WILL ORGANIZE A NEW BAND.

We understand that w. F.
Peterson, the local plumber, has
taken up the work of organizing
a new band for Cottonwood and
a meeting for that purpose will
be held in the very near future.
The band music is now being
collected around town and it is
the intention to use some of the
instruments of both old bands
and make the new organization
as strong as possible to start with.
There will be no trouble in secur-
ing from twelve to fifteen
members to start the new band
and this number can perhaps be
swelled to twenty in a few
weeks.
There is plenty of good mater
ial here for a band and if the
members and citizens work to-
gether and do not get to pulling
in opposite directions the band
should prove a big success. Mr..
Peterson, who will act as in
structor, is a musician of several
years experience and will prove
an efficient leader. There is no
reason why Cottonwood should
not have one of the best bands
in the county and we hope the
new organization will hold to-
gether for several years and
make a reputation for itself and
our city.

IDAHO WINS SOME VALUABLE LAND,

The Boise Statesman says:
The attorney generals Office is
just in receipt of a series of five
decisions from the secretary of
the interior, finally deciding in
favor of the state the contests
involving about $1,000 acres of
land in north Idaho. These lands
were claimed adversely to the
state by the Northern Pacific
railrood company and by certain
entrymen who were endeavoring
to obtain title to the land on ac-
count of the value of the timber.
The tract involved some of the
best timber land in the state,
which is estimated to be worth
between 100000 and $400, 600.
Quarter sections of timber land
in this vicinity have sold within
the last year at from SIS, 900 to
$17,0
This land is located on Marble
creek in the St. Joe country and
has been the scene of several
murders. Fred Tyler and several
other squatters, who located on
claims there, were killed by
claim jumpers there and the
notorious Steve Adams was later
tried at Rathdrum for the muir
der of Tyler, but the jury
disagreed. Jack Simpkins, of
Steunenberg murder fame, also
had a claim in that section which
was cancelled along with many
others.

BRIDGE BE FINISHED IN JUNE.

A. ]. Payne returned Saturday
from a business trip to Lewiston
and states that fine progress is
being made in the work of in
stalling the steel bridge across
Lawyers canyon south of ,Voll-
mer. The greatest part of the
steel entering into the construc-
ton of the bridge has already
been delivered at the bridge site
and the balance is being deliver
ed as rapidly as possible. Mr..
Payne secured permission to ride
upon the train from Culdesac to
Vollmer and says the trip is one
of great interest. The track
from Culdesac to the top of the
mountain winds around for
several miles over canyons,
through cuts and tunnels, and in
places the track can be seen at
three different places on the
same mountain slope, one below
the other. The route for a few
miles is very scenic and is one of
the most difficult feats of engi-
neering on the Northern Pacific
system.
The road up the canyon is in
good shape and unless some bad
slides occur in the spring no diff
Guilty will be experienced in rush
ing the work of getting the big
bridge into place at Lawyers
canyon. The track from the top
of the mountain above Culdesac
to Vollmer is yet to be ballasted
but this work will soon be finish
ed when dry weather comes.
The railroad company has al
ready established a freight
service to Vollmer and it is an.
nounced that a passenger service
will be established not later than
March 1st.
The remaining bridge steel
will be delivered at the canyon
within the next ten days anc
from the progress being made il
is quite probable that trains will
be able to cross the canyon by
the middle or latter part of June
at the latest.

BRITISH COLUMBIA's FOREST RESERVE

At one stroke of the lieutenant
governors pen $50, 900, 600 acres
of forest land in British Columbia
have been placed in reserves.
This includes every acre of the
PROVINCES timber lands except
what has been leased. This is
as much land as was put in the
national forests of this country
between the years 1891 and 1907.
The action was taken to check
wasteful exploitation of timber
resources and to bring the care
and cutting of the timber more
effectually under government
control. The province has been
leasing timber land instead of
selling it. The most of the leas-
ing has been done the past three
or four years, and Americans
hold the largest part of the TO-
600 leases now in force. The
lease is, in it's effect, a long term
option at lew rate. It runs 81
years and may be renewed at
the end of the first term. The
lessee pays 25 cents a year until
he is ready to cut the timber,
when he pays royalty of so
cents per 1000 feet, board meas
ure, for the timber removed.
The income of the province from
leases was about $1,275, 900 last
year.

IDAHO'S RICH MINES.

