Additional Local.

Sheriff Seay is in our city from the
county seat.
We have reliable information to the
effect that at least thirty new buildings,
residence and business, will be erected
in Cottonwood during this year. We
will wager that that number can be
built and that none will stand vacant
next winter. Cottonwood is beginning
to grow and will continue to do so, and
in few years more she will be one OF
the best towns in north Idaho. No per-
son can make mistake by investing in
property here. Try it and see.
Mrs. Margaret Upton last Saturday
purchased from Messrs. Goldstone and
Creelman the building and lot adjoining
| the butchershop on the west. The
building will be remodelled and Mrs
| Upton will start first class bakery
while Miss Upton will convert part o
the building into dressmaking parlor
and will put in an uptodate line of mill
inery. The ladies are certain to make
success of their venture and we bespeal
for them liberal patronage.

that the provisions Of the statutes
giving towns the authority to issue
bonds apply with equal force to
villages. The opinion was written
by Justice Ailshie, being the first
written by that member OF the

AS o member Of the old firm wish
to thank our friends and patrons

wish is that we may be able to say
the same in the future. As to the
future course Of the paper we deem
it proper to say few words at this

to get all the news at all times, but
as we cannot be on the outside con
tinually we may miss some items
therefore if you know any items OF

Informing us. To our patrons we
will give the best service in oul
power and ask in return the con
tinuance OF the liberal patronage
given us in the past. Politically
the CHRONICLE will maintain al
independent position, but politics
will occupy but small share o

work for the advancement Of oul
country and our people while W

all fairly and squarely.
