Lewiston people are engaged in
preparing an immense celebration
this year in commemoration of In
dependence Day, and will especially
feature patriotic parade in which

This feature is prepared in view of
the National sentiment for prepared
ness and in view of the general pur-
pose throughout the nation to give
emphasis of loyalty to our institutions
particularly at this time. Every
marcher will carry flag. This is but
one feature of the big program and
entertainment which will continue
throughout four days, from the lst of
July to the 4th of July, inclusive,
with carnival attractions, base ball
tournments, water sports, etc. The
railroads have granted special rates
to encourage the success of the patri-
otic demonstration on July 4th.

Road Progress Made.

Elk River Sentinel: After CONSUL
tation with Overseer Schuh Commits.
sloner Choate Friday authorized and
laid out relocation of the Bovill
road over the Neva hill which will
reduce the grade from prohibitive
angle to maximum of six per cent.
Mr.. Schuh s crew is now at work on
the job, which will afford practical
outlet by wagon to the west. The
relocation begins near the Perry ranch
and winds up the hill, crossing
directly over the Milwaukee tunnel
and down the west side through the
Fitzpatrick place toa juction with the
old road. On this, the east, side of
the hill there will be. 5, 200 feet of six
per cent grade and the west side 2. $50
feet of seven per cent. The latter
however, cannot be put in now. be-
cause right-of-way has not been
secured the whole distance, because
the country allowance for this wear
Will not permit and because Latah
county is expected to relocate it's end
OF the road up Ruby creek 50 as to
avoid a number of railroad crossings
and short steep pitches.
The necessary relocation on this
end is not so urgent and will not be
made at once. Commissioner Choate
In this matter acted without delav or
red tape.
Three quarters of mile of new
road Will be put in from the Simmons
place on Willow Ridge to the Meadow
Ridge road to give the Willow Ridg-
ers an outlet, the present trail being
4o per cent grade in places. The
new graie will have six per cent
maximum.
Considerable work has been done on

Keep Up the Good Work.

Orofino has dore he self proud in the
matter of the Chautauqua. No COM
munity could get behind proposition
with more unity of purpose, with more
pep. with more enthusiasm, and
what seemed an impossible task has
turned out to be most creditable
victory. 1t shows what community
can accomplish when it pulls together.
1t demonstrates the power of united
ehdeavor. 1t shows that Orofino, or
any other town, can get together and
accomplish things of general interest.
Now let US keep up the good work.

or women of bigger hearts and more

Proud of Honor Record.

Two of the men in the prison road
camp near Whitebird in northern
Idaho, broke their honor pledge and
escaped from the camp after robbing
store and holding up number of
people. This news was received at
the Boise State Penitentiary with a
good deal of worry and anger, not
only by Warden Shook and the officers
of the institution, but also by the
prisoners themselves. By the latter
it is felt that something of stigma
has been cast on not only the other
members of the road making party,
but also upon all the remaining pris-
oners who are still IN Boise. or are
employed in various capacities.
Word has been received that the
remaining prisoners in the Whitebird
camp have pledged their pay while
working three as part of the reward
to be paid for the capture of the two
who escaped, and it is sal very fair
ly represents the sentiment of the
prisoners generally at the peniten-
tiary.

Chautauqua Will Be Success.

As we go to press there is every
reason to feel that the Orofno Chau-
tauqua will be decided success, anc
that it will be self-supporting. By
united effort and thorough canvasine
of the town and surrounding country
the 400 tickets guaranteed will pro-
badly be disposed of by the hour of
the opening of the big feature. There
was general rejoicing among Orofno
people yesterday over the very sue
cessful outlook. Farmers began yes
terday to come in with their fam
lilies and to open camp. Today will
find the town crowded. and Chautau-
qua week will no doubt prove the big
gest and best in the history of the
town.
Having worked hard and faithfully
Orofino citizens, the committee of SIS
who backed this Chautauqua, are to
be congratulated. And in passing
let us not forget the most loyal sup
port Orofino has received from the
farmers and their families who have
boosted for the crowd. No small
amount of credit is due the various
newspapers who have generouly opened
their columns and in every way help
ed to advertise Chautauqua week in
Orofino.

Home Grown Seeds.

While other communities are wax
ing up to the possibilities of home
grown seeds it has apparently been
overlooked that Orotino can get into
this game. Last fall George Alien
eder, local gardener, produced some
very large fodder corn. The writer
got some of the corn for spring plant
ing and sowed about an eighth of an
acre. Preliminary tests by Mr.. Alien
eder showed less than so per cent of
fertile seed, but when planted this
home grown seed must have germi-
mated 100 per cent, looking at the crop
now more than foot high. 1t shows
remarkable fertility, and no imported
seed could excel in excellence. This
would be true of all other home grown
seed, and there is no reason why
Clearwater county ST ould import any
kind of garden, grass or field seed.
We should, on the other hand, raise
many tons for export, an industry
that would pay large dividends for
the nve stme t. A ter the Chautau.
qua let us take time to investigate
this mat and get into the game.

Titanic" Wheat.

The department as recently been
advised by corr ESP ,rde 1t in Cali
fornia that variety of wheat is
being advertised under the name
Titanic. +" The assertion is made
that new variety of wheat discover
ed in England about four years ago,
ard that small quantity of seed was
brought to the United States by one
of the survivors of the ill-fated IT,
tanic. The wheat is represented as
having extremely high yielding pow
er, the returns reaching as high as
1000 fold. A photograph sent by
this correspondent shows head iden-
teal in appearance with the widely
exploited "A Alaska' wheat. Five
acres of the wheat are said to be
growing in the State of Washington,
and the seed, it is bell aved, will be
offered at high price after harvest.
The department has no further or
more definate information concerning
this variety but farmers and dealers
are cautioned to be on their guard
concerning this new exploitation.

ana courage on your return.
The Chautauqua is arranged under a
bureau and the managers see to the

talented men and women.
The Chautauqua must reach all
classes of men and women. and child

instructive entertainer, ranging from
opera and political views, to the
Bible, where men and women sit to-
gether and all find something to their
liking; humorous speaking, readings,
representations mimicry, lectures with
illustrated views, vocal and instru-
mental music, both popular and .las-
sic. Where is the soul that does not
love some form or all of music?
Come sit down and enjoy an hour.
Remember your children too. Jun
Tor Chautauqua is the place for them,
a department designed for the child

Why go? Because you can see in
1T the pleasures and traits of men and
women, for each performer is chosen
because he or she typifies in clear
manner certain line Of art, and by
bringing them together We may enjoy
these various things that we love.
They are travelling, we are not
they have their views, we have ours.
Let us get together to brush up bit
and compare. 1t helps to lift clouds
and to give us joy in seeing and hear

clined towards, to renew our friend
ship, and restore confidence again.
