JUSTICE HUGHES. REFUSAL.

Justice Hughes letter to the secre-
tary of Nebraska is curt, clear and
emphatic. Il hereby notify you that
/ decline the nomination made by
this petition or similar petitions, and
request that my name shall not he
placed upon the ballots of such pri-
mary election
This ought to end the Nebraska
nonsense and all similar nonsense. II
Justice Hughes were candidate for
president he would say so. II he
had even the remotest intention OF
accepting the republican nomination
or of submitting to CONSUMPTION, he
would hae retired from the United
States supreme court and made his
plans accordingly, When he sought
the republican nomination in 1908
he had no hesitation in announcing
his candidacy, and if the republican
leaders had had sense and courage
enough to override Roosevelt's impu-
dent dictation, MIR, Hughes would
probably be president of the United
States today.
The time to draft Charles e.
Hughes was then. The republican
politicians who are clamoring for
him now and asking to smear the
bench Of the United states supreme
court with partisan politics have no
more love for Justice Hughes than
they had in 1903. But they think
he would he a safe stepping-stone
from which they could climb into
local office. If they had him Tor
president they would hate him as
bitterly as they hate Woodrow VIII
son and they would have as httie
sympathy with his policies.-NeW

ANOTHER SECRET SOLVED

! n MERICANS have at last
X succeeded in solving the
secret of an extremely
fine quality of steel, for a sup
ply of which our manufacture
ers have been forced hitherto
to depend on the Krupp works
iii Europe.
Before the great war it was
customary to attribute to Ger.
many a sort of supernatural
genius in such matters as the
foregoing. What's the use?"
that was the typical Ameri-
can attitude. The truth is,
American scientists can do all
that German scientists can do,
if given equal incentive and.
opportunity,
This country is flooded with
young lawyers who hardly
earn their office rent; but
there are very, very few de-
voting their lives to solving ma.
ture's secrets as applied to
modern industries, Yet, in
view of the vast interests in
volved, the latter ought to
have by far the greater prizes
to offer of the two professions.
Steel makers have called at
tcntion to the truth of these
things, If others of our great
industries desire to hold ad-
tanced positions after the
close of the great war, they,
too. will have to make it worth
while for young Americans of
the finest intellectual power to-
devote their lives to industrial
research work.-BoStOn Post.

CUPID DOESN'T KEEP A SECRET
Prominent Local Couple Plan Sur
prise But News Leaks Out

The particulars of a secret mar
riage which occurred November 4th
and which the principals planned to
keep secret until New Years. leaked
out this week, so tonight the newly
weds, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Fl.
Woods, are inviting the public to a
grand free show at the Amazon
theater in honor Of the event.
Mr.. Woods was married in Libby.
Mont, A. L. Morris, justice of the
peace, performing the ceremony. The
bride was Miss Edith Nina Welty of
Escondido, CAL, who has been visit
ing at the home Of Mr.. Woods par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Lyons, for sew
eral weeks. She has made MANY
friends here during her short stay
Her family is one of the most prom
inent in Escondido and Mrs. Woods
talented and accomplished, was a
leader of the society set.
Mr.. Woods is one of the most
respected young men of this district
and is the proprietor of the Amazon
theater, considered one of the best
theaters of its kind in the Inland
Empire.
Only the immediate relatives OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Woods knew of their
marriage and the event would have
still been a secret but for the fact
that when the couple were in Libby
they were barely able to catch the
train for the return trip home and
their haste on the streets was not
iced and consequently the newspaper
men of that city scented a news
story.
The Herald gladly joins with the
hosts Of friends of Mr.. and Mrs
Woods in extending to them hearty
congratulations and wishes for a
long life of prosperity and happi-
ness.

ENCOURAGE
FRUIT GROWERS
Proposition on Foot to Establish Branch
Here Of Spokane Fruit Growers
Association
MORE FRUIT AT BETTER PRICES
Handle Strawberries, Potatoes, Apples
and Pears

