Idaho County Now Has Most Mod
ern Prison.
READY FOR OCCUPANTS SOON
Steel Cages for Sixteen-Sheriff's
Office Moved.

Idaho county's new jail is nearing
completion, the expert from the factory
who has been in the city supervising
the erection Of the steel cages, having
completed his work and left for the
east and all that remains to be done
now is the building Of the exercise
room for the prisoners, the dividing
of the front portion Of the building
into sleeping room for the jailer
and the moving of the sherifi's
Office, which under the new arrange.
ment will be in the same room as the
Jail. 1t is expected that all work
will be completed by the first of next
week and the Idaho county bastile
will be ready to receive any and all
occupants who have a hankering to
break the laws of the state.
The cells are the most modern
manufactured, built of the best of
steel and locked by device which
permits the jailer to handle his pris-
oners without going in among them.
The cells, which are four in number,
sit in the center of the room and have
an aisleway around them so that the
jailer can sec every move of his pris-
eners. Each cell will accommodate
four prisoners, thus giving Jail room
for sixteen men. The exercise room,
which is built directly in front Of the
steel cages, is being built of two-inch
plank which are spiked solid, thus
making wall four inches thick Of
solid wood. This room will be used
through the day by the TRUSTEES.
Facing the street and in front Of this
room is the sheriffs Office and sleep
ing room for the deputies, one Of
whom will sleep at the Jail.
With the completion Of the jail,
Idaho county will have one Of the
best and safest jails in North Idaho
and can take care Of her prisoners
without having to call upon Nezperce
county and going to the additional
expenses Of paying car fares for pris-
oners and deputies to and from Lewis
ton. The cage is so constructed that
when permanent jail is built, they
may be removed and placed in the
same without dismantelling. The old
ljail, which was condemned by the
grand jury some time past, will be
given up entirely and the room in the
court house now occupied by the
sherif's office, will be used during
court terms as witness room and
when court is not in session Superin-
tendent Glanville will hold the teach
ers' examinations there.

Cote never told him when the iudg-

At That Time People Will Vote
on Liquor Question.
DRYs CALL FOR MEETING
Those of Opposite Belief Not An
nounced any Meeting to Date.

The board of commissioners is in
session this week and one of the first
matters to occupy the attention of
that body was the examination Of the
petition filed two weeks ago and ask
ing that the local option question be
re-submitted to the voters Of Idaho
county. After canvassing the petit
ton the board issued an order for the
election and set the date for Nobem-
ber %. The matter Of calling such
an election is mandatory and not
optional as was stated by the Globe
last week. just how the board feels
in regard to the matter is not material
as section one Of the local option law
says: Whenever petition has been
signed and filed with the county
auditor Of any county as hereinafter
provided, praying for the board If
county commissioners of the county
for the privilege Of determining by
ballot, whether the sale Of intoxica-
ting liquors as a beverage shall be
prohibited within the limits of said
county, the board Of county commits
sioners SHALL at its next regular
meeting order special election to be
held" Thus it will be seen that the
Globe has erred in stating that cit is
optional with the commissioners under
the law, as to whether they call an
election or not.
Those who are opposed to the re-
turn to the licensed sale Of liquor will
hold a meeting at the court house
Thursday afternoon, Oct 18, a call
for the same having been issued by
Rev. Walter Hitchcock, formerly
pastor of the Presbyterian church Of
this city but now associated with the
Anti-Saloon League. 1t is said Rev
Herwig will be present and an or
ganization effected. Those who take
the opposite stand have not as ye
announced any meeting. 1t is hopet
that campaign Of vile personalitie
and slander will be avoided and il
discussing this question man shoult
be liberal enough to grant his fellow
man the right Of opinion, no matter i
he does disagree with him. Al
honest difference Of opinion should b
respected but the hypocrite should b
ferretted out, no matter to which sid
he belongs.

Big Men Guard President.

