Told in The Teller.


Lewiston, where they VIII hereafter
reside.
A prominent visitor was heard to re-
mark the other day: "Charminy rivers, |
charming scenery, charming homes,
charming hdies;--by jove, Lewiston
is charming town"
{. Woods, ex-sherih of Idaho county
and prominent citizen ofIamas Pra- |
irie, was in Lewiston Monday, on his
way home. He has been attending the
Federal court at Moscow.
While other towns are just srec,lper-
atiug from the disastrous financial
panic, Lewiston is experiencing a
building boom. What town can pre-
sent better evidences of substantially .
f.. p. Hanalord, the Denver townsite
man, passed through Lewiston Sunday
on business trip to Spokane. He still
contends that Denver is the 'hub' or
the Prairie and future trade mart of
that great empire.
'never talk of the weaknesses in an
others character, but who utilize most
of their time telling what some one
else has said. He or she is the most
treacherous of scandal mongers.
The rivers are now at an exception
ally low stage of water, and the trans
portatlon company is using all basic to
remove the large crop of this section
before the heavy draughts will he com
PEELED to tie up.
Lewiston should have packing
house. 1t is the natural trade mart of
the Clearwater country, and the pa
tronage would maintain large pack
cry. Capital will encourage the propo-
sition; now let our citizens show little
enterprise.
Harry Stone, of ColtaX, with large
stable Of horses, has just arrived
from the Montana circuit, and will
winter his string in Lewiston. He has
with HIM Johnny Knifong's trotter,
AlmaX, who established II mark of 2:2O
this season, in Montana.
The arc lights will be tested by Mr.. |
Smith next week. 1t is expected that
the city will purchase sufficient mum.
Der to light Main and several impor-
tant side streets, rs the improved SER
vice can be secured at yerv slight |
figure over that paid for the present
system.
The report of the last Indian allot-
ment was telegraphed to Washington
last Thursday afternoon. An express
sion from the department regarding its
disposition rs to The opening of the res
serve should be received this week.
The best available authority states that
it will be opened without delay this
fail.
The ''Newer Lewiston" is II name
applied to the depot grounds, at the
foot of Third and Fifth streets. The
large fiat is dotted with tents and light
giving to it the appearance
of thriving little village. The resi-
dents of. this district state they are To-
Gated there simply awaiting the OPEN
ing Of the reservation.
The Moscow Mirror, of last week,
has the following to say of our Lewis
ton friends, who were in attendance on
the recent term of the Federal court at
Moscow: Geo. Lake and Ted Smith
came up from Lewiston Wednesday
aud brought Fred Manning with them
to he examined by the courts i'm regard
to the free ferry, which he imagines he
Is running across She Clearwater river.
We are not certain as to which of the
boys has the free ferry craze. Manning
says 1t Is Lake and Lake says it Is Man
ming, and Smith has them both in
charge, while Fhelix Warren is keep
ing close watch on the trio."
Those who are qualified to make Il
correct estimate, are very enthusiastic
over the outlook tor the future wine
product of the Clearwater valley. To
produce wine without doc, oring to reg.
uate the sugar and the acids, the grape,
as well as the conditions of climate,
must he almost perfect. There are only
limited belts i'm the Eur1 pean wine
districts where the fresh juice of the
grape contains SO nearly the correct
properties as is the case in this valley,
and in California, a> well as other wine
countries, where the standard is APP.
proximately correct in the first stages,
the conditions of climate do not MAIN
tain the proportions in the the process
of fermentation without the use OF
plaster" II has been great surprise
to experienced wine makers to discover
that no doctoring is required TO make
perfect wine from the pure juice of our
grapes. In another column We pub
fish an extract on this slhject from
Spokane paper.
