CITY.
p. A. Gaul returned late last week

companied home by Mrs. Gaul's sister
and children. They had quite time
getting up from the river town and did
not reach Nezperce until late in the

losing one chain and wearing OUT
several pieces of rope, finally succeed
ed in reaching the top of the hill but
had to put up at Nezperce for the night
and come home the next day.
DR.. J. E. Reilly and Mr.. Kennedy

ton, while Mr.. Kennedy, who resides in

the grain line. Both gentlemen are
favorably impressed with our country
and like its prosperous appearance.

FOR SECRETARY OF STATE.
To the Voters of Idaho:


1 hereby announce my candidacy for
the office of Secretary, of State on the
Republican ticket, subject to the will
held on Tuesday, September 5th, 1916.
have been a resident Of the state
for over 20 years and, while my home
is at Nezperce, Lewis county, feel
that l can serve the people of the
state, as whole, without prejudice or
Partially, and with "equal rights to
all and special privileges to none.o
have never held an elective office,
but have had considerable clerical ex-
perience and believe I am fully compe-
tent to fill the position for which ask
your support.
/ heartily endorse the Republican
state platform and if elected will do all
in my power to help fulfill it's pledges.
I am in favor OF the good roads
movement and hope to see the plan
carried out whereby convict labor can
assist in this work.
I am firm believer in the State OF
Idaho, having my little worldly posses.
sions invested here, and am interested
in its progress. 1 believe one Of the
most important ways Of bringing Idaho
into her own is to encourage the
development of her resources and to i'm.
prove the farms and homes. I am per.
suaded by experience that this can be
most effectively accomplished by Civ
ing the farmers cheaper money with
which to make these improvements and
developments, and in order to do this
would favor the state taking the lead
in lowering the rate of interest and sug-
gest loaning state money to farmers
and school districts at five per cent;
the basis of the farm loan being made
on certain per cent of the assessed
valuation of the farm.
shall be very grateful for any sup.
port you may see fit to render in my
behalf and promise that shall use every
endeavor to run the office as economi.
cally as possibe-as I would were it my
own business.
Respectfully submitted,
lift Chancey Wallace.

ton for many years, and this was their

Frank Finney was In town from the
Woodland section over Friday night.
He is one of the many prosperous farm
ers of that section of north Idaho
county, and reports the crops looking
fine and that the harvest will soon be
in full swing in his neighborhood.
A letter to the Mountaineer from
John Brain states, that he is now locat-
ed at the Soldiers Home, Sawtelle,
Calf, and that he thinks this beauti-
full place, with model surrounding and
plenty of good things to eat. He says
that he made the trip nearly the entire
distance by boat, also sends his best
regards to old friends.
The Mountaineer was in error to some
extent in regard to the road between
Camp No. l and Syringa. This peice
of road needs some work to make it
first class. And if rightly informed,
the work lately done was donated by
Jack Wills, F. E. Quist, FL. J. Taylor.
Harry Winslow, Sumner Rackliff, John
kirchner. And as only a small amount
of work is required to complete ths
road there ism It any doubt but enough
work can be raised to finish the road.

vile. are in Sites this week visiting
their daughter, Mrs. Jacob Sites. The
Alexanders recently traded their hotel
property in Grangeville for a farm in
Latah county and will soon leave for
that place.
VIM. Knox, of Godendale, Washing
ton, who has been enjoying a vacation
in the Clearwater section, returned to
Goldendale this morning for few days.
Mrs. Knox remained here and Mr.. Knox
return in a few days to complete his
vacation.
The camping party consisting of
Theo. p. Tollefson and family, Mrs. A.
G. Scheel and daughter and Mrs.
Scheel's brother, o. j. Hart, and
family returned Monday evening from
a ten days outing on Newsome creek.
They report having had a fine time.
Warren H. Bertolett, who has been
dangerously i'll at Grangeville for the
past three weeks was moved to Sites
yesterday evening, Charley Hall bring
ing him down in his auto on an impro-
vised stretcher. Mr.. Bertolett rested
nicely last night and strong hopes are
entertained of his speedy recovery.
T. M. Atwood and son, Pittman, of
Winona and Grangeville, were visitors
in Sites the first of the week. Mr..
Atwood looking after his candidacy for
the assessors office on the democratic
ticket, while Pittman was looking after
prospective purchasers for Maxwell
cars for which they have the agency.
From Sites Mr.. Atwood returned to his
farm at Winona, where he is harvest
ing bumper crop.
Sheriff LATE Yates was in town yes
terday on official business. Mr.. Yates
has just returned from a three hundred
mile horseback ride, which was requir-
ed to serve one summons. The above
goes to show that Idaho county is some
county, as Mr.. Yates did not go to its
extreme southern end. The approach
ing primary election does not concern
the sheriff as he has no opposition on
| the democratic ticket for the nomina
ton, and the general election does not
seem to bother him as his record is
speaking for him louder than words.
Mr.. Yates has made many friends in the
Sites section by the active interest he
has taken in suppressing lawlessness
especially is this so among the farmers.
Mr.. and Mrs. Phil Hartman left on
the passenger Saturday morning to visit
their daughter, Caroline, who is work
ing in the Orofino postoffice. Sunday
was spent with their daughter and SON

have traded their Orofino town prop
erty for farm four miles north of
Orofino. They claim they like it fine
on the farm and Roy drives the incest
match team of iron grey mares that
comes to Orofino, also has some good
blooded cattle and hogs for a starter
He has sixty acres of fine looking
wheat. He cut the oats of a twelve
acre piece for hay which net him two
hundred dollars delivered at Orofino
Hauling to the market in that locality
is not such a break neck job as all the
roads laid out in the Clearwater county
are not over an eight per cent grade
free from rocks, with ditch ON the
upper side to keep the water from run
ming in the road to wash out the fine
rock and dirt. The men that were al
the head of such systematic road build
ing certainly deserve lot of credit.

To keep the bowels regular the best
laxative is outdoor exercise. Drink a
full glass of water half an hour before
breakfast and eat an abundance of
fruit and vegetables, also establish a
regular habit and be sure that your

medicine is needed take Chamberlain y
Tablets. They are pleasant to take and

THE mendacious Republican leaders
have attempted to discredit President
Wilson's authority for the child labor
legislation. First, they affected to
have found a "joker" in it, but that
gazoo was knocked out in%continent.
Then they said he had not had part in
the enactment, except to sign it. But
Edward Heating, the father of the
bill, says "Wilson did it-and he did
1t just as he has done SO many other
big things during the last four years;
he frankly and publicly advised his
Democratic associates, who control
the legislative branch of our govern
ment, to act on what wal the manifest
