near Baker. The writer Is seeking
an elderly lady who is in need of a
home and who would like to go to
the ranch near Baker with a view of
becoming member of the family
References are given, due require
ments stated and the Judge is asked to
use his best efforts towards finding
such woman if there is such a
home-seeking person in this vicinity.
The writer explains there are no wo-
men in the Baker county poor farm.
The novelty of the request lies in the
fact that a charitable minded per-
son has invaded Umatilla county seek

full to have such request as the one

Puts End to Fires in Coeur d'AIene
Forests,

Wallace, Idaho.-Heavy rains fall
ing continuously for nearly seven
hours throughout the Coeur PAlene
forest put the finishing touches on a
rapidly improving fire situation and
practically eliminated the 1911 fire
danger in this section of north Idaho.
The total rainfall for the weeg just
past is more than two inches. For
estry officials today We're optimistic
in their view of the future and are
happy in the belief that serious fires
in the danger zone of last year are
not to be repeated.
At this time last year fires were
at their worst and were burning in
every section of the forest. The
ground was baked and the foliage dry
Today the conditions are practically
the reverse. The vegetation Is rank
and continues as green as in the early
spring.

\. =. STEALS MARCH
ON PASCO OWNERS
cline Track After Restraining
Orders Out.

Pasco, Wash.-The Northern Pa
cific railway stole a march on several
obstructionists, who endeavored to
restrain the railroad from building
the "incline track" to the docks
what will be Pasco's future warehouse
district The officials heard yesterday
that property owners along the right
of way through which the spur track
to the docks was to be built were
seeking injunctions Nineteen re-
straining orders were issued late last
night by United States Court Com
missioner Thomas j. Clarke, but ow-
ing to the lateness of the hour it was
impossible to serve the papers last
night. AS a result today being Sun
day. and it being illegal to attempt
to serve papers today, the officials got
crews together and at 3 O'Clock this
morning double crew was working
with might and main to complete the
track.
The track in dispute is much need
ed, both for the railroad and for
property owners. Those trying TO
stop the construction of the track
dispute the railroads title to certain
parts of the land the right OF way
runs through. One restraining or
der. issued at the request of G. w.
Kays and wife, was served on the
railroad company Saturday, and it is
through the Kays property that the
rails are rot being laid, this being the
only link necessary to give the rail-
road a straight track to the river.
The incline track more than 20
years ago brought the Northern Pa
cific trains to the edge of the Co
lumbfa, where they were ferried
across the river.
