CASE is NOT TO BE PUSHED.
Settlement Has Been Made by Ander-
son Bank for $4,000.
(Anderson IntelligenceT.D }


Proof as positive as 1t can be
made is in possession OF the Intelli-
gencer that the directors of the Bank
of Anderson did accept $4,000, rails
ed by friends Of J. Il. Holleman, the
missing cashier, aud that 1T was tao
lily understood when the money was
accepted that the defaulter would not
be prosecuted, provided he remained
out of the State. In effect the Intel
ligencer printed a story to this ac-
count shortly after the bank cashier
had fled. In statement sent to the
other papers the bank officials denied
this rumor. Now this paper is in
possession of statement from one
of the directors of the hank that the
money was accepted, and that so
long as Holleman stays out of South
Carolina the bank officials will not
beStir themselves to apprehend him
In fact. the bank has taken no
active steps towards the apprehen-
sion of the missing cashier. The
grand jury returned an indictment
and Governor Ansel has issued re-
ward of 500 for the capture of the
fugitive, but the directors of the in
stitution from which the cashier got
something over $4,000 have done
nothing to place the man in the GUS
tody Of the officers
So far as we are concerned it
makes no difference If Mr. Holleman
got one million dollars and returned
but one-tenth of it; but the example
is bad one and may have ten
dency to make others entrusted with
money skip out with large sums and
rely upon getting free by returning
small part of the amount they
filched. The principle of the thing
is wrong.
But the Intelligencer prints this in
justification Of itself We knew that
we were right before and we know it
now. The money was made up and
accepted, and we can prove it.

will Leave the Valley

Rev. l. W. Rhodes, who for year or
more has ministered to the spiritual
wants of the people of the Calispel val
ley, is in the city, taking few weeks of
much needed rest before leaving for the
east. Mr.. Rhodes was very successful
in his work in the valley, faithfully
serving the large district under his care
and fulfilling engagements at the cost OF
of much labor on his part. Especially
during the high water of last year and
during the winter was his work arduous,
but he never missed an engagement
when it was IN any manner possible to
get there. In serving the people OF the
valley Mr.. Rhodes made many warm
friends, who regret to see him leave this
section. His farewell address at Cusick
an Easter day was attended bv the
largest congregation ever assembled in
the valley and a substantial sum was
collected for his benefit. He will leave
in few weeks for Ludington, Mich, to
take up the work of the ministry in that
vicinity.

Select Newport ferrynlan

From the published report of the
proceedings of the Bonner county
commissioners we take the follow
ing:
The board proceeded to examine
the bids filed for ferryman at New
port. After careful examination
of all bids submitted, it appearing
to the satisfaction of the board that
the bid of Carl o. Vail was the
best bid submitted, it was ordered
by the board that the bid of the
said Carl O. Wahl be accepted FOR
running the ferry at Newport at a
salary of s75 per month.
The following bids were rejected
w. H. Seitz for $54 per month, J.
O. Newsom for the sum OF so per
month, E. II. G. McCurdy for the
sum of $75 per month, r. J. TaN Tor
for the sum of $40 per month, Paul
Bernstein for the SUN Of $500 per
year, Arthur Bremen for the sum OF
$55 per month.

Offered Good Price for Bonds

DR.. Il. W. Sutherland returned We'd.
nesday night from Colville. where he
has been the past two weeks attending
the session of thecounty commissioners.
Among the important marters that
came up at the past session was the sale
OF the bonds to take mp the outstanding
warrant indebtedness, amounting to
$2l9, 500. The commissioners received
several bids for the bonds, the best Of
which was for A per cent with prem
ium of $3.50. They were, however.
unable to sell them, as it was discov-
cred that their procedure was illegal
because Of the fact that the election of
last fall had been carried instead of lost
as had been supposed. The commits
sloners have therefore re-advertised for
the sale OF the bonds on Nav IA. and
from the favorable bids received last
week It Is safe to presume that they will
be able to dispose of them. The sale OF
the bonds will save the county between
$1,000 and $4,000 year in interest.

Saw Some Fine Street Lights.

