" BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY. j
:
James A. OauQherty.

James A. Daughterty, who repre-.
sents the Fifteenth Missouri district
In congress, was born in Athens, Ten.
nessee, August 80, 1S47. He recaiv.
ed his education in the common
schools of his native state and at the
age Of twenty removed to Missouri.
For a time he engaged in farming,
but later he became interested in
mines in the Webb City district.
Through his mining operations he &C.
quired considerable wealth and en-
barked in the banking business. Mr..
Da%ugherty's first position in public
life was that of county court judge.
He served two terms on the bench
and then retired to accept election
as a member of the Missouri house
of representatives. He was elected
to congress two years ago on the
Democratic ticket. According to the
returns of the recent primaries he
has been defeated for denomination,

Call for Third Party Convention.

Elsewhere in this issue of the Free
Press will be found the call for the Pro.
gressive State convention, which will
be held at st. Anthony on July 80, at
which time delegates to the Roosevelt
convention to be held at Chicago on
August will be selected, presidential
electors also named and full state
ticket put in the field. The Free Press
be it understood, is democratic but
when called upon to give an opportun
ity to citizens to express their politica
views who for some reason seem unabl,
to get into print through the republican
papers of the state, it is willing to Civ,
of its space, hence the appearance OF
the call by the Roosevelt party of this
state.

Make Quick Livestock Delivery.

The O.-W. r. & N. company holds the
record for quick delivery OF livestock
from the Priarie country to Portland
markets by taking six carloads OF cat
tie from Fem to the Portland Union
Stockyards company in less than thirty
hours. The cattle were shipped by Ed.
Knorr early last week, the point OF ori-
gin being Fem. A special stock tram
was run from Lewiston to Riparla
where close connections were made with
the Portland fast freight and the ship
ment was delivered in Portland under
the thirty-hour limit.
This eliminated the necessity OF un'
loading for feed and water while IN
transit and is an important considera
ton from the standpoint OF the shipper
It was explained that shipments OF this
number of carloads can be gwen tne
same routing to the Portland markets
and it is expected the improved facih
ties will result in heavier shipments u
this point.

DOUBLE THE POWER
GRANGEVILLE LIGHT & POWER
co. TO DOUBLE CAPACITY.
PLANT THOROUGHLY MODERN
Already Among the Best. Will Have
Double Equipment by the End
of the Summer.

Sometimes the people profit by the
interest in the affairs of their commun
ity, and, sometimes they come out
loser. However, we can point to one
case where the peple are way ahead,
we refer to the taking over of the
Grangeville light plant by an outside
company several years ago. The plant,
at the time it changed hands, was in
pretty bad shape and on account of a
lack of sufficient capital improvements
and advances could not be made which
the country demanded. The new pur-
chaser came with unlimited capital and
when it was deemed necessary to make
this or that improvement the funds
were on hand to carry it out. Much
money has been spent on the plant
since coming into possession Of the
present owners, several hundred thous
and dollars would not cover the sum
! The plant has been increased in effic
iency twofold and today finds Grange
vile supplying light and power to Cot
! tonwood, Vollmer, Ferdinand and Ilt
and the end is not yet.
In keeping with its policy of build
ing up plant that will meet all EN-
ergencies, the company has now on th'
road duplicate equipment of what a
present is at the river, In fact an aux
| iliary plant will be built this coming
summer. The present power is of So
horse power and with the equipmen
soon to be in place, it will be doubled
There is an advantage in having a com
pany back of the proposition with plen
ty of capital as can readily be seen

The Home Paper as a News Letter

The Home Paper is letter writ.
ing sayer, says an exchange: "Did
you ever stop to think what a great la
Dor saver the home paper is, as means
OF communication with absent friends?
Write me often' is the last command
the one breaking away from home ties
so often gives to those left behind. In
the rush and hurry every day, very few
people nowadays have time to derote to
correspondence of the le:surely kind
kept up with such unvarying punctual-
ity. And there is where the home pa
per saves the world of trouble. 1t is
better than letter and gives informa-
tion letter could not. Items of inter
est are in it that the writer might not
knnw or overlooked. 1t is wonderful
how eagerly one devours home paper
when stranger in a strange land.
Even the people you do not know init
mately become of absorbing interest to
you when you read that they have died
or married, or figured prominently in
the home affairs. If there are some
one of your family away from home try
sending them the paper regularly and a
letter occasionally and see if they do
not appreciate the favor of the paper.

