On last week a four days session of
the rangers employed on the Nez Perce
National Forest Reserve was held in
this city at the office Of Supervisor

brought up and plans and ideas ex-

tecting timber from ravages of fire from
which it has suffered considerably in
times past. The matter Of making
the reserve more accessible through
trail construction as we'll as establish
ing communication by telephone was
gone over quite thoroughly.
The reserve affords a most excellent
field for the grazing Of cattle and sheep
and also turns in the Golfers Of the
government quite sum, in fact about
the only revenue received is through
this source. 1t is estimated that close
to $500 cattle and horses and $4,000
sheep will find range on the Nez Perce
reserve this year.
At the present time the rangers are
employed in the construction Of the
telephone line through the Big Cove
section in the South Fork country
The line formerly followed the river
but is now being changed to the wa
gon route for the purpose Of maintain
ing better service. About II mile

A Straw Vote.

Our old friend Jake Wooster, who
has been visiting at outside points for
several weeks, passed through Grange
vile enroute to Whitebird the first Of
the week. Jake was among the pas
sengers on the belated train Of last
Friday night and stated that while
waiting for the track to be cleared a
straw vote was taken on the various
candidates for president. Teddy, it
seems proved the most popular, re-
ceiving ~ votes out ofa possible 70,
Taft, 6; Bryan, 8; Clark, 8; Wilson,
6; Cummins, l; LaFollette; l Under
wood, 8; and Debs 3. The Lewiston
basket ball team and q number Of
rooters were on the train, no doubt
this accounted for the heavy majority
received by the man with the big
stick.

theft Of horses in this county and thu
case has been carried to the supreme
court by the attorneys for the red
skins on the grounds that the crime
alleged was said to have been com

An Example of Thrift.

As an example of what can be
done on Camas Prairie by the man
with ambition and pluck we wish to
point to William Hunt Of Winona.

stock in trade consisted Of four head
of cayuses, eighteen dollars and un-
limited pluck and ambition. The
other day he disposed Of his ranch Of
24O acres over there for $75 an acre
and this sum together with other
property will give him q fortune Of
$33, 900, all made in twelve years
through hard work and thrift. HI
