That the Northwestern Livestock

ton, is of immense benefit to the stock
men and farmers of the northwest in
general and northern Idaho in particu-
lar, is demonstrated fact. Recogniz-

suit. A committee has been appointed

FRIENDS IN NEED.
Charitable Citixens Tender Assistanc,
To Unfortunate Family.

A destitute family in the west end of
the city have every reason for feeling
grateful to Grangeville citizens for
their charity which was exemplified
this week. The family came here from
the Whitebird section several weeks ago
and were skimping along with what
little money they had saved, intending
to leave for their former home in Colo.
RADIO when sufficient means had been
accumulated.
The wife and mother was taken seri.
ously i'll and to those who lived in that
section OF the city fell the duty of
looking after them. The people were
living in tent at the time and through
the kindness of Martin H. Baulch, they
were moved into one of his tenans hous-
es. While everything possible was done
to- save the woman's life, the disease
had gained such headway that death
resulted after a short illness. The
family was left destituted and Mes
danes James Murphy and Fred Noyes
secured aid for them. Over 800 was
secured by these excellent ladies
through canvass of the business Sec
tion OF the city and certain sections
OF the resident portion. The family
left for Colorado Monday, the remains
OF the dead woman also being shipped
to her old home, the fulfillment of a
dying request. 1t is said the man, had
he been paid what was due him for
labor performed for certain person in
Idaho county, would not have had to
rely upon charity in the time of need
that Imprisonment for debt would not
be bad law after all.

When that mob came to the house on
successive visits l tried every possible
way to show the leaders that their acts
were illegal and pleaded with them to

with the mob to disband and told the
men that our baby was very i'll she was
jeered and hooted.''
Mr.. Casady is especially bitter to-
ward Major F. A. Fem, supervisor of
the forest reserves at Kooskia, who, it
is said, was one Of the ringleaders in
the affair. In referring to Major Fem
Mr.. Casady authorized the following:
Roasts Major Fem.
Major Fem was the ringleader in
this outrage man who boasts that
he is law-abiding, law-respecting citi.
zen, and who took an oath that he
would UNFOLD the law. He was the loud
mouthed agitator. Major Fem, through
his position as forest supervisor, dis
bursting large sums of money annually
in that section, has a large influence.
That influence was not used on the side
of law and decency, but instead was
used to assemble mob to deny an
American citizen the rights that the
laws of the land give him-laws that
make it possible to have government
that can give position to Major Fem.
If ] understand the temper of the pre-
sent national administration it does not
want outlaws or criminals holding of
flee. -
The affair has created widespread in
terest throughout the county. Mr..
Casady is insistent that the participants
be reproved by the law for their ac-
tions. Accompanied by Mr.. Casady,
Sheriff Eimers and Prosecuting At
torney Hattabaugh left yesterday for
Kooskia to conduct an investigation.
The outcome of this step by the autho-
rites is awaited with interest.
