Gle arWater.

As we see great deal in praise
OF other little towns springing up,
we wish to say just a few words
about our village. 1t is surround
ed by very fertile farms on which
the finest timothy in the world
grows almost spontaneously. All
kinds Of cereals, vegetables, aud
fruits OF all kinds are grown here
70 perfection. These farms are
peopled by industrious, wcll-edu-
Gated, refined people from almost
every state in the Union. We
have two saw mills. A few years
ago it was thought a thresher could
never be brought in here, but now
there are three, with binders and
other machinery necessary to har-
vest crops.
We have two expert gardeners,
Isaac Gunter and Aug. Newman,
who will garden on a big scale
this spring. J. W. Lytle and B.
G. Cowley also raise quantities of
fine vegetables for mountain mar
kets.
We have men of brains and in
tellect capable of competing with
those of any locality. We have
church services three Sundays in
the month; also good school with
pupils as bright as found anywhere
The Macabees, newly organic
ed lodge here, expect to build a
hall and go upward as their number
increases. We also have fine
doctor in the person of DIR. Busey,
who receives letters from the
mountains, ON Camas prairie
and other places asking advice.
He treated Arthur Clark's hand
that was badly smashed with an
AK, and treated it SO skillfully that
it is nearly recovered. A little
boy was brought here from Stuart
with his elbow pulled out of socket
and bones fractured; the doctor
fixed it and it was taken back in a
comfortable condition.
Our town also has a frst-class
barber, who can be found next door
to the post Office. We also have a
good restaurant to accommodate
travellers, kept by Miss Sarah
Brown and brother. Allen Steph-
ems has a stock of groceries where
packers may get supplies. Steph-
ems has been here several years and
has proven himself an honest, fair
dealer. Harry Baker. a genuine
good carpenter, is always ready to
do a job Of work on short notice.
Mrs. Addie Lister keeps in the
post office building a good and
fresh assortment Of candies. nuts,
and all accessories for lunch.

From the Seat Of War.

Under date Of February s, Jesse
L. Rains writes to his mother
from Manila as follows:
Saturday night the trouble with
the insurgents began in earnest.
Everything is on war basis now,
and the hospital has little time for
anything except tending to the
wounded. The most Of the fighting
was done on Sunday morning, when
the insurgents were driven back
from around Manila. We who
have to stay in the Office and
work know little except what we
hear, and the reports conflict so
with each other that we are slow t,
believe any of them. We are
pretty certain that the insurgcnt-
are driven back from 5 to 10 miles
in all directions from Manila, and
that between 200 and 1000 ma
tives were killed, with 5000 or
1000 wounded. On our side about
90 have been killed aud 100 wound
ed.
"The Idaho regiment was one of
the first to 60 out Saturday night
and they are still fighting. Their
loss has been slight. Major Nc
Conville was killed and two or
three men of Co. B. Fred Beck
was shot through the thigh, bad
wound, though we think he will
recover. So far Co d. has got
through without II scratch.
Gust now there is report that
some of the regulars have arrived.
think we will have to stay now
until this trouble is settled, which
will not be long at the rate they
have been killing the insurgents.
Don't worry about us, for we will
be back in the spring"

Experienced Freighters.

Clayton Miller of the Buffal,
Hump syndicate in the course Of
conversation yesterday said:
.There is a fine opening here fol
freighter who understands his
business. 1t wants man with
grit, capital and the proper equip
ment. Such u man would MAKE
money.
"Onr companies would rather
pay twice the present prices to II
man we knew we could rely upon,
who we felt assured would gpi
through, and who was responsible
for the care of the goods under hi,
charge. So would many other
parties who have stuff that must
be hauled.
'"rhese 'Palousers' that are haul
ing freight at the present moment
do the best they eau, but they dc
not stay with the business, and
they have not got the proper out
hit. Moreover, as soon as they get
eight dollars ahead they quit
"What is wanted is man ac-
customed to hauling heavy freight
and caring for it. He must have
other men under him, big heavy
teams, wagons, sleds and all the
appliances requisite. Such man
would prove a sure winner"

Two Sets of Judges.

