INTERESTING SESSION
OF BOARD OF TAADE
PASTOR MAKES PLAIN TALK
SHERIFF GIVES Crafty
ING GUARANTEE.

Interest in the. Wallace board Of
trade is unabating, judged by the con-
tinued large attendance at the Mon
day %luncheons. There was no special
business to attract attendance last
Monday, but nevertheless every seat
was occupied in the large Banquet
dining room. Through the courtesy of
the Turner Music company, the
meeting was favored by extracts from
speeches by Senators Hitchcock and
~Poindexter on Columbia records.
The report of Mr.. Corner, chairman
of the traffic committee, regarding the
bug service, in contrast with the
proceedings a week before, was re-
ceived without comment or discussion.
1t was in effect that the O.-W. R. &
n, company had announced that be-
ginning that afternoon a steam train
would leave Wallace at 4 p. m, for Ena
vile. Returning the train will stop at
Kellogg for the night. This move on
the part of the railroad company in
Nth biiRN thN company was SUITE
no further than literally complying
With the order of the utilities COM
mission which required that a train
leave Wallace not less than two and
Spokane train at / o'clock The
commission evidently assumed that
the train would have TO come back,
but falling to mention the return trip,
the company seems to be observing
the letter rather than the spirit of
the order. However, Mr.. Corner
stated that he had reason to believe
that this arrangement was merely
temporary and that before long the
regular bug" service would be re-
stored.
Get Back Of the Churches.
Rev. A. L. Bramhall, rector of the
Episcopal church, is a member Of the
board of trade and is a regular at
tendant at the weekly meetings. He.
addressed the board briefly last Mon
day, commencing the organization for
its public spirit and it's efforts to pro-
mote the material welfare of the city
and district, However, Mr., Bramhall
told the meeting that he felt that they
were overlooking the most essential
matter, the thing hat forms. the ba-
sis Of he real prosperity and welfare
of the city, the churches. He called
attention to the absence of business
men in the houses of worship, and
urged the board to get back of the
churches as the most effective means
of promoting the permanent welfare
Of the city.
Tho New Sheriff.
This being the first appearance OF
Jesse Freeman at the board luncheon

Sullivan called upon him for
a speech, Mr.. Freeman responded by
expressing his determination to faith
fully perform the duties of the office
and confidence that he would have the

no promises beyond the positive guar
lntee that he would manage to keep
out Of jail himself.

Herman ]. Rossi called attention to
the shocking murder Of ex~-service
men by members of tie I. w. W. at
1entralia and suggested that the
board of trade should give expression
% its attitude toward the perpetra-
