LAST FRIDAY FAVORABLE TO
IDAHO GOLD & RUBY co.
ALL ACTS WERE LEGITIMATE
Leonia Property no Longer Tied Up
in Litigation.

Judge +. H. Rudkin of the fed
eral court, in decision handed down
Friday at Spokane, upheld the acton
of the Idaho Gold and Ruby Mining
company, operating at Leonia, Idaho,
in issuing notes aggregating $780,
600 to its president, j. M. Schnat-
terly.
Suit to set aside the notes was in
stituted by T. I. Laughlin, minority
stakeholder, who alleged fraud
Schnatterly decided the company
placer claims for the notes.
The court held against further is
suance for the notes.
Officials and stockholders of the
Idaho Gold and Ruby Mining COM
pany are elated over the decision in
their favor handed down by Judge
Frank RudlSin in the superior court
on Friday last" said John M.
Schnatterly, president, Saturday in
Spokane. "The case was brought by
1T. l. Laughlin in behalf of himself
and other stockholders and was di-
rected against the corporation, it's
trustees and myself.
"Laughlin alleged that the COM
pany had no authority under the law
to issue preferred stock, of which it
issued 100000 shares to draw in
terest at per cent per annum, and
held that this preferred stock was
not stock at all, but simply obliga-
tons of the company issued for rails
ing money. We conceded that there
was some question as to the legal
| ity of this issue and consented to q
prohibition by the court against fur
Their issue, but asked that all stock
heretofore issued or contracted for
should not be affected. The court
assented to this.
'The plaintiff claimed that l used
my personal stock to raise money
which the company used and that
in settlement with me the company
had, by vote of the stockholders, is
sued to me s191 900 of the COM
pany's promissory notes, payable in
five years.
ut was claimed that the stock
used by me was gift by me to the
company and that the company did
not expect to pay for it. 1t was
shown that l turned into the treas
ury of the company for it's own use
$4,000 in cash and 100000 shares Of
my stock in part consideration for
the notes.
'The decision of Judge RudlSin
holds that the notes given me for
s191,194 were legal and binding
obligation of the corporation"

MOORE BROS.
WILL RETIRE
WILL BEGIN TODAY TO DISPOSE
OF A MERCHANDISE STOCK
VALUED AT $4,000
IN BUSINESS HERE IL YEARS
Reasons for Retiring-Other Bust
ness Plans Contemplated.


during the past few months among
the business firms of the city but
none have caused more surprise and
none have been more unexpected
than the retiring from business of
the firm of Moore Bros, the an
nouncement of which was made this
morning.
Moore Bros, clothiers, have been
conducting a successful business in
Bonners Ferry for the past IL years.
The firm is composed of Frank
Moore, A. c. Moore and John T.
Moore, the first two brothers named
having actively conducted the bus
mess since it was first started in
1904.
The only reason that the Moore
brothers give for retiring from bus
mess at this time is that they have
plans in view which will require
their attention in the future. An
announcement along this line may be
made at later date
Moore Bros. expect that it will
be several months before they can
completely dispose of their stock
They have on hand in the neigh
borhood of $4,000 worth of suits,
overcoats, hats, shoes and furnish
ings of all kinds for men and boys
and this stock will be placed on the
market, beginning today, at whole
sale prices. While the stock is be-
ing closed out all sales will be strict
ly cash and all open accounts will
be closed up at once.
A. c. Moore stated today that if
buyer could be found the stock
and fixtures would be sold immedi-
ately. Having decided to retire from
business the firm is anxious to dis
pose of its holdings as quickly as
possible.
The A. C. Moore brick block, which
has been leased by Moore Bros, is
for lease. This building has been
occupied by Moore Bros. since it
was built in 1912.
The friends and patrons of Moore
Bros. sincerely regret that the firm
has decided to retire from business.
The members of the firm have
been active leaders in the promo
ton of all enterprises which have
had to do with the general welfare
of the community. If there was a
subscription list being circulated
Moore Bros. have generally headed
it with a liberal amount. In county
affairs, town business, church and
social circles, the Moore brothers
have been active leaders. In a COM
mercial way they have been pro-
gressive and have built up one of
the most paying business institu-
tons of the county, housing their
stock in building which is a cred
it to Bonners Ferry and display
ing it with fixtures which are moi
to be excelled in any city of the
northwest of the size of Boomers
Ferry. 1t is to be hoped that the
future plans Of the Moore brothers
will not necessitate their leaving
this community.

