say further that others stood a
loss of diamond rings and other
similar property inveigled from
them by Wise.
It is also currently reported
that an uneasiness, an under
current of which was noticeable
here about three weeks ago, re-
garding the safe condition OF

by the fact that in some of the

WASHINGTON-NORTH II
Old Time Agitation Renewed By Memorials In

Olympia, Wash, Jan. 20
Senator R. A. Hutchinson of Spo-
kane introduced a memorial in
the senate today asking congress
that the eastern Washington
counties be joined with the Pan
handle of Idaho to form the new
state of Lincoln. The memoir
ial was reported out unanimous
ly by the committee on memorials
in favor of passage.
Senator Hutchinson also intro
duced a memoriai TO the Idaho
legislature asking that body to
join in a petition to congress,
creating the state of Lincoln out
of Kootenai, Shoshone, Bonner,
Latah and Nez Perce counties in
Idaho and the Fourth and Fifth
congressional districts Of Wash
ingtOn.
The Hutchinson memorial ask
ed congress to divide the state
at the summit of the Cascades
making the first, second and
third congressional districts the
slate Of Washington, and the
fourth and fifth congressional
districts into a new state.
This is the old state division
fight which has been heard in
Olympia for a number of years
Two years ago a similar measure
made its appearance but was no
given any considerable consider
alton.
The Hutchinson measure is ont
which the vets of western Wash
ington threatened to have intro
duced Immediately after the re.
cent election when the state vot
cd prohibition. The West Sid
gave a majority of approximate
| ly 1000 votes wet while the Eas
Side went dry. The fight in tn
senate will be inclined to the we
and dry issue again, it is pre-
dicted.

siract Office. A gentleman from
Boise has been in the city for
several days looking over the
ground with the idea of putting

dentist is talking of locating here.
Another gentleman is planning to
open a second undertaking par

These are only a few of the
new business establishments that
may be expected to open up here
with the advent of the new coun-

of any new factory coming here,
because of the locating of the
county seat here.
One result that is sure is the
raising of rents and the increase
