There is no discounting the fact that
woman suffrage has made great gain
IN the victory achieved in California at
the recent election. Naturally one
looks to the western states for expert
ments in legislation, economics and So
cial relations because they are less in
fiuenced by those old established Gus
toms that affect the eastern states. But
the people of the west are just as quick
IN throwing over experiments if they
do not prove satisfactory as they are in
making them. Therefore as equal suf-
frage has prevailed in five of the west
ern and mountain states for some time
the result in California can only mean
that the majority in that state is salts
ned that woman suffrage has proved
successful where tried. 1t goes with
out saying that the cause of woman
suffrage has received decided impetus.

10 Start Settlement With Stevens

County Auditor H. H. Murray will
Leave Saturday for Colyille, where he
and Auditor L. E. Jesseph, of Stevens
county, will start the work of arriving at
financial settlement between the two
counties. They will be assisted in the
work by Frank M. Spain, of Yakima
county, who is an ex-auditor of that
county, and who has been recon mended
by the State Bureau of Inspection OF
Ohces as competent man to work on
the settlement. The two counties will
share equally the cost of Mr.. Spain's
services.
Auditor Jesseph has been preparing
his books for this settlement, and it is
anticipated that it will not take over a
week to do the work, unless some points
arise on which agreement cannot be
reached.
On the conclusion of the settlement
bY the auditors the Boards of Com mis-
sioners of the two counties will meet to
approve the settlement, and make such
stipnlations and agreements as may be
necessary.
In the matter of the bonded indebted
ness of Stevens county, of which Pend
Oreille county will have to assume it's
proportionate share, it is likely that the
bonds will stand in the name of Stevens
county as before, and that Pend Oreille
county will enter into an agreement to
pay it's share of the principal ane inter.
est of the bonds as they become due.
The county commissioners have en-.
tered into contract with F. E. Lehm-
knhl to furnish the fixtures for the court
room, the contract including the plat
forms, railings, desks, ETC., for the sum
OF 1926. All 10 be constructed of curly

Novel Ball Game on Sunday

For next Sunday there is lined up a
ball game between the Fats and Leans.
The amateur games of the past two
weeks have been open to the criticism
that there were too many ball players in
the game, the crowd evidently wanting
to see what some of the old-timers who
are not in practice could do. A. R, Tiss
is managing the affairs of the Leans and
announces his lineup for next Sunday
will be as follows;
Ben Fox, Shiplev, Ray Fox, Elmer
Jones. Shreve, Tiss, Wilcox, Reid, DIR.
Nelson. Monroe.
For the Fats, Mayor Jones Is manager
and has the consent OF the following
heavyweight lineup to appear:
Appieman, Talmadge, Jones, Wolf,
Sheldon. Marland. DR.. Phillips, DR..
Wallace, Ryan, Weeks. Luce.
The big balloon ascension and para
chute drop that were postponed last
Sunday on account of the rain, will be
pulled off during the game unless the
weather prevents.
The proceeds of the game 60 for the
benefit of the Commercial Club. Every
body ought to turn out and enjoy the
real fun that is sure to be dished up
when the Fats and Leans clash.

COUNTY VALUATION GROWING
Increase of Half Million Since
1910 Assessment.
Showing Justi6es County Division

County Assessor James Algie. of Stew
ems county, has completed the footing of
the assessment rolls of Stevens and Pend
Oreille counties, showing a total valua-
ton of all town lots and acreage as fol-
lows: Stevens county, S.. .457 .452: Pend
Oreille county, 1928 .468. This does
not include railways, telegraph and tele-
phone lines, which will be assessed by
the state tax commission. The total
real estate values of Stevens county for
1910. exclusive of railways, was Sc, ,862,-
634; railway valuations, $1.7O2 ,0l9, and
personal property, 81, ,7O6, ,238.
The totals on the personal property
rolls for the new county have been footed
up by our own assessor, E. D. Purchase,
and are almost million dollars. The
Panhandle Lumber Co.'s plant at lone
is assessed at 500, 900; the Portland Ce-
ment plant at Metaline Falls is assessed
at $3.50, O,66912. The total assessed valu-
alton OF mercantile stocks In the new
county is $163,5l5.
From these figures the wisdom of the
division from Stevens county at this
time is still more apparent. 1t will be
noticed that Pend Oreille county, with
but one-third the area, and with much
larger proportion of unsurveyed lands
within the Forest Service. had its lands
assessed at nearly one-half what those
of Stevens county were assessed. The
personal property valuation of the new
county for 1911 is more than two-thirds
what the personal property valuation of
the whole of Stevens county was in 1910.
When the Board of Equalization will
have completed its work and the railway
valuation is returned by the state board,
the new county OF Pend Oreille will show
an assessable valuation of more than
$4,000, 900. There appears to be no rea-
son why taxes should be increased, and
within a few years there should be a
substantial decrease as our valuation
continues to grow.
The total value of the territory now
comprising Pend Oreille county, ac-
cording to the assessment of 1910. was
$3,573, 1853. The assessment of 1911

KNOCKING WITHOUT REASON
False Statements Printed About
Calispell Valley.
Spokane Paper Invites Censure

