Columbus Clark

Columbus Clark, candidate for re-
election on the republican ticket
for the office of commissioner from
the third district, will no doubt re-
ceive big vote in this corner of
the county. His only opposition IS
on the non-partizan league ticket,
so his election ought to be practical
ly certainty. Mr.. Clark's record
during the past two years entities
him to receive the hearty support
of the voters this year. Latah
county is one of the most eco
nomically governed counties in the
state. The county commissioners
largely deserve credit for this
efficient administration of county
government. Mr.. Clark's interests
are in this corner of the county and
we believe he will be treated right
election day IN this community.

Not Organize Leland Bank

F. B. Smith stated this week that
organization of the Leland bank has
been postponed indefinitely. On
account OF money conditions at TINS
time 1t was thought best to let the
matter rest until a more favorable
opportunity presented itself.
In the mean time Kenorick has
two splendid banking institutions
that are as solid as the rock of
Gibralter. The people of Potlatch
ridge have easy access to these two
banks and will have the advantage
of the almost unlimited resources
which they represent. KendrIck

Lyceum Wednesday Night

The first lyceum number of the
course this season will appear at
the Grand Theatre, Wednesday
night, November 3. 1t is principal
ly musical number given by
five talented musicians. The pro-
gram will consist of many beautiful
old songs that everyone will like.
This one concert cost the lyceum
committee SITS, so it ought to be
good.
The course this year is made up
of the highest priced talent that has
ever been brought to Kendrlck.
The lyceum committee has under
taken the task of bringing the
course here this winter for the en-
tertainment of the people of this
community. No one makes any
money out of it except the lyceum
company-alI the committee aims
to do is to break even. To do this
will require the purchase of large
number OF season tickets.
Prof. Morrison has a number o1

Woody For Sheriff

Kendrick has always given John,
l.. Woody big vote. During the.
several campaigns which he went
through while candidate for county
commissioner, and at the election,
two years ago when he was out for,
the office Of sheriff, his home town
stood almost solidly behind him.
His record during the past two
years has been such that he has a
right to expect the same substantial
vote next Tuesday.
Mr.. Woody with his splendid
Office deputies. has made record as
sheriff OF which he may we'll feel
proud. He has done his duty, par
tlcularly along the lines Of enforce
ing the prohibition laws, and in do
ing this has made some enemies,
which was unavoidable. However,
those who favor law enforcement
Will the more strongly support him
for the straightforward manner in
which he has conducted the affairs
of his office.
When county Office is filed with
competent man, it would seem to
be poor buslnes judgement to make
change. 1t is case into which
politics should not enter. That Mr.
Woody las made an excellent sheriff
there can be no doubt. We also
feel confident that he will receive
his usual overwhelming vote in this
precinct election day.

School Notes

Last week was the close of the
first SIX weeks of school, worked by
a regular set of questions and
scheduled time to answer them.
Instead of a monthly report the
high school will have its each six
weeks.
1t pupil maintains class record
of 95 or better during that time he
is not asked to take an examination
over the subject matter covered
during that time, provided he has
not been absent over three days dur
ing that period and provided his
citizenship has been kept up to 95.
The high school teachers feel for
the most part there is not enough
work done at home.
They have worked out an average
for the four grades and also the
boys as over against that OF the
girls as follows:

Not Homesick

81 read with amusement your ar
tlcle in October 9Th issue from the
Climate State. That certainly is
admitting great lot from an Idaho
paper. Thank you for that much.
Am enclosing few clippings from
yesterdays Tribune. If you can
find anyone In Idaho who can beat
them, you win and the producer
owes you the biggest bunch of
grapes he has.
Talk about homesick- on your
life, when we can have strawberries
fresh from the vines July 4th,
Thanksgiving day, Christmas and
New Years, as we'll as all other
kinds of berries and vegetables. Ros-
es for any occasion at any time you
want them not hot house stuff,
either. The only things we miss
are sleigh rides and mud holes"
H. Munsterman.
Editors Note). Mr.. Munster
mans many friends in the Potlatch
will be glad to learn that he is SO
perfectly satisfied in California.
Seldom does man attain the ideal.
Mr.. Munsterman is either try
ing to cover up his real feeling of
admiration for the "Garden Spot of
the World-the Potlatch" or else his
residence in California has been
of sufficient length to wean him
from his former home and turn him
into Native Son.
After a residence of four years in
California we came to know that
for roses, oranges and lemons, Call
fornia stands alone. In fact, there
are probably more lemons there
than any other place in the world,
as many a poor eastern Sucker"
has found to his sorrow.
However, the closing sentence OF
Mr.. Munsterman's letter was the
most unkindest cut of all. Speak.
ing about mud holes-Goodnight
We have the world beat.
The OldtieId's got out of Cali
fornia before it had cast its spell
over them. Mr.. OIdtield stated a
short time ago that it was nothing
uncommon to see young lady stoE
on the sidewalk and scratch hel
silken ankle. Necessity knows nj
law! We Potlatchers are at leas
thankful for small tavors. Ther'
are no feas on US.
