A.Pleasant Surprise.

On last Tuesday eve while Mr..
Leo Freidenrich of White Bird
was planning to enjoy quiet even
ing at home, his quietude was
suddenly interrupted by the ringing
of the door-bell, upon going to the
door, Mr.. Freidenrick found HIM
self face to face with a jolly crowd
who had come in to surprise him,
and surprise him they did for Mrs.
Freidenrich and the friends had SO
carefully planned every detail of
the affair that not one word of it
had reached him. As eoon as he
could sufficiently recover from his
surprise he invited the crowd in,
and as they had brought their
games with them, the evening WAS
speut in games and pleasant con-
versation. AT the proper time a
dainty lap supper was served and
all present declared they had never
enjoyed themselves SO we'll.
After supper Mrs. Freidenrich
suggested that those present form
Social Club to meet at the home
of some member every Tuesday
evening. Her suggestion met the
approval of all and the club was
organized with Mrs. Freidedrich
as president, Miss Effie Taylor
Vice President, Miss Ora Scott,
Sec. A short programe was made
out and Mrs. Glatiny's was chosen
as the next place of meeting. The
members of the club are, Mr.. and
Mrs. Leo Freidenrich. Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Curtis, DR.. and Mrs. Fosket,
Mr.. and Mrs. Gloting, Mr.. and Mrs
E. M. Bacon, Misses Effie Taylor,

Clearwater Road.

James Surridge and o. G. Lapp,
of Harpster, we're in town Satur-
day circulating petition to the
legislature asking for an appropri-
ations to construct wagon road
up the Clearwater river to juno
ton with road to the Hump and
Elk City. With such road these
camps could be reached at all seas
ons of the year without the OBJ
structions of deep snow and high
altitude. The estimated cost will
be about $40, 900 and the state will
be asked to appropriate half the
amount. The petition is being al
most unanimously signed and there
are strong hopes of its success.

Land Board Mistake.

The special correspondent to the
Tribune from Boise says:
1.-The state land board has held
a number of meetings during the
past week. A bill providing for
the re- organization of the land de-
partment in accordance with the
governors recommendations, will
be introduced this week. Members
of the state land board say that the
state has suffered materially during
the past two years largely on ac-
count Of the organization of the
board. just one act of the old
board, in the blanket filing Of CO.,
600 acres of land in Idaho county,
less than two years ago, it is
claimed has cost the school funds
Of the state fully half million dol
lars. The filing was made in the
Lewiston land Office, and it was
afterwards determined that the land
was generally of little value. An
attempt was made to relinquish
45, 900 acres OF the 10000 filed on.
This the interior department has
refused to permit unless the state
can make showing that the origi-
nal filing was made, through an
error, by reason of fraud or that
the lands was later discovered to
be mineral lands. The state land
board has about concluded that it
will be difficult to secure the ac-
ceptance of the REIMBURSEMENT.
The lands taken under the filing,
it is claimed, will never have any
particular value, many Of those
familiar with the country contend
ing that poorer selections could
have hardly been made in the
state"
The land referred to in the above
is on Joseph plains and caused no
end of trouble to settlers as we'll as
loss to the state.

TAKES HIS OWN LIFE.
Aged Inmate Of Poor Farm
Suicides.

Andrew Ferguson, an inmate of
the poor farm, took his own life
early Saturday morning by shoot
ing himself through the head with
q Colts revolver. He was a native
of Norway, about 65 years old,
and as far as known had no rela-
'tives. He had been in the county
for several years and was residing
near Keutherville up to the time
he came here. He had been in
poor health for long time and
was very despondent over his con-
dition. 1t is not known where he
secured the gun with which be
killed himself.
Coroner Irwin went out and
held an inquest over the remains
but nothing appeared in the testi-
mony that would indicate any
thing other than premeditated
suicide.

Sites Incorporates.

The board of county commission
ers Tuesday granted the petition
of the citizens of Sites for the for
nation of a municipal government
and henceforth that prosperous
town will enjoy the advantage of
local management. The need Of
police and fire protection and some
provision for street work has been
keenly felt for some time and all
of those things can now be provid-
ed for.
The first board Of councilmen
asked for in the petition are D. A.
Smith, H. G. Jackson,>T. E Oliver,
P. Ellis and Phil Hartman.
They are all good men and will
no doubt start the new town off
right.

An Old Timer.

A petition was circulated and
generally signed last week asking
the board of county commissioners
to rescind an order committing
"Grandpa" Hughes to the poor
farm. The old gentleman is con-
siderably oven 100 years old and,
while he has no means of support
objects vigorously to being sent to
the poor farm. He came to Idaho
county in the early sixties and was
then an old man but no one knows
just how old he is as he has no
known relatives. The board de-
cided to allow him to remain Here
and will make him an allowance
of S12 a month.

his private business: Of applying
his idle and surplus funds to the
reduction of his outstanding Obli-
cations. Let this principle be APP
piled to state finance and we will
not need legislation along the lines
Of the Richards bill. Make the
state treasurer the disbursing
agent for the state. Let him pay
out funds as they come in to re-
deem the warrants and bonds, and
thereby remove a sore temptation
to speculate with the public money
for private gain. With such a
policy in force we would not have
the spectacle of bankers spending
thousands of dollars to secure the
nomination for state treasurer
for their personal friends as was
done at Moscow last summer.
Yours in the democratic faith,
A. F. PARKER.
