Made An Early Move

A. H. Nau grabbed Father
Time by the forelock last Friday
morning and moved his stock of
furniture and undertaking goods
into the new Nuxoll block ad-
joining the Chronicle Office, hav-
ing the work completed and all
hands discharged before many of
our citizens were out of their
beds. Tony routed out fat"
Hamlin about three o'clock and
got the big auto truck into opera
ton and, with two men in the
old store, two on the dray and
one at the receiving end, got the
stock moved into the new loca-
ton in rapid fire order. He now
has his stock nicely arranged in
the new quarters and has a much
nicer store than ever before.

Polers Enjoyed Fine Vacation

Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Poler and
Mrs. Bart Simon returned late
last week from an auto trip to
coast points and the former is
now back at work again at the
local railroad station. Mr.. Poler
said they had the trip of their
lives and he hopes to be able to
repeat it in a couple of years.
Fhey left this place about the
first of August with Prof. and
Mrs. L. C, Mcmahon and autoed
to Portland over. the Columbia
River Highway and, after spend
ing a few days in the Rose City"
went on north to Olympia, Ia
coma and Seattle, thence across
the Cascades to Spokane and
home. They travelled over hum
dreds of miles of hard surface
highway, saw more fine scenery
than the average person believes
exists, stopped often at camping
places along the road and en-
joyed life to the fullest extent
every day they were gone. Mr..
Poler says the only thing he will
change in the program should he
make a second trip will be to
take their beds along and camp
out all along the route. He says
the trip is one of the finest in the
west and we'll worth the time of
anyone to make if they can pos
sibly get away from their work
long enough to enjoy the outing.

Elevator Going Skyward

Work on the new elevator for
the Cottonwood Milling company
is progressing rapidly and the
cribbing is now about twenty
feet in the air and going skyward
at a rapid pace. The crew is
laying over 1000 feet of lumber
daily and will soon have the ele-
vator completed if the mills are
able to provide material as it is
needed. The machinery for the
elevator was ordered shipped
this week and will arrive in time
to be installed Immediately after
the building is completed, after
which grain will be received.
The contract for the -four mill
building has not yet been award
ed but work on this structure will
no doubt commence soon after
the elevator is ready for opera
ton.

They Had A Great Trip

Otto Aichlmayr and M. S.
Hendrickson returned Tuesday
evening from their trip to Wyo-
ming, having been gone just two
weeks on the trip. They went
south by way of the Salmon river
to Weiser and Boise, thence to
Twin Falls and Pocatello and on
into Wyoming. After visiting at
Big Piney they decided to return
home by the northern route and
motnred up through the Jackson
Hole country, through Yellow
stone National Park to Living
ston, thence to Missoula and
across the mountain to Wallace,
thence to Spokane and home.
7 h ey report atrocious roads
through southern Idaho and say
they were not able to make more
than rs miles a day when run
ming from twelve to fourteen
hours. This threw them far be-
hind their running schedule and
caused them to choose the north
ern route for the return trip even
though the distance was consider
ably greater. The trip through
the park was made at the time
the railroad strike was threaten
ing and everyone was trying to
get out to the railroads and home
before the strike went into effect,
consequently the places in the
park were all closed and they
had no chance to view any of
the wonders there. They report
fine roads through Montana,
north Idaho and Washington and
say this route is fine one for
autoists and can not be equalled
for scenic beauty, but advises all
to steer clear of south Idaho.
They travelled 1886 miles on the
trip and spent only $35.75 for
gasoline, even though they had
to pay 80 and 60 cents a gallon
for gas in some places. They
had no accidents other than a
few punctures and blowsouts and
passed many large cars that were
laid up by the road for repairs,
Mr.. Hendrickson says he found
the property he went to look at
in very good condition and will
be able to sell it easily for $35 an
acre or better as soon as the
patent is received. He says that
country is devoted almost ex-
clusively to cattle raising and the
farms are only hay ranches
where feed is put up for the
cattle herds in the winter.

Conferred With Mr.. Booth

E. L. Parker, Geo. M. Robert
son, W. B. Hussman, Felix Mart
zen and the writer motored to
Grangeville Monday afternoon
and met State Engineer Booth,
who stated that he expected to
have engineers in this section
within a very short time to take
up the work of locating the state
highway north from Whitebird
to the Lewis county line. At
that time the new. engineer will
consider all tentative locations
and will then decide which is the
most feasible and which will
serve the best interests of the
state and the inhabitants of the
territory through which the road
will pass. Mr.. Booth stated that
t h e present survey between
Whitebird a n d Grangeville i S
very unsatisfactory and will
probably be relocated. From
present indications it would seem
that the chances for getting the
road located across the west side
of the prairie are very good and
the engineer sent in to do the
surveying will be given every
opportunity to size up the local
situation before making his fina
decision.

about 160 votes were cast out of
more than five hundred in this
precinct. Most of the farmers
were busy in the harvest fields
and, as the contests on the tick
cts were not serious ones,
only small vote was cast. In
fact, the vote in both county and

largely to the town population,
while the country voters paid at
tention to their work in hand and
left their voting until the gener-

In its effort to shut on the work OF
ewindlers who are operating on needy
farmers under guise Of forming farm
loan associations tho new Farm Loan
Board has made public a typical case.
Jacob J. Blumer. OF Benchland, Mont,
wrote the board that he had been APP
preached by an agent Of q promotion
concern who alleged that he had been
employed by the Government to repre-
sent one OF the twelve Federal land
banks. one Of which, he stated, would be
established in Montana. 4.
The agent stated that ne would pro-
vide for Montana, Idaho. and Wyoming,
and Informed the farmers that to be-
come borrower each one would be re-
quired to buy a share Of stock costing
SIS for each 5000 loan. Mr.. Blumer
gave the man check for $3.50. covering
ten shares. and later received q notice
to pay $50 moro.
Agents OF the same concern also ap-
preached A. T. Peck. OF Fish Tail,
Mont. and made the same representa-
lions to him. He stated to the Farm
Loan Board that these gents had told
him they had 5000 shareholders in Mon
tana and wyoming. He made one pay
ment OF SO and obligated himself for
several more. That the same kind of a
scheme is In operation In Kansas is
shown by letter from 8. A. Altman, Of
that state, who told OF giving $500 on
such a proposition.
