K, X. Stevenson, q successful farmer re-
siding in the vicinity of Fairweathsr. Lin.
coin county, the postoffice of which is still
called Capps, was in the city yesterday.
He informed a REVIEW representative
that the Northern Pacific elevator people
are buying great deal Of grain and now
have about 1900 bushels In store. This
is very satisfactory when 1t Is remem bered
few hundred bushels in that section. The
company intends TO put up large elevator
this season. The town now has one gen.
eral store and hotel, both doing a good
business. Mr.. Hughes Of Cheney intends
putting in stock Of hardware there in q
short time. The country is filing up rap
idly with settlers and the prospects are ex.

WHITE BLUFF PRAIRIE,
An Agricultural Region That Cannot Be
Excelled Anywhere.

A prominent farmer from White Bluff
Prairie informed REVIEW reporter yes
terday that the country in his immediate
neighborhood was being settled up quite
rapidly. He says that eight years ago
that part OF the country was not desira-
BILE location for the home seeker, and that
people passing through in search of land
would pass that by without giving II any
consideration, the reason for which he
supposed was owing to the abundance of
bunch and wool grass that covered the
soil Now, however, he says, the tide has
reversed and everybody wants q place
there. Land, said he, that could have
been had tor trivial sum at that time. is
now being held, and some of it sold, at elS
to $3O pcr acre. He says since il has been
proven that there can be easily broken,

to break the worst Of II, and that taken in.

toon being 80 near Spokane Falls, makes

perience could say that the soil on his
place (and the soil on the prairie is all of

way to break the soil is by plowing the

Thieves Enter tho Jswelry store of M.
II. whitehouss and Get Over $1,000.
Quite q sensation was caused yesterday
morning when it leaked out that Spo-
kane Falls jewelry store had been robbed
of fifty-four watches and six diamond
rings. a loss which reaches more than
$4,000. The victim is Mr.. M. H. White
house, whose store is opposite the Pacific
hotel. A reporter visited MIR. White.
house yesterday but was unable to gain
any particulars from him. for the reason
that he thought by keeping the matter
quiet the guilty parties would be more
easily detected, but as the affair became
street talk, the matter was given out
through other channels.
1t seems that about o'clock in the
evening he extlnguished the lights and
locked both entrances to the store, as he
thought, but it was afteIward found that
he only bolted the back door. He went to
supper, and on his return he discovered
the theft of the goods above mentioned.
The police were notified and Officers Nc
Herman and Griffin went quietly ut work
on the case, but found no clue. The burg
larry is without doubt very smooth piece
of thievina, being done so quickly and
quietly that persons next door or on the
street heard nothing. It was done in less
than twenty minutes.

Yesterday case came up In Judge Sny-
ders court which is the first one in this
county under law passed last year, which
makes the failure to return property hired
or borrowed tor q certain length of time a
larceny. The case was the Territory VS..
Blampeid. charged with having sold q
horse which he had hired of John +. Wal
ters. The case finally resolved itself into
dispute az to Blampeid's authority to
sell the horse and was decided that
Walters had verbally given the defendant
such authority.
Thomas Mclaughlin was arraigned on
q charge of pilfering valuables from a
clothes line, and the judge thought a 800
lesson might have purifying effect on
the defendant. He was taken to the Jail
to lanRuish.
Yesterday morning trunk was found
beside the railroad track which contained
$50 worth of clothing and carpenter tools.
The finder had IL taken to the city hall,
where its owner identified it. 1t had been
stolen only u few days ago
Judge Syder sat in judgment upon three
vags and one plain drunk yesterday, and
all were found guilty and given the usual
fines with costs. The prospect for arrests
at o'clock this morning were exceedingly
poor as every man on the streets seemed
to be on his good behavior.
Judge Nash was listening to the argu-
ments on motions yesterday and the docket
will be resumed to-day.

ANNEXATION ALIVE.
The Panhandle Issue not Dead ~ Many
Supposed.

supposed.
Mr.. Z. II. Orcutt, editor of the Palouse
City Boomerang, was seen In Spokane
Falls yesterday by q REVIEW man and in
the course of rambling conversation he
remarked that there seemed to be an
erroneous impression In this city with
reference 10 the status of the proposed an
nexation of the Idaho panhandle to
Washington. He proceeded to relate that
the people of North Idaho
are as much interested in that
subject now as they were before
the passage of the admission act, il not
more so, and are determined to make a
desperate fght for it. Outside of Moscow,
he said, scarcely a man can be found in
Latah county who is opposed to annexa.
alton, while this sentiment exists in the
other countries. Nearly all the agricul.
tural lands in Idaho, at least the best
lands in that territory, are embraced in
this panhandle. The territorial debt is
already burdensome and Is increasing at
a rapid rate. The mines cannot be ex.
pected to last forever as q
source OF revenue, hence in the course Of
time it will become necessary to fall back
upon this rich and rapidly developing
agricultural region for revenue to carry on
the machinery Of the government, terrific
rial or state, as the case may be. The
people of Southern Idaho are painfully
aware of this fact. and are unwilling to
relinquish this strong and reliable arm
upon which they must In future rely to o
great extent for support by taxation. For the
same reason the people of North Idaho
are desirous of cutting loose from that ter.
ritory, and uniting their fortunes with
those of the state of Washington, where
sucn inequalities in resources, revenues,
responsibilities and liabilities do not ex.
ist. Mr.. Orcutt states that an effort will
be made to induce both parties in Wash
ington to incorporate in their platforms an
annexation plank, the same as before,
and send men to congress who are pledged
to this proposition. Real congressman,
representing sovereign state, will have
more influence than territorial delegates
could command. Mr.. Orcult added that
the people Of North Idaho are only waiting
for an opportunity to vote on the annexa-
tion question. He says it would carry by
an overwhelming majority.

