WANT MONEY FOR
POWDER PLANT
Proposition of Manufacturing Cheap
Dynamite Now Being Pushed
Over County
WOULD SELL DYNAMITE AT COST
Stockholders Of Proposed Company
Would Get Cheap Powder.

Believing that the greatest him
drance to the development of
Bonner county is the high cost of
removing stumps from cutover
lands, the Standpoint Commercial
club proposes to lend its aid to-
wards the securing of some $25, 0OC
in subscriptions from Bonner coun-
ty people, the money to be used to-
wards the construction and opera
ton of dynamite manufacturing
plant.
If SOS, 900 worth of stock is sub
scribed for by Bonner county
people before June l it is proposed
to organize the Diamond Powder
Co" with capital stock of SIS, OOC
divided into 1,250 shares at $50
each. The dynamite will be sold
at cost to stockholders of the com
pany and it is figured that the
powder can be manufactured at a
cost of from 10 to - cents pei
pound.
The stock subscription lists are
now i'll the hands of various citizens
in each locality of the county
Lists are now in the possession OF
the following residents of Boomers
Ferry; w. ]. Mahoney, A. ]. Kent,
Prof. F.. +. Elliott and c. w. H
Heideman.
There seems to be no doubt il
the minds of those who are pro
noting the new enterprise but thai
sufficient stoclRwill be sold to pro
vide for the construction of tn,
powder plant. If the plant il
built it will prove a great benef
to the farmers and ranchers of tn,
entire county as the cost of stumI
powder will be reduced from 6 t
10 cents per pound.

ROOSEVELT
FORCES WIN
National Convention Delegates 7 to l
In Favor Of Theodore
Roosevelt.
DEFENBACH NOT A CANDIDATE
Says at LewistOwn That He Won't
Run For Office

The republican state convention
was called to order late yesterday
afternoon at Lewiston, Idaho and
the following eight delegates were
selected to represent the state at
the national republican convention;
Evans of Idaho, George R. Barker
of Bonner, D. w. Davis of Oneida,
Cheney St. Clair of Bonneville, +.
+. Fiske of Canyon, A. r. Crusean
of Ada, Frank J. Hegenbarth
of Fremont, and c. L. Hoffman of
Kootenai County.
Seven of these delegates are Sup
porters of Col. Roosevelt and one,
c. l.. Hoffman is a Taft man.
There were 3O2 delegates at the
Lewiston convention of which LAP
were Taft supporters and 100 were
Roosevelt men. The Bonner coun-
ty delegation stood seven for Taft
and six for Roosevelt. The con-
vention ended tremendously.
One of the surprises of the week
in connection with the state con
vention was the announcement at

CLAIM K. Y.
RAILWAY SOLD
Creston Paper Prints Rumor That e. P.
Company Will Operate K. v.
Ry. May 18th.
REGULAR TRAINS TO SPOKANE
Would Mean More Traffic Through
Boomers Ferry and Better Service.

Persistent rumors that the
Canadian Pacific railway has
bought the Kootenai Valley line
through this valley have been going
the rounds for some time and this
80 week were stronger than ever
before. The rumor now is that
the K. V. will be taken over by
the c. P. X. on the 18th of this
month and that soon afterwards
regular daily trains will be running
on the lower road.
According to number of the
residents, there is every reason why
the c. P. R. should want to buy
the K. V. road and every reason
on the other hand why the Great
Northern should not want to sell.
The main result of the purchase as
seen in this valley would be great
injury to the Great Northern line
which runs into Nelson from
Spokane.
If the c. P. r. makes the pur-
chase and runs the regular trains
from the Landing or Wynndel to
Spokane, it will be able to carry
all the freight and passengers from
the Kaslo and upper lake district
into Spokane, connecting with the
Spokane international tracks in
Idaho, no doubt at Boomers Ferry.
At present most of the passenger
traffic from the Kaslo district goes
to Spokane over the Hill line from
Nelson.
The c. p. r. was very keen to
get control of the road two years
ago but the reported negotiations
fell through. Since then the c. P.
X. has done considerable building
at Kootenay Landing but there is
no doubt but that it would like to
have the Great Northern land aud
town site at Kuskanook. 1t is
much more desirable in every way
than the present landing and it is
believed that if the present rumors
work out the round house will be
moved from Sirdar to Kuskanook.
The c. P. R. officials have al
ready made a number of trips over
the K. V. tracks and although
nothing definite has been given out
there is no doubt but that their re.
ports are being given full consider
4 stion with the view of making q
purchase. -Creston Review.

SAYSC.P.R TO
CHANGE ROUTE
Libby Paper Claims Moyie Grade Of
Spokane international Will Be
Abandoned Soon.
MAY TRAVERSE ENTIRE VALLEY
Claimed That New Route Will Be Along
Kootenai River Banks.

nC w cSl6In News OF LlDDy,
Mont, published the following
account, last week, of certain
changes of route which, it is claim
ed the Canadian Pacific railroad
has in view:
Robert Hess, of Warland, has
returned from an extended trip
into northern Canada. OF more
than passing interest in his trip
was some information he picked up
at Fernie, while waiting at that
place for a train to bring him on
down the Kootenai to his home
While sitting in his hotel at that
place he overheard four or five
engineers talking and looking over
a map while carrying on their
conversation Not knowing who
he was he sat and listened. In
dicating OH the map they were
discussing the construction of a
line down the Kootenai river to
run from Elko, B. c. to Boomers
Ferry. AS this proposed line runs
through his home, naturally Mr..
Hess was very attentive and heard
them discuss in detail the country
mentioned. He says they had
more detailed information about
the Kootenai valley than he had;
though this has been his home for
several years.
Among other things, Mr.. Hess
said they discussed various places
along the proposed route where
there were running streams for
water tanks, level land for town
site purposes, and in fact many
details included in the project OF
running a new railroad He also
heard them discuss the difference
this proposed line would make in
the running of the "Soo-Spokane
train, the crack fast train on the
Canadian Pacific. This part OF
the discussion took the view that
by running down the Kootenai
river and taking advantage of the
exceptional grade which this river
provides, the Canadian Pacific
could lop off considerable of the
running time of the train from
the eastern terminal to Spokane
that the grade which they now
have along the Moyie is practically
prohibitive for transcontinental ser
vice and that generally this pro
posed line was a good one, etc.
Following this conversation Mr.
Hess said he talked with the pro
prietor of a hotel i'll Fernie and
with others there and he said il
was of general knowledge, or ac-
Ncepted as such there, that the
Canadian Pacific intended in the
near future to run such a line
down the Kootenai river as that
mentioned in the conversation
among the engineers which was
overheard by Mr., Hess i'll the
hotel. This line, if constructed
would follow the north and ives
bank of the Kootenai river all tn,
way from the first crossing of tina
river to Boomers Ferry, at tina
place it would join the line whicl
runs west from that place thu
eliminating the Moyie grade. Tn
line would pass Libby on tn
opposite side of the river from tn
city.
