Last week State Land Agent Fem
sold State school lands near Moscow,
over in Latah county. The prices
realized demonstrate that land is
worth money in North Idaho. Open

until the last block was up, which
they ran $3.50 above its appraised
value.

Colorado, bought heavily. NJ. NJ.

city, pad over $4,000 for a quar- er
section adjoining bis farm. A section
twenty miles east Of Moscow aid three

A LAND DEAL.

After Ward left another of his transac-
tions came to light which for bolduess and
audacity equals his cattle trade. He met
an Italian who wanted to buy a small farm
near Fort Worth on which to raise fruit
and vegetables Ward said he had Just such
place as would suit the man, and took him
out into the country aud showed him farm
belonging to a gentleman named Farmer.
The property suited the Italian and Il
bargain made. A deed was made out and
signed by Ward, who received, so it is said,
$3.50 in money from the Italian, who at once
went to work setting out fruit trees en- the
place. Renters occupied the place at
the time and when the italian told them
that he had purchased the place they weut
to see Farmer about 1t and to ask why he
would sell the place and put them out with
out any notice being given. This was all
news to Farmer, and an Investigation was
made, which resulted in the above facts
coming out. Where Ward is no one knows,
but one Of tho leading banks and an Italian
in the city would like for him to come for
ward and explain.
