gineer Carl Stisdley, representing the
engineering department and Richard
Gray, representing the traffic depart
ment of the Oregon Short Line, went
up to Alexander, Idaho, yesterday, to
investigate proposition to build a

A committee appointed by tho Gem

IL. Bancroft, vice-mesident and gen.
eral manager of the Short Line, last
week in regard to a railroad for Cen
tile valley. Mr.. Bancroft promised to
send representatives to Idaho to look
into the matter and ascertain whether
a branch line would pay.
1t is probable that a line twenty
five miles long will extend frorn some
place on the main line of the o. S.
l.. into the valley. 1t will not at this
time go down to Preston, somewhat
to the disappointment of residents
there.

Take Exceptions to !,
Our Statements

Some of those directly involved in
the work Of the fire department have
taken exceptions to our statement in
our last issue to the effect that TWEEN
ty minutes of time was consumed in
getting the water into the building,
also frumors and reports that the
chief did not act quickly on the al.
legged grounds that he thought some
one was playing a joke on him.
We have discussed the matter with
the chief, and others on the Job and
off, and who claim to know, and are
reliably informed that the chief acted
quickly. That there was absolutely no
joking or questioning over the phone
and the response was in good order,
and with as much dispatch as at any
time heretofore. That the only delay
was on account of running into the
gravel pile which overturned the hose
cart. This unfortunte occurrence was
one that might have happened with
anyone, and an inspection of the To-
cation of the hydrant, street car
track, etc, shows that the chief was
taking a consistent course to make
the necessary turns in order to con-
meet.
Notwithstanding this accident, now
that those who were present had time
to reflect, and realize that minutes
seem as long as hours when flames
are creeping high, we are informed
that the department did good service,
arrived in good time, and is entitled
to credit instead of censure.

WArTERsON ON ARBITRATION.

Col. Henri Watterson is n stanch
supporter of the Taft arbitration
treaties. and he feels confident that
the weight of public opinion will
force their approval by the senate,
and also that Il like sentiment. which
he says prevails in Europe, assures
Great Britain and France promptly
and by other powers in the near fu>
ture.
BEING a southerner, the colonel has
been asked how about the report that
foreign holders of Confederate sccur
tiles may use the arbitration treaties
as Il mean Of pressing claims based
on worthless bonds and cotton bonds
issued by the south and the repudiat-
ed obligations of some of the SOUTH
ern states. This DOGGY was taken
out of discussion in quick order. Col.

the Taft treaties will not only make
us a recognized world power. but
the leader Of the world powers in

failure of the senate to ratify would
bring obloquy upon u country. Col.
