To the Editor of the Bonners Ferry

Knowing that few people who know

CARDS my work in the settlement of
affairs with the old county contained
in your conglomeration of misrepre-

Gus that you should publish this state
ment which will prove that you have
no knowledge whatever of your sub
ject, or are guilty of wilful and per
verse mendacity or both.
l do not wish to flatter you by sug-
costing that you had aught to do with
the drafting of the County Division
bill, but perhaps it is not expecting
too much to presume that you knew
something of it's provisions, since a
draft of it was published in your Of
fee, prior to its passage; therefore
you should know when it was pro-
vided that the accountants were to be-
gin their work, and also that it could
not be concluded until after the 18th
of July.
Had been able to establish point
of contact between the accountant APP
pointed by the republican board of
county commissioners of Bonner coun-

H. w. Peckenpaugh, Bonners Ferry,
Idaho:
Dear Sir-Your letter just reed

the wrong kind of advertising, but
usually there is some one who thinks

thinks he is acting wise when he butts
in.

Of us worked together right along as
we thought that was the better way,
for what one might not think of the
other would.
We began our work on the first of
March and finished our work on the
23d of April and final settlement was
made few days later.
The time you were at it was not
any too long for people in both coun-
ties should realize that it is work
that should not be done in a hurried
and careless manner for the few dol
lars of salary might mean several
hundred dollars the other way in omis-
sions that might occur through hasty
work
The county commissioners allowed
us only SIS per day and expenses but
we should have had $40 per day.
Trusting that | have answered your
questions, l remain, Very truly yours,
l.. ID. Means,
Cashier.
1t took these gentlemen approx
mately sixty days (they are both bank
cashiers) to do the work for Kootenai
and Benewah counties, while | did it
alone in a little over that length of
time, yet was foolish enough to cut
my bill down to sixty days services
and expenses which have been paid.
You say or days or week is suf-
ficient. Oh, WE'LL
Your other statements are so pal
pably false as to make replies thereto
unnecessary. In conclusion, l was not

company has secured one Of the new

opening day. and will place this in the

seen by a representative Of THE

expected TO receive at an early date
a new car for demonstrating purposes.
but owing 10 the unusual pressure
on the part Of the Packard representa-
tives all over the country for models
OF the "Twin-Six." the delivery Of his
car had been delayed and he was fore
ed TO arrange with the Philadelphia
branch for the temporary use Of their
demonstration.
Mr.. Rosen also stated that VII
mington is giving excellent and sub
stantial evidence Of interest In the
latest Packard model Although he
has not yet opened the new branch
here, thirteen Of the new "Twin-SiX
models have been sold IN and around

outside An unusual condition In con

KISSELKARS ARE IN
Seven STYLES This Year

Just what the new KisselKars will
be has been kept very quiet, but one
fact seems positively known-the con-
tinuance of the sll-year car as the
leading feature Of the line. II Is said
that the body building department at
the Kissel factories has produced a
Sedan top design that is much hand
somer than the current one and also
has very material structural improve
ments.
It is also a good guess that the AZ
six, so very successful last season,
will be continued with practically no
chassis changes. The members of
the Kissel organization have always
been very enthusiastic over this car
and the owners seem to agree with
them
That KisselKar trucks will hereaf-
ter appear in seven sizes-adding one
model to the line-is the official an
nouncement from the Kissel factory.
The capacities will be 1000 pounds.

Even in Canada, where one would
look for a decrease instead Of an in

there has been an unprecedented de-
mand for cars. More Overlands have
been shipped and sold there so far this
