KENT'S HILL NOTES

The Democrats of Kent's Hill Semin-
srv hold q rousing rally Friday at
which good speaking was the rule and
much enthusiasm for Wilson the re-
suit Professor Spencer of the English
department registered his personal
sentiments very forcihly and was fol-
lowed by Harold Nevens OF Har.iano.
Willis Littlefield of Sanford ana ROBERT
Newton of Kent's Hill. The commi'iee
aimed their best efforts toward con-
vincing the girls who will be permitted
to vote in the school election. FRANK
Dow, Chairman of the Town COM
mittee Of the Democratic Party, de
clared the rally very successful and the
speakers quite right in their arguments.
Ken's Hill has organized a band
made up entirely of students of the
seminary. This band played at sthe
Hebron contest and was a great sue
cess The band Is under the direction
of C. III. Southland of Wiscasset. He
has had considerable experience in
band and orchestra work and is a
leader of marked ability.
Following out the plan of the political
rallies held recently by student sym
pathisers If both parties. Principal j.
o. Newton proposed a series of dis
cussions along economic and political
lines to be participated in freely by all
the students. Prof. Newton proposed
that the merits of the Adamson Law
be discussed as the first question. In
the chapel talk of which this proposal
was a part, Prin. Newton prophesied
universal suffrage as imminent in the
rot n nf MOI in fho
and emphasized the necessity for prep
araticn for participation in public life
by girls as we'll as by boys. 1t is quite
likely that lyceum. or discussion club,
will he formed as a result of this
speech. Such a club would prove in
valuable in training speakers for de-
batting teams.
The spirit Of sacrifice was well ev-
idenced in the visit of the three Colby
men who came as a Y. M. C. A. delega-
ton Sunday. 1t requires loyalty to
ones ideals to fulfill an out-of- town
engagement while ones college is cell
ebrating great victory and a cham
pionsbip such as Colby had won last
Saturday. The men were all Seniors,
too, which means that they missed
their last football celebration as stu
dents.
Maynard Dow is home from the Uni
versity Of Maine for a few days, prim-
arily for the purpose of voting Tues
day. He acted as field Judge in Satur-
days contest with Hebron.

Knigts Had Fine Time.

The "Social Club" of the X. of P.
lodge had one of their "doins Mon
day night, and it was hum ding
er. 1t was even better than that.
There was fine music, and large
assemblage of Sir Knights and fair
ladies'. The hall was comfortably
filled. There was sociability, friend
ship and Pythian fellowship to the
fullest extent, and a good time for
everybody. Even an old Civil War
veteran like Charley Bradish was so
carried away with the spirit of the
occasion that he forgot all about his
infirmities and "hoed it down. as he
used to when he was lot younger
than he is today. He did the pig
con wing" swing on the corner, the
two-step and the Flying Dutchman in
style chat made the younger men
sit up and take notice. At midnight
Mesdames Shriver, Beck and Miss Ze-
lenka served delicious lunch that
made one feel like emulating Oliver
Twist.

Governor Alexander has discovered
that the people themselves are princi-
pally to blame for high taxes. Dur
ing the campaign he told the people
it was the state officials who were re-
sponsible. Having been up against
the proposition of saving one million
dollars, which he insisted was being
annually wasted or stolen, and max
ing fiat fizzle of it, he now faces
the necessity of telling the people the
truth, and thereby admit he was talk
ing thru his hat. Like George Wash

L. ID. Snyder Dies.

Lorenzo D. Snyder died at his home
in Orofino yesterday morning at the
age of So. His end came few days
after visit to Minneapolis special
lists in last effort to prolong his
life. Local doctors gave up hope
some weeks ago, and his death was
not unexpected. A giant in physical
strength, never knowing a sick day
up to year ago, he spurned the ad-
vice of physicians who were alarmed
over his sudden breakdown. He re-
fused to believe disease could make
him quit, and he defied it. A man of
great courage, he disdained medicine
nor would he follow the advice of
doctors in matters Of diet. He was
told he would give his life as the
penalty and he would not listen.
Deceased was born in Harmon,
Randolph county, w. Va, October
Is, 1864, and came to this section in
1894. He leaves wife and nine chill
dren, all of this locality, besides a
mother back in the old home state.
His surviving brothers are Samson,
P. A., Job, John and Henry of this
county. and Blaine and Elmer of W..
Va. NM Dan Carr of Orofino is a
sister. The funeral will occur today
from the M. E. church at IL AS.

Orofino Offers Ideal Opportunity For Birds.

