cool $40O, 1000 by stopping at this
place and not building across the
prairie. It would not lose one
cents worth of business by it
either. Then when a connection
was made here with the P. & /.
N. the state would be provided
with a north and south road, the
rich mining sections would secure
their supplies from Sites or by
coming down the main Salmon
river to Pollock and the county
would be served almost as well
as if it had a railroad built
through every subdivision of it.
Observing persons also take
the actions of the railroad off
cials themselves to mean that
the road will not build any
further than this place. The
surveying party has been station
ed here for several months and
has done little work further than
the head of Grave creek canyon
where the other road, it is believ-
ed, will come out onto the prai-
rie. Many of the railroad Off
cials and contractors, who have
looked over the line from time to.
time, have come to this place and
then returned to the main line
and this leads many to believe
the road will not be built beyond
here until the north and south
connection is made.

Robbers Secure Over 500 in Money
Part Postal Funds
SHOOT AT REv. CAMpBELL
five Men We're in the Store and Thought
tIOId-up Was a Bluff

Another daring holdup of the
Greencreek store and postofice
occurred Monday evening and
the thieves got away with about
$10O after holding up five men in
the store and narrowly missing
killing Rev. Father Campbell, of
that place. AT the time of the
robbery E. w. Drees, proprietor
of the store, was sitting in his
store and Rev. Campbell, Ben
Krieger, Ben Westhoff and Syl-
vester Beckman were also there
engaging in a general CONVERSE
ton when the door opened and
two masked men entered and
commanded all present to throw
up their hands. Thinking twas
part of the charivari party re-
turning from the Schwartz we'd
ding and trying to play a joke
they were rather slow in comply
ing with the demand and one of
the robbers fired at Father Camp
bell, the bullet just grazing his
cheek and cutting away some of
his beard. When the shot was
fired all realized it was no joke
and. raised their hands. The
robbers then marched them to
the back end of the building and
after searching them rifled. the
money drawer and postoffice till
and then made their escape, go
ing east. Mr.. Drees, then tried
to telephone to this place but be-.
ing unable to get central sent in,
a man and word was then 'phon--
ed to the sheriff at Grangeville
and Deputies Blackburn and,
Pearson left at once for the scene
of the robbery.
The robbers were both ofmedi-
um size, one being slightly, taller
than the other, and! both were
dressed in ordinary clothing that
would furnish no clue as to their.
identity.
The money secured was about
$100 in all, Ben Westhoff con-.
tributing about 81. SO: Ben Krieg-.
er about $3.50; between $85 and
$40 being postal funds and the
rest being the store receipts for
the day,
Up to the time Of going to,
press no trace of the robbers has
been secured.

GrangevilIe Makes Absurd Statement
Regarding Crave Creek Route
SOAE UNDENIABLE FACTS
Strong Probability That the Road VIII
Not Cross the Prairie

In an effort to have all rail-
roads terminating at Grangeville
the correspondent to the Tribune
from that place in a late issue
says that the Grave creek route
is practically impossible owing
to heavy grades as, according to
reports, it would be necessary to
overcome a 5000 foot elevation.
in a distance of twelve miles.
We wish the correspondent
would kindly investigate before
sending out such damaging
stories and would ask him the
reason for the o. R. & N. sur
veyors making two surveys out
from Salmon river years ago by
way of Grave creek if the route
was so difficult and so much easi-
er routes could be secured toward
Grangeville.
We know this much as a posi-
tive fact. That if the P. & /. N.
road were to build down Salmon
river to the mouth of Rocky can
yon and follow up that stream
to the crossing into Grave creek
it would have a very easy grade
from the river up to the crossing
and then would be at an eleva-.
tion of between 1000 and ], 500
feet. Then to reach the prairie:
it would have to climb less than
1900 feet and by the grade it.
would take could make that
grade less than 2 per cent, which
would be easy compared with the
grade out of Culdesac, which is
3 per cent. The wagon road
now being built down the can
yon follows the creek bottom all
the way and does not encounter
over z or 8 per cent grade at
any point consequently the rail-
road could secure much lighter
grade the way it would build.
On the other hand if it were to
build out Rocky canyon to
Grangeville it would have to con-
struct between Is and 20 miles
of track through a rough country
and then practically parallel its
own track back 20 miles to this
place, thing railroads very sell
dom do. Our information re-
garding the country in question
has been CLEANED from old pion-
esrs who are familiar with every
foot Of the ground to be traver-
sed and all say it is the height
of folly to think the road would
pass up the Grave creek route in
order to build to Grangeville.
In fact, judging from a plain
business standpoint, it is quite
possible that Grangeville will not
get either road. If the N. P.
and P. & l. N. roads were to
connect at this place, which
many believe will be done, the
entire section of country would
be served equally as we'll from a
railroad standpoint. All freight
and traffic that did not go to this
road would be caught by the
Clearwater Short Line and the
railroad company would save a

