Wife Murderer Escapes Death Penalty

After having beaten his wife's head to
pulp with the butt of a rifle in the
presence of three little children, and
then chucked her body through trap
door into the cellar, Joe Vigue, a ranch.
er, who has been on trial at Standpoint
for the last week, was Saturday morn
ing found guilty of murder in the second
degree. His defense was insanity. rela-
tives being forced to testify to peculiar
actions before the murder.
Bonner county juries have been dis
pensing queer lot OF justice of late.

was let off scott free, although there were
a number of witnesses to his deed.
There has been some talk OF lynch Law
in Bonner, and it is likelv that in case
there are any more atrocious murders
the authorities may have trouble in
protecting their prisoners.

had no more than gotten the list in his
hands than he was about to tear several
pages of the names out. Auditor We'll
caught him in the act just in time to
save the list. after which the party re-
ceived severe reprimand.
Various opinions are expressed among
the vets as to the legality of the peti.
ton provided it can be proven that
some of the names attached have been
fradulently obtained. Some contend
that it makes the entire petition void.
while others argue that it simply nulifies
the particular name.
A rumor is current that the petition
which was circulated at Welty was mis-
represented to many of the signere, it
being contended that the party circulat-
ing the same told many of the women
in the neighborhood that the list was
simply registration list, it being neces-
sary that it be signed before the party
could vote. 1t is asserted that one
woman is willing to make affidavit to
the effect that such was the manner in
which her name was secured to the list
as she is opposed to local option. In
the meantime the drys are paying little
attention 10 the rumors, they asserting
that there is no possible chance to knock
the petition out and that the county
commissioners are obliged to fix date
for the special election and to give the
residents of the county an opportunity
to vote on the question.
Before the petitions could be knocked
out in Bonner county it would be neces-
sary that something oyer 235 names be
found to be illegal, as the dries have that
majority over the necessary 40 per cent.

WILL NOT GRANT PETITION
The Liquor interests Have Appar
emily Won.
No Election Until February 1911.

Reports received by the MINER from
Standpoint today are to the effect that
the petition asking the county commits
sioners to call an election to vote on the
question of local option is likely to be
sidetracked by the commissioners. The
liquor interests have had men checking
over the petition and they assert tnat
they have found sufficient number of
names on the petition by illegal signers
to knock it out. If the wet interests
gain their point it will be impossible.
under the Idaho law, to hold an election
on the question until February, 1911.
The following is from the Northern
Idaho News:
The matter of considering the local
option petition which was filed some
time over week ago with County
Auditor We'll and which was presented
to the, county commissioners at their
meeting Monday morning at the court
house was formally discussed at the ses-
sion Tuesday morning, the petition hav-
ing been taken up and tabled until that
date. In the meantime representatives
OF the wet forces are losing no time to
do all in their power to knock the peti-
tions out. and will use every influence
possible to bear on the commissioners to
attain such end
A careful persual of the names OF the
petitioners discloses the fact that many
of them are not properly signed, simply
the surname being written. no initials
being giving whatever. Then, too, the
vets contend that many of the signers
to the long list are notlegal voters, some
of them being under age, while Others,
according to the claims of the saloon
forces are not residents of the United
States

was the scene of many red hot argu-
ments by supporters OF both sides, one

Ranch Home Destroyed

Last Thursday afternoon the ranch
home OF Frank s. Maxwell. located east
of Lenora. was totally destroyed by fire,
together with all it's contents. The fire
started in the attic and when discovered
was so far advanced that nothing could
be done to stop it, and the family was
barely able to escape from the building.

lost what household effects they had
with them, and Mr.. Frizzell lost $50 in
money, $50 of which was in coin and was
later raked from the ashes The friends
of Mr.. Maxwell and family regret the
misfortune that has befallen them.

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Change in Administration Oc-
Cured Tuesday.
Appointments to be Made Later.

The city council met in adjourned
~e.s.ion on Tuesday night, il being the
last meeting Of the old council. tnun-
c,Imen Hynes, Millard, l.utz and Ben
nett we're present. Mnvor Appel called
the meeting To order and, after lew
remarks, in which he thanked the old
council and the citizens at large for the
many iavors extended to him during the
past year, administered the oath Of office
to Mayor-elect Fox.
As the unfinished business had been
left for the new council to attend to, and
there being no new business motion to
adjourn sine die was made and carried.
Mayor Fox administered the oath Of
office to Councilmen Torreson and
Lusher and City Treasurer Phillips.
after which the new council was called
to order.
Mayor Fox was not ready to announce
his appointments for the ensuing year,
30 the matter was left over to the regu-
lar meet,ng. The question as to the
bonds of the clerk aud treasurer. which
had expired, was brought up, but it was
decided to let that be settled at the next
meeting, when the appointments would
be made.
The council then adjourned.
The retiring administration has been
an excellent one in many ways. The
appearance OF the city has been greatly
improved during the past year bv a large
amount OF grading; new sidewalks have
been constructed in many portions of
town and better protection from fire OBJ
tanned. The street lighting contract
WAS renewed under favorable circum-
stances and the city is better lighted
than ever
The council has worked together in q
harmonious manner and. as Mayor
Appel stated. the vote on most questions
was unanimous. -
The new council will have several
difficult questions to handle during the
coming year. Not the least difficult will
be the financial question, rs the revenues
of the city will be appreciably curtailed
on account of the lack of the license

