LENA Needs a Ferry or Bridge

The Boundary and Lincoln county
commissioners were in conference last
week at Libby in regard to putting in
new ferry or bridge at Lenia to be
paid for jointly by Boundary county
Idaho and Lincoln county, Montana
The matter of providing the people
of the LENA district with a means of
crossing the Kootenai river has been
a bugbear for some time. The ferry
was always out of order and was
washed away by the high water year
ago this spring. Last summer a low
water bridge was put in and part of
this also washed away and for several
months now the people of the district
have had no means of crossing the
river and so have not been able to dis
pose of farm produce and timber pro
ducts
The commissioners took no definite
action at their coterence last week.
1t was generally agreed that the pro-
posed new ferry or bridge should be
placed alta point about fourth of a
mile further up the river where bet
ter landing on the two sides of the
river is obtainable

Spend No Unnecessary Money

On two different occasions the mem
bers of the town board of trustees
have been advised by departments of
the government that the spending of
money and the issuance of bonds for
municipal improvements outside of
necessary water and light expendi-
lures, would not be tolerated while the
nation is at war and has urgent need
of every available bit of wealth and
surplus capital. On this account the
town board has taken no steps this
year to make any improvements on
Main street and it is not likely that
it will do so as long as the government
requests otherwise.
The members of the council would
like to see Main street paved or i'm
proved just as well as any other cit
izen of Boomers Ferry. But the mon
ey which paving would require had
much better be put into w. S. s., the
Red Cross, Liberty Loan Bonds or be
applied in some way calculated to help
win the war.

High Water Threatens

The sudden and very warm weather
of the past week has caused the Koot-
enai river to rise with great rapidity
and there is much danger that the
overflow waters will ruin many acres
of bottum land which was planted this
year when it appeared that there
would be no great amount of high
water. The high water gauge on the
county bridge showed the river had
risen to the 20h foot mark yesterday
morning and this noon the gauge was
nearly to the % foot mark. There
is no reason to believe that the water
will quite rising for several days yet.
