Superintendent Russell went up the
Occur d'Alene to-day to look over the
track and prepare for the spring floods.
1t is still in order to clean out your
alleys and back yards. The backward
spring is no excuse for hardness in this
respect.
Mssoula is always in line. The min
ing stock fever has been grated into
her system and she is getting rich in
stocks now.
The city COW is still at large. But
what could be expected of an admins
tration that will infiict such a spring as
this upon a community?
The motto of the local wou!d-be APP
pointee is: IT would rather be door
keeper in the administration of Webster
than to stand pat for the silver plat
form"
Rev. +. F. Grimm, who has been as
sisting Rev. Stivers of the Christian
church during the last week with the
revival services. left to-day for his
home at Hamilton.
Billy Kelly has returned from the
coast with a pleasant smile that is Gug-
gestive that there may be some truth in
the reports that he was shot by Cupid
while he was in California.
Miss Elizabeth Bancroft is in the city,
guest of Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Lynch.
Miss Bancroft is acting financial secre-
tary of the Women's Home Missionary
society of the NJ. E. church.
These are the days when the men who
voted for Mckinley in Missouia are
righteously wroth. They have been
scooped by the men who posed as silver
men and who, yet ran this spring on a
gold platform.
Somebody has jobbed Charlie Hail.
That is certain. He is in Philipsburg
on business and it was not fair to spring
such a letter while he is away. That
letter was worthy of the Alleen Sale
correspondence.
Speaking of office, there are several
vacancies in the letter carrier service
that might serve as consolation prizes
for those who are to be disappointed in
the Pie stakes. But, then, there is still
Tom Carter and the census budget
Spring is slow in coming, but it is
not half as aggravatng as Tom Car
ter's announced arrival His delay is
worrying the boys considerably. Some
of them will have TO get their trousers
creased a second time unless he gets
here soon.
Among the assurances of spring that
may be accepted as reasonably certain
is the return of Dan Ross voice He
has been talking through quinine, etc,
for several days, but his dulcet tones
are once more clear and the public is
encouraged.
The Hilarity club has decided to take
its annual pilgrimage through the Bit
ter Root valley this year. When the
iaunt is ended the famous retreat of the
NeZ Perces through the valley will be
doubly discounted. Old Chief Joseph
was all right, but the Hilarity boys can
give him some points.
There has been some speculation as to
what Alex belong will do, now that he
has sold the ranch that he has occupied
| for so many years. He settled the ques-
| ton to-day by the announcement that
he will ''buy a place in town for the old
lady and then go down to the coast,
where l can get some CLAIMS and fish"
But, speaking seriously, does the ad-
ministration think that it is the right
thing to continue this cold weather any
longer, just because not everybody
wanted to indorse the Mckinley Alger
administration? rheumatism and mel
ancholia and lots of other troubles are
rife as the result of the continued cold,
