had done his section of Clearwater

Mr.. Snyder emphasized the fact
that Weippe had great natural re-
sources, was the center of rich ag-

to become, he said. one of the best,
towns in north Idaho. The shutdown
does not take away any of the town S

Clearwater County Onions

Among the interesting exhibits at
the local fair was six onions of the
Early Flat Red variety, the half dozen
weighing six and a quarter pounds.
They were raised by Jas. Harp, who
is farming the VanAirsdale farm just
south of Teakean. There was no ap-
preciable difference in the size and
shape of the six onions, and when
placed in a row they measured twenty
seven and one half inches in diameter.
This is better than four and a half in
ches diameter per onion, which fol
size will make people take notice.

tors to the fair saw them, but they

All Work On Weippe Mill
Suspended Tuesday Night

Word reached Orofino Tuesday night
to the effect that all work on the big
saw mill at Weippe had been tempor-
arily closed, and that all but two or
three men discharged. For some time
the little town has been booming, the
population jumping to several hund-
red over night, and at this time sew
eral business buildings are under con-
struction. The town has bank, bar
ber shop or two, two hotels, three
general merchandise stores, and all
other lines that go with them, and the
prospect of the immediate construc-
tion of large saw mill, with a hun
dred men already employed, put life
and energy into that whole section.

ing the Clearwater county products at
Lewiston.
In tieing kendrick for first the
world is given notice that Clearwater
county products are of SO excellent
and varied a character as to place our
county in the forefront That is why
it pays to exhibit at Lewiston, and
why we should send exhibits to Spo-
kane and even to the big eastern land
shows. We do raise superior fruits
and vegetables, and our grains and
grasses are not surpassed anywhere.
Kendrick is noted for beans. The
Potlstch section produces many car
loads annually, which are shipped
from Kendric6 But Orotino beans
are just as excellent, and in exhibit
ing at outside fairs we are advertis-
ing these facts to all the world. Our
apples are not surpassed anywhere in
the world for flavor, keeping qualities
and real merit, but the world doesn t
yet know it. For our own good we
must wake up and advertise these
facts, and too much praise cannot be
given those who give of their time
and means exhibiting and advertising
Clearwater county products, calling
outside attention to our wonderful re-
sources.
We are proud of our showing at
Lewiston. Let us show our apprecia-
tion when the boys and Miss Ruth re-
turn home next week.

Orofino's Band Contributes Much
To Success OF Our County Fair

The Orofno band contributed no
small part to the success of the 1915
county fair. How much the music
was enjoyed those who heard it will
attest. That it was our band, our
boys, made it doubly interesting, and
added to the melody of the music. 1t
was a matter of regret that the band
had no uniforms. But these will
come. Orofino is too progressive and
too proud of her band to neglect
the appearance of the boys. The fin
est thing about it is that we are to
have this band just as long as the
people want it. For when town
wants band it willingly supports it,.
And Orofino wants band Our band
must continue to employ Prof. Morris
as instructor, which costs something
it must have music, which costs some
thing. The boys must all have first
class Instruments, and they cost a
great deal. But money spent for

CLEARWATER COUNTY TIES KENDRICK AT LEWISTON FAIR

Word reached Orofno Wednesday
evening that the Clearwater county
exhibit at the Lewiston fair had tied
with Browns wonderful exhibit from
kendrick for first for best county or
district display. and there was general
rejoicing. To excel the Potlatch sec
tion of Latah county, when a veteran
exhibitor like John Brown of Ken
drick has spent year gathering and
growing grains, grasses and garden
products specially for exhibition pur-
poses, is no easy task, and to tie for
first in competition with the largest
and most elaborate display Mr.. Brown
has ever brought out shows how excel
lent must be the Clearwater county
products, and how we'll they must have
been displayed.
The Clearwater county exhibit is the
blue ribbon products shown in the To-
cal fair last week. which was rushed
to Lewiston Monday morning and
hurriedly placed by I. J. LaForest,
assisted by George Alteneder and mis-
daughter, Miss Ruth, who has much
ability as an exhibitor of farm pro-
ducts. Miss AItsneder did practical ly
all of the work of preparing her
fathers splendid display at the local
fair, and with her sister, Mrs. Her
man Smith, arranged the big exhibit,
which attracted so much favorable
attention. 1t is safe to say that Miss
Ruth contributed no little in arrang-

