The Tyson Greek Railway case
against the Empire Mill company
md William Connolly, in which
the latter are endeavOring to Sc
cure heavy damages from the
former for a right of way for the
railroad across the defendants
lands has now been on trial in
the district court for over a week
and is still long way from being
completed.
The case is being fought bitter
ly on both sides. All witnesses
are being rigidly excluded from
the court room until they are
called upon to testify. C. H.

torneys for the railroad company,

sending of the jury from the room
while the point is being argued

The first important clash came
early in the trial when Potts and

being admitted of facts which had
come to the knowledge of the de-
lfendants since the commencement
of this action to- condemn for a
right of way. By this they hoped
to exclude all of the evidence OF
the defendants in regard to the
placer gold in the land and all evi-

Roy Tracey Found
Not Guilty

An action was heard in the pro-
bate court Tuesday afternoon
which attracted cons iderable at
tention. 1t was the case of the
State against Roy Tracey, who
was charged with violation of
The game low in killing deer out
Of season.
The orense was alleged to have
been committed about March ist
last. The alleged violation of
the law was brought to the atten-
.tion of the authorities by Captain
Laird Of the Red Collar Line, who
eported the occurrence to the
leputy game warden at Occur d. =
Nene and he turned the case over
Deputy Game Warden r. J.
Hanlon, who after investigating
lthe matter, swOre out a warrant
I1Or Tracey's arrest and the case
was tried before a jury.
A man by the name of J. A.
ISchiecke was the principal wit
mess for the state. He testified
lthat on the day in question he was
walking along a trail in the hills
Zen the north side of the river and
heard two shots but could not see
| who fred the guns. Going on a
lshort distance he saw a deer ly-
ling on the side hill, still struggl-
ling. He went up to it and in or
lcer TO put it out of its misery he
started TO cut its throat. While
lie was at work Tracey and an.
)ther man, who was a stranger t.
him, came down, claimed the dee
and proceeded to clean it and TAX
il away with them.
He stated that when they cam
down the hill they had the hear
land liver of another deer whicl
they said they had shot on tn
other side of the hill and whic
they gave to him. On cross eX
lamination ne admitted that tn
game warden had promised not {
prosecute him if he informed o
the other two. From his descrip

Starts Suit To
Quiet Title

An action was filed in the dis
trict court for this county We'd
nesday by T. H. Vroman against
C. A. Walker. 1t is an action to
quiet title to Mr. VrOman's home
stead, where he resides. Some
few weeks ago Mr. Walker Sc
cured judgment against Mr.. VrO-
man for a claim and the sheriff
levied on Mr.. Vroman's homestead
to collect the judgment, the prop
erty being bid in by Mr.. Walker at
the sheriff's sale.
Mr.. VrOman claims that the
property was exempt from SELF
ure and sale on execution for two
reasons, one being that the debt
for which the judgment was rem
dered was contracted prior to the
time he proved up on the land as
homestead and the other that
prior to the levy and sale he had
Rled with the County Recorder a
notice claiming the land in ques-
tion as his homestead and claim
ing the exemptions as such.
f. N. LaVeine appears as at
torney for Mr. Vroman.

that he could not have been at the
place where it was alleged the
deer was killed either on March
ist, 2nd or 3rd, and telling where
he was on those days.
The jury brought in a verdict
of not guilty and Tracey was dis
charged. The state was repre-
sented by Prosecuting Attorney
Ed 5. Elder and Attorney r. b.
Norris defended Tracey.

Shepperd has prepared the flnan-
cial statement of the county for
the fiscal year ending April 10,
1915, and has issued in in pamp-
hlet form, which is being sent TO
some of the heaviest taxpayers OF
the county. In his preface Mr..
Shepperd says:
Taxpayers are entitled to this
full statement of the details en-
tered into in transacting county
business and the disbursements
OF public money which they have
contributed in proportion to the
assessed valuation of the property
owned by them. Therefore we
invite your careful consideration
of the statistics presented herein
and we hope that It will serve not
only to give each taxpayer the in
formation to which ne is entitled
but also to increase public inter
est in the management of the
business affairs of Benewah
County"
The statement covers all trans
actions from the time that the
county officers assumed their du-
ties, February is, 1915, to April
40, 1916, but as the commissions
ers only meet quarterly to allow
bills and their meeting was held
April 10, the disbursements for
the last quarter do not appear in
the statement. The statement
is a lengthy one and would fill
nearly three entire pages of The
Record so it is impossible for us
to give more than a slight index
of its contents at this time, al
though later we will publish it in
full.

II NEWEST REnEDY
FOR
Backache, Rheumatism and Dropsy.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the poisons are carried to all parts of the
body. There follow depression, aches
and pains, heavineSS, drowsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches, chillineSS ard rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstin-
ate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
joints, it causes lumbago,. rheumatism,
"Anuric."
During digestion uric acid is absorbed
into the system from meat eaten, and
even from some vegetables. The poor
kidneys get tired and backache begins.
This is a good time to take "Anuric,"

ney trouble and Backache. Neglected
