TO NAVIGATE SALMON RIvEH
Deer Creek Miners Determine to Try
Experiment

Asotin. Wash.-Owners of mines in
the vicinity of Deer Creek, on salmon
river a short distance from the mouth
who have developed a number of high
grade properties, realizing that even
though construction work on the
Gilmore & Pittsburg railway should
begin this summer, it will be at least
two years before they will have tram
sportation for the output of their
mines. have entered into negotiations
with Glover & Mcfarland, owners of
the gasoline launch Flyer. to put the
boat in commission between Deer
Creek and Lewiston, and the initial
trip will be made about June 6. The
launch is now on the way here, be-
ing equipped with a 60-horsepower
engine, and it is believed that enough
power can be developed for the pack
ct to successfully negotiate the rap
ids in the Snake river as far as Pitts
burg Landing, about 60 miles above
Asotin. II this can be accomplished
there is no doubt but navigation can
be accomplished several miles up the
Salmon.
If the Flyer succeeds in going up
Salmon river 1t will be the first power
boat ever to enter the stream. and a
new era will be. inaugurated for
rich mineral belt along the Salmon
below Deer Creek, where there are
number of promising claims lying
dormant because of the inability of
the owners to get machinery in and
the ore out
On the initial run the boat will be in
command of an experienced pilot,
and an expert gasoline engine man
from the factory which supplied the
motor will have charge of the en-
gines Besides the owners the party
will include several newspaper men,
invitations having been extended to
the representatives of The Spokesman
Review and Lewiston papers to ac-
company the expedition. 1t is an
ticipated that the round trip can be
made in three days.

'The Pages Devotion, Urban.
This drastic picture of courtly life is
placed in a very beautiful old cha
teau. The baroness has a lover, and
when the old baron finds this out her
page takes the lovers place thus per-
mitting them to escape. The story
is wisely conducted to bring out its
dramatic positions and it is beauti-
fully acted making a very desirable
film.
"a Buffalo Hunt" This is a good
picture Of the methods adopted to
secure the buffalos. The wild buff
falo Is a dangerous antagonist and
makes his strength felt upon all oc-
casions when necessary for self pro-
lection.
"a Soldier" Pathe. Tells in a
graphic way how a soldier goes to see
his sick mother, even though leave
of absence is refused. The highest
type of silent emotional drama.

INTER-OCEAN CHARGES
TRIBUNE WITH GRAFT

Tribune With GKAFI
When Chicago newspapers fall
out, honest people begin to find
out the truth
The Inter-Ocean this morning
carries a story about decision
by Judge Clark, of the appellate
court, disclosing the enormous
amount of money stolen from the
school children of Chicago by the
midnight lease" of the six lots
on which the Chicago Tribune
building now stands.
The Inter-Ocean says that by
means of this lease the Tribune,
prior to 1905, took from the
school children of Chicago about
$208,000, and in the present de-
eade- is taking 500, 440 !. more;
and that before the. midnight
lease" expires the Tribune will
have taken from the school
funds an additional $5;366,740.
: The lease doesn't expire until
1894, by which time the total
loss to the school fund is esti-
mated by the Inte#-Ocean at S.
7e5,180
The six lots on which the
Tribune building stands are
leased from the board of educa-
ton. The lease was made to the
Tribune at a midnight session in
1895, and was fore100 years. The
lease was so worded that no
revaluation can be made after
1915.
1t seems that an attack was
made on the lease under Mayor
DUNES administration. The

A SUSPENSION OF ARBITRARY
RATES.

The Chamber of Commerce, through
its able and efficient representative,
George T. Atkins, traffic manager, has
scored decided and most important
point in having secured a suspension of
the arbitrary rates advertised from St.
Louis to Shreveport on group of sew
enteen commodities of general CONNER
cial use.
The arbitrary rates were issued by the
Southwestern Tariff Committee on jan
uary rs, and would affect materially the
traffic of the territory of which Shreve-
port is the central point.
The petition of the Chamber of Com
merce was submitted to the Interstate
Commerce Commission at Washington
ID. C., on whose decree there has been
ordered suspension CT these arbitrary
rates until June 10, during which time
the Chamber of Commerce of Shreve-
port will be given the opportunity Of
presenting its case.

SNOW AND SLEET
Billiards in Texas-Freezing Tempera-

A large section of the United States
is in "the grasp of the snow king" The
snowfall extends from New York to
Tennessee and Kentucky as far south

There have been two days of blizzard
in Northwest Texas. Missouri has had
its full share of snow and sleet.
Dallas, Tex, Feb. 2o.-Reports from
the Panhandle of Texas today state that
all trains were either stalled or were
many hours late fro mthe effects of a
two days blizzard in that section. To-
day the storm was moderating, with the
temperature in the Panhandle at 20 de-
grees above zero.
Throughout northern Texas, where
peach and apple trees are in blossom,
and vegetation of all sorts had been
green for two weeks, the temperature
touched freezing today and ice formed
in exposed places. For over "a hours a
norther has been driving the tempera-
ture down with little prospect that the
drop will abate for another day.

TWO ELECTIONS
The Traction Company and the Issue of
Bonds for Paving

There are to be two elections instead
of one, as first scheduled-one, for the
Traction Company franchise extension,
will be held on Thursday, March 20.
On April q for the consideration of the
issue of bonds for street paving
This conclusion was reached by the
Council after full and free discussion.
1t was contended that each question
should be voted on at different dates so
as to avoid any antagonism which may
exist against either proposition.
At the session of the Council yester-
day there was an unusual attendance of
citizens. At some sessions of the Coun-
Gil the audience has frequently been
limited to one or two men, lockers on"
having little interest in the city and its
affairs
The Council was adjourned to Feb
ruary 28.
