Next Sunday, October IS, will oc-
cur the formal dedication of the new
United Presbyterian church. The
ceremonies of dedication will be IN
charge of the Rev. H. F. Given. d. d.,
of the First United Presbyterian
church of Spokane assisted by the
Rev A. w. Wilson of Mt Vernon.
Wash. All Pullman, indeed, the en-
tire Pacific Northwest, is interested
in the magnificent structure which
$50 fittingly crowns the . years Of

NJ. Hays and all rejoice that another
pretentious and well appointed
stiritual home is provided for the
1900 young men and women who
come here from all parts of the
United States to secure an educa-
ton.
Next Sunday will be truly a day OF
Thanksgiving for the members and
friends of the United Presbyterian
church. The dedication services
will take place at $50 in the after
noon, and following the dedicatory
sermon by the Rev. MIR. Given, the
statement of the building committee,

Spaulding Of Portland The Rev
/ Mir. Spaulding was in charge of mis-
sion work for the church 16 years
ago when the congregation was or
ganized in Pullman, with a handful
of members, and he sent the Rev.
DR.. Hays to Pullman to have charge
of the new field. Hence his interest
in the local church is far more than
casual, and the selection of the pio-
neer pastor of the Presbytery to de-
/ liver the jubilee sermon was a very
happy one.
The long years of faithful work
have Slapped the strength of Dr.. Hays
and while he has been forced to turn
the reins of active leadership over to
an assistant pastor, he still exercises
his potent power for good through
out the entire community. His as

SCRAP AVERTEO
At SPOKANE HIGHWAY MEETING
Resolution Proposing Silence as to Where
State Money be Expended in Whitman
County Precludes Possibility of Clash.

A resolution, offered by r. c. Nc
Croskey of Garfield. proposing that
nothing be said in regard to where
money for the state highway shall be
expended in Whitman county, put a
quietus on a threatened clash in re-
gard to the route for the state road
through this county at the meeting
of tho Eastern Washington highway
association held last Friday in Spo-
kane. Pullman was represented at
the meeting by +. A. Archer, presi-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce.
and Professor o. l.. Waller The
following story of the meeting is
taken from the Spokesman Review
of Saturday:
The expected fight over the routes
of state-built highways in Whitman
county did not materialize before the
session of the Eastern Washington
Highway association Friday after
noon, the question being settled at a
cOmnllJce IleStlHS.
In the caucus called for Whit
man county delegates, attended by
nine or 10 of the IA present that
county passed resolution approx
ing the highways as authorized by
the last session of the legislature,
making no recommendation with re-
gard to where the state appropria-
tons should be expended. This
resolution was later substantially in
corporated in the report of the reso-
buttons committee and the commit
tee report was adopted with but
three nays.

ENGINEERS REPORT ON
PROPOSED HIGHWAY
Eastern Route for State Highway In
Spected by Waller and Edwards
Optimistic Report Made to
Chamber

An optimistic report concernir &
their findings in regard to the pre-
posed Eastern Whitman county route
for the state highway was made a
the meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce Tuesday evening by Professors
%. L. Waller and L. V. Edwards, OF
the engineering department, who
have completed tour of inspection
of the proposed route. The engineers
reported that they were well pleased
with the outlook for the eastern
route, which would touch Pullman,
Johnson, Cotton, Uniontown and
Lewiston, as to it's connection with
the Idaho state highway at Lewiston,
continuing through the Yellowstone
National park to the east, as we'll as
through Southern Idaho to connect
with the Lincoln highway east and
west at some point in Nevada.
The engineers recommended that
the chamber bend its every effort to
secure the construction of the east
ern wing, which would mean much to
this part of the country. They in
spected the route up the canyon from
Lewiston, which Idaho promises to
construct, and find that q five per
cent grade can be established leading
to Lewiston in place of the steep hill
road which is now used, with ap-
nroximately 10 miles of road. his
longer road would also connect with
the Troy and Genesee roads, thereby
tapping a much larger territory.
The question of the construction
of gravel roads in place of the hard
surface roads was discussed at con-
siderable length, and the concensus
Of opinion was that the change in the
etvle of road building would be a
happy one. It was pointed out that
On miles of the gravel road can be
constructed at the same cost as one
mile of hard surface road, and that
the gravel roads give excellent salts
faction Adherents of the gravel
nlan point to the excellent road in
tbe clinton district. which, with a
rifle sand added at intervals is as
good a road as can be found ana
constructed at comparatively little
expense.

MAKING A VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN

Miss Elizabeth MacKay, the only
Pullman candidate for a county Of
flee on any ticket, is making yigor-
Gus campaign for county superin-
tendent of schools and her friends
believe that she has an excellent
prospect of winning. She polled a
big vote in Pullman when she ran be-
fore and It is thought that the heavy
registration here will be a decided
advantage to her. She has been
away campaigning all this week.

