PERSONAL PROPERTY
IN WHITMAN COUNTY

In commenting on the facts
shown by the county assessors list
of personal property which was com
pleted last week, the Colfax Gazette
says
One of the big things noticed this
year is the large increase in the
amount of grain in warehouses on
March /. This year the assessed
valuation of such grain is placed at
$741,55O, while year ago it was
assessed at $372,110.
Many new warehouses have been
added to the list and the valuation
is placed at $136,220 as compared
with $65,1t0 last year.
Automobiles show big increase
in number. but the horse is slipping
a little. The total for all ages a
year ago was 2S,S42. This year the
field deputies reported only 2S,526,
falling off of practically 300. The
decrease is entirely in one and two
year old colts. Three-year-old colts
moved up in the year from 1897 to
210S and work horses increased
from 1887 to 1858.
Stock cattle this year numbered
1865 as compared with 1909 a
year ago and 1913 two years ago.
Mich COWS failed to hold their
own. only 1867 being found this
year as compared with 1856 a year
ago and 7410 two years ago
Hogs took a heavy slump in num-
bers, going from 35,04S year ago
to 27,612 this year. Two years ago
the number was reported at 29,313.
Sheep also showed a slight decline
in numbers. falling from 15,S8S a
year ago to 14,239 this year.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1916-06-30
Total values placed on household
goods year ago remain practically
at $407,430.
RAILROAD INTERESTS
PULLMAN PEOPLE

A number of Pullman people are
vitality interested in the contract
awarded Saturday for the construc-
ton of an extension of the Chicago,
Milwaukee d St Paul railway
through parts of Montana The road
trayerses the entire territory for
which the H. Folger Realty com pany
are agents, and persons who have
already purchased land in that sec
ton, as we'll as those who are con
templating such a purchase, are
greatly elated at the assurance OF
adequate railroad facilities. The
contract calls for % miles of road,
at an expenditure of approximately
5000, 900. and constitutes a part of
the proposed line between Missoula
and Great Falls. 1t covers that part
of the route from Blackfoot Junction
to Clearwater, and work will be com
menced at once. The road runs west
of the Blackfoot valley, about one

COLLEGE GRADUATES
WILL MARRY TODAY

One of the prettiest weddings of
the season will occur this afternoon
at 1880 at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Cave,
when their daughter, Miss Hettie
Cave, will become the wife of Clar-
ence l.. Hix. The ceremony will be
performed by the Rev. C. II. Harri-
son of the Federated church, in the
presence of about so relatives and
friends. Miss Marie Cave, a sister
of the bride, will play the wedding
march, and Miss Lena Hix sister of
the groom, will sing Because
Three-year-old Margaret Roberts will
bear the golden circlet which forms
an important part of the ceremony,
and two other little girls, Hermine
Duthie and Maurine Styles, will be
flower girls. Following the cere-
mony Mr. and Mrs. Hix will leave
for the lakes for a honeym Don trip,
later returning to Pullman to make
their home.
Both the young people are gradu-
ates from the State college, Mr.. Xix
receiving his degree in mathematics
in 1909 and his bride graduating
from the home economics depart
ment in 1915. Following gradua-
tion Mr.. Hix taught mathematics in
the Pullman high school for several
years, later accepting a position on
the college faculty. which he still
holds. He is a mem ber of the Sigma
Phi Epsilon fraternity.
The bride, since graduation, has
been employed at the college library.
She is a member of Alpha Theta Sig
ma sorority. Both were prominent
in social circles at the college and
leaders in student activities, and
have many warm friends, who wish
them much happiness on life's
journey.

POST OFFICE RECEIPTS
SHOW INCREASE

The total receipts of the Pullman
post office for the last fiscal year OF
the post office department. which
closed March 81, amounted to $780,
1877, gain of $3.50 over the pre-
yiOus year, This will mean an in
crease of 500 in the salary of Post
master Reed. The receipts of the
ColfaX postoffice for the same year
were $16,154.
The receipts of the Pullman office
are not fair indication of the pos
tai matter handled on account of the
large volume of mail sent out and
received by the experiment station
and extension department of the
State College under the government
frank. The fact that the Pullman
post office leads all the others in
Whitman county is a good indication
of the relative size and growth of
the several cities and towns.

RAINS REDUCE CROWDS

Heavy rains in the Big Bend coun-
my Monday morning made it impos-
siole for the big majority of Big
Bend farmers who were planning to
Visit the State College to make the
trip. Instead of the crowd of 500
farmers which was expected. about
100 braved the bad roads and the
elements and arrived safely in Pull
man. where two very profitable days
were spent in an inspection of the
plant OF the college and experiment
station.

Adequate sign boards, warning au-

merous residents of that part of Col

two days between July 10 and July Is without paying any
railroad fare whatever.
How did you do it, Mr. Davis?
Besides after paying your hotel bill at.the Owyhee in
Boise July 10, we hear nothing of you until Au
gust when you bought oil and gas at American
Falls except that you bought mileage book July
26 Did you stay in Boise all the time from July Is to
July g. and did you stay without expense whatever?
How did you do it?
We are more than interested in that for if can
manage to live in Boise eleven days without any expense
we want to know
How did you do it7
You certainly didn't go home to American Falls be-
tween July Is and July &C. when you bought your rail-
road transportation because if you did, you must have
walked to expense
After all, wasn't Captain Davis right when he charged
that you had not made faithful account of your
Ipaign expensesa
And if you not faithful in reporting your
paign expenses under oath, with disqualification for office
staring you in the face how you be expected to be
faithful governor with power you except the
Legislature which only yourself call into extra session
to act, should there be need for acting?
False in thing, false in all things, old
Iadage.
Unless you explain these apparent discrepancies in
statement how you expect other than that
this adage will be applied to you?
How did you do it, Mr. Davis?
