Council Hears
Engineers Report

The city council held a special
meeting Thursday to listen to the
report and recommendation of
Engineer Jaqueth on the water
question. He reported against
using Cedar creek for storage
purposes and recommended the
building of an intake dam at n
probable cost of SlO50.OO.
In regard to Thorn creek he
reported the present site of the
dam as the best that could be
found. He reported in favor or
reinforcing the present dam and
building it higher so as to fur
nish storage capacity sufficient
to supply the city for thirty days.
Such a dam would cost about
So, 100000 He stated that Thorn
creek at present furnished all the
water that the pipe line could
take care of and in order to in
crease the flow it would be neces-
sary TO put i'm another eight or
ten inch pipe, ten inch preferred
from the dam TO the ST. Maries
river. This he estimated would
cost Slf,296.OO.
He also advised the putting in
of an auxiliary pumping station
on the st. Joe river. This would
cost, not to exceed s275O without
d liltering plant. He also rec
commended a steel main laid east
and west along Main avenue at
a cost of $4,000 and recommends
cd thath meters be put in at an
estimated cost of about $4,000.
The entire cost of the improve
ments which he recommended
would be about $4,000. and. in
his opinion this would not in
sure water for a .1ty very much
larger than this is now. The
council decided to follow the
recommendations of the engin-
eer and will soon submit to the
voters proposition to bond the
city for that amount to improve
the water system. Mr.. Jaqueth
believes hat, With the meters in
stalled, the earnings of the sys-
tenn will take care of its running
expenses and take care Of the in
= tcrest and sinking funds for the
; bonds. In other words that the
] system will pay for itself.

Rev. A. Monroe, pastor Of the
Methodist church, gave the invO-
cation, which was followed by a
song by the graduating ss.The
salulatery was given by Mr..
Harry Johnston, his subject being
"The Right of the United States
to Supply Belligerents with Mu-
nitions of War. His rendition
was good and the manner in
which he handled his subject
show careful preparation and
hard work ON his part. The
next number on the program was
solo by Mr.. J. w. Walker en-
titled "Davey Jones Locker" This

, Under the conditions of the
contract under which the records
We're copied the work was to be
done for actual cost and was
guaranteed not to exceed seven
and eight cents. The total bills
submitted to the county for DO
ing the work amounts to about
seven thousand dollars and is
seven hundred dollars less than
the maximum of seven and eigh.
cents per folio. I'm making the
settlement this county took over
some blank books which will be
needed in keeping the records and
the cost of them is included in
the total charge of sewn thou
sand dollars.
From all rports this county
has good reason TO feel pleased
over the outcome Of the tran
scribing Of the records, not only
as to the quality of the work
but the prices paid. It is doubt
ful if any new county has sue
ceeded i'm getting the work done
cheaper and in Boundary county,
lat least, il is costing nearly twice
the amount paid here, propor-
tionately.

Eighth Grade

In spite of the rainy evening
there was a large crowd at the
Eighth Grade commencement eX-
ercises last evening. Every seat
in the high school auditorium
was occupied and many had to
stand throughout the entertain
ment. The stage was hand
someIy decorated for the occasion.
In the rear of the stage appear

Promptly at eight o'clock the

Record Official
County Paper
is AWARDED A TWOzYEAR CONTRACT
Was Lowest Bidder. Commissioners Allow Treas
urer and Probate Judge Clerks

The Record has the honor of
being the first official paper of
the new county of Benewah. 1t
was made such by a resolution
passed by the board of county
commissioners at a meeting held
yesterday. The commissioners
had advertised for bids for pub
fishing the proceedings, notices,
etc, and for doing the printing
for the county for the coming
two years and bids were submit
ted by the Record, the Gazette
and the Fleischauer Printing Co.
of this city. The Plummer Re-
porter, the only other printing
establishment in the county, did
not put in a bid.
The three bids were very close
together. The bid of the Gazette
for publishing commissioners
proceedings was lower that that
of the Record but the Record S
bid on job work was the lowest
of the three. After carefully
considering and figuring ON the
different items of the bids, the
commissioners decided that the
Records bid was the lowest and
best and so awarded the contract.
The Record has the reputation
Of being the best newspaper in
the county. 1t gives the news
and all of the news and now that
it is the official paper of the coun-
ty and will give in detail the pro-
ceedings of The commissioners
it becomes of more value to its
readers. I'm fact the farmers and
other residents of the county who
wish to keep posted ON what is
going on in the county and how
their money is being spent cam
not afford to be without it.
Other business transacted by
the commissioners yesterday was
the awarding of the care of Tho
county poor to w. II. Zeiglitg al
the rate of $3.50 per week for
board, laundry, and care. The
commissioners also passed a
resolution allowing County
Treasurer Davis a clerk at S75,
per month and the probate judge
IA stenographer at the same salary
per month.

