Caught a Blk.

Through the alertness OF County
School Superintendent Davis several
school districts of Latah county have
been saved from we'll calculated
schemes to relieve the district funds
of considerable hard cash. A gentle
man, calling himslf, w. L. O'Malley,
and purporting to represent a St. Paul
Co., that manufacture the National
Series Chart for schools, started to
canvass this county last fall and sue
ceeded in selling several at the hand
some price of SOS per set. County
School Superintendent Davis met the
man and examined his chart. She
mistrusted him because, as she told
him, the charts were not worth SOS,
OF anything like it. Then she insisted
and Mr.. O'Malley consented to sign a
contract to the effect that his contracts
with Latah county districts would be
void if his price was not in accord with
the price quoted for these charts by
the St. Paul manufacturers. O'Malley
signed and then skipped, and further
investigation showed that the charts
which were being sold by O'Malley
were listed by the company at St.
Paul for just So per set, and that
O'Malley was working holdup game
that would have netted him some
$50 easy money on each deal, after
getting his first commission and set
ting freight bills.

Hurt a Horse.

Geo. Carlson, while breaking road
in the timber four miles north of town
Tuesday evening, got one of his
horses badly crippled. He had driven
the team over the ground once but on
the second trip one of the animals fell
and in her struggle to get up struck
her left front leg with a hind foot.
The cork went in just above and back
of the knee and then tore around the
inside and down the limb to the fet-
lock joint. No leaders or blood
vessels were cut but the skin was
horribly torn and the animal laid up
for several months. AS soon as posi-
BILE Mr.. Carlson brought the injured
mare to Troy and was fortunate
enough to find DR.. Brown, the veter-
nary at Jones' barn, where the best Of
attention was given the injured leg.

Try 1t.
nent tour.

Do you know that it pays to curry
mich COWS? Well, it does, and in
addition to more and better milk it is
good for the COW. Dairymen have
long recognized this fact and if
it pays professional dairy men it will
pay the keeper of only one COW. But
even if no other good will result for
the sake of cleanliness it will pay.
Personally The News editor has tried
this plan for the past four years and
can recommend it. Make raised
platform just long enough to accom-
modate the animal and then supply
plenty of bedding and the currying
will require only few minutes. AS
has been often said no COW will do her
best unless treated with kindness,
plenty of good feed, and good pure
water, and of these kindness is ol
much importance. Just try it.

Another Medal.

The News was informed yesterday
by J. F. Ogden that Idaho pine land
had scored another point in the list of
honors at the Lewis and Clark expo
sition and in proof of his assertion pro-
duced diploma which called for a
silver medal for sheaf wheat and oats
which he sent to Portland picture of
which was printed in The Troy News
last fall. The wheat, two samples,
was raised by Henry Anderson on
Little Bear Ridge and M. Bergerson
on American ridge, while the oats
were from Joshua Lanphear at Jansville
and Joe Perry three miles north Of
Troy. All this magnificent grain was
raised on Latah county pine land and
ought to be the best kind of evidence
of what the timbered land around
Troy will do when put under cultiva-
ton.

What pays ? 1t pays to trade
where you have confidence in
the merchant. The customer does
not like to feel that he must be con-
stantly on his guard against deception,
and look upon every article with sus-
picion. It is not pleasant to feel that
you cannot place confidence in the
dealer. Nothing is more disappoint-
ing than to find merchandise sold as
substantial is mere shoddy. While
nothing makes one feel better than
the knowledge that garment is just
as represented. That is why it pays
to trade in Troy. Our merchants
take pride in the fact that their goods
can be sold on their merit and know
the result will be satisfied customer.
Troy merchants have never tried to
make fortune on the get rich
quick" order. But they have long
since established "a reputation
for square dealing that has made
and held customers. And while
prices have always been away down,
quality has been away up and Troy has
prospered. 1t isn't what you pay for
an article that determines its cheap
ness, but the quality. For example
the most expensive suit of clothes the
writer ever purchased cost less than
SO while one bought Of Troy mer-
chant at $40 has been worn almost a
year and is still good. The first suit
was advertised as a great bargain by a
Latah county merchant, the other was
sold by a Troy merchant under a
guarantee that it would give satisfac-
ton. 1t has. The same is true of
shoes. Tuesday of this week The
News editor delivered some work to a
Troy store and while there a customer
purchased a pair of shoes at fair price
but with these shoes went the mer-
chants word that if the shoes were
not satisfactory he would make them
good" The customer said: That
is alright but you will never have to
make good because am now wearing
pair of these same shoes which you
sold me year ago and they were
good" Yet the price was no higher
than is asked for cheap things called
shoes, sold Cheap" by some mer-
chants who back their business up by
wind and who make enough profit
to enable them to retire or move to
Spokane within few years. 1t will
pay you to trade in Troy. Try it.

Official County Paper.

The Troy News is now the official
paper Of Latah county, having been
so declared by the county board at the
last moment of the session last Satur-
day. For the first time in the history
of Latah county this work, which in
cludes not only the commissioners
proceedings but the joint reports Of
the county treasurer and the auditor
are to be published by a paper outside
the county seat. It was plain 10 the
commissioners that The Troy News
must be recognized and while there
was feeling that this work ought to
be kept at the county seat, our bid
which was very much lower than all
others, could not we'll be turned down.
And we got it. Got it at a figure 90
per cent below all competition and at a
saving of several dollars 10 the tax
payers of Latah county. At the figure
we have accepted this work no profit
can be made, fact of which The
Troy News was aware when we put in
its bid, but as this fact alone concerns
us the taxpayers who foot the county S
printing bills need do no worrying.
We shall hire man for that purpose.
This means something to Troy. It
means larger circulation for the
News, and in turn a better opportun-
ity to boost for our progressive little
town. 1t means that the local paper
will, by having more readers and in
creased influence be better able
to spread the great truth that
Troy is the biggest little town on earth
and the best trading point in Latah
county. 1t will enable The News tc
grow, and as we grow to be of in
creased value to this community. II
means whole lot and we are more
than glad to be able to break this
news to our readers this week. We
have not yet received the proceed
ings from the auditor but will have
them in time for our next publication
Several hundred extra copies will be
printed.

Lost His Cash

D. B. Whitesel arrived in Troy Sun
day from Bemidge, Mimi, and put up
at the Monroe house. Monday morning
Mr.. Whitesel lost his purse containing
$140, having dropped it out of his
pocket in the toilet. A few moments
later Bert Curtis was seen to enter the
place and afterwards flashed consider
able cash. Mr.. Whitesel soon dis
covered his loss but by that time
Young Curtis had started by team for
Moscow where he was arrested. The
inside of the county Jail apparently
caused young Curtis 10 come to his
senses and with the hope of getting
out of the mess he broke down and
confessed. One hundred and ten
dollars he had cached with Mrs. S.
Pruyne before leaving Troy and this
with $24.70 found on his person, was
recovered. A four dollar meal ticket
purchased at the Monroe house just
before his departure will leave Mr..
Whitesel only about three dollars short
and with this he is entirely satisfied.
Much credit is due Deputy Sheriff
Grant Robbins, who had the case in
charge, and he has received many
compliments for his work. Curtis
will probably be given a sentence in
the county Jail.

New Saw Mill.

The Franzich Saw Mill Co., is the
latest venture in the lumber industry
in this district. The mill is located on
Big Bear ridge and will have capac-
ity of 10000 feet per day. Ole
Bohman was in Spokane last week and
purchased the machinery. This
company has some eight million feet
of available timber and with such men
as Mr.. Behman back of it will be a
financial success from the start.
