long noses are not confined to the

We would be the last man in

or trying to hinder the arrest Of

like child's play for the mayor

I'D cases for the superior court to
turn loose, as has been the case
heretofore. Of course some have
been sentenced, but the majority
of cases worked up amount only
to the costs Of the case and fees
that are paid to the lawyers that
appear in them. There is nc
more common sense in making
six or seven cases against one

1T is said that there is a COM
bine between Democratic poll
ticians in the Fifth District, and
that they plan how all the of
fees are to be distributed long
before the time for the election.
When this charge was made by
a Republican paper it was said
to be a lie, but events have shown
that said paper was doing some
guessing. Combines are all
right if you happento be on the
inside, but otherwise they are
robbers. If there is a combine
between Democrats in the Fifth

some fellow will become disgrunt-
led and tell all that he knows be-
cause he does not get all that is

In crlticising a special order OF the

of forest reserves had raised the price
OF wood for fuel in his state 10 per
cent aud the price Of lumber generally
from So to SIS a thousand feet. He
said 5000. 900 acres Of land in Idaho

MUST PAY FOR land
On Indian Reservation When
Settled.
WILL Be APPRAISED.
Homestead d Filings Only Will be
Applicable.

Following is the detail of classi-
fcation Of lands in the Occur
d'Alene Indian reservation opening
next fall:
The re servation lands will be
classed after the allotment to the
Indians as agricultural, grazing or
timber lands. All will be open for
homestea d. but stone and timber
filing will not be applicable. The
filing fee will amount to $22 per
100 acres. However, in addition
to the filing fees each homesteader
will be required to pay the apprais-
ed value of the land, amounting to
only nominal figure-probably
not more than rs an acre. The
greatest price paid for the Nez
Perce lands did not exceed 1915
an acre, and the mile strip near
Harrison has never exceeded $4.99
an acre, while the average would
not exceed $2.5o. The payments
are one fifth cash at time of entry
and the remainder in FIVE equa
| annual installments. Should pay
ments fail to be made, the lane
reverts to the government. Lands
classed as timber lands may no
be commuted; all others may b.
paying the appraised value.
| No one knows when or tn
manner the lands will be opene'
for settlement.
Som OF these lands include tn
very choicest wheat lands, som
;having been put under cultivatio
/ by the Indians for years. Th
timber lands are considered muc
more V valuable, but they will re
quirc FIVE years actual residenc
: before the patent is obtainabl'
) Some Of the timber is close to til
lake and streams, which will max

THE PRESIDENTS TIME.
How President Roosevelt Spends
His Strenuous Days.

The current issue of Success
contains an account Of how
President Roosevelt's time is
spent:
"The busiest man in the ex-
ecutive branch of the Government
is the President himself. He de-
mands faithful, intelligent, and
industrious service from his SUBJ
ordinates but he sets them a
splendid example. :. The Pres
ident puts in much more time for
the Government. He is at his
desk at the Executive Offices at
9:3o a. m. There he remains, with
every moment occupied, until, at
1890 p. M, he tears himself away
from admiring countrymen, many
of whom ask only the privilege OF
shaking his hand.
Gas a rule there are guests at
luncheon, and then there is range
of discussion which would tire the
mind of any ordinary man, were he
master of ceremonies. At 2:4i
Mr.. Roosevelt is again at his desk,
where he remains, hard at work,
until he leaves at four to enjoy
some form of health giving exer
else out of doors. He returns te
his Office soon after six, and there
is more government work unit
7:45, when he hurries away to dres'
for dinner.
"The preparation of state paper
including messages to Congress
and executive memoranda, ant
public addresses, is done entirel
after o:3o p. m. 1t is at this time
moreover, that he must do his ex
haustive reading, and must practic
the avocation which he has alway
loved, of literary crafts
man."
