Mimms is Fired.
ABSOLUTELY PURE

George p. Mimms, Chinese in
spector Of the Spokane district, has
had his official head knocked off by
the government. George was a lit
tie too fly" for the government, and
was mixed up in several bad pri-
vate deals besides. He sat down
to private game of poker one
night and lost couple of hundred
more than he had funds to pay, so
he gave his |. o. U. to his friend,
but afterwards repudiated it, and
the matter went into the courts,
where the scandal became obnox-
ious to his superior officers. 1t is
also suspected that his official record
was not above reproach Mimm's
has always hal it in for Bonner's
Ferry people ever since his brother,
Ed. Mimm's, was caught in the act
of stuffing the ballot box here in
1892, and handled roughly. He
has gone out of his way to poison
the minds of special agents against
certain officials here, and is said to
have had Special Agent Johnson, of
Spokane, completely hoodooed in
this respect. The grand total re-
suit is that Minms is fired, and
Johnson is assigned to another and
inferior job-probably on account
of following Mimms' suggestions
too closely.

THE LATEST SENSATION
A Large Part of Bonner's Ferry
Belongs to Holland.
ALL MAY END WELL,

The regular quarterly townsite
sensation struck Bonner's Ferry
this week. 1t was little early for
the spring sensation, but then all
signs point to an early spring, and
the advanced season probably &C
counts for its appearance at this
time.
A few days ago word was re-
ceived from Washington that the
contest pending there between the
N. P Land Co. and the trustees of
the village of Bonnerport had been
decided in favor of the N. P. Land
Co. and the application of Bonner
port for a government title was
denied. On Wednesday of this
week Bonner's Ferry was visited by
Gen'l Western Land Agent Cooper
and District Land Agent Edwards,
representing the company. The
object of their visit was to look the
situation over and see what the
people proposed to do about it.
From the Bonnerport decision it
becomes evident that the N. P.
Land Co. will get all the land
claimed by it in the townsite
limits of Bonner's Ferry. There is
little or no question about Bonner
port. nor the sixty-six lots in the
town of Eaton. The Wright town
site across the river will probably
find itself in the same category.
The Great Northern Addition has
long been conceded to the N. P. Co.
The consequence of the above
facts will not be serious to Bonner
port, as Mr. Cooper stated that he
would recommend a sum which
will enable the holders of property
in that portion of the town to buy
their lots Of the company at little
more than a nominal figure. In
Eaton the matter is mo1e compli-
Gated. While the main portion OF
the townsite is not effected, yet the
trustees of the town have given
warantee deeds to the holders o.
the sixty-six lots effected; and the
question is, will the town have tt
make these deeds good; and, if so
how? and where is the money t
come from? We should state her,
that the general land Office has de
cided to reject patent to the por
ton of Eaton on the railroad sec
ton. and unless an appeal is taken
will issue the patent to the balanc
of the townsite only.
While the above indicates a gen
/. eral shaking up of title matters, i
also looks like an early settlemen
: of townsite titles, which will b
highly beneficial to the town. i
a short time it is hoped that gen
. eral understanding can be arrive
at.

Bonner's Ferry Will Get Sampling
Works.

The outlook for our getting gov
eminent ampling works at Bon
ner's Ferry is exceedingly bright.
The following, taken from the
Spokesman Review of last Thurs
day, is a fair and impartial state
ment respecting the bill introduced
at this session of congress by Ida
hos member, Hon. Edgar Wilson,
to establish government sampling
works at Bonner's Ferry, Idaho,
Northport, Wash, and Ell Paso,
Texas, to sample lead ores coming
into the United States from forei IN
countries at the ports named, and
at such other ports as may be here
after authorized:
"For fully year it has been
known that the government would
probably erect sampling works at
some port of entry near the inter
national boundary, and only last
fall Collector of Customs Browne Of
Montana and Idaho said bill fol
such purpose would probably be
introduced in congress during the
present session. 1t has occasioneC
no surprise, therefore, that the bill
came up and passed the house, anc
it will no doubt pass the senate
AS all three of the places are ports
or supports of entry, it is only
natural that the sampling works
should be placed there. About (
year ago the ground was looked
over by an agent of the treasury
and it is believed that it was on hi
report that the present bill wa
formulated and presented to con
gress."

HOW IL WENT IN AIKEN.
Interesting Facts Connected with the
Second Primary in Aiken County

| Interesting Facts Connected with the
Second Primary in Aiken County
Aiken Journal and Review
The second primary was the hottest
contested election we have had in
Aiken for many years. The interest
all ccntcrcd in the u. S. Senatorial
contest, and the other candidates wero
almost lost sight Of. The Evans mon
made IL dcad set at Aiken and entered
the fight with the hopc of carrying
the county for Evans by 1000 majority.
This is the figure General Watts
gave to ,a reporter for The Grcenville
Mountainccr, and we suspect his in
formation was obtained from the
Governor himself. Realizing from
the start that they had to hustle to
win, they instituted vigorous cam
palgn and there was no let up until
the polls were closed. Col. John II.
CASTOR and Mr.. u. y. Gunter came
down from Columbia and worked for
Evans. 1t is said dispensary liquor
|iiowcd freely, circulars were distrib-
utcd, the party lash was cracked, and
where II RcfOrmcr was known to have
Il grievance against Evans, strenuous
efforts were mado to reconcile him.
worked with II will and not only sue
ccodcd in holding the Evans mon down,
but actually reduced his majority by 81
votes. Tillman's letter had the effect
on some OF the Reformers that u red
llag has on mad bull, and we heard
number OF men say they would
never vote for Tillman again for his
Interference. Bill Folcy's box, Nc
Tier No. 2, made the best record, poll
ing II votes for Earle and nothing for
Evans; Shultz came next with rs to t,
then Hammond with 81 to If, Silver
ton No. |, so to IS. These are country
boxes, but the heavy Earle vote goes
to show that the boys,' as Governor
! Evans was won't to call them, had been
doing some thinking for themselves.
| GranitcviIlc reversed herself and
showed up in great shape on the Earle
side. Yards also did well. so did
Sleepy Hollow, Hopewcll, Millbrook,
| t.llcntOn, Severn, and last, but not
| asst the Aiken box, whore q great Of
fort was made to reduce Earle's ma
| jOrity, but with little success.
The fight was short, sharp and de-
cisivc. There is u general acquies-
ccnco in the result and SO far tas we
know no bad feelings.