We are in receipt this week of
a copy of the 9th annual report
of the mining industry in Idaho
as issued by Robert N. Bell, state
inspector of mines. The book
contains over 200 pages of inter-
esting facts regarding the rich
mines of this state and shows
numerous photographs of the
different mines, mills, mining
camps and prosperous cities
which have sprung up in the
various rich mining districts of
the state.
The report is too voluminous
to treat at length but we CLEAN
from it the following: For the
year 1907 this state produced a
total value of $22, 165, 1914 of
ore as against $24, 1873, 317.O3 for
1906. During 1907 lead to the
value of SIP, 2,470, ,341.74 was
mined; silver, SIS, ,546, ,553. 80;
copper, $2,21,177.17; gold, ST.
373, ,031. 40; zinc, 1884, ,087.21.
Of the various counties of the
state Shoshone takes the lead
with a total value of $40, ,O84, 49,
%, or nearly four-ffths of all the
ore mined in the state. Custer
county comes next with a value
of $949, ,429.99. Oneida county

On account of an epidemic of
smallpox the Rathdrum schools
were closed last week. There
are about twenty cases in the
town and it is thought some of
them may prove falal.
Preparations are under way to
provide the town of Juliaetta
with a water system. A reser-
voir will be erected on the hill
above town and 6-inch mains will
be laid on the principal streets.
One of the heaviest steel
trusses for the Lawyers canyon
railroad bridge was brought up
to the bridge site late last week
from Culdesac. The truss
weighed many tons and three fiat
cars were required to transport
it.
The city council at Colfax is
considering the proposition of
macadamizing the principal
streets of the town and is fgur-
ing on shipping in the tailings
from Coeur. d. 'Alene mines, which
can be packed into a solid pave
ment very similar to cement.
AS a result of the opening of
the new line of railroad to the
prairie Lewiston people are now
able to get dry 16-inch wood de-
livered to their doors for $3.50
per cord. The wood is shipped
from the Reubens section where
several thousand cords are
stored.
Twin Falls, two years after
water was put on the tract on
which the town was built, con-
structed and opened a $50, 900
school building. Now, three
years later, it has voted bonds to
build its second school building
modelled after the Longfellow
school at Boise, at a cost of $780,
600.
DR.. Joseph LePard, formerly
of Westlake, has been arrested in
Latah county on a charge of
selling liquor without a license.
LePard runs a drug store near
the town of Potlatch and is said
to have been supplying liquor to
the residents of that town. He
was arrested on a similar charge
last summer and fined $50.
Some of the early settlers tell
US that twenty three years ago
this spring farm work was very
generally taken up through the
Genesee valley on February Is
and that the weather continued
mild during the entire spring.
They also state that crops were
not over abundant that year and
that in the Tammany section near
Lewiston there was an almost
total failure on account of drouth.

NO LIQUOR ON
RESERVATION
u, s. Supreme Court Hands Down
Adverse Decision in Dick Case
Saloons Must Go and License
Money be Forfeited.
A dispatch from Washington,

A dispatch from Washington,
D. G. dated Feb. "a, says: I'm
deciding the case of the United
States VS.. George Dick, the
supreme court of the United
States today held that the laws
of the United States and not the
state laws Of Idaho, concerning
the introduction of intoxicating
liquors on an Indian reservation,
control on the old Nez Perce res
ervation in Idaho.
Dick was convicted of taking
a pint of whiskey into the terri
tory embraced in the reservation
and sought to have the case dis
missed on the authority of the
supreme court decision in the
Hoch case, holding that as In
dians on allotted lands are
citizens, their rights cannot be
circumscribed."
This decision will be of con-
siderable Importance to Nez Perce
and Idaho counties and will
result in closing all the saloons
on the reservation and bring
forth the festive 'boot-leggers"
again. At present there are
saloons operating at Sites,
Kooskia, Orofno, Greer, Peck,
Spalding, Culdesac, Reubens.
Kippen, Mohler, Nezperce, Voll-
mer, Ferdinand and Steunenberg
and these saloons are paying
several thousand dollars into
the treasures of the two counties
each year. After the Dick case
was decided in favor of the state
saloons were opened at all of the
principal towns on the reserva-
ton but the decision of the U.
S. supreme court will probably
soon result in their being closed.
That the "boot-legging" element
will again commence operations
there is no doubt as it is an i'm
possibility to keep liquor off the
reservation.
LATER. Further reports from
Lewiston regarding saloons on
the Nez Perce reservation state
that practically all of the license
money recently paid in by the
saloon men for the present year
will be forfeited, there being only
two cases where the license
money can be refunded. In these
cases the bonds of the appli.
cants had been approved but
no license yet issued. The
license money received each year
from saloons on the reservation
amounted to about $4,000 anC
fully $4,000 of this went into the
school funds of various districts,
Regarding the matter of re-
turning the license money to the
saloon men who must close their
doors, County Attorney Need
ham, of Lewiston, said that, un'
der the decision of the supreme
court, the saloons were doing an
illeged business on the reserva'
ton and the county commits
sioners would have no right t(
refund the license money, and,
further, that the state legislature
could not properly make it basis
for legislation.
In addition to losing theil
license money, it is stated thai
the government officials may SEE
fit to bring action against the
various saloon men for operating
on the reservation in violation o.
the United States laws. If thi'
is done a big legal battle will
follow as the state will be tangled
up in the case perhaps fully a
much as the saloon men.
