OPENED RAILROAD
DOWN SNAKE RIVER
TRAINS RUNNING FROM LEW
ISTON TO RIPARIA TODAY
RELIEVE MOSCOW LINE

LEWISTON.-Tr over the
Lewiston-Riparia line on the Camas
Prairie Railway company, which was
sespended on July 13 whe nthe heavy
storm of that date resulted in wash
outs oeer long stretches of the road,
entailing at the same time damage
to river orchards reaching many
thousands of dollars, will be resumed
today as the result of the construc-
tion of temporary tracks at several
points.
Announcement that the train SER
vice would be resumed today was
made yesterday afternoon by Super
intendent r. A.. Hanrahan. The morn.
ing train will depart from Lewiston
on schedule at 9:20 o'clock and the
evening train at 6:5O o'clock. At
9 o'clock this morning the mixed
train will arrive, having made con-
nection with the Portland train, and
the afternoon train will arrive at
4:05 o'clock. Tomorrow all trains will
run to definite schedule, the depart
ures from Lewiston being made at
9:20 a. m. and $3.50 p. m. and the ar
rivals at a. m. and 4:05 p. m.
The work of reconstruction on the
river line has involved the building
of about a mile of temporary track
around and over the points where the
washouts and slides occurred, the dis
trict being largely confined to the
point between Indian and Bishop. In
dian is IL miles below Lewiston and
Bishop % miles.
The work of restoring the line to
it's original condition will continue
under contract secured by Grant
Smith & Co. and estimate is made the
task cannot be completed in a less
period of time than 60 days.
This means relieving the over
worked .Moscow-Colfax branch. on
which double-header freight trains
have been running to handle the
freight business sent north from
Lewiston to Moscow on the Northern
Pacific and transferred here to the
O.-W. R. & N 1t will also mean the
of the sleeping car service
between Colfax and Portland, as the
sleeper will start from Lewiston in
stead of Colfax, in the future.

ably accounts for the little interest
shown. Republicans had one candi-

each case the incumbent filing for re-

but one candidate for the offices
sought, and no one filed for commits

held at Pocatello and the democratic

The first precinct to report was
Thorn Creek, which gave returns of
seven republican votes cast. No dem
ocratic primary was held and a
prominent republican of that precinct
said: "The democrats have all gone
over to the nonpartizans."
1t is believed that not to exceed 10
per cent of the vote of Latah county
was cast at the primary election
Tuesday, but that is enough to NOM
mate the candidates for both parties.

weeks. 1t looks like three cornered
fight with parts of three tickets in
the field. The nonpartizans are ex-
pected to indorse some of the candi-

nominate part of a ticket so that
the nonpartizans will have a candi-
date for every county and legislative
position to be filled.

for nomination on the republican and

'PAL0USE WHEAT
CROP PROMISING
FALL WHEAT OUT OF DANGER
AND SPRING WHEAT NEARS
THAT POINT NOW
(Palouse Republic)

Last week The Republic mentioned
the fine piece of wheat on the j. A.
Miller farm. Since then some sam
pies of the wheat have been brought
in by Mr.. Miller, who believes it is
one of the best prospects he has had
in a long career of wheat producing
in the Palouse. The heads are large
and we'll filled. This crop can be
taken as an indication of what may be
expected this season from fall-sown
grain. Mr.. Miller is a strong advo-
cate Of fall seeding for the Palouse
country.
Another piece of wheat which
should be equal to the piece on the
Miller land, is 100 acres of fall
wheat on the w. F. Smith farm west
of town. This wheat, which is per-
fectly clean, stands rank, and Mr.
Smith believes it will yield from 40
to 45 bushels to the acre. There are
many good pieces ofawheat in the dis
trict tributary to Palouse, but these
two pieces make an especially good
showing at this time.
1t is evident that there will be bet
ter than an average yield of spring
past few days has damaged it more
than is now apparent. The present
season has been more favorable for
the development of the spring sown
crop, which is fortunate, as the spring
sown crop is unusually large, due to
the unfayorable conditions for seeding
last fall
Hot Wave Hits Country.
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
of this week were the hottest days of
the season so far, with the mercury
around the hundred mark
in the shade. Wednesday afternoon
the heat was the most intense and
some thermometers showed 102 in
the shade. 1t is believed that the
heat which was accompanied by hot
winds on Wednesday, damaged the
spring grain to some extent. We'd
nesday night was one of the warmest
nights ever experienced in the Pa
louise country, the air falling to cool
off, as it usually does, during the
night.
