sum will have to be charged up
against the property, making a
total of about 1000 that must be
assessed up against the lots to pay
the Indebtedness and the purchase
price. The trustees will go ahead
and purchase the property and then
place a sum against each lot, and
when the claimant pays said sum,
he will get deed for his lot. The
lots will be assessed at from $40 to
$40 each. The eight corner lots on
Main street will be assessed at $40
each; inside lots on Main street, $25;
corner lots on other streets, $25;
inside lots, from $40 to 500.
1t seems apparent that people
ought to have their deeds inside Of
ninety days. Applications for pur-
chase of lots will be received by
Chairman Cook, beginning next
Monday. With titles in Bonner
port and Eaton, Bonner's Ferry is
beginning to get upon a pretty solid
basis, and is in position to take
advantage of any area of prosperity
that comes along.
Bonnerport will start out well,
there being about $500 in the
treasury at the present time which
can be put into street improve
ments, fire protection and other
places where it will come handy.

A NEW G. N, BOAT FOX US
To be Built at Bonner's Ferry
For Kootenai Trade.
A BETTER OUTLOOK

The special train bearing Presi
dent James J. Hill and other Off
Gals of the Great Northern Rail
way was sidetracked here for some
time last Wednesday. Mr.. Hill
took a ride over the spur to Galena
Landing, which point he sized up
with a very critical eye, evidently
with a view to ascei tanning what
wharfage facilities it would be pos
sible to construct there.
The examination of the docks at
Galena Landing by the officials of
the Great Northern gives color to a
report that is in circulation among
the mining men of the SLOGAN to the
effect that the Great Northern ex-
poets to build large transfer boat
at this place this spring for the pur-
pose of transporting broad guage
cars to and from Kaslo. The scheme
as reported is that Great Northern
cars will be brought to Kaslo and
loaded from ore chutes built on the
high ground along the lake front.
The transfer steamer will bring the
cars to Bonner's Ferry where they
will be run from the boat onto the
spur at Galena Landing and sent
to their destination. Awhile there
are features that give color to this
story, the scheme also looks feas-
ible.
The Nelson Tribune says that it
is reported in Kaslo that one of the
mills in st. Paul is now engaged in
rolling steel plates for the construc-
ton of the boat.
The HERALD has predicted all
along that it was only a question of
time until the Great Northern
handled its business with the Brit
ish Kootenai via Bonner's Ferry,
the natural gateway for it to reach
that country. Even Jim Hill can't
do everything in one season, but he
gets there pretty fast just the same.
Should this scheme materialize,
and should Congressman Wilson
get his bill through to establish
government sampling works at this
point, it will put Bonner's Ferry
upon a more solid and permanent
basis. These added to our natural
resources will be sufficient to make
Bonner's Ferry a good, live town
for its size, and, as the wealth in
the hills and valleys tributary are
developed, it will grow in size anc
importance. The possibilities are
almost limitless. 1t will only be {
few short years until you hear mer
speak of Bonner's Ferry as they
now speak of towns that have
sprung into importance in one de
cade-like Spokane, for instance
they will tell you what opportuni
ties presented themselves here, i
they had only had the foresight t.
grasp them.

MORE TOWNSHIP TITLE CLEARED
Title Secured to Bonnerport Through
~. p. Land Co.

That portion of Bonner's Ferry
known as Bonnerport has received
proposition from the Northern
Pacific to deed it the ninety lots of
which the townsite consists for the
sum of 5000. Mr.. ]. F. Cook, Jr.,
chairman of the board of trustees,
received the proposition last We'd
nesday, and it was formally ac-
cepted yesterday. The Northern
Pacific company have acted very
fairly in the matter. The amount
is as low as could be expected.
The town is now in debt about
$500 on title account, trying to
secure title from the government,
in which effort it was unsuccessful,
and 5000 in securing the relinquish-
ment of the Indian allotment. This

company had the pleasure of gath
ering around the whist tables cnce

game until late hour. Mrs. Crane
served her guests with a fine lunch
con at midnight, and during the
intermission therefore the topics of
the day were discussed in highly
entertaining manner, the ladies
adding their brilliancy and wit to
to the discussion. The only topic
settled, we believe, was that the
postmaster was acting contrary to
public sentiment in recommending
to the postal authorities a change in
the name of our postoffice from
Bonner's Ferry to Bonnerport.

The remarks of the Troy Times
last week about a mining PROPOSE
ton near Crossport shows spirit of
cussedness that the people of Troy
ought to repudiate promptly for the
sake of the reputation Of their town.
If Troy is going into the backcap-
ping business, she will find that it
does not pay, and she will only
earn the contempt of mining men
for her pains. Had the property
been near Troy, instead of Bonner's
Ferry, it would have been prated
about as much as the Keystone
on the Yahk, which, according to
the latest test on Keystone rock,
does not assay as high OH an aver
age as the property in question, the
insinuations in the Troy sheet to
the contrary Notwithstanding. The
bigoted stand taken by the Troy
people, as reflected through the
Times, will not help them to unload
their town lots. We shall have
more to say about this matter later.

SOMETHING TO BOOM.

The warm rains and Chinook
winds have taken most of the snow,
and the indications are that we will
have the planting season a month
earlier in the Kootenai than last
year. The early spring and the
light SHOWS in the mountains pre-
clude the possibility of floods in the
valley this year. Verify, this will
be a great year for the ranchers.
We already have a number of real
ranchers in the valley who are doing
their share to make the country
famous. We need more of this
class. and in this connection there is
a splendid opening for the festive
boomer. There is no more fertile
soil in the world than in the KoOte-
mai valley. Fruit growing has been
demonstrated to be a great success.
The market, which is practically a
home market, and in the rich min
ing camps of the British and Ameri-
can Kootenai, is not excelled on the
continent. The climate of the
country is mild and healthful.
There is plenty of Wild land yet to
be taken up, or slightly improved
ranches can be bought cheap from
parties who took them up for a
speculation. This is u favorable
time to attract immigration to the
fertile Kootenai-no other new
country offers such inducements
to those seeking an agricultural
country.
