the lumbermen; the fuel situation is
probably as favorable as it has been
during the immediate past, as some coal
is being received by concerns who would
be almost obliged to close their plants if
a supply could not be secured, but coal
is very scarce as n rule. The new year
is starting out we'll for the wholesale
dealers. who find good demand tor
staple articles. The roads are in good
condition, as sleighing is good; the
slight thaw during the week did not
cold weather during the latter part of
the week has prevented further waste.
Retail trade is good and collections APP
pear to be satisfactory.

busy and the woodworking establish
ments are well employed. The retail
trade is brisk and collections as usual.
Wholesale dealers are distributing an

The Bridge Matter.
President

ne 6Tldge waiter.
The article in the HERALD of our
last issue, calling attention to the
prospect of securing an appropria-
ton from the legislature for bridge
has attracted much attention and
received very favorable comment
1t has born fruit to the extent of
Call published elsewhere Let ev-
cry one turn out and help push this
i'm portant matter along. The i'm
portance of the bridge to the wei
fare of the town and the large pop
ulation That it will serve, can not
be overestimated, and the present
seems the most favorable time to
secure the wherewithall
The v eiser people have already
recured a favorable report from the
committee in the legislature for
their bill appropriating $4,000 for
bridge at that place.
The article in the HERALD last
week explains the situation aud is
herewith reproduced:
The past three months has en-
phasized the necessity of bridge
across the Kootenai River at this
place more than ever before. The
partial closing of the river by ice
has made the ferry imperative ex-
cept for few days and the ice at
no time ha been strong enough for
team to cross. This condition
exists every fall and spring, and is
intolerable.
The country has out grown the
ferry boat.
A bridge is an absolute necessity.
The time is now ripe for action.
The HERALD believes that the
state should lend helping hand in
making such improvements on such
rivers as the Kootenai and Snake
A southern member has introduced
bill into the legislature for an APP.
preparation to aid in constructing
bridge across Snake River.
We should ask our members in the
legislature To do the same in rela-
ton to the KoOtenai. There are
opportunities to secure a bridge
row that may not exist again for
years. The NorUhside people
should be up and doing. We adj
wise that they take this matter up
with the Business Mems Associa-
ton without delay.
rhe HERALD CT n assure those in
terested that Senator Yost and
Representatives Ashley, Reid. and
Flint will give their best eff1rts to
securing an -ppI opriallon for this
purpose. if it be practicable to Sc
cure such aid. The people at this
end of the liue must d" their part,
however.