In the selection OF the special police
to serve along the line of parade dur
ing the visit of President Taft at Lew
iston last Saturday, men were secured
who rivaled the President in weight,
physically, not mentally. Seth Jones,
the big Salmon river stockman who
weighs close to 365 pounds in his
stocking feet and is as supple and
graceful as fawn, headed the column,
then came George Rule of Denver.
Burley Clayton, who makes the scale
beam tremble like a leaf when he
steps upon the platform, was not
present, being too busy with his black
smith work to attend the affair.
Burley confines his work to the state
politicians, having raced with Barney
O'Neil in forty yard dash at Denver
last fall. Auctioneer Ralph Of Nez.
perce and Grangeville, was also a
member Of the body of giants who
looked after the the welfare of the
President. 1t has been rumored tina,
Taft's running mate would come from
the. west, preferably idaho, and since
Senotor Borah has stated he will no
accept the nomination if rendered
him why not put up Seth Jones O.
''Bill' Ralph? Ralph might be pre-
ferable from the fact that with hi
name on the ticket mighty flint
campaign slogan could be gotten up
think how awe-inspiring and fetchin!
would be the cry: "Vote for the tw'
Bills and Honest Government"

The work of transcribing the re-
cords Of Lewis county has been COM
pleted by j. B. White and r. M.
Beck and the shipment made to Nez-
perce where the books will be install
ed as the official records. The work

been employed in the task Of prepar-
ing the new records.
The Lewis county contract provide
for loose leave record and the ordin-
ary wide carriage typewriters were
employed in the work here An esti-
mate shows that more than 125,OOO
folios have been handled during the
period the transcribing has been un-
der way and the operators have made
from s. to $40 per day. One of the
young ladies employed in the work
averaged as much as $65 per week
for . period of several weeks and the
average work of the force was about
1000 folios per day.
+ In the preparation of the records
for Lewis county, Mesers. White and
Beck prepared duplicate copies that
will be used in connection with an
abstract Office to be opened at Nez.
perce in the near future. This office
will be in charge of Mr.. Beck and il
is expected that about three months
will be required to complete the in.
dexes. Mr.. Beck will soon remove
to Nezperce to establish his home and

After lingering illness, w. j.
Kelly died at the family residence at
Z o'clock Friday morning, Sept. 20,
and was buried Sunday afternoon at
2 o'clock.
Mr.. Kelly was born in Barnett,
Vermont in the month Of April, 1881,
making him over eighty years old at
the time of his death. Filled with
the spirit Of adventure, while yet a
young man he made the long journey
around the Horn, and landed on the
California coast to try his fortune as
frontiersman.
In 1864, being attracted by the
reports Of the fabulous wealth Of the
Warren placer camp, he came here
during the glittering days of prosperi-
ty. While here he engaged in various
pursuits. He was once mail carrier
from Mt. Idaho to Warren, travelling
by way of Florence during the golden
days of that camp. Mr.. Kelly acted
as scout and courier for Gen. Howard
during the Indian war, and during
that persod he saved his life number
of times by his wit alone.
In 1890 he engaged in the mercan.
tile business in Warren and about the
same time was married to Mrs. Morris
who survives him. He continued ir
the mercantile business till his death
being a member of the firm Of Kelly
4 Patterson.
During his life here his interest in
mining never diminished, and he
owned very promising property
known as the Arlis.
The fact that Mr.. Kelly had many
friends and no enemies speaks plainly
for his worth as neighbor and citizen.
Very few Of the Warren pioneers,
perhaps but two or three, are left to
tell Of the days when they were boys
together, struggling with rugged ma,
ture for her hidden wealth. just a
few more years and the last grey.
haired boy will be summoned to that
unknown land.

Bonded Placer Property.

A deal was closed this week through
which the Horseshoe Bend placer
ground was bonded to company OF
Butte capitalists, the amount Of the
bond being $4,000, substantial
payment on which has been made and
the bond to run four months from
date. This is an excellent piece of
property and the company that has
taken the bond has sufficient means
back Of it to handle the property.
A representative of the company has
been here all summer prospecting the
ground and there seems little doubt
but that sale will result. Several
drills will be placed on the ground at
once and further development work
carried out. The Butte people intend
placing several dredges on the proper.
ty and will invest close to hall
million dollars if they make the pur'
chase. The property is owned BY
