The Idaho Wool Growers

The Idaho Wool Growers as
sociation has decided to test the
validity of the law prohibiting the
taking of sheep within two miles
of q farm house or residence. The
President of the association claims
that he has a million dollars to
fight the case, and that it will be
taken up to the supreme court of
the United States. There is an
irrepressible conflict between the
sheep growers and cattle men.
The ranges of southern Idaho
have been totally destroyed by
sheep and they are doing no good
in this section.

We are advised from reliable
sources that the Northern Pacific
officials con template new sched-
ule for the trains running on the
Clearwater Short Line, whereby
connection with the Spokane
trains will be made at North lap
wal, and a through one-day service
from Spokane to Sites inaugurated
in the very near future. The
change will be welcome to all the
people of the Clearwater country,
who have long been sick of the
