WOULD RUSH ORE HAULING
Plan to Secure More Power at Idaho
Continental Mine-125 at Work.

A. Hickman, president and gen.
eral manager of the Idaho ,Continen-
tai Mining company, of Hickman,
Idaho, was in the city last night and
today looking for horses with which
to haul ore at the mine. He was ac-
companied here by his nephew, Hans
Hickman, who left last evening for
Pullman, Wash, to resume his
studies at the University of Wash
ington.
Mr.. Hickman states that 1875
men are being employed by his COM
pany. The mine is being operated
with a day shift and two shifts are
being worked in the concentration. If
it were not for the lack of water
three shifts would be worked in the
concentration and two IN the mine.
Mr.. Hickman has had engineers
working on his power problems and
hopes to put in another unit next
spring whereby he will get a greater
fall OF water and so more power,
and thus be able to keep a full crew
working through next winter.
The ore hauling (from the mine
to Porthill the distance is 20 miles)
is progressing nicely and 20 tons of
concentrates are being taken from
the mine daily. This does not keep
up with the output, and at present
the ore haulers have some 400 tons
of concentrates on hand at the mill.
1t is on this account that Mr.. Klock-
mann is endeavoring to secure more
teams, for which he pays S35 a
month, everything furnished except
the harness. He pays $3.50 per day
for transfers.

The girls if the Eastport Sunday
School sent to DIR. Fry, for the Bon
ners Ferry hospital, this week a
handsome present in the shape of
a quilt which they had made during
their spare moments.
This is the first gift of the kind
which has ever been presented to
the local hospital, and it goes with
out saying it was a most accepta-
BILE one, it being a token of appre-
citation on the part of the Eastport
folks, of having at their conven-
fence such an institution which, it
is we'll known, is not paying in
vestment.
Mrs. w. H. Ayres is superintend-
ent of the Eastport Sunday
School and has held the position for
three years. She reports that the
school is a flourishing one and that
a great deal of interest is taken in
it by the. old and young alike at
EaStport.

Statesmen SEE
LOCAL PLANT
SOME THIRTY REPRESENTA-.
TIVES OF WEYERHAUSER
SALES co. HERE SOON
SALES COMPANY JUST ORGANIZED
Represent Mills of Various Towns of
Idaho and Washington.

Vice President and General Man
ager R. H. Mccoy and his son, H.
j. Mccoy, assistant general manager,
Bonners Ferry Lumber company, en-
tertained here yesterday a company
of lumber statesmen of the Weyer-
hauser Sales company.
The men were shown through the
mills of the local company and made
an inspection Of the stocks. At noon
they were the guests of R. H. and H.
j. Mccoy at a New Years turkey
dinner at The Grill.
During the week some 20 more
statesmen of the Weyerhauser COM
pany will visit this plant. The sales
men are visiting all the plants in
the northwest which their company
represents. The men who were here
yesterday are statesmen from Mime
sofa and North Dakota points.
The Weyerhauser Sales company
is a new organization just formed
with headquarters in the Merchants
National building at st. Paul and
with offices in all the chief western
consuming centers. 1t is a joint
agency by which all the Weyerhau-
ser mills in the lake states, the In
land Empire, on the Coast and in the
south will sell their cut in territory
west Of Chicago. In place of sepa-
rate forces of travelling men and
separate sales offices, all will be
handled as one, giving a strong
force of statesmen calling upon the
trade frequently and able to fill any
order promptly from the plant best
located to give quick shipment. Prac-
tically all the principal American
woods will be represented. The
Idaho mills in the agency are the
Potlatch, Humbird, Dover, Bonners
Ferry, Rutledge and Boise-Payette.
Others often classed as Weyerhauser
concerns are the individual property
of lumbermen who are also inter-
ested in some one or more of the
Weyerhauser companies and will be
handled individually as heretofore.
The Idaho plants mentioned will,
when all additions under way are
in operation, have a capacity of
3,050,00O feet daily and with many
years timber behind each AS other
operations are developed they will
also have a place in the organiza-
ton.

STORE AT NAPLES BURNS
Frank Herzig Suffered Heavy Loss
Yesterday Morning.

The Frank Herzig general mer-
chandise store at Naples was totally
destroyed by fire yesterday morn
ing. No particulars Of the fire have
reached this city owing to the fact
that all telephone connections were
destroyed.
1t is known that the store was
burned to the ground and that a
$4,000 stock of general merchandise
was burned, as we'll as the contents
Of Mr.. Herzig's housekeeping apart
ments, which adjoined the store. It
is also understood that greater
part of the postoffice records were
destroyed. According to word re-
ceived here this morning mr.. Herzrg
and family have been visiting at
Reardan, Wash, and were not at
Naples at the time of the fire. The
loss is partially covered by insur-
ance. Mr.. Herzig bought the Naples
store from a Mr.. Olney about a year
and a half ago. Prior to the pur-
chase he was in the meat market
business here.