The city council and some of the
members of the executive committe of
the Commercial Club were guests of the
Northern Idaho & Montana Power Co.,
at Standpoint last Friday night, inspect
ing the power plant and street lighting
system of that city.
The Standpoint plant has two COM
plete equipments capable Of taking care
of the whole load of the city's power
and light demands. Twenty-four hour
service is being given and appears to be
eminently satisfactory to the people of
that city. Another 500 kilowatt unit is
to be installed within few months to
take care of the growing business of that
city and the transmission line to New
port, which will give this city "a hour
service as soon az the new unit and
transmission line can be built
The lighting system is the latest and
best produced and won unstinted adj
miration from the visitors. What ia
known as a metallic fame arc" has
been installed producing a beautiful
light with far reaching rays. They have
power equal to about four of our pres
ent arc lights. For the residence dis
trlcts the new tungsten incandescents
are used making very fine illumination.
Standpoint is certainly finely lighted
city and presents an appearance at
night which cannot fail to impress
strangers with the thought that it is
progressive. Electric signs are numer-
Gus and help to further the impression
that the town is up to-date in every par
ticular.
The Northern Idaho & Montana Power
Co., has offered to install in Newport Is
OF the metallic fame arcs, or their equiv
alent, at the rate OF 1925 per month per
arc. The council has not vet taken
action on this matter but it appears to
be favorably considered as it would pro-
vide much better lighting arrangement
than we have at present with but little
| added cost.

Rheumatism

More than nine out of every ten cases
of rheumatism are simply rheumatism of
thees mules, due to cold or damp. or
chronic rheumatism. In such cases no
internal treatment is required. The
free application of Chamberla,ns Lini-
ment is all that is needed, and it is
certain to give quick relief. Give it a
trial and see for yourself how quickly
it relieves the pain and soreness. The
medicine usually given internally for
rheumatism are poisonous Or very
strong medicines. They are worse than
useless in cases of chronic and muscu-
lar rheumatism. For sale by Adams

What Women Want.

What women want today. what they
always have wanted, what they will
want SO far as we can see. as long as
human nature is human nature, il
something to take care Of. From the
washerwoman with her half dozen
babies always underfoOt and In the
way to the celebrated professor of
geology the dream is the same-some-
thing to take care OF. Learning does
not quench the instinct nor wealth de.
stroy 1t nor Independence deaden it.
A woman at the very top Of one Of the
learned professions recently explained
her economies by saying she was in
vesting in little farm. on which she
intended to bring up little adopted
boy and girl, adding, with infinite
pathos. "The part will have to play
will be fathers and not the mothers
because of my work, but it will be
worth while anyway" No political du-
ties or interests are going to change
this instinct. Conditions have changed
women's occupations: necessarily she
has changed her methods to meet the
needs, but she is still the caretaker.

All Weeds shoaid BE Cut Out Below
the Surfscs Of Sod
Well kept and fine appearing lawns
add materially to the appearance Of a
town. and now is the time to attend
to them SO that they will look well next
spring.
All weeds and crab grass should be
cut out. using sharp. narrow bladed
knife. Docks and crab grass cannot be
eradicated by moving. The roots must
be cut about an inch below the sur
face. They may then be pulled out
without injuring the sod Run the
mower over the sod occasionally. Let
the fine cut grass remain on the sod.
The first heavy rain will wash it down
among the grass roots. and when rot
ted it will help to protect the grass
roots from deep freezing in winter and
hot. dry weather in summer.
Where there are bare spots in the
sod sow a little new crop grass seed
and rake 1t in. Before winter sets in a
thick dressing of fine. sifted. rich ma
nure should he spread over the grass.
Rotted manure is the best fertilizer.

Street Tree Guards.

For most Of the mechanical injuries
to street trees a protector Of some
form Is necessary. Protectors are Of
three kinds. The young tree needs a
support to hold its trunk erect and its
roots in place against the soil. 1t also
needs guard to shield 1t from the
bites Of horses and other injuries to it's
stem. And II often needs grill to
prevent the trampling Of the earth
about its base and the consequent in
Jury to its roots. The hest guards are
made Of iron and. although somewhat
expensive, are widely used, especially
