long been of the opinion that it

st. Maries-Tekoa road.
In addition to the special road
tax in that district and the mon
ey furnished by the county from
the general highway fund the set
tiers have donated quite a large
sum i'm work and it is hoped that
the apportionment just made by
the county will put the road in
condition so it can be used by
automobiles, thus doing away
with the long trip around by way
of Emida and Sanders for anyone
desiring to auto to Spokane.
The other road is known as the
Coon creek and Benewah roaC
and is the connecting link between
the Benewah road and a road il
the Plummer Highway distric
leading to Plummer. This roaC
is between two and three miles
long and the building of it will no
only afford a way to get tC
Plummer by automobile but il
will shorten the automobile road
to Spokane about twenty miles.
The completion of the road:
provided for i'm the commission
ers' appropriation will give this
city four different routes to Spo-
kane, one by the way of Harrison
and Occur d'Alene, one by way o
Emida, one by way of LOlO pass
and the other by way Of Plum

the different parties have actual
ly filed their nomination papers
with the county auditor.
Four new nominations we're
filed this week, all Of them Thurs

commissioner in the second dis
trict, J. T. Moran of plummer,
candidate for the Democratic
nomination for the same position,
Joseph p. Mathews Of Plummer,
candidate for the Democratic
nomination for Probate Judge,
and William d. Keeton of this
city, candidate for the Republican
nomination for prosecuting at
torney.
The nominations close August
5th giving prospective candidates
all next week in which to file
their nominations and there is
every prospect that there will be
plenty of candidates for every
Office by that time with the pos
sible exception Of that of coroner.
The salary of that Office is so
small that it does not look at
tractive to anyone in either party.

the duties of the Office to which
he aspires. He is a graduate OF
the University of Wisconsin and
has been admitted to practice be-
fore all of the courts of the state
and passed an exceptionally good
examination before the supreme

if nominated and elected, to per-
form the duties of the Office i'm
partially and in a manner that
will bring credit TO himself and
to his party. He is very popular
in Plummer, where he is known,
and will receive a large vote
