Did Not Buy Warehouse.

The members of the local
farmers union did not invest in
a warehouse during their meet
ing in this city last Saturday.
They were given figures by S.
W. Edmisten, local agent for the
Kerr-Gifford company, and F. P.
Lint, district agent for the In
terror Warehouse Co. for this
part of Idaho, whose headquar-
ters are at Lewiston, but no
action was taken touching the
offers made further than a de-
cision to consider them at the
next regular meeting of the
union a week from tomorrow.
1t is impossible to say at this
time if either of the offers will
be accepted or not, or if the union
will decide to erect it's own house.

Had An Enjoyable Trip.

John Hoene and family returned
last Saturday evening from their
visit OF several months back east
and report having had a very en-
-Joyable time while away. They
visited for two months at Mr..
Hoene's old home at Effingham,
ILL.,, and for ten days at Chicago
and ten days with relatives at St.
Johns, Wisconsin, and were served
with the best to be had at every
place they stopped. At one place
John says he had quite laughable
experience. With three friends he
went to town after his trunk. The
snow was several feet deep on the
roads and had begun to soften but
they thought they could get through
so borrowed horse and sleigh and
started home with the trunk.
They soon got the horse down in
the snow and were then forced to
pull the sleigh home by hand and
then back to town the same way,
but John said they had lots of fun
out of it anyway.
On the way home they had to
travel much of the way over the
Milwaukee line and were 90 hours
late getting into Spokane.
They were accompanied home by
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Drops, of
Cheboygan, Wis, who intend max
ing their future home in this vicin-
ity. Mrs. Drops is a sister of Mrs.
]. F. Jenny, of this place.
Mr.. Hoene says that his mother,
sister and other relatives, except
his brother Henry, will arrive here
next month to make Idaho their
future home. Quite a number of
Illinois and Wisconsin people ex-
pect to come out here this fall with
a view to locating.

Pays $4,000 For Barth Ranch.

A. H. Haskins, father of Mrs.
I. E. Housh, who arrived here
last Friday from Centralia, Wn.,
closed a deal yesterday for the
purchase of the H. J. Barth farm
northeast of town for $50 an
acre. The farm contains $50
acres of land, and 20 acres of
timber land owned by Mr.. Barth
on the mountain northwest of
this place went in on the deal at
the same figure, making the
price of the farm $21, 900. The
farm is an exceptionally good
one with an abundance of water
and fair improvements. Mr..
Haskins is to have possession of
the place at once and will bring
his family here from Centralia
and take up his residence among
US as soon as possible. He is al
so dickering for the live stock
and machinery on the place and
will be in shape to take up active
farm work as soon as he gets
settled in his new home.
To give an idea of how this
land has increased in value dur
ing the past few years we can
say that the place was purchased
by Mr.. Barth from Adam Brust
about Z years ago for $29 an
acre, including stock and machin-
cry, which makes an advance of
better than S. an acre for each
year Mr.. Barth has owned the
land.

Will BUILD NEW
SCHOOL HOUSE
Members of Local Catholic Church
Vote to Replace Present Build
ing With $4,000 Structure--Sub-
scribe Half the Sum at Once.

At meeting of the members
of the parish at the local Catholic
church after services last Sunday
it was decided to build a new
school house for the parochial
school, owing to the fact that
the present building has for
some time been too small to ac-
commodate the school children
and teachers. The new school
building, it is stated, will cost
about $4,000 and will contain
three school rooms with a seat
ing capacity of about 200. The
building will also contain five
living rooms for the use of the
Sisters who are employed as
teachers.
At the meeting Sunday more
than half of the sum needed to
erect the building was subscrib-
ed by those present and the
balance will be secured without
any difficulty. Work on the new
building; will probably be COM
menced as soon as the details can
be arranged and plans drawn.
The erection of a $4,000 school
building for the sole benefit of
the Catholic children of this par
ish is an improvement of no small
nature and will prove of great
benefit, both to the children, the
Pensioners and the community
at large in affording better pri-
vate school facilities for those
residing here at this time and in
attracting to our city people
from other sections who desire
to take advantage of such educa-
tional facilities.

INDIAN KILLED BY
WOOD ALCOHOL
Lapwai School Boys Steal Liquor
From COmissary---One Dead
and Another in Bad Shape---
Two Recover.

Jazeb Davis, a 16-year old In.
dian student at the Lapwai school
is dead and three of his compan,
ions are in a critical condition as
the result of drinking wood alco.
hol secured from the school COM
mlssary last Saturday. The
alcohol was used in mixing paint
and varnish. After forcing an
entrance to the building and
stealing the alcohol the bows
secreted the bottle in barn and
on Sunday proceeded to consume
it. The other boys were Albert
Davis, 18 years old, of Kamiah,
a brother of the dead youth;
Walter Hays, of Kamiah, 20
years old; and Philip Redbird, of
Ferdinand, q years old.
The effects of the liquor begun
to show on young Davis on Mon
day and he was sent to the dor
mitory where he died from con-
vulsions Monday evening. The
other boys then told of their
escapade and were given treat
ment- Davis and Redbird were
soon out of danger but Hays is
still in bad shape.
Wood alcohol is rank poison
and the symptoms first show in
the eyes. 1t later effects the
heart and lungs and death soon
follows. AS it is hard to distin-
guish from other alcohol many
deaths occur yearly from mis-
taking one liquor for the other.

day is Easter.

ocratic votes were cast. Out of the
65 votes cast in Mottsville precinct
10 were Democratic. In East Fork
precinct the Republicans polled l35
votes at the last general election,
and the Democrats 90. Tuesday
the latter party poled 73 votes and
the former 14S.
The voting at the primaries
shows that many Democrats voted
a Republican ticket to secure the
nomination of some candidate not
on the ticket of their party. This
one point renders the direct pri-
mary law barren of the results for
which it was intended. Voters
should be required to register their
politics at the time of registration
and compelled to vote that ticket
at the election.
