LATAH AND TEKoA.

Leaving Rockford, a delightful trip is
made through heavy timber or grand
farming country passing by number
of small towns sprung into existence
since the railroad has been built, the
first of any note being Latah, located on
the brow of hill, from which grand
sweep of farming country is spread out
before the gaze, with the mountains in
the Cnur d Alene Indian reservation
only short distance away acting as q
background This town has had steady
and substantial growth, and is bound to
be town of no little importance in the
near future. A large -four mill elevator
and academy arc located here besides Il
number of small stores, but they are
sadly in need OF good hotel and general
merchandise store. Either of these
would be paying institution. This
town has a population Of between 800
and 400, the same size as Tekoa a few
miles further on.
Tekoa sprung out OF wheat field as
now fiourisbing and busy place,
with number of well-stoCked
stores, good hotel and elevator
and is the junction of the Idaho branch
OF the Oregon Railway x Navigation
Company and Is getting to be quite rail-
road center. 4 hands ONE depot is about
being finished. and rumor has it that a
round house and machine shop are to be
built shortly as ground has been secured

For many years he has enjoyed lucra-

SPIRIT OF THE HOME PRESS.

Mr.. Window will get pretty clear
idea of his standing in this part of the
world, says the Anaconda Standard, il
he reads the daily papers published in
the West. We have been giving extracts
on the subject from day to day and add
n number of them this morning TO show
how thoroughly the question is separ.
ated from politics The secretary finds
some of his severest critics in the repub-
lican press.
, 1889-10-31

THE decision OF Secretary Window in
favor OF free admission of silver-lead
ores from foreign countries is consid-
cred a great blow to the mining interests
throughout the West. Tbe confidence
heretofore reposed in the policy of the
administration to carry out the protec-
ton principles of the republican party
caused capitalists to invest heavily in
silver bearing mines, which, under for
mer prices, would justify shipment to
reduction works and leave small mar
gin of profit. A dispatch from Denver
states that some of the mines in Colo.
RADIO have suspended work. The same
result may be expected throughout the
extensive mining districts in this local I.
ity, 1t is hoped that this statutory m
justice will be corrected as soon as con.
gress couvenes.
I The silver and lead industries of tho
! West should be encouraged and protected
as they are among the most important
products known west of the Mississippi
| valley.

This town has also made wonderful
progress the past season. streets have
been graded, sidewalks laid, substan-
tial buildings built, besides number
of very pretty private residences perched
up on tile hillsides, surrounded BY beau

its well.stocked stores and its total lack

Brief and Readable Sketches ot
the Leading Towns Along
the Route.

A few days ago yonr correspondent
took trip over the new extension Of the
.. II, 4 N. railway to Rockford, and
thence to Moscow via Colfax, passing
through the principal part of the famous
Palouse valley, part that now has di'
rect communication with Spokane Falls,
from whicha brisk trade may be expected.
After a pleasant run of twenty-three
miles through heavy belt of timber
and over very smooth road for . now
one, the flourishing town of Rockford is
reached. This town is just now enjoy
ing an especially active and progressive
season. Every train brings her class
of enterprising, thrifty and energetic
people, while the mails contain commu-
nications from woud-be settlers from all
parts OF the union, anxious to come
to this wonderfully progressive
and rich agricultural and mineral state 4;
and as a result of all these movements
there is marked appreciation in land
| values. Rockford has had long and
hard fight with fortune, but her pros.
poets are now very bright, and she is
clearly destined to become u fine CITY,

SOME two.story bank and store-building
has been erected, and one of the ncatest
and finest looking public school houses in
this part OF Washington, two stories and
a basement, capable oil seating 200 schol-
ars with u tall tower like steeple, has
been built ON a hill overlooking the
town and delightfully."- shaded by huge
pine trees, making it at once beautiful
and picturesque. Besides these, quite n
number of neat and pleasant cottages
peeping out from among the trees on
either side of Rock creek have been
built, giving the city pleasant, cheer
iul aud homelikc appearance.
Two large saw mills and -four mill
are located here; also elevators and
grain warehouses besides eleven saw
mills within a radius of seven miles.
As business point, none could be
! better, and there are excellent chances
for the opening of u general merchandise
store, livery stable, and IA hotel. Sew
eral other enterprises of lesser magnitude
were undertaken the past year, notably
reservoirs dug, and negotiations made
for the purchase of steam fire engine.

a car containing fifty Indians of this
warlike tribe passed through for st.
Joe, Missouri. Tuesday, in charge of
Captain jack Crawford and w. w.
Chapel. Through the kindness of the
former we were given the following
facts pertaining to them; There were
thirty-nine men, eight squaws and
three papooses. All of the men have
been on the war path and have kim
died many man.
Three days ago was the first time
they ever saw train of cars.
Three of these Indians were iu the
savage band of Geronomo, which
played so much havoc 3 few years ago.
The remainder of the famous band are
in Florida. Captain Crawford left a
bond of $4,000 for their safe return.
Each Indian is to receive sI5per month
while with the captain. While in st.
Joseph they will perform war
dances and indulge in other
savage sports. The trip viii
cost $4,000, to be paid by the
Fair association. The captain, as a
scout, has fought these same Indians
on their native plains, and now he
was the only man whom they would
consent TO go with. He saw President
Harrison and Secretary Noble in per-
son and obtained permission to take
them from their reservation. He will
receive the appointment as special
agent of this tribe of Indians tor the
prevention of fraud and introduction
of whiskey among them. The Indians
attracted great deal of attention by
their odd actions and eccenLricities.
