GOVERNOR HAwLEY TONIGHT.

Governor Hawley will speak at the

meeting has been advertised but two
days, owing to the short notice receiv-

every reason to believe he will be

the Clearwater is emphasized on every
hand and the mining people up in the
Orogrande and Elk City districts are
anxious to see the road extended to
those sections. The sentiment Of the
mining men is indicated by the follow
ing copy of letter received from
Dwight B. Cornell, secretary and
treasurer of the StecKner Gold Min
ing company, owning properties in the
Orogrande district, the letter being
sent by Mr.. Cornell to George v. Ring,
forest supervisor at Grangeville. The
letter is as follows:
81 have visited Elk City and the
Orogande mining district in which /
am much interested. And, what is
more, we must all be interested in
getting a good state highway from
Sites into Elk City besides an extern
sion of railway. The people living
in this section should be equally in
terested in establishing road. We
do not wish to have it understood that
there is no road but it is almost equal
to none. The journey from Sites to
Elk City is not only costly but it takes
great deal of time, and at the present
time is a strain on ones nerves.
!" As we understand It, it has cost
the nation this season about 100000
to fight fires. / noticed millions
of feet of timber, of course dead, that
could be turned into lumber which, of
course, would be second or third grade,
but would be available for many uses.
When nation spends about $25, 900 to
carry the mail and parcel post to Elk
City, we people think it is about time
that all should awaken to the idea that
there must be road established with
water grade along Clearwater river.
"The county Of Idano (you win see
by the state engineers report) con-
tains an immense amount Of mineral.
The present facilities are holding back
its development work and if q highway
and railroad can be extended to Elk
City, the results cannot help but be
wonderful. There are many mines of
gold, silver and lead that should be
mined but it is very expensive to han
die machinery, etc.
"By the general tone of converse
ton of the principal men of that To-
cality, they have confidence that the
highway road suitable for automobiles
will be established from Sites to Elk
City next year. But write you in the
interests of our company to ask you to
use the necessary means to bring about
this improvement.
"Our company is going forward re-
CARELESS of these conditions to do all
we can. We have the timber, the
water power and we propose to put in
sawmill; soon after that an electric
plant for supplying power for all the
surrounding country, at least fifteen
miles each way. We are now nego-
tiating for stamp mill.
eff you will push your bill through
for a state highway from Sites to Elk
City, we will do all in our power to
make known the true conditions of
Idaho county to the eastern repre-
sentatives in congress as we'll as in
the senate to bring about results and
save the millions of feet of timber
that is now going to waste in the ma
tional reserve

DIED In FATHERS ARMS

DOVER, Jan. 49, A statement of
facts, concerning the pathetic death of
Henry Earl, the 16-year-old son of Cap
t in Dunham Earl, who died on Tuesday
morning, as the result of being caught
with his father in the gale which blew
over the Delaware Bay and river last
Monday night, was received here yes

Captain Earl and his son had spent
the day claiming between Kits Ham
mock and Bowers Beach, at no time
being more than a mile from shore.
Monday evening, Captain Earl finding
that he could not land at any port near.
by, anchored off Bowers Beach, near
the mouth of Murderkill River. Because
of the high winds and waves the boat
broke anchor and drifted across the bay
to near Dias creek on the Jersey shore,
where it grounded.
Having lost his sails and rigging,
Captain Earl started ashore that even
ing with his son. All the blankets and
coverings in the boat were pressed into
service for keeping the two warm, they
being compelled to remain on the mead
ows the entire night, not knowing they
were near habitual land.
Early Tuesday morning, Captain Earl
sighted farmhouse for which he started
and reached and securing help, returned
for his son. They found him alive and
he said he was feeling very well. "
The father took the boy in his arms and
started for the farmhouse, but before
they had reached the house, the son died
in his fathers arms.
Captain Earl is suffering severe pains
from frost-bitten feet, hands and ears.
One ear may have to be amputated.
The remains of young Earl were buried
in Millville, N. j., today.

Is a Rest Room Needed?

The members of the Century Club
and the Grange are trying to decide
whether it is worth while. to continue
the Rest Room for a longer period or
if it will be best to discontinue it. So
many complaints have been heard that
the ladies from the country and school
children had no place to wait when
necessary, that the members of the two
organizations took it upon themselves
to rent the room adjoining Mr.. Purnell
McWhorter's residence and furnish it,
for the good of the public Now it ap-
pears that people do not want the Rest
Room as badly as they thought they
did, and it is not patronized to such a
degree that the ladies feel warranted in
taking upon themselves the expense Of
renting the room for a longer time un-
less it is wanted and needed. Can not
some of the country people give ex-
preston to their wishes and thoughts
on the subject through the columns of
the Transcript or New Era?
