ture advocating industrial syndi-
calism. The men are Tom Salo,

in house at Santa owned by

ted belonging to the l. w. w. but
the remainder denied membership
in that organization. Salo is said
by the officers to have been in
the I. w. w. jungle camp al
Fernwood for two weeks. Makey

weeks and when ordered by the
officers to either go to work OF

ARRESTED FOR CRIME
COMITTED A YEAR AGO

The following article in regard
to Albert Champaign, formerly of
ClaFkia, was taken from the
Spokesman-Review Of Thursday
morning:
Alleged to have fled a year
ago and to have caused one man
to lose an arm and wounded an
other in a shooting scrape at
Clarkia, Idaho, Albert Champaign,
a woodsman, was arrested yester-
day in a downtown hotel by De-
tectives Fordyce and Mason.
Champaign is said to have con-
fessed to the shooting, which
occurred August z, 1916. Three
weeks ago the officers discovered
he was i'm Spokane, but after a
few days he dropped from sight
and was not seen until yesterday.
"The sheriff Of Shoshone coun-
ty is expected to arrive with
warrant for Champaign's arrest"
The two men who were shot by
Champaign were Ed. Clinnert and
G. man named Graham, both OF
Clarkia. Clinnert and Champaign
became involved in an argument
ending in a fight in which Cham
paign, who had been drinking
heavily, was worsted. Later the
trouble was renewed Graham
taking a part in it on the side Of
Clinnert, whereupon Champaign
drew revolver and began firing
at his opponents. Clinnert was
shot through the hand and Gra-
ham received a bullet in his arm
through the elbow.
Champaign escaped to the
woods and although a search was
made for him by the Shoshone
authorities he had no doficulty
in eluding his pursuers as he is
an experienced woodsman. It is
/ thought that friends kept him
supplied with food until he found
an opportunity to get out of the
country.

st. Maries, Idaho.
August p, 1917.
To the Patrons of the
st. Maries Schools:
School will open on Monday,
September 3rd, and on that date
will begin the most important
year in the history of the st.
Maries schools. The reason for
this great Importance is the war.
The first thought of our nation
is the war and its successful ter

the nation should be for its own
future prosperity and progress,
which cannot be obtained without
q trained citizenship. To create
this trained citizenship of the
future the schools must begin
>iInmediately to do, more than
ever before, their work quickly
and we'll. We accept this as our
necessary work and therefore we
consider this our most important
year and we are going to do our
utmost TO make it our most sue
cessful year.
We are ready to begin the
years work. Our teaching force
is complete and is more efficient
than ever. Everything will be in
readiness to begin work without
delay.
The same arrangements as
last year, with regard to the
rlace Of attendance of pupils,
will hold. They are as follows
All high school students, includ-
ing all from the seventh to
twelfth grades, go to the high
schoT building, excepting those
living at Cherry Creek; all pupils
of the 18th, fifth and sixth
grades, Excepting those at Cherry
Greek, viii go to the Lincoln
School; all pupils living at Cherry
Greek will attend the schoO
there; all pupils of the first three

The local cash demand for wheat *ss

OF tht. cereal were fairly good, only few
cars of wheat were reported sold
The usual demand, for corn was also
not much In evidence and while white corn
sold fairly readily, the sales Of yellow and
mixed corn were very light, white corn
continued to sell at premium prices, the
commercial grades OF this variety being
quoted a. sl.4sa ai,bi, while the yellow

naily &c lower and barley also sold about

Oats was about the best seller on the

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.


Chicago. April Rehabilitation OF wheat
trading to the smallest volume In weeks
was accompanied today by decided low
erlng of prices. but there was something of
rally afterward owing to a notable fall
ing Of the United States visible supply total.
The markets closed unsettled at s2,32 to
s?.s?h for May. and sl.sTS to t1.ssN for
July. with the finish as 4 whole ranging
from &C decline 10 nc advance, as cont
pared with Saturdays latest figures. Corn
closed NC to &c down, and oats off Se
to Ilc, In provisions the outcome varied
from ave loss to a rise of lie.
Searcity@of buying ORDERS was especially
evident at the outset In the wheat pit. One
reason assigned was that urgent domestic
household demand for flour was said to
have flattoned out and that European call
for wheat was likely to be directed In the
main to the Canadian stock, owing 10 the
fact that grain carriers already had begun
to move on the great lakes, Reports Of
improved crop prospects in the. southwest
tended further TO handicap the bull side
OF the market, and SO too did current esti-
mates of probable 10 per cent increase
Of seeded acreage In Canada this season
as compared with 1915. Besides, heavy
margaihs asked from speculative operators
continued to act as curb to unduly Inn
pulsiye PUSHES to purchase on seemingly III
considered grounds.
Admission that the wheat market had
become temporarily somewhat oversold WAS
general in the last half OF the day, when
the extent of the decrease In tho visible
supply was apparent. The shrinkage
amounted to nearly 1900 bushels and
brought the total down to more than 10000,
900 bushels under the total at the corre-
spending time last year.
Corn, like wheat, sagged from lack Of
aggressive demand. A recovery In part took
place later influenced as In the case OF
wheat by falling off In the visible supply
figures Oats had no independent action.
Trade was light,
Heaylness of the hog and grain market
weakened provisions, but an active buying
movement as TO lard led atterwgrd to a
