An East Second street family en-
tertained a few friends with Dutch
lunch the other night. A real up
to-date Dutch lunch has limburger
cheese on its bill of fare, and this
was the real thing. A neighbor
passing by the on the other side of
the street the next morning, smelling
and awful smell, hollered out: Say,
jim, you folks must have several
dead cats around the house, or else
you need fumigating."

A Texas real estate man, writing
to friend back here, was trying to
give some idea of the productiveness
of the Texas soil. He said that they
had to NOV the grass off the sod
house floor every day to find the
baby. One family near him had
twin babies, with only one cradle,
and the baby that had to sleep on
the floor grew twice as fast as the
other. Where the soil is richest a
man dares not stand on one foot any
length of time lest that leg become
longer, and bother his walking.
That state should attract the atten-
ton Of Charlie Reed and j. w. Pow
ers.

Pittsburg & Gilmore Completed
in Eighteen Months.
TO BE THE MAIN LINE.
Will Connect at Grangeville With
the High Line.

Seattle, July l9. Among railroad
men il is believed that the Pittsburg s.
Gilmore Valley Railway company
which is building 65 miles of stand
ard guage railroad from Armstad, a
Hartman station in Montana, to Sal
mon, at the head of the Salmon river
in Idaho, is Hartman company.
The line is building directly in the
route of the long projected connection
of the Oregon Short Line, a Harri-
man road operating between Pocatello
and Butte, and Granger, the present
terminus of the Oregon Short Line in
Wyoming. The Oregon Short Line
in southern Montana will be joined
by the best practicable grade obtainable
to the Hartman branch at Grange
vile within the next 18 months.
TO BE MAIN LINE.
There is good reason to believe the
statement of engineers that the new
road will ultimately become the main
line of Harriman's Chicago-Seaule
road enabling the operation of through
trains via Pocatello on the main line
of the Oregon Short Line (Union
Pacific to Seattle via Grangeville,
Lewiston and the Snake river to
connection at Pasco with the North
Coast railway, which is under con-
struction from Pasco to point on the
| Northern Pacific in Coulitz connfv
Washington.
ANOTHER ROAD TO USE TRACKS.
The Chicago s. Northwestern,
which is closely affiliated with the Har-
riman interests, and whose temporary
western terminus is Granger, Wyo.,
is expected to use the Pittsburg & Gil
more Valley and North Coast railroads
to Seattle, Tacoma and Portland.

EFFECT ON THE SCHOOL

1t is generally conceded that the
wet and dry election campaign
which is just now opening up, will be
fairly warm one. But it is presumed
that both sides are honestly contend
ing for what they think is right, and
that facts and not speculations is what
is desired on the mooted questions
arising. Assuming such to be the
case, the Globe has thought it proper
to look into the following statement
which appeared in the Lewiston
Tribune OF the 10th. Among other
things the communication says:
The probable results of the carry
ing of the proposed issue are already
being considered and it is stated to-
night that the school term in the
Grangevile independent school dis
trict will be reduced from 9 to 4
months in the event the election is
successful.
A few figures from the records
show the above statement to be con-
siderably off. The total amount ac-
cruing to the school last year from the
saloon license was something over
50, 900; the total expense of conduct
ing the school last term was S10,-
920.35 If put in round numbers,
calling the license receipts one-third
of the school expenses, if the district
had no other means of raising the
amount secured from license sources,
there would still be six months OF
school. But members of the board,
however, state that they are well
within the statutory tax limit, and that
there will be no shortening of the
school term, no matter which way
the election goes. The statutes pro-
vide for 20 mill levy in Independent
districts. This district levied II mills
last year for all purposes, 8 mills fol
school and 3 mills for bond and sink
ing fund purposes, which would leave
9 mills levy yet to be used if neceS-
sary, but as the total amount of the
license was less than mills of the
amount and there has been material
increase in the valuation in this dis
trict through the advent of the rail-
road and growth of the city, such a
thing is not at all likely These are facts
taken from the records of the school
clerk and county treasurer Office.

Idaho County Fair Association.

On last Friday night at the meeting
OF the governing board of the Com
mercial Club, steps were taken for
the formation of permanent Fair AS
socIatlon for Idaho county with ex-
pressed intention of holding a county
fair each fall with full exhibits of all
county products, including cerals,
poultry, stock, fruits, ores, etc.
In furtherance of this idea a COM
mlttee composed of Cyrus Oyerman,
r. 5. Sweet and Mark Howe was ap-
pointed for the purpose of soliciting
funds with which to purchase grounds,
equip the same and set the enterprise
floating. This is matter in which
every citizen in Idaho county is in
terested and it should meet with the
hearty cooperation of every promoter
and booster in the county. The sue
cesstul operation of county fair vii
enhance the value of property the
county over, and therefore every citi-
zen should speak a good word for the
movement and help boost it along
financially as well. The Commercial
Club bespeaks for the soliciting com.
mittee fair and liberal consideration
at your hands.

Club Favors the Golf Bridge.

