Newport, Idaho, Moving to Washington.
The Spokane Chronicle of March
14th says:
j. H. Hughes, United States COM
missioner at Republic, has plated
his TOWNSHIP at Newport, on the
Pend d'Oreille river and already
the residents Of the old towneite of
the same name are moving over the
line on to- Mr.. Hughes land. The
new townsite is situated in Wash
ington and the surveyors have only
lately finished their work of plating
the tract. The old TOWNSHIP of
Newport in Idaho is enveloped in
three-cornered law suit and it is a
question whether it is owned by an
Indian, by the settler who purchased
the Indian script or by the mortgage
company which foreclosed the mort
gage. No clear title can be given
to the land and this fact had ten
dency to retard the growth of the
town, which is situated in a very
rich mineral and agricultural dis
trict.
The new town is situated Just
across the state line in Washington
and is building up rapidly.

That bends and sways In yonder lea.
There's beauty in the humblest decd
Disclosing love and charity.
There's honor, wondrOus honor, won,
More than we know-indeed, far more
For avoEy duty nobly done,
Eor every care and trial borne
There's beauty ia the smallest star
That gems the azure sky at night.

That tells Of battle for the right.

That never altogether dies.
