W. F. Page, of Republic, Ferry coun-
ty, has been engaged as a temporary
assistant at the Pend Oreille county
courthouse, and with Mrs. Page arrived
in Newport Sunday. Mr.. Page was
four years deputy auditor of Ferry and
served as auditor four years. During
the past few months he has been en-
gagged in assisting Auditor Jesseph, of
Stevens county, in verifying the tran
scribed records of this county. Mr..
Page will assist in the treasurer's and
assessors office during the rush of work
that will swamp these offices in connec-
tion with the computing and collection
of taxes, and his past experience in
county matters will be of great assist
ance. In connection with their new
duties the Pend Oreille county officers
are encountering many difficult prob
lens, and their case is different from
that of older counties, where it seldom
occurs that there are not some expert
enced men in the offices. Starting out
county puts all the officials up against
hard game.

BAD BUNCH ROUNDED UP
Sentenced to Terms in Standpoint
Jail.
Good Radiance for Community.

The local officers of Idaho and Wash
lngton have made cleanup of gang
OF tough characters, who have been in
tectlng the two towns for some months.
and by putting them behind the bars of
the Bonner county Jail have done good
service to the community.
Recently number of petty depreda-
tions have been committed on both sides
of the line, and while all have not been
traced to the men jailed this week, it is
thought that they were guilty of par
tlclpating in all or most of them, and it
is likely that there Will be less of that
type of crime committed while they are
behind the bars.
Last Friday night the home of E. w.
Stevens, on the Idaho side, was entered
and $50 quarts of canned fruit and three
sacks of potatoes were taken. Some of
the canned fruit was peddled around
town by man named Frank Miller,
who claimed to be a rancher with a
surplus supply of the fruit and anxious
to dispose of same. Only part of the
stolen fruit has been accounted for, ten
quarts having been found by the officers
in Great Northern box car, and it is
believed that the remainder is cached
somewhere about town. Miller was
arrested and confessed to having been
party to the theft and that his part
ner had left town. Justice Vane bound
him over to the Bonner county court.
Tim Murphy, who has been hanger
on and roustabout hereabouts for nearly
two years, was hauled before Justice
Vane on the charge of vagrancy and
given six months in jail. At the con-
clusion of his vagrancy sentence he will
have to answer to the charge of bur-
glary on the Washington side if some
additional evidence can be secured, as
he is believed to have been the party
who broke into the Frank Stewart home
on Union avenue and purloined about
$50 worth of carpenters tools.

out visible means of support, who has
been roosting in Old Town, was given

MUNICIPAL TICKET NOMINATED
Citizens Ticket Placed in Field
Tuesday Evening.
Election Tuesday, December 9th.

A caucus for the nomination of candl-
dates for town offices was held at the
Town Hall Tuesday evening, pursuant
to posted call.
E. S. Appel was called to the chair to
preside over the caucus, and A. nj.
Harris was selected to serve as secre-
tary.
The following ticket was placed in
nomination by reclamation:
For Mayor George T. Heslin.
For George Torreson and
A. M. Harris.
For Town Treasurer-Chas. F. Bell.
On motion the ticket was named
''Citizens," and there being no further
business to come before the caucus the
meeting adjourned.
Although the caucus was not very
largely attended, it's action seems to
meet the approval of the people, as
none but favorable comment has been
rendered. 1t is evident that there will
be no opposing ticket, and Newport will
this year escape the dissension resultant
upon fight over municipal matters
where there is no real issue involved.
Treasurer Bell and Councilman Tor
reson have been renominated, and their
official careers have been such as to
meet the approval of the people. DR..
Lusher refusing to accept renomina-
tion, A. M Harris was named. New
port has no better booster than Mr..
Harris, and he is always willing to do
his share of any work for the improve
ment of the community.
George T. Heslin, candidate for
mayor, has been resident of the town
the past two years and is the senior
member of the firm of Heslin, Fox &
Co. Mr.. Heslin is a successful business
man and progressive citizen, and will
bring to the service of the town years
of experience in similar capacity at
his former home in Wisconsin.
The election takes place Tuesday,
Dec 5, and the polls will be open at
the City Hall from a. m. to 8 p. m.

Smuggling Suspected

Federal officers have for some time
held the suspicion that the northern
part OF Pend Oreille county was being
used as a gateway for the smuggling of
opium and Cinnamon across the line
from British Columbia. Up to this
time no evidence to convict any parties
has been secured, but it is known to be
TACT that an unusual number of China
mon have been seen about Metaline
Falls the past summer, and also along
the trail leading from the International
Boundary.
Conditions in that section are ideal
for smuggling and bringing forbidden
emlgrants across the line, as the coun-
try on both sides of the line is practic-
ally uninhabited for number of miles,
and easy access to a railroad can be had
at Metaline Falls.
The Spokane Press recently had a
special writer in that territory investi-
eating the rumors.