south of KeutervilIe will be sold
at that time and as it is covered
with valuable saw timber and de-
sired by different mill men it is
liable to bring an exceedingly
good price. We understand the
timber will be sold for cash on
the day Of the sale to the highest
bidder and the land will be. sold
under the usual conditions.
The dam of a large fish pond
broke away above Kendrick on
Thursday of last week and the
water rushed down the canyon
and wrecked a warehouse owned
by the Vollmer-C Clearwater com
pany, destroying about 1900
sacks of grain and 100 tons of
hay.
The Waha-Lewiston Land and
Water company has extended it's
time for opening bids on con-
tracts for constructing canals,
bitches and reservoirs for twenty
or thirty days in order to enable
firms from outside cities to look
over the ground and file bids for
the work.
James McGrane this week pur-
chased of Tillman Bell at Lewis

paying the sum of 500, 600 for it.
The farm is located near the foot
of the Lewiston hill on the north

bout half a mile from the north
boundry line of the city.
Northern. Pacific Agent Jordan,
of Lewiston, has received word
from the general freight agent
that hereafter shipments of liq-

Will Advertise Cottonwood.

A number of the business men
met at w. L. Farnsworth's s office
last Friday evening to arrange
for advertising Cottonwood and
vicinity for the next few months
in an endeavor to attract some of
the eastern emigrants to this sec
ton. After various ways and
means of advertising were dis
cussed and meeting was then ad-
.journed until Thursday evening
in order to get prices on adver-
tising from different papers.
Before adjourning subscription
list, circulated and over S1OO rails
ed at the meeting and during the
week about that much more has,
been subscribed around town.
At the meeting last night it
was found $3.50 had been raised
and it was decided to use $175 of
this for newspaper advertising,
$37. so to help purchase a 5000
mile ticket for use on the Clear
water line to turn emigrants to
this place from Kamiah, 500 for
printing descriptive pamphlets
and SIS for stickers. COMMITTEES
were appointed to attend to each
of these methods of advertising
and as they will go to work at
once the public can soon expect
to see the results of their labor.
Word was received here yes
terday morning of the death of
Mrs. Otto Ries near Ferdinand
about 5 o'clock that morning
from an attack of heart failure
The lady was about so years of
age and had been suffering from
heart trouble for some time but
her sudden death came as a
great surprise to her family and
friends. She leaves a husband
and family of nearly grown
children to mourn her loss. The
deceased was highly esteemed in
the community where she lived
for her many fine qualities and
bore a reputation as the first to
offer aid and assistance where
ever needed in her neighborhood.
The funeral will be held at the
Ferdinand Catholic church to-
morrow.

ADVISE SALE OF PAUPER FARM
Grand Jury Has Made Such Recon-
msndation.

Sell the county pauper farm, turn
the cash proceeds into the treasury
and pension hereafter the county's
poor, is the important rec )mmendation
made by the grand Jury yesterday in
the general presentments. And such
suggestion will strike the taxpayers as
a wise and timely one. Sumter coun-
ty owns and operates a sIuable farm
for the benefit of very few mendi-
cants residing there, usual Y half
dozen decrepid old negroes. At the
same time the commissioners pay a
monthly stipend in cash to thrice that
number, who prefer the cash TO a resi-
dence at the poor house As there
are so few inmates at the farm this
grand jury recommended yesterday
the sale of the land and houses and the
pensionlng Of all the poor alike. The
farm will brig good price, and the
county commissioners will thus con-
slder the re commentator Ct the grand
