After a race over the turbulent
river or over the rugged mountain
trails, it is an ideal place of peace.
1T is sheltered from the storms
of winter and it is free from the
ordinary cares of the world of bus
mess. When the boats whistle
echoed on the still air that Sun
day morning, it aroused sleeping
nature. The Indians were in
church. They may have thought
of Gabriel's call. At any rate
they poured out of the church
without waiting for the doxology.
After rest of three hours, the
hour of return was announced.
The shadow of the canyon was
upon every countenance. There
was danger in that torrent. 1t
plunged over lodges, swirled around
hidden rocks and beat against
high walls. The power of the cur
rent would crush any boat that
was ever built. But Captain
sary to aid the powerful machin-
cry of the Lewiston by line and
the steam capstan. The boat was
literally lifted over the falls by
the powerful machinery. At one
time the PROV was drawn upon a
hidden rock, but the impetus was
not great enough to damage the
hull. The progress made through
the great canyon was about one
mile an hour. The pretty valley
of the Kamiah was welcome
view. The hills recede from the
river like the sides of a caldron.
The river that displayed SO
much energy below was sleeping
like a lake in the cradle of the val
ley. Kamiah is a haven of rest.
Baughman is man of iron nerve
and skill. His steady hand guild
ed past every danger. The wheel
was reversed to stay the speed of
the current and the boat dropped
safely down the chute, feeling its
way like blind man, and making
only four miles an hour. The re-
turn was make in eight hours, a
distance of ninety miles.
Superintendent Rathbone says
the experiment was success.
The river is practically navigable
to Greer's Ferry, seventy-fve
miles. The transportation prob
lem for the agricultural sections of
the reservation is solved. Above
that point the question is in doubt.
By special craft it may be possible
but it will surely be n hazardous
enterprise.

The possibility of navigation on
the Clearwater has been clearly
demonstrated to everyone by the
actual arrival of the steamer Lew
iston at Kamiah last week, six
miles below Stuart; owing to the
ferry cable being SO low, limited
time and scarcity of wood, they
failed to come to Stuart, but gave
the height of their boat to Felix
Corbett, and "look We leetle out
for next time" Who will be the
first man to erect a warehouse. 1t

rives again.

NEWBERNE THRAsHER.
A Brother of Bart Arrested Sunday at
 Pratt City.

A Brother of Bart Arrested Sunday at
 Pratt City.
 The public was somewhat excited yes terday when the younger brother of Bart Thrasher was placed in Jail. The work of Bart-at least the charges against him-has put this whole section in state of excitement, and to know one by the name has been captured Is a relief.
 Newberne Thrasher, brother to Bart. was arrested near Pratt City yesterday by c. H. Cole and Deputy Sheriff Ball. Thrasher was put In jail in this city. He is wanted in Bibb county on the charge of murder.
 Newberne Thrasher was arrested some months ago in Bibb county on the charge of the murder of a negro and brought to this county for safe-keeping. He was taken back to Bibb county and, it is stat ed, had a preliminary trial and was dis charged. It is said that the grand jury of Bibb county have since found a true bill against him for the alleged crime, and 1t was upon a capias upon that in- dictment that he was arrested. He will be taken to Bibb county to stand trial. MT Cole is one of the posse who slew Elisha Thrasher, another brother of the outlaw and whom, it is stated, Bart has sworn to kill for that reason.

A LETTER FROM BART.
The State Herald Receives a Communication Which Bears His Signature-In Full
 fillment ot a Promise.

About ten nights ago two young men and gave an account of the whereabouts of Bart Thrasher, stating that they had spent the night with Bart when it was reported that he and his pals had been fired upon by deputy sheriffs. The men stated that while the shooting was in the neighborhood of Bart, the parties shot 1t were not Bart and his compan- ions.
 The city editor printed the story for what it was worth, and so stated at the time. He said to the young men al they left. if Bart would write letter over his own signature he would guarantee its publication verbatim ct literatim.
 That is all he asks" remarked one of the party, "and guarantee to give you a letter written by his own hand. I'm a friend of Bart's. Have known him near ly all his life. He has been persecuted, and he told me today to come to the State Herald office and see if they would treat him right, and if they said yes he would write letter himself. I don't think Bart has done right every time but he has been mstrsated, and I am going to see him and tell him you will print his letter for him.
 The city editor of the State Herald mada a note of the foregoing remarks, but was only reminded of them when the following letter was received yesterday. Bart may have written the letter and he lnay nor, but it is published precisely as atCeived.
