who
stood to the last man for Texas in
dependence. For years this historic
building had been buffeted about by
the demands of commercialism. Some
years ago, however, the patriotic
spirit of Texas asserted itself and the
Daughters of the Republic of Texas
purchased all interest in the building
and adjacent grounds and recently
turned these over to the state. The
state authorities are now active in
restoring the buildings and making
them a monument of Texas liberty.
While the Alamo is situated in San
Antonio, the entire state is interested
In this historic structure. Within
these walls as great heroism was dis
played as that of Leonidas at Tber-
For these reasons the au-
thorities are being heartily seconded
ln their efforts at preserving this fam
pus land mark in Texas history.

today to remain until $40 this after
noon, visit to the state fair here
being the first engagement of his
13,O0O-mile trip through the west.
The president was greeted by sew

and there was frequent applause from
sidewalk throngs as he was brought
in an auto to the breakfast rendered
by the Syracuse chamber Of COM

There were some two hundred

acknowledging the hospitality OF the
Syracuse citizens. His principal ad-
dress of the day was reserved for the
fair grounds, whichither he was
corted by the state troops later in the
the morning.
Governor Dix was detained at the
Spring Lake conference of governors
and sent the president telegram ex
pressing his regret at not being able
personally to welcome him at New
York state. The presidents "swing

confine himself largely to a discussion

none of its bitterness in the closing
days. The Conservatives, through
their press and orators, campaign lit

to assail the government for entering
into a trade agreement on the ground
that it is only the first step in a deep

tach Canada from Great Britain, and
to absorb the country into the Amer
