FA|RMONT Objects
TO sept. MORNS''
SENSATION CAUSED WHEN Az
THORiTIES ARREST MIXED
SEXES OF NUDE BATHERs.

The Fairmont Times editorial
writer gives expression to the senti-
ment Of the people Of that prosper
Gus and enlightened community in
the following spicy description OF an
interrupted outing, of which the
principal feature was an Adam and
Eve splash:
THE policy followed by Il police
department on Sunday indicates that
Fairmont and vicinity is no place
for September Morn" exhibitions.
Two young women who insisted on
taking a dip in a creek near Camp
Cornwell without eye!s a one-piece
bathing suit or even the well+known
f. L. which made up the wardrobe
of the first man and woman. were ar
rested Sunday by two local police
men and are now resting as comfort
ably as might be expected in the city
Jail. AS soon as arrangements can
be completed the girls will be ship
ped back to Morgantown and Graf
ton, their home towns, where. per-
haps the aesthetic taste is more fully
developed and better appreciated.
1t might be said for the young
women arrested by the officers that
while they were breaking the law,
at tue same time they appeared to
be the real goods in the way of wood
nymphs and September Morns."
If one of the officers who made the
arrests was correctly reported by a
press representative, the young wom-
en- were the closest to- the real thing
in wood nymphs visiting Fairmont in
many moons.
Not having an intimate knowledge
of wood nymphs and September
! Morns,'' save from the trips through
art galleries. we are unable to deny
or verify the statement of this of
ficer; but knowing him to be a man
whose word is as good as gold, we
accept his statement at face value.
without seeking to find out the
source Of his complete knowledge of
the subject in question:.
But what We started out to say
was that the incident of Sunday is
conclusive evidence that although
F'airmont is speeding UP considerably
and hitting the high places in indus
trial and community development,
such fo~wardness as exhibited by the
nude neighbors from Morgantown
and Grafton is not appreciated here.
and all those wishing to splash in
two inches of water without any raj
ment except that provided by Ma
ture viii D. well to hire a bath room
for the spot.

Miss Harriet L. Williams, of Ogden,

were united IN marriage at 2:3O
o'clock yesterday afternoon, the cersr

der. Of the Methodist church, at the

bride reached Lewiston yesterday
morning from her Iowa home and Mr..
Caufield arrived here Tuesday from

are old sweethearts who had not met
for 20 years.
Mr.. Caufield is well-known
Clearwater county resident, his home
place being near Orofino. They will
leave for that point this afternoon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Caufield arrived in
Orofino Saturday afternoon and the
Orofino band planned to serenade
them in the evening. But when the
boys and number of friends called
at the hotel where the bride and
groom were supposed to be they dis

slipped away to Mr.. Caufeld's farm

New Bakery Is Pr0SDeriOuS.

Orofno's new bakery is proving a
very successful proposition, the busi-
ness being much better than Mr..
Lomax, the proprietor hoped for.
The quality of the product is as good
as any bakery in the Northwest can
turn out, and the service is first class.
The people are showing their appre-
citation by giving Mr.. Lomax about
all he can do, keeping him on the
jump to meet the demands of the
trade he has already built up. Hun
dreds of dollars that formerly went to
Spokane and Lewiston bakers now
stay in Orofino. The people are
keeping their money at home and not
only getting better bread, but getting
it strictly fresh.

Here is the situation in nutshell.
Suppose the people defeat the Clear
water Highway proposition. The Elk
Highway District, which takes in
S., 600, 900 of the valuation of Clear
water county, then comes up for set
tlement. Who can vote on this prop
osition? Only people living in the
Elk Highway District, and this dis
trict will be created. Then what?
Where will Weippe get off? Where
will Fraser farmers find themselves?
Hadn't the people of Weippe better
stop and do little figuring?
Are the people going to turn over
S., 900, 900 of taxable property of the
county to Elk River, exempting all
timber from any part in the develop
ment of this county? That is exactly
what will happen if the Clearwater
Highway District is defeated. And
yet some are so dense they cannot get
this thru their heads. They propose
to vote down the first proposition, the
only one they can vote on, and lei
Elk River take over SIS. 900, 900 of the
taxable property of the county, leav.
ing the rest of the county, including
the Weippe farmers, to keep up the
roads and bridges. The Weipp'
prairie farmers have been getting
considerably more road funds thar
they have paid in. The Greer bridg'
was built, not from local road O.
bridge funds, but from the genera
funds, 70 per cent of which came from
timber taxes.
Defeat the Clearwater Highwa,
District and what becomes of tn
Greer grade? Ask County Commits
sioner Snyder how he proposes to kee
the Greer grade up when the Ell

Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. Wise and son
Frances of Spokane arrived last week
for visit with their daughter, Mrs.
E. A. Schilling. Mr.. Wise returned
home Monday morning leaving Mrs.
Wise and the boy to visit for couple
of weeks. Mr.. Wise now owns the
Ellis Small place near Glenwood, and
his visit here was for the purpose of

Mrs. Wise and the children will move

the summer on their place, away from
the dust and heat of the city during
the warm months. They think Oro-
fino one of the beauty spots of earth
during the spring and summer, and
for that reason purchased the Small
place.
