The people Of Grangeville are
not trying to fool anybody on the
county seat removal proposition.
They have bonded the town for
$4,000 for the purpose Of erecting a
county court house, and the build
ing is now going up. The people
of Grangeville propose to give the
county commissioners longtime
lease on this building free of all
charges for rent or insurance as
long as it is occupied for court
house purposes. Under the law
we are prohibited from giving a
deed to the county or a deed would
be given. The papers in the case
will be submitted to the voters in
good time, SO they can see just
what we offer them.

that this part OF Idaho county. re-
ceives more publicity through the
columns of the Grangeville papers
than all the other parts of the
county combined. So far as the
FREE Press is concerned, we have
never tired OF advertising the min
eral resources of all that section,
as our readers we'll know, and no
matter what the result of the county
seat contest may be, we expect to
continue our share Of the good
work, because we believe it is a
mineral country of rare merit, and
anything we can do to bring it to
the front shall be freely contributed
without fear, favor or hope Of re-
ward.

The republicans are still harping
on the so-called gerrymander of the
legislature by the democrats. There
is no gerrymander about it. Idaho
county has the same representation
in both houses Of the legislature
that Nez Perez county has. DO
the republicans intend to deprive
Idaho county of one Of her three
legislative representatives in the
event that they are restored to
power? Or will they give us the
same old joint representation with
republican Latah which they orig
inally gave us when the state was
first admitted?

The republican state platform is
in favor of maintaining the "two-
mile-law," Except as changing
conditions may demand modifica-
tions." Elect a republican legis-
lature and the sheepmen will soon
"modify" that law out of existence.
The exception clause emascu-
lated the value of the greenback
during the civil war, and the sex
ception clause" in the republican
state platform will similarly emas-
culate the "two- mile-limit law.o
Take no chances in the matter, and
vote the straight democratic legis-
lative ticket.

From w. s. Hogan.

Frank Hogan has received a let
ter from his brother Will announ-
cling the arrival OF himself and fam
lily at Phoenix, Ariz. They stopped
off at Sacramento and Los Angeles,
and he writes that we people up
here in the backwoods cannot con-
ceive of the beauties of the two
cities. From Los Angeles all the
way to about Is miles from Phoe-
nix the country, he says, is an
abomination of desolation, consist
ing Of nothing but sage brush, cac-
tus and sand, with heat enough to
beat the Internal regions out of
sight. The present population Of
Phoenix is about 10000, hut it is
now beginning to fill up with the
annual inflow of tourists and win
ter residents, which will swell it's
population in another month to 49,.
900 people. The climate is warm
and dry and is found to be very
beneficial to persons suffering from
pulmonary, bronchial or consump-
tive troubles. He says the mer-
curry registered 80 in the shade at
5 O'Clock in the evening, although
the natives say the heated term is
over for the winter, but Will and
his people do not think so. They
expect to spend the entire winter
there.

The general school fund of the
state of Idaho now holds $751;, 34S,

edge mortgages drawing per cent
annual interest, the interest on
which is distributed among the

portionment in the history of the
state, was disbursed July /, 1902.

The "sugar beet bounty nearly
bankrupted the state of Nebraska,
and yet such measure is being
urged by the republicans of south
ern Idaho. The people of Camas
Prairie should remember that it il
only by the veto of Gov. Hunt that
a similar measure for this state
was defeated. Nebraska was saved
from absolute bankruptcy only by
repeating the bounty law. The
surest way to prevent the enact
ment of a sugar bounty law in the
state OF Idaho is to elect only dem
ocratic legislative nominees.

other man, named Lowe, a resi-.

claimed all of the effects Of Mr..
Pollock, sold them, took the money
and left. He is also said to have
done the same thing with the ef-

also died in the same neighborhood
under similar suspicious circum-
stances. The post norton was
held and the stomach brought to
Grangeville, and if the county at

fies going into the matter further

York for an analysis Of it's contents.

The Late Thomas Pollock Said
to Have Been Poisoned.

Drs. Sheaffer and Nickel returned
last Friday from their trip to Rapid
river where they went to make a
post mortem examination on the
body Of the late Thomas Pollock.
who died September IA, and who
was alleged to have been poisoned.
1t appears that a couple Of men
who have since left the country
called at Pollock's place with a
bottle of whisky of which Mr.. Pol
lock partook, and in the morning
his was found dead. One of the
men was named Silver and he ran

departure at early daylight upon

AS election day approaches the
common sense of the people asserts
itself, and many heretofore object
ors announce their intention of
voting for removal of the county
seat to Grangeville. There is really

pense, and as we offer new build
ing for an old one that feature is
no longer an issue in the county
seat campaign.

AN ERRONEOUS IDEA.


Opponents of the county seat re-
moval are making the statement in
Newsome, Elk City and Dixie that
Grangeville has never manifested
any desire to help the mountain
country. This is a very erroneous
idea. Grangeville people were in
strumental in securing the passage
of the bill appropriating the &c.,
600 from the state treasury for the
purpose of building the state road
from Clearwater to Newsome.
Grangeville money also built that
part of the state road extending
from the Newsome house to the
Thirty mile tree. Grangeville
money also built the wagon road
from Elk City to the Cleveland
mine on Relief creek; and addi-
tional Grangeville money was also
contributed in extending this road
to the Badger mine. Grangeville
money was also largely instru-
mental in securing the completion
of the wagon road from Elk City
to Dixie, many Of our people hav-
ing taken stock in the mines of the
Idaho Comstock company for the
express purpose of aiding in the
completion of this road.
Grangeville people are and have
been for many years freely contrib
uting their money in the develop
ment of their mining properties in
the Elk City, Newsome and Dixie
camps, and it is safe to say that at
least 5000 is paid by Grangeville
people every year for assessment
work upon their holdings through
out these camps.
Incidentally, We may remark
