MAYOR

has been no talk of candidates
for any of the other city Offices
as yet but it is presumed that C.
S. Flint and Charles r. Schultz
will be candidates to succeed
themselves as treasurer and city
clerk respectively and if they de-
eide TO do so it IS doubtful if
there would be any serious op-
position. AS far as we know
the only licensed engineer in the
city and therefore the only per-
son eligible to the Office Of city
engineer is the present incum-
bent, j. b. Sargent, jr. The chief
of police, water commissioner
and street commissioner are ap-
pointed by the mayor and con-
lirmed by the council but the
question as to who is to be ap-
pointed to these positions, es-
pecially that of chief of police,
Will enter to a great extent into
the election of the mayor.
SO far there has been very
little talk in regard to candidates
for councilmen from the differ
ent wards and the little that we
have heard has been confined to
the third ward In that ward
the present councilman, William
Biteman, has been talked Of for
reelection but it is not known
whether he will be a candidate
lor not. The names of A. p. Bunl
and p. c.. Mashburn have also
been mentioned but Mr.. Mash
burn stated positively that n,
would not accept the position.
The coming year will be a yer,
, important one in the affairs O.
the city as there is no question
that something will have to b,
done, and that at once, about tn,
city's supply of water. Thi,
being the case, r. is very i'm.
portant that gooG, reliable mel
and men of good Judgment an'
of business ability be placed OF

Another Factory To
Locate Here
BOX FACTORY AND SHINGLE MILL
Plant Will Employ About Forty Men---SItC Has
Been Selected

According to an item which ap-
peared in the New West Trade in
it's issue of March 13, st. Maries
is to have another box factory.
The name Of the firm that is pro-
posing to put up the factory is
the w. C. X. Box Factory and has
until recently operated a box fac
tory and shingle mill at Orient,
Washington.
According to the item in ques-
tion the company has disposed of
its plant at Orient and is coming
10 this city and will install a
much larger plant. The plant
to be put in here will be box
factory and shingle mill cOmbin-
ed and will employ from forty to
fifty men.
Representatives of this COM
pany were in st. STaries in De-
cember looking over the city. At
that time il was stated that they
fully intended to locate their
plant here and had secured site.
At that time, however, they re-
quested that the newspapers
make no mention of their visit
or their intention to install a
plant here as publicity at that
time might seriously interfere
with their plans and a business
deal that was then pending, pre-
sumably the disposal of their
plant at Orient.
However, they gave assurance
at that time that they fully in
tended to locate their plant here
and stated that they had secured
site but gave no intimation as
to where the site was located. AS
nothing had been heard from
them since that zine those who
had been informed Of their in
tention had supposed that tho
project had been abandoned but
the item in the New West Trad,
would indicate that this was moi
the fact and that the factory is
an assured thing for this city.
The people of ST. Maries arr
elways glad to welcome any new
enterprise that promises to in
crease its payroll, especially il
a case like the present where M
bonus or assistance is asked an'
they will give the company all o
the encouragement possible.
The people certainly have gOO'
reason to congratulate themsel
YES over the outlook for the cit.
and the prospects for Increase
business, having since last De
cember secured one box factor
which will be in operation by tn
first of May, the county seat, an
now the location of another bo
factory and shingle mill cOmbin
ed These together with tn
fact that the present mills az
all running and promise to con
linue at their fullest capacit
certainly promise a very busy an
prosperous season for the city.

Krause was deeply affected but re- piled in the words; q cannot tell" and refused to state whether these words meant that he knew or did not know or a refusal to tell. It is coming to be believed that Krause is not guilty of half the crimes which had been laid to his charge although the conviction is strong that he did do away with Christie and Ole Moe at least. Dur ing all his life he has been noted as a silent, taciturn individual and he is living up to that reputation in jail. Mrs. Christie seemed to be deeply moved while visiting him.
