Settlers Must
Pay For Land
Classification Of Land Being Made
on Occur d'AIene Reservation
Which Will be Opened for En-
try Next Fall.

Following is the detail OF
classification of lands in the
Occur d'Alene Indian reservation
opening next fall:
The reservation lands will be
classed after the allotment to the
Indians as agricultural, grazing
or timber lands. All will be
open for homestead, but stone
and timber filing will not be
applicable. The filing fees will
amount to $40 per 100 acres.
However, in addition to the
filing fees each homesteader will
be required to pay the appraised
value of the land, amounting to
only a nominal figure probably
not more than $5 an acre. The
greatest price paid for Nez
Perce lands did not exceed So. rs
an acre, and the mile strip near
Harrison has never exceeded 81. SO
an acre, while the average would
not exceed $3.50. The payments
are one-ffth cash at five equal
annual installments. Should
time of entry and the remainder
in payments fail to be made, the
land reyerts to the govern
ment. Lands classed as timber
lands may not be commuted; all
others may by paying the APP
praised value.
No one knows when or the
manner the lands will be opened
for settlement.
Some of these lands include the
very choicest of wheat lands,
some having been put under
cultivation by the Indians for
years. The timber lands are
considered much more valuable,
but they will require five years
actual residence before the
patent is obtainable. Some of
the timber land is close to the
lake and streams, which will
make good quarter section
worth from $40, 900 to $40, 900.

A Rather Unpleasant Dip.

Ray Bartlett came in Sunday
evening from Lewiston with anoth-
er load of freight and reports a
rather unpleasant experience while
crossing Craig Mountain that day.
At one point an ice jam had
backed the water up under the ice
and snow in a ravine and when he
drove in his sled cut through the
ice and several of his horses got
down in the ice and snow. The
water was so deep that it ran
about two feet over the top of his
sled and rack and he was forced to
get out and work for over an hour,
up almost to his neck in ice cold
water, before he could cut and
shovel out road and get his load
out Of the stream. Then came the
rest of the trip home in wet CLOTH
ing which was really worse than
working in the water, but he
was around again Monday and
seemed none the worse for his
enforced bath.

Ezra Meckcr
Completes His Trip
Old Pioneer Travels Back Over
Old Oregon Trail With OK Team
and Prairie Schooner to Indian-
apOlIs.

A dispatch from indianapolis,
Ind, a few days ago announced
that Ezra Meeker, the old pioneer
Of Washington who left on the
back track of the old Oregon
trail nearly a year ago, with an
OK team and a prairie schooner,
has arrived in indianapolis,
which was his point of destina-
ton. Mr.. Meeker is quoted as
saying his trip was a decided
success. Many monuments were
erected along the old trail trav-
ersed 55 years before. For
hundreds of miles he followed
the identical trail traversed by
the pioneers coming to the
Northwest, it being still plainly
visible in places. He expressed
himself well satisfied that the
accomplishment of the work he
started out to do is going on, and
it will not be long until the old
way he travelled so many years
ago will be bordered with beauti-
full shafts of marble and granite,
properly inscribed. II have a
good home at Puyallup," Mr..
Meeker is quoted as saying, and
/ hope to go back there and en-
joy myself during my declining
years. Next May / will cele-
brate my 56th wedding ami
versary. The good woman who
journeyed with me across the
plains is still enjoying good
health and happiness, and we
take pleasure in everything our
children propose. Genesee

Flag Pole Taken Down.

By order of the city council
the big flag pole which has stood
on the corner of Main and King
streets in front Of Goldstone's s
store for the past twelve years
was taken down and from its
high peak the stars and stripes
will float no longer. Quite a
crowd of citizens gathered on
the street to see the big pole
brought to earth and among
them were many who helped to
put the big pole in place more
than a decade ago.
The flag pole was erected by
popular subscription about
twelve years ago and was
brought down from the noun
tain by the Brownlee brothers.
1t was originally 118 feet in
length but was too long to get
out of the mountain and was cut
off some but still lowered some
ninety feet in the air when in
place. Fear that it was becom-
ing rotten and might blow down
and cause considerable damage
was responsible for its removal.

now for place to display our

likely a pole will be erected for
that purpose on top of some of
the sky scraper buildings to be
built here next summer.