One OF the laws enacted by the
legislature will prove boon on
election day. 1t provides for two
sets OF judges in precincts where
over loo Votes are polled, and one
set viii begin to count the ballots
after fifty voters have deposited
their tickets. The object is to ia
cilitate the count of the vote in
general elections. For years past
the result III almost every state in
the Union has been known hours
before the count in Idaho had been
completed. Through the long
hours of the first night judges and
clerks have waded sleepily through
the ballots and in many of the
larger precincts the following night
would find them still at it. Not
only will the new law facilitate the
count, but it will minimize the
sibili,y of mistakes, which are
bound to be frequent when brains
are dulled from lack of rest. The
experience Of the clerks in a large
precinct like Grangeville at the
late election shows the necessity of
such a law, for the result of the
precinct vote was not known here
until nearly noon of the day after
election. The new law, of course.
makes it a felony for any of the
Judges 10 disclose any information
how the vote is going until the
entire precinct vote has been can
vassed.

Chairman Orchard Talks.

Referring to Mr.. Clayton Miller's
suggestions regarding the agitation
of the forest reserve question, Sec
rotary Orchard Of the board OF
trade said this morning:
1.-THE board forwarded reso-
lutions to Senator Shoup
affecting this question, stat
ing fully the necessity Of free
ing the great mineral belt now in
the course of development from
the restrictions of the forest re-
serve regulations.
"At the last meeting of the
board letter was read from the
senator in which he stated his
doubts as to whether the change
could be effected. On the other
hand Senator Heitfield wrote ex-
pressing his belief that a modifica-
ton of existing boundaries could
be obtained if the proper represen-
tations were made to the secretary
OF the interior.
"With regard to the Grangeville
cutoff road to the Hump, we can
not take action until the next
meeting. The intention j., how
ever, to have good permanent
road and to keep it open all the
year round.
~ would like to say, however, that
ut any time that any of these
gentlemen Of the various Buffalo
Hump companies desire to bring
matters before the board, we would
call special meeting and be glad
to hear any suggestions they have t.
make, and promptly act upon
them where possible

Firoman'S Ball.

The various committees having
in hand the arrangements for the
fireman's ball met last night at the
Jersey house.
The object of the meeting was to
bring each of the committees to a
thorough understanding of their
various duties. The committee on
decoration gave assurance that the
hall would be thing Of beauty by
the time they got through with it.
1t was the sense of the meeting
that steps should be taken to pre-
vent spectators from numbering
the hall and spelling the enjoyment
of those who paid to participate in
the dance. It was unanimously
decided that spectators should be
charged at least 81 admission and
probably more. Children will not
be admitted at any price.

LOVELY LOCATION FOR LOTS.
Lewiston Addition Soon on the Market
The SherWin Sales.

Mayor Wax who, with Mr..
Heppner. owns the Sherwin addi-
ton, is finding this tract a verita-
bic gold mine. Within the last
few days he has sold several lots to
Spokane spectators, and number
to local parties. Among recent
purchasers may be mentioned Mr.
Wiltse, who has purchased coup
lie, and ID. Greenwalt, who bought
a like number. James Witt is
another buyer.
Back of the Sherwin addition is
the Lewiston addition. The trust
ees of this property, w. w. Brown,
A. f. Parker and w. Strinheiser.
will shortly place the tract upon
the market. 1t was plated some
five years ago. East of the Sher-
win Il Lewiston addition is Idaho
avenue, Il hundred feet wide. This
will make a splendid thoroughfare.
The Lewiston tract comprises
eighty acres. The blocks are 300 feet
square, containing ~ lots each,
5Oxl42, with a l6-foot alley be-
tween eacI lot. Under its
franchise the water company will
extend it's main to this addition AZ
soon as the first building goes NJ
The Lewiston addition. like the
Sherwin, is situated immediatlv
above aud back Of the school house
on rising ground. This iusures
good drainage. The blocks run
east and west, so that building
with their front facing on Main
street will have thcis backs to the
southwest, the direction from
which all the cold winds and snow
storms come in this section.
There is little doubt but HAT
these two additions are destined to
become the great residence quarter
of Grangeville. a beautiful view
of the surrounding country is OBJ
tanned by reason of its elevation.
and the close proximity to The
school makes these si;e2 particulai
ly favorable for families.
