being quoted over all lines of rail-

Dear Sir:-Rec'd your letter the 18th
inst. We have had no snow till after
Christmas and the cattle have been
able to live out, and are all IN good
condition. 1t Is showing now. That
Is what we want; have about inches
now. The old settlers say when we
have lots OF snow it means good crop
the coming season. It never drifts
here. The weather is calm and bright.
We do not have to dress any heavier
than in Illinois, and the horses never
SILVER with the cold when we take
them from the warm stables, as they
do In Illinois. It has not frozen in the
stable this winter. The most Of the
stock runs out, but there is no need
Of 1t, for timber is plentiful and there
Is no expense to build good stables and
houses. We have good log houses and
they are very warm. Two men can
put up house 16x24 in two days.
There are good rails for fences. We
live ten miles from the coal district,
the price being from so cents up to
$500. The land is very rich, loamy
soil, from inches to several feet in
depth; the hills have the deepest. 1t

there are plenty Of small lakes where
the cattle can get good water. The
cattle got out Of grass last year, about
the middle of April, and run at large;
unless in charge of herdsman, we
have to fence against them. Wheat
goes from IS to GO bushels per acre,
oats so to 80. very often over hum
dred. As to potatoes, neighbor
planted bushels and dug 226 bushels
and no bugs Roots of all kinds do

and lots Of red raspberries, black and
red currants, and gooseberries, where
the fire has not burnt them. Cattle

some for 8 months and have got only

can work without grain, but are better

Is to break in the spring and work it.

A Disastrous Fire.

A disasterous fire occ irred at
this place last Tuesday evenin g, de-
stroying the room dwelling be-
longing to Mr.. j. E. Colwell. TIE
fire caught from defective hue,
and had made such Roadway before
discovered that 1T was useless to
make any attempt to stay the fam
es. Only Mrs, Colwell, her 70
year old daughter, Edith, and her
younges t child, Gladys, were at
home at the time, Hearing an un-
usual sound, Mrs. Colwell sent
Edith to see what was the cause,
and stepping out, she discovered
flames bursting from the PIPER
Windows. They gave the alarm, but
the building standing somewhat
alone, it was difficult to attract at
tention. BY the time assistance
arrived there was only time to save
the parlor furniture and one bed
room set, so quickly did the
flames spread and devodr the
building. But few other articles
were saved. All their clothing was
destroyed, except what they wore.
In less than half an hour the build
ing was burned to the ground. The
loss is a most serious one to the
family. Their home had just been
finished inside and represented a
large expenditure of money and
labor, much of the labor having
been done by themselves, making
the place all the more dear to them.
MIR. Colwell was away at the
time, being somewhere in Washing
ton canvassing for school furnish
ing house.
With true Western spirit, the
citizens of Boomers Ferry subscribed
"a fund of about 800 for the unfor-
tunate family, while the Ladies
Aid Society, assisted by other ladies
of the town, met aud made up a
supply of clothing and bedding for
them.

EP|TOME OF The WEEK
Sharpers in the Land Working
Timber Land Fraud.
LOCAL NEWS ITEMS
Jefferies, the California Boy. Wins the
Prise F ght in the Last Round.

1t is reported that a couple of
sharpers have been operating ex-
tepsively and successfully in this
county and in Flathead county,
Montana, and have succeeded in
roping in suckers to the tune of
several hundred dollars. They
have been working a timber land
racket. They tell the settlers that
they rep esent a big eastern syndi-
cate; that they want to buy timber
land and that if the settler will
file on a quarter section under the
stone and timer act, they will
furnish money to Prove up on, and
then buy his claim for 1900 in
addition. 1t is tempting morsel,
but here is the fraud-the settler
must pay $500 for being put on
to the location. The shark gets
the $25, and after working the
scheme to the danger line, departs
as mysteriously as he came. 1t
is strange that people will bite at
such transparent fraud, because
railroad land adjacent of as good
quality can be bought, il many
instances. for 80 cents per acre.
A special agent of the govern
ment who has looked this matter
up found the facts as above stated
At Kalispell he visited the land
office at time set for number of
victims to appear and make final
proof, but none appeared-they had
evidently taken a tumble to the
fraud practiced upon them.
1t is needless to say that when
the settler comes to prove up, the
representative of the wealth GU
syndicate is conspicuous by his abb
sence, the settler has to let his claim
slide and has nothtpg to profit ex-
cept experience being out $25 to
the sharper, the cost for publishing
his notice, and the expense of filing
and trip to the land office.
