Councilman TO Fight Moving of Court
House Lights.

COunciImen 10 Fight Moving of Court
House Lights.
Il expect to sue out writ of injunction
Just as soon as i get out Of this election
business" was the statement Of Council
man Knudsen of the Fourth ward yester-
day, referring to the action OF the city
council Monday night in deciding to re-
move the electric light tower from the top
of the county court house and distribute
the four arc lights at street intersections
I'm that vicinity.
Councilman Knudsen was the only MEM
Der of the city council to vote against this
proposition and the other councilmen are
not worrying in the least over his threat
to take the matter into court, as they con-
slider that the city council has the au-
thority to locate the city lights where It
deems they will give the most service In
their opinion and have no fear that the
court will interfere.
Councilman Knudsen said yesterday:
while am the only member of the city
council who is in favor OF the retention
! of the lights as they are, am OF the belief
/ that the four lights on the court house not
! only do more good where they are than
they would at the locations named by the
4 city council If they are taken down the
difference will be noticed very quickly"

the abutting property owner refuses to

to tear out and remove the brick and use

been holding its meetings in the rooms Of
the Commercial club has secured other
quarters. 1t has arranged to use the office
OF Justice Gardiner next the southeast cor
ner Of Pearl street and First avenue.
The Commercial club refused to allow the
serving OF lunch in its rooms and the meet
ings OF the association without something
TO eat and drink became too formal to
suit many OF the members. "A cup OF
coffee and a sandwich, II nothing more,
goes a long way to make meetings such as
ours cOnvivial and enjoyable We men
who spend most Of our time i'm our stores
need little relaxation and when we moved
into the rooms OF the Commercial club we
greatly missed the lunches we used to
have at our sessions" explained one OF
the officers OF the association yesterday.

The call for the regular monthly meeting
OF the membership of the Commercial club
this evening at the club rooms has been
issued by Secretary Reed. Efforts to hold
the two or three previous monthly meet
ings failed for want OF a quorum on each
occasion. A new executive committee
should have been elected three months ago,
but failure to secure a quorum at any OF
the meetings prevented it. A new commit
tee may be elected tonight il the attend
ance is sufficient, although there is a feel
ing now that it might be best for the
old executive committee 10 continue In Of

100000 Wanted.

The Juliaetta Journal says: The
people of this section are beginning to
realize that the trout in the Potlatch
are disappearing at an alarming rate,
and knowing what great sport it is to
catch them, and believing that if each
taxpayer Of the county had place
handy where he could take a fishing
excursion of about ten days or two
weeks each year it would add years to
his life, have made up their minds to
ask the county for an appropriation Of
800, 900 for the purpose of establishing
fish hatchery here.
1t would be great for the tax payers
and would help our town.
Honestly don't you think we should
NOT have it?

Visited The Silver King.

1t has been learned that the recent
visit of Jno. P. Vollmer of Lewiston, to
his Ruby Creek mining property was
for the purpose Of having the same
examined and passed upon by no less
a mining authority than F. w. Bradley,
of San Francisco, one of the most
successful and noted mining men in
the United States. Mr.. Bradley
accompanied Mr.. Vollmer from Troy
and the trip was made by buggy. 1t
is also reported that Mr.. Bradley, after
thoroughly examining the Silver King,
pronounced it fine property, and if so
it is pretty good evidence that Latah
county will some day have a mining
camp that will add considerably to the
wealth OF this section.

New Passenger Engines.

Thirty huge Pacific type engines now
being placed in service are, with few
exceptions, the heaviest and most
powerful in the world. Each is
seventy-fve feet long, weighs 1877 tons,
with drive-wheels seventy-four inches
in diameter. The boiler tubes are
twenty-one feet in length-the longest
ever used in a locomotive. Each
tender holds 10000 pounds of coal,
and 5000 gallons of water. These
engines were made necessary by faster
schedules, and the increased length
and weight of trains. Their use will
maintain the Burlington's established
reputation Of running passenger trains

An Unjust Law.

The law compelling teachers to
attend the annual institutes is one CT
the most unfair and unjust pieces OF
legislation now on the law books of
this state. 1t is so from the fact that
it places a burden upon the shoulders
of the average teacher that cannot we'll
be carried at the present rate OF wages.
The institutes are all very well but if
the county and state compel attendance
then let the county or state pay a
portion, at least, of the necessary ex-
penses. This would be just for the
reason that attendance is required on
the broad ground of public necessity.
The institutes make better teachers,
and therefore better schools and as this
all results in beneftting the whole
public why not let the cost be borne
equally by all the people? If the
present law is just then it would be
just to compel harvest hands to spend
about ten dollars each year attending q
convention where the art of pitching
hay or milching cows was given specia
attention. Instead of driving men and
women of ability out Of the profession
why not induce the best Of them tC
make it life's work.

Don I Like Frisco.

H. Enholm, who left Troy |
about May first for San Fran
cisco, came home this week |
thoroughly convinced that La
tah county is good enough for
him. He worked at the carpen-
ter trade and found plenty of
labor at $3.50 per day and dou-
BILE time for overtime and Sun
days. The last two weeks he
was there he made $40 per week.
But he was sick and was glad to
get away. Says he went through
ten or twelve shocks during his
stay, and that the tremblers
come continually. He didn't
like it. The poorest kind of
meal costs % or 30 cents down
town and he was compelled to 90
out four miles to find board at
$50 per month. By taking his
dinner with him and making the
trip once a day he was out So
a month more. Everything is
eXhOrbitant, even lemons and
oranges, the latter costing more
than they do in Spokane. Bread
is now ten cents a loaf. He says
the water is something fierce,
rand the general health condition
is very bad. People were dis
couraged and he thought they
would leave at the first oppor-
tunity. Little has yet been done
to clean up, only the middle of
the streets being cleared for
traffic. To get to one of the
banks he had to climb over a
pile of brick twenty feet high,
and at the time he left no build
ing of a permanent nature was
under way. He thinks Frisco
will never be rebuilt. Will never
be what it was. dwellings, have
been turned into business houses
in the business districts and only
temporary structures have gone
up in the business district. He
says the people complained OF
the way the relief supplies had
been handled, it being the opin-
ion that the money and supplies
had been stolen by the commit
tees and that a few had made
millions out of the disaster. Nc
one seemed to know what be-
came of the money and supplies.
He cited instances where the
authorities were conducting res.

charging the public full price fol

Dear Mr.. Editor:-A lady wants
to say a few words to the grocery
merchants and it is really such a del
icate matter to handle. You know it
is now time when our grocerymen set
their vegetables out on the pavement
and-and you know there are so
many tall dogs in town. Now, Mr..
Editor you must know what 1 want to
say, and if you will help me out you
will do the public favor. What we
want is the vegetables set on boxes,
or in other words, above high water
mark, for the good of women and
mankind. Those wire screens they
use over baskets and barrels are not
water tight. This is delicate mat
ter but you know when ladies &c
shopping for cabbage and beets they
don't like to be obliged to take peas
also. Please put in shape so as tc
