Republican national conven-
ton, Chicago, June 16.
Republican state nominating
convention, Boise, Sept. l.

OVER at Ceur d'Alene they arc
SO hard up for arguments to in.
velgle the voters into moving
the county seat, that they claim
the only way to get enough
vault room and "save the
records is to move the county
seat. 1t was amusing and yet
pathetic to note the desperate
eagerness with which they grab
bed at the few crumbs thrown to
them by Judge Woods. 1t was
like the proverbial drowning
man grabbing at a straw-only
worse, since the straw contained
in the judges remark is but a
delusion so far as county seat
removal is concerned. In fam
ing headlines the Press and
journal played up the alleged
statement OF Judge Woods (the
one which the Judge afterwards
denied having made) on their
front pages and then discoursed
upon it editorially in a learned
manner, calling it an argument
ior county seat removal, and
Trying to make out from it that
al the priceless records OF every
description, belonging to Koote-
nal county, are in momentary
danger OF destruction by fire!
C9ur d'Alene may be able to
mlslead some ignorant people
INTO believing such falsehoods,
out no intelligent person can
consider them worthy of a |
moments consideration.
The Rathdrum tribune. (Rathdrum, Idaho) 1903-1963, 1908-06-12

WHEN Judge Woods said there
is not sufficient vault room at
the county court house for the
storing OF records, it was a hint
to the county commissioners to
get busy and investigate the
matter. If, in their Judgment,
more vault room is needed it is
their duty to see that vault
room is provided. Should any
records be lost because they are
not kept in vaults, the county
commissioners could be held &C.
countable. No one else has au-
thority to build vaults for
county use.
