Court House Proposition.

Hamilton, Dec. 14.-As will be noted
in the proceedings of the board of
county commissioners, the qualified
voters of Ravalli county will be called
upon, next February, to vote upon the
proposition Of issuing bonds to the
amount of $4,000 for the purpose of
building court house for the county.
This action was taken by the board
partly because Of the general demand
from all sections of the county for the
erection of suitable county buildings in
the place of renting, and partly because
of the liberal offer of the Townsite
company which offered, in case the
people would decide to build a 100000
court house, to donate either a block
of ground on the north side of Main
street, near the north side school house,
or the half block on South Third street,
back of the school house. 1t is alto
gether likely that the proposition will
carry, as the ground will be clear do
nation of $4,000, and the amount now
being paid for rent for the several
county offices and court room is much
larger than the interest on the 100000
will be. 1t is said that if a favorable
decision is given at the polls the board
will favor the whole block site.

lack From Snokane.

Missoula, Dec. 1S.-James A Walsh
has returned from short trip to Spo-
kane, where he went to find a place to
locate his family. He says that Spo-
houses are a scarce article. He was
fortunate in securing comfortable
home for his family and as soon as he
completes his business affairs in Mis-
soula will leave for Spokane. Mr.
Walsh says that his brothers report
business at Republic as being on the
increase and that they are working
day and night to fill lumber orders. The
camp is growing fast, and if the mines
there continue to produce as they are
doing now, Republic will be one of the
largest mining camps in Washington.
He will not take his family to Republic
until some time next spring. Mr.. Walsh
expects to have his affairs here closed
up in a few days, when he will leave
for his new home.

canvassed the taxpayers and asked
them to contribute the amount that