render u OF more than ordinary interest,
and although the Spokane public are al {.
ready familiar with the history of the
transactions leading up to the suit brought
by Mr.. Smith to regain his property, and
which has just been decided In his favor,
q brief review OF the whole matter will be
of interest at this time.
city of Spokane Falls, away back In the
seventies, and in 1873 James N. Glover
offered him lot on the corner Of Front
and Mill streets, IL he would build on it,
Mr.. Smith accepted the proposition, but
after erecting the building con.
cluded the town would never amount to
much, and moved away. For several
years past he has resided in Kansas. He
sent money regularly to pay the taxes on
his property here, Fl. K. Allen of this city
acting as his agent.
Last summer Mr.. Allen made the as.
tonishing discovery that the property had
been sold and an invests igation was begun.
The property at hat time was In the
hands Of James Odell, then resident of
this city. from whom 1t was learned that
on May 2last q man representing himself
as X. NJ. Smith had sold the property to
one Charles F. Tuttle for $4,000 and on
May Is Tuttle sold 1t to Odell, who
on May % executed mortgage on
the property in favor OF the Northwestern
u Pacific mortgage company for 81 500.
Up to this time none of the instruments
pertaining to the transfers had been re.
corded. Neither the man who imperson.
ated Smith nor Chas. +. Tuttle could be
found, and although several peo-
pie remembered Tuttle, no one
could remember the man who
made the first transfer under the
name of Smith. The whole affair was
mysterious, and showed some exceedingly
bold and clever "sculdugqery" on the part
Of somebody, presumably Odell In Julyllast
erty with the result above recorded. Odell
is at present somewhere in the East, but
WAS represented at the trial by his at
tOrneys, who claimed that he bought the
property in good faith for 81, 900.

HEAVY DAMAGES.
BenJnmin Davis Gets Judgment fo

Benjnmin Davis Gets Judgment for
$500 AEainst the N. p.
The suit of Benjamin Davis vs.. the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company, for
damages in the sum of $3080, on account
of having been forcibly elected from o
train, which has been on trial in the dis.
trict court for several days. ended yester.
day, the jury awarding Davis damages
cumstances of the case as
stated by the plaintiff, were these: Davis
desired to 60 from Spokane Falls to Che
ney, but when he made an effort to buy a
ticket, found the ticket Office closed. He
got on the train. and when the conductor
asked for his ticket, rendered q silver dol
lar TO pay his fare. The conductor de-
manded Is cents more to make up the re-
bate of 25 cents. Davis then rendered u
fve.dollar gold piece, which the conductor
was unable to change, and he informed
Davis that he would have to get off
at the next Marshall, un-
less he paid his fare. Upon
arriving at Marsh all. Davis purchased a
ticket from that point to Cheney. As the
train pulled out Davis rendered his ticket
and the conductor demanded IS cents
more, being the amount Of the fare from
Spokane TO Marshall. Again Davis ten
dered the IS gold piece. and again the
conductor was unable to change it. The
train was then stopped and Davis was
forcibly elected, resulting, as he claimed,
in serious bodily injury. This is the plain
tiff q side of the case, and on this testimony
the verdict for damages as above stated
was found.

JUDGE NAsH's sUCOEssoE.
A Petition Signed by the Lawyers for
Judge Blake's Appointment.

A Petition signed by the Lawyers for
Judge Blake's Appointments.
Judge Nash's announcement in open
court Wednesday of his intended resiRna-
tion, at once caused considerable specula-
tion as to his probable successor. 1t was
thought that the members Of the bar
would endorse lawyer who would
be satisfactory to all concerned. There
WAS no concerted action in the way of
meeting regarding the appointment, but
it became known that the selection of
Judge Blake would meet the approval of
every member of the city bar. The selec-
tion of successor is not regarded by the
lawyers as proposition calling for the
political sentiment or partisan work,
1t is not doubted that, in view
Of the fact that very large majority OF
lection OF party man would please them
best, but the individuality Of the man &C.
lected and his ability 10 fill the position
will override any political prejudice. Sew.
eral leading attorneys we're visited yester-
day with view of obtaining their prefer
ences.
Judge J. G. Moore was found and stated
his opinion. He said: II do not think
any one will raise an objection to the ap-
pointment Of Judge Blake. He is quail:
dss to % ns AaaeS T'to to sat aSty S ias
splendid gentleman and will meet every
official requirement of the place. He was
selected by number of his friends with
out consideration of his political afili-
atiou."
The opinion of Judge Moore was reiter-
ated by several others, and although all of
the attorneys were not visited it ia believed
that the endorsement given in the petition
for Judge Blakes appointment viii be fa-
vorably acted upon.
Judge Nash says his resignation will be
handed in between now and the May term.
He desires that his resignation shall not
in any way interfere with the regular ju-
dicial business of the district, or that any
county shall be deprived of q term of court.
shall take effect az soon as his successor is
appointed and qualified.
