long life in Gods service, and be-
spoke an increased interest in the
many prayers of those who are pray
ing so fervently at present for his
beloved wife, who is now so near
the border land and has been for
several days.
At last EVENINGS service Dr.
Fooks again expressed his deep ap-
probation of the courtesy shown him
by the local dailics in allowing
such a liberal space for the reports
of the meeting-not to bring him
into the limelight, but to let some
who cannot attend get some idea of
what the meetings are meaning.
Following a sweetly- solo by
Miss higgins, and other musical
numbers, DR.. Fooks delivered anoth-
er strong sermon on Under the
Blood" his text being found in Elk
12:13-a promise made by God
through the lips of one of His serv-
ants to His people.
He said in part: "Th@ symbol of
protection to the people of Israel
was the blood of the Paschal lamb;
our protection is the blood of Christ.
God has made provision for every
man who will obey His voice, that
one seal being atoning blood of His
only Son. One great truth contained
in this Scripture is the universally
of condemnation We all think of
the gambler. the fallen woman, the
drunkard or some other black sin
| ner when we consider the ones who
will be lost we do not stop to think
that class includes the moral man,
as well. unless he has got under the
saving power of the blood of Jesus
Christ Another truth contained
| herein is the fact of substitution
The lamb was substituted for
Israel: but Christ is our substitution.
| Thirdly, we must appropriate this
substitution Just as Israel would
mot have been saved without appro-
jpriating the blood of the lamb that
was slain. so we cannot be protected
from Gods wrath unless we have the
blood of our Savior applied to oul
hearts.

RAPED WITH AN AXE HANDLE
Assault and Battery Case Tuesday
E. at Leonia Mining Camp


S. A. Deardoff plead guilty before
Probate Judge O'Callaghan Wednes-
day to the charge of assault and bat
terry and was fined $50 and costs
which were paid.
John Summersett was the COM
planning witness against Deardoff.
Sommersett is a former employee of
of the Idaho Gold & Ruby Mining
company at Leonia. Some time ago
he became involved in a disagree
ment with the president of the COM
pany, ]. NJ. Schnatterly, and his rela-
tions with the company were sew
cred. According to Spokane reports,
Somerset recently started an ac-
ton against Mr.. Schnatterly for
wages alleged to be due. Sommersett
has been working on mining proper
ties hear Troy. On July 4th he went
to Leonia and visited the property
of the Idaho Gold & Ruby Mining
company. After visiting with some
of his former friends Sommersett
went into an office building and
started to write a letter. About this
time Deardoff came into the building
and went out again. Deardoff has
DCtI VI Vic lQdliO OOlu
Ruby Mining company for some
years. According to reports when
Deardoff again entered the building
he carried an axe handle with which
he struck Sommersett over the head
several times, rendering him uncon-
scious.
Both men came to Bonners Ferry
the afternoon of July 4th. Sommer-
sett first swore to a complaint charg-
ing Deardoff with assault with intent
to kill, but later changed the charge
to plain assault and battery.
1t is alleged that Deardoff beat
Sommersett because he was of the
opinion that Sommersett's interests
were inimical to those of the Idaho
Gold e. Ruby Mining company and
its employees and because he believed
Sommersett's visit to the mine was
for the purpose of encouraging dis
cord or for spying.

A deal was consumated this week
whereby the law firm of Bottum &

braries in this part of Idaho.
Bottum & Wilson have been en-
gagged in the law business in Bon

republicans. That Governor Alex
ander is steadily losing ground, es-
pecially in his own party is quite
evident and l have found few dem
omcrats who showed any enthusiasm
for his candidacy. So far, the demo-
Gratis have made no effort to line
up a ticket and the republicans are
working carefully in picking the cam
didates with which they expect to
win. The sentiment in favor of a
northern man for congress is still
growing and feel confident that l
will be able to carry at least seven
or eight of the ten northern coun-

the strongest showing of strength
in the north will undoubtedly be able
to get the support in the southern
counties, and my efforts have been

The frame building adjoining the
south side of the Enterprise building
on Main street, is being remodeled
and newly painted and papered pre-
paratory to occupancy by the Bon
ner Bakery, of which C. w. Bowling
is the proprietor. Mr.. Bowling will
move to the new location as soon as
the building can be made ready and
plans to be ready for business there
the first of next week. Since coming
here Mr.. Bowling has built up a fine
bakery trade which he anticipates
will increase steadily. The Bonner
Bakery bread and pastry compares
in excellence, if it does not excel
that of any bakery in Spokane and
nearby cities and Mr.. Bowling is
deserving Of the support his business
is receiving. This fall he plans tc
go into the confectionery business
and will keep on hand large stock
of homemade candies.

