The steel oil tank is ordered and the
foundation for the same is being pre-
pared.
Manager Rothert says the appica-
ton for a spur track from the Great
Northern line into the steel company S
yard has been applied for and accepted
by the railroad company, and but for a
bit of red tape which remains to be
complied with, work on the spur would
now be under way.

Red Mountain Mining

Harry Krollpfeifer, superintendent
of the Chelan Consolidated Copper
company, and F. C. Buckingham,
foreman, are now on their way to the
Red Mountain mines to start develop
ment work
A large list Of supplies was purchas-
ed this week and sent out to the mines.
About eight men will be employed
from the start but it is likely that the
force will be increased from time to
time.
A number of tunnels have been
bored on the Consolidated properties,
but it is Mr.. Krollpfeiffer's intention to
start a new one this summer higher up
on the mountain, and expects to strike
some high grade ore before the sum-
mer is over.
The Chelan Consolidated properties
are owned by New York capitalists and
for the past six years they have been
boring tunnels into the mountain.
Some rich specimens have been taken
from the properties and they are only
waiting to see whether the ore is there
in paying quantities.

An Indian giving the name of Willie
Bob, OF Monitor, was arrested Monday
evening by Marshal Pratt for fighting
and given a fine Of $40 and costs.
After the fine had been imposed Judge
Grant asked him if he had the money;
if not it would be six days. He replied
that he did not, but that he knew
Dude Brown pretty well and he thought
he might get him to pay the assess
ment. Dude was sent for and appear
ed on the scene few moments later,
and to his amazement found that the
Indian had been fighting with his
brother. What do you think Of that
for nerve" Nevertheless his heart
went out to the poor redskin, the fine
was paid and the Indian forked over
his ticker as security.

Making A PIdything of the Recall

Someone, We have forgotten his
name, in a burst of inspiration, said,
After all, men are only grown up
children"
The truth of this observation has ire
quently been made manifest in the
past. The most recent verifcation OF
this modern proyerb comes from Seattle,
where the recall law is in force and was
used to Gust Mayor Gill, who, it was
charged was in league with law violat-
ors. The Welfare League put up Mr..
DiIIing, an old and highly respected
citizen, against Mr.. Gill. Backed by
the Post-Intelligencer and what was
claimed to be the best element OF the
population, Mr.. Dilling was triumph
antly elected, and the fact heralded all
over the country as the first instance OF
the successful application of law un-
der which the people could get rid OF
a bad man in office.
The newly elected mayor has been
in office but a short time, but long
enough, it appears, to offend certain OF
those who demanded the recall OF May
or Gill, and now it is seriously proposed
to again resort to the law to Gust Mr..
Dilling.
The voters of Seattle will learn ere
long that the recall is to be considered
as something serious and expensive,
rather than political plaything, and is
not to be invoked on a frivolous pre-
text. It is scarcely conceivable that
there is sound reason for the recall of
Mayor Dilling. The movement is eth
er intended to discredit the law, which
is obnoxious to the utlra-conservatives,
or it has its origin in pique. Neither
is good ground upon which to invoke
the aid of an extraordinary law which
was intended to be used only in ex-
treme cases. The people OF Seattle
are evidently intent on experimenting
with it much as a child with a new and
strange plaything. 1t is to be hoped
that enough common sense will prevail
not to make farce of law that was
intended to be wholesome in the hands
of people who may claim to be free
from hysteria.

