The ranchers who reach town
over the Kootenai road have been
doing a great deal of work on the
big hill just above town. They
have been making new grade,
giving uniform grade to the road
and cutting out the steep pitches,
They have done work equivalent to
that of two men and a team for 80
days and still require labor equi va
lent to two men and team for about
9 days to complete the job. The
ranchers very properly feel that the
town people ought to help out in this
matter, and in this they are un-
doubtedly right. They have built
a fine road so far as they have gone.
The town should take the matter
up now and complete the job. We
can not afford not to meet the
ranchers part way on this
proposition.

Wagon Road to Port Hill.

Farmer Brown is in town today,
having completed the work of con-
structing a wagon road from Bon
ner's Ferry to Mission Greek, on
the Port Hill road. For this work
the county, through Commissioner
Dishman, has put up 5000 of the
expense, while citizens of Bonner's
Ferry contributed $50.
On the other half of the road
from Mission Greek to Port Hill,
the county gives $3.50 for the road
and $50 for the Mission Greek
bridge. That half of the road is
nearly completed also, there being
a gap of only about a mile, next to
Mission Greek, to complete.
This will give wagon road from
Port Hill to Bonner's Ferry,a great
necessity. Tea ms will be able tc
haul good loads over the new road,
but like any new road, there is
still room for improvement. We
are thankful for any kind of a road
to start with.

BABYS SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofula Sores.
cat the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted a physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. / also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. S. S. WRorEN, Farming

her coming and going-between her ar

TO STOP TRAIN ROBBERS.

Thirty trains held up last year.
That's a pretty record for civilized
country like the United States.
In the last eighteen years 21S trains
were held up and 145 passengers and
trainmen shot. of whom seventy eight
were killed In Mexico last year there
was just one attempt to hold up a
train, and that was unsuccessful
Why this immunity in the Southern
Republic? Because interference with Il
train is there made punishable with
death Train robbers and wreckers in
our own country have little fear of
State laws. When they cross the bOun-
Diary line they are beyond reach Of
State officials, and often make good
their escape before other authority can
be invoked.
IL the crimes referred to were
brought under Federal jurisdiction the
criminals could be pursued by United
States marshals or other officials freed
from present delays and hinderances.

come as safe as il is in Mexico. New

ing Manager Meares's refusal to further

his shows:
Ny Dear ''Critic. The independent
way in which you write up h the
