Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1904-03-19

The agitation of the organized
mining districts of Idaho county
are, we are glad to announce, be-
ginning to bear fruit. The dis
cretionary power which rested
with the secretary of the inter
ior formerly, which permitted
that official to establish forest
reserves where, when and how
he pleased, has been revoked by
the president, thanks to our con-
gressional delegation. Since
when the department manifests
disposition to be more amen
able to reason, which we must
not forget may be assumed for
Interior purposes which does not
now appear upon the surface.
The MINING News therefore
takes the liberty to advise you to
maintain your original position
with firmness and dignity. The
future prosperity of Idaho coun-
ty, and in fact the state at large,
demands the absolute elimination
OF the forest reserve system from
within its borders. We do not
say this desirable condition can
be brought about at the present
time, but by maintaining a firm
attitude, the withdrawal of the
mining districts can be secured
before the fall elections, accept
no compromise on this point, in
sist upon the absolute indepen-
dence of the mining industry I'M
der the common law. The rest
will follow as the people awake
to the true inwardness of this
forest reserve buncombe, and
realize the fact that it is merely
an addition to the spoilsman's
visible assets.

They must, however, be unpleas-

in one who had swelled around in

Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1904-03-19

The Lewiston Tribune in an
editorial recently resented with
considerable warmth the claims
of the Spokane Board of Trade
to the effect that certain CONNER
cial territory claimed by Lewis
ton belonged properly to Spo-
kane.
This is no doubt a proper spirit
for Lewiston to exhibit, but the
Tribune should impress upon its
clientele the fact that it is not
enough to embalm their claims to
commercial supremacy in print
er's ink; and to this end the MIN
ING News will aid the Tribune to
the extent of the following in
formation: Spokane is heard of
one hundred times where Lewis
ton is spoken of once, especially
in this part of Idaho county. Now
if Lewiston wishes to combat
successfully Spokane's well
founded claims, she must cease
chasing rainbows and develop her
contiguous territory. She has
permitted herself to be practical
ly crowded out of this district
without making any serious eff
fort to hold her position, and
doing absolutely nothing to ex-
tend her influence.
There is now opening, contigu-
Gus to Elk City, Dixie and Buffa-
10 Hump, and south of Salmon
river, a vast new region with
commercial possibilities as vast as
its area, into which not one dol
lars worth of merchandise from
northern Idaho has found it's
way. This lethargy upon the part
of the commercial interests, of
the above mentioned section,
would be ine5zplicable under al
most any conditions. What then
can be said in their defense when
it is a we'll known fact that there
is we'll constructed wagon road
as far as Dixie leaving a distance
of less than seventy miles to
Roosevelt and less than forty to
the Big Creek district.
1t is safe to say that fully 1000
men will be employed in those
two districts alone this present
year, aside from Elk City, Dixie,
and Buffalo Hump, which COM
bined will no doubt exceed that
number. These 1000 men will
form the basis of a market equal
to an agricultural population of
5000 or 5000.
We are informed on good au-
thority that the pack trail from
Dixie can be put in a good safe
condition for the trifing sum of
$500. This, by the way, is NOT
the trail discovered by the great
path finder, Walter Hovey
Hill. The trail we have in mind
was looked out" by prospectors
and settlers, and has not swamp
on it, very little down timber,
and has been used quite extern
sively already. 1t is worthy of
observation, in view of the nu-
fatalities and narrow es-
capes from snow slides reported
from the other routes, that the
topography of the Dixie route
precludes the possibility of such
perils to the life and property of
the traveller.

