BONNER FAIR
GRAND SUCCESS
Hundreds See Wonderful Exhibits of
Products Of Bonner County
at Annual Fair
LOCAL PRODUCTS WIN PRIZES
Over 800 Displays Made at Fair This
Year at Standpoint

Bonner County's fifth annual
fair was viewed in Standpoint Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday of
this week by hundreds of citizens
of the county and from all accounts
greatly excelled previous exhibi-
tons in the number and excellence
of the displays made and in attend
ance. All parts of the county
were represented and the exhibits
were neatly and artistically ar
ranged, the fruit displays, of
course, being in predominance.
Products of the Kootenai valley
were given prominent place at
the fair and the exhibits of local
people attracted great deal of at
tention and were awarded a score
or more of first and second prizes.
Among the most notable exhibits
of the Kootenai valley were the
potatoes raised by the students of
Independent School District No 4
and the grain and grass display of
c. w. H. Heideman. Douglas
Irving, of this town, was awarded
the Northern Pacific railway com
pany 5 first prize for the best 100
pound sack of potatoes and Earl
Heathershaw won the fair associa-
ton S first prize for the best potato
exhibit.
The individual display of c. w.
H. Heideman was perhaps the best
individual display of fruits, seeds,
potatoes and grains and grasses
that has ever been exhibited in
this county. He had on display
the wonderful grains and grasses
that he has raised in this locality
and they are without a doubt the
grandest that has ever been shown
in this section of the county. His
seed display demonstrates that this
county will in the near future be
one of the greatest seed producing
sections in the west. Mr.. Heide-
mans display is valuable one aud
it will be exhibited at both the Spo-
kane Interstate Fair and the North
western Products Exposition at
Minneapolis.
Among the many interesting ex-
hibits at the county fair this year
was the booth which will be used
at the Spokane Interstate fair and
which will house the Bonner county
exhibit at Spokane and at the Min
neapolis Northwestern Products
Exposition. The booth is both
unique and original and represents
rustic bungalow. The roof is
covered with shakes and the sides
with cedar bark paneled with white
birch bark. In the back of the
room is a fireplace made from po-
tatoes, to represent cobblestones.
The booth is built in sections for
convenience in taking apart.
Among the displays made by the
residents of the Kootenai valley
which attracted considerable atten-
ton was that made by Mrs. Theo
Geizzelman which contained
canned Alderman peas, native haz-
elnuts, Siberian crab apples and
stringless greenpod beans. Anoth-
er display that attracted the atten-
ton of the ladies was the many
jars of jelly made by Mrs. Lee
Fewkes of Moravia
The complete list of Kootenai
valley prize winners has not been
obtained up to date. The first
prize for the largest apple was
awarded to +. Erlenwein who ex-
hibited a magnificent Spokane
Beauty. o. NJ. Campbell won the
third Northern Pacific Railway

PASSION PLAY
 AT ORPHEUM Beautiful Film of Dawn of Chris tian Era Shown to Crowd
 ed House

The story of the Passion Play as presented at the Orpheum last night is the greatest sermon ever preached. It is the story of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, the Savior of the world. The pictures are wonderfully clear and present the scenes of the dawn of the Christian era with a vividncsS which is impressive. In reproducing the life of Jesus the smallest detail has been made so true to biblical conception that readers of the worlds greatest book saw before them the enact mcnt of the tragedy, the story of which will endure so long as the world cndurcs.
 It is a wonderful thing that people living in the twentieth ccn- tury should be able to see DOT traycd before them the events which took place nearly two thou sand years ago, yet are as new as when Pilot delivered Jesus ov- er to his prosecutors.
 r The Passion Play is a film which every person should see. The expense of showing the pie lures arc enormous and the en- terprise of the management of the Orpheum in presenting the Passion Play to Valdez citizens entities him to liberal patronage. Many show houses in much larger cities hesitate to produce these pictures owing to the expense.

The story of the Alamo is as is the history of how band of heroic Americans met death at the hands of force of MpXicans which greatly Outnumbcrcd them. Not a man of the Americans es- capcd alive and all died fighting save five, who were weakened by wounds and made prisoners but were murdered.
 "Thc Alamo" Franciscan mission within the limits of the pres, mt city of San Antonio, Tex as, was built about 1722 and af- ter i792 was occupied as a fort. The building now known as the Alamo was the church of the mis- sion. which included also con- vent and hospital building, an en- closed convent yard and a plaza the whole being surrounded by a strong wall about eight feet high and three feet thick. The Alamo is noted for iis defense in 1886 during the war for independence in Texas. X small band of Tex ans under Col. William B. Travis made stand against about 1000 McXiCans under General Santa Anna. in which the entire number of Inc defenders was slain. San fa Anna's forces attacked the fort on February g and on March 6, after break in the wall had been made by cannon, assaulted in force. The Mcxicans were twice driven back with great loss but finally scaled the walls and en- gagged the defenders in n hand to hand struggle. The Texans, weakened by privation and over whelmed by numbers, fought till but five of Their number remains cd alive. Those five were killed by the Mexican generals orders. One man escaped from the fort before the assault began. The wife of an officer who was killed in tho fight, her child and two Mex jean women and negro boy were the only survivors. Col. David Crockett and Colonel James Bo- vic were conspicuous among tho defenders. The Mexicans lost about 52t killed, or nearly three

NO "BoULEvARD" GOES.

While the Fairbanks Times, the foremost newspaper i'll the Tan ana metropolis, is putting forth a splendid effort in behalf of the SOvernment-owned railway SyS- tenn from Seward to Fairbanks, the Fairbanks Citizen, a weekly publication of more or less mcr- it, appears to consider the "boule- Vard' project from Chitina to Fairbanks as the more important. This newspaper, and people of inc Panama district of like mind, might as well understand that Alaska generally does not cOnSid- CT this boulevard" scheme as of such particular importance as it's advocates would seem to think. And further, there will be no ''bOulevard' constructed until other portions of the territory, long neglected, shall be given at least pasSablc trails. Already, the NaldcZ-Fairbanks road has hccn consuming the major DOT ton of the funds of the Alaska road commission since the cstab- lishment of that organization, and it is about time that rat hola" were filled, so to speak. We, of this section of Alaska, arc going to protest against any 'bOule- rard' propositions.
 The Panama has better roads and more roads than any other part of Alaska. There is no req son why it should persist in "hog- ging," any longer, more than it's just proportion of the commis- siOn'S funds. There are a few trails and roads in this partic- ular section which need atten- iiOn, and which shall receive at tentiOn, or else there's to be a ''hOller" that can be heard on the dome of the national capitol. We oppose any boulevard" plan un- iii other sections of the north shall at least be accorded pass able trails and roads. So much for IhiS idle dream of the Citi- Zen.--Scward Gateway.