AUTO ACCIDENT NEAR NAPLES
Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley and Mr.. and
Mrs. Spoerry Have Narrow Escape

What might be termed a lucky
auto accident occurred last Friday
night when C. w. Megquier's Over
land auto, driven by j. V. Stanley,
went into the ditch about two miles
east of Naples and was burned up.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley and Mr.. and
Mrs. G. w. Spoerry were returning
from Standpoint where they attended
the reception and meeting held in
honor of the National Parks Highway
Commission. The accident occurred
when the car Slowed off the road in
recent fill of loose dirt. The front
wheel struck a snag and was badly
bent and before the car was stopped
it ran onto and straddled a large log
by the side of the road. The car did
not turn over and a hasty examina-
ton seemed to show that no damage
had been done except to a front
wheel.
d. C. McColl and several friends
had also attended the Standpoint meet
ing and arrived at the scene of the
accident within a short time. McColl
left for the Brookside Stock COM
pany's ranch to get team with
which to haul the auto off the log.
After McColl left, Mr.. Stanley lit a
match in the effort to see how badly
the car was damaged and to prepare
for hauling it off the log. When the
match was nearly burned out he
threw it in the brush by the side of
the car. The same instant the match
hit the ground there sprang up a
blaze of flame which soon enveloped
the car and completely demolished it
and its contents. Messrs. Stanley
and Spoerry barely escaped being Sc
verely burned.
1t seemed that when the car ran
onto the log the gasoline tank had
sprung a leak and the gasoline had
dripped over the log and onto the
ground into the brush by the side of
the road. No one realized that there
was leak in the gasoline tank.
Had the accident happened a few
feet further west or east it seems
certain that the car would have
turned over and dropped down the
bank from five to ten feet, and very
probably have resulted in serious in
juries to the occupants.

South Bench Folks Celebrate

The residents of the South Bench
enjoyed a delightful Fourth of July
picnic Tuesday morning and after
noon in the woods near Burns Sid
ing. The feature of the days out
ing was the sumptuous basket din

hour and which was composed of the
good things to eat for which the
ladies of the South Bench have gained
an enviable reputation. The after
noon passed most pleasantly, the
older folks telling stories and en-

younger folks played games and
amused themselves in various ways.
In the evening the company gath

Senator Elliott returned Wednes-

Northern counties of the state. He
attended the get-together banquet of
the republicans at the Coeur d'Alene
on Monday night and delivered the
4th of July address at a large gath

Senator Elliott said: "The confident
feeling among republicans through
out the counties visited by me is
most remarkable. The nomination of
Hughes and the rally brought about
by the attitude of Roosevelt has
cleared the atmosphere and the be-
lief in general is that it is going
to prove a republican year.

CANCEL WATER co. FRANCHISE
Drastic Action Taken by the Village
Board of Bonners Ferry

At an adjourned meeting held this
morning the town board of trustees
unanimously passed a resolution in
which the franchise of the Bonner
Water & Light company was de-
clared null and void and of no fur
ther effect in the village of Bonners
Ferry. According to the resolution
adopted the board stated as its reas-
ons for canceling the franchise that
the Bonner Waer & Light company
had failed for 10 days past to supply
the city with water for domestic use
and part of the time had failed to
supnly the city with water for fire
protection and that the company had
not needed the demands of the coun-
Gil made Wednesday night in which
it was ordered that the water serv-
ice in the city be resumed by Thurs
day night at midnight.
1t was ordered that Manager Gale
and A. H. Featherstone, owner, be
notified of the action of the council
Immediately.
Manager Gale this morning stated
this morning that he was making ev-
cry human effort to connect the wa
ter pump on the Kootenai river with
a main below the Spokane Interna-
tional railway bridge and that in all
probability he would have the con-
nection made by this evening and
that then water service could be re-
sumed.
At the meeting of the city council
held Wednesday evening the matter
of forming a special improvement
district for the purpose of construct
ing concrete sidewalks on the west
side of Main street was taken up and
thoroughly discussed. A majority of
the property owners concerned were
present and protested against the im-
provement at the present time. The
matter was not definitely decided.
Complaints were made to the board
on account of stock being allowed to
run at large in the outskirts of the
city. The council agreed to arrange
for the impounding of all stock run
ming at large and to enforce the full
penalty of the law when violated.
The matter of securing an imme-
diate resumption of water service on
the part of the Bonner Water & Light
company was taken up and it was
decided to take steps to cancel the
franchise of the company if the serv-
ice was not resumed at II o'clock last
evening. The council so notified

NORTH IDAHO NEEDS TO
LOON A LEIDLE OUDT"

Falls and would make some appraise-
ments while over there. When the
applications were brought before the
board there was nothing to indicate
but that the applications were all
for different pieces of property. The
register read the applications, the ap-
praisement on the Huston loan was
by Appraiser Nash and was OK'd by
Commissioner Day, and this loan
Mr.. Huston had explained was upon
his fathers farm. The two other
applications upon which Mr.. Huston
made the appraisements conveyed no
intelligence to the board except that
they were two Independent loans, and
the fourth loan which was granted
with these three was a legitimate ap-
plication and loan. Mr.. Barker fur
ther explained that so far as the
board was concerned that ended the
transaction. Abstracts for loans are
not required by the board at the
time applications for loans are made
and are furnished after the board has
passed upon the loans, the abstracts
being sent to the attorney generals
office and upon showing title are re-
turned to the registers office and the
warrants lOr the loans reledSeu upon
the OK of the abstracts by the at
torney generals office. 1t is the bus
mess of the attorney generals Office
to pass upon the title and not upon
the ethics of the loan.
Events which transpired immedi-
ately after the loan was granted
when Auditor Huston had the war
rants signed by Governor Alexander,
took them to the registers office, and
presented the warrants to an Idaho
Falls bank after the register had
placed them in an envelope with an
escrow letter, were matters which
were unknown to any member of the
board previous to their examination
into the loan in May. Mr.. Barker's
statement befor the committee was
plain and convincing.
The state central committee took
up the matter of the Huston loan and
passed a resolution condemning Hus-
ton for betraying the confidence of
the land board with an expression
of regret that the committee could
not force his resignation as auditor.
