CAN BE CARRIED TOO FAR
Relaxed Muscles, INDUCED In to the
Extreme, Detrimental to tho
Health.

We read much of the benefit Of re-
Taxing, which is true as far as con.
Germs the nerves and temper; there
is another kind of relaxing, that Of
muscles. that is dangerous If made u
life habit
II is all right not TO keep oneself
tense; to let everything go occasion
ally and Just flop The trouble lies in
making this Topping permanent.
If girl or boy gets into the habit
of dropping his shoulders, lolling,
sprawling over table, crouching over
books or game do you know what
happens? The ligaments are weak
ened, the muscles lose tone. some
times, even the bones grow distorted
If the habit is acquired while young
bones are still soft.
Il is not pleasant to be continually
tagging at children, stand up!" keep
your elbows off the table," hold your
shoulders up" and keep up the good
work though II means daily rows.
Such things are more than a ques-
lion of good manners; they mean good
health. II is a big temptation TO let
things go, but remember that crooked
backs, cramped lungs, distorted hips
and shoulders, badly poised necks, all
the organs of our body out of place,
follow muscles that are not kept
stretched to their natural position.

The starIInq's Tonoue.

All starlings have a very peculiar
formation at the extremity of the
tongue, which gives the appearance of
piece having been nipped out Of it.
This fact gave rise to the mistaken
idea that starling's tongue must be
cut before it can be taught to speak.

yet the work of development has only
begun, more lands will be reclaimed
from overflow and from the wilderness,
more manufacturing establishments will
be built to handle the products OF forests
and mines-in fact the Pend Oreille val
ley will in the next few years see a
greater and more rapid development
than even the startling changes of the
past two years.
The east side of Stevens county is des-
tined to become the seat of prosperous
community, for more varied line OF re-
sonrces can be found nowhere in simi-
lar stretch of country. Its conditions
are right for self-government, for the
standing alone that will help advance
development and command recognition
from the outside world better than when
tied to large unwieldy county whose
interests in the main are not common
with those of the Pend Oreille country.

surprising and worthy of attention. The
party cast one-seventh of the total num-
Der of votes.
The Republicans conducted clean
campaign in every particular, and it is
exceedingly gratifying to the party to
note the success that has come to it in
Stevens county. The new year will find
but one Democrat in county Office, A.. D.
Foster, who defeated Louis ). Bowler.
The success of the Republican cam
paign can be attributed largely to the
generalship of Charles Adams, at pres
ent county treasurer and chairman of
the Republican committee. Mr.. Adams
is one of the most popular and best
known men in the county, his knowledge
of local political affairs and alliances is
perhaps unequalled, and with combin-
alton of rare tact and ability he lead the
party forces to the cleanest sweep in

DEBATE RESULTED. IN A TIE
High Schools Presented An Inter.
esting Contest.
Judges Failed to Reach Verdict.

The first high school debate ever held
in Newport occurred at Kelly's hall Fri
day evening. A large crowd was in at
tendance, showing the interest taken by
our citizens in the local schools.
The opposing high schools were New
port and Colville. The question for de-
bate was, Resolved, That an income
tax should be part OF a federal system of
taxation, provided that the question of
the constitutionality of the tax shall not
be raised" Colville's team consisted of
Karl Sax. Clark Campbell and Lewis
Penney. Members of the Newport team
were William McKie Florence Kilpat-
rick and Milton Moeser.
This was the first experience of the
local high school In participating in an
interscholastic debate. and under the
circumstances the showing made by the
local contestants entities them to great
credit. While members of the Colville
team had not previously participated in
NOO1SOoy CAOIO Woo OIL uuH du~
vantage to them in the experience gained
by the school in previous debates. Fur
thermore, the Newport team had the
negative side of tbs subject, which is, of
course, the unpopular one and the one
on which the least data and argument
could be secured. However, the local
contestants had the subject we'll in hand,
the arguments of each working we'll into
the others.
The members of the Colville team
were we'll at home on the platform and
acquitted themselves very creditably.
Unfortunately one of the judges failed
to get here, having mistaken Northport
for Newport and taken the train for the
former town. The two judges, who were
present, Judge A. M. Crayen, of Spo-
kane, and Judge R. G. Egbers, of Couer
d'Alene. were unable to agree on de-
cision, and the debate was declared a
tie. Under the rules of the state asso-
ton, under which the debate was held,
it was not possible to choose a third
Judge and the debate had to proceed
with but the two.

DIVISION SENTIMENT GROWS
East Side Is Large Enough and
Strong Enough.
Development Progressing Rapidly.

Now that election is over and people
have time for the discussion of other
topics, the matter of the proposed divis-
ion of Stevens county, is again attract
considerable attention. On the west
side of the county it is generally under
stood that there will be movement for
cyunty division come up at the next
session of the legislature and there is al
so prevailing sentiment that conditions
are such that if the east side feels that
it wants division and asks for it that it
is entitled to it. At least that is the
manner IN which the sentiment is re-
ported.
On the east side of the county there
has been more or less county division
talk during the past few months.
Early this summer the lone CONNER
cial Club broached the subject and
adopted resolution favoring division
and appointing committee of the club
to cooperate with other commercial
clubs for the purpose of working for di-
vision.
The completion of the Idaho & Wash
ington Northern Railroad, and the &C.
companying rapid development of the
Pend Oreille valley has made county
division feasible and almost imperittye.
The present inaccessibility of the county
seat, the remoteness from the admins
tration of Justice and county government
are all large factors in creating the SEN
tment for the formation of new county.
During the past two years the devel-
opment of the country has gone ahead
by leaps and bounds, the railroad has
been built, the big sawmlll at lone
started up, the power of Sullivan creek
harnessed and work progressed on the
million dollar cement plant to the ex.
tent that the plant will be in operation
next year. These, coupled with the
diking of the valley lands, clearing oi
logged off lands and the many individ-
ual improvements and developments
that have come to pass. have made the
proposed new county rich enough to &c
ahead with its own government. AS

Newport's High School is credit to
the town in all It's branches. The school
is one of the best assets of the town, and
it is certain that the people of the town

past, be always liberal in their support
of the school.

Boosters to Meet at Metaline Falls

The Stevens County Federated Clubs
united in grand rally at the National
Apple Show at Spokane Tuesday. A
special train was run on the 8. F. & N.
line ind a number of east side boosters
met the train and joined in the parade
to the Apple Show. At the noon hour
the boosters were entertained at lunch
con by the Spokane Chambe of Com
meree. At this time Metaline Falls was
chosen for the next meeting of the Fed
Grafton, and on Dec. 20 the new town
will be prepared to entertain the boost
ers from both sides of the county. This
will be the first meeting on the east side
and it is anticipated that there will be a
large attendance.
The Federated Clubs is composed of
the Commercial Clubs of nearly every
town in Stevens county and is doing a
great work in making known the re-
sources OF the county. AS yet but little
connection with the work has been had
by this side, but with this meeting it is
expected that some of the enthusiasm
that fires the other side and is doing
such good work will be instilled into the
Commercial Clubs of this side. The
Federated Clubs assembled the Stevens
county exhibit at the Apple Show, which
is highly spoken OF and stands good
chance to carry off some of the prizes.
The exhi bit will also be shown at Chi
cago after the close of the Spokane show