WORK ON THE POWER PLANT
Big Project at Metaline to be
Finished in June
200 Men Working at Present

F. C. Fiske, engineer in charge OF ne
construction of the power plant ior the
Inland Portland Cement Co., on Suil
van creek, was in Newport on Tuesday
in consultation with Forest Supervisor
w. n. Millar.
The company recently purchased from
the Forest Service the timber on the
la nd to be submerged by the construc-
ton of the dam at the mouth OF sullivan
lake. The work OF getting on TINS UNI
ber. clearing the land of brush and re-
constructing the government trail around
the lake, which will also be submerged,
will be started at once.
At present about 200 men are en-
ploved on the work There is in pro-
gress at the present time work on the
dams and the building of the fumes. At
one point about 1900 feet OF tunnel is
being driven to carry the water and at
another rock cut 90 feet deep is neces-
sary.
Inc TWO QdtlS are ALSO C''S'i'S
ton. The one on Sullivan creek will be
60 feet high and lao feet wide at the
crest. The dam at the mouth Of the
lake will be built 25 feet high at present
and 40 feet wide. Both dams will be Of
timber. Later the dam at the mouth of
the lake will be replaced by concrete
dam, of the "bear trap" type, to permit
the taking of water ont Of the lake at all
stages. Both dams will also have log
chutes and fish ladders.
1t is expected to have the power plant
in operation by the middle of next sum
mer. A high tension transmission line
will be built to convey power to the saw
mill and town Of lone.
During the past year the company has
patented several OF it's placer claims and
others are now being patented.
1t is understood that party of capi-
talists from Coeur d'Alene have pur-
chased several claims in the vicinity of
Metaline. and will begin the develop
ment work there early in the spring
The claims are said to be in the prox
unity Of the extension OF the l. & w. N

No More Appropriations for Pend 0reiIIe

Gen. Marshall. chief of engineers, has
presented to congress report recon-
mending that the project of improving
the Pend Oreille river from Newport
north to open up the Metaline district,
be dropped, and that no further appro-
piiation be made for it, save survey,
which would cost about $500. In his re-
port he says:
"This section OF the river has been
under improvement bv the United States
eince 1899, bv the removal of submerged
rocks and blowing off OF projecting
rocky points in Box Canyon, the re-
moval of submerged rocks between New
port and Box Canyon"

Cedar Market Is Improving

The ce lar pole market is looking up
and indications are that there will be
more poles handled locally this year
than at any time since the panic. Sew
eral firms have announced their inten-
ton of buying poles down the river and
handling them at this point. The stocks
in the local yards are shorter than tor
years.
Prices on cedar products have i'm.
proved considerably, and it IL now pos
sible for the rancher to make poles at
profit Shingle bolts command good
price, and at present several firms are
making them and shipping to Spokane.
A shingle mill, or several of them, down
the valley would doubtless pay good re-
turns. as there would be considerable
saving in the cost OF manufacture in the
matter of handling charges. The mar
ket for shingles is limited to the Inland
Empire. country. as the coast -shingle
trust would throttle any competition in
the eastern territory.
A report in the Spokane paper, says
that the freight rate on cedar poles from
this territory has been reduced cents
per 100 pounds. Inquiry at the Great
Northern depot fails to substantiate the
statement, but the change may not have
been; forwarded to the local office vet.
In case this is true it means that the
rancher should receive the benefit of the
40 cents on 4O-foot pole, or practically
cent foot on each pole made As
this is about the amount paid for max
producer.

AT il special meeting Of the town coun-
Gil last Thursday evening the assessment
rolls for the street grading work done
last year were presented to the council
by Town Clerk Britton. An opportun-
lily was extended to abutting property
owners to offer anv objections they
might have to the adoption of the rolls.
But one objection was made, which was
soon adjusted The conncil will now
adopt the rolls by ordinance and the
clerk will proceed to collect same.
AS shown by the rolls the towns pro-
portion of the cost. which includes all
street intersections, is as follows on the
various streets:

To this should be added the cost of
constructing crosswalks. for which a
contract amounting to about $3.50 has
already been let, and there will doubt
less be other walks ordered in the spring.

money usually obtained from the sa-
looms. The ordinary expenses OF the city
will probably be greater than dnring the
past wears, and some method will have
to be adopted to keep things going.

GRAY HAIRS BANISHED.

The old idea of using sage for darken-
ing the hair Is again coming In vogue.
Our grandmothers used to have dark,
glossy hair at the age Of seventy-hve,
while our mothers have white hair before
they are fifty. Our grandmothers used
to make sage tea" aud apply it to
their hair. The tea made their hair soft
and glossy and gradually restored the
natural color One objection TO using
such a preparation was the trouble OF
making It, especially rs it had 10 be
made every two or three days on account
Of it sourlug quickly. This objection has
been overcome and by asking almost
any frst-class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur the public can get a SUI
perior preparation Of sage, with the adj
mixture Of sulphur, another valuable REM
edy for hair and scalp troubles. Daily
use OF this preparation will not only
quickly restore the color Of the hair but
will also stop the hair from falling out
and make it grow. II Is sold by all
