The Nezperce herald. (Nezperce, Idaho) 1900-1957, 1915-04-15

Tuesday of this week, Wm. Harb
ke was searching for stray horse
in the Russell section, and was max
ing inquiry of his neighbors about
the estray, and when he reached the
Levi Dixon home, about IL miles
north of Nezperce, Dixon appeared
and ordered Harbke from his prem
ises, emphasing his demand by sew
eral shots, directed at, or in close
proxemity where Harbke's person
was at he time located. :
After the second shot Harbke says
he was madly galloping in the same
direction in which Dixon had sent
his leaden pellets, and that either
Dixon sent two mere pellets, or, he
had overtaken the two formerly fired.
At any rate he was a-going.
The following day Harbke arrived
in town and had a warrant made out
charging Dixon with assault with a
dangerous weapon. Sheriff Paige
drove out shortly after dinner yes
terday and in the middle of the after
noon returned with Dixon, who put
up cash bond of $3.50 for his pre-
liminary hearing which has been set
to take place before Judge Roberts
in this city, next Wednesday. Dixon
then returned to his home.

Randall Fender Wedding.

Wednesday afternoon, April IA.
1915, John w. Randall and Miss
Katie E. Fender, giving their resi-
dence at the present time as old Ilo,
arrived in the city by automobile and
at once proceeded to the auditor S
Office and procure d a license to wed.
After having secured this document
Judge Roberts Office was sought,
where the twain we're joined in mar
riage.
The groom is quite we'll known to
most persons of this country, being
the father of several prominent farm
ers in the western part of Lewis coun-
ty, and is aged little more than 70
years. The bride is a recent arrival
from North Carolina, and her age is
given at 27. She has but a slight
acquaintance in the west, but appears
as one who will make home every
thing the elderly groom could expect
ahd we wish for them happy union.
Immediately after the short cere-
mony by the Judge the happy twain
departed for their home at Ilo, where
the groom has a home and plenty
for two-or more.

M. Kincaid of Ilo.

! Martin Sigman, for several years
rural mail carrier on route Q out of
Nezperce, and now resident of the
vicinity of Claremont, North Caro-
lined, was married on the 14th inst.
to Miss Wyke of that place. The
groom has numerous friends here
with whom The Herald extends con-
gratulations and best wishes to the
newly welded pair.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. Huber, who we're
seriously hurt in runaway accident
on April /, are making fair recovery
from their injuries and Mr.. Huber is.
again able to be about town. They
were driving west of town when their.
team SHE'D at a COW and toppled the
buggy over grade, throwing both
of them out. They were knocked
by the fall and Mr..
Huber was dragged several rods be-
fore he became disengaged from the
buggy. They we're severely bruised
about the head and body, but no
bones were broken and no permanent
injury sustained. The team came on
10 town where is was stopped, with
very little damage having been done
to the buggy, which had been jerked
pack on its wheels after dumping the
occupants.

game to the Kamiah reds at Kamiah
last Sunday, receiving shut out
and allowing S runs to the river
bunch. 1t was the first game of
the season for the Kamiah lads
and the third for the Nezpercers
but the latter we're shy one or two
of their best players and did not put
up as strong showing as they can.

VILLAGE ELECTION
NEAR AT HAND
Occurs Tuesday, April 27---Five Men
Called Citizens Ticket Already
Filed---Another Ticket
Also Expected.
Also Expected.

The time for the village election
is drawing near and April 9th is
less than two weeks distant, and it
should be the endeavor of everyone
to see to it that none but the most
competent and trustworthy men be
selected to transact our business for
US, and see that we don t live too fast,
leave nothing undone, that which
should be done, and spend no more
money than we are in shape or able
to part with.
Already one ticket has been filed
and placed in the field to ask the suf-
frage of the people. This ticket is
styled by the promoters as "The
Citizens Ticket and is made up
of the following well-known men:
Chas. F. Thomas, John II. Lewis,
A. A. Hunter, O. A. Jeffreysand L.
J Rowe.
In glancing over the list, no one
can gainsay but they are repre-
sentative lot, yet it is hardly to be
expected that at this day and age
Nezperce people would be satisfied
to 60 to the polls with only one ticket
in the field to be voted upon, there
fore the wiser ones predict that there
will be opposition, but who will make
up the other crew, no one scenes to
care to predict or make public
guess.
In all probabilities there will be
only one polling place presumably
at the opera house.
The following election officers have
been selected to preside at the cleo
tion place and have charge of the
contest
Judges-Chancey Wallace, P. F.
Felt, Mrs J. T. Orbison.
Clerks-Mrs. Hess, Mrs. Joe Ivy.

