At the annual village meeting the fol-
lowing officers were elected E. l.. Wells,
moderator; J. M. LeBourveau, clerk;
E. L. Wells, treasurer; G. M. Campbell,
tax collector; S. Eastman, chief OF fire
department S. Eastman, 1st trustee,
G. M. Campbell, I'd trustee, c. J. Bundy,
Sd trustee; E. j. Bodwell, agent; Geo.
ID. Thompson. X. A. Child, II. l.. Parker,
sioner for three Years; w. S. letters,
electric light commissioner for three
years. Voted to raise village tax of
40 per cent; Hydrant tax of 10; to
apply on village debt, 10; and 20, one
hrlf OF this to be set aside for an electric
light sinking fund, and one-half to be
paid for lighting the streets and village.
Electric light bonds to tine amount Of
$1,000 to bear four per cent interest and
not to be sold for less than par will
be issued to meet few remaining bills
incurred in the construction OF the electric
light plant. The article calling Tor an
appropriation tor outdoor band con-
certs aroused some contest, but $3.50
was finally voted for this purpose.
At the village meeting the question
OF renting some OF the surplus power at
the electric light station to the st. Johns
bury Electric Street Railway company,
was brought up and the following prop.
ositlon from the company read: "If the
company furnished a storage battery
system of sufficient power to run the
road for one and one.half hours, they
would pay Sc per year per horse power,
II the storage system was not provided
the company offered Sc so per horse
power TOR all they required up to 800
morse power, bnt il more power was
needed the village must agree to furnish
900 horse power and the company would
pay So so per horse power for all used
over 800 horse power" The price was
considered altogether too low and the
proposition was rejected and laid on the
table. The commissioners have offered
to furnish the railroad shops power as
follows: rs horse power at $40 per
horse power, delivered at the shops, and
to furnish 25 more horse power, if needed,
at same price, to also light the shops at
vi Tor each incandescent light OF 16
candle power, the railroad company to
furnish motors, lamps. etc. The propo-
sition is being iavorably considered and
the trustees were instructed to carry
the same into effect if accepted.
A special village meeting has been
called for next Thursday evening to pro-
vide means for electric line improvements,
etc.

Developing Idaho.

Lewiston, Idaho, bids fair within
the next few Weeks to become the cen
ter of greatest activity IN railroad coi :
struction OF any locality in the United
States. The Northern Pacific has de-
cided to construct road from Butte,
Mont, across Lo Lo Pass, down the
Clearwater to Lewiston and down the
Snake to Ripefia where It will connect
with the O. Z. Il n. Go. Ry. Com
panies have been organized in Port
land and Butte to carry out this b.
enterprise and several corps of en-
gineers are already on the ground
completing the surveys, ana work will
be started from Lewiston along the
Clearwater at an early date, as con
tiactors claim that winter will be
preferable to summer weather for grad.
ing ia the mild climate along the iowel
valley. 1t is claimed that the road t.
be constructed will shorten the \. =
route from Montana to the Paeifi,
Coast some 800 miles and tn at this viii
become the principal freight and pas
senger route te.-Del.amar Nugget.

roads are negotiating for rights-of-way
along Lapwai creek from the mouth IA

that the roads will be parallel for dis

has evidently secured the Garden
gulch route while the N. p. will follow

Caldwell place. These routes place
both roads on the level Of Cold Springs
and Camas prairie. The O. II. h N.
will buila from Lapwai TO Lewiston

river. This line has been surveyed
aud it is part Of the line filed in the

Charged With Cattle Stealing.

w. S. Brockman aud William Rnok
were lodged in jail here "Wednesday
charged with having stolen some cat
tie from an Indian lat June. The
cattle were delivered 10 Do"d, shaw
x Co at the Tainmany ranch. 1t de-
veloped that the cattle had been stolen
f, ON the Indians.
A great deal of pains was taken to
locate the real thieves. 1t was finally
determined that these prisoners were
guilty of abetting the actual thieves II
not of stealing the cattle themselves.
There has been Il great deal of stock
rustling on the reservation aud on the
Salmon river ranges Hundreds of
cattle have dsappeare as If swallowed
up by the CANYONS of the mountains.
1t is believed an organized band of
thieves has been operating throughout
the country. 1t is believed the stock
has been gathered by one set of men
and started over a chosen route TO be
passed from one set of the thieves TO
another until they were beyond the
danger of pursuit The men who are
in custody it is believed will vou hsafe
something of sensation before they
will be sent over the road on indepeud-
ent account.
The Indians have been long suffer
ing of buIdensome losses. They haye
been easy victims in the past years OF
opnlence for the reason that their stock
has roamed ranges unmatched The
carlessness of The indolent owners has
invited the rustlers to the reservations
ranges.
The particular charge on which
Brockman and Rook were arralgned
Yesterday, was he stealing of I3 head
of cattle from Indian Arthur. The
cattle were driven from Idaho county
aud delivered to rhe purchasers in this
county. In the same delivery were
many more cattle which have been
identified as stolen stock. A wholesale
theft was committed by somebody and
these boys are in some degree at least
identified with the crime. However
IT is not generally believed the bead o
the gang has been captured The de
velopments of the trial will revea

Time to Wake Up.

Talk of railroad binding in this
state increases daily, and many Of the
reports are of such character that
they warrant the belief that the COM
ing two years will witness much con
struction. Oae point that has no dou5t
impressed every reader is that the new
line or lines most definitely decided
upon will be of great assistance to
Lewiston.
The construction of the road from
Wallula to Lewiston will give the lat
ter place great impetus, while, if the
road across the state into Montana Il
constructed, Lewiston will gro"
rapidly. The eutire northern part oI
the state will he developed, and Lew
iston is so situated that it cannot fai
