Hold Meeting at Hunters
Discussing River Road

A meeting was held at Hunters
last Sunday for the purpose of dis
cussing the likelihood of the state
highway No. % being abandoned by
the republican state and national ad-
ministrations. About 100 people were
present from various points along
the Columbia river.
Addresses were made by w. Lon
Johnson, republican candidate for
state senator; J. M. Glasgow, republi-
can representative; Thos. l. Oak
shott, republican candidate for
prosecutor; J. S. Lane, republican
commissioner; Joseph Hudspeth, re-
publican commissioner; J. Stanley
Webster, republican congressman.
It was announced that the republi-
can state administration has recon-
mended the abandonment of the road,
partly because of the fact that the
republican national administration
will not give any federal aid to it.
The speakers at the meeting all
united in telling those in atten-
dance that the road is needed, al
though it is said that several of the
residents of the Columbia river knew
that before. Congressman Webster
stated that he did not know any
thing about it, but it appeared the
road was needed.
This state road No. % was created
by act introduced by c. r. McMil-
Ian, who was democratic state sena-
tor from this county under the Lis
ter administration. Some work has
been done on it, particularly south
of Kettle Falls, but with the change
in state and national administrations
it's abandonment has been decreed.
The road was planned to connect
Kettle Falls with the lower Colum-
bia river country and Davenport.

Salvation Army Drive
Made in Stevens County

The annual drive for funds for
the Spokane Salvation Army is in
progress in Stevens county, in charge
of the following local chairmen:
Chewelah, F. L. Reinoehl, F. w.
Dickey, j. R. Jones; Kettle Falls,
Mrs. H. Munro; Marcus, D. R. Sny-
der; Northport, A. K. Ogilvie; Val
ley, John Kulzer; Springdale, C. O..
Snapp; Hunters, ]. M. Glasgow;
Daisy, J. J. Charlton; Clayton, Mrs.
We're; Loon Lake, Oliver Gallaher;
Addy, C. Ostrum; Colville, w. l..
Sax.
Lieut.. D. Harris, Ensign J. Barron
and w. S. Kennedy of Spokane have
been in Colville and Chewelah assist
ing in getting the movement started
Other towns will be handled solely
by the local committees.
The Salvation Army has come to
be recognized as the one sure
agency by which charity may be ex-
tended to suffering humanity, with
no danger that funds will be mis-
applied, or that unworthy people or
professional beggars will receive the
benefits. There are many people
who desire to do something in life
in the way of giving charity to un-
fortunates who through adversely
or ignorance are unable to care for
themselves. Much money is annually
thrown away in the towns of Ste
vens county by promiscuous giving
to professional beggars who have
never lived in the county, and have
no intention of remaining after they
have received all the contributions
they can get.
The Salvation Army never turns
down a legitimate appeal for aid.
Funds donated to charity through
the agency of the Army are sure to
go to the right places.
The rescue and maternity work,
the employment bureau and the
emergency relief are three phases of
the Army work which distinctly
reach Stevens county. The rescue
work is now caring for four Stevens
county girls, and the history of the
Spokane organization shows many
cases from this county which have
been handled. The employment bu-
reau and the emergency relief are
often used by Stevens county resi-
dents.
Colville's quota of $500 is being
raised by donations of sums from So
to $25.

Form Taxpayers League
and Set Meeting Date

AS a concerted effort to effect a
substantial reduction in taxes, the
residents of Pleasant Valley, after
two mass meetings held at the
Quillisascut grange hall, decided to
launch a campaign for the organiza-
ton of a Stevens County Taxpayers
League.
In order to make this organization
as county wide in scope as possible, it
was decided to communicate with
the other community and civic or
ganizations in the county and re-
quest them to take similar action.
1t is planned at this time to have
as large a number of the members
of the League as possible attend
meeting to be held in Colville at the
court house on August 18th and 18th,
the 18th being the last day for filing
of declarations of candidacy by the
various office seekers. Taxation
problems will be discussed at this
meeting and the League will en-
deavor to center support on those
candidates who they are confident
will be sincere in their efforts to con-
duct their office in the most
economical manner possible, so as to
effect substantial reduction in taxes.
About 100 people were in atten-
dance at the mass meeting held at
the grange hall Wednesday evening,
July 10Th.
Taxpayers from all over the coun-
ty are urged to attend the meeting
to be held in Colville August 18th
and 18th.

Effort at City Beautiful
Not Bringing Results
(Contributed)

About 3 years ago city beautiful
club and a park board were elected
whose duties were to suggest ways
and means of improving the city
park, city streets and in general to
improve the appearance OF the city
of Colville. At that time the citi-
zens had visions of clean streets,
painted homes, flower gardens and
rose arbors, in fact, general clean
ing up of the city seemed at that
time to be what was sorely needed.
If these bodies have accomplished
anything to that end in the 3 years
of their service the people have fail
ed to note the effects. In many in
stances in the place of flower gar
dens, mustard weeds grow in pro-
fusion, and instead of rose arbors,
burdock and thistles in all their
grandeur and splendor grow in their
place to gladden. the heart and
please the eye.
We believe that for the good OF
the city beautiful propaganda the
members of the above organizations
should hand in their designations, as
bodies that have ceased to function
are a hindrance in so much as GER
tain duties which are expected OF
them cease to trouble the easy going
public who are too apt to let things
slide along and follow the lines of
least resistance.
So much for the city beautiful and
the park board. Now for the indi-
vidual. Any man or woman claim
ing Colville as their home should
have civic pride enough to clean up
their yards and alleys, keep boards
and wood piled neatly to one side,
and NOV the weeds from the front
yard and parking strip. If every
man would make himself a COM
mittee of one and do this, marked
Improvement in the appearance OF
Colville would soon be noted.
We all know the past few seasons
have been extremely hot and dry
and this coupled with the Inadequate
city water supply has made it hard
to keep lawns green and flower gar
dens growing. But there is no ex-
cuse for allowing mustard, burdock,
or thistles to thrive and go to seed
in or around your homes or in the
street in front; a few minutes time
with scythe or sickle will prevent
the noxious weeds from going to
seed.