The Spokesman Review of Saturday
published the following interview:
"While it has been predicted that the
dykes along the Pend Oreille, at the
mouth of the Calispel. would make the
land grow all varieties Of products, the
last season has proven to the contrary,
and even the hay crop is poor as COM
pared to years when the river over
flowed" said Capt. John McA. Webster.
local Indian agent.
1.-THE land was controlled in part by
the Indians, and it was thought they
would have larger ranches and grow all
kinds OF crops," continued Mr.. Webster.
1T will be necessary to irrigate the land
or permit the waters to overflow, which
insures at least good hay crop. The
crop is very poor this year."
The injustice of the interview. and the
falsehood of the statements contained
therein, called forth the following reply,
which was published in the Spokesman
Review of Monday:
To the Editor of the Spokesman-Re
view: People of this section are indig-
nant over the statement of Capt. John
McA. Webster, Indian agent, published
in the Spokesman-Re Review this morniug,
to the effect that crops are failure on
the lands of the Calispel valley, which
during the last two years have been
diked against overflow by the Pend
Oreille.
Instead of crops being poor the reverse
is true. One of the we'll known ranch
ers, Joshua Beeman, of Cusick, reports
having cut 53 loads of alsike and timothy
from 13 acres of ground protected by the
dixie, the loads averaging little better
than ton. Through the length of the
valley there is not single instance of
failure of hay or grain crops. Fall wheat
will thresh out 35 to 40 bushels per acre
is the prediction of the ranchers, while
a number OF them are betting on pro-
duction of 100 bushels of oats to the acre.
The only shortage of crop is the wild
grass, which failed to receive its annual
overflow. Not all of the valley lands
were placed under plow this year, and

Arcadia Company After More Water

The Arcadia Orchards Co., OF Deer
Park, which recently filed on the waters
of Sacheen and Horseshoe lakes and
Small and Winchester creeks. all located
in Pend Oreille county, has during the
past week filed the following additional
water rights within this county:
Waters of Little Calispel river in se1-4
se1-4, 19-32.43.
Waters of Tacoma creek in nwl-4
ne1-4, 21-34-43.
Waters in north fork of Calispel river
in nw14 of se14. 13-32-42.
The purpose of the company in filing
on the waters of creeks on the east slope
of the mountains and running into the
Pend Oreille river and it's tributaries, is
hardly understood in this section. The
company claime the intention of taking
the water to irrigate their big project in
the Deer Park country, but it hardly
seems feasible to convey the water across
the mountains to that section.
1t is more likely that the Arcadia
company has in view similar big or
chard proposition in this new county,
particularly in the foothill country sur
rounding the Calispel valley. Certain
it is that no better soil or climatic con-
ditions can be found in the Northwest
than exist in the country tributary to
their recent water right locations.

BREAKS CAMP
NORTH DAKOTA RIFLE TEAM
LEAVES FOR CAMP PERRY, o.
Has Made Remarkable Progress and
May Be Numbered Among the Prize
Winners,
Especial to tha TrIbune)

CAMP DOUGLAS, Wis, Aug. o.
TIE North Dakota rifle team, which
has been practicing on the Wisconsin
state range here for the past week,
broke camp Monday night and de-
parted for Camp Perry, O., where 1t
will participate in the National
matches. The team made remark
able progress while here and if it can
hold up to it's average will undoubted-
ly be numbered among the prize win
ners in it's class.
The original plan had been to have
the team leave Camp Douglas, Satur-
day night, spending Sunday in Chi
cago and reaching Camp Perry, Mon
day morning. However, it was learned
that the team would have to remain
idle Monday and Tuesday so there
was a hurried change in the arrange
ments, the team remaining here Sun
day and Monday for more practice.
Adjutant General W. G. Treumann
of North Dakota arrived in camp Fri
day afternoon. He is team captain.
Capt. E. C. Geary, Jr., of Fargo is team
coach and has been busy man during
the past week Lieut.. A. M. Holt of
Devils Lake, the team spotter, has
also had his hands full. Lieut.. D. S.
Richie of Valley City, the range Off
Ger, has been on duty at the range at
Camp Perry for the past week, having
been ordered there ahead of the team.
Sunday the team shot over the Ma
tional course twice, once in the morn
ing and once in the afternoon. The
aggregate score in the morning was
2,917, and in the afternoon 1885. In
the National match at Camp Perry
last year the North Dakota team ag-
gregate was 2,S07, and the team won
fourth place in Glass C. The i'm
provement this year Is very noticeable
lions and the ability of the team men,
bers to hold up to their averages for
this years team to be winner.
There has been but little change
in the team personnel. Sergeant John
son of Williston was placed on the
team instead OF Sergeant Bloom of
Mandan, who is now an alternate.
The team will reach Camp Perry
Tuesday afternoon and will devote the
day to getting settled in their quar-.
tiers. Wednesday and Thursday every
member of the team will be entered
In the National individual match,
which is the same course as the big
contest. This will be excellent prac-
tice. Friday and aSturday will be de-
voted to preliminary practice. Sunday
will be a day of rest. The National
team match will be shot Monday.
Tuesday and Wednesday. The team
will disband Wednesday, the members
arriving at their home stations Fri
day evening or Saturday morning.
