NO DROUGHT FOR
FORTUNATE FEW

A Salmon business man on his
way home frcn Montana last week
describes a scene of activity near
the border line between that state
and Idaho that is perhaps without
parallel in all the United State in
the impending doom OF John Barley
corn. Just over the line in the state
to the east, we are told great guam
titles of liquor have been stored at
q well known ranch, large portions
of the contraband being intendes
come where il may fetch the best
price over in forbidden territory of
the state of Idaho. 1t is not unlaw-
full to keep liquor in ones posses
sion in Montana, while il is a felony
to have and to hold it in Idaho. A
system of safe transfer is said to be
contemplated for the delivery of the
portion that may be requisitioned for
this dry region which cannot be un-
dertaken, of course, without official
connivance on this side of the line.
1t is an open secret that ample pro-
lection of the traffic is expected
According to the information that
than $4,000 has been employed in
subscribed by Lemhi county men
who are thus embarked upon syste-
matte lawbreaking for themselves
and some others who are relied upon
safely to transport the stock in
trade, which in itself is contrary to
Idaho law.
1t remains to be seen whether or
not any immunity has been authoriz-
ed in this connection. Good citizens
generally will expect to see nothing
of the kind permitted by the courts
and other officers of the law.

Warm Tribute of Old Friend

Speaking of the life and character
OF DR.. Whitwell. his long time friend,
\. |. Andrews, who was asked to do
so, furnished the following tribute:
DR.. w. G. Whitwell was one of
Gods noblemen. Any man who has
lived the pureS honorable life that
this good, big-hearted doctor lived
need have no fear of the life to come.
man without a real enemy no one
who knew him could help but love
him as doctor. friend, neighbor, man
In his profession he was ever kind
and sympathetic, putting his very
soul into the treatment OF the case
in hand. In this he devoted his last
few months to those who were suf.
fering, when weary and worn out he
took to his bed and could not regain
his activities and cares again. His
former partner. DR.. Wright, did all
that friend and medical skill could
do TO bring him back to health, but
that WAS not TO be.
Dr. Whitwell and I were very in
innate friends for over a quarter of
century. have Travelled with him
Even strangers casually met have
been happier by being in his com
pany. He accompanied me TO Cali
fornia two years ago and spent the
winter. Ever since then all my
friends have asked for the big
hearted doctor" and wanted me to
get him to come again and TO live
with them. Thus he made friends
wherever he wentDuring his stay in
the southland he made many friends
who will sincerely mourn his loss
and sympathiZe with his bereayed
family and home people.
II is hard to find words TO express
the general sorrow at his passing,
but there is blessed consolation in

OLD CAPITOL is NO MORE

Miners residing near the old camp
of Florence in Idaho county report
the probable death of Jerry Seaburg,
the sole resident of Florence this
winter. A few days ago. according 10
a telephoned report from Adams
Camp. miners discovered that Sea.
burg's cabin had recently been burn
ed TO the ground. The old miner has
not been seen or heard from since
and fears are entertained that be
perished in the flames or has become
lost in the mountains
The old mining camp of Florence,
at one time the capital city of Ida
no. is practically deserted this win
ter. and Seaburg's nearest neighbor
lived miles distant. Seaburg has
been i'll for some months and il y
thought likely that he has perisheh.

MONTANA YOUTH STEALS
EIGHTEEN FAT STEERS

GREAT FALLS, Mont.-One of the
boldest cases of cattle rustling in the
history of the state is charged to a
boy of 49,, now held by the sheriff's
office here. The lad asserts the mo-
tive was to obtain money to settle a
hospital bill for young girl friend,
who was seriously injured in an auto
mobile accident through, the youth
believes, his fault.
The boy, it is charged, rode into
the country and drove IS steers off a
ranch 10 miles from the city, brought
them to a slaughter house here and
sold them. He claimed to be acting
as agent for well-known rancher, it
is said, to whom the check was made
out The boys heart failed him and
the check never was cashed. The
sheriff has recovered a portion of the
stock but the rest had been slaughter
ed. The butcher is being held for the
value of the stock.

With them were others of our early
settlers including the families of
Hoke, Zeither and Vandewalker Mr..

stead south of Moscow, which is now
owned by their son, Charles Snow.
There were no fences then around
the fields only corralls near the log
houses. Moscow was a town of three
stores, with A. Lieuallen as store
keeper and postmaster, ]. Benjamin
as blacksmith and Mr.. Hamilton as
hotel keeper.
Mr. Snow died in 1902. Mrs. Snow
has eight children and 25 grandchil-

wish her many happy returns on this
