CLEARWATER COUNTY EXHIBIT
WINS FIRST PRIZE AT LEWISTON

There is joy in Clearwater county
this week. Our exhibit won at the
Lewiston fair. 1t was awarded first
prize, $3.50 in gold, for the best coun-
ty or district display, and won in one
of the stiffest contests ever pulled off
in the Northwest. 1t outclassed the
wonderful display of j. F. Brown re-
presenting the Kendrick district, an
exhibit that has won this year at Spo-
kane and Latah county fairs. Only
those who have seen the Kendrick ex-
hibit can appreciate the full meaning
of the victory at Lewiston.
There was difficulty in making the
decision. The judges were unable to
arrive at decision all Wednesday
afternoon. 1t is said it was neces-
sary to call in fourth judge and both
the Kendrick and the Clearwater coun-
ty exhibits were re-scored. Clear
water county was finally awarded first
honor, and there has been joy in the
hearts of the Clearwater crowd from
that moment. 1t was signal vic
tory, worth much as an advertisement
for our county, and will no doubt
arouse the interest needed to hereaf-
ter insure the gathering and prepara-
tion of the finest products of our en-
tire county.
The editor of the Clearwater Repub-
lican takes justifiable pride in the
fact that we had something to do with
the winning Of the prize. We feel
that it has been worth while to spend
time gathering and preparing grains
and grasses. No doubt the same feel
ing of pride and gratfcaton will come
to Frank Kalosa of Peck, and Mr..
Long Of Greer, and to George Alte-
neder and T. j. LaForest, one an ex-
pert gardener and the other an expert
fruit and berry grower, both of Oro-
fino. It is the feeling that will come
to every citizen of the county who
had bundle Of grain, a plate Of
fruit, or a vegetable in the Clearwat-
er county prize winning display at the
Lewiston fair.
The Clearwater county exhibit was
the local fair boiled down and COM
bined into one display, tastily and
autifully arranged in one booth 27
feet wide with wings nine feet deep.
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-10-02

One third of this space was devoted to
fruits, one-third to sheaf grain, while
the west wing was used for the grass
display shown at the local fair by P.
l.. Orcutt.
1t was decided late Thursday at the
close of the Clearw ater county fair to
send an exhibit to Lewiston, and Joe
Molloy was selected as a good man to
look after it. Ed Brammer kindly
consented to assist Mr.. Molloy, and
the editor of the Republican agreed
to look after the display of sheaf
grain and grasses. By hard work,
and putting in most Of Monday night,
the Clearwater booth was ready when
the fair opened Tuesday. noon. That
morning the Lewiston Tribune said:
"The Clearwater county exhibit is
wonder. And it merited that
compliment. 1t was indeed fine,
credit to any county in the world, and
the people of the county have reason
to be proud of the victory.
To no one person is due the credit
for winning. Clearwater county won
because many people joined in the
work, laboring in unity to common
end. Had we lost the fault would
not have been in what our county
raises, or the quality of our products,
but in the neglect of the people gener-
ally to save their best samples and
exhibit them. 1t remained for few
to take the iniative and do the work.
Let us see that next year everybody
takes an interest. Let us show the
world that Clearwater county soil
stands at the top of the list, and thus
induce good settlers to come here and
help develope our great county.
The victory at Lewiston over the
best that Latah county can produce
shows that Clearwater county need not
take back seat in any company.
After the expense of the exhibit
are paid the balance from the Lewis
ton prize will go to the Clearwater
county fair association.
!. An application has been received
for the exhibit to go to the Panama
exposition at San Francisco as a part
of the Idaho exhibit. This shows
what others think of the Clearwater
county exhibit.

J. p. HARLAN MAKES
HIS POSITION PLAIN

So with some other individual claims
held by private persons which come
within my knowledge, claims that the
present owners will gladly take less
than the assessed valuation for. Many
of these claims may be sold at a sacri-
fee, and whom will it benefit?
l have said that l believed in some
particular instances, taken by compar-
ison, that some farmes have been as
sessed too low, and many too high.
Now take your present pink slips,
Danish all prejudice and be honest
about it. Will all the farmers and
all other real estate owners take less
for their holdi, gs than the assessed
valuation? S me may. The major
ity will not.
Is it right to assess you at more
than you are willing to sell? Are
you not entitled to ask and receive
more? But if you are assessed more
than you are wiling to take is it
right you should be assessed SO high?
Who is not wiling to concede to the
timber owner the same fair treatment
asked and expected for oneself?
In the next issue of this paper !
will go further into this subject and
explain in detail my ideas of square
deal in the matter of taxation, and
show how it may be attained.
shall also discuss the cruise; its
merits and demerits; its usefulness
and uselessness.
Has not this matter Of taxation
been more or less Of bugaboo that
most of us have not cared to tackle
for fear one might get ones politi-
cal block knocked off? Is it not the
political drum on which we have
striven to dance without making q
noise?
In the issues following I propose
taking up the subject Of good roads,
subject in which no one individual
has monopoly. In the issue fol-
lowing l will discuss the subject of
economy consistent with efficiency.
There is room here to make plenty
Of noise. In all these subjects one
can hue to the line without fear or
favor. do not propose to please
every one. l wish to make myself
clear, aiming at fairness, need and
economy.

DENOUNCE
LAKE GANG METHODS

DIR. o. C. Keller Of Lewiston was
some years ago elected as coroner in
Latah county on the democratic
ticket. During that time he acquired
title to 320 acres of timber land in
Clearwater county. While in Lewis
ton this week we met the doctor and
he told us that his timber in Clear
water county was this year assessed
at $4,000. II will take 50, 800 for
the property, and be glad to do so, !"
he said. Then he added:
II will pay $500 commission to any
one making the sale. In other words
l will be glad to sell this half section
for 1000. | made affidavit to these
facts and my offer is on file with the
Clearwater county board. !"
Any protest will be, according to
the gang, a sure sign of friendship

The total bonded indebtedness at
that time was $50, 600, and Nez Perce
county assumed the balance. Lewis
county had paid interest on the propor-
tion assumed by that county, but
Clearwater county has not, so when
the Clearwater bonds are payable in
November, 1915, the total will reach
about $21, 200.
We thought Clearwater county did
MT owe any bonds. How do the tax
payers like the business management

Macon. Ga. March l9.-George StalllnSs.
manager Of the Boston National League

had obtained an injunction 20 prevent
agents OF the Federal League from hav-
ing communication with any member of
the Boston club. The injunction was OBJ

Of Georgia and attempts to get my play
ers away from me, I'll put him in jail as
sure as he gets off train said Stallinss.
THE Georgia labor contract law IS eN-
plicit on that point When an employ CT

ne attempts TO get the employe under
contract to violate that contract with a
view to taking employment with another

Governor Tener Changes
Front and Says There Is
Room for Outlaws.
rBv Telegraph to The Tribune.

Pittsburgh, March 10. - Developments
during the last week strongly indicate
that organized baseball and the Federal
League have buried the hatchet Further
confirmation OF the report came TO hand
to-day, when Governor John *. Tener,

denly changed front, and in conversation
with Charles y. Hendrickson state treas

for a third league and ! can't see why
they should not get along Take Pitts

room i'm that city for two clubs.

and there is no reason why the Federal

Another development which lend.

;hst President Gilmore Of the Federal
Leagu has within the last three days not
only announced publicly that no more
raids would be made on organized base
ball. but has instructed all clubs in the
baby circuit to that effect. This fact was
admitted by a high official of the local
