Thieves, Supposed to Be Boys, Enter Congress Street Feed Store.

Sneak thieves entered the feed store of S1osberg & Handleman on Congress street last night, but, they were unsuc- cessful in getting anything af value. The safe door was left open but noth- ing was in the safe and although the thieves smashed open the iron box and tore out the woodwork they had nothing but their trouble for their pains. Detective Hackett said this morning he thought the job was the work of boys who had sneaked into the store before it was closed yester- day afternoon and hid in the hay.

 For Alderman in Ninth

The Democracy of the Ninth district will ask David R. Norman, 667 Noble avenue, to accept the Democratic nom- ination for Alderman.

Northern Pacific To Build to
Elk via Sites.
WHAT WILL GRANGEV|LLE DO?
Time to Awaken or We VIII
Lose a Plum.

IIltDcI WIG VII cSht VI Oh O'SSoa'|
line building in from Lewiston or
danger from an o. r. & N. source
is the cause OF Grangeville having
a railroad today. Railroads do not
build just for the convenience OF
the people, neither do they parallel
their own lines for the novelty OF
possessing the most expensive strip
of road in the world.
When it is decided to build
road in the Elk City district it
might be a fair gamble to conclude
the Northern Pacific will not build
from q point where a joint road
will handle the freight for a dis
lance of seventy miles but rather
dirt would be flying from the town
where the connection will give them
an opportunity to handle the i'm
mense tonnage over their own line.
Here is a piece of news, not as
speculative as is the average rail-
way building item which appears in
over ambitious papers from time 10
time. If one will refer to the hotel
register of local hotel on date
several weeks ago, You will find
written thereon the name Of the
general freight agent of the North,
ern Pacific. You will also find the
name of a party who usually knows
the plans Of 4 certain road In re-
CARDS this section. Along about
this time 3 certain man who is in
terested in the Elk District pretty
heavily, left for st. Paul. Also IA
western departments manager of the
Northern Pacific left the same time
for st. Paul. There WAS confer
ence in that city in which railroad
men and others interested confer
red. Previous to this conference the
railroad company had men in Elk
District and familiarized them
selves with that section.
From other facts at hand one is
led to believe the Northern Pacific
is contemplating the building Of a
road from Stitee to Elk City, via
Harpster. In fact we would not
be surprised to see a surveying
crew in that section within the
next thirty days and the people OF
this city can expect grading to be-
gin in another thirty days.
There is every indication to veri-
fy the likelihood of the consbruc-
tim of the road from that point.
This will be of great benefit to
Sites and the people of that town
are and should work for it, just as
the citizens of this city should
make an effort to have the line
built in from here. Stop and
realize what it would mean to
GraDgeville if the Elk District is
tapped by line other than one
from Grangeyille. 1t is now time
to act, not after it is too late. An
electric line built from here and
commenced at once might effect a
change.
The o. r. & N. company might
be appealed to and awakened for il
il certainty that company would
not allow the Northern Pacific to
cut it out of its share of the
mountain tonnage. Railroads play
smooth games and do not tell what
they intend doing but sometimes
they can be reached through the
proper moves of community. We
believe this matter should be taken
up by those interested in Grange
vile. Several weeks in she future
we may be able to furnish more in.
