Long Valley advocate. (Lardo, Idaho) 1904-1907, 1906-11-22
NOVEMBER %, 1906.
MEANNESS OR IGNORANCE.

Henry Ransier, who settled here
this summer and bought lake shore
property, was expecting a brother,
T. A. Ransier, and Luther Estes
to arrive here from Cleveland,
Wash, and wondered why they did
not come. This was explained in
a letter received by him recently,
in which his brother stated that
they came as far as Council, on the
10th inst, where they were per-
suaded not to venture further by
being told that they would probably
be showed in and not be able to get
out of the valley again this winter,
that the mail was carried on snow
shoes which was the only way of
getting in or out of the valley in
winter. The gentlemen named
only intended visiting here about
two weeks, during which time they
expected to purchase places upon
which to move next spring. They
had left their families behind, and,
accepting the statements made to
them at Council as true, they turn
ed back after coming within forty
miles of their destination because
they were afraid of being separated
from their homes for the winter.
Who the parties are who so
wilfully or ignorantly lied to them
we do not know, neither the object
which prompted them, but we do
know that such a course is very
reprehensible and does a great deal
of harm to Long valley, and Coun-
Gil as we'll. People with the best
interests of Council at heart would
not lie in this manner, because they
know that the upbuilding of Long
valley will benefit Council and the
upper end of Washington county.
Long valley was for many years
misrepresented by some people for
selfish purposes, the main idea be-
ing to hold back settlement in or
der to keep the country for graz
ing grounds. Since the settlement
of the valley by great number of
energetic, enterprising and thrifty
farmers, it is becoming known as
one of the most desirable of places
to live, and roads over the noun
tain between here and Council (via
Meadows) are kept open for sleigh
travel all winter. Snow does not
fall to much extent until after
Christmas as rule. At the pres
ent time there is a light covering
Of less than one inch of snow in
sheltered places, most of the valley
heinp hare of snow. and we are en-

inclined TO advance in the early deal
ings IN stocks here. The market was
free from any urgent pressure Of Ii
quotation and there was sufficient out
standing short interest to affect prices
in a rising direction The money
market also appeared tranquil during
the early hours OF the trading. From
7 per cent. the rate ran off 10 s per

that the rate rose again. The forn;d-

An interesting bit OF romance was

and is doubtless the sequel to a sum-
mer spent amid the inspiring scenery
among the mountains and along the
shores Of the beautiful French Broad
near Asheville. While seated at the
table and partaking Of a sumptuous
yule-tide repast At the h~ospitable
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. English,
on Main street, Mr.. Albert s. Grady,
a prominent lawyer of Mt Olive. who
was one of the guests, gracefully

their marriage Il profound secret until
