AFFIRMS DECISION.
Appeal of Katherine Kuhnen VS.. Andy
Kuhnen Results In Affirming Judgment

Last Thursday the Supreme court en-
tered its decision affirming the judg-
ment of Judge Edgar G. Steele, where
he refused to set aside the decree OF
divorce granted to Andy Kuhnen, in
prior action, and making division OF
certain of the community property
holdings of the couple, in favor of the
plaintiff of the action, Katherine Kuh-
men. This is one of the many eases in
which Andy Kuhnen has figured as de-
PENDANT since his trial in which he was
charged with incest and acquitted.
Kuhnen formerly obtained divorce
from his wife. About a year ago Fred
E. Butler appearing for the divorced
wife, attempted to set aside the divorce
and prayed for a decree for division
of the property, alleging that on the
trial first filed by Andy Kuhnen, that
his wife was coerced into giving tes-
timony that was false, and resulted in
the property going to the husband. The
divorce as granted was allowed to stand,
but the court by its decree awarded the
woman her share of the community pro
perty. This judgment was appealed
from, L. Vineyard appearing for the
appellant and defendant, Andy Kuh,
men,

N. B, PETTIBoNE EXPLAINS POSI-
TON ON COUNTY DIVISION.

n. b. Pettibone, state senator-elect
was in the city yesterday, packing his
furniture preparatory to moving it TO
his ranch, where he has just completed
the construction of new residence.
Mr.. Pettibone made us a pleasant call
and as is natural the road question as
well as county division was gone into
detail, and to the question put by us,
" How do you stand on county divi-
sioni' Mr.. Pettibone replied:
"That if the majority of the people
in the proposed territory want county
division and that their lines are fair
and equitable to all concerned he will
support the measure, and if the majo-
rity are against it, it will not receive
his support" Mr.. Pettibone made
this stand during his campaign after
county division became an issue after
his nomination.-Stites Enterprise.

DEVELOPMENT CLUB MET TUES.

The KOoskla Development club met
Tuesday evening in a very interesting
session. The matter of holding a meet

Clearwater river at Lewiston, on which
committee had been appointed and
who rendered their report was taken
up and the report of the committee
was adopted. The session was made
more interesting by the presence of
several citizens from the Woodland dis
trict, who were enroute up the river on
hunting trip and while in the city
made the club friendly visit. At their
suggestion Messers Quist and Jones out
lined the various steps that had been
taken in the matter of road publicity
as to the Missoula- X ooskia Highway
and the visitors were greatly pleased
at the advence that had been made in
this matter and are very much in &C.

to accrue to the whole river section

A $1,000 POTATO CROP.

Herman Yates of Winona put in IL
acres of potatoes last spring as a part
of his crop and as an example of the
Availability of diversifying we wish to
call attention to the fact that from this
crop he received returns of better than
$1,000 and did not sell on top market
either. However, the potatoes were of
exceptionally fine quality and large in
size and no doubt had they been brought
to the attention of the Northern Pacific
he would have received long price as
they are of the sort that company is con-
tinually seeking to fill the increasing
demand for the "Big Baked Potato"
which is served on the diners of that
line and which has made the service
famous from one end of the continent
to the other.

LAKES WITH NO OUTLETS.
And Fantastic Mirases That Greet ths
Desert Traveller.

A playa is a shallow, fat foored de-
preston, characteristic of valleys hav-
ing no regular drainage to the sea, In
which storm waters collect and evap-
crate. 1t may be shallow lake or
salt incrusted mud fat.
In his description of the ancient
Lake Lahontan. in Nevada, l. @. Rus
sell writes:
THE scenery on the larger playas is
peculiar and is usually desolate In the
extreme, but Is not without its charm.
In crossing these wastes the traveller
may ride for miles over a perfectly
level floor, with an unbroken sky line
before him and not an object in sight
to cast a shadow on the ocean-like ex-
panse.
"Mirages, which may be seen almost
every day on these heated deserts, give
strange fanciful forms to the noun
tains and sometimes transfgure them
beyond recognition. A pack train
crossing the desert a few miles distant
may appear like some strange caravan
Of grotesque beasts fording shallow
lake, the shores of which advance as
one rides away. The monotony of mid
day on the desert is thus broken by
elusive forms that are ever changing
and suggest thousand fancies, which
divert the attention from the fatigues
of the journey.

We hear a great deal about the lux
ury and extravaganza Of Cleopatra.
the queen of the Nile, and Of the gor-
geous feasts she and Mark Antony
had together, yet these little dinners
and suppers for two cost Cleopatra
only about 4 shillings, with wine and
attendance.
If Cleopatra had lived in these times
she could not possibly get supper at
2 shillings a head. with waiter and
wine included.
In those days a large jar of wine
cost only 4 shillings, and this probably
lasted long time. A pigeon was dear
etables which lasted for months could
be bought for about shillings.
Slaves were easy enough to get, and
their dress was SO scanty that liveries
couldn't have been expensive.
Cleopatra once went in for very
costly drink. She melted priceless
pearl in glass of wine and presented
it to Mark Antony. But the queen of
Egypt did not go in for such extrav-
agances every night.
Nero, the tyrannical emperor of the
Romans, famed for his extravagant,
luxurious living, who gave twenty-five
course dinners, where the guests re-
clined on ivory and silver couches and
dipped their fingers into finger bowls
which contained costly wines, did not
spend nearly so much on feasting as
many modern millionaires.-Londo

Other 'EadS Than Ours
A LESSON IN JOURNALISM

1t is always a pleasure to discuss
journalism with an honest man who
knows nothing about it. Prof. Scott
Nearing, for example, believes that
most newspapers are biased or cor
rupt because they are not disposed
to embellish their pages with his long
and not very convincing arguments
against measures for national de-
Tense.
Nothing in this world is easier than
that his failure to make a profound
impression is due to somebody's
prejudice or dishonesty Many a hum
bug gets great space in newspapers
for reason. Many a man of one
idea figures briefly in the big head
lines But many person profoundly
in earnest is taken up and quickly set
down again because it is found that
after all, he has not true message.
There is hardly day that does not
develop in some line of thought man
or woman, generally young, who has
discovered that the inherited expert
ence of the human race in its social
and political relations is worthless.
If the humdrum newspapers which
deal in their ignorant way with life
as it is and has been were to accept
all these prophets at their selfvalua
tions this world would be more of
bedlam than it is.
Truth sometimes has to fight for
a hearing, but never hopelessly. Fol-
Iy and presumption are much more
likely to receive hasty attention. In
most cases it is when folly and pre-
sumption have been found out and
dropped that we hear of the I'M
friendliness of the press. Truth rec
ognized and established presents no
resolutions of thanks and throws no
bouquets. Truth is the great silenc-
er
Prof Nearing speaks of journalism
as a game which it is not. Journal
ism is about as serious a profession
as sober men ever engaged in 1t has
its eye upon the past for instruction
and upon the future for inspiration
guided by that instruction. We wish
that Prof Nearing and all other re-
formers who are in hurry could be
similarly actuated-New York World.