The Grangeville Commercial Club
has expressed its hearty approval of
the Golf bridge project and its will
lingneSs to cooperate in any manner
it can in the promotion of the same.
At a meeting last Friday night at
which the Board of County Com
missioners was present, the Club
passed resolutions expressive of its
sympathy with the enterprise and re-
questing that the citizens of the county
lend helping hand financially to
make good the shortage over and above
the SO, 000Fappropriated by the legls-
lature for the construction of the
bridge.

Date of Local Option Election
Fixed Last Friday.
ONE MONTHS CAMPAIGN
Aug. Likely to be Hot and Busy
Month in Idaho Co.

When the County Commissioners
met on the 18th inst. those opposed
to calling an election on the question
of the continuance of saloons in Idaho
county, asked that the board postpone
action in the matter until the last of
the session. In Difference to this re-
quest no action was taken until last
Friday, at which time the commits
sioners again brought up the petition
of 1888 names filed by the Local
Optionists, and finding that the 40
per cent required by law had been en-
ceeded by some 900 names, the
election was called, the date of which
was set for Wednesday, August 18th,
notice of which appears elsewhere in
this paper.
This means that the people of Ida
no county are to have the opportunity
to express themselves on the question
of whether or not they want the sa-
looms to continue. This will be
strictly the issue, with politics entirel,
eliminated from the campaign, and
should be the means of settling ir
our county this mnch discussed ques.
ton definitely one way or the other
The temperance people have called
the matter up, with the expressed
belief that a majority of the voter,
of the county are in favor of abolish
ing the saloons, and it is now up tc
them to establish that claim or admi
the unwisdom of their action.

SPECULATION QUIET ON ADv|CES OF
 F|NANC|ERS
Immense Transactions Mark Clearing House Report
 for Yesterday

NEW YORK, November 3.-The quiet condition of speculation which many financial authorities have been advising for several weeks was in evi- dence today. It is supposed to be due, in part, to delay in the return from election day holiday visits of part of the brokerage fraternity.
 Sufficient uncertainty is acknowl- edged in the money outlook to account for the halting tendency in the mark ct $ activity. Figures of clearing house exchanges gave a hint of a special de- mand on banks. Settlements effected between clearing house banks for Mon. day amounted to the prodigious total of $736, ,46l ,549. The nearest approach ever made to these figures was on Jan nary 3, 1906 when the exchanges were reported at $6S6,sS4 ,S90.,
 During October clearing house ex- changes ran high throughout the coun- try, in many instances constituting re- cords at important points, This is one of the evidences of expanding trade activity in the country and the eonse- quent demand for money.
 Large orders for new equipment be ing placed by the railroads helped the stocks of the companies in those in dustries. Copper stocks were helped by reports of large sales recently made
 Pennsylvania showed further unfav' orable effect from the decision to issue it's new stock to stockholders as low as par.

BALL GAME RUNS |NT0 B|G
 FIGURES
Scorekeeper Unable to Re cord Runs and Outcome
 Still in Doubt

Comedy was rampant at School hill park yesterday afternoon when the Iris baseball bunch beat the Maiestics by a score so big that the score keeper quit the job and went out to buy a bottle of nerve tonic before the game was half over.
 Anyhow, the Iris gang scored eigh- teen runs in the first inning and all the Majestic crowd ever saw was three measley tallies. Several innings were played but the exact number of runs scored will be learned by the time ~the Cook Peary controversy is settled maybe.
 That first act was something fright ful. Milo Kibbe pitched and somebody else caught The Iris crowd damned Milo's benders all over the lot and when they couldn't hit they just natur- ally sneaked down to first and around to the home slab.
 Jimmy Lee decided that he could save the day if he went into the box and as he wash t. any faster at short stopthan dog with tallow legs would be in blast furnace, his team mates consented to the change.
 Did he save the day? Well not yet. Jimmy couldn't get 'em past the bat ters and if he did, Bill Rose, who essayed to back up that Irish comedi- an, promptly let all the wide ones lodge in the grand stand while he yelled for assistance and mattress to protect himself with.
 When the smoke of the first act had cleared away somewhat, the Majestics managed to sneak in three runs while the Iris infielders were having scrap over the question as to whether Jim Jeffries or Billy Cummings wrote ''Home, Sweet Home" After that there was nothing to it. The Broad street outfit kept on making runs until they tired of the monotony and the game was called-what it was called won t do to print-on account of dark ness.
 The game was not so bad, however as both aggregations did some real work and it goes without saying that the change did them good.

STOCKHOLDERS IF KEYSTONE MEET
 YESTERDAY
Old Stock May Soon Appear on Market After Set
 ting Disputes

An important meeting of the stock. holders of the Keystone Copper com. pany was held yesterday by local own. CTS who hold practically all the of the stock issued by the old company.
 Several minor disputes among stock, holders were amicably settled and as the result, the old stock will probably go on the market again today. It is the general belief, however, that this security will be difficult to obtain.
 As the result of recent transaction the Lewissohn interests now control the Keystone company. No Notation of the new stock has yet been made although it is probable that some action along this line will be taken next spring.
 The Keystone property is regarded as one of the most promising in tho district.
