THE COURT HOUSE

In another column we publish a
picture of Kootenai county's court
house from a photograph taken last
week, which makes 1t up to date
we want to be up to date. The Press
has been telling the people what kind
OF an old shack they have for
court house and some of the later
arrivals who have never seen the old
fire trap, thought we were just a
little prejudiced and drew the word
picture pretty strong. We now pre-
sent to our readers the real thing.
Look upon the picture, and as you
look, contemplate the result should
the building once take fire. Your
loss In records would run into hun
dreds of thousands OF dollars and
much of 1t could never be replaced.
This Is the building called the
Kootenai county court house; the
building which the Rathdrum peo-
pie ask you to continue to use In
transactlng public business and take
chances on your public records be-
ing destroyed by fire. Did Judge
Woods oyerdraw the picture when he
said that "the county records we're
stored in woodstock"
When the Rathdrum Tribune re-
Gently issued its special illustrated
edition containing pictures OF public
buildings and private places, the Koo-
tenai county court house was con.
spicuous by It's absence. The picture
Of the Jail was there; the county
hospital showed up in good shape;
the Fraternal hall and the school
buildings we're reproduced. but the
court house, where was It? Our
contemporary at Rathdrum was ac-
tually ashamed to print picture of
the building which 1t claimed In It's
reading columns lis good enough for
kootenai county and ought to be
retained" The truth Is that every
citizen OF Rathdrum knows that the
thing will fall down, If II does not
burn, within the next six years, and
II they can keep the county seat
from being removed this fall, before
another vote can be taken In six
years new building must be erected
and II would be built at Rathdrum.
That is the game, and we do not
criticise Rathdrum for making the
best of It.

In addition to Its daily telegraph
service the Press is recognized as
the leading paper for local and state
news, II is not filled with insipid
items of no general interest and does
not partake of the "Bingville Bugle''
style. II realizes the fact that Occur
d'Alene has passed the stage of a
country town with fits country Jour
nalism and provincialism. giving
such startling news as the statement
that "Eph Johnson caught fish that
weighed " pounds which Is among
the largest pulled from the water: +"
Aug. 10 the hunters enjoying to
hunt grouse will be privileged to
hunt them;" or that "zeke Skinner
and Josiah Peckem expect to fish on
the meadows this evening, II is re-
ported that they will make hay when
the sun shines and the fishing for
perch Is good now" There are
others that might be quoted from
our exchange. but the Press has
neither the time nor the space to de-
vote to them at present. II likes
fresh personal, local and general
news and appreciates the same.

magazines of the country are lean
