WILL REFUND MONEY
FOR HIGHWAY WORK
FUNDS CONTRIBUTED FOR PRE-
LIMINARY SURVEY OF STATE
HIGHWAY GO BACK.

In the fall of 1918, committee OF
business men and farmers living
south of Moscow solicited for fund
to pay the expenses of preliminary
survey for State Highway between
Moscow and Genesee. A total of
$1745 was actually collected and the
survey was made under the direction
of Mr.. C. M. Van Arsdol, an engi-
neer who laid out the Lewiston High
way which is also part of the north
and south highway.
The preliminary projects were filed
with the Federal Government and the
funds appropriated to build this road
under Federal and State supervision.
The State Legislature in 1919 appro-
priated the States share of the funds.
Highway District No. was after
wards formed which took over the
work from then on in connection with
this part Of the road.
This highway is practically all
graded and extends from the top of
the Lewiston hill to the end of the
paving on South Main street. 1t will
be surfaced and completed this spring
as soon as weather conditions permit
the contractors to go on with the
work. Prompt action in bringing the
state highway through Moscow is due
to the prompt and liberal response of
the business men and farmers who
to this fund. 1t was the
understanding that if this highway
was built, the preliminary expenses
would be a part of the cost of con-
struction, where they naturally be
long and would be refunded to the
contributors. While the road is not
complete, it is only matter
Of short time when it will be and

STATES LARGEST
STILL IS CAPTURED
CHIEF CONSTABLE BRESHEARS
MAKES IMPORTANT CAPTURE
IN BONNER COUNTY.

Standpoint, Idaho-State constabu
larry officers under the direction Of
F. M. Breshears, head of the state
constabulafy, brought to the county
jail at 2:15 this afternoon the largest
moonshine outfit yet taken in this
county and what Officer Breshears
says is the most complete still ever
captured in the state. The plant was
found near the ranch of Nelson Rat
lift, two miles northwest of Glengary,
at daybreak today Uriah Barnes
and Russell Warren, son-in-law OF
Ratliff, were taken into custody by
the officers and landed in jail this
afternoon.
Breshears and his deputies went by
launch to the head Of Bottle bay at
midnight last night and started out
at dawn Oh a reconnoiter of the
peninsula. From the top of noun
tain they saw smoke curling from a
draw. AS they approached over wind
falls and through the wet grass, the
smoke disappeared but following the
general direction, the officers sud-
denly came out upon the still in full
operation. The men about the still
broke in flight and as one Of them
ran away Deputy Foster fired but did
not stop him. Six shots were fired by
the fleeing figure but whether as
signal or at the dputies they were un-
able to determine.
Warren, young fellow was ar
rested at the scene, and Barnes, an
old man came up to the outfit with
the operators breakfast and was
taken into custody,
The still was located at the bot
tom of canyon, with the parapher-
malta covered with tar paper extend
ed from posts at the Sides There
were between 600 and 700 gallons Of
mash, 300 pounds of sugar, between
300 and 400 pounds Of corn meal, 800
feet of hose to pipe water down from
q stream nearby. Eighteen or 20 bar
rels were in the outfit.
The still itself and the coil and I
rectifier were mammoth in size. The
officers loaded the still, coil and rec
tifier into their launch and took into
custody IL gallons Of liquor.
"It was the biggest outfit the state
constabulary has ever taken In the
state," said Mr.. Breshears this after
noon "The liquor is clear corn juice,
and everything was neat and clean
about the place. The still was located
about mile and half from Ratliff's
house."
It is claimed the location Of the
still was on unfenced ground, 20 feet
from the line of the Ratliff property,
which is the former Paul Martin
ranch and which Ratliff bought Of
Martin this spring. Ratliff's original
ranch is near by.
The men arrested were brought in {
to probate court this afternoon and s
their hearing fixed for April 20 at {
10 clock. Bail was fixed at $3.50 each I
and their bonds were signed by John '
Morehead and Nelson Ratliff. 8
