kOOSKIA
(From Mountaipeer !

Robert Kyle and AL Brigham
made a trip to Lewiston this week.
They represented the Belgian
Horse Co. Of Tahoe, the members
OF which claim they were swindled
oy the concern that sold them the
big Belgian horse, "Marcus. !"
The horse died this spring and the
horse dealers refuse to deliver an.
other horse or pay over the insur-
ance, and q lawsuit may follow.
AL Brigham informs US that he
will start a crew up river the first
OF the week to cut q lot OF single
material and prepare for q long
fall run, having purchased the
Young Bros. mill in East Kooskia.
He will put in some new machin.
cry and it is his intention to cary
on the single business on . more
extensive scale than ever before at.
tempted in the Clearwater region.
This is certainly good point for
such an industry, and when
material is so cheap and plentiful
an experienced shingle man is
bound to do we'll.
An order has been issued forbid
ding the sale of newspapers on all
Northern Pacific trains, including
the Clearwater line. Whoever Il
responsible for this fool law ought
to he run through a printing press
and then tackled up on bill board
and properly labelled.
1t may be q bad thing for an ed.
jtor to have opinions OF his own on
public matters, and express them
in his own paper. from q financial
point OF view, but. the editor o.
this paper is going to express hi
own opinions Of men and measures
if he dosent lay up cent. Clear
cut opinions, honestly expressed
are what the people want, ant
that's what they'll always get from
US. The man who can beat that
game, whether he holds q county,
state or federal position, will have
to deal from the bottom.

Shall and WIN.


Shall and will are used as auxil-
1aries in the simple future tense as
follows: II shall, thou wilt, he will,
we shall, you will, they will" AS
auxiliaries expressing q determine
tton' threat, command or permission,
their use Is precisely the opposite,
as follows: II will, thou shalt. he
shall, we will, you shall, they shall"
The exceptions are numerous and the
distinction between the two forms
constitutes one Of the most difficult
things in the language for the for
eigner to master. For instance, the
form of the absolute future may be
chosen to express determination in a
prophetic way, as you will rue this"
On the other hand, the imperative
form may be used in foretelling to i'm
ply a wish or an opinion Of the speak
er, as they shall all get their de-
serts." In the United States shall is
being supplied by will.
