Western People Buying Heavi.

MARK HOWE MAKES BIG SALES
BelIingham RanChers Buy g
Section of Land.

1t is some times said that it takes
western man who is familiar with
the country to realize the true
worth OF the land and whether or
not this remark is true we do not
know but one thing sure is that
the people of the Pacific coast who
come to look over Idaho county
invariably buy before leaving.
People from the outside have been
coming in this winter in numbers
greatly in excess of former years
to look over the country and city
property. Many sales of land
have been made by the real estate
men to western people during the
past year. Washington, Montana
and Colorado people have been
buying largely through the A. F.
Parker agency and more recently
large number from the Sound
country have been looking over
the country.
This week parties from Belling-
ham have been looking over the
country and through the Mark
Howe agency have purchased four
quarter sections. The party, con-
sisting of W. w. Hatch, w. A
Holman, w. l.. Moon and @. A.
PangbOrn, prominent ranchers OF
near Bellingham, are well pleased
with the country and just to show
their faith have secured some valu-
able holdings.
Three quarter sections belonging
to Jesse K. Turner have been pur-
chased and an excellent quarter OF
P. Curton's was also sold.
Considerable Portland capital
has been seeking investments in
city property of late. and during
the past several weeks parties from
Spokane have been looking over
some blocks in the city and general.
ly speaking things are looking bet
ter for the real estate men.

LOSES HIS CASE.
Court Thinks Vineyard Not
Police Judge.
DECISION SUGGESTS APPEAL
Wants Supreme Court to Make
Final Decision.

The Police Court case, an action
in which Judge Vineyard asked
writ of mandate compelling the
city council of Grangeville to pay
him salary as police Judge, has
been decided adversely to said
Vineyard. The case was SUBJ
mitted on an application for
writ of mandate at Lewiston sever
al weeks ago in Judge Steele's
Court.
In the decision the Court says:
"This is clearly a cause that
should be submitted to the Supreme
Court for decision in order that
there may be uniformity of action
in the different city governments
throughout the state. l feel that
this legislative act, which is asksed
to be annuled by the trial Court,
should not be declared invalid.
And further state that original
proceedings can be had in the Su-
preme Court which, in such matters
has original jurisdiction"
We understand Judge Vineyard
will follow the Courts suggestion
and lose no time in securing final
disposition of the matter by o de-
cision in the states highert Court.

It is natural for one to think
well of the country from which he
halls; especially is this true when
it is a country with resources far
above the average. Back in the
central portion of Iowa there is a
county-Ceder county-which the
writer is more or less familiar
with. Taking it from the citizens
OF that county, there are but
few places in the United States its
superior from an agricultural
standpoint.
With the writer's advent in
this county he heard SO many re-
markable stories of the produc.
tiveness of the Camas Prairie he
concluded this was place superior
to Ceder county, Iowa, or else
there were some past -masters of the
art Of wind-jamming here. We
have been here year but during
that time we have come to realize
the truthfulness Of the statements
of those who have come before.
The yields reported are abso-
lutely true, the statements made
regarding the vast resources and
productiveness of Camas Prairie
are not misrepresentation. We
know of no other place either in
the central west or Pacific coast
that presents the advantages this
place does to the farmer.
just the other day we had the
pleasure of interviewing another
former Iowa man who halls from
Ceder county, viz, Andrew Aul-
dridge, who came here some six
weeks ago from Howard, Kansas,
to make a visit at the home of his
son, D. F. Auldridge, Of the
Leader. Mr.. Auldridge lived
