THE VILLAGE ELECTION,
The Old Board Reelected by Handsome
nai0fitieS.

The annual election for five vii
lage trustees was held yesterday
with two tickets in the field. There
were no issues involved of sufficient
Importance to create any interest
and the election was very tame
affair. A total of 261 votes were
cast, of which 20 were polled by
ladies. Ten applicants were re-
jected on the ground that they had
not resided in the village for 80
days.
Subjoined are the votes for the
several candidates. Messrs. Sweet
and Sherwin being on both tickets
the vote for these candidates
was not segregated.

The total votes cast is very much
below last year when there were
carriages and hacks out to bring
people to the polls. The general
opinion seemed to be that both
tickets were good and that it made
not great deal of difference which
was elected. The moderate amount
OF interest taken in the election
also went to prove that the citi-
zens are well satisfied with the re-
cord made by the old board.

The Raising of Rye.

The statement that there is not
an acre of rye grown on the Re-
servation or Prairie appears scarcely
correct. Will Rice, Postmaster at
Rosetta, Beeman, a locality situa-
ted on Lapwai creek on
the reservation states that he has
raised eighty acres of rye for the
past two years on his quarter sec
ton, and that others in his imme-
diate neighborhood have sown to
this crop. A greater acreage has
already been sown to rye around
Beeman this year, on account of
the good prices obtained for this
crop last year. Jacob Haeberle, a
neighbor of Mr.. Riees' will SOW the
whole of his l60 acres to rye this
year, and will be doubtless sur
prised and pleased to learn of a
local market.

SALMON RIVER STRIKES,

from Wednesday $ Daily.
Spec'al { riespondence to DAILY PRESS
After an unusually long and
hard winter spring has come at
last. The hills are clothed i'm
green once more. The cattle are
beginning to thrive, and the gay
and festive cayuse is able to buck
from now on until winter sets i'm
again. The prospectors have also
arrived and this part of Salmon
river is coming to the front. From
early noon until darkness shrouds
the hills parties of pro-pectors by
twos and threes can be seen i'm
every direction breaking rock.
driving stakes and putting up loca-
ton notices.
Within the past week more than
dozen lodges have been found and
located right around Golf postoffice
on both sides of Race creek. Also
on the east side of the river from
Fiddle creek up for a distance of
five miles, IL number of lodges have
been shown up and located.
A company of Cnur d'Alene
miners are running tunnel on
ledge at Goff's Cove, just above
Higgins ferry.
Messrs. Troxler & Sheppard, of
Lewiston, think they have found a
bonanza in their Lucky jim, on
the point just above Race creek.
1t has also been reported here
that free gold ledges have been
found up the river just above
Shorts bar.
Some locations were made last
winter on Sheep mountain, but
no development work has been
done on any Of them, except the
Admiral Dewey group of three
claims, located by VIM. Short, +.
M. Cooke and j. o. Levander;
they have run an open cut of so
feet and 20 foot tunnel, showing
up large body of oxide ore, from
which a number of assays have
been taken, showing values of from
$50 to 800 per ton in copper and
gold.
Soon as the snow goes off SO that
prospectors can get farther up the
mountain and in to the solid
granite formation, we shall look
for still more important discoveries.
We confidently predict that this
part of Salmon river will make q
mining camp second to none in the
state when climate and other ad-
vantages are taken into considera-
| ton.
The saw mill on Race creek has
more orders for lumber than they
can fill and are rushing day and
night to supply the demand for
lumber.
A general merchandise store and
saloon is in full blast at the end
OF the state wagon road, and pros
pectors and mining men can be