HOrseshoes New Sport
of the COlville Fans

With the slakening of the baseball
season, horseshoes seems to be the
popular pastime of many Colville
business men. Several of Colville's
most prominent business men are
taking up the old barnyard sport, and
several artists of the game have
been discovered. The prize contest
OF the season thus far was staged
on the vacant lot between the Col
vile hotel and the Palace theater
last week Wednesday. w. Lon john
son and Kenneth G. Mckay were the
contestants, and the stakes were din
ner for five. The first two out of
three games were to choose the win
ner, and Johnson won. AS was
agreed, DR.. Mckay was host at
chicken dinner for w. Lon Johnson,
Thomas l. Oakshott, Norman Moss
and DIR. r. S. Wells. Friday evening
a surprise came when one was serv-
ed by Mrs. johnson at the Johnson
home. Dr. Mckay will not tell where
he got the chicken for the occasion,
but says it would behoove people
to take care in locking their chicken
coops at night.
George w. Peddycord and Dr.. o.
F. Vinson claim to be the champions
of Piety hill. The degree in which
this claim is we'll founded may be a
matter of future decision, as Hugh
Waddell, William Waddell, Henry r.
Spedden and H. o. Bair are said to
be spending considerable extra time
in learning how a horseshoe should
be thrown in order to have it land
within any approximate distance Of
the stake.
Downtown there are so many en-
gagged in training the trusty right
arm to cast the shoe, that it would
be unfair to quote champions at this
time. A tournament might bring
out some of the dark horses who
have won great distinction in years
gone by.

Place City Fire Bell
in the BandStand Park

With the tearing down of the old
city hall and fire station, the fire
bell has had no official residence,
and was temporarily left on the
parking strip. No one made any
effort to remove it, as it weighs
something like three-quarters OF
ton. Arrangements were made TO
use the Free Methodist bell in case
of fire, but that use was fortunately
not occasioned.
The council has had the bell placed
in the bandstand park, northeast OF
the old city building, and where II
can be used in case of fire. 1t is
raised sufficiently to allow its use'
but anyone tampering with it, or
ringing it except in case of fire Will
be prosecuted.

Building Trades Now
Taking Strike vete
(By Federated Pressl

Chicago-Referendum ballots on a
proposed strike May 22 have been sub
mitted to the go unions in the Chicago
building trades council by unanimous
vote of the delegates to the council.
The resolution calls for a strike on all
jobs where non-union men are en-
ployed or where men are working un-
der police protection.
1t is blow at the so-called Citizens
Committee to Enforce the Lands
Award which has been importing non
union workers and spending $65,000
a week and more on guards and Gin
vestigators" employed in, connection
with non-union jobs. Unions who had
accepted the Lands award after a
period of oppositionwere turned down
by the Landis committee as Gin
sincere"
The sentiment among unions is
strongly in favor of adoption of the
referendum, according to officials of
the building trades council. There are
over 10000 building trades workers
and the jobs to be affected amount to
over $50,000,000.

Autocracy Is Dead
Except in Industry

Washington-After defeating au-
tocracy abroad, American soldiers
have returned to find industry con-
trolled by money-grabbing despots at
home, said Congressman Huddleston
in a speech in the house on the miners
strike.
"The operators are not interested
in details of wages and working con-
ditions. They want to destroy the
union. The charge that the operators
are aiming at the destruction of the
miners organization is proven: First,
by their refusal to negotiate touching
wages and conditions; second, by the
unanimous support they are receiving
from the open shoppers, such sup
port obviously having union-hating
basis; third, by the propaganda issued
by the operators, which is aimed at
union practices, such as the Check
off, and is almost wholly devoted to
by an oppressive, dictatorial and
even lawless organization"
Congressman Huddleston showed
that the reason coal owners refuse
to sign central competitive field con-
tract, similar to the last 25 years, is
because they want to place this field
upon the same basis of wages and
conditions as the non-union fields"
Son the other hand, it is to the in
terest of the mine workers to include
the entire field in a single working
agreement, for if separate agreements
are made in the various mining dis
tricts, each district may be played off
against the other lust as the nOn-union
West Virginia field is played against
the unionized central competitive
field" he said.

the grain gamblers. These speculative
pirates absorbed the prosperity and
the producers continue to go broke.
1t was the same exploiters throufn
their subtle control of the Federal
Reserve system that Debated the
farmers out of ten billion. Through
the "open shop" movement, they
again Debated the workers out of

prices and reducing the returns df
both the farmer and the worker. They
trebled their already swollen incomes
until they have built the greatest

This billion dollar increase, which

added to the backs of the workers.
