REPUBS ARE SPLIT
TO REGULAR ORGAN.
 IEATIoN DEVELOPS.
Negroes are Chsrsing That They Have Been Excluded From the Rs- publican Meetings-Msny
 Committee Meetings.

Decatur, April 5.--(Speciai. )--As . result of recent Republican committee meetings held in this Congressional district and in some of the counties of the district, there will be split in the Republican ranks of this district.
 The opposition to the regular organ izatton have called district conven- tion to be held at the county court house fin Decatur on May s. The reg ulars hold their district convention in the K. of P. hall. Decatur. on April 22. The opposition have also called mass meetings to be held In the vari- ous counties on April IS.
 Yesterday the regulars held meet ings in Hartselle. Morgan County. and in Athens. Limestone County.
 It is said that there will be two delegations to the National Convention from this district and those who are opposed to the organization say they will win and base their claims on the grounds that there Is no legal organ ization of the party in the district and in a number of the counties.
 The whole thing seems to hinge on the fact that the "ins' wish to continue to eat at the political pie counter and the "outs'' desire that they too, re- ceive some of the pie, It Is believed that the next few weeks will witness some events or interest Tn the Hepuo- lican circles of this section of the State. Tn the meantime. the Democrats are taking things easy and laughing up their sleeves and waiting for the grand ball to open.
 The negroes in this section of the State are charging that they have been excluded from the Republican meet ings and just what action they will take remains to be seen. Two negroes attended the meeting at Hartseile yes terday. but occupied back seats. few weeks ago when the district Com mittee met in Decatur. the meeting was held In a hotel parlor where ne- groes were not admitted. The district mass meeting called to meet here on April 22 will be held in the K. of P. hall and 1t is said that no negroes will he admitted te this hall ou this ocea- sion.

500 LINE TO BONNERS FERRY

thence to Kalispell, thence gia the
Libby cutoff" to Libby, thence
down the Kootenai to Boomers
Ferry, thence using the Spokane
international to Spokane, thence
on to the coast over a new line, or
via Joint Use of some line now built.
The proposition seem altogether
probable, in view of the operations
Of the Canadian Pacific and the
500 lines, which roads are emitting
into Hill territory from ST. Paul to
the coast. A junction with the
Spokane International at Boomers
Ferry would be a natural conse-
quence.

Letter from Telephone Co.

The following letter has been re-
ceived by a Bonners Ferry business
man. and is self explanatory:
Dear Sir:-This is to acknow-
legde your letter of January 3rd,
in which you make inquiries as to
when our company will begin con-
struction on the new telephone
system to be installed in your
town. wish to advise that after
our representative returned from a
canvass of your town, a map was
made up showing the necessary
construction required to reach all
the prospectwe subscribers and this
map was submitted to our en-
cheering department at headquar-
tiers. They, however, returned it
to me, suggesting number of al
terations in our plans which | con-
ceded in order to not delay the
construction.
/ am advised by our general Of
flee that the matter will be placed
before the Board OF Directors very
shortly to authorize the necessary
expenditures. The plant as plan
ned by myself would cost fully
100000 to install and although /
am satisfied that the matter will
go through alright, wish to say we
have recently had a change OF
Presidents in our company, Mr.
Lane from Nebraska, having been
appointed executive, January first
and some of the delay is probably
due to the fact that it will require
a little time for him to get in touch
with the many new propositions
awaiting his consideration.
Trusting that you will satisfac
torily explain this unexpected de
lay to the people of Boomers Ferry

. Death of Louis E. White

Louis E. White passed to the
great beyond last Monday night at
about 10 o'clock. He had been i'll
with typhoid fever for about six
weeks and it was the dread disease
that caused his death.
Louis Edward White was in his
9th year, and leaves a young wife
to mourn his loss. They had been
married less than two years. Be-
sides his wife, his mother, Mrs.
John O'Hogge, was present in his
last hours, as was also a brother,
John White. Mrs. c. E. Seward, a
sister, arrived from Spokane in
time to attend the funeral, but the
other brother, Fred White, could
not be reached in time.
The funeral took place on We'd
nesday, the remains being convey
ed from the Medbury residence to
the M. E. church, where the funer-
al services were held. Rey. ]. r.
Henderson preached the sermon.
There was a large attendance and
long procession followed the re.
mains to the grave. To the grie.
stricken young wife and other rela
tives the deepest sympathy is fell
for their great loss and the untime
ly end of the deceased.

IDAHO LEADS ALL
Lumber Industry Growing Faster than
in any other State.

The lumber manufacturing in
dustry is increasing faster in Idaho
than in any other state in the I'm
ion, according to Census Bulletin
No. 1872, recently issued by the
Forest Service. From 1899 to 1906
the increase in the output of the
mills of Idaho was Sal 3 per cent,
while the increase of its nearest
com petitor, W ashington, was POI D
per cent.
The lumber manufacturing in
dustry of Idaho is yet in its very
infancy, and Idaho is led by many
states in output, but the next five
years will see Idaho forging well
to the front, considering her ratio
of increase and her vast forests OF
standing timber.
The statistics show that Idaho
had 1913 mills in 1906, and that
the output was AIS, 349,0OO feet
valued at $14.24 per NJ, or the
total of $5,966,157. 1t is well
known that there was a heavy in
crease in 1907, and we have nc
doubt but that if the statistics O.
that year were at hand, it would
show surprising increase.

item that relates an exciting incl
dent that occurred 20 years ago in
which our well-known townsman,
William Hart was principal actor.
The Forum describes a run the fire
company of which Mr.. Hart was
chief, made as follows:
A fire at Napoleon destroyed
nearly the entire south side of the
town and the alarm was phoned to
Fargo by Mrs. DR.. Mitchell, and
Martin Hector as acting mayor
ordered the hook and ladder truck
sent out at once on freight car IN
charge of Chief Hart. lConsidera-
BILE hose was also taken slong to be
used on the donkey" pump con
nected with the s&itch engine
The run from Fargo to Mapletor
was made in twenty-eight minutes

northwest breeze was blowing

centres are moving westward.
First New England led, then the
Great Lake regions, and later the
south. Now the Pacific coast leads.
The Pacific coast states, including
Idaho, Washington, Oregon and
California contain the greatest sup
ply of virgin timber.
The total output for the country
in 1906 was 37,550,736,000 feet,
valued at 1880 per M.
Only during the past dozen
years have the people of Idaho
given much attention to the timber
wealth of the state. Previous to
that time, our forests were little
considered. Such is the swift
change in the course of events thai