KING SELLS THE COMMERCIAL
Henry Driscoll Purchases Welllnown
Bonners Ferry Hostilcry

The Commercial, one of the lead
ing hotels of the city, changed hands
yesterday, Walter King selling the
furnishings and good will of the
business to Henry Driscoll, recently
of Maiden, Wash. The new proprie-
tor took immediate possession. Mr..
King plans to leave soon for Seattle
where he will spend week visiting
with friends and relatives. He will
return to Bonners Ferry for a few
days before going to his former
home at Muscatine, Iowa. Mr.. King
has no definite plans for the future.
Mr.. Driscoll and wife arrived here
Wednesday. For several months past
they have been running a leading
hotel of Maiden. Mr.. Driscoll is
a former railroad man, having fol-
lowed this business for 20 years.
When he quit he was conductor on
the Milwaukee road.
He is we'll pleased with the pros
poets for a good hotel business in
Boomers Ferry and together with
Mrs. Driscoll is sure that he will
be well satisfied with his invest
ment here and that he will make
a success of it.
Mr.. Driscoll steps into a long
established business and becomes the
manager Of a modern hotel. The
prosperous business he will enjoy
has been built up largely through
the efforts of the retiring proprietor,
Walter King, who has been in the
hotel business in this city for nearly
seven years. When he first came
to Bonners Ferry Mr.. King was as
ISOLATED with Charles Grove. A
little over year ago Mr.. King
bought out Groves interests.
Mr.. King has made many warm
friends in the city. He has proven
himself a thorough, capable and
enterprising young business man and
of a friend winning disposition, and
it is to be regretted that he is to
leave this city.

DISCUSS IMPORTANT MATTERS
Local Commercial Club Holds Inter-
esting Meeting Tuesday Evening

At the meeting of the Kootenai
Valley Commercial club held last
Tuesday evening several matters of
more than usual Importance to the
community were up for discussion.
The question of securing the loca
ton of a paper mill here called
forth considerable discussion and in
this connection a letter was read
from the Menasha Paper Company
of Ladysmith, Wis. The writer
stated that in his opinion before a
paper mill could be operated at a
profit here heavier duty should be
put on imported paper, but that a
speciality mill could be operated at
a profit.
A plan whereby the grade cross
ing at the Great Northern tracks
on Main street might be eliminated
was proposed by Frank Clapp. 1t
was his suggestion that a viaduct
could be built from the Park addi-
ton road east of the Great Northern
water tank and west of the court
house, thus securing a better grade
and at the same time doing away
with the danger of surface cross
ing.
A request for the statements of
actual settlers in this section cover
ing their experiences here was re-
ceived from E. C. Leedy, general
immigration agent of the Great Nor
thern, said statements to be used
in the roads home seeker literature.
]. F. McGlocklin was appointed a
committee to attend to the matter.
The matter of dyking the river
was also discussed, and President
Fry suggested that before any dyk-
ing was done the bank of the river
should be protected from the bridge
east similar to that done from the
bridge west.
A communication from the Club
of Commerce of Twin Falls was
read. 1t suggested that pressure be
brought to bear on legislators to
repeal certain sections of a state
law so as to make it impossible for
persons not eligible to citizenship
to own land in the state.
State aid for the clearing of log
ged off lands was also discussed.
The next regular meeting of the
club is scheduled for Tuesday eve
ming, January 9, at o'clock, in the
court room of the court house. AL
persons who have the welfare of the
community at heart are urged tc
attend.

TO CREATE
new COUNTY
SPIRIT LAKE EDITOR WAS
HERE IN INTERESTS OF
COUNTY DIVISION PLAN
FAVORABLE EXPRESSIONS HERE
New County Would Give the North
Greater Representation.

A. l.. EARN, proprietor of the
Spirit Lake Herald, was in Bonners
Ferry last Wednesday in the inter-
ests Of the proposed new county of
Lake, which the people of Spirit
Lake hope to have created from
parts of Kootenai and Bonner coun-
ties. Spirit Lake is to be the county
seat Of the new county if the legis-
lature is favorable to the bill Gre
ating Lake County which will be
presented early in the session.
Mr.. Hearin states that the pro-
posed county of Lake has six times
the valuation and so per cent more
area than is required for the organi-
cation of new counties under the
Idaho law. He figures that the
cutting off of portions of Bonner
and Kootenai counties will not seri-
ously affect them as they will yet
have in their boundaries a sufficient
area and valuation to make them
rank among the largest counties of
the state.
Under the present plans of divi-
sion, Lake county would have an
assessed valuation of S6,509, ASSOC.
1t would cover $4,000 acres of
surveyed land of which it is claimed
100000 has been retarded in de-
velopment by the lack of roads.
Mr.. Hearin also puts forth the
claim that the proposed county di-
vision measure would result in Civ
ing the north a little more power
in the legislature.
OF the area of the proposed new
county 200 square miles is to be
taken from Bonner county and will
include the towns of Granite, Carey
wood, Clagstone, Harlem, Bayview.
1896 square miles is to be taken
from the present area of Kootenai
county and in this district are in
cluded the towns of Rathdrum,
Spirit Lake and Twin Lakes.
Mr.. Hearin met with encourage
ment here. The people of this dis
trict are too we'll satisfied with their
own experiments in the way Of
county division not to-. want their
neighbors to enjoy the same rights
and privileges. 1t is very probable
that the Boundary county delega-
ton to the legislature will favor
and help the new county division
bill.
