Finch and Clark Act.

LEoNIA, January 24.-Word was
received here this afternoon that
a number of men interested in min
ing claims called on Messrs. Finch
and Clark yesterday in Spokane in
regard to what course they intended
to pursue relative to the jumping
their representative, H. J. Jory,
had commenced. These gentlemen
have promised to relinquish all
claims where it can be shown that
claims properly recorded and staked
have been encroached upon Papers
are being drawn up to that effect
and it is expected will be signed to-
day. From all appearances Messrs.
Finch and Clark intend to act like
gentlemen and are in no way re-
sponsible for Jory's acts.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1896-01-25

which is clearly ours. We have
never engaged in the business of
jumping claims and do not propose
to begin now. We shall visit the
camp as soon as the snow goes off,
ascertain the facts in the case, and
cause Mr.. Jory to relinquish any
illegal right that he may claim
for u.s."

ABSOLUTELY PURE

News reached here last Satur-
day evening of the death of Mrs.
Trumpet, a sister of the Mes RS. and
Misses McRae of this place. The
lady died of consumption. She
visited her relatives here last fall
and spent several weeks with them,
hoping the change of climate would
be beneficial, but the grim destroyer
had too secure a hold and she
gradually grew worse. She returned
to her eastern home, only to linger
a few weeks until death came.
Our people are growing more and
more in the habit of looking to j.
F. Cook, Jr., druggist, for the latest
and best of everything in the drug
line. They sell Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, famous for it's
cures OF bad colds, Group and
whooping cough. When in need of
such medicine give this remedy a
trial and you will be more than
pleased.
Last Thursday was the occasion
of the seventeenth birthday of Miss
Minnie Perkins, and the event was
celebrated by birthday party, at
which the following were present:
Lizzie Mclaughlin, May Sommers,
May Little, Nellie Casey, Nellie
Oily, Merrill Wright, Fred Fry,
Troy Morrow, Edward Little, Law
renee Casey, and Norman Morri-
son.
We are glad to see the trouble
on the Yahk peaceably settled, but
the HERALD desires to warn the
miners to beware of getting their
names to papers that may not be
just what they seem when the final
accounting comes next spring.
We are informed that there will
be a grand ball at the new school
house on Cow Greek, in district
No. 30, next Friday night, to
dedicate the new building.
Capt. B. w. Jones is building a

JUMPING JORY JUMPED
Called Down. by the Men whose
Claims we're Jumped.
LOCAL HAPPENINGS

A1CONAA3 ANnhO, ""is IL. IO
party that left here last Wednesday
to ascertain the truth regarding the
claim-jumping on the Yahk, men
ton of which was made in the last
Issue of the HERALD, returned from
the scene of the trouble Saturday
night. They report that the rumors
concerning the action of H. ]. Jory
in jumping claims, was true. Jory
has jumped nearly every claim in
the vicinity of the Keystone, the
development work on which he is
managing for Finch & Clark, who
have a bond on it.
When the party from this place
arrived at the camp and ascertained
the situation of affairs, they held a
miners meeting. ID. G. Hughes was
appointed chairman and G. H. Bart
lett secretary. A committee of
three consisting of William Lemley,
d. G. Hughes and David Brown
was appointed to wait upon Mr..
Jory, and in as peaceable and AMI
cable manner as possible impress
upon him the injury he was doing
the prospectors and miners of the
camp, and ask him in some manner
to undo the wrong. This was done
to avoid trouble, save disputes and
litigation, which is the sure outcome
of unlawful stalking and jumping.
Mr.. Jory's explanation was not
satisfactory to the committee, it
being that certain claims were not
properly located and that he had
relocated to protect his and his
company's interests.
Another meeting of miners was
held and a committee of three, con-
sisting of d. G. Hughes, M. G.
DorAn and David Brown, was APP
pointed to consult with snessrs.
Finch and Clark and inform them
of the true state of affairs and ask
them to do justice to those whose
property was being unscrupulously
staked by their manager. M. G
Doran was appointed to search the
records at Kalispell. The party
then returned to Leonia, leaving
Mr.. VIM. Lemlev on the ground tt
watch the course of affairs.
There is an ugly feeling agains
Jory among the miners. They sa.
there was no excuse for his actor
whatever. he knew perfectly wei
where the lines run and that tn
claims were properly located am
recorded. They look upon tn
action of Jory as an attempt to bea
them out of their property. The.
say it is clear case of where tn
honest prospector is being put t
. trouble and expense by man VIII
never did a days prospecting i
the camp. They plainly intimat
in some instances that the climat
on the Yahk may become too warn
i even in the dead of winter, to max
it a congenial stopping place fC
i Jory.
WHAT CLARK SAYS.
The Spokane-Revie has int
viewed Mr.. Clark in reference
the actions of Jory, and he e.
pressed himself as follows:
ave had heard of something
the kind. You may say for myse
and Mr.. Finch that if such actiC
has been taken as is here reportC
it will not be countenanced by I
in any form. We only want tn

MIR. w. G. King, manager of
the Standpoint Mercantile Co, was
transacting business in Bonner's
Ferry last Wednesday and made
the HERALD ofic a pleasant call.
Mr.. King, as most of our readers
know, succeeded Mr.. l. We'll as
manager of the Standpoint Mercan-
tile Co., a few months ago. To
those who know Mr.. King it is
needless to say that Sandpoint's
big mercantile house is under an
able and progressive management.
We are informed that the company
expect large increase of business
in the spring. Mr.. King states
that it is the intention to start up
the sawmill and work up the half
million feet of logs they have on
hand. They will carry a full line
of lumber, rough and dressed.
They think of establishing a yard
at this place.
