THE RECOUNT ELSEWHERE.

Kansas Clty's Estimate Was Very Much
Reduced.
The rivalry between the thriving cities of
St. Paul and Minneapolis eliminated in a
big row between them while the census was
being taken in those places. It created
very bitter feeling among the inhabitants
of both towns and the lie was given direct
good many times But all this neighbor-
ly warfare has about guieted down now and
the two lusty young cities are undergoing a
recount The agent of the government who
is now in this city had charge of some spe-
cial work at Buffalo, N. Y. When the re-
count was ordered for Minneapolis and St.
Paul he was sent there to assist in making
final count, which should put an end to
the census trouble there. After that count is
completed Uncle Sam will not count
any people in those towns for ten years to
come. Portland is also having another
count under special government supervision
which will be the last one she will get for
another ten years. Perhaps the most dis
appointed town in the country is Kansas
City. The people of that enterprisinR
place commenced to talk about the size of
her population just about the time that the
came round. The average
figures given were 100000. but all that the
could find were 1874 600. These
are the official figures no matter how bad
Kansas City may feel about it and they are
final.

"And a cigar she got, black and strong enough
to kill a horse but she seemed to enjoy it
nightly. One thing that particularly struck
me was the manner in which the cowboys dress.
They will purchase 'Stetson' sombrero at
cost of from $25 to 500, and wear boots of the
finest quality of leather, and complete their
costume by the addition of ninety-five-c cent
suit of blue jeans.
"Naturally one would think, with so many law
less and reckless men gathered together in
community where no government is recognized
but that of the revolver, that honesty would be
below par and that thieving and robbing would
be common. But such is not the case. A man
could lay 81, 900 in the middle of street, leave
it, come back, and find it in the same place.
Men frequently rise from their seats at the
gambling tables, leaving hundreds of dollars
behind them, and probably not return until
hours afterward, and find the money safe. Per-
haps this is not due to the fact that they are all
honest men, but because a man who lays his
hands with evil intentions on another's property
would be filled with many holes as there are
in porous plaster. Theving is considered the
greatest crime with them.
''There is little known" the gentleman con-
tnued, 'of the great oil and coal fields situated
in the eastern counties of Wyoming. When in
time they are developed enough petroleum and
coal will be taken from them to supply the
world. Why, coal actually crops out from the
earth in places in huge bowlders while oil lies
in small pools where it has oozed out of the
ground. Besides these there are many other
valuable minerals, such as gold, silver, and iron.
Already there have been four or five oil der
ricks erected, but the oil in the wells is covered
with heads and not allowed to flow, as there is
no transportation at present"

Mr. Summers is out from
Elk City and reports several
rich strikes in the old camp
this summer. Two men, named
Smith and Swenson, have
struck a ten inch free-gold
bearing quartz vein on Red
River, that is the richest gold
quartz ever found there. A
C9ur d'Alene miner, named
Nelson, has also struck a fine
galena ledge in the same neigh

himself, has also located a large
vein of the same mineral. The
of getting a wagon

will have to be lnet in the near

Il GrOtCinO Metropolis.

UranSeVllle Is growing, anC
it is growing not merely in the
actual sense that a large mum
Der of new buildings are going
up, but in the further sense
that more and more people are
all the time identifying them
selves with the future prosper.
ity of the town by buying pro.
perty here. Some of these in
vestors are men of wealth and
influence, and if a timely word
is needed to advance the in
terests of the town, they may
be relied upon to say it.
AS an illustration of the de-
mand for Grangeville real es-
tate we point to the fact that
only five lots are unsold of
George Schmadeka's large ad
dition to the town which was
put on the market a year ago.
He has besides sold lots on
land not yet surveyed, and the
demand for lots is so great that
he has decided to lay out a
second addition.
The heirs ofthe Cunningham
estate are also preparing to
plat their property on the north
edge of town, where the new
public school building is being
built. This will make valua-
BILE residence property.
There is no boom here, and
none is wanted. But the peo-
pie are not slow to perceive
that town like Grangeville,
surrounded by such a large
area of the richest agricultural
lands in America, and with a
large and growing mountain
trade, is bound to grow into
greater prominence Some of
you who read this believe that
"Grangville will never amount
to much,' who, in a very few
years more will be hiring some
body to kick you all over the
Prairie because of the oppor-
tunities you are even now re-
fuslng to get in on the ground
floor and buy lots while they
are within the reach Of all.
We are not booming Grang-
vile, but we do want to see
our subscribers, neighbors and
friends-the people who are
living on Camas Prairie-par-
ticipate in the prosperity they
have themselves created. Fif-
teen years of actual experience
and close observation of from
tier development has convinced
US that it is impossible for a
man to- lose money by invest
lng in these frontier or back
woods trading posts. We re-
member when Baker City and
Pendleton and Spokane Falls
were smaller than Grangevil,e
is to-day, and neither OF them
had-or has to-day-so much
good country directly tributa-
ry to it as Grangeville. With
the same facilities of railroad
development in this great
Clearwater basin, the growth
Of Grangeville and the country
round it will be equally sur
and other towns, now
lnthought of, will participate
II the growth and add to the
comfort and general prosperity
ol the whole community.
