Interior Department Decides in Favor Of
Spokane Power Company-0iven
Right to Overflow Certain Land
on Lake Occur d'Alene.

Occur 'Alene, Idaho.-The decision
of the interior department in the case
of the Washington Water Power COM
pany versus the settlers along the st.
Joe river and banks of Lake Occur
d'Alene, rehearing of the case asked
for by the power company regarding the
revoking of the per nit to overflow GER
tain lands, has been rendered in favor
of the company, granting the right to
overflow the land. By this decision one
of the most important cases in the his
tory of north Idaho comes to close.
The case has been pending in the local
land office for several years.
Early in the year 1909 the Washing
ton Water Power company was given
the right to overflow the land, aggre-
eating approximately $500 acres, by the
erection of large dam at Post Falls,
but little more than year after this
permit was revoked.
The company filed an answer denying
the allegations and asked hearing. AS
a result of the hearing the secretary
revoked the permit to the company and
later at rehearing it was decided that
the charges set up by the settlers
against the company had not been
proven.
In the decision of the secretary just
received at the Occur d'Alene land
office he firmly states that in his opin-
ion there was not sufficient reason for
revocation and allows the permit to
stand.

states have issued joint proclamation
calling northwestern development con-

The conference is to plan campaign
and suggest legislation which will assist
the northwestern states in more rapid
development, and to stem the tide of
emigration to Canada. This fact is set
forth by the governors in the proclaim
alton, when they say:
"Not realizing the opportunities in
their own country thousands Of people
from the United States, with hundreds
of thousands of dollars in wealth, have
developed farms and built new homes
under foreign flag"
States which expect to perfect an or
ganization to work for the American
northwest are Minnesota, North Da-
kota, South Dakota, Montana, Idaho,
Washington and Oregon.
