OPEN CONFECTIONERY.

T. c. Keith, this week closed a
deal for the vacant room next
door to the postoffice ard will
open up some time next week a
confectionery store and &c c
cream parlor. The store will at
first be in charge of Mrs. Keith
and as soon as Mr.. Keith is re-
leased from his duties at the
Leggett Mercantile Co., he will
take active charge of the same.
Mr.. Keith has been a resident in
Cottonwood for several years
and an introduction we believe is
useless. He will run an up-to-
date establishment and bids for
a share of your patronage. Ar
entire new stock has been order
ed which should arrive the first
of the week and as soon as this
is placed on the shelves the place
will be opened for business.

TEAM RAN AWAY.

Albert Vessels received very
painful injuries Monday morn
ing when he was thrown from a
wagon near the Henry Nuxoll
residence after his team became
mmanagable and ran away.
The horses became frightened,
and ran away when the tongue
slipped from the neck yoke, and
came tearing down King street
with the tongue dragging to the
ground and for awhile it looked
as if the final results might
prove disasterous. The run-a-
way team missed several auto
mobiles on the street, slightly
hitting one which was parked
near the Cottonwood Mercantile.
One of the horses fell in front of
the Ferguson barber shop and
before the animal could get up a
half dozen men were holding it
down. Mr.. Vessels was taken
to the office of DR.. Orr, who ex-
amined the injuries which con-
sisted of a badly bruised ankle
but no breaks were discovered.
The injuries will keep Albert
from the harvest work for sever
al days. The harness and the
wagon were but slightly damag-
ed.

GRASS FIRE
NEAR RIVER
MEN FROM COTTONWOOD
GO TO FIGHT FIRE ON
RIVER RANCH.

For the second time within a
week assistance was asked for In
Cottonwood to fight a grass fire
on the August Schroeder ranch
on the breaks of the Salmon riv-
er, Wednesday evening. The
first fine broke out last Friday
afternoon and some Is men left
Cottonwood in cars to help eXtin-
guish the flames, which was stop
ped after some hard fighting,
having burnt over an area of ap-
proXimately 200 acres of winter
range.
On Wednesday afternoon the
fire again broke out and assist
ance was sent from Cottonwood
and after much hard work was
placed under control. AT one
time it semed almost impossible
to keep the fire from burning
its way TO the top of the canyon
and burning some fine fall grain
which is just about ready to cut
and the property ofAugust Sch
roeder. 1t required the combin-
cd efforts of about 40 volunteer
fire fighters to get the flames
under control.
1t is believed the original fire
started from a cigarette which
was carelessly thrown into the
dry grass.
Mr.. Schroeder has asked us To
extend his thanks to the people
of Cottonwood and those from
the keuterville section, and 9th
ers who so willingly assisted him
in checking the flames. Mr.
Schroeder stated that his loss
so far has not been very great
but had it not been checked he
would have without a doubt lost
approximately 1000 acres of ex.
cellent winter range. Constant
watch is being kept on the firt
region, in an endeavor to checl
any new flames that nigh
break out.

FIERCE WIND STORM.

Cottonwood and vicinity was
visited Monday afternoon by one
of the fiercest wind storms that
has ever been witnessed here ac-
cording to many old times. At
times the dust was so dense that
it was impossible to see across
the streets. The wind did some
damage, blowing down grain
shocks and scattering the wheat
from the heads. In the lower
country the storm was more sew
ere, hail and rain having been
accompanied by the wind.

CHARGED WITH INSANITY.

Alix Sanbark, Russian by
birth, was arrested in Cotton
wood Wednesday morning on the
charge of insanity by o. D.
Hamlin, deputy sheriff, and was
taken to Grangeville the same
day by the deputy sheriff and
A. H. Nau. to be given a hearing.
1t is stated that he had been held
in the Idaho iail on a similar
charge some time ago but was
acquitted. Sanbark has been
around Cottonwood for the past
two weeks and at different times
has acted rather strange. II
required four men to place him
in the city Jail. Among his per-
sonal effects the officers found
an |. w. w. card to which order
he no doubt was affiliated. The
card contained the following in.
formation: Occupation, teamstel
industry, construction; depart.
ment. road grading. Card No
Gen. No. 720220.

VALUES TOO LOW.

The total valuation for the
state OF Idaho as reported by
the county auditors and placed
before the state board of equal
ization in session at Boise Tues
day shows an increase of $4, ,62l,-
6S3 over the total valuation a
year ago. The total assessed
valuation for 1921 as reported
on real property for the "A coun-
ties is 1858, 1903.
Agricultural land values of the
state as shown by the combined
rolls are $76,945,2S3, of which
irrigated lands represent S52,-
2S5. .2S4, and dry farm lands $22,
S71,383. Timber land is valued
at S19,811,360.
1t is admitted that valuations
the state over must be raised
this year. Governor Davis said :
with taxing bodies hard press
ed to secure adequate income for
running expenses within the
legal limits for levies, there is
but one thing to do-equalize
the valuations upward. There
is some gain shown in the alb
stracts' total, but some counties
which we have raised year after
year are coming in again with
the same old low figures. They
must come up. Other counties
are very high because they must
lie high to provide sufficient
local revenue. For their own
good rather than to meet the
states needs the low one must
be raised"
1t is evident that the railroads
and other utilities corporations
will make a strong fight for
their conception of equal assess
ments. They are prepared to
make verbal arguments support.
ed by voluminous tables of fig
ures that in many counties OF
the state they have been asked
to bear much more than theii
share of the tax burden.

ESCAPE UNHURT.

Culdesac, Aug. 10.-(Special
to the Tribune. Escaping un-
scathed after the car in which
they were riding dashed uncon-
trolled down a grade for $50 feet
and ended by turning completely
over with all its occupants. Mrs.
Bert Sherman and two children
and w. L. Ruddle and Mrs.
Emery George are tonight con-
sidering their escape miraculous.
The party was riding in the
car owned by Mr.. Ruddle. about
a mile north of here. Mrs. Sher-
man was driving. In ascending
a steep grade it became neces-
sary to shift gears. Mrs. Sher-
man, not knowing that the cal
she was driving had a peculiar
gear shift, threw the car into
reverse instead of low speed, as
she intended.
The car dashed for so yards
