COAL IN IDAHO COUNTY.
Said to Equal the Product Of
Pennsylvania.

SastsSJ y SAttta
One OF our readers has recently
visited the new coal discovery made
by Pierce Bros. one mile east OF
Kamiah, in Idaho county, and saw
the real coal. which is pronounced
by experts to be the equal OF any
Pennsylvania coal. Little devel-
opment has been done as yet. The
veins are only six inches wide and
pitch down. There are surface in
dications Of coal for several miles
around which only await capital to
prospect and develop to insure a
great and extensive coal field. Mr..
Pierce has been offered $40, 900 for
his prospect by Chicago capitalists
which he declined. They have
commenced prospecting for oil, and
IT is stated that capitalists are going
in with the Pierces, who own 4S0
acres on which this coal was dis.
covered, to thoroughly prospects for
coal aud oil.
The fierces have added an api-
ary to their many other industries,
aud in hives that swarmed in June
there are from 80 to rs pounds OF
honey stored which they readily
dispose OF at 20 cents per pound.
Watch the development of those
coal prospects.

SCARCITY OF DWELLINGS
Remedy Lies In Building and
Loan Association.

The great scarcity Of dwelling
houses in Grangeville brings to
mind the fact that now would pe
splendid time to organize q local
building and loan association. Per-
haps no one thing has done more
toward building towns than these
organizations, and from frequent
talks with many Of our citizens
there is no doubt that one could
be started here with all the MEM
bers desired. There are many in
the town who would build houses
and, by paying q few dollars each
month, in q few years own their
own homes without being out but
little, or no more than they would
pay in the same length of time in
rent. Besides, it would stimulate
the sale of real estate, furnish work
for carpenters and builders, make
landowners out Of renters and there
by encourage personal interest in
the general welfare Of our town.

A Delightful Dance.

The Thanksgiving ball given by
the Odd Fellows of White Bird last
Thursday was one Of the most sue.
cessful social gatherings ever held
in that thriving little town. Aide
tails necessary for success were
attended to by the lodge, and when
Z. 2. Taylor's string band opened
the ball there was q splendid
crowd Of both old and young ready
to join in the merry dance. The
banquet, which was laid for fifty
couples, was served at Mrs. Henry
Jones' popular hotel, the cooking
being under the personal direction
Of Mrs E. A. Saunders, one Of Idaho
county's most famous cooks. On
the whole the lodge is proud of its
success and the guests grateful for
q delightful evening.

GREAT HELP TO FARMERS
Can Market Grain Without Ex-
pensive Long Haul.

The completion Of the farmers
tramway, located about midway
between Kamiah and Greer, on the
Clearwater Short Line, resulted in
great advantage to the farmers of
the reservation section, as it affords
them an opportunity to market
their grain without the long and
expensive haul from the table lands
down to the river. The cable used
for this improvement is an endless
coil Of steel wire $4,000 feet long,
suspended on rollers and carrying
1000 steel buckets. The power is
furnished by large stationary
engine located at the summit Of the
hill. Grain is now being delivered
at the upper terminus at the rate Of
several thousand bushels per day.
Last week a car load Of eugar was
transported from the river to the
upper terminus at the same time
that wheat and flax were in transit
to the lower terminus, with result
ing saving of $3.50 in freight
charges. The tramway is now
working smoothly and is doing
good work for the farmers Of that
section. At the lower terminus,
% miles above the town Of Pardee,
new town called Fairplay has
been started, and the Clearwater
Short Line is now putting in side
track there. The several grain
companies are also building large
warehouses at that point.