Through the efforts of H. w. Tor
renee it is probable that branch
of the Spokane Fruit Growers AS
ISOLATION will be established in Bon
ners Ferry in the near future. If
such a branch is established it will
mean increased activity on the part
of fruit growers in the Kootenai
Valley and larger returns for their
produce.
Mr.. Terrence has been in CORE
spondence with Manager Parks, of
the Spokane Fruit Growers Associa-
ton for some time in regard to the
matter and it seems now that the
establishment of a branch here will
depend only upon whether or not
enough fruit growers will guarantee
to ship their fruit through such
branch office.
In handling strawberries the as
ISOLATION will have to depend upon
about 10000 crates, the Glen Mary
and Van Deman varieties being pre-
ferred for their shipping qualities.
Mr.. Terrence believes that between
400 and 500 crates can be raised to
the acre and states that at Cope
land he has so acres signed up. He
believes it will be no trouble to ship
from the Kootenai Valley many more
than 10000 crates. Last season the
Green Bluff district in Washington
shipped $4,000 crates, the season be-
ginning June and ending July FL.
The 10000 crates were fancy berries
and brought the producer $1.63. The
&c grade berries sold for 81. One
grower in the Green Bluffs district
sold $50 crates from a single acre
and his net profits we're $3.50.
Mr.. Terrence was formerly the
travelling inspector for the Spokane
Fruit Growers Association. He now
owns the old Annis place, six miles
down the river, where he has an
orchard Of ten acres. Products of
his trees are on display this week in
the show windows of the Table Sup
ply Co., Brody's Drug store and J.
w. Reid's Department store. The
display shows the Delicious, Black
Ben, Grimes, Golden and Spitzen-
burg varieties.
Mr.. Terrence has arranged for the
Spokane Fruit Growers Association
to handle two car loads of apples
from this district or a straight com
mission basis. The fruit comes from
the orchards of Mr.. Terrence, o. H.
Campbell, Tony Brown and N. r.
Selover.
If a branch Office is established
here Mr.. Terrence figures that be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 boxes of
apples will be shipped out of this
district next year. All fruit will be
graded and be standard pack and the
fruit growers will have the same ad-
vantage in the marketing of their
produce as any other district in the
Northwest. Warehouses would likely
be established at Copeland and Port
hill.
AL fruit growers interested il
, the proposition are requested to reg
lister at ]. w. Reid's store or senC
their names to w. H. Terrence o.

FEAR MAINS
WILL FREEZE
Water Company Says 1t Will Not Be
Responsible For Eaton Mains
This Winter
LESSEN BUILDING RESTRICTIONS
Councilmen Discuss Amendment Of
Strict Fire Ordinance

The city dads spent the major
portion of the Tuesday night meet
ing in the discussing Of a situation
in which the town finds itself in
volved with the Bonner Water &
Light company. At this meeting At
torney S. E. Henry, for the Bonner
Water & Light Co., gave written
notice that the company would not
be responsible for the freezing of its
mains along a part of Main street,
Eaton.
A few weeks ago the city reduced
the grade of Main street, Eaton, in
front of the Gleed, Callahan proper
ties and to the Eaton corner and it is
understood that the water company
claims that so much dirt was re-
moved that its water pipes will now
have no protection from the cold
weather. Manager Gale asked for
5000 damages from the city, claim
ing that it would cost this much or
more to sink the water mains as far
below the surface as they were be-
fore the grading was done. The city
took no action towards granting Man
ager Gales request, some of the
members of the town board contend
ing that grades had never been es-
tablished on Main street, Eaton, and
that the city had the right to fill or
reduce grades and that the water
company should have demanded the
establishing Of grades before it laid
its water mains. On the part Of
the city it is contended that if the
water mains had been sunk to the
right depth the recent grading done
would never result in any damage.
Manager Gale contends that he has
rcsunk his mains on the street in
question several times and he feels
that he is entitled to damages sufi-
cient to pay for the relaying Of the
mains now necessary.
On motion the town board in
structed City Attorneys Bottum &
Wilson to take up the matter with
the Bonner Water & Light company
and find out if the notice presented
to the council meant that in case the
pipes froze this winter and the water
company was unable to furnish wa
ter to it's patrons in the vicinity af-
fected, the water company would
start suit for recovery of its loss of
rentals and the damages to its pipes
The council also discussed the adj
visibility of taking some of the
teeth out of fire ordinance No. So
which provides for fire limit and
restricts the building of wood struc-
lures in the district. 1t was proposed
to change the ordinance so as to al
low owners of wooden buildings to
build onto their structures with wood
and sheet iron.
At the adjourned meeting held last
evening the proposed ordinance was
passed and the same is published
elsewhere in this paper. The ma
tcrial change in the ordinance al
lows the owner Of present frame
buildings to build onto such buildings
if a permit is secured from the boarc
of trustees upon four-ffths vote.
The trustees worked last night IN
til nearly midnight upon schedule
of rates for water, power and light
which the town will ask the Idaho
State Utilities Commission to have
