A NEW TOWNSHIP.
Elk City tn Have Competitor
for Red River Trade.

A number of the residents Of Elk
City have been in Grangeville re-
Gently attending cases in court and
taking in the fair, and from one OF
them it was learned that Elk City
is soon to have a rival town to
compete with for the trade of the
Red River country. The new
townsite will be located about a
quarter of a mile from the mouth
Of Siegel Creek, and something like
three miles from the American
Eagle mine. The place selected to
build the new town is an ideal one.
1t is on a nice, level plat Of ground
covering many acres, and is pro-
tected by sloping hills that gently
rise from it in all directions. There
is an abundance OF good water.
The new town will be in the
heart of the Siegel, Blanco, and
Red River districts, and but short
distance from the property of the
dredge company on Red River.
The necessity for the new town has
been clearly apparent for some
time, and especially SO since the
American Eagle mine has been so
rapidly pushing to the front. Here
tofore freighters who have hauled
to the district around the proposed
townsite have had to unload and
pull back to Elk City, seven miles
distant, that being the nearest
point where accommodations could
be had.
The whole country around the
proposed new town has been alive
with prospectors the past season,
and a number of claims have been
bonded in good sums. Work is
being pushed on many of them,
some of which will be in the pro-
ducing class in short time.
Application has been made for a
postoffice at the new town, and it
is expected the commission will be
issued within the present month.
Contracts have been, or are about
to be, let for hotel, store, saloon,
blacksmith shop, restaurant, livery
stable, barber shop, and two or
three other buildings. The Amer
lean Eagle people are said to be
backing the deal.
The new town will hurt Elk City
for awhile, but in a few years the
development of mines in that Sec
ton will have been carried forward
to such an extent that there will be
an increased business for both
places.

Parker & Young report the sale
last week of the quarter section
purchased last fall by D. L. Wylde
of j. M. Eller. The new pur-
chaser is j. F. Belden, Of Lisbon,
Iowa. the price paid is s25 per

Wednesday, expecting to return
with his family during the present
week and take possession of his
new home.
A band Of 5000 sheep belonging
to J. d. Theissen, Of Lewiston,
passed through town Friday last,
enroute to the Snake river range
from the mountains beyond Adams

Mr.. Theissen will soon ship 1O,-
600 head to st. Paul, Mimi, at
which place he has sold them at
gilt edge Professionalism.
Among the visitors to Grange.
vile during the street fair was
Frank w. Ross, in former years a
member of the big cattle firm of
Wyatt & Ross, of Salmon river.
He is now engaged in the banking
business at st. Anthony, Fremont
county, this state, and as this was
his first trip to town in six years
he was agreeably surprised at the
progress which the town has made
since then.
Among recent arrivals is E. L.
Atkins of Linton, N. D., who is
here to take charge of the land in
terests Of j. E. Horton OF that place.
Mr.. Atkins will engage in hog rails
ing on Mr.. Horizons lands here,
and as he has been with Mr.. Horton
for ten years engaged in the care
of his live stock interests back east
we may assume that he is a thor
oughly competent gentleman to
give our people some good point
ers in that line Of industry.
The street fair is over and while
the exhibits and attractions were
all that could have been expected,
the continued bad weather had a
dampening effect upon the crowd
and prevented many from attend
ing. The arrangements and man
agement were by far the best of
any fair heretofore held and too
much credit cannot be given
Messrs. Wax, Hattabaugh and
Norwood for the tireless manner
in which they worked for the sue
cess of the fair. 1t is no easy
task to look after the details in
such gatherings yet these gentle
men contributed their time from
early morning till late at night
and during the entire week there
was not hitch in the program
that human power could have
avoided and if the weather pre-
vented the fair from being the
social success expected it was not
their fault.