Use 30 Split-Log Drags

We are using 80 split-log drags
in Lincoln county and we find them
the most economical implements we
have" said L. ]. Thayer. Il believe
these conventions should turn m ore
of their attention toward dirt road
problems. These remarks were
greeted with applause, as was the
response of c. l.. Mckenzie of Col
fax, who said:
81 don't want this association to
give way one inch on the best road
we can get for trunk lines. Too
much emphasis laid on dirt roads
will cause the moss-back taxpayer
to say, I told you so-the expense
of building hard surfaced roadways
is extrayagant.'
1--WE have 1000 miles of road in
Whitman county" said f. J. Wilmer,
land the dirt road sprinkled with
sand worked down into the clay and
costing about 500 a miles is better
than our water-bound macadam
roads that cost about $40, 200 mile.
Back of every mile of road In Whit
man county there is only $4,000
of assessed valuation and we can't
afford to spend $4,000 a mile"

rev W. G. NJ. Hays, for 16 years
pastor OF the local church who
with faltering speech, the result Of
ms long illness, addressed the synod
possibly for the last time. DR. Havs
welcomed the visitors to Pullman
ana TO his church. and gave com
prehensiye survey of the work ar
compllshed by the church since its
rounding. At the present time there
are no less than 2O9 college pro-
lessons and students upon the church
rolls, and 500 people of Pullman
look to the church for spiritual as
sistance.
Needs Student Assistant
The need of an assistant pastor for
the local church, whose time would
be devoted entirely to the 1900 col
lege students who are here from all
parts OF the Northwest, was urged
upon the synod, and the college
board of the general assembly may
be asked to appropriate a sum suf-
flclent to cover a part of the salary
of such an assistant, thereby reliev-
ing the financial strain under which
the church is now laboring in sup
port two pastors. The need of such
pastors at the Cheney Normal school,
Bellingham Normal, and the Uniyer-
sity of Idaho was also suggested, the
University of Washington being al
ready provided with a student
assistant.

Split Drag Is Victorious

The split-log drag came out vic
torious as one of the best road imple-
ments in use several delegates
speaking of its good work in the
communities and the resolutions in
dorsing it. Lantern slides showing
the road work done in Eastern Wash
ton during the last year we're ex-
planned by Mr.. Guilbert, and talks
by delegates touched upon expert
ences in their own counties, the
sentiment crystallizing in favor of
natural gravel roads or one of the
many oiled surface roads as the best
solution of Eastern Washington
problems.
State Highway Commissioner w.
R. Roy spoke briefly, declaring that
"the best solution of the road prob
lem is to take care of our dirt

delegates in the early hours of the.
convention as "a bullfight," a "snag''
or scrap" to be met with in the
afternoon, was whether the associa-
ton should recommend that the
state spend money on the shorter.
minimum grade route from Colfax
to Walla Walla through sparsely set
tied territory, or should recommend
the long route over sleeper grades
through more thickly settled terri
tory by way of Oakesdale, Palouse
and Pullman to lewiston Idaho,
and thence to Walla Walla.
When the convention recessed to
give the committee time to make up
its reports, Whitman delegate
/ called for a caucus of his county.
Instantly delegate from Asotin de-
clared that Asotin and Charleston
were as much Interested in Whitman
| county's fight as Whitman county it
self, and asked that Whitman allow
them to join the caucus. The re-
quest was drowned in chorus of
laughter and no invitation was given.
Call Move Political Jugglery
Whitman county retired, and Pull
mans contention was presented by
DR.. E. A. Archer, who said that
Whitman interests were being
jeopardized by political jugglery.
During the hour of the eontro-
versy threats of county division that
would make the rich eastern side of
Whitman separate county, with
Pullman as county seat, were made,
and accusations and denials were
heard.
The matter was at length settled
by resolution offered by State Sen
ator r. G., McCroskey Of Garfield
proposing that the caucus remain
silent as to where state money IN
Whitman county be expended, but
present a united front in favor of no
charge by the next legislature OF
the routes laid down by the last SEES
sion, leaving the fight to be settled
lin committee of the legislature next
winter as to which route shall get
the bulk of the appropriation.

bringing Up Father

The eminently successful COM
edy cartoon series by George Nc
>Manus, entitled Bringing up
Father, now running daily and
Sunday in the New York Ameri-
and hundreds of other live news
papers throughout the United
States and Canada, has been
made the nucleus of a musical
comedy for stage production by
Mr.. Gus Hill, whose theatrical
efforts for the past fifteen years
have been directed exclusively to
kindred offerings. AS a result
thereof, he enjoys the unique
distinction of having made a mil
lion dollars by exploiting cartoon
plays. Bringing up Father"
like the numerous other more or
less successful commonly called
funny pictures, have gained
their enormous popularity be-
cause they evoke a momentary
innocent amusement, produced
by a ludicrously crude caricature
representing a being not entirely
human.
Everybody looks for the funny
page, whether it's Drayman or
Banker, and they all laugh. 1t
is natural to suppose that a two
hour and a half entertainment

musical numbers and a chorus of
capricious maidens, to add zest,

Gov. SIaton Will Call
A Special Session

Atlanta. Oct. y. Governor
Slaton will cali a special session
of the state legislature to pass
laws relative to containment of
the cotton cror, as urged by a
great many advisors, as is indi-
Gated in a statement given to
the press. The governor says
frankly that he could not as a
law, recommend the enactment
of laws compelling the farmer
to curtaling his crop, and that he
would not do as governor what
he could not indorse as a private
citizen.
Governor Slaton insists that
the remedy for the cotton stu
alton is in the hands of Congress
and rot the states. He says that
it seems strange to him that the
people who in campaigns exalt
the farmer as the most patriotic
and intelligent of men now say
that he has not intelligence
enough to cut his crop down and
that there must be laws passed
to make him do so.
The attorney general advises
me that the plans Of curtailment
by probibitive taxation or penal
statute are unconstitutional, says
the governor. And even if they
were, such legislation would pre-
pare the way for legislative con-
troll of every private business and
the regulation of the energies of
every individual"
There has been considerable
gratuitous advice given the gov
ernor in an effort to force him to
call an extra session, and much
of it has come from sources nev-
err friendly to him, possibly in al
effort to get him into a hole. "
