Get Your Gun Ready for This Chap

An impostor under the name of
an eye doctor, is reported to this
office as having just passed through
portions of Oconee, Pickens and
Anderson counties in a great hurry
selling brass frame spectacles for so
that can be bought anywhere for 81
to 81 so each. His plan of getting
start in a section is to learn the
name of a prominent physician aud
a few good men in the country. He
first succeeds in making some prom
inent mer believe, by lying, that the
prominent doctor has sent him-the
eye doctor-to fit him up with $40
pair of glasses. When this sale has
been made this circulating eye doc
tor has this good mans name to use
on the next good man, and a kind
of endless chain, rapid moving bust
ness is on. The family actually
s3ld sometimes as much as $40
worth to families in sight of each
other. "Get your gun, johnny
Don't kill him or break any bones,
for it would bea pity to take the
time of good men to either wait on
or bury such a scamp. But when
you get him on the retreat down the

bird shot on the soft part just be-
low the tip..pockets; this counter-irl-
taut will not only encourage him
on his way bat it will make it more
comfortable walking than sitting
down for many days, which will
keep him walking. Don't be afraid
of him lawing you; such'scamps can
never afford to risk the law.

Watch the silent bull dog creep

But never mind about the much
barking fee parading around in

kind among men are common; the
big fellows get together in secret
meetings and conspire to rob the
farmer, and the only way the farm
er has to keep them from doing it IS
for farmers to get together in secret
meetings and devise plans to pro-
tect farmers interest against all the

The forest reserve force that have
been engaged during the summer In
the work of clearing out the old Lolo
trail and widening 1t to its original
width of 20 feet have returned from
the field for the winter, says the
Lewiston Tribune. The force will
go out again In the spring and 1t ID
believed the work can be entirely
completed by next fall.
When this work is finished It will
be the third time the trail has been
cleared out and widened. There is a
general impression that the only time
the trail has been worked was upon
the occasion of General Howard's
chase after Chief Joheph, who re-
treated over the trail into Montana
during the Nez Perce war.
Howard at that time improved the
trail for the accommodation of his
forces, but the trail was first given
attention in the way of improvement
In 1866 when the government made
an appropriation of $4,000 for the
work.
The work was placed under con-
troll of Lieutenant Nichols of the u.
s. army, and cost $4,000 The bal
ance of the funds. $4,000, was re-
turned to the treasury and this fact
at the time caused expressions OF
general surprise throughout the
country for in those days it was not
the custom to return any money to
Uncle Sam that had been set aside for
western contracts.
The original starting point of the
historic trail was at Kamiah and 1t
followed the high ridges through the
Bitter Root mountain country to
Montana, the Montana end being al
the mouth of Lolo creek in the Bit,
ter Root valley. The divide was
crossed at what Is known as Lolo
pass.
In the early days of the placer
stampedes the trail was the highway
for the thousands of miners who were
then exploring this section of the
west. Lieutenant Nichols placed the
trail on an easy grade by avoiding
the steep climbs that had been taken
by the Indians and the forest reserve
| people are following out the same
plan.
With the work now receiving at
tention completed, It is very probable
that the trail will prove attractive for
the hundreds of people of this section
who annually go into the mountains
for a summer outing. 1t will afford
convenient access to one of the Wild
est and most picturesque regions in
all the west.
Following the higher mountain
ranges from the trail grand views are
afforded, while it traverses a big
game country and hundreds of trout
streams. The trail is over one hun
dred miles in length. About 80 miles
were cleared out by the forest reserv.
men the summer just closed.
