SPEED LAWS.

State Secretary Phillips was prob ably we'll aware before he assumed office that the custom of breaking the speed laws of the state, by drivers of motor vehicles of all sorts, had be- come a very general one. Observa- ton must have taught him that long ago. At any rate it is a satisfaction to note that he proposes to aid the police of different cities in enforcing the law and in this way giving the public a fuller measure of protection than 1t has been enjoying. The speed ing which he has detected in Water I,11rv is by no means confined to that city. and if, as he states, he proposes to become active in checking the speed menace wherever 1t crops out, a busy time is assured hin.-Ansonia Seitine1.

FINE LIVING ON SHIPBOARD
How the Menu Has Been Improved
Since Charles Dickens Crossed
the Ocean.

When Dickens came over to Amer
lea II years ago, there was one large
table In the dining room for passen-
gers. The first offic sat at the head,
carving the turkey with all the grace
he could command between lurches of
the good ship trusting to Providence
that the gravy would not slop over.
The passengers sent their plates along
the line and waited for their helpings
Today the dining room OF large ship
looks like the dining room OF fine
hotel. Harold Chester writes in Les
lies. 1t is just as exquisitely appoint
ed and has every good thing to eat that
can be found on land In fact, one OF
the new ships has a restaurant named
after famous one in New York. and
the two keep in touch by wireless so
that the menus, day by day. are the
same. Think OF having your dinner
arranged by wireless-your macaroni
by Marconi.
The dining room Is divided up into
a number of small tables. so that you
can have your own party, with only
half dozen OF you. with your own
walter instead Of sitting at long
table and passing your plate as Dick
ems did
The development of the wonders OF
cold storage has done more than any
other one thing to make life on the
ocean wave one long round OF Joy.
Cold storage gives you the best in the
world to eat, and every day Of the
year. A world traveller was telling me
the other day that he had eaten grape
fruit every morning all around the
world. The ship on which he sailed
put in large amount Of ice cream
made in New York. and 10 days later.
when he arrived In San Francisco. he
was still eating New York ice cream.

ELK RIVER MAN
HAS DISAPPEARED

A report has reached Moscow
from Elk River that w. w. King, a
resident of the Elk Creek Basin
section, has mysteriously disappear
ed, leaving no clew as to his where
abouts. According to the report
Mr.. King has not been seen or heard
of for several days. He hitched
his team to a wagon last Thursday
and drove his wife to Elk River, a
distance of about five miles from
his home, from which point she
came by train to Moscow. Mr.. King
was seen leaving Elk River on his
return home but has rot been heard
of since. His team has been found
in the pasture, however, so it is
supposed that the missing man
reached home safely.
The theory as TO his disappear
ance is that he suffered an attack of
heart trouble while away from his
house and has been covefsd up by
the snow which has reached depth
in that section of almost two feet.
A party of his neighbors has been
searching for the missing man tor
several days but as yet the mystery
of his disappearance has not been
olved.-Tuesday Starr Mirror.

SAY ELK MILL
TO Be REMOVED

Wednesday Tribune: Rumor has
been persistent in Lewiston this week
that decision has been reached to
dismantle the big sawmill at Elk
River, owned by the Potlatch Lum-
Der company interests, and with the
rumor is the statement that All
sahka, located at the junction of the
North Fork and the main Clear
water, 40 miles above Lewiston, is
being considered as site for the
mill. The rumors have followed re-
peated reports of the past eighteen
months that experience at Elk River
has disclosed the district is too high
for the drying of lumber and that
the dismantling of the plant is the
only logical solution of the matter.
The Elk River mill is at the ter
minus of the St. Maries branch of
the Milwaukee road and the latter
has made surveys down Elk creek
to the North Fork. If Ahsahka is
selected as the site for the mill,
statement is made the road will be
Immediately extended to that point.
The Potlatch company is an auxiliary
for the Weyerhauser syndicate and
the latter several years ago secured
extensive land holdings at the
mouth of the North Fork aud
on the south side of the main
Clearwater at that point. Presum-
ably that is the site now under con-
temptation. The reports also deal
with the prospect of the mill being
brought to Lewiston.
The advices are also to the effect
that w. E. Laird, who has succeed
ed the late William Deary as head
of the Potlatch company, is now in
the east conferring with the Weyer-
hauser brothers relative to the Elk
River mill situation and will return
west with full authority to proceed
in accordance with the plans reached
at the conference. The Elk River
mill is a big plant, having about
two-thirds the capacity of that o1
the Potlatch mill, which is said to be
the largest in the western country

The foregoing piece of murdered

Sun under the date of November
21st. expounded by a should be
leading light OF the community in
which he resides. The Editor of
the Gazette is very much surprised
at this person, who in all candor
should be man who could rise
above the people of his city and be
an example of refined citizenship
and a leader in social functions, one
who should be an example before
the young and rising generation in
which he is supposed to start out
with the highest of morals and a
respect for the future of this great
commonwealth. Instead of the man
pictured in the above we find any
thing else. He is one when the
students of the visiting towns see him
wonder what that is running loose
on the Basket Ball court. If the
man will take unto himself a few
thoughts as to what the world thinks
of man who will always try to
buldose his way through in every
thing he has any thing to do with.
he will cool down and see where he
has placed himself in the minds of
the higher thinking people. After
this when you undertake to write an
an article for the press please write
something more refined for the
pupils of your school to read than
an article of vulgar phrases contain

could be hurled at any person.