WOULD TEACH GREAT SAVING
Idaho Professor Interests Lumber,
men and Land Owners.
Values Now Lost in the Woods

The following from the Pend Oreille
Review. of Standpoint, is of interest
throughout the Northwest:
Prof, Shattuck, at the head of the
forestry department of the University
of Idaho, paid visit to Standpoint and
Bonners Ferry the first of the week in
the interests of his department of the
state institution.
The plans for the housing Of the for
estry department in building of its
own at Moscow are being pushed by
Prof. Shattuck with every evidence of
success. The timber companies of the
state have been enlisted in the cause and
the matter of making an assessment of
the timber company's holdings in the
state of Idaho to pay for the construc-
tion of the forestry building has been
taken up by the Northern Idaho For
estry Association and by the Pend
Oreille Association. While offers have
been made by Individual companies
which would result in good start be-
ing made on the collection of funds for
the purpose, there has been such a gen
eral feeling of favor toward the propo-
sition manifested by the lumber COM
panies that it is now being planned to
have all the companies pro rata the
amount they will give by the acreage
they hold in the state. 1t is figured
that cents an acre would result in the
collection of $50, 900 for the construction
of the building wanted.
Prof. Shattuck paid visit Monday to
the Bonners Ferry Lumber Co., and at
Newport on Saturday interviewed the
Dalkena Lumber Co. and the Fidelity
Lumber Co. All three companies,
through their managers, were highly in
favor of the proposition. The assist
ance of T. J. Humbird, of the Humbird
Lumber Co., has already been enlisted
by Prof. Shattuck.
'"The plan of the department would
be to construct building which would
not only make it possible to teach all
branches of forestry, but give practical
demonstrations in the running of mills
and in saving the by-products from the

70 days in Jail as a vagrant by Justice

70 days in Jail as a vagrant by Justice
Vane.
Another depreciation supposed tohave
been committed by this gang was the
breaking into the home of Jas. Agee on
the Idaho side. Mr.. Agee has been
meeting with great misfortune of late,
his wife having died about a month
since and he himself has been in poor
health. He left home few days ago
to place his motherless children with
relatives, and during his absence the
home was entered and practically di-
vested of its meager furnishings. A
bureau was carried out into the street
and the bureau drawers and their con-
tents taken away. Mr.. Vane requests
that if any of the drawers and contents
be discovered by any of our citizens
that he be notified that the property
may be returned to it's owner.
Sheriff Kearns and a deputy from
Standpoint came after the prisoners
Tuesday evening, and took them to the
Jail.
Justice Vane and Constable Cleland,
of the Idaho side, are to be commended
for their work in ridding the town of
this gang, and the Washington officers
are also entitled to credit for their work
in the case.

timber" said Prof. Shattuck to the
Standpoint Review. cit is perhaps not
fully realized that but 40 per cent of
the wood of our country is being saved
under the present system which saves
the lumber only from our forests. These
by-products can be saved and one of the
objects of the school is to have ade-
quate facilities for demonstration with
the different woods, and the reduction
to practical use of the by-products of
all the different classes of timber grown
in the state. If this department alone
shall be successful in acquiring by ex-
pertinent the methods by which these
by-products may be saved it means
dollar for dollar in additional profit for
the lumber mills of Idaho, which today
are but just keeping afoat with the
present market for finished lumber. 1t
would mean doubling of the value of
our woods, and would also mean great
impetus to the clearing of the country
with the practical use Of the stumps
for the purposes of extracting the pro-
ducts of charcoal, creosote, turpentine
and other oils which they are known to
contain.
A practical demonstration of what
can be done with the woods indigenous
to Idaho was presented by Prof. Shat
tuck, who by recent experiments made
in his department at the university re-
duced from small piece of red fir
enough by-products in the way of tur
pentine, balsam and oil products to
establish the fact that red fir, yellow
pine and tamarack are easily reducti-
BILE. These oils were arranged in walls
in a case, and wherever they were
shown they added great interest to
the work that Prof. Shattuck is doing,
that Of endeavoring to have the state of
Idaho take hold of the real problem that
confronts it, that of conserving it's tim
Der products and the resultant clearing
of it's lands without the present great
ost.
1t is reported that as result of
Kootenai county going wet the Bonner
county liquor people are planning to
hold an election at the first opportunity,
which will be next spring. The town
of Rathdrum, Kootenai county, which
has dry council, will try to get along
without the saloon, as the council will
refuse to grant a license. Coeur d.
Alene has Socialist mayor, and he has
sprung a proposition to run municipal
saloon, instead Of granting licenses.

A young couple from Blanchard ap-
peared at the courthouse Saturday after
noon, asking for marriage license and
had the preacher on hand ready to per-
form the ceremony. When Auditor
Murray began to ask the necessary
questions relative to age of contracting
parties, etc., it developed that the bride
was but II years old, and the formality
of securing the consent of her parents
to the marriage had been neglected. 1t
became the auditors painful duty to
turn them away without the happiness
credentials, and it was a disappointed
pair that went back home on the after
noon train.

Placing Tracts on the Market

During the past few months the New
port Washington Land Co. has surveyed
48O acres Of their land south of town
and placed it on the market in 1O-acre
tracts. A number of these tracts have
been sold and families are moving onto
them. The latest purchaser was A.
Desnoyer, of Bellingham, Wash, who
purchased 10 acres Saturday and has
gone back to the coast city to get his
family.
1.-The land being marketed is located
two and one-half miles south of town,
and the new purchasers are all men
who have bought for the purpose of
making homes, and will be valuable
aid in upbuilding the community.

EARLY Combines and Corners

'SEngrossing" was an ohense PUNISH
able in England by fine and imprison'
ment. and the laws against il struck at
those-called "engrossers" who plan
ned 10 gain control over necessities,
such as grain or foodstulfs in copsld-
cradle quantities, either by purchase or
otherwise, with the intention of raising
prices. The statute book holds quite
series Of enactments designed to pre-
vent anything in the nature of what
we know as corner" or combine"
'.Regrating" was criminal ohense,
and so was "forestalling. The former
consisted OF buying and selling the
same day in the same market or near
il. and the latter implied the purchase
OF merchandise on the way to market
or before the hour 1T which The market
commenced with the intention or sell
ing ut profit, while it WAS also fore
Sailing" TO circulate rumors calculated
to raise the prices of commodities.
Though these laws have fallen into
desuetude. they were in force in our
crandfathers' time.-L0udon Mail.