Orofino is an ideal place for pouI-
try. The early springs, with short
winters, afford conditions favorable
to the production of early spring
friers and cary eggs, with the market
at high water mark. Orofno, and
the valley along the river, should be.
come famous for poultry, line
of business that offers splendid re-
muneration for the time and money
invested, What better opportunity
presents itself anywhere, especially
in country with so many small
benches. unfit for general farming,
than poultry, especially in climate,
and with soil, SO specially adapted to
corn?
Did the reader ever stop and in
vestigate the profit in poultry? Do
you know that the hen is the only
animal on the farm that will return
more than 81 per year profit for a
dollar invested Many fail in poultry
because they don't weed out all un-
profitable hens. They fail because
they don't understand food values.
They fail because they do It know
how to care for hens. Hens must
have more than food. They must be
kept dry. They must have fresh
water. They must have the right
kind of quarters, and these quarters
must be kept clean.
Why not spend a little time this
winter studying poultry? Why not
invite Prem Moore, the University of
Idaho poultry expert, to Orofno and
have him discuss poultry and eggsf
Why not local poultry show in
January, say the latter part, ard thus
arouse interest in line of industry
now sadly neglected?
This is one of the most important
suggestions the Clearwater Republi-
can has made. and deserves more at
tention than it has heretofore received
from the local press. The Commercial
Club may well give attention to it,
and the merchants can do nothing
better than encourage it.
Of course, if the people go into
poultry the question of market will
become vital to the success of the
industry. In the start let the Repub-
lican suggest cooperation. Let the
Commercial Club, working with an
organization of local poultry raisers.
find, if necessary, the highest cash
market Perhaps no effort along
this line will be needed.
The market is generally greater
than the supply.
Cold storage can be provided in
Orofino to care for the product during
summer months when prices are low,
enabling local producers to market
during the winter when prices are
high.

The Bank of Orofino held it's annual
meeting of stockholders Tuesday
night, Jos. Richards and W. L.
Clark, both of Spokane, attending.
The bank showed most prosperous
condition, the average daily increase
of deposits for the year being 20 per
cent over 1914. All officers and di-
rectors were reelected. In 1914 the
record shows there passed between
the local banks, (clearings), totaling
$404, 356. "a. 1915 the clearings in
creased to $473, 38l.7l, an increase of
II per cent. The Bank Of Orofino is

Plenty of Snow.

The heavy snow is driving the deer
out of the mountains, and the woods
around Orotino is said to be full of
them. People coming in from Red S
Prairie this week report more signs of
deer than for many years at this sea-
son. 1t has been suggested that if
the snow continues to get deeper the
farmers scatter little hay for deer.
The cougar are specially destructive
when snow is deep, and special effort
should be made to kill them during
this season when deer are practically
helpless.

How. Many! Cows In Clearwater County!

People don't like to be told the
truth, when it is uncomplimentary,
but sometimes it does good. The Re-
publican can't help calling attention
to the lack Of interest in the cream
cry meeting in Orofino Saturday. The
Commercial Club could get only a
few farmers to attend, and the only
excuse for such condition is indiff-
erence or laziness. Prof. l. w.
Holmes of the University of Idaho
gave the few farmers present some
valuable information. The meeting
did some good, for it resulted in the
appointment Of committee, Messrs.
Fred Dieterle of Gilbret, Dan Cloud
of Wells Bench, Milo George of Fra
ser, George Cook of Orofino creek,
and E. A. Patterson of Teakean, who
will take a census of all milch-cow
in their neighborhoods, and report
within month. If enough cows to
make creamery pay are found, it is
probable an effort will be made to
start creamery. The man on land
in Clearwater county will never sue
ceed till he wakes up and does what
experience has demonstrated time and
again in every country must be done
to prosper. Wheat may pay some
years, but it impoverishes the land,
while dairying enriches the soil and
pays better, all things considered.

Dismissed The Case.

The case against Chas. McDaniels
and Bud Holt for killing deer was
dismissed in the probate court
Wednesday, on motion of County At
torney Smith. 1t seems that some
body wrote to the state game depart
ment at Boise complaining that the
law was violated, and Deputy Game
Warden Jas. J. keane Of Moscow was
detailed on the case. Mr.. keane in
vestiagted the report and found what
he felt was ample evidence to convict.
The arrest followed. But when it
came to going on the stand and swear
ing those who had complained weak
ened. There was nothing to do but
dismiss the case, and no blame can
be attached to the officers. So far as
proof went two men were seen to kill
a deer, but the witness was half a
mile away and could not positively
identify the parties. Nobody would
positively sw ar they had seen the
slaughtered deer in the possession of
defendants. It was certain. however,
the law had been violated. and also
certain that without some assistance
from the people officers are practical
lily powerless to enforce the law.
One or two witnesses told the author
tiles they were afraid to testify.
TIE CO t., SIS, will be paid by Clear.