have had the handling of the 1915 fair.
Another fact in this connection
should be noted. There was a vi ell
organized movement throughout the
county this year, the fruit of past
mismanagement and incompetency,
the direct result and fruit of and fail
ure to pay premiums the last two fairs,
to boycott the 1915 fair. People who
have never failed to patronize the
fair. and who have always had ex-
hibits, refused to have anything to do
with the fair. They did not attend
this year. Farmers who did bring in
exhibits were approached by neigbors
and urged not to take anything to the
Clearwater county fair. People were
told they would again be skinned out
of their premiums; that it would be
the same old game over.
The 1915 fair was meritorious; it
was we'll advertised. So far as the
weather permitted the entertainrl lent
provided was sufficient. And with
good crops and the people prospe rous
the attendance should have been up to
expectations. Yet at no time was the
fair patronized as it merited, and par
ticularly was this true of the farm mers.
They did not come to the fair. The
innocent are suffering for the sins of
of others. The chickens of 1913 and
1914 are coming home to roost.
The citizens of Orofino raised by
donation several hundred dollars for
this fair, and the business men have
stood back of it. The manager hent
did not spend money it did not h ave.
Premiums have been paid, ev very
promise redeemed, every debt in cur
red wiped out. Let nobody crit else

mistakes of former boards. The 1915

Orofno Corn, 1915 Crop, Astonishes
Corn Experts From Middle States

Corn men, experts from corn states,
have been surprised and astonished at
the display of corn at the Clearwater
county fair this year. The display
was wonderful, and people who have
lived in Clearwater county for years
said they did not know such corn
could be matured in this section.
Which shows the reason for holding
these local fairs, and should encour-
age the people to make greater efforts
in the future to make the fair what it
should be. Corn will be the salvation
of Clearwater county; it is the found
alton upon which to build substan-

Judge Todd Makes Record.

What is the record for rapid transit
in the matrimonial department of
athletics? Does Judge Todd hold the
blue ribbon? Anyway our affable
probate judge isn't slow, even if it
was his first time. The contracting
parties were Sam Eby and Mrs. Mary
Bertholf, both of the Fraser country.
Mr.. Eby and Mrs. Bertholf came to
Orofino Tuesday and by the clock got
their license, went upstairs to the
probate office where Judge Todd tied
the knot with neatness and dispatch,
Ole Holmberg and Prosecuting Attor-
ney Smith being witnesses, in fifteen
minutes from the time the bride and
groom entered the office of Auditor
Kaufman for their license the cermony
was over and the license placed on
record, and the happy pair were on
their way rejoicing. Ordinarily it
would take fifteen minutes for pro-
bate judge to arrange the scenery be-
fore ringing up the curtain on one
act drama of this character, but Judge
Todd got away with a flying start and
tied the knot without loss of time or
the use of one unnecessary word. In
his haste the Judge did not even at
tempt to kiss the bride, and Judge
! Todd is one Of Clearwater county s
most handsome bachelors.

1915 County Fair Management An
nOunce All Premiums Promptly Paid

The management of the Clearwater
county fair deserves greater credit and
praise than the people will probably
give the gentlemen who put on the
1915 fair, in many ways the biggest
and best held in the county. For class
and quality of products this years dis
play has never been approached, al
though greater variety may have
been shown. Coming back to the men
who have stood behind our last fair,
the men who have had to carry the
burden of financing it, and who were
charged with the responsibility of pro-
viding entertainment, publicity and
the interesting of exhibitors, too much
credit cannot be given. The people
owe these gentlemen vote of appre-
citation. The work this year has been
we'll and faithfully DONE And for
all their time and hard work not one
of them gets a cent of pay. What
they have done has been cheerfully
contributed for the good of Clearwater
county. And what have they accom-
plished?
At a meeting of the directors Wed
nesday evening it was announced that
the 1915 fair would pay every debt,
redeem every promise, and that every
premium had been paid in full. To
accomplish this the most careful man.
agement and rigid economy has been
necessary, because the recent court
decision stopped the county from con.
tributing anything, leaving the citi
zens of Orofino to shoulder the burden
The fact that with small attendnce
the 1915 fair pays its way is, there
fore, of more than passing Importance
and judged or compared with the re
cord of the past two years the fea
stands out as meritorious, and reflects
great credit on the gentlemen wh'

Experts Pronounce Conditions
At OrOfinO Ideal For Grapes

Grape experts, men who have studied
the business of raising this most noted
crop in Italy, declare that conditions
in and around Orofino are ideal, and
that Orofino grapes are unsurpassed
anywhere. The soil here is what is
known as limestone, this mineral
exiting in this section in unlimited
quantities. Attention should be di-
rected to the fact that Orofino has the
same character of soil that exists in

French Again In Trouble

Honor C. French of Elk River, who
was before the District court last
term on charge of bootlegging, but
acquitted becuse there was then no
law against having liquor in one S
possession, will again be up for trial
at the October term under similar
charge, being recently caught by
Deputy Sheriff Peter Shea with the
goods. His suitcase contained six
quarts of beer and six quarts cf whis-
key. At the preliminary last week
in Elk River he was bound over.
Saturday night, according to phone
from Elk River, Mr.. French was shot
through the shoulder, but by whom
the Republican has been unable to find
out. Whether or not the man will be
able to come to Orofno next week to
stand trial in the District court we
are not informed. Defendant will be
tried under the new law which makes
it criminal to have liquor in one s
possession, regardless of whether for
personal use or for bootlegging. This
will be the third time Mr.. French has
been before the District court charged
with violating the liquor laws.
