HARVEST SUPPER.

The ladies Of the South Paris Congre-
gstionsl Church are planning 10 Guido
themselves. This seems impossible, At
least To me. but such IL evidently the
case. For yesrs they have proviied
harvest suppers. They have been de-
licious, going TO the right spot. IL il
hardly conceivable that they could be
better, but their spirit seems to say {:
We have never done so well that we
could not do better" They have pro-
videi substantials 10 the past. They are
going 20 do the same this year. They
hSve tlckled the palste with pie Snd
cake of well-nigh every variety, there
will be 40 failure IN this direction, in
fac-. IL L. quietly understood. owing 20
the craving Of one of the pastors, not be
longing 20 the Baptist or Methodist de-
nomination, that there will be an unusu-
ally large supply OF cream pies. IL Is
hardly worth while 70 speak OF fragrant
coffAe and cream, and many other deli
cscies ss doughuuts and cheese, etc. etc.
And this does not complete the l't OF
good things. nor do they stop at reaching
the heart through the Inner, man. There

the last issue for about $4,000, was

Kootenai County Republican. (Rathdrum, Idaho) 1899-1903, 1900-09-07

The ftisionis,s have not only at
tempted to Goebelize kootenai county
by refusing to give the republicans
presentation on the election boards
in several precincts, but have also at
tempted other methods which are at
least equally if not far more unjust
and dishonorable. An apt illustration
of one Of these methods is furnished
in Boundary precinct. This is a re-
publican precinct and the fusionists
know it, and their instrument for the
practice of disrcputable methods is a
man named Danielson who. in the es-
timation of our fusion commissioners.
possesses excellent qualifications for
the position of registrar. This man
remained al his post Of duty lust long
enough to give the fusonists in that
precinct AN opportunity to register.
When this was accomplished he sud-
denly left for the mountains and has
not since been heard from or seen, and
those republicans who had not regis
tered before this fusion cmissary was
seized with the mountain fever are
wondering about the limit of fusion
power in kontcnai county and wheth-
~ the leaders have not been schooled
IN North Carolina politics. These re-
publicans may he dsfranchised
through fusion trickery, but this and
similar wrongs will be efrectualy
righted by the people of Kootenai
county on November 9th.

EXCURSION ON LAKE PEND O'REILLI

standpoint Lumber Companys New Steam
err Pend Otseiile. Made the Trip sunday.
The Standpoint Lumber company
gave an excursion on their new steam
cr, Pend O'Reille, from Standpoint to
Lakeview and return, Sunday. The
steamer left the pier about II. a. m.
and returned about $50 y. m. The
run from Standpoint to I.akeyiew and
return is about so miles. Including
stoppages at Hope, going and coming,
Hlacktail and Lakeyiew the trip was
made in the remarkably short time of
10 hours. About leo people boarded
the steamer at Standpoint and about
10 more were picked up at Hope. The
day was all that could be desired for a
pleasure trip, and he waters of Lake
Pend O'Reille were never more calm
and peaceful than on sunday.
The most vivid Imagination could
be exhausted in describing the beauti-
ful scenery that the eve encounters
along the shores of Lake Pend o.
Relic, and particularly the upper end:
and the writer is sorry that lack of
space forbids dwelling upon this
phase OF the trip. That every person
who went on the excursion was de-
lighted with tle days recreation: that
great credit is due the manager of the
standpoint Lumber company, Mr.. w.
{. King, Tor the Judgment and skill
he displayed in arranging the details
OF the trip; that the thanks of the 100
or more persons, who enjoyed the hos
