READY FOR
e NEW! ROAD
~
North and South Idaho Could Be
Connected by Rail With
80 Miles B.ildiag

The agitation, at this time. Of a
North and South Idaho railroad Is Pc
culiarly suspicious and meets with the
hearty approval Of all progressive citi-
Gems OF the state, says the Council Ad-
vance.
Because of the dificulty OF communal
cation and intercourse between the rich
timber districts Of North Idaho and the
fertile fruit and farming section of
South Idaho the development Of the
state. as a whole, has been retarded
and the people Of the north have been
deprived Of the opportunity to particle
pate. to the fullest extent In which they
are entitled. in the affairs OF the state.
and from this cause has arisen many
misunderstanding between the people
of the two sections.
That there is a diversity Of inter-
ests and Industries in the two ends Of
the state Is true and the fact that such
is the case is strong argument In
favor of a line of travel that will quick
ly and cheaply transport the products
of one section to the other to the ad
vantage of all and the detriment OF
none.
The difficulties of constructing a road
which will afford direct route Of
travel from the northern part OF the
state to the south are not great. In
fact but about 100 miles of road are
necessary TO effect this end and thirty
miles of the distance is already graded.
An extension OF the p. & l. N. from
Council to Sites and the trick Is done.
From Council to Meadows the grading
Is almost all done and from Meadows
to Sites a water grade can be secured
that can be easily followed.
This is the logical route and would
open UP section of country unsur-
passed in the richness of its natural
resources, while in affording a compar
atively direct line of transportation
from the rich districts of the north to
the equally rich districts of the south
would eliminate the long, expensive
and tiresome journey now necessary
when the people of one section desire
to visit the other.
! Let us have a road of this kind and
| its influences for the good Of the entire
state will be felt in every section and
will be "A permanent convenience just
as the demand for it has become an
| imperative necessity.

John A, Rehkopf

On Tuesday of this week, the city
and community Of Grants Pass was
shocked to learn Of the sudden death
Of j. A. Rehkopf, which occurred ON
Monday night. Mr.. Rehkopf was
i'll only few hours preceding his
death. The cause of his death seems
to have been neuralgia, which attack
cd his heart. The funeral was held
at his home on Wednesday afternoon
and in respect for the deceased the
business houses Of the city were
closed from to 4 O'Clock, p. M, on
requ est by the mayor.
Mr. Rehkopf was a thoroughly
honored and esteemed citizen and had
been prominent member of the city
council for number of years, in
which capacity ho has left a record
for faithfulness and capability. lie
was an honored member OF the a. U.
q. W. and of the Forestors OF
America. His age was b3 years. lie

our PERSONAL COLUMN WOMANS CLUB MEETS;
Work Outlined for the Ensuing
Year.

The Grants Pass womans Club held
their first meeting in the Presbyterian
church parlors, last Saturday after
noon, October /, 1904. As officers
were elected at the close of last year
the work was taken mp with the new
officers in charge.
Mrs. Riddle, Mrs. Wharton and
Mrs. Day were taken in as new men,
bers, with others to join later.
A letter was received from the
Lewis and CLARK committee stating
that stories from old pioneers would
be accepted and sold, the money
going toward the Sacajawea Monu.
ment fund.
The resignation of the treasurer
was read and accepted and Mrs.
Seevey elected to fill the vacancy.
A communication was also received
from the general club asking that
delegates be sent to the general con-
vention, which meets at Baker City
in October The club voted to,send
the president. Mrs. Ora Hemmen-
way, with expenses paid, to the gen
eral convention, and also appointed
Miss Goodin or Mrs. Hildreth as dele
gate to attend should the president be
absent.
A letter of acknowledgment was
received from the gentlemen who
presented the club with $S5 for the
Carnegie Library fond. This money
had to be returned ON account of the
library not materializing.
The Calendar committee was re-
qucsted to report at next meeting in
order to map out the years work.
The report from the different de-
partments was as follows: Music
to meet with Mrs. II. Q.
the second Friday of each
month; literary department to meet
with Mrs. W. NJ. Hair the third Fri
day of each month; Home and House
hold Economics and Hygiene depart
ment to meet with Mrs. John Lucas
next Thursday afternoon at O'Clock,
at which time practical demonstra-
tion in cooking will be given; the
parliamentary department to meet the
first Tuesdays in he month A great
deal of interest was manifested and
the indications are that the club will
have another successful years work.
1t seems that the benefits of such
club have never been fully appre-
ciased by the ladies of Grants Pass
and it seems that everyone who
wishes to improve or better them
selves should join with the club and
attend some department.
The Literary department will take
up reading course on German Liter
ature, in connection with the Ger
man music which will be studied ty
the Music department. Everyone
should avail themselves of this op-
portunity presented and study with
the different departments. The next
club meeting will be held the first
in November.

Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1904-12-15

During the past week We have re-
C lived many complimentary words
as to the policy of the NEWS. We
may not have a staff of az witty
writers as others, but we have al.
ways stood by the city of Baxter
Springs, and upheld her good name
under all conditions and circum-
stances. We have never printed
line or word calculated to injure
the town or throw cold water on
any of her enterprises. The NEWS
in come respects has followed in
the line adopted by the late Colonel
Weldy. His war cry of "Great 10
Gaiena" was always at the mast
head of his paper and was persist
emily displayed until Galena grew
to be the biggest and best town in
Southeastern Kansas. The NEWS
has the biggest kind of faith in the
future of Baxter Springs. and we
shall ever present the bright eide
to our readers. We believe in the
mines, the railroads, the electric
trolley, the mill dams, the big
water power, natural gas, water
works, the new electric light com.
pany, the Baxter Mining Company,
the flour mill, the big reunion, the
medical springs, the city council,
the new investors who are con-
stantly coming in, and in fact we
not only believe, but We know that
Baxter Springs is to be the best
town Cherokee county ever had. 1t
is our province to encourage our
readers TO believe as we do, and ut
ter no line or word that would like.
ly throw cold water on any enter.
prise, or scheme, or project calcu-
lated to help make this big city.
Let US all work together for the
good of the town, and If you don't
have faith in things as they pre-.
sent themselves, don't throw bricks
at them. Don't knock out any en-
terprise on suspicion. Work for
Baxter Springs first, last and all
the time. Don't knock.
