fought battle, battle that has ex-
tended over 20 years, between the
city of Occur d'Alene and the village
of Rathdrum, for the removal of the
county seat to this city came to
an end yesterday when the voters
of the county delivered their verdict
upon the issue, and gave vote
of 6197 in favor of Occur d'Alene,
and 2OO6 for Rathdrum, making a
majority of 4191 in favor Of this
city.
The county seat question was the
issue Of the day over the county, and
the issues between the two parties
were forgotten in the contest. The
returns were slow in coming in after
the polls had closed, and the peo-
pie were in state Of suspense as
to the result of the county seat
fight until about 10 o'clock, and then
the returns showed conelusively that
Occur d'Alene had won in the battle
by large majority.
AS soon as the announcement was
made that Occur d'Alene had been
victorious pandemonium broke loose.
The Occur d'Alene band appeared on
the street and commenced playing
some of its gayest airs. This was
a signal for the commencement of
the celebration of the victory by the
citizens, and men, women and child
rem seemed to go wild with excite
ment and enthusiasm. A procession
of citizens was formed behind the
band at the lower end of Sherman
street and it marched up to the new
city hall. The leaders of the pro-
cession carried on their shoulders a
miniature building, representing the
court house at Rathdrum and as the
procession paraded up the street,
throngs of men and women who had
congreated became enthused with the
spirit of those pars icipating in the
parade and joinedd in, and when it
reached the upper end of Sherman
street three-fourths of the people of
Occur d'Alene we're parading the
street jubilantly celebrating the city's
victory. Fireworks and cannon
crackers were set off and their re-
ports became deafening, the whistles
on the boats were blown and bells
were wrung, and after the length of
Sherman street had been paraded, the
yelling, bowling and surging crowd
took up its return march down the
street until the Occur d'Alene Bank
& Trust building was reached. Up
on arrival at this point the miniature
court house, supplied by e. Bjork-
lund, was deposited on the ground
and a match was touched to the
structure and it was consumed by
the flames. The crowd continued until
midnight when it was joined by the
Post Falls band and large dele
cation from that city.

That Doe Bill.

The Times is in receipt of a com
munication from NJ. j. Hapgood of
Peru, in which he appeals i'm the name
Of humanity and for the honor of the
State that the governor veto the BIZ
recently passed by both houses of the
legislature and which permits the
shooting of doe.
Mr. Hapgood's objections to this
bill are wholly sentimental, one, al
least verging on the historical; mot
being obliged to have a near approach
In order to determine sex, many will
be wounded to run off and die, and
human life will be doubly endanger-
ed" How a wounded doe running
off to die would endanger human life
he does not state; presumably In her
mad career she would trample the
life out of many hunters, and thus in
a measure play for even"
Mr. Hapgood states that in the
event of this bill becoming law.
owners of extensive tracts will post
their lands against hunting thus
creating a system of eXclusiyeness
and English" game preserves much
to be deprecated. We are OF the
opinion that the portion Of the state
constitution dealing with the right Of
the people to Ash and fowl" will
effectually prevent any too English
customs becoming the vogue In Yer
mont
Let us consider one or two reasons
why the increase of these animals,
judged by the ratio OF the last few
years, could In a few years more be
come an unmitigated nuisance. A
herd OF deer can In a single night put
a truck-patch in condition that
would arose the envy OF a drove OF
hogs. Surely the Vermont farmer
has enemies enough in early and late
frosts. drouths and hailstorms, with
out propogating an animal nuisance
to which fences are no deterrent, and
whose available meat supply is limit
ed to one week In the year. Hun
dreds Of farmers, who have made no
claim for damages have viewed, with
anything but complacency, the dam
age due 10 the rapid increase OF these
animals.
There us also class Of hunters
other than deer-hunters, TO be con
sIdered. notably those who have in
the past. taken their outings in com
pany with their fox hounds; these
have been compelled TO forego their
fayorite sport owing to the preya
lence of deer. A foX-hound, with
any value as a fox-hound, will soon
deterlorate into n well-trained deer
hound, II allowed to run In localities
frequented by deer; thus the FOX
hounds owner must cease TO hunt OF
constantly place himself In the posi-
ton OF a law-breaker.
These same fox.hunters, by the
way. are usually a genial, unseltisf
lot. willing to forego their own pleas
ures when any definite good seems tC
require It. but a murmur from then
has reached our ears In regard to this
deer question, and It is likely TO IN
crease in volume enough to be audible
to candidates for the legislature II
1910.
The deer Is and always has beer
olassed game animal, and like any
Iother wild animal. increased 10 undue
numbers will become a nuisance. i
these sentimentalists wish to propo
gate deer let them start a deer-park
No objections will be forthcoming
from the farmers or hunters, provid
ing they build their fences higl
enough to prevent their deer from
getting loose. Wilmington Times

