TRIBUTE PAID TO
senate MONEY

In the selection of fernando De.
Soto Money as leader of the Demo-
cratic forces in the Senate, the minor
ity party has paid a well-deserved
tribute to man of the highest char
acter, the most excellent abilities and
the truest Democracy. Senator Mon
ey earned his spurs by his peculiarly
independent and effective work dur
ing the tariff session. 1t was a time
when note of pure, old-fashioned
Democracy on the tariff question was
certain to be heard and appreciated in
the midst of the strange discord of
the Democratic chorus. Senator
Money stood out against the tendency
of Democrats to trade off their con-
victions and their party traditions for
sops to local interests. 1t may fairly
be said that if he had been leader dur
ing the tariff session, and if his fol-
lowing had been willing to accept the
program he would have laid down, the
new tariff measure would have been
better one, and the Democrats would
have come out of the performance
with a good deal more political cap
ital to their credit.
Senator Money is 70 years old, ma
tive of Mississippi and a Confederate
veteran. He has been in Congress
most of the time since the Civil War,
and earned high place in the lower
house before he was promoted to the
Senate. His one great handicap has
been i'll health. Defective eyesight
compelled him to retire from the army
before the end of the war, and he has
suffered ever since, a legacy of his
army service. But there has never
been intimation of anything awry
with the political health of the sturdy
Mississippian; he has been strictly
his own man, voicing his own views
with vigor and independence that
naturally brought him the recogni-
tiOn of selection tn tho fHads,chin of

River Notes

The water in the river is rising stead
lily and now covers the docks Of the Pend
Oreille River Navigation Co. The stage
of water is much lower at this season OF
the year than usual.
Capt Fred Cusick has been at the
wheel OF the Newport for the past few
DAYS. He succeeded Capt. Clarence
Sample, resigned. Capt. Cusick will re-
main on the Newport until the com pany
can secure competent wheelman.
The cable for the free ferry has ar
rived. 1t weighs about two ton and has
been delivered on the river bank at the
Newport approach of the ferry. 1t can
not be laid until the ferry people can
secure permission from the government.
1t seems that the parties having this
portion ni the affair in hand have been
delayed iIt securing the necessary per-
mission.

On the showing made by the citizens
and the report of the business trans
acted at the station. the commissioners
came to the unanimous conclusion that
the present depot facilities were made
quate to the needs OF the town. Mr..
Costello, for the Great Northern, stated
that plans for a new depot at this place
and for change of trackage in the local
yards were at present in headquarters
al st. Paul, and would shortly be ready
for submission to the commission. The
commissioners therefore continued the
hearing until July | , at which time, if
plans have not been submitted to them
they will order the new depot.
Mr.. Costello suggested that the plans
would be submitted to the town council
and Commercial Club before submission
to the commission, and that an oppor-
tunity would then be given for the re-
ception of any suggestions from the citl-
zens.
In the matter of ordering the opening
OF streets across the tracks Mr.. Fair
child stated that the commission had no
jurisdiction, but that they had authority
to order existing crossings properly safe

. Mclean and Kennedy started the
battery work for the lake boys, but they
lost confidence in Mclean in the fourth
and put Ryan in the box. Mclean got
two strike outs and gave one walk,
while Ryan struck out three and hit
one by a pitched ball.
Fox and Foiles did the battery work
for Newport and were there with the
goods. Mike had the lake boys faded from
the start and, to the delight of the fans,
succeeded in striking out thirteen, gave
two walks and hit two bv pitched balls.
With good battery work and good
team work Newport gave good exhibi-
ton of the game, while the playing of
the lake boys was decidedly punk.
The Newport boys showed up we'll in
their new gray uniforms with black
caps and socks, and were accompanied
by about 20 rooters and fans. Next
Sunday the boys 90 to Standpoint and
will do all in their power to keep their

merly of the Newport team, made the
LIBBY boys look like bunch OF monkeys
and won the game for his team by a
score of to 4. There has been a great
rivalry between Bonners Ferry and
Libby, and Bonners Ferry and Troy,

the annual games between these towns
attract the attention of people for miles
around the respective towns.
