Mr.. President. Mr.. Speaker. Fellow

Old County Officers Retire and
New Ones Step in.
JOLLY EACH OF H E R
Protest From j. B. Carter is
Tabled by Board.

The great biennial county seat event
has been pulled off, and the wheels of
routine official duty have begun grind
ing under the new regime without the
skip of cog.
There was forenoon meeting of
the county commissioners, with {.
Nj. Butler and NJ. S. Martin of the
old board and Herman NonBargen of
the new present, Chas. Bentz, OF
White Bird, having been delayed by
the snow storm. After the approval
of the bonds of the new members and
few preliminaries were attended to
adjournment was taken until after
noon, when, without elaborate cere-
mony Mr.. Martin retired and the
oath of Office was administered to the
two recently elected commissioners,
Messrs. VonBargen and Bentz. The
other newly elected county officials
were then brought onto the carpet
and the oath of office administered to
them by the new board in the follow
ing order: ]. f. Jaques, probate
Judge; +. c. Spedden, surveyor, J.
M. Gilmore, attorney; P. M. Clan
Vile, superintendent; J. f. Byron,
sheriff; J. NJ. Wilson, assessor; +.
S. Rice, treasurer. A letter of pro-
test from ]. B. Carter, against the
granting of a certificate of election to
PM. Glanville, on technical grounds,
was tabled by the commissioners.
The new officials, one and all, re-
ceived the oath and assumed the of.
fetal honors with becoming dignity
none of them so much as flushing ;
blush, with the exception of Franl
Rice. The transfer of official au
thority was simply, effectively an'
expeditiously made without Supurfu
Gus gush or red tape proceeding
which is most gratifying.

ARREST OF FOUR YOUNG MEN
For Disturbing the Peace, Develops Ev-
idence Against Two Saloon Men.

There was somewhat of a time at
the Royal cafe on last Saturday night
as the hours were shifting to another
day, in which four young men of our
community, ranging in age from 10 to
19 years, participated on the one
hand, and the cook at the cafe and two
somewhat inebrlated customers on
the other, with the result that some
dishes were smashed up, a glass
in the front door broken out and a
few bruises sustained. The boys
were arrested on complaint of the
cook, and on Monday were arralgned
before Police Judge Jaques. The
boys declined the proffer of legal as
sistance, preferring to make a straight
forward statement of their side of the
case and trust to the clemency of the
court. On being closely croSS-ex-
amined by City Attorney Hattabaugh,
the evidence disclosed the fact that
the boys were drinking at the time of
the disturbance, and that the liquor
was bought of Pat Courtney and T..
+. Neighbor, bartender at the Semp-
ert saloon.
Anticipating some such developments
Stenographer Chadwick had been Sc
cured to take down the evidence in
the case, and inside of thirty minutes
after the evidence was in, County At
torney Gilmore had a warrant in the
hands of the sheriff for the arrest oI
the men who sold the boys the in
toxicantS. On their appearance the
case was set for hearing on Friday
morning of this week and they were
released on their own recognizance.

Injured While Sleighing.

A number of the high school stu
dents started out for Slelghing lark
on last Friday evening, with the
Arthur Overman home, near Tolo,
as the objective point. There were
two four-horse sled loads of the party,
with Elmer Schnell and Fred Bonney
in the lead in cutter. They were
going at a pretty good clip, when
something happened to the cutter,
and at the same time the four-horSe
team Immediately behind becoming
excited at something, became for the
moment uncomfortable, and as Schnell
and Bonney drew their team to a
halt, the four horses came rushing
upon them. The cutter was crushed
into kndling wood and the horses
becoming entangled stacked up in a
pile, with young Schnell underneath
them. The harness had to be cut
to get the horses loose, when the
young man was pulled out from the
debris more dead than alive, so far
as appearances went. However,
when brought back to town, and the
doctor had taken him through a
rigid inspection, it was disclosed thai
he really had but one rib fractured,
but carried as many marks and bruise:
as battle scared veteran. The boys
team ran away and was not founc
until next day The remainder O
the party reached the Overmar
place where they were royalty enter
tanned.

Expects to Open New Hostelry
Not Later Than May 1st.
#. A. TAMBLYN LESSEE
Will Operate on Both American
and European Plan.

The citizens of Grangeville will be
pleased to lear that the final steps
toward the completion and operation
of the Imperial" the new hotel
structure, have been taken this week,
and that it is now definitely settled
that this magnificent hostelry will be
in full operation by the first of May,
no unforeseen obstacles arising.
Mr. Frank A. Tamblyn, of Spo-
kane, the gentleman whom the stock
holders in the Imperial have long had
in view as the man best fitted to occu-
py the position of mine host at
the new hotel, accompanied by Mrs.
Hambly, arrived here Sunday evening.
Since which time he has been going
over thesdetails of the business trans
action with w. w. Brown and other
of our inter ested citizens, until a
mutual and satisfactory understanding
was reached, and when the gentleman
and wife left on the "Wednesday
morning train, Messrs. w. w.
Brown and J. A. Turner accompan-
led them as far as Lewiston, where
the final papers will be drawn.
The points under discussion were
the early finishing of the structure
and the completion of the interior
hnshings. Also whether or not il
would be advisable to complete the
third story at the same time as the
other two stories. Mr.. Hamblyr
urging this, it was readily conceded
70, and an understanding was reached
that hurry up measures would be
adopted from now on. This means
that the entire building will be com.
pleted at the earliest date possible.
Mr. Hamblyn is a very courteous
pleasant gent eman, and in respons,
to the Globe representative query
as to his proposed plan for operating
the Imperial, he gave ready answer
stating that he desired the people
here to fully understand that everyone
would receive hospitable welcome
at his house, from the laboring maj
to the nabob, The dining room will
be divided by screens into two parts
one to be operated on the Europeal
and the other on the American plan
thus meeting the desires and demand
of either the furriner'' or the ma
tive born citizen. "And," tn
gentlsman added in closing, yo
may say the prices will be right 70
ALL"
Mr. Hamblyn is very enthusiast
over the utlook for Grangeville'
future, and is pleased with the friendly
cordial manner displayed toward stran
gers by our citizens.

Engineer Arrowwood Injured.

Sunday evening Engineer c. A.
Arrowwood, on the passenger train
of the new line, narrowly escaped
being crushed to death through the
mistaking of a signal by the fireman.
MIR. Arrowwood after the arrival of
the train in Grangevlle, jumped
down from the cab and leaving the
fireman in charge of the engine,
went back to uncouple the train.
Stepping in between the tender and
baggage car, he was in the act of
uncoupling when the lever was re-
versed and the tender bumped into
the baggage car, catching him the
broad way of the body and squeezing
the breath, and for time it was
feared, the life out of him. >He fell
to the ground limp and was hastily
carried to the hotel where DR.
Campbell the n. P. surgeon at this
place, was called The examination
revealed the fact that no bones were
broken, but it was feared for time
that there might be internal injury.
However, this proved to not be the
case, and reports received from

was taken, are to the effect that he
