SEEDMEN ELECT DIRECTORS
Sale of Seeds for past Season Esti-
mated at Over $4,000.

The stockholders of the Northern
Idaho Seed Growers association held
a meeting Wednesday afternoon at
the offices of Dore & McGlocklin
and heard a partial report of the
business which has been transacted
by the association for the season.
The seeds grown by the associa-
tion have been placed for sale in the
leading stores of many towns of
Northern Idaho and in some instanc-
es the association has not yet re-
,ceived returns from the sale of seed.
1t is estimated, however, that over
$4,000 worth of seeds were cold
this season and the members of the
association feel that there is every
prospect for increased business next
year.
The stockholders selected a new
board of directors as follows: E.
H. Wells, P. w. Owens, c. w. H.
Heideman, Ernest Owen, H. M. Les
lie. The board of directors will
elect the officers for the association.
Another meeting of the members
of the association has been called
for a week from tomorrow when
a final accounting of the sale of
seeds will be had.

KALISPELL IN ROUNDUP GAME
Is Offering Big Attraction for Aug
ust 16, IL and IS. 4

The modern, up-to-date roundup
is one of the most fascinating and
popular shows offered to the public.
Kalispell, Montana, has entered the.
list of enterprising towns in the
Northwest that is offering such an
attraction to the people. The purses
and prizes aggregating thousands of
dollars will attract some of the finest
array of talent that has entered the
arena Of a wild west show.
The Kalispell attraction will con-
sist of a day show held on the county
fair grounds, and a night show il
Illustrating the early days of the old
frontier town of Demersville, Mon
tana. Demersville was the one typi-
cal frontier town a quarter of a CEN
tury ago, located on the Flathead
river and was the distributiong point
for the Great Northern during it's
construction through the Rocky
mountains. 1t was the resort for
the worst characters, as we'll as the
home of some of the best and brav-
est people on earth. Many of the
frontier scenes and occurances of
those early days will be acted by
western men who lived in the old
town.
The big day shows for three days,
August 16, II, and Is, will be one
of the biggest wild west features
ever staged in the northwest.
Already the best show contestants
with strings of thoroughbred race
horses are arriving getting ready for
the big relay races. Programs of
the roundup have been mailed to
250 contestants throughout the en-
tire northwest and south. The pro-
gram is large and varied and the
purses and prizes large enough to
invite the best talent in the country.
Dell Blanchett of Pendleton, Ore,
the arena director, has arrived in
Kalispell, accompanied by a number
of the best performers among which
is Cuba Crutchfield, a rope artist
and steer roper. Mr.. Blanchett is
shipping in a carload of fine horses
that will be used in the contests.
The County Fair commission is
making some big improvements at
the county fair grounds, putting on
an addition to the grandstand, be-
sides building bleachers that will in
all accommodate approximately 5000
people. Ample accommodations will
be made to handle from $4,000 to
10000 people in Kalispell.
The great object of the executive
committee will be to put on the best
roundup yet offered to the people
of the northwest.

MAY HAVE
CLUB ROOMS
Kootenai Valley Commercial Club Has
Plan To Secure Free Quarters
On Main Street
WOULD BE OPEN TO che PUBLIC
Serve For Rest Room, Public Library
and Council Chambers

John R. Wiley, president of the
Kootenai Valley Commercial Club,
has called a meeting of the club for
Tuesday evening, August 1st, at
Kent's hall, when the matter of Sc
curing permanent club quarters will
be taken up.
Commercial club members have
made arrangements with Mrs. Belle
Bishop for the free use of the frame
building owned by her and until this
week occupied by c. d. Simonds'
Drug Store The building was NOV
ed recently to a lot on Main street
adjoining the IO.O.F. hall and own
ed by ]. w. Reid so that brick
block could be erected on the site
it formerly occupied. Mr.. Reid will
donate the use of the lot and the
commercial club members will now
ask the city council of Bonners Fer
ry to issue a permanent permit to
allow the frame building to remain
on the Reid lot. When the build
ing was moved the council gave a
temporary permit only.
If the present plans are carried
out the building will be repaired and
painted and the interior remodeled.
The walls and show windows will
be decorated with displays of grains,
grasses, fruits and vegetables.
The proposed commercial club
headquarters will be open to the
public at all times. 1t will serve
as a rest room for the farmers and
visitors from out-of-town and will
be used for public gatherings and
political meetings. 1t will be offered
to the city for use as a council cham
ber and will also be the home of
the Civic League and the Bonners
Ferry library.
At the commercial club meeting
Tuesday the report of the committee
in charge of the Boundary County
fair will make report and plans
for holding a fair will be decided
upon.
The club will also take up the mat
ter of having cleanup" day and
will probably decide upon a date
for a "good roads" day.
There are several other PROPOSE
tions to be brought before the club
and it is anticipated that large
number of club members will be in
attndenace at the Tuesday night
meeting.

SAYS BOISE TRIP NOT LEGAL.
ID. p. Dayton Questions Commission
ers' Right to Expense Money.

