TO INSTALL OIL TANKS.

The news has been going the rounds
here of late to the effect that the Con-
tinental Oil Co. had given up the prop
osition Of establishing oil tanks at
this place inasmuch as the information
had been given out that tanks were to
be installed at Cottonwood, but such
is not the case In a letter received
last evening by w. A. Robinson Of the
Central garage, the Lewiston represen-
tative of the company, L. LIE Quime,
says:
Il was informed last evening of the
rumor that has been spreading In
Grangeville that the Continental Oil
Co. had abandoned the idea of putting
in an oil station in your city. If such
is the case, someone has been getting
information that l cannot secure. The
intention is to build at the same time
oil stations in both Grangeville and
Cottonwood, and the company has not
shown any intention, up-to-d date, to
abandon either point. On the con.
trary, they are hurrying up the filling
of their orders for storage tanks for
both points"