BAD DST0RN SUNDAY
GRANGEVTLLE AND FOOTHILLS
IN PATH OF A BAD ONE.
MUCH DAMAGE TO PROPERTY
Storm Originated in Rocky Canyon;
Ends in the Clearwater
Country.

Grangeville was visited Sunday af-
ternoon by what was pronounced by
old timers as the worst hail storm in
years and as a result considerable dam
age has been sustained in the city and
some destruction to the crops of the
foothill country. While the storm was
bad one it is not to be compared to
that of 1908 and the loss is not nearly
as great.
The storm occurred shortly after four
in the afternoon and while of short du-
ration, not over ten minutes, the wind
blew a terrific gale and for five min
utes hail fell in abundance. Gardens
were moved clean and the fruit beat
en- from the trees Of the orchards. Nu,
merous windows were broken by the
hail and roofs of tar paper were great,
ly damaged.
The storm originated in Rocky Can
yon and swept the foothill country
doing more or less damage to the crops
in that part of the cuntry. The storm
spent itself along the South Fork coun
try and left quite strip of country
in damaged condition.
| The town of Mt. Idaho was in its
path and it is stated there are moi
many windows left in the buildings ovel
there. The loss, while considerable, il
not as large in amount as 1908 and W.
predict the set back sustained by thos'
is only temporary.

KILLED BY SHERIFF
ITO MAN, RESISTING ARREST, Is
SHOT DOWN.
WAS CHARGED WITH INCEST
shooting Took Place Near Chelsey
Where Victim Sought Refuge
For the Night.


killed shortly after 10:l5 O'Clock Mon
dav night by Sheriff w. T. Shockley
of Lewis county, after he had shot the
officer through the right hand in re-
sisting arrest ON charge of incest al
legged to have been committed against
his IA year old daughter. The shoot
ing took place at the George Banks
ranch mile west Of Chesley, where
Simmons sought refuge for the night in
his flight out of the country.
Sheriff Shockley accompanied by
Fred Warren, reached the Banks house
at 1915 O'Clock and Warren took a
position at the window while Mr..
Shockley went to the door. He raped
on the door and announced that he was
an officer. The door was opened by
Simmons, who fired at the same time.
The bullet made an ugly wound in Sher-
iff Shockley's hand but he returned the
fire and Simmons fell to the floor in a
dying condition Not word was spok-
en- after the officer demanded admit
tance to the house and Simmons made
an effort to speak after he was shot.
Warren fired one shot through the win
dow but it is believed the bullet from
Shockley's gun entered Simmon' IS alb
domen. The body was left where it fell
and the officers came to Reubens to
report the case to the coroner and Sc
cure surgical attendance for Mr.. Shock
leys hand.
1t appears the warrant for Simmons
arrest on the charge of incest was is
sued early today and placed in the
hands of Marshal William Kincaid Of
Ilo. Simmons declined to submit to ar
rest but went over to Vollmer, where
he secured a supply of ammunition ant
started across the fields toward Cole
Springs creek. A telephone message
was then sent to Sheriff Shockley a.
Nezperce and he made the drive to liz
in an automobile. He there took VI
the trail of Simmons at 6 o'clock thi
evening encountered Simmons 17-year
old son on the road, the boy having il
his possession horse that he was tax
ing to the George Banks place to assis
his father out of the country. Th'
boy was taken into custody and the of
fieers then drove to the George Bank
place, relying on the information Sc
cured from the boy.
After the shooting the officers ques
toned Banks but the only statemen
he would make was to the effect tha
he did not know that Simmons was en-
deavoring to escape arrest and did no
know he was armed. Banks was i
the room with Simmons when the Of
ficers arrived and freely stated tina
Simmons fired the first shot.
The killing of Simmons was declare
justifiable by the coroner's jury whic
was called to investigate the circun
stances leading up to the shooting.
Simmons was one of the first settler
in the Ilo-vollmer district and owne
considerable property in the old tow
Oh llo. He was carpenter by trad
and was successful in securing contract
IN this section. About seven years ae
MS wife deserted him and his tw
children and the latter were sent to til
home of their grandparents in Oklah
ma. They remained there until la
winter when they rejoined their fath'
mere and since that time they ha'
lived in Ilo.