LEWIS & ADJOINING COUNTIES
Lewiston started the ball a rolling

Lewiston started the ball rolling
Saturday night for base ball team
and Ed. L. Wiggin was chosen t.
. manage the bunch. The grounds
will be furnished by the lewiston
Charleston Transit company and To-
Gated convenient to their line. AL
ready they have began arranging a
| schedule of games for the season,
and Manager L. T. Mckee of the
| Nezperce nine has received a letter
asking for date with his aggrega-
ton.
Walter Brockman was in town
Monday from his farm north of
Greencreek, where he had been look
ing after his interests, and left Wed
nesday for his cattle ranch across the
Snake river over in Oregon. Wal
ter has about 700 acres in crop this
year on the prairie and and figures
on making cleanup this fall if
both yield and prices are good.
Cottonwood Chronicle
Arthur Brissette, and his four-pig
team started the first of the week
from Cottonwood for the San Francis
co exposition. "Frenchy' as he is
m ore familiarly known, stopped off
at Lewiston day, and intends to
show at all the larger towns and
cities before reaching Frisco, and it
goes without saying that Frenchy
and his pals will do some wonderful
advertising for this section of the
country, as he is provided with liter
ature setting forth the many ad-
vantages of this section of Idaho.
Kamiah, which already boasts a
large lumber mill and asbestos plant,
besides many minor industries, is
now working to secure creamery
during the present season, and it is
said the outlook for success on this
last venture is excellent. No doubt
a creamery would be paying prop
osition there, better locality could
hardly be found for one, and The
Herald is still of the opinion that a
creamery at Nezperce would pay
reasonable dividends. One of these
hill towns is going to put in plant
some of these days and make it pay,
too.
Sheriff Paige arrested Lew jack
son at Dayton, Wash, and brought
him to Nezperce Tuesday on war
rant charging him with obtaining
goods under false pretenses. Jack
son yesterday gave bond for his ap-
pearance for preliminary examination
before Probate Judge Roberts and
was released. The warrant on which
The arrest was made was issued Oct. |
Z, 1918, and the goods alleged to
have been falsely obtained we're pro-
cured some time prior to that date
while Jackson was landlord of the
Ramey hotel at vollmer. Jackson's
preliminary hearing vii be had before
Judge Roberts in this city next Sat-
,rday.

Some Fords.

Automobiles are getting as thick in
Nezperce and vicinity as grasshop-
pers used to be in Kansas. On last
Saturday the arrival of four new
Fords augmented the list. They
were brought in overland from Lew
iston by their purchasers, Chas.
Booth, Chas. F. Thomas, P. M.
Harding and Ralph Thomas all
making the trip without mishap over
rough, and in spots, muddy roads.
A fifth Ford accompanied the bunch
as far as 1lo, and was also brought
up by its owner, John Klaus, of that
city.
Two carloads of these machines
were received by the Lewiston
branch of the Western Hardware &
Implement Co. last week and all
we're in the hands of buyer by
Saturday. Another carload of
these popular cars will arrive in
Lewiston this week, and they will
doubtless be snapped up as fast as
they are ready for the road.

while ridiculing the notion OF horse
famine are convinced that farmers will
find it profitable to use good work
mares for breeding more stock.
As for hides, the situation is not
quite clear, but even here there has
been much gross eXaggeration From
two-ffths to less than one-half of the
leather used in this country is i'm
ported about 20 per cent of the for
eign hides coming from Argentina, 10
per cent from Canada, IL per cent
from Mexico, II per cent from Euro
pean Russia, and 1-2 per cent from
France. Since the outbreak of the
war, importations have shown a GER
tain falling off those for September,
1914, for example, being only 34,0O0,OOO
pounds, instead of 45,000,000 pounds
the year previous. There is however,
little reason to suppose that this de-
crease will be permanent or of suf-
llCltul llllDOI JdllIt W ilNtlN
scarcity. Since the great bulk of the
imported hides comes from countries
that are not at war, shipments are not
interfered with in any way, and the
only new factor to be considered is
mand by the warning countries.
1t is believed, however, that the
United States is now in better con-
dition to face such a situation than
for years past The tide, it seems, has
turned. Instead of live stock steadit
decreasing year after year, this year
for the first time, as has been said, all
classes show an appreciable increase
Including horses, mules, milch COWS
beef cattle, sheep and swine, there
were on January l, 1915, 7,712,0OO
more farm animals in the United
States than on January l, 1914. The
D24,O00, or 1.3 per cent. 1t is quite
true that this increase is not yet pro
portional to the increase in popula
ton, which is approximately 2 per
cent; but the fact that there is an in
crease, that the tide seems definitely
to have turned, is regarded as a suf-
fcient answer to alarming eXaggera-
ticns and misleading figures.

GERMANS SURPRISING
FRENCH LANGUAGE

Berlin, Jan. Correspondence of
The Associated Press)-The German
military authorities in AlsaceLorraine
have just decided to take steps for the
further suppression of the French Ian
guagein business affairs in the Reichs-
land, and the substitution of German
in its place. The commanders of the
four army corps stationed there have
issued a decree prohibiting the use of
French on signs and placards posted
on the streets, on the inner or outer
walls of shops or other places of bust
ness. Bills, receipts, letterheads, and
other business forms must be in the
German language; books must be kept
exclusively in that language, and only
in German money. Metz and several
towns, in upper Alsace are exempted
from the decree.

thus help the Fatherland during its
crisis.
The writer says, the children often
leave their homes after scanty break
fast, and take large package of bread
and butter with them to school. He de
clares the scholars often are unable
to consume the whole of the food and
thereupon throw it away in the streets.
He suggests the official prohibition of
the practice of bringing food to school
and also of the sale of all bread eX-
cept of war bread" made of rye and
potatoes to children for their immedi-
ate consumption. In this way he he
lieves a great wastage will be pre-
vented and at the same time the
authorities will be helped to meet the
marked shortage in wheat flour. He
concludes that the children will also
become more healthy if they are
forced to consume a proper breakfast
before leaving for school and that if
they are kept from eating during the
school hours, they will be ready to eat
at their midday meal more of the
vegetables they usually refuse and
which are so abundant in Germany.