DORIS GOES AWHEELIN'
BY JESSIE WADE MANNING -e~
Copyri1ssd by Publishing Company

Early one morning, when the crocus-
Bs, tulips and daffodils were vieing
with one another in their gaudy raj
ment, delivery wagon stopped before
the garden gate, at the Gorham home
stead.
A bright, new bicycle was lifted out
and taken to the side entrance. Doris
rorham stood in the door mixing some
Iced for the chickens. When she saw
what was coming, her heart thumped
like trip-hammer.
Her older sister, Lorlnda, who was
sitting on the steps pairing apples,
started as though she had received a
blow, when the wheel was placed be-
side her on the stoop.
80, Doris" she began, sarcastically,
without looking up from her work,
you've thrown your money away on
llis device of the devil. II you'd only
taken it when other people did, there'd
be some excuse for 1t, but from child
Tou've always showed such perverse-
ness"
But then, Lorlnda, bicycles were
too expensive" began Doris. Her Sis
ter paid no attention to the Interrupt
ton. but exclaimed as she bounced
into the house:
powers Of mercy! A woman OF
your age, with hair as specified as the
black and white spotted hen, ridin'
such an instrument of torture and a
real menace to morality, and" the
Blamming of the screen door finished
the sentence.
A few years before the opening of
this story, Waverly had grown so rap
Idly. after the building of the great
steel plant, that the three maiden Sis
ters, living in the comfortable farm
house on the ridge road awoke one
morning to find their property was
within the city limits.
"This is a pretty kettle Of fish" said
Lorlnda, the eldest, reading the noti-
Hcation. "How are we to pay the paw
Ing tax and Improvement" she asked
sharply with her little, swapping, black
eyes on the serious faces of her
younger sisters.
Cut the meadow up into city lots"
spoke up Eunice, the second and prac-
teal sister.
This suggestion seemed to meet
with the older woman's approval
Doris remained silent, but was as con-
Iclous Of what Lorinda would say next
ls though she herself was to voice the
thought.

word.

into his companions eyes.

little more gently, meeting his gaze.
IF you'd only answered my note
that day instead Of sending Lorinda
with your message, 1t might have been
different" Seth said In husky voice.
81 never got your note, and never
sent Lorinda to you" returned Doris
Indignantly. Then, like flash, she re-
membered tho quarrel with her eldest
sister on that fatal day, and how Lo-
rinda had declared she'd fix her."
Seth dropped the wrench he was
using and taking Doris hand in his
brawny one, said tenderly:
Some ones cheated us out of years
and years of happiness, little woman,
but If you'll say the word now, well

Doris rose, with pink flush on her
still rounded cheek, looking at her BIZ
cycle, the unconscious means of her
long deferred happiness, and, then in
her old lovers dark eyes, said archly:
You can buy the tandem, Seth"

breaking the tenth commandment, had
prayed hard for fortitude and grace,
but a phantom Seth had been her con-
slant companion, whether she would
or not-although, when, as neighbors,
they met occasionally, they barely
passed the time Of day, and since his
wlfe's death, the old lovers had seen
nothing of each other.
In the evening of the eventful day
in the Gorham house, Doris in a dress
reduced in rank to a bicycle skirt,
passed stealthlly down the gravel walk
and noiselessly up to a quiet, little
street recently macadamized, where
she determined to learn to ride the
unmanageable thing she was leading.
Her method was, indeed, original.
With her left foot on the pedal and
her right one on the curb-stone, she
propelled herself, reversing the posi-
ton occasionally, or, as she put 1t,
"llmbering up one leg at time"
The quaint little woman soon gained
confidence and was able to wheel
down the steep hill at the end Of the
street without any mlshaps.
Just before starting for home, as
she held the handle-bar like a wise
and rode slowly down the incline, she
was suddenly showed in such man
ner that the wheel seemed to take
the bit and have its way.
"Where're you going?" yelled a
hoarse voice, as someone wheeled by
her.
Where you've sent me, reckon"
answered Doris not daring to look
up and following her leader at ter
rife speed.
Reaching the foot OF the hill. she
overlook and ran down the wheelman.
As the rider extricated himself. and

feet, he exclaimed, overcome with as

For a second Doris was more an

wheel at his time Of life. Then she
blushed, as she remembered that there
was only two years difference in their
ages. Conscious Of each others EN-

'T~HE season of catching cold is upor
Tho nn,,..L md Il.a n..aa.., Z

THE season of catching cold is upon
III us. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catarrh, the
most common and dreadful Of diseases, is
Q cold.
This Is the way the chronic catarrh gen.
orally begins. A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual. The
cold generally starts In the head and
throat. Then follows sensltiveness of the
air passages which incline one TO catch
cold very easily. At last the person has a
cold oil the while seemingly, more or less
discharge from the nose, hawking, spit
ting, frequent clearing of the throat, nos
trils stopped up, full feeling In the head
and sore lnfamed throat
The best time to treat catarrh Is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Peruna prop
erly used never fails to cure q common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured Of
chronic oatarrh by single bottle Of
Peruna, yet, as rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than one
bottle Is necessary to complete a cure.
Peruna has cured cases innumerable
Of catarrh of twenty years. standing.
II Is the best, II not the only internal
remedy for chronic catarrh In existence.
But prevention Is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the slight
est symptom Of cold or sore throat at
this season OF the year and thus prevent
what Is almost certain to end In chronic
catarrh.
