Hodgen Making a Success

Our old friend, Stanley Hodgen, who
was located at Whitebird in the mer.
camille business several years ago, but
who went to Spirit Lake in the north
end OF the state ,and opened store,
is getting along swimmingly as the
Following item taken from the Herald
OF his home town indicates. In speak
ing of the success of Mr.. Hodgen, who
by the way, is the son-in-law of Mr..
and Mrs. A. E. Alexander of this city,
the Herald says:
The Newport department store open
ed its doors to the public Of Newport
on Thursday of this week. Great prep
arations have been in the course of
consummation for some weeks past and
the result is that the present store in
Newport is one of the best and most
complete in the Inland Empire. 1t is
as large as the Hodgen store here and
will be larger.
The opening of this store is another
link in the string of stores which s. E.
Hodgen and his associates are working
on. In 1908 the Spirit Lake store was
opened and has been managed by Mr..
Hodgen. In 1910 the lone store opened
to take care Of the business in that
section. Two years later the Newport
store started to do business

here to Occur d d'Alene, where the state
auditors meet next week and also to
attend the democratic state conven.
tion.
During the past several months the
duties Of his office have taken him
over the southern portion of the state
great deal and in speaking of the
conditions down that way he was quite
enthusiastic. He says those who have
not been over that country at late
date cannot realize how it has come to
the front and what reign of prosper.
ity has been ushered in. The Difficult
ties that have heretofore existed be-
tween the citizens and the water com.
panies have been adjusted in a most
satisfactory way, in most instances, the
land board stepping in and demanding
fair deal to the citizens. The crops
look promising and the fruit crop prom.
ises to be bumper this year. Hay
grain and potatoes will also swell a
heavy yield and high prices for most
OF the products are assured.
As regards the political situation Mr.
Hattabaugh ventured the assertion that
in that section the friendship for the
Democratic party had been strongly
cemented and that through his untirine
efforts in behalf of the people Gov
Hawley has two friends where he for.
merly had one. In the north as well
the present state administration has
made strength for the Democratic par.

in the taxation method and while there
still remains much to be done, the re-
election of Gov. Hawley will mean the
carrying to completion an ideal

We doubt if the state of Idaho has
ever had more conscientious, hard
working and result getting governor
than the present one and his reelection
is assured. If any citizen of Idaho
thinks for one minute that the present
incumbent of the governor Is office is
not devoting his entire time to the peo-
pie and the state let him make an early
call on the governor any morning and
we venture the remark that he will
find him at work at his desk at an
hour when some of us are in heavy
sleep. 1t is early and late with Cover
nor Hawley and he is giving the best
of his life to the administration of the
affairs of his state.

ANOTHER RAILROAD
AUTHENTIC NEWS THAT NEE
FERCE LINE WILL BUILD HERE
Line TO RUN TO LEWISTON
man In the East to Finance It. Pacific
Power Company Said to Figure {,
in the Deal tt8I

News from an authentic source
comes to the Free Press that ere long
Grangeville can boast of another line
OF railroad and this too, from the north
and not the much talked of Salmon
river road. According to reports, which
TO certain extent can be confirmed,
the Nez Perez & Idaho railway, that is
the line running from Vollmer to Nez
ferce, has surveyors in the field and
is preparing to construct line from
Vollmer to Lewiston, followin q
where practical the old electric line
survey. AT point on Mason's Prairie
the line will branch, one going to Lew
lston and the other coming on through
Camas Prairie by the way of Westlake
and terminating at Grangeville.
Recently a Grangeville man left for
the east and it is said he is negotiating
with capitalists for the sale Of bonds
which it will be necessary to issue in
order to build the additional line. A
large amount of the heavy timber
country will be tapped by the new line
and the tonnage on Camas Prairie has
also proved most tempting.
The Pacific Light & Power Com.
pany is supposed to have more than
ordinary interest in the proposition
and no doubt before long the big men
behind the move will show their hand.
The present line from Nez Perce to
Nollmer has been earning handsome
dividends and consequently the raising
of additional capital to tap country
heavy in tonnage is not apt to be a
very difficult problem.

a fine program and Nez Perce, not to
be outdone, is also going to give some
thing new and novel. A special train
from Grangeville to the prairie towns

|town in Idaho, is going to give a real
western celebration and while the de-
tails have not been worked out, sends
Iword that we can expect something be-

|speaking of the Salmon river affair,

Whitebird will celebrate on the

July Fourth will be given over to In

Fashioned picnic. Everyone will bring

At a second meeting of the commit

|above was definitely decided upon. It
was arranged to have bazoo band for
THE parade. Much music will be on the
program for July Fourth, both instru-
mental and vocal. There will be free
lemonade.
Whitebird's celebrations have al
ways been a success and no one has
ever gone away from here feeling in
the least disappointed. This one will

not celebrating this year, it is certain
that great throng Of people will come
down from the prairie to help White

Foreign wheat Situation.

The harvests of the southern hemis-
phere reaped during our winter sea
son have given wheat crop which has
been estimated to be nearly 6k per
cent larger than that of the previous
year. This includes the crop of Argen-
tina, Chile, Australia and New Zealand.
The great wheat crop of India, about
the third in magnitude among the
world IS wheat crops, is now nearing the
end of it's harvest, the bulk of it being
already garnered. The second general
memorandum Of the Indian government
in regard to this crop indicated an area
slightly less than that of year ago,
but exceeding the average for the five
wears ending with 1909-19lO by about
100000 acres.
In Europe winter wheat, which ex-
cent in Russia constitutes the bulk OF
the wheat crop, was for the most part
sown under favorable conditions and
came through the winter well. Dur
ing a considerable part of April very
unreasonable weather prevailed over an
extensive region; but the reports so far
received do not indicate that any ser
;ons damage has been done to the wheat
crop.
Taking into account the wheat crop
already secured in the southern hemis-
phere and that for the most part Sc
cured in Indian, in connection with the
outlook for winter and spring wheat to-
gether in Europe and in Canada, there
does not at present seem to be any rea-
son for apprehending shortage in the
foreign portion of the worlds wheat
supply for the coming harvest year
