The Supreme Court held that the State

forests, and that the Tennessee Copper
Company and the Ducktown Sulphur and
Iron Company could be enjoined from so
conducting their smelling works on the
Tennessee side of the line as to destroy
forests and vegetation in the State of
Georgia. The court gives Georgia until
the October term to submit the form of
a decree with which it would enjoin the
operation of the smelters. In the mean
time the Objectionable companies are said
to be installing plant that will con-
dense the sulphurous fumes, and which

German State Bank Organized
PROMINENT FARMERS OF THIS SECTION ORGANIZE j
THIRD STRONG FINANCIAL INSTITUTION
FOR COTTONWOOD.

Waiting of all kinds finally
comes to an end and we have the
pleasure this week of announc-
ing to our readers the opening
Of another important enterprise
in our city-one which has been
under contemplation for several
weeks. We refer to the organ
ization Monday Of the German
State Bank, the third enterprise
of it's kind to be started in Cot
tonwood. The new bank starts
out with an Incorporated capital
of $25, 900, the stockholders and
directors of the institution being
H. H. Nuxoll, Barney ]. Stub
bers, j. B. Forsmann, F. G.
Nuxoll and Joseph Arnzen. Of
these H. H. Nuxoll is president,
Barney Stubbers, vice president
and j. B. Forsmann, secretary.
The new bank expects to open
it's doors for business about June
1st and for the present will be
located in H. H. Nuxoll's new
building on King street opposite
his former store. 1t will not re-
main here long, however, as a
new location has been secured in
the center of town, the directors
having closed a deal with the
Simon Bros. Monday for a piece
of their valuable corner property
on King and Main streets. AS
soon as convenient the bank will
erect a building on the new loca-
ton, which will have frontage
of % feet on King street and adj
join John Funke's building on
the south.
Regarding the personnel of the
new bank we can say it needs
but little introduction. H. H.
Nuxoll and Barney Stubbers
have been residents of this part
of Idaho county for the past 10
Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1907-04-19

years, having been in business
together here for a considerable
period Of that time, and are
known all over the county for
their honesty and upright deal
ings.
J. B. Forsmann is an old pion-
eer of this county and is known
to everyone. He is one of our
most substantial farmers and also
run a sawmill on the mountain
near this place for a number of
years. He was at one time a
member of the board of county
commissioners and has always
been prominent in county affairs.
F. G. Nuxoll is another pros
porous farmer, of Greencreek;
has been a resident of the prairie
for several years and was once
county commissioner from this
district.
Joseph Arnzen, while practic-
ally newcomer here, is not un-
known for many of our people
knew him in former years in
Illinois, where he has a reputa-
tion of having been one of the
most substantial citizens of his
county.
While the new bank will start
up in competition with two well
established institutions of the
kind it is certain of a liberal
patronage from the start and in
stead of dividing the business
now handled here will create
new business by drawing from a
larger territory and from the
confidence in it's officials will in
time be able to build up a flour
ishing trade. We are glad to
welcome its coming and feel sure
of its future, as its president
has informed us it is
HERE TO STAY.

Engineer Crosswell has just
returned from a trip over the
sac-Grangeville extension
and furnished some interesting
figures in connection with the
engineering features of the
monster bridge which will span
Lawyers canyon. Lawyers s
canyon bridge will be the largest
on the Northern Pacific system
and one. of the largest railroad
bridges in the United States.
The structure will be 1900 feet
in length and 275 feet high.
The steel alone will weigh $500
tons. Eight 100 foot girders
will be used in the construction,
each of which weighs 60 tons.
Three fiat cars were required to
transport the first girder from
the factory to Culdesac. Sixty
days will be required to put this
mass of steel in place, every part
of which was carefully adjusted
before it left the factory.
Mr.. Crosswell stated that the
track, two miles of which have
already been laid out Of Guide
sac, would reach this side of the
big canyon about the last of
August or the first of September.
All of the structural steel will
be taken to the bridge by the
work train. Counting the time
consumed in the erection of the
steel, Mr.. Crosswell figures that
the road will be completed into
Grangeville by next Christmas.
1t will be only a matter of a few
weeks in laying the rails across
the prairie, once the canyon is
bridged. Tribune.

Someone evidently having a
grudge against Geo. w. Goode
took a couple shots through the
window of his room above Sims
store sometime Sunday night.
Luckily the shots did no further
damage than to perforate the
big window in a couple places
and lodged in the oppsite wall.
The next day Goode had Harry
Blake arrested for doing the
shooting but when Blake entered
a plea of mot guilty" Goode in
formed the court he would not
appear against him and the case
was dismissed. 1t has since
been given out by some who
seem to know that Blake did not
do the shooting but just who did
do it has not been made public.
While no material damage re-
suited from the shooting all our
citizens heartily condemn the
action and if it was known who
did it summary action would no
doubt be taken. The room ad-
joining that of Goode was oc-
cupied by Mr.. Mckay and fami-
ly and had the shots gone little
wide Of their mark they could
easily have found unattended
victims. Such criminal reckless
ness will not be tolerated and if
repeated strong action will be
taken to locate the guilty party.

"
Felix Warren, of the Lewiston.
Cottonwood stage line, announc-
ed yesterday that on or about
the first of May he will begin a
daily stage service between
Lewiston and Grangeville, which
will also take in many of the
towns along the Culdesac-
Grangeville extension of the
Northern Pacific railroad. He
has ordered a new stage coach
which will be added to the equip
ment now being operated be-
tween Cottonwood and Lewiston.
AS outlined in the schedule ar
ranged by Mr.. Warren, the stage
will leave Lewiston every morn
ing at 5 o'clock, relays being
made at Tammany, Williams
stage station, Morrow, Ferdi-
nand, Cottonwood, Denver and
Grangeville. The 70 miles be-
tween Lewiston and Grangeville
being negotiated in 13 hours,
putting the passenger at the
prairie end of the line at 6 o'clock
in the evening. Returning the
coach will leave Grangeville at 5
or $50 o'clock, it being optional
with the people there.
Thirty six head of horses will
be used in posting between the
two cities. Mr.. Warren stated
that during the fruit season
should the express prove too
heavy for the regular stage
coach an extra coach would be
placed in service which would
make the trip straight through
to Grangeville.
The appearance of the North
western Stage company, which
has commenced operating a stage
line between Culdesac and
Grangeville, has prompted Mr..
Warren to extend his already
fine service from Cottonwood to
Grangeville by way of Ferdi-
nand. Tribune.
