fun began. 1t seems that some prac-

butter over to the Gambler boys, for
the ball never seemed to stop with

batted foul flies right slap into the

PLANNING new
WATER SOURCE
Bonner Water 4 Light Company May
Filter Kootenai River Water
Through Sand and Gravel
TO DIG SEVERAL LARGE WELLS
Would Mean Purified and Cerm-fres
Water For Local Use

The Bonner Water & Light COM
pany is having tests made along
the banks of the Kootenai River to
see if the lower stratas consist of
sand and gravel with a view of
changing the source of supply of
water for the town of Boomers. If
the lower stratas do consist of sand
and gravel, A. H. Featherstone, of
Wallace, Idaho, owner of the Bon
ner Water & Light company, will
secure a strip of land and sink a
large we'll or several wells and
pump water from these wells in the
future instead of pumping water
from the Kootenai river as has
been done for several years to secure
water for the townspeople.
The changing of the source of
the water supply has been agitated
for some time by the Boomers Ferry
board of health and the town coun-
Gil and the matter was brought to
the attention of the state utilities
commission. Mr.. Featherstone has
taken up the matter and has ex-
pressed himself as willing to do
anything within reason to satisfy
local people. The idea of installing
filtering system was first talked
of as was also the plan of taking
water from Snow creek. Both
plans have been dropped at present
on account of the large expenditure
which would be necessitated.
Local people seem to think that
the plan of filtering the water from
the Kootenai river through the
sand and gravel into large wells
would be satisfactory solution of
the problem providing the wells
are sunk far enough away from the
river so as to give sufficient filter
ing. Such a plan would do away
with all danger from germs and
impurities in the water which il
being consumed by the town.

DROPPED WRENCH IN MACHINE


Carl Thorseu, feeder OF one of
the planning machines at the plan
ing mill OF the Bonners Ferry
Lumber company, was severely cut
and bruised about the head and
hips early Sunday morning when
he dropped a wrench between a
couple of cog-wheels and was
struck by several pieces of steel and
broken machinery, which flew in
every direction. Pieces of the
machine were hurled through the
roof of the planning mill and Thor
sen considers himself lucky that
he escaped with his life. The
planning machine was damaged to
the extent of several hundred dol
lars. Thorsen is being cared for
at the Boomers Ferry hospital.

Start immigration Plans

A bunch of Boomers Ferry boost
ers met last evening and formulated
plans to cooperate with the Spo-
kane Chamber of Commerce in its
plan to bring several thousand new
farmers from eastern states to the
Inland Empire. A. V. Hemming
representing the Spokane Chamber
of Commerce, was present and ex-
planned the plan which was printed
in the Herald last week.
1t was decided to begin at once
to secure listings of land in this
district and a committee composed
of Charles O'Callaghan, J. B.
Brody, o. H. Campbell, J. w,
Reid and T. J. Jones was appointed
10 act as a board of censors upon
the listings given in order that nc
Misrepresentation might be made
in any respect.

JUDICIAL NOMINATIONS QUEER
Attorney General Seeks Ruling From
Supreme Court Upon the Law

The new election law makes
provision that voters at the primar
les shall vote for two candidates
for supreme and district court
judges, but whether this is manda-
tory or optional is a question which
has arisen and to determine this
phase Attorney General Peterson
has arranged friendly suit which
was commenced in the supreme
court last Monday to determine
whether or not the voter is forced
to vote for two candidates, the con-
tention being that the voter may
desire to vote for but one candi-
date and has no other choice. The
complication is worse in this county
than in any other district of the
state since the eighth judicial dis
trict has two judges and the law
provides that the voter at the pri-
mary shall vote for twice as many
candidates as there are positions to
fill. In this district it is probable
that there will not be over three
candidates in the primary and if
voters have to vote for four there
will be a fine mix-up.
Judge Dunn and Flynn will both
file for denomination on the non
partizan ticket prescribed as the
law by the last legislature. In the
case of the eighth judicial district
there could be four candidates
nominated in the primary and the
names of these four would go upon
the ballot and the two receiving
the highest vote at the general cleo
ton would be elected.

VonCanon Files Nomination

In last weeks issue we stated
that the rumor was current that
Assessor VonCanon would not be
a candidate to succeed himself.
We have just learned that Mr..
VonCanon has filed to succeed
himself. He was elected to the
office he now holds in 1908, and
remained in the Office as deputy
during Mr.. Defenbach's term and
was elected to succeed Mr.. Defen-
bach by the biggest vote cast for
any candidate in Bonner county at
the last general election. He is
thoroughly familiar with every de-
tail of the work pertaining to the
Office of assessor. In addition to
the regular routine work, with
very little additional cost to the
taxpayers, Mr.. VonCanon has,
within the past year, made up
complete set of ownership plats of
the county, showing the ownership
of every tract and legal subdivision
of land in the county. The plat is
a public record and will be of much
assistance to those who have occa-
sion to look up descriptions.

the interests of his candidacy for

cy and economy.

GETS OFF ON A TECHNICALLY
Indictment Against Denver P. DaytSa
Qusshsd on Faulty Jury Return

The indictment against Denver
P. Dayton by the recent grand jury
was quashed by Judge Flynn yes.
terday afternoon upon a showing
that the indictment did not show
return as TRUE bill" in accord
ance with the laws provision. Sec
ton 1865 of the Revised Statutes
provides: An indictment cannot
be found without the concurrence
of at least 10 grand jurors. When
so found it must be endorsed a
true bill and the endorsement
must be signed by the foremen of
the grand jury" Section 1880
provides that the court shall quash
an indictment when it is not found
endorsed and presented as pre-
scribed by the code.
The indictment was signed by J.
l. Monks as foreman of the grand
jury but was not endorsed "a true
bill' by some oversight and Judge
Flynn held that under the two sec
tons quoted he had no alternative
but to quash the indictments. Mo-
tons to quash the indictments
against the Davidsons and Parsons
of Meadow Creek, held on charges
of perjury, were denied by Judge
Flynn.
Dayton S indictment by the grand
jury charged him with extortion in
procuring a deed from Mrs. Jane
Hawthorne of Naples under threat
to have her son, Wilbur Haw-
thorne, arrested. Theruling will
be appealed to the supreme count
by County Attorney Costello.

Axel Anderson, who was killed
last Friday afternoon by the Great
Northern eastbound mail train

Rev. A. M. Skindlov, pastor Of
the Lutheran church.
Anderson was on his way home
from town and was walking on the
Great Northern railway tracks

McCrea Files Nomination Papers

Rob't S. McCrea, county aud
itor and clerk, filed his nomination
papers Wednesday of this week for
the Office he now holds subject to
the Republican primaries in Sep
TENDER. In Mr.. McCrea's case the
Herald is only too pleased to break
the established rule to favor no
one particular candidate in the pri-
mary election. Surely Mr.. Nc
Crea has earned the unanimous
support of every voter of the coun-
ty, regardless of party creeds,
through his faithful performance
of every duty and his uniform
treatment of every patron of his
office. Bob" is always ready to
60 out of his way to do anyone a
favor.
Mr.. McCrea is just completing
his first term. Unlike all other
county offices the clerk and record
er's term is for four years. Dur
ing Mr.. McCrea's administration
his Office has been entirely self
supporting and a surplus of about
$4,000 has been turned over to the
county treasury.