District Court
COnveneS TUESDAY,
SEVERAL IMPORTANT CRIMINAL CASE
Il. {. Jones to Be Tried for SeCOnd-Deeree Murder.
Two Cases Against City

The first term of the district
court to be held i'm this county
will be held next week, opening
Tuesday, with Judge Dunn pre-
siding. No jury has been drawnl
i'm the county yet and a speciai'
Nenire will be issued by Judge
Dunn to secure jurymen to try
the different eases. The jury
term will not be a long one even
if all of the cases ON the ealen-
dar are tried. There are four
teen criminal cases ON the cal
ndar but of these several have
pdicatd am intention to plead
guilty SO that the indications are
that not over one half of those
appearing will have TO be tried.
BY far the most important case
on the criminal calendar is that
of the State of Idaho VS.. II. c..
Jones, charged with second de-
gree murder This case was in
herited from KOOtenai county haV
ing arisen before the division or
the county. Jones, who was a
homesleadcr rsiding near pedie
i'm what is now Benewah county,
is accused of killing a man at his
cabin last December. Jones ana
his victim and the slain mans
brother had been drinking and, i'm
the course of a drunken row
Jones is accused of shooting his
man. N. ID. Wernelte, county
attorney of Kootenai county, has
handled the case so far and will
probably have charge for the
State at the trial.
In addition to This, there are
three cases of embezzlcmcnt ana
one for attempted rape which will
probably be tried at this term.
The other cases are of minor inn
portancc or the Attendants have
signiled their intention of plead
ing guilty and they are practically
all bootlegging cases.
There are lhirty-iive civil cases
n all appearing on the calendar
but of these only a small proper
lion are ready for trial before g
Iiury and it is very probable thai
even some of the cases now )r
he jury calendar will not be tried
Among the cases set for trial arr
a number of condemnation suits
in which different logging rail
road companies are seeking {,
obtain a right of way.
Among other cases likely to b.
tried are two against the city o
lSt. Maries. Both of these ar
for damages arising out of tn
street improvements. In on
George LashbrOOk is suing tn
city for damages TO his propert
ON the corner of Seventh AM
Main by reason, as ne alleges. o
the excessive cut. Adiucovi
Bros. are plaintiffs i'm the othe
and seek to recover damage
from the city for injury to the {
& M. hotel, occasioned in tn
iame manner.

ing the "one-sided enforcement of

former strikers while those respon-
sible for the Ludlow massacre go un-

Republican national committeeman,
has asked Gov. Carlson to call off
the prosecution of the thousand in
dicted men. Stevenson, who had
charge of the Taft steamroIler in

today was remarkable for breaking
his known conservatism.
Stevenson declared John r. Law

not had a fair trial
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., does not
know the real facts about the Colo
RADIO situation and these conditions
would not exist if he knew them,"

Made Strong by Vinol.
Right here in Bennington we have

doing so much good for old people in
other parts of the country
Woodbridge, N. J.-"My Grandma
was recovering from the grippe and
was so weak she could hardly stand,
and as she keeps house for my father
and myself, she could not get around
at all She had taken cod liver oil
and many other medicines, but moth
ing seemed to do her any good At
last we heard OF Ninol and tried it,
and Grandma commenced to feel bet
ter right away and got strong very
soon, so she gets around as well as
ever, We all praise Vinol for it is a
splendid medicine" Myrtle II. Bum.
The reason Vinol is so successful
in restoring strength to the aged is
because of the rare combination Of
tonic iron, the curative medicinal
extractiyes of fresh Gods liyers, beef
peptone and mild native wine. 1t
supplies iron to the blood, quickens

notes proper assimilation of food,
and enriches the blood, and brings

Most dreaded of all are the tucan-
