The Two Travellers.
IA tablet


In bygone times 1t came to pass
A tall giraffe and a dwarfish ass
AS fellow travellers side by side
Were jogging through a country wide.
The ass was much inclined to smile
At his companions awkward style;
His great long legs to criticise
And at his neck express surprise
In short, to spare no cruel hit
Whereby he might display his wit
But as they moved the region through
The vegetation scarcer grew,
Until upon the sterile ground
But little else than stones were found,
And only on the tallest trees
Grew aught that could their hunger ease.
And there, with famine worn away,
The hungry ass was forced to stay
And watch his comrade eat the fruit
A dozen feet above the root
'sAh, me" he cried, mo more I'll chan,
Nor at your neck and figure laugh!
In truth, find now, after all,
I'd give my ears to be as TALL

promoter of the enterprise. The
stock has been subscribed in the
sum of $4,000, mostly hy ranchers

VIM. VanGasken has assisted
in pushing the enterprise TO a
large extent. In canvassing, it has
been found that there are 600 to
700 COWS in the valley, whose own

good number to start with

REMAIN IN JAIL

Caldwell, Idaho, May 31.-When
the cases Of Charles H. Meyer,
William D. Haywood and George
A. Pettibone, charged with the
murder of former Governor Frank
Steunenburg, came up in the dis

prosecution, acting upon the sug-

formal motion for a continuance
on the ground that the .habeas
corpus proceedings instituted in
the federal courts on behalf of the
defendants are still pending and
serve as a bar to further proceed

cision shall have been rendered by
the federal supreme court. Judge

TIE REPUBLICANS
OF KOOTENAI
Harmony and Enthusiasm Prevail at the Meeting
ofthe County Central Committee.

The Republican Central Com
mittee OF Kootenai county met at
at Rathdrum last Tuesday and
arranged the preliminaries for the
coming campaign. The meeting
was held in the opera house.
There were no dissentions in the
committee meeting. This was
somewhat remarkable in view Of the
harsh language that has appeared
in print against the chairman dur
ing the past two years. Chairman
Hoffman appears to have lost none
of his prestige, and the general
feeling is that although he will re-
tire from the Craftsmanship, ne will
continue to lead the Republicans
OF the county in the next cam
paign, with no more, and probably
less. opposition than has developed
in previous campaigns.
OF 46 precincts all but four were
represented. Harmony and good
feeling seemed to prevail, while
much enthusiasm was evidenced.
The COMMITTEES selected Occur d.
Alene for the county convention.
which is set for July "a. Primari-
es viii be held on July 9. 1t was
decided that representation should
be one delegate for every 80 votes
cast for Governor Gooding. The
apportion gives Occur d'Alene IS
delegates, Rathdrum 10, Standpoint
10, Harrison 8 and Bonners Ferry 6.
The question Of county division
came up, ana the following resolu-
ton was adopted;
"Whereas, 1t is the generally ex-
pressed opinion of the citizens pre-
sent that the size Of the county is
too great for the advantageous pro-
secution Of public business; there
fore be it
Resolved, That this committee
favors division at the earliest
practical time"

sympathy for Senator Hepburn on
account Of his illness wa. passed,

Cyclone at Triton
Howard Brown Gives a Vivid
Description Of the Effects
Of the Storm.

The following is an extract
from a letter from Howard
Brown, the photographer at Triton
to his parents in this city.
We pretty near blew away
here today. 1t had been raining
and blowing some all day and
about.9 O'Clock a hurricane came
along and blew down all the
trees across the street from me,
blew the porch clean off the Sec
ond house north of me, took the
roof clean off old Aunt Martha S
house, blew down or away all the
barns and chicken coops along
the alley, entirely wrecked the
Presbyterian church, entirely
demolished those buildings
where the Fairs were held, now
a sash, door and blind factory,
and blew away four houses on
the hill beyond. No one killed,
but a mum Der slightly hurt and
one man badly. lost two small
showcases, blown off of my front
porch the larger one lodged
around in the back yard and the
smaller one gone over to Ty Ty
| guess. I have not found it
yet. About $4,000 damage was
done here.
made some pictures of the
wrecks, developed, printed and
finished them and got them off
so that I think that they will APP
pear in the Atlanta Constitution
tomorrow. The pictures were
made, finished and ready to
send off inside of three hours
after the wreck. How was that
for quick work? I am just
writing this for fear that you
might hear of the storm and be
afraid that l was in it. Our
house was directly in the path of
the storm and got the full brunt
of it l guess but no damage was
done. I think the house was
racked some as I find that the
front door hangs now where it
used to open freely.
Yours Lovingly,
Howard.
