cred all of his load with the execution

United States from 1885 to 1889 anC
from 1898 to 1897, died at his home a
Westland, near Princeton, \. j., at s ~
O'Clock Wednesday morning.
While Mr.. Cleveland has been III poor
health for some time he has been mucl
improved of late, and his family ant
friends hoped that he was regaining his
health. Death was due to heart failure
complicated with other diseases and the
excessive heat.
Mrs. Cleveland was present at the
deathbed of her distinguished husband
but the children were absent, being al
the New Hampshire home of Mrs
Cleveland's mother.
On Tuesday night the former presi
dent had serious relapse. Early Wed
nesday morning the physicians in charge
stated that there was nothing to be
alarmed about concerning Mr.. tCleve
lands condition. Shortly after he was
attacked by sinking spell and sud.
denly expired.
While the funeral arrangements have
not been concluded, it is announced tina,
the funeral services will be held from
his late residence on Friday.
Mrs. Cleveland sent messages announc.
ing the death of her husband to Presi.
dent Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft. The
president has issued proclamation
eulogizing his predecessor and ordering
the flag to be hung at half mast on the
White House and department buildings
for 80 days. The president will attend
the funeral
Grover Cleveland was II years OF age
having been born on March IS, 1887
He and Mrs. Cleveland celebrated the
twenty-second anniversary of their wed
ding on June last
With the death of Mr.. Cleveland the
country is again without an ex-presi-
dent. He was also the only Democrat
elected to the office since the opening OF
the civil war.
Since leaying the White House Mr..
Cleveland has lived in retirement at his
New Jersey home, until called upon by
the public to act as one of the trustees
of the great Equitable Life Assurance
Society, after the sensational insurance
disclosures of couple of years ago.
Since that time he has spent much
tim in New York attending to the af-
fairs of the society.

gers are transferred around Box Canyon

Nancy, thus making a one-day trip
both to and from Metaline The new
schedule will prove popular and gives
the lower river country the best service
that can be devised.
On Sundays the lone will take excur-
sion parties down the river running in
connection with a special train from
Spokane. leaving Newport about 1880
a. m. The first excursion of the season
occurred last Sunday and was well pat
ronized considering the unfavorable
weather, the special bringing about
sixty from Spokane The excursionists
were well pleased with the trip and
when it becomes better known the Pend
Oreille trip will doubtless prove one OF
the most popular trips in the North
west and this section will receive much
desirable advertising
On July Fourth the lone will take an
excursion to lone and the Newport will
run an excursion from the lower river

The river is falling at the rate of about

All of the piers and piling belonging tc
the Northern Mercantile Co. were taken
out by logs during the highest stage OF

PREPARING TO Dixie
Residents of Calispel Awaken to
Needs of Protection
Observation-Disclosures of Attorney

Residents of the Calspel valley, prac-
tically all of which is this year mum
dated by the back water of the Pend
Oreille river, are taking steps to organ
ize diking districts under the state laws
for the purpose of protecting their lands
against a recurrence of similar condi-
tons
Last year a considerable portion OF
the crops in the valley was lost through
high water, and this year practically
the whole crop is gone. entailing a loss
of from $4,000 to $4,000 The water
of this year was higher than at any time
since 1894, but had it not been for the
abnormal conditions brought about by
the Montana floods, it is doubtful if
much damage would have occurred
However, the people realize the neces-
sity of guarding against these conditions
if they would bring their lands to the
value and productiveness that the fer
tile soil of the valley makes possible.
a meeting was held last week, at
which plans for diking the valley were
discussed, and ID. r. Atherton, OF
Cusick, was appointed to visit Spokane
and secure legal advice as to the method
OF procedure for the forming of diking
district under the laws of the state. Mr.
Anterior was in Spokane Saturday and
secured the services of Attorney JOS B.
Lindsey, who will begin the necessary
| legal measures.
In this weeks issue of The MINER
there appears lengthy article written
by resident OF the valley, discussing
the proposed plans and offering some
suggestions. The MINER is pleased to
chronicle the beginning of movement
looking toward the protection of the fer
tile lands Of the valley, and will give
space to similar discussions of the pro-
posed diking schemes. That some such
measures are absolutely necessary will
be generally conceded, and it is we'll to
thoroughly discuss the matter, to the
end that no mistake be made in adopt
ing plan tor the improvement
