entertainment by getting lost in the

If every citizen of Idaho county would
try to get one immigrant to settle here
next spring, the population could be
doubled next year. The newcomers
woald help pay the taxes, and would SO
largely increase the production of the
country that the railroad couldn't
choose but to build here.-Standard
The many new buildings in progress
on the reservation makes it well nigh
impossible to obtain lumber at any of
the yards in this locality. These mills,
run to their fullest capacity, have been
unable to supply the great denland.-
Nezperce Herald.
The same can be said for this vicinity.
Charlie Eller started for Lewiston
this morning with Mrs. 7. H. Thurman
and children. We understand that the
barber is in Spokane under medical
treatment and that it will be impossible
for him to leave there before two months.
Mrs. Thurman and family will remain
in Lewiston this winter.
Capt. Castle, OF Grangeville, has
started movement on the part of the
Idaho volunteers to secure the state pay
to which they were entitled. Under
the law all militia men are entitled to
81 per day from the state when they are
called out by the state. The Idaho vol
unteers were called out by the state
from eighteen to twenty-ons days before
they were mustered into the United
States service and consequently are en-
titled to the state pay from the date of
their enrolment until the date of their
muster in. The oticers Of ths regiment
have received their state pay but the
privates have not, and cannot, unless
the next legislature makes aR appropri-
alton for that purpose. We understand
that the Representatives OF Idahe and
Nezperce counties have agreed to push
the matter and see that 'the men be-
hind the guns" got their dues as well as
"the men alongeide the swords" 1t is
not right that the private volunteers
should lose their pay and their officers
sqould get theirs, as one is NO better
than the other.