ADJOURNED COUNCIL MEETING
Decided in Favor of Snow Greek Water
Company's Proposition

When the council met in adjourned
session last Friday evening all the
members were in their seats by eight
O'Clock. Several small bills had &C
cumulated and these were promptly
disposed of and the real business of the
evening, the water question, taken up.
Engineer Boehmer, representing the
lcicle Canal company, submitted a
slightly modified proposition from the
one submitted at the Tuesday meeting,
but would not enter into a shorter con
contract than twenty years. Mr..

contract and also agreed to supply the
town with water in excess Of one million
gallons at price OF one and one-half
cents per thousand gallons 1t will be
remembered that the Icicle Canal
company proposed to bring water to 4

WASHINGTON EDITORS MEETING
Generous and 1ospitable People--Raaroad
Men Not All Cold and Selfish

The people who reside on Grays
Hnbor know how to entertain their
guests. With this statement every
newspaper man who attended the
twenty-ffth annual meeting Of the
Washington State Press Association held
at Hoquiam August 8, and will
agree.
When we say Grays Harbor we want
to be understood as including Hoquiam,
Aberdeen and Cosmopolis, all of which
cities were visited during the three
days meeting. Every newspaper man
who attended the meeting will recall
the event with satisfaction and pleasure
as he reflects over the many pleasing
attentions shown him and the trouble
everyone took to make his visit pleasant
and agreeable
We can not torego mentioning an
incident which occurred on the return
trip from Pacific Beach to Hoquiam,
Sunday morning. The train left Moe
lips so early that eight members Of the
party in choosing between missing
their breakfast and missing the train
decided to pass up the breakfast.
This fact reached the ears of w. c.
Albee, superintendent of the Ia
coma Division Of the Northern Pa
cifc railroad, who had his private car
attached to the train, and he invited
the eight who preferred to miss a meal
to staying over twenty-four hours into
his car, where a substantial and highly
appreciated breakfast was served. We
are violating no confidence when We
say that this thoughtful bit Of courtesy,
coming from an officer Of soulless

corporation, was highly appreciated
and will not soon be forgotten by the
recipients.
While there are a number of towns
and villages around the bay which goes
by the name Of Grays Harbor, Aber-
deem and Hoquiam are the metropolii
and approach the dignity of cities.
Built up and depending almost entirely
on the lumber industry, and knowing
how much that industry was languishing
in central and eastern Washington We
were most agreeably surprised to find
the mills on the harbor, and there
seemed to be hundreds OF them, many
enormously large, all running on full
time and many running day and night.
This is due to a well sustained foreign
and coastwise demand for lumber. At
both Hoquiam and Aberdeen were
deep sea vessels loading lumber.
As an evidence of what can be &C
complished in the way Of interior house
finishing with the use Of Washington
woods the club house Of the Grays
Harbor Lumber company, at Cosmopo-
lis, where reception was held and re-
freshments served. was revelation to
many of the visiting newspaper men.
The different rooms were finished in
Washington fir, hemlock, spruce and
pine, all in natural wood color, showing
how unnecessary it is to import woods
to embellish our homes. Mr.. Jackson,
president OF the company, and Mr..
CooneY, general manager, were present
and took pleasure in showing the visit
ors through the building and explaining
how the best uses were made of the
native wood.
An elaborate banquet was given by
the Aberdeen commercial organization,
at the Hotel Washington, the feature
of the affair being a speech by ex-Sen-
ator Wilson, in which he declared this
to be the reign OF the demagogue and
not Of the people" just exactly revers-
ing the conception which most people
entertained OF the present political
status, declaration which did not meet
with the hearty approval which followed
his other declaration when he urged
the passage Of law destroying the
records OF our reform schools. so that
it would be impossible to ferret out a
boys record in later years when he is
trying to make good.
The citizenihip OF Grays Harbor is
made up OF class of men and women
who have the faith that moves mount
aims. A well built and conveniently
operated trolley line connects Aberdeen
and Hoquiam, which are only few
miles apart and will ere long be all one
city.
The Pacific Beach resorts, which
can be reached at different points in a
short time, either by rail or boat, are
visited by eastern Washington people
in large numbers during the summer
months, and prove an unfailing source
Of delight.
There will inger in the memory Of
the writer for many a day, pleasant
recollections Of three days spent among
people unsurpassed for generous hos
pitality and gracious attention to guests.
