NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. BOUNDARY.
Resurvey Made by United States Geo
logical Survey.


The boundary line between the
States of Idaho and Washington was
originally surveyed in 1878 by Rol-
lin j. Reeves, under contract with the
General Land Office. AS the mark
ings of this survey had become large
ly obliterated and as much of the
country is being rapidly settled, Con-
gress in 1908 authorized resurvey
or retracement and re-marking of the
boundary line and appropriated $685.
900 for the purpose. The resurvey-
ing was done by the United States
Geological Survey, and report of
the work has just been issued by the
Survey as Bulletin ass, by r. B. Mar
shall, Chief Geographer. The report
contains an extract from the field
notes of the original surveyor, Mr..
Reeves, whose account of the diff
eulties and hardships encountered is
most interesting at this time, when
much of the country traversed is a
well-settled and highly prosperous
section. In commenting on the trials
related by Mr.. Reeves, Mr.. Marshall
remarks:
with a knowledge of the country
traversed, as it is to-day, one can but
marvel at the persistence and hard1-
hood of that party of men who did
not falter until actual lack of food
compelled their retreat. At their
northernmost point they were nearly
80 miles from Spokane Bridge, the
nearest white settlement-90 miles
of mountains, windfall forests, thick
cts. with zero weather, and snow. In
the retracement comparatively few of
these difficulties were encountered.
The Washington boundary
line runs through rolling agricultural
and fruit country, where the work
was easy, and also through heavily
timbered mountains, where cont1n-
nous chopping was necessary. The
portion of the boundary north from
Newport to the Canadian line is de-
scribed as excessively rugged.
Most of the wooden boundary
nosts of the original survey had dis
appeared, though in setting the new
posts their stumps were often en-
countered. New posts of wrought
iron were set at every mile point, and
every miles, as closely as the TO-
biography would allow, SO0-pound
Granite monuments were set with the
words idaho and Washington"
chisled in their respective sides. In
ali TIT miles of boundary were COW
cred, and that number of practically
imperishable posts and monuments
we're set or metal tablets cemented
into powders. The report contains
a description of each post and
statement as to what was found re-
naming of the old markings. 1t also
contains a topographic map the data
for which were obtained in the re-
survey, showing all the natural to-
geographic features and the works of
man for width of about three
fourths of mile on either side of the
boundary line. The line crosses many
rivers. small streams, railroads. and
wagon roads and passes through the
towns of Newport and Pennington.

NM. Holmes is a man of unusual
,sSility as an evangelist in which line
he has spent many years with mark
ed success.
The Beaumont (Texas) Enterprise
says of him: "Mr. Holmes is fearless
but merciful; he attacks with all his
power, every form of evil, but he
tempers his fight with gentleness and
kindness. While he is unmerciful in
his contest against sin and evil, he
offers helping hand to the sinner
and evil doer."
Mr.. Holmes has the endorsement
of many of the best and most able
men among his people, as many COM
mendations from the press and indi-
viduals, and is thoroughly represen-
tative among his people. Mr. Holmes
holds two degrees from Drake Uni
versity, of Des Moines, Iowa, and has
made the very best use of his splendid
preparation.
Mr.. Curtis does not come as a
stranger to the citizens of Colfax,
having lived for a number of years
in our town, and is well and favor
ably known by all the older settlers
of this vicinity. Since his gradua-
ton from the Eugene Bible Univer-
sity some years ago, he has met with
the greatest success, both as pastor
and evangelist. He has worked as
assistant with some of the best evan
gelists among his people and holds
the strongest concentrations from
each of them.

FIGHTING BOVINE DISEASE.
Treatment Recommended by State
College Experiment Station.

Treatment Recommended by State
College Experiment Station.
tuberculosis in cattle, though pre-
ventable, is found in almost every
locality in which cattle are raised. 1t
is much more PREVALENT in some COM
munities than in others and usually
is most prevalent when the animals
are closely stabbed. Where the dis
ease exists in the herd it may also be
contracted in the pastures.
Since the cause and means by
which it is spread are known, the
problem now is to keep it out of the
healthy herds and to eradicate it
from diseased ones. All that need be
done is to remove the diseased cattle,
dlsinfect the premises, prevent con-
tact with other diseased herds and
add only healthy animals to the
healthy herds. This sounds easy,
but certain characteristics of tuber-
culosis render it quite difficult. For
instance, tuberculosis is somewhat
slow in its development and in the
early stages the animals show no out
ward signs of the disease; is thought
to be healthy, and is used as a
healthy animal, while it really is
spreading the disease.
Early diagnosis is necessary. As
there are no dependable, visible signs
In the early stages, the problem of
9@itiye diagnosis is all-important.
However, the tuberculin test has been
evised and is reliable when used by
trempetent and experienced men.
= If the herd is healthy, one should
purchase only tuberculin tested ami
mails which have come from reliable
nerds. If they come from doubtful
nerds they should be kept isolated
Tor three months and re-tested.
If the test shows only few dis
eased animals in the herd they should
be removed at once and the stable
dlsinfected. If the diseased animals
are of special value for breeding
they may be kept isolated and the Off
spring removed at birth and never al
lowed to feed upon the milk of the
diseased COW unless the milk is pas
teurized,
If the majority of the herd is dis
eased, it is necessary to treat them
all as diseased and to build up new
nerd from the offspring. This is
possible by removing the calves at
birth and feeding them pasteurized
milk and testing them every six
months so that the diseased, If there
should be any. may be taken from the
new herd before they begin to spread
the disease. This requires several
years time, great perseverance In
preventing the disease from being
transmitted to the new herd, and per-
slstent use of the tuberculin test.
We must have systematic and reg
uiar tuberculin testing. The disease
is slowly developing one; hence to
eradicate it requires several years OF
systematic and cooperative work on
w part Of both stockmen and vet
fnarians. If every community in
Ely state did its share of this work
entually we should be rid OF this
dreaded disease.

1t begins to look like the Cubs
had to beat both Giants and Pres
ident Lynch for National League
pennant.
Yesterday Lynch suspended
John Evers for five days because
of the Trojan's argument with
Umpire Finneran Saturday. This
will keep the second baseman out
of the first two clashes with the
Giants here Thursdayand Friday.
Five days is an unusual time
for a player to be suspended. The
usual punishment is three-day
lay-off.
Heinie Zimmerman was also
fined $50 for arguing.
New York players who have
committed as great offenses as
did Evers are usually fined light
ly, seldom suspended, and never
on the eve of a Cub series. There
are many queer angles to Lynch's
recent actions, among them his
suspending of Tinker and Tim
norman in former Giant series.
Even without Evers the Cubs
crept up on the Giants yesterday.
Downs subbed for John. His
fielding was ragged, but he did
