CATHOLICS WILL BUILD
To Start Erection of New Church
Next Week
Church Will Cost About $1,000

A contract was entered into today 10y
the building committee OF the Catholic
church with Lehmkuhl & Lutz for the
erection of church building on the
block donated to them this summer by
Mr.. Black we'll and his associates of the
Panhandle Lumber Co.
The church building is planned to
cost about $4,000 1t will be of frame
construction with concrete foundation.
The main audience room is to be 32x4S
with IA foot posts and a seating capac-
ity of 300 The vestibule is to be Sxl2
and the sacrsty l6x20.
Work is to be started next week and
it is hoped to have the building ready
for dedication by Feb. lst.
Up to this time no solicitation for
FUNDS has been made outside the MEM
bers of the congregation. About 81 600
has been raised by donations from the
members and suppers given BY the
ladies OF the church. Through the as
sistance OF Gonzaga college OF Spokane,
loan of 81 900 has been negotiated. Ow-
ing to general financial conditions no at
tempt has been made to solicit funds
outside the membership Of the church
and the building would not have been
started at this time had the congrega-
ton not wished to avail itself of the IA
vorable building conditions as to wages
and price of materials. Before the
building is completed and furnished it
may be necessary for them to call on
the citizens for aid but it will not be
done unless absolutely necessary.
The building OF the church is a good
move and one that will help to make
Newport attractive as place Of resi-
dence for people of that faith.

The river is at little better stage of
water than usual at this time of the
year, and has been raising slightly the
past few days.
Capt. Lanneau reports that the Ruth

Railroad Rum0rs

There has been great deal of rail
road talk of late, and rumors published
in the Spokane papers about the Idaho
& Washington Northern Railroad and
its connection with the Chicago, Mil
Waukee & ST. Paul. 1t has been re-
ported that the |. 4 W. n. would build
it's own tracks into Spokane, also that
the Milwaukee would use this track into
Spokane, building up the east side OF
Coeur d'Alene lake, from their main
line to a connection with the Blackwell
road. Another report is to the effect
that the Blackwell road will purchase
the Lewis logging road, On the west side
OF Occur d Alene lake, and extend it to
connection with the Milwaukee at
Plummer.
Mr.. Black we'll denies the correctness
of these rumOrs. and it seems quite eyl-
dent that whatever plans he and his
associates may have for railroad build
ing in this section are not sufficiently
matured to make public at this time.
frequently rumors are heard of the con-
troll of the Blackwell line lying with
some of the great transcontinental roads,
but to the close observer 1t is evident
that these are nnfounded, and that the
new road will retain its independence
and its unequaled position as belt line
connecting with all the great roads of
the northwest.
Ducks are reported plentiful down the
river, also geese. The weather has been
very favorable for hunting and large
party Of members Of the Caiiapell Lake
Gun Club, from Spokane went down
to that resort Wednesday morning.
w. l.. Townsend, OF Sheridan, Wyo.
has been in town this week and has
purchased tie Kellogg qnarter about
five miles east of town. He will make
his future home on it and expects to
make considerable improvements on
the place.

and diking propositions were present,
and the proposal of Mr.. Reynolds was
received with great favor. Another
meeting of those interested will be held
next Saturday, at which arrangements
will be made for the right OF way for the
railroad along the river bank.
IN thus cooperating with the people
Of the Calispel valley in the handling Of
the dixie proposition the Blackwell peo
pie are again taking steps for the higher
development and progress of the coun-
try their road will traverse.

RAILROAD AS A dixie
Calispel People Considering a
New Proposition.
Grade Will Save Them Expense

4 meeting Of residents of the Calispel
valley was held at Cusick Wednesday
afternoon, at which }. G. II. Reynolds,
right of way agent for the Idaho &
Washington Northern Railroad, and c.
F. Craig, president Of the First National
Bank of Newport, were present. Mr..
Reynolds placed before those present a
new phase of the diking proposition now
being considered. which, if accepted
and carried out, will be considerable of
an aid in the effort of the valley people
to protect their property from damage
by high water.
Several surveys for the down river
extension of the /. & w. n have been
run through the valley and route along
the foothills had been finally adopted.
At the request OF residents of the valley
and property owners, committees hay
ing been sent to spirit Lake to confer
with the railroad company, it was finally
concluded to run u survey along the
bank of the Pend Oreille, the valley
people believing that the railroad grade
would be great help in the solution OF
the diking proposition. The matter Of
protecting the valley lands from over
flow is largely question Of controlling
the back water in the Calispel river and
other small streams flowing into the
Pend Oreille and if the railroad grade
is built near the river bank, dams or
oiher contrivancea for controlling the
water in these streams could be built
up against abutments on the railaoad
bridges, and he the means of saving a
considerable expense to the property
owners involved. In addition the grade
would be an added protection as dixie
at the lowest places along the bank.
So much of the railroad grade as lies
between Calispel, Trimhle and Tacoma
creeks will serve to dixie IS to 80 per
cent OF the distance between Usk and
Tacoma creek. With the grade along
the river bank, the people of the valley
will have to contend with only the prop
osition OF controlling the waters OF these
streams, which, ii successfully done.
will reclaim abont 20,000 acres Of the
best agricultural land in the northwest.
Practically all the people in the valley
whose lands are affected by the railroad

Why the Irish Love Erin.

The Westminster Review, a higk
/, ciass London publication. explains as
follows. why the Irish love their ma
tive land with intense devotion:
AS Justin Mccarthy in his History
OF our own Times" says: mo one will
be able to understand the whole mean
ing and bearing of the long land strug-
gle in Ireland who does not get 1t
clearly in his mind the fact that. right
ly or wrongly. the irish peasant re-
garded the right to have bit Of land,
his share, exactly as other peoples re-
gard the right to live" But 1t goes
further and deeper than this. 1t gncs
back, in fact, to a time long antece-
dent to the introduction Of Christian
tty. to a time when a primitive or nat
nral people. they were Nature or An
cestor worshippers. It has survived
through centuries Of defeat and dis"
aster. 1t f1ourishes like a green hay
tree. 1t is as vernal as ever. This at
tachment Of the modern Irish to their
land is nothing but relic of pri III
tive land veneration. 1t is vanera-
tion that is to be seen all over West
Africa and in many other parts of At
rica in the alteration that is paid to
the earth as to a goddess. and In TIE
principle of non-alienation Of land
that exists among these natives. A be-
lief that is SO strong. SO inherent, ard
so ineradicable in them, that they
cannot comprehend how it can in any
way or through any process pass away
from them. They firmly believe, in
fact. that the land is rot theirs to part
. with, but belongs to their fathers
!. e., to their departed spirits-ani
that they hold it in trust for them. In
one word the whole matter is purely
and entirely family or communal
concern.