At a recent meeting of the coun-
ty commissioners the following COM
munication was read and filed but
no action was taken:
Bonners Ferry, Idaho,
July 6, 1916.
H. L. Shively; care of j. V. Stanley,
Clerk to Board of County Commits
sioners, Boundary County, Idaho:
AS a citizen and taxpayer of this
county, | hereby make written de-
mand upon you jointly and severally
that you pay back and refund to
the treasurer of Boundary County
the money you unlawfully collected
from said treasurer by reason of
making a trip to Boise, Idaho.
This money which l demand of
you to be refunded to the county
treasurer was unlawfully voted by
yourselves to reimburse yourselves
for an unlawful trip outside the coun-
ty wherein you act as commission
ers of said Boundary County.
See McCoombs VS.. Idaho News,
Dayton ruling of Judge Flynn, that
expenditures of county commission
ers outside of counties wherein they
perform their official duties are un-
lawful and therefore unjust. Heed
this.
d. P. DAYTON.
Upon being interviewed in regard
to the matter members of the board
of county commissioners informed the
Herald that they carefully looked
into the matter of the legality of
charging the expenses of the trip
to Boise to the county before they
went. They were advised by Coun-
ty Attorney Heighton that their
claims would be just and legal. AT
Boise the commissioners were fur
ther advised of the legality of such
claims by both the attorney gen.
eral of the state and by the members
of the association of prosecuting at
tornies of the state who met in
Boise the same week. The commits
sioners felt that the trip to Boise
was one which meant that they
would have an opportunity to become
better acquainted with the methods
employed in handling county busi-
ness in other counties and that upon
returning they would be better able
to serve Boundary county in an eco
nomical and efficient administration

HILL GIVES OUT INTERVIEW
Great Northern Division Point Sure
to Come Here Eventually.


to Come Here Eventually.
Louis w. Hill, president of the
Great Northern Railway Company
and one of the most noted railroad
magnates of the United States, was
visitor in Spokane last Friday and
said, in an interview to a Chronicle
reporter:
"We are arranging for shops at
Bonners Ferry, but the improvement
there will not interfere in the least
with the shops at Hillyard The
Hillyard shops are about the size
now to meet our requirements and
we have no extensions contemplat-
ed"
Coming from Mr.. Hill a state
ment like the above is additional
assurance that the Great Northern
will establish a division point here.
The company has a few more weeks
in which to take up the options on
124.57 acres of land selected east
of town for the railroad shops and
switching yards. 1t is rumored that
the Great Northern will, if the op-
tions are closed, start construction
work this fall.

WILL PLAN FOR
COUNTY FAIR
Committee of Commercial Club Will
Meet Monday Night Definite
Reports on Tuesday
MAY DECIDE UPON AWARDS
Propose To Show All OF the Resources
OF Boundary County

Steps are being taken to hold a
county fair this fall. The committee
heretofore appointed by President
Wiley of the Commercial Club will
meet next Monday night to discuss
the details. The time and location
of the grounds will then likely be de-
termined. A teachers institute, COM
posed of the teachers of Boundary
and Bonner counties will be held at
Bonners Ferry on the 10th day of
September and it has been suggested
that the fair be held during the same
period.
The County Fair committee con-
sists of Messrs. Sinclair, Kent,
Clapp, Little and Jones. The list of
awards will be considered at this
meeting and the judges may be APP
pointed. 1t is hoped that it will be
practicable to get entries of the best
livestock exhibits. Fruit, both fresh
and preserved will be displayed The
best specimens of these things ought
to be kept for the occasion. Spe-
cial prizes will be given for the
finest vegetable products. A mineral
display will be one of the attrac-
tions. The women of the county
will be asked to assist in an ex-
hibition of domestic products. 1t is
intended to leave nothing undone to
make the fair a big success and to
comprehend a complete exhibition
of Boundary county products and re-
sources. The railroads centering at
Bonners Ferry will be invited to
contribute exhibits. Several auto
manufacturing concerns have already
asked for information with a view
to putting their machines on exhi-
bition. An art display will be made.

SHIP ORE FROM COPELAND.
w. c. Donahoo Interested In Prom
Using Copper Property.

About one and one-half miles
north of Copeland is situated the
Rosy d. mining property, where re-
Gently good strikes have been made.
The lode now being worked runs
from three and a half feet to five
in width, showing copper ores such
as suprite and peacock copper or
bornite; the values ranging from
$50 to $160. The silica in the ores
secures low rate on smelting-about
$3.50 per ton. A car of the ore
will be shipped at the end of the
week to Trail, B. c., and shipments
will be made regularly as stoping
proceeds. The development consists
of tunnel in about 100 feet, from
which 70 feet in, shaft has been
sunk to a depth of so feet The
shaft shows high grade mineral, with
a perfect hanging wall. The prop
erty gives every indication of being
rich, the ore appearing to be per-
manent and carrying gold and sill
yer values in small quantities.
The property is held by a co-part-
nership, consisting of c. R. French,
and w. B. French of Standpoint, and
w. c. Donahoo of Copeland. The
claim is but half a mile from the
railroad, thus giving a short haul
in addition to the low smelling rates.
These two factors make it possible
to ship low grade ores at a profit
the French brothers estimating that
ores running as low as $25 can be
profitably worked and handled. The
partners have been working the pro-
perty one and a half years.
The French boys consider the Cope
land district to be a very promising
one, not only because of their own
luck, but because of other proper
ties now being worked and making
good showings. A small amount OF
tungston ore is being found in the
district, thus adding to the values
of the copper workings of the aver
age claim up there.-Sandpoint Re-
view.
