1t is learned that the Northern Pa
cific Railway Company will make an
effort to have the steel bridge which
Is to replace the long trestle at this
place completed this season. The pro-
posed structure will be more than a
mile long and the piers have not yet
all been built. This will furnish some
idea Of the large force Of men that will
be required to complete the work in SO
short a period. All OF the work is to
be done by contact.
Notices were posted at the N. P.
depot here Tuesday stating that for
the present Nos. II and II would be
abandoned between Butte and Spo-
kane. Discontinuance Of this service
is thought to be due to the blockade
occasioned by the washout which the
Northern Pacific recently suffered IN
North Dakota, and will be continued
until the blockade is raised. In the
meantime the inconvenience must be
borne with the best ftrtitutle possible.
Edwin Doust of Bonners Ferry pass
ed through here last Friday evening,
enroute to Spokane and Rathdrum on
personal business. Mr.. Doust was
candidate for the receivership of the
Occur d'Alene land Office, but Idaho's
member of the national republican
committee saw fit to recommend the
of Major Warner. Ed.
is not in the least discouraged over
the matter, and in the approaching
campaign will be found working hard
as ever for the success of his party.
That is the proper spirit.

The number of voters registered for
the recent municipal election furnish
es basis for an estimate Of what the
vote of this precinct is likely to be at
this falls general election. The pres
ent corporation is confined to what is
known as "Old Standpoint" on the east
side Of Sand Creek, and Farmin's First
addition. This leaves out about one
half of the residence portion of the
town and a large number Of workmen
employed at the Humbird Lumber
Company's mills. When these facts
are taken into consideration 600 is a
estimate OF the number
of voters in this precinct who are like
ly to participate in this falls election.

cold, which kept me awake at night
and made me unfit to attend my work
during the day. One OF my milliners
was taking Chamberlain's C Cough REM

The question OF Sunday closing,
which has been agitated for some
time past in Standpoint, took definite
form this week in the way OF petit
tion being circulated among the busi-
ness men. The petition was unani-
mously signed, and as a consequence
the business houses OF our
town will remain closed all day Sun
day. The prevailing custom has been
TO hold open during the forenoon, and
while it has proved convenience to
many people. no fair minced indiyid-
nal can find fault with our business
men for the step they have taken. 1t
will take but short time for everyone
tn become accustomed to the new in
and think nothing Of It.
