SALE OF STATE LAND
Auction of Kootenai County Land
Brings $4,000.

State Land Commissioner c. /.
Munson of Moscow, with his assis-
tant and clerk, E. A. Fisher, con-
Quoted the state land sale in
Rathdrum last Friday. A total Of
1851 acres were sold, bringing
$22, ,3I4.72, an average value Of
$16.51 per acre. Most of the land
sold was agricultural and fruit land.
Some of it has timber standing,
and few tracts on lake fronts are
fit only for residence purposes.
Lake front lands seemed to be in
strong demand. A small tract on
Hayden lake, appraised at $40 an
acre sold at $I56 an acre, the
largest price paid at this sale. A
small tract on Pend d'Oreille lake
brought $50 an acre.
Mr.. Munson and Mr.. Fisher were
both very we'll pleased with the re-
suit of the sale. 1t was the last of
the spring sales, except a small
amount of land in Shoshone county
The conditions of the sales are
one-tenth down, deferred payments
at 6 per cent and 18 years time.
The funds derived become perma-
nent endowment for school pur-
poses.
A feature of the sale was the
disposal by the state of tract oi
over II acres described as Block
F, Town of Rathdrum, which has
been the home for many years, o.
w. A. Logue who sought to hold
it as mining claim. Mr.. Logue
sought to dissuade anyone from
bidding on this land by warning
them that he would make trouble
for them in the courts. His efforts
however, were unavailing. as the
land was bid in by c. L. Heitman
the price being about $1,000. There
were several other bidders for tn,
property. 1t is reported Mr.. Logu'
will be allowed two months il
which to vacate.

Japan unquestionably looks upon

won. Under the circumstances they
are bound to take the first excuse for
declaring war against US. believe
in a patton preparing for war just as
l believe in an individual preparing
himself for successful career by de-
veloping a strong, healthy body. Be-
cause l believe man should be
strong does not necessarily indicate
that would recommend him to waste
this strength in quarreling and fight

to prepare for war; this is more
especially so with our navy than it is
