OUR SHARE OF
FOREST FUND
Idaho County Has Received
$15,945.1O as its
Portion.

In the distribution of the forest re-
serve funds to the various counties,
the amount which fell to Idaho
county's lot is supposed to be S15,-
945. 10, and has been so quoted in
the dispatches. County Treasurer
Rice received draft from Boise last
week for 81, 5o4 10 at the same time
the letter accompanying the draft
referred to the remittance as SIS
945. 10. Mr.. Rice returned the
draft with notation of the discrepancy.
The fact that this sum is SO far in
excess of the reserve income hereto
fore received, caused Mr.. Rice, like
many others, to look upon the S15,-
o45. 10 statement with more or
less skepticism. However, the cor
rection was made and a draft for
SIS, o45. 10 was received by return
mail by Mr.. Rice.

attractions of the entire entertainment.
All of the latest songs and comedy

effect Besides being for a commend
able purpose, the entertainment will

1900 FEET OF
NEW SIDING
Railroad Fixing up Yards
and Putting in New
Siding.

The work train, known as the
"ditcher," which has been out on
the line at work, has been called into
Grangeville and is now fixing up the
yards here, by ballasting, leveling,
etc, and will also put in some 1900
feet of additional siding for the ac-
commodation of increasing business
and warehouse facilities. A state
ment was made in the Globe some
time since regarding this intended
improvement, and the other conven-
fences mentioned in that article will
also come in due time. They are
needed, and the railroad company
seems disposed to do the right thing
just as fast as it can get to it. A line
of we'll appointed warehouses will no
doubt now soon be in evidence in the
depot vicinity to greet the eyes of the
prospective settlers as they steam in
to town.
