IT has been claimed lately

IT has been claimed lately
that B. +. O'Neil, candidate for
the gubernatorial nomination,
is the authorized agent OF the
Inland Brewing company in
Idaho, and the charge has been
confirmed by the publication of
records in the Office of the secre-
tary OF state at Boise, purport-
ing to show that such is a fact.
Mr.. O'Neils legal right to act as
agent for brewing company is
not questioned by his most
vigorous opponents, but the fact
that he represents such interests
and consequently derives a
profit therefrom, must effect
ually remove him from all claim
to support from the local option
and prohibition elements of his
party.

A number of the young friends of
Geo Weir gave her surprise Monday
evening, the occasion being her seven
tenth birthday. A jolly good time
is reported by all present, and Cleo
says she never received so many
presents in all her life. She wore all
| to school the next day that were
wearable, took sample of the SIX
different kinds of perfume, and is en-
j0ying tie bOnbors and reading the
books 10 between her lessons. Here's
hoping she will live to celebrate her
SEVENTEEN birthday!
This part of Kootenal county is
fast developing into farming com.
mnnity. A few years ago, there were
only few acres being cultivated, and
now they are away up 10 the hun
dreds. Hayes Brothers On the Bench,
for example, have over two hundred
acres in field, and without stump,
Kaye and Trauger have one hundred
fifty, VIM. Brackin one hundred, and
Nose Standeld an equal amount;
while east of town, Chas. Burroughs
and R. e. Butler have half section
apiece in cultivation, and many
more from forty acres up to one
hundred. The day of the pines will
soon be 40 more!

The school board, at Tuesdays
meeting, elected Prof. Geo. E.
McCreary of Davenport, Wash, as
superintendent of the Rathdrum
schools for the next year, at q
salary of $1,000. All but four OF
the subordinate positions remain
open. Misses Georgia Sensiba,
Minnie Berry, Nellie Edwin and
Verna Beavers of the present
teaching corps have been employ.
ed to teach here again next year.
1t is expected that one or two oil
the others, will also sign contract
to remain. 1t is not thought like
ly, however, that teacher Of
English exclusively will be en-
poyed for the high school as the
enrolment there, with the except.
ion of the 10th grade, is small, and
the board believes three teachers
for the four grades, as at present,
will suffice.

ESKIMO FOOTWEAR.
Boots Of the Arctic Regions and How
They Are Made.

Boots Of the Arctic Regions and How
They Are Made.
The Eskimos, as rule, use moth
ing but the sealskin, deerskin, musk
oxen, arctic hare and bird skins for
both their feet and their clothing.
In the first place they skin the hare,
clean and dry it and chew it all over,
and when it is thoroughly dry they
cut it up and make socks to wear
inside Of their seal or deer skin
boots Tin their language called ka-
maks). The sealskin is taken, the
fat cleaned off, a wooden frame
made about foot on the round
larger than the skin, and the skin is
then laced tightly around frame
and kept in the sun until thorough
ly dry.
Then the squaws or women clean
and set about cutting it up into
boots, which are generally made
about two or three sizes too large.
The bottom, or sole, is cut to the
shape of the foot in one piece, the
uppers are joined and sewed to the
edge of the bottom, and the fore
part is sewed to the leg nearly
straight across the instep. The leg
is cut out according to the length
wanted, with receiving string in
the top to tie over, thus keeping the
snow out.
The arctic Eskimos do not use
bark or tan of any kind for their
skins. 1t cannot be procured, and
they do not know how to use it.
Should their boots dry up their la
dies, or squaws, take them and chew
them all over, and in ten minutes
they are as soft as glove. Farther
south and in some parts Of Labra-
dor the skins are barked and thor
oughly dried and when made up last
much longer. 1t makes a good deal
of difference what species of seals
are used. The best by far are the
square ripper and the old harp seal.
Could they get leather and soles for
their boots as we do in this country
it would be an improvement for
summer wear, but would not answer
for winter.
A good pair of skin boots will last
an Eskimo for nearly six months
with constant wear on the ice.-

tendent and Foreman.

One of the men working on the
road west of town met with an
unpleasant experience yesterday
afternoon. While enjoying a
smoke his pipe exploded. His
face was cut badly but no serious
injury resulted, although it seems
almost miracle that his sight was
not destroyed. 1t is thought that
dynamite cap, from the supply
used in blasting stumps, was ac.
cidentally mixed with the tobacco
and caused the explosion The
bowl of the pipe was destroyed. A
similar accident at Harlem a short
time ago, caused the loss of one
eye and the permanent injury Of
the other.

THE forthcoming retirement
OF Aldrich and Hale from the
United States senate, announced
in this weeks news dispatches,
ought to do much to break up
the power OF the Interests in
that branch OF congress and
restore it somewhat in the con-
fidence OF the people, besides
giving an opportunity for the
recovery OF republican prestige.
These two able and powerful
allies have controlled legislation
a long time, and their with
drawal from the scene OF action
will be hailed complacently by
the progressive element OF the
republican party.

A special meeting of the board 81
supervisors was held at the court
house yesterday upon he advice
which was received some days since
from Contractors r. II. Richardson *
Son to the effect that through an error
in the plans OF Architect Smith. II
would be impossible to erect a stair
case. The board was confronted with
a perplexing proposition-a large new
court house without a stairway lead
ing up to the second floor.
1t seems that the architect miscai-
culated the height of the ceiling in
the new part. when it was so erec' ed
that the ground floor of the new build
ing was on the same level with the
floor Of the old building and the same
obtained as to the second floor, II
lessened the room for the stair Two
feet which was too low an elevation.
After consultation with the contrac-
tor Foreman Vernon Daugherty ana
Architect c. r. Holtzclaw il was decid-
ed tn draw up plans for an annex 20
occupy the centre OF the portico 10
which the staircase can be run. This.
I, is thought will be a good solution 10
the problem, provide good stairway
and will not de;ract from the appear
ance of the building to Gny great de-
gree