To Remove Blue of Furniture.

Many housewives have been an
noyed by the cloudy, blue-gray look
which so often appears on mahogany
pianos and other pieces of highly pol
ished furniture. For removing such
an appearance one woman has very
successfully used a solution composed
of a tablespoonful of vinegar in a
quart of clear water. This applied
with a cheesecloth rag, first saturated
and then wrung out as dry as possible
The furniture is rubbed very lightly
with this and is then polished just as
lightly with a dry piece of cheese
cloth. If the first application is not
successful it may be tried again il a
week.

To Keen Lettuce Fresh.

By following the method given be-
low you can always have crisp. fresh
lettuce and rarely lose a leaf. AS
soon as it comes from the grocery
plunge it into cold water. The pan
must be large and deep enough to
cover it entirely and give it room to
swell After about six hours wash it
off under cold water; wrap it lightly
in damp towel, put it into fruit
basket use a grape basket with
out top or handle-and set it on the
shelf of the refrigerator. 1t will keep
for three or four days and be ready
Tor use at once.-Chicago Tribune.

NEGROES MAY USE "MR."
SUPERIOR COURT OF DELAWARE
OvERRULES TRIBUNAL WHICH
OBJECTED.

Wilmington, Del, July 81
Judge Spruance of the Superior
Court overruled the decision made
by Judge Edwin R. Cochran in the
Municipal Court a few days ago
that Negroes should not be alluded
to in his court with the prefix
"Mr., :" Mrs" or "Miss' to their
names. For persistence in doing
this, after being warned, Judge
Cochran imposed a fine of So on
Christopher Brooks, colored, a wit
ness in the court. In default OF the
fine Brooks was committed to the
workhouse.
In his opinion Judge Spruance
held that Judge Cochran had no
more right to make such ruling
applicable to Negroes in his court
than he would have to make it ap-
plicable to foreigners. He ordered
Brooks discharged from custody.
If Negroes of Delaware will sup
port the Republican ticket properly
such insults as the above will never
need legal or official adjustment
and the race in that state could
shortly boast of Negro lawyers
practicing in local courts, some
thing now unknown owing to Dem
ocratic rule.-Age.

States soon for Monrovia, Africa,
where he is sent as bishop of the west
coast of Africa. His remarks on AT

much information concerning the
Dark continent. A very excellent pa
per was read by Mrs. S. w. Turner,
Bishop Grant made a few remarks as
well as Rev. A. M. Ward. Miss Ber-

To Keep Away BUGS.

Make frames ~ inches square and
four inches deep from any pieces of
board at hand, or get a box from the
grocer and split it up for the purpose
Set frame over each hill of cucum-
bers or melons, and cover with piece
of glass. Amateur photographers who
have spoiled negatives on hand can
clean them in hot water and use them
for this purpose by tacking couple
of cross sticks over the top of the
frame to serve as rests for the small
glasses. This protects your vines
while the first leaves are forming
which is the time to look out for bugs
The glass, of course, must be removed
to let in air and moisture at the proper
times. By this method one can start
much earlier than usual and be sure
of protection from frost as well as
bugs.
