LEWISTON
BONDS CARRY
Vote $4,000 for Bridge and
Livestock Home, With
Only SO Dissenters.

Lewiston did a proud act Tuesday
when it placed itself on record as
the city progressive par excellence,
by voting $4,000 bonds for the con-
struction Of a bridge across the Clear
water, connecting the north country
with the city, and $43, 900 for the pur-
chase of permanent home for the
Northwest Livestock association and
the establishment of city park, with
only SO opposers out of over 600
votes cast. Nothing in the history
of Lewiston has ever happened that
will compare with this act of progress
siveness, and 1t shows that that city
has broken away from the old fogy
ideas which have so long tied it
down to the insufferable conditions
of small country town, while aspir-
ing to the standing of a city. This
great change for the better Is attrib-
utable to the advent of Tom Richard
son and Booster Struble with their
progressive ideas. The incubation
was perfect and the virus "took,"
and see the results. Grangeville
should do likewise.

LETTER FROM OUR TOURISTS.

Santa Ana, Calf,
August 81, 1912.
Friend Branscombe:
We arrived in Santa Ana two weeks
ago and had very pleasant trip.
1t was somewhat expensive but we
got here all right We were five
weeks ON the road. We spent a
week in Frisco visiting with my
brother and taking in the sights, and
then We went to Los Angeles and
spent two days there, but did not
like that place very we'll. 1t was too
big and noisy so we decided to come
to Santa Ana. We are nicely located
here. l got broom house furnish
ed close to school, Macarthur got
one also. Santa Ana is a very pretty
place. 1t is town OF 10000 inhab-
itants surrounded by orange groves.
Land sells for from $1,000 to SIC, 900
per acre-we are not going to buy
very much of DIT.
Yesterday Macarthur and family, M.
v. Taylor and family and myself and
family picniced on the beach. 1t Is
only 9 miles from town and we GER
tainly had a good time. think
We are all going to like 1t here. If
we had some Grangeville water we
would like 1t better Water here is
good but 1t so hot we can't drink
1t. Mrs. Callan bought a pail of
oranges today for 10 cents. We do
not like oranges like we used to.
We miss the Globe, send It to 1876

With kind regards to all l remain,
Yours truly,

Cold Storage by Monopoly.
The attack made in the afternoon
by Calbreath upon the conservation
lists was answered at night by former
Gov. George C. Pardee, of California.
''The conservationist," he said,
wants the resources used but doesn't
want them wasted and above all, does
not want them grabbed and put in
cold storage, so they cannot be used"
Gov. Pardee cited the coal of Utah,
Wyoming, California and Alaska as
an instance of resources given away
and held in cold storage by private
interests.
He referred to various water po-
tentials that were held in private
hands unused
"If there lis any cold storaging to
be DONE" he said, ''let it be done
by the masses of the people who
now own the resources" For every
ton of coal that has been mined, said
the speaker, ton has BEEN wasted
by allowing It to remain in the mine.
Not because 1t could not be mined
and sold at a profit, but because
there was more money In going after
fresh coal. The timber resources
were being used in the same way, he
declared.

MOOSE TALE
Last Chapter in the Tale Of the
Moose Not Yet Written

The moose that was captured in
the city last week and Grated ready
for shipment to the park at Vir-
ginia was taken out on the Stoney
River road Saturday by Deputy
Game Warden James and released.
This action on the part of Mr..
James has stirred up considerable
discussion among local people and
also some correspondence on the
part of the Virginia park board.
Mr.. Rider, chief of the State
Game and Fish Commission had
given the Virginia Park Board per-
mission to get the moose and man
was dispatched to this city to &C
company the animal to the range
city. Capt. Trezona had furnished
a crate and everything was in
readiness when the park man ar
rived to transport the beast to Vir-
ginia. But there was no moose.
The Virginia Park board have
taken the matter up with the state
officials and an investigation will
be made as to who is to blame.
Mr.. James contends that the game
laws prohibit the having of an un-
antlered moose in possession while
the Executive Agent, Mr.. Rider,
says that authority for the domesti-
eating of deer, moose, elk and carl
bou is contained in section ~ of the
game laws as follows:

FATA[ FIRE
Early Morning Fire Fatal to Victim
Of Oil Explosion
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Takkunen Badly
Burned mr.. Takkunen Dies

The kitchen of the residence of
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Takkunen on
Chapman street was considerably
damaged by fire early Tuesday
morning and both Mr.. and Mrs.
Takkunen sustained burns from the
effects of which Mr.. Takkuuen
died at the Shipman Hospital
Wednesday morning.
1t seems that Mr.. Takkunen
arose as usual Tuesday morning
and started to light the kitchen
fire. Some coal had been left on
the CRATE and wood was placed on
the top. The fire did not burn as
rapidly as anticipated and TAX
kunen poured oil on the hot Goals.
An explosion followed and the
kitchen was a mass of flames. Mr..
Takkunen who was in his night
clothes was badly burned about the
lower limbs, hands and abdomen
Mrs. Takkunen rushed from bed
to the aid of her husband and also
sustained bad burns on the arms
and face. Both at once went to
the hospital where their injuries
were attended to. The burns
proved fatal however in the case of
Mr.. Takkunen and he died Wed
nesday morning. The remains
were taken to Fenske's undertaking
parlors and prepared for burial.
The chemical corps of the fire
department soon had the flames in
the building squelched but not until
the walls and ceiling were badly
charred. An oil can was found
near tine stove with the bottom
blown out and it is the impression
that gasolene was used instead of
kerosene.
The accident had a depressing
effect on the city. Mr.. and Mrs.
Takkunen are well known here
where they had resided for several
years. They have the sympathy
of host of friends. Mr.. TAX
kunen was 80 years of age and
leaves a widow and other relatives
to mourn his untimely and deplor-
able death. He was a brother of
Victor Takkunen, janitor of the
Lincoln school building. The
funeral will take place Sunday
from the Finnish church, Rev.
Hiirvi officiating.

CLEARED LAND SOLD
First Parcel Under Reclamation
ACt--M0derate Price

The first of the 10 forty-acre
tracts of state land improved under
the reclamation act of 1911 has been
sold by Theodore Nelson, manager
of the state lands department. 1t
is located in Beltrami county, near
Blackjack and sold at its appraised
value, $3.50 per acre. Twenty
acres of the 40 were cleared, grub
bed and made ready for the plow.
The state reclamation board was
created for the purpose of aiding
northern Minnesota settlers. The
appropriation made two years ago
was $4,000 to carry on the work.
This will probably be increased to
about $4,000 by the next legis-
lature. By the provisions of the
act, portions of tracts of state lands
are cleared and as soon as they are
ready for the plow, the land is sold
to settlers. Its purpose is to give
the farmer chance to produce a
crop the first year.
Under ordinary circumstances it
is impossible for the settler to make
living the first season and many
who desire to settle on state lands
are unable to do so on account of
lack of funds to provide for their
families.
The terms under which the land
is sold are same as those for state
lands that have not been cleared,
Is per cent Of the purchase price
down. The balance can run for
40 years, if necessary, at per cent
interest.
The tract in St. Louis county
selected for reclamation is located
near Pike Lake. It was cleared dur
ing the summer but will probably
not be listed for sale until next fall,
as it has not yet been appraised.