SWeeteninq.

Many people can remember when
brown sugar was practically the only
kind in use. The pioneers found it to
their taste. There are even today
places where white or loaf sugar has
never been seen on the table or in the
kitchen.
As for sorghum strip, that thick and
sweet product, it was used not only In
coffee or tea. but on pancakes and
warm biscuit. 1t was not half as bad
as it sounds. Molasses in coffee was
also common. We can also remember
the widows advice to the minister
who called to take dinner:
Have some more 'lasses in your cof-
fee, Mr.. Grimes. Have some more
'lasses. 'Twouldn't be none too good
for you if twas all 'lasses."
1t is not long step backward from
sugar to sorghum, from electric lights
to candles, from petroleum to whale
oil-Syracuse Post-Standard.

Would you mind telling u.s. she said,

thing but make money or who did any
thing in a public way with the money

The driver didn't know what to say.

money was the company's idea of what

Fort Atkinson.

Sunday, the new parochial school,
which has been erected by the st.
PauPS Lutheran congregation at the
corner of Bluff and Third Sts., was
dedicated with appropriate ceremonies.
According to Ray Tough, member
of Company B, who with Is other local
soldiers we're in the city for an over
Sunday visit, most of the Fort Atkin-
son soldiers have gained in weight since
they left Camp Douglas for the Mexi-
can border last July. Mr.. Tough said
he never felt better and that all the
other men were in excellent health.
He is of the opinion that the company
will return to Fort Atkinson between
Jan. Is and 81 Plans for the welcome
Fort Atkidson will give her returning
soldier boys have been completed. A
huge crowd will meet the train at the

StouQhton

About 70 people from Stoughton and
roundabout the country went to Utica
Sunday to attend gathering at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. c. O. Feiland.
1t is reported to have been in the ma
ture of surprise party for Mr.. and
Mrs. Felland, who own handsome
farm in that locality.
Mrs. Henry Wileman, who is here
from Chicago, guest of her daughter,
Mrs. Valentine Stoddard, is suffering
with an injury that prevents her return
home for the present. On boarding the
train in Chicago for Stoughton she sus
tanned broken breast bone. Mrs.
Wileman did not consider the matter of

The Wisconsin Dairy Products Co. is
the name of the new corporation that
took over the two local milk plants
r. G. Morey's and the A. j. Olson Milk
company sand farmers who have been
sending their milk to the latter place
were notified to make delivery to the
Morey plant which will handle the en-
tire milk supply until other arrange
ments are made The new corporation
is Incorporated with capital stock of
SIPS, 900, which is held by Armour &
Co., r. G. Morey and others. Mr..
Morey is president and w. III. Boomer,
late of ST. Louis and connected with
the Armours, is vice president. The
farmers and business men who bought
the bonds issued by the A. j. Olson
Milk Co. naturally are curious to learn
how the sale of the Oleson plant will
affect the status of the bonds. No an
nouncement on this subject has yet
been made by the new corporation, but
as far as we can learn. the transfer
will tend to stabilize the value of these
bonds. III. M. Clark of Chicago, who
will superintend, for the Wisconsin
Dairy Products Co., came up Saturday
and made deal with O. M. Turner for
the acquisition of more land to the west
of the Morey plant which will enable
the Dairy Products Co. to build the
condensery at the Morey plant instead
of charging the Olson building, as was
stated as probability last week. Work
on 100x60 foot addition at the west
end of the Morey plant will be begun
Immediately and will be pushed as fast
as the weather will permit. The con-
densery will require three boilers, we
understand, IF $50 h. p. each.

last Friday, relative to the proposed
increase in local and farm line tele-

that the increase should be made more
gradually.
