Lumberiack's Kind Heart

Sunday afternoons Swede lumberiack
coming up Washington avenue spied a
poorly dressed youngster peering eagerly
into the window of Waterman's estab-
lishment at the display of fruit and
candy. The lumberjack took him inside
and bought him all the good things a
boy of his size could covet or carry
away, then noticing that the little fellow
was poorly clad, hunted up one of the
merchants and getting him to open his
store bought the boy head-to-foot out
fit.
1t was deed of genuine Christian
charity. and the Swede umberjack who
performed it had his return of pleasure
in the happiness of the little fellow
A marriage license was issued at Sand
point this week to Peter O'Handley and
Miss Bertha lIackworth, of Newport.

BONNER PETITION REJECTED
Faulty Signatures Give Grounds
for Rejection.
Dries Preparing Another Petition

There will be no local option election
in Bonner county. at least not until May
or June. the board of commissioners
having on Monday rejected the petition
signed by lS40 voters, calling for such
election.
Considerable interest attached to the
hearing on the merits of the petition
held before the board last week. Both
the vets and dries were represented by
legal counsel, and the points at variance
we're carefully argued and threshed out.
Attorneys for the vets argued that the
whole petition was illegal, inasmuch as
the affidavit sworn to by j. +. Armfield
and }. M. Prater was not in accordance
with the statutes, and that it could not
be taken into consideration by the COM
missioners.
The petition was also attacked on the
ground that the various sheets of it had
been pasted, pinned and otherwise fas-
tened together, and that there was no
assurance that some of the sheets were
part of the original petition that several
of the names on the long list had been
written by one party. for instance, some
man might sign his own name as we'll as
that of his wife, and, on the other hand,
it might be directly opposite. Numer-
Gus signers had not complied with the
law in signing their names, inasmuch as
they gave no postoffice address, while
many others, instead of writing their
postoffice and residence address, had
simply used ditto marks underneath
postoffice or residence above
A letter to the county auditor from
Newport was signed by dozen more
residents from there, in which all re-
quested that their names be taken from
the list, giving as their reason that they
were not residents of Bonner county at
the time the petition was signed by
them.
In the vote on the rejection of the pc
tition Chairman T. G. Bell and Commits
sioner Finstad voted to reject, while
Commissioners Peterson favored the ac-
ceptance of the petition.
The leaders of the dries say that the

DO|NCS OF THE NEW COUNCIL
New Administration Starts On
Its Work.
Mayor Appointments Confirmed

The first meeting of the new town
council was held at the Town Hall Tues
day evening, Jan. Is. Mayor Fox was
in the chair, with Councilmen Lutz,
Lusher, Millard and Torreson present.
The old matter of draymen's license,
which has caused other councils consld-
cradle trouble, was the first to bob up,
in the shape of petition signed by W..
f. Gale, G. T.. Cozon, P. Shull and W :.
F. Knight. They allege that they are
paying the prescribed license, $l2 per
year, and ask that the town marshal be
instructed to collect license from other
parties occasionally indulging in dray
business, or compel them to quit but
ting in. The council felt that the dray-
men should have appeared in person to
make more specific their complaint, and
therefore laid the petition on the table.
Petition of r. S. Anderson for an ex-
tension of one year of electric light fran
chise granted him in December, 1908,
was received and read, having been re-
ferred to the new council by the old one.
Mr.. Anderson set forth in his petition
that he was in need of more time to get
his system under way, and that he had
already expended $4,000 on same. On
motion of Torreson, seconded by Mil
lard the petitiOn was denied.
Report of J. NJ. Mcdonald, police
Judge, OF IS In fines collected during the
month of December. was read and APP
proved.
The MAYOR announced the following
appointive officers for the ensuing term:
Day Marshal-E. j. Jenne.
Police judge. M. Mcdonald.
Town Clerk k-Edward Britton.
Attorney-E. l. Jones.
Health Officer-Dr. j. Il. Phillips.
All of these appointments having been
confirmed unanimously, Councilman
Lusher moved that the mayor having
made no appointment for night marshal
the present official, c. S. Straight, be
continued in service until such time as
the mayor would make other appoint
ment. The mayor stated that he had
understood that on the score of economy
The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1910-01-20

action of the board will cut little figure
with the election, except for the fact
that it will delay the election about 80
days. inasmuch as it will be impossible
to present another petition to the COM
missioners calling for a special election
on the question before the next regular
meeting, which will be held on the sec-
ond Monday of April, which is the 1lth
of that month
In the meantime the dries assert they
will circulate the petition to the various
sections of the county, in an effort to
get as many or more signatures as the
petition just rejected.
In case new petitions are filed with
the clerk of the board of commissioners
ten days before the next regular meet
ing. the board will be obliged to act on
it at that time, calling special election
on the question not less than 80 nor more
than 80 days from the time of the filing
of the petition. This will bring the
election between the fourth day of May
and the first day of June, in case the
petitions are in conformity with the law
on the question. The law fixes the day
of holding the election on Wednesday.
No more licenses will be issued by the
Bonner county board for "package" sa-
looms, such as has been operated at
Albeni Falls. The board granted IL
censes at Newport to w. s. Griffith, J.
II. Bruins & Co. and d. M. Mangone and
to Albeni Porier at Albeni Falls.

Hearing Contests of Patents

Before United States Commissioner
Sidney W. Rogers there has been in
progress this week the hearing of the
contests instituted by the United States
Forest Service against the granting of
homestead patents to Chas. D. Pease.
George K. Washburn and Bert H Meade.
Messrs. Brown and Jenkins, special
agents OF the Interior department, are
appearing to prosecute the cases. For
the defendants. Attorneys Goodsell.
Perkins and Ludden have appeared.
Each of the men contested have made
final proof on their homesteads, but
have not we: received their patents.
Allegations are made that they have
failed to establish sufficient residence to
entltle them to receive the patents, and
also that there has not been sufficient
cultivation of the land.
The homesteads are located in the
LeClerc creek basin, in the heart of the
best white pine timber in this section.
NAA'A ANS CA eiACoC IlOulCSIcduS were IuaOG
before the land was thrown into the
Kaniksu National Forest. The Forest
Service has shown unusual diligence in
endeavoring to oust homesteaders from
this region, on account of the fine tim
Der with which the land is covered. Last
winter there were about 80 contests in
stituted in that neighborhood, of which
only about half dozen were decided in
favor of the settlers. Most of these
cases in which the settlers lost out will
be appealed to Secretary Ballinger, of
the Interior department, whose decision
in the matter will be final. That Bal
LANCER may be retained in Office and that
his trouble with Pinchot and the Forest
Service will aid them in their argument
before him, is the hope of the settlers.
The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1910-01-20

but one marshal should be appointed
and that the sentiment was that he
| should be day man. However, the
councilman were of the unanimous opin-
ion that the town should have night
man for night watch and police protec-
ton and the mo, ion was carried.
Mayor Fox announced that he had not
completed arranging his committee ap-
pointments, but would make them
known at the next regular meeting.
Day Marshal Jenne was also instruct
ed to act as truant officer.
Councilman Lutz brought up the
matter of licensing pool tables, but the
matter was laid over until the next
meeting.
Attorney Jones was instructed to draft
an ordinance covering the levying of
assessments for the street grade work.
A communication was received from
Cannon & Lee, attorneys for the town in
the case started against it by the saloon
men, contesting the validity of the local
option election, in which it was stated
that the court had rendered judgment
against the saloon men and the judg-
ment had been made matter of record.
