(From Mountaineer. J

}. L. Gross received his saw mill
machinery yesterday which was shipp-
ed from Chicago several weeks ago.
For some time no trace of it could be
found, but chances are it was stuck in
a snow bank somewhere east of the
Rockies where it is winter nine months
in the year.
j. d. burlington returned last Sat
urday from visit in Spokane. On
his way home he stopped at Potlatch,
the town with the big saw mill, and
spent several days in that locality Wis
iting friends and relatives. He con-
siders that very good country but no
comparison to the famous Clearwater
valley any way you try to figure it.
The fact that rival engineering
crews are now at work in this section
OF the country seems to furnish mater
ial for outside newspapers with which
to manufacture all kinds of hot-air
stories regarding railroad movements
in the Clearwater country. The daily
papers are adeptsat making mountains
out of mole hills, and most of the
stories appearing are misleading. The
men in charge Of these surveys have
no information to give out, and the

there is no reason why they should be

Matlock said the state relied entirely upon the physical facts and S1ne circumstantial evidence, to- 1eI yer with the improbable story of Es, defendant as to the tragedy and 7 what led up to it. He said Day is the only living eye witness and that the state would contend throughout that the killing of Duncan was cold lock argued that the statements of the defendant himself would convict him of manslaughter.

Cotton Belt Men To Be Laid Oif'' December 93 and Will Be Put Back to Work January 5.

T. E. Ndans, superintendent ot motive power for the Cotton Belt here, yesterday posted a notice at the local Cotton Belt shops, stating that all departments would close down December 23 and would re- main closed for ten days, resuming operation on Monday, January 3, 1910. The notice was brief and did not explain why this action is to be taken by the company. The notice occasioned great surprise among the eight hundred employees who do not favor the idea of laying them off for ten days. Mir. Adams was out of the city last night and the reasons for the "shut down" could not be learned.
