campaign manager for John M.

ut is good news for us, this

Ewing's cry for aid. We did not

letter that Mr.. Ewing was in such
desperate straits, much less will

Mayor H. S. Sealey was a caller a

Mayor H. S. Sealey was a caller at
this Office one day this week and an
nounced his disposition to revive the
interest in the much talk-of and writ
ten about proposed canal to connect
Bayou Teche with Grand Lake. He
was candid enough to admit that
Whatever may have been New Iberia's
need of this proposed canal in the
past, that need pales into insignifi-
canoe as compared 10 the present
needs of this city for such an avenue
to opportunity. He saw more vacant
buildings in this place now than ever
existed beforehand new ones are con-
stantly being added to the list. There
should be something done TO stop this
tide and to reverse the flow. We
need more factories, but we need
more shorter route to our national
resources. The fishing banks of the
lakes ale within hale o. our steam
whistles, but requires the better part
of two DAYS travel to reach them by
the present route While many
prOspe ctors have done much in blaz-
ing tne way cana should 60, he felt
that the times and the needs of the
present were sufficient to goad TO such
action as will bring results. He pro-
posed such organization for this un-
dertaken and will be fruitful of tenn
poral blessings.

IDAHO UNIVERSITY GLEE CLUB
TO VISIT US.

Donald David of Moscow, manager
of the University Glee club, was in
the city the first of the week and com
pleted arrangements with the local
high school to bring the university
musical aggregation to this place for
one performance. The date decided
upon is the 23rd of this month. Don
aid David, while quite a young man,
is q business hustler. He has taken
the glee club all over the north part
of the state as manager, and has in
vaded the city of Spokane, carrying
away from there decidedly the most
fiattering press comments of any or
ganization of this character that has
yet appeared in that city from any
section. The press, where ever the Uni
versity Glee club has appeared has
placed it at the top of the list in that
class of attractions. There are 26
members in the club. Grangeville is
fortunate in securing this musical at
traction, and should give the high
school and the glee club its hearty
support.

ARRANGING TO FINANCE LEWIS
TON LIVESTOCK SHOW.

The proposition OF financing the
1916 show of the Northwest Livestock
association was discussed yesterday at
a meeting of the officers of the as
sociatiOn and Lewiston business men
held at the Bollinger hotel. The as
sociation was represented by Presi-
dent e. S. Sweet, Vice President d.
s. Wallace, r. G. Beach and w. J..
Jordan of the executive board, while
the Lewiston business men were well
represented.
At meeting held two weeks ago
the matter of financing the 1916
show was first taken up but no def
mite decision was reached because of
no person being present with authori-
ty to speak for the livestock associa-
ton. The meeting yesterday was
hurriedly arranged because of the
presence of Mr.. Sweet in the city and
while no definite action was taken
toward launching the campaign for
funds, the matter was left with an
understanding that further meeting
will be held within the next week
or 10 days and the association has
agreed to work with the Lewiston
citizens on the matter of financing
the 1915 exhibition.
The condition this year is unusual

in that no subscriptions were taken
on the evening of the annual banquet
in December with which to begin
the campaibn for the 1916 show. In
past years the association has prac-
tically secured its finances at the
annual meeting.
The meeting yesterday resulted in
the association officials and Lewiston
business men agreeing upon the plan
of working together in the matter Of
employing d secretary and securing
the needed finances and at the meet
ing to be held within the next few
days it is expected the definite action
of employing the secretary will be
taken.-Tribune.

for live stock men to round up their

DRAW JURY FRIDAY
Damage Case Against Light
& Power Company Prob

The February term of the district

court house Monday of this week with
calendar of some 60 cases to be han
died. Much of the work of the session
to date has been of a preliminary ma
ture, arguments upon motions and de-
murrers, setting cases for trial and
in some instances continuing and dis
missing certain actions.
The criminal calendar will prob
ably take up but comparatively little
time of the court during the present
term. 1t is doubtful at present If any
action whatever will be taken in the
case of the State VS.. Pagan and the
case of the State VS.. Bies and others,
the two remaining defendants in these
cases who have not yet been before
the bar of justice being out of the
county at this time, it is said. Both
Of these cases were founded upon
charges of resisting an officer and a
majority of the defendants In the two
suits have since pleaded guilty and
paid fines.
The case of the State VS.. McGaffee
and Denison, two well known young
men from the Whitebird section, has
been settled, it is said, the defendants
having paid the costs of the case the
first of the week AT this time it ap-
pears as If the Wilder case, based on
charge of the larceny of livestock,
will be the only case tried on the
criminal docket this term.
Judgment in two foreclosure suits
was entered this week. These were
the case brought by George Killmar
VS.. j. ID. Hendren and others, and Sol
omon Pool VS.. Emelie Oliver ct al.
