made by Occur d'Alene and 50 warm
~ was il waged that the citizens
OF Rathdrum guarded the records,
In fear OF a forcible removal Of
them for a period OF three months.
The towns in the northern portion OF
the county finally sided with Rath-
drum in the controversy. and the
light was abandoned by Occur d'Alene
looking to a removal OF the county
seat through the board of county
commissioners. and then commenced
a long and determined fight in the
legislature for division OF the coun-
ty with the ultimate end In view Of
establishing the county seat at Occur
dAene. either by a legislative act
or by an election after an act had
been passed dividing the county.
Fight in the Legislature.
The first bill, having for Its object
the division Of the county was intro
duced in the senate by Senator Fred
L. Burgan, and at the same
time the bill was introduced
In the house by A. a. Crane
at the session OF 1898. The bill
provided for the carving out Of a
new county of the northern portion
OF kootenai, and leaving the> re-
mainder as II then existed. A bin
looking to division of the county
along similar lines was intro
duced in the legislature Of 1895. and
passed the house. but when It reach
ed the senate it met a fate similar
to that of 1898.
The next two sessions went by
without any measure being intro
duced for a division OF the county.
but the battle YVES renewed again in
the legislative session OF 1899. Dur
ing this session two bills were intro
duced. The first provided for the
adjustment of Kootenai county, and
the Establishment in its place Of
Occur d'Alene and Roosevelt coun-
ties. Standpoint was named as the
couny seat Of the latter and Occur
d'Alene city for the former. The
other also provided for the creation
of Roosevelt county and the estab-
lishment of Standpoint as ats county
seat but left the Iorthern portion
of the county under the name OF
Kootenai, and Rathdrum as its coun-
ty seat. Neither bill however,
passed, aud the fight was resumed in
the session Of 1906. The bill In

Bonner and Kootenai. Occur a.
Alene was named as the county seat
for Clark county. and Standpoint for
Lewis. The bill passed and became
Law and the county auditor moved
portion Of the county records TO
this city and the people Of the city
were satisfied that at last they had
won the victory for which they had
fought for so many years. but we're
again destined to meet defeat. Pro-
ceedings were Instituted to test the
constitutIonality OF the act before the
supreme court, and that tribunal de-
clared It unconstitutional on the
ground that the legislature did not
have power to abolish an old eoun-
~ that was I'm existence at the time
of the adoption OF the constitution.
Judge o. G. stockslager failed 20
take the view OF the matter that his
associates did and rendered a dis
senting opinion.
Battle Renewed.
The battle was again. and succeas-
fully this time. renewed In the SEES
sion Of 1907. A bill was intro
duced by Representative Taylor for
division Of the county the northern
portion to be known as Bonner, and
its county seat to be Standpoint and
the southern portion OF the county
was to be left the came, with Rath-
drum rs the county seat. This bin
passed and became q law. In the
senate the bill was passed by the
efforts OF Senator McClear.
The people OF Occur d'Alene, now
that they had secured a measure
through the legislature dividing the
county set about to remove the coun-
ty seat from Rathdrum to this city
by an election. The campaign to
this end assumed an active shape
early last spring. and all through the
summer and up to election day the
contest was vigorously prosecuted
by both sides ending in a sweeping
victory for this city.
The last act to make this the
county seat will be CanvassIng the re-
turns OF the election and declaring
the result.
