FARM BUREAU FOR
IDAHO COUNTY
Big Mass Meeting Held in
Grangeville Monday.

Representative farmers and bus
mess men of the county, to the
number of about fifty, met at
Grangeville last Monday evening,
to discuss the advisability of or
ganizing a Farm Bureau in the
county. All present favored the
plan and an organization COM
mittee was appointed, consisting
of the following: A. o. Martin,
Edward Nelson, Floyd Church,
E. S. Sweet, Jos. Weiss and N. B.
Pettibone.
This committee met Tuesday
evening and made plans for a
countrywide campaign of educa-
ton and for membership.
1t plans to hold a public meet
ing in each of the following towns:
Grangeville March IL, Harpster
March IL, Sites March 13, Koos-
kia March IA, Winona March Is,
Whitebird March 18, Cottonwood
March 20, Ferdinand March 21
and Greencreek March %.
On the 23rd of March it is plan
ned to have a county meeting of

Every one should be present at
these meetings and give every as
sistance they can to the move

Almost a Fire.

A big fire was narrowly averted
Tuesday night. About IL o'clock
the Bell telephone office was dis
covered to be on fire, and it re-
quired some very fast work by the
fire department to extinguish it
before much damage was done.
Olin Hamlin, the night opera
tor, sleeps in a rear room of the
building, and before retiring he
put too much coal in the stove
which became red-hot and set fire
to the wall only a few inches from
the stove. R. H. Kendall, of the
Light & Power Co. residing next
door, first discovered the fire,
which had already burned through
the wall and ceiling and which
would soon have been beyond
control.
Where there is any possible
danger of this kind, a good plan
is to tack tin or zinc sheeting on
the wall-and it is also a safer
plan to not place the stove SO
close to the wall.

SUIT FOR DAMAGES
AGAINST COTTONWOOD
J. w. HOckersmith Sues the
Town for $4,000.

Chronicle readers will remem-
Der that year ago last September
Jess Hockersmith, age "a and son
of Wes Hockersmith of Salmon
river, while riding after a steer on
the hillside just east of town his
horse fell and crushed him, result
ing in his death two days later.
1t was an accident that could
easily happen to anyone riding
rapidly over a steep rocky hill
side, and no blame was attached
to anybody at the time of this ac-
cident or was even thought of for
many months after.
1t was therefore somewhat of a
surprise to our people when a few
weeks ago Mr.. Hockersmith began
suit in the district court against
the town, through his attorney, C.
w. Greenough of Spokane, for
$4,000 damages for the death Of
his son.
The case was set for trial at this
session of court at Grangeville,
but no doubt will be continued
until the next term, owing to sew
eral of the most important wit
nesses being quarantined fol-
smallpox.
Judge Ailshie of Occur d'AIene
former Judge of this district, will
represent the town in this case.

said to Major N. A. Bailey, of the
Uuited States Army:
About fifteen years from now
my country will start her great
war. She will be in Paris in about
two months after the commence
ment of hostilities. Her move on
Paris will be but a step to her real
object-the crushing of England.
Some months after we finish our
work in Europe we will take New
York and probably Washington and
hold them for some time. We will
put your country in its place with
reference to Germany. -. The
Monroe doctrine will be taken charge
of by us. And we will take
