Must Get Rid of Dogs

If Orofino wants to keep her name
And reputation down,
She's simply got to keep the ours
That over run the town.
If all the dogs were made to pay
Or get the marshall's ak,
The money thus collected
Would have paid the sewer tax.
When you see dogs all around you.
The spitz dog and the bull.
1t makes a person wonGer
How the owners get their pun.
Why the marshall and the mayor.
And the men who run the town
Should collect from all the good dogs
And pass up the worthless houn
If the ours that roam the village
So that no one near can sleep
Should happen to get hungry
! And attack the farmers sheep.
Would the marshall. who has always
let
These stray dogs run at will
Be so very badly treated
II compelled to pay the bill?
Mrs. Mary e. BARLEY.

Court Decision Settles Highway
Dispute to Satisfaction of Voters
Court Shows Sufficient Funds to Pay Obliga-
tions of Orofino Highway District. Pc
tition Contained 500 Names.

The Orofino Highway District
will be dissolved and revert back
to the county according to the de-
cision handed down by e. C. Steele
Judge of the District Court. The
decision was received by attorney
F. E. Smith, Monday for filing, and
unless appealed to the supreme
court, ends long drawn out case
to the satisfaction of the tax payers
and citizens of the district The
findings of the court as taken from
the official decision follow in part:
In the matter of the appeal of
]. w. Blake and Julius Dobson from
the order of the board of county
commissioners, dissolving Orofino
Highway District.
In this case, 500 residents and
tax payers of Orofino Highway Dis
trict, out of a total of 900, petition
the board of county commissioners OF
Clearwater County for a dissolu-
tion of the Orofino Highway Dis
trict The Highway commissioners
resisted the petition and after the
board had Investigated the matter
entered an order dissolving the
Orofino Highway District. From
this order an appeal has been taken
to this court.
No question whatever is raised
as to the sufficiency OF the petition
1t is in proper form and signed by
the requisite number of tax payer!
of the Orofino Highway District
The only contention made by th'
commissioners of the highway dis
triet to prevent this dissolution i
that there are not sufficient fund
in the treasury of the district t.
pay off the Indebtedness of the dis
trict
The principal controversy is as t
whether taxes levied and not col
lected are to be considered as fund
in the treasury and it is admitte
that if SO considered there are sui
ficient funds in the treasury.
The authorities hold that a
kinds of warrants. bonds and obi
cations held by a municipality c
highway district are funds in tn
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1920-01-30

treasury and they are treated as
by the Orofino Highway District
are owing by the Clearwater Dis
trict to the Orofino Highway Dis
trict, and whatever these obliga-
t1ons amount to are clearly funds
in the treasury. If this is the rule.
then there is no question in this
case but what there are funds in
the treasury sufficient to pay all
the obligations of the Orofino High
way District.
Citizens and tax payers of a
highway district have the right to
have the district dissolved whenever
they can do so without injury to
any creditor of the district The
citizens and tax payers of the Oro-
fino Highway district are the stock
holders of such district, and when
ever a majority of the cTtizens of
that district desire the district dis
solved, and where sucn dissolution
can be had without injury to any
creditors, then the district should
be dissolved. The court believes
this is the purpose and intent of
the statute providing for such dis
solution
Five hundred out of approx
/ mately 500 tax payers have peti-
toned for the dissolution of this
district. 1t is a matter of common
knowledge that the Orofino High.
way district is the connecting lini
in the Lewis and Clark highway
and it is matter of common
knowledge that the roads of thi
district cannot be improved withou
a bond issue of probably a couple
of hundred thousand dollars
The district is put in this ano
malous position: 500 out of so,
voters say they want it dissolved
If it is not dissolved and bon,
issue is called, it would be a grea
stretch of the Imagination to be
lieve that two-thirds of the voter
of this district would reverse thei
: position and vote for bonds to carr
r on the very district that they hav
: petitioned the courts to dissolve.

WOULD HAVE oRoF1No ON MAP

Indicative of the progress made
in aeronautics since the war the
Orofino Commercial Club is in re-
ceipt of communication from the
Symons- Russell Aviation Company
of Spokane, Wash, which reads in
part as follows.
This company is preparing the
first commercial aviation map of
the Northwest. We should appre-
ciate your sending us information
as to any land used or available
for airplane landing purposes in or
near your community, it's size, char
marks surrounding it, whether pub
lie or private field and how marked.
We will operate extensively
through the Northwest this season
in connection with our exhibition
work, cross-country taxi-service and
sales campaign for Curt1ss planes
There will also be number of in
dividually owned planes and aerial
| tourists flying through the country
all of whom rely on us for informa-
tion as to landing facilities, and il
is our desire to serve them as vel
as you"
Aerial navigation is no longer {
fad. but is practical factor il
/ transportation to be reckoned with
not in the future, but right now
We will soon take trips to Spokane
and other pionts by the air route
quite as commonly as by automo
bile and we anticipate that 1t VIII
be much pleasapter and safer.

Local Club Plans
Lively Future
NEW MANAGEMENT ELECTED
AND ORGANIZATION PUT ON
SOUND WORKING BASIS

That new board or managers
and officers. consisting OF C. d.
McEachron. president; Samson Sny-
der. vice president; B. r. Schmid.
secretary S. r. Swantek
and F. E. Smith. elected Januray
%. at the annual meeting of the
Orofino club. have decided to make
things hum in Orofino, will be OF
interest to the general public.
The primary number on the pro-
gram of the new management was
to secure a constitution and by
laws and put the club upon =
sound working basis. Article l OF
the constitution reads: This club
is organized for literary, mutual
improvement and social purposes.
and shall be called the 'Orofino
Club. Article vi. regarding
membership, reads: |. THE men,
bers of this club shall consist of
the following: GAY Resident MEM
bers. (b) Nonresident members.
.. Resident members are defined
! to be those who reside or have
their principal place of business
within two miles of the village of
Orofino." Section of Article VII
reads: "The dues of resident men,
bers shall not exceed the sum OF
three dollars per quarter. and non
resident members, five dollars per
year" Provision is. also made in
another part of the constitution
for the organization Of a ladies
auxiliary.
In promoting the literary and
social phase of the club, arrange
ments have been made by the board,
for an installation OF library
shelves, which will be supplied
with good reading matter, and a
bulletin board containing items
pertaining to the interest and well
fare of the club members. The
partition between the two rear
rooms now occupied by the club,
has been removed, making more
commodious quarters. B. r. Schmid
and R. A. Hamilton were appointed
as captains of opposing teams to
secure new members and H. F..
Ripley, with the two former, was
put on committee to arrange for
an entertainment. The dates on
which the drive and the entertain
ment will take place have not been
announced as yet.
D The club at present has a mem
: bership of about 60 but has been
e rather dormant in the way or social
: activities on account of the lack o1
e proper organization. However, 4
4 promises to keep things humminG
: in the future. That the club will
$ be source of amusement to mem
: bers and mark step in the pro
gress of the community is beyond ;
doubt. 1t is better equipped thai
most clubs in the towns this siz
" and has already drawn much fav
!. orable comment on the part of out
l. side visitors. Watch this paper TO
= its future activities.
