same price that many horses would
have sold for in '94-95.
There were seven cars of hogs
shipped out from this station last Fri

the producers of Camas Prairie. Such

From $24 to SIS per Car.
JOINT OPERATION SURE CO
Present Ballasting no Good, new
Tactics to be Adopted.

General Agent w. ]. Jordan, who
was in the city over Wednesday, says
there is no longer any doubt in regard
to the joint operation of the Lewiston
Grangeville road by the Northern Pa
cihc and 0. R. & n. interests.
Mutually acceptable terms have been
agreed upon and the new system of
operation will begin in the very near
future. This will also extend to the
Lewiston-Riparia road.
But the news that is the most ac-
ceptable to the people of this section
is the statement made by Mr.. Jordan
that the rates on stock will be reduced
on July oath from the present rate of
S24 to the more reasonable sum of
SIS per car. This is the announce
ment that has been looked forward to
with great expectancy for a number
of weeks, and will be welcomed by
everybody.
l would be more than pleased to
see the people on the Prairie given a
greatly reduced rate along all lines, "
said Mr.. Jordan, "if such course
could be pursued consistent with bust
ness principles. But people so often
do not stop to consider that this piece
of road is one of the most expensive
in construction in the Northern Pacific
system for its length. And it must be
borne in mind that it is not yet finish

LOOKS GOOD
AT ELK CITY
Grangeville Citizen Visits Elk
Metropolis and Likes the
Showing.

Mark Howe, the veteran hotel
man, made trip into Elk City last
week for the first time in two years.
Time was when those trips were
made by him sometimes as often as
the moon changed, in fact Mark put
down the first 100 feet on the Ameri-
can Eagle mine, and had lease on
the same and at one time an offer of
sos. 600 was made him for the mine,
but the sale was blocked by treachery.
So 1t is not the opinion of a tender
foot when Mr. Howe says he has
never seen as fine an outlook for the
ELK district during the many years he
has known that section as at the pres
ent time. 1t is not only what the
people there are doing, and say they
are going to do, that impresses the
visitor, but there is an air of conf
dence and show of prosperity that
carries absolute conviction that Elk
City will never again lose its grip on
capital and progressiveness.
The air is full of the big strike near
the EpSy, or south FORK mines, on
what is known as the Center Star,
where several feet of free milling ore,
as aging something like $500 per ton,
was struck few days ago; of the three
gold dredges that are being installed;
of the wonderful showing in the Bus
ter, where fine body of ore of suf1i-
cient magnitude to furnish three year
work is now blocked out and in sight.
These, with minor mining events
furnish interesting topics of CONVEX
sation, while the fact that the three
hotels are doing rushing business
and the two larger ones are building
additions doubling their capacity,
clinches the fact there is something
going on there.

IN cattle or hogs, and the best means
ior reaching the desired ends for mar
ketlng purposes, nothing has ever
been accomplished or even attempted.
while funds for such experiments have
never been withheld.
In regard to the published state
ments that the board possessed letter
positively incrlminating Prof. French
IN the attempt to remove the aori-
cultural college from the university
Mr.. Sweet says no such claim was
ever made by the board, and that il is
not improbable that the report oripi-
mated among the friends and adherents
OF Mr. French. But that there are
other good and sufficient reasons for
the belief that Mr.. French was heartily
II sympathy with such action.
1t has always been the policy of the
board where dissatisfaction with any
OF the instructors from any cause has
arisen, to keep their own counsel in
the matter and to accept a voluntary
resignation from the person without
publicity or friction. Such a course
was open to Mr. French, but he re-
fused to accept it, preferring to carry
the matter into public print and thereby
attempt to coerce the board into re-
tanning him whether satisfactory to
them or not. This action on the
part of Mr.. French has finally forced
the board for the time being to for
sake the nonpublicity policy, in de-
Tense of the truth and the best interests
of the university. This is greatly re-
gretted by the board, but no Other
course was open to it.
The Moscow Star-Mirror of last
week gives full details from the rec
ords of many of the points of differ
ence under discussion, and it is stating
it mildly to say that its version
sheds but little glory upon Mr.. French
as an experimenter in agriculture anc
stock raising. We would be pleased
to give the report in detail, but space
forblds.
