Idaho Visitors at Fair disgusted with
States poor showing.
STEAL IN STATE BUILDING
$4,000 spent on Building that could, have
been built for $500. Horticultural
Exhibit practically worthless.

Idaho visitors to the st. Louis
exposition, barring state officials,
are generally disgusted with the
showing made by this state. Rath-
er it might better be described as a
lack OF showing. In the first place
the so called Idaho building is the
most nnapprapriate structure on
the grounds, since it only attracts
the attention of the curious who
stop to inquire of the janitor in
charge what it is. There is moth
ing suggestive of Idaho about it,
and while it cost $1,000, there
would have been money in build
ing it at 81 800, SO contractors say.
1t is not even given in the official
directory of the worlds fair
grounds, probably because those in
charge of the work were unable to
decide what it was-the obliging
janitor not having arrived at the
time--and it was passed up as the
bungalow of one of the oriental
concessions. As to exhibits, the
three or four apples in the fruit
section are said to have been eaten
by greedy visitors or mixed up
with other exhibits-anyway our
horticultural exhibit is not in evil
dence to those who have only a
few weeks to spend on the grounds
hunting for it, and the Ogden tro-
ply is placed up with the mineral
exhibit, which looks like 80 cents
alongside of Colorado's and Utah's
showing. The big fair appropria-
ton seems to have been expended
for something besides gathering ex-
bibits that will advertise the re-
sources of Idaho Boise Capital
News.

VERDICT WILFUL MURDER.
COrOner's Jury returns above verdict in
Warren shooting case.

DIR. Turner returned home We'd
nesday evening from Secesh creek
where he went last week to hold
an inquest over the remains of
Chris Long and L. D. VAIN who
were shot and killed there last
week by Bob Wetter. DR.. Tnrner
says that the people of that section
were much worked up over the
shooting and had the full facts
been known Wetter would most
likely have been lynched before he
could have gotten out of that coun-
try. Acting on the supposition
that the coroner would, not come
so far to hold an inquest the resi-
dents of that section swore in a
temporary coroner and impanelleJ
jury which returned a verdict
declaring Wetter guilty of murder
in the first degree. Later Coroner
Turner reached the scene and a
new jury was called which, after
examining all the evidence obtain
able, brought in a verdict to the
effect that Long and VAIN came
TO their death through gunshot
wounds inflicted by Wetter will
fully and maliciously and with
murderous intent. 1t appears the
men were interested with several
others in some mining claims in

MORE RAILROAD TALK.
Northern Pacific man now buying right-of.
way from CuIdesac to 6rangeviIle.

Commissioner Simon returned
Wednesday from Grangeville, the
county board having completed
the business of this term and ad-
journed. Yesterday Mr.. Simon
informed US that before leaving the
county seat he was informed that
an agent of the Northern Pacific
railway had been there for several
days and intended leaving immedi-
atelv to begin the purchase of. the

A movement is now on foot to supply
the Town with Music.
MSTpUAENTs COST $500
Plenty Of Talent procurabIe and a fine
Band con be Organized instruments
be property Of Town.

A movement is now on foot to
start hand here and we under
stand it will receive pretty liberal
support. Mr.. Libbey intends cir
culating a subscription paper to-
day to see how much can be secur-
ed toward buying the necessary
instruments and meeting will be
held tomorrow night for the pur-
pose of organizing and seeing what
can be done to make the movement
a success. 1t is the intention to
have the town buy and own the
band instruments and then select
IL or IA persons who are perma-
nently located here and give them
instruction So that when the band
is started it will not be broken up
every few months by some member
moving away. 1t is estimated
that between $3.50 and $500 will be
required to purchase the II or IA
instruments for the band and we
believe it will not be difficult
matter to secure this amount from
the business men and citizens of
the town. Regarding musical tai
ent, there is an abundance of 1t
here in the rough awaiting the
necessary training and no trouble
will be experienced in securing suf-
ficient mem bers for the band, and
members who will remain for a
number of years so that it will not
be money thrown away in shaping
them up. We know of no one
thing that would be more highly
appreciated in this town than a
good band. 1t would be a con
slant pleasure to tie residents of
the village and would attract peo-
pie to town and whenever we want
ed to celebrate we could go ahead
without having to hire hand from
some other town. Almost enough
money has been paid out for music
for the last two celebrations to buy
the band instruments and if the
present movement is successful
that expense will be eliminated in
future. AS we haye said, there is
an abundance of talent here and it
will not cost much to get an in
structor to put it in shape. Once
started the band will progress rap
idly and will soon become village
necessity instead of luxury.
Help the movement along now that
it is started and come out to the
meeting tomorrow night. If you
can't say good word for it for
goodness sake keep your mouth
shut. Don't knock.

Items Of interest Reproduced for the
Benefit Of our Readers.
A sTopY OF THE WEEK
4 few Incidents that have occurred in
the State since our last Issue.

H. H. Tobey, formerly book
keeper at the Dewey mill on the
Clearwater, has been adjudged in
sane and taken to Blackfoot.
Joe Robertson, IL year old boy,
committed suicide at his fathers
home near Boise by drinking car
bolic acid. The boy had run away
from home and on being brought
back committed the act.
The J. W. Billups farm near
Nezperce was sold last week for
$3.50. The farm comprized 100
acres and the price paid was the
highest yet received for a farm of
that size in that section.
Jack Motthorn, a 17-year old
boy, was drowned last Friday in
the Snake river near Pittsburg Bar.
He was in swimming with two
companions and got out too far.
One of the other boys nearly got
drowned in trying to save him.
A survey was made last week for
the new electric light line from
from Lewiston to Moscow and men
are now at work digging the holes
for the light poles. The light is
expected to be delivered in Moscow
by October 1st. The line runs alb
solutely straight from Lewiston to
Moscow and measures rs miles and
100 feet. From a point on the
hill wires will also be run to Gen.
esee and Uniontown to furnish
those towns with light.
An exchange gives the following
cure for broken dishes. 1t will not
cost much to try it and if it works
good it is invaluable. "a lady has
found cure for broken dishes. Ii
the dish to be mended can be tied
together with stout string, then
placed in boiling milk and left for
one hour you can never tell the
dish has been broken and after
wards it can be put in boiling wat
er without the pieces coming apart.
This experiment has been tried and
proven and many are the broken
dishes which were thought to be
useless and are now as good as
new"
Angora goat meat may prove to
be the fad in Spokane during the
Interstate Fair, which is to be held
this year from October 8 to9. The
Carbon Cattle Company of Orting,
Wash, will send at least one and
perhaps two cars of Angora goats
to the exposition. The company
will have these animals on exhibi-
tion and also will have number
of them fattened aud killed from
day to day during the exposition
and the goat meat served at one of
the leading restaurants of the city.
Visitors to this exhibit will be Civ
en- tickets for a meal of Angora
meat. In this way the meat will
be introduced. Experts say there
are many localities in the Inland
Empire where goats could be raised
TO great advantage. Mountain
sides covered with small timber are
among the localities of this kind.
This company may prove 70 be q
public benefactor by thus intro
ducing Angora goats.

Of the right Of way for his company
from Culdesac to Grangeville. He
will be assisted in the work by AS
sistant Surveyor Spedden, Of
Grangeville, and the right of way
to be purchased will be over the
old survey which rms through
this place. The agent stated at.
Grangeville that it was the inten-
ton of the Northern Pacific to
build from Culdesac to Grangeville
and also to build branch line
from Lewiston to the Twenty one
Ranch near Lake Waha. He also
stated that the o. r. & N. COM
pany would build from Riparia to
Lewiston and the line would be
used by both companies, in consid-
GRAFTON of which the O. r. & N.
company would also be granted the
use of the prairie lines. This
statement, coming from very reli-
able parties in Grangeville, and
coming directly after the visit Of
the head officials of the Northern
Pacific to this section lends color
to the story that the railroads in
tended doing considerable construc-
ton work in the near future and
again stirs up faint hope that
the prairie may soon be furnished
transportation. True, the railroads
have been coming for a number Of
years but then there are few sec
tions of country where they were
not expected and wanted for years
before they did come and it is not
unreasonable to think that now
may be the time for them to do
their building here. One thing is
certain. There is no. section of
country in the Pacific northwest so
rich in products Of all kinds and so
devoid Of transportation facilities
and we are not the only people who
are aware of the fact. The railroad
officials know it also and if they
make up their minds to build in
here they will get here in short or
der and will not stop to ask for
permission to do so either.
LATER: The right of way agent
stopped here last night and left
this morning for Culdesac from
which place he will work this way.

George Winder painted the front OF
the drug store the first of the week and
is now treating the butcher shop to a
new coat of paint, greatly enhancing its
appearance. There are several other
buildings in town that could be treated
in like manner and not detract from
their beauty.
Bob Harter is putting the shelving in
the new drug store this week, after
which the interior of the building will
be painted. Most Of DIR. Briley's drugs
were brought up from Sites last week
and the doctor expects to have the
drug store in shape to open to the pub
lie by the latter part of next week.
We are told some small boy around
town has taken to throwing rocks
through the windows of the Methodist
church and has already broken about
half dozen panes of glass. This is no
way to do and unless the chap stops
his mischief he is liable to get into
trouble. Children should be careful
where they throw stones and should
not molest church property.
Quite large crowd was in town Sat-
urday to attend the Crawford sale hut
in spite of the crowd bidding was weak
and few things were sold. The only bid
on the mill was $4,000, which was not
accepted. Some horses and hogs were
sold but the bidding on the cattle did
not reach high enough figure and but
one was sold. The sale was called off
that evening and the farm and town
property was not offered for sale at all.
Mr.. Bartholomew, the Sites baker,
was in town Wednesday and yesterday
looking over this field with view to
starting restaurant and bakery here.
He was quite we'll impressed with this
place and said he would bring his wife
up and if she liked the place they would
move up at once. Mr.. Bartholomew is
a first class baker and we believe would
do good business here. We expect to
see him return and go into business
early next month in the Upton build
ing.

Petition for Pardon.

To His Excellency, James K. Varda-
man, Governor of Mississippi:
The petition of Sam Harris, would
respectfully show, that he was, on
the first day of January 1901, found
gully of numbering one Lewis Moore,
iu the circuit Court of Washington
county, and his punishment was fixed
at Imprisonment in the penitentiary
for life. Your petitioner would re-
spectfully state, that, while he was
convicted, he was really acting in
self-defense when he killed deceased,
Lewis Moore. and that he could have
proved it, but for the fact that the
states witnesses would not tell of the
killing as it occurred. Your petit
toner has made a good convict since
his confinement, and he has always
been a peaceble, quiet, industrious
man. He therefore prays your Ex-
oellency to grant him a pardon.
SAM HARRIS.

Such men are an honor to the state

DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES,
TO OUR ADVERTISERS

As yet our MerRanthaler linotype
machine has not arrived. We are
still expecting it every day and have
great hopes that it will get here next
week. We dislike very much to SO
disappoint our advertisers and readers
but the delay in changing up the
paper is not our fault. We have
done all we can to rush the shipment
of the machine and now have to con-
tent ourselves on the supposition that
the railroads will get it here as soon
as they can. The machine certainly
ought to arrive by next week and we
hope this is our last apology and ex'
cuse on this matter.
