These Japanese folk did more enter

particularly careful to stress the fac

X. w. Smith Seriously Injured

S. W. Smith passed through the city
yesterday on his way to his home at
Porthill after having spent couple
OF days in Spokane visiting his son,
X. w. Smith, who is recovering from
serious accident which befell him at
st. Maries, Idaho, over a month ago.
1t seems that X. w. Smith, who had
contract for road work in the st.
Maries district, was telling tree in
the right-of-way and was struck on
the side of the head when it crashed
to the ground. He was rendered un-
conscious and remained unconscious
for several weeks. When it was DOS
sible to move him from the st. Maries
hospital he was taken to specialists
in Spokane who claimed that he could
not recover although he might live
from Is months to three years and
that he was suffering from a ruptured
blood vessel close to his brain.
S. w. Smith states that his sons
condition is much better than he had
expected and that he cannot help but
think that Kellus will recover Mrs.
X. w. Smith is with her husband in
Spokane.
While in Spokane S. W. Smith at
tended a meeting of the directors and
stockholders Of the Western Belle
Mining Company. He was accom-
panied on the trip to Spokane by
Florry Smith. who is also interested
in the Western Belle property.

WILL HAVE A
BASEBALL CLUB
LOCAL ORGANIZATION OF PAN
HANDLE LEAGUE FORMED AT
MEETING HELD SUNDAY
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES NAMED
Do Not Plan To Solicit Business Men
for Subscriptions.

1t has been definitely decided that
Bonners Ferry will become a member
of the proposed Panhandle baseball
league which will include teams from
eight towns of northern Idaho A
meeting is to be held soon at Sand
point for the purpose OF perfecting
the organization of the Panhandle
league and w. c. Reid will attend as
a representative of the Bonners Ferry
baseball association.
Baseball fans of this district met
Sunday afternoon at the county court
house and elected an executive COM
mittee composed of the following: A,
j. Kent, chairman; Lee Williams, sec
retary and treasurer; ]. B. Brody,
w. c. Reid and L. N. Brown.
1t was decided that $3.50 would be
sufficient to finance the local team for
the season and an effort is to be made
to have the parties claiming the re-
ward money put up for distribution
among those who were instrumental in
capturing the two bandits who robbed
the First State Bank last summer,
turn this money over to the ball club.
This reward money totals some $500
The club will give dances to raise the
remainder of the money needed. It is
one of the rules of the league that
visiting teams will pay their own ex-
penses on each trip and will forfeit
posted money for failure to carry out
a schedule which will be prepared
soon.
The local club will play games ON
the Boundary County Fair Association

POTATO MEN
TO ORGANIZE
FUTURE OF CERTIFIED SEED
POTATO GROWING IN BOUND
AIRY COUNTY is ASSURED
PERFECT ORGANIZATION MAR. Is
Constitution, Bylaws and Contract
Forms To Be Adopted.

The second of series of meetings
for the purpose of forming a potato
growers association in Boundary
county was attended by about 80 farm
ers last Saturday at the courthouse.
At the first meeting two weeks pre-
vious a committee Of three consist
ing of George Kindschuh, j. II. Cave
and o. II. Campbell was appointed to
study the bylaws and contract of the
Boundary County Seed Potato Grow
ers' Association, secure other infor-
nation available, and draw up bylaws
and contract to submit to the meet
ing of last Saturday.
Owing to the fact that this commit
tee received the copy of the Bonner
county growers bylaws too late for
careful study of its contents before
the Saturday meeting, they were un-
able to submit a report. So the Bon
ner county growers bylaws were
read and discussed section by section
in the meeting.
OF those present, 10 growers ex-
pressd desire to sign up 251h acres
of potatoes the coming season. 1t was
the opinion of those assembled that
at least 80 acres should be signed up
this year to make the association a
success. So as soon as bylaws and
contract have been adopted and the
permenent organization completed, a
campaign will be made to get that
acreage signed up.
The meeting was adjourned to meet
again two weeks later. All growers
who contemplate getting into this in
dustry will be welcomed to be at this
meeting of the 25th.
The meeting Saturday was presided
over by George Kindschuh and r. A
Alexander, county agent, acted as sec
retary.

Ed Peterson Home Burns

Mr.. and Mrs Ed Peterson lost ali
their furnishings and household goods
Sunday night when the home in which
they were living in the Moravia dis
trict was destroyed by fire. The fire
started through the explosion of a
gasoline lamp and spread so quickly
that 1t was not possible to save any
thing Mr.. Peterson was burned about
the hands but not seriously. There
was no insurance.

is impossible to market either fat cat
tie or sheep later in the season"
1t is expected that the governments
investigation will produce some SEN
sations akin to those which shook the
west about 20 years ago when special
agents of the general land office
turned up in Oregon and other states.
1t is limited that an effort will be
made to shake several livestock men
in Idaho loose from their present ex-
tremely large holdings in the inter-
est of the small settler.
The opposition to house bill II ad-
mittedly was won by representing to
the people of the state that the forest
exchange plan was in the interest of
Fred Gooding, sheep man of Shoshone,
Idaho, and brother of the senator, who
held an option on 100000 acres of
Northern Pacific land grants in the
Clearwater, st. Joe and Selway ma
tional forests in Benewah, Clearwater
and Idaho counties Gooding, how
ever, sought to stop this opposition by
asserting his readiness to have the
land which he would receive by this
land grant exchange parceled out by
a committee to be appointed from
among the Idaho Woolgrowers asso-
citation, the cattlemen and small farm
ers.
He said he only desired a small por-
tion OF the land for himself and was
willing to have the balance distributed
in areas as small as 100 acres at the
rate which he was paying, $3.50 an
acre. This satisfied Senator Borah
and other members of the Idaho dele
CATION who met with Fred Gooding
and Calvin Cobb at conference here
TO decide whether the bill should be
permitted to become a law after 1t
had progressed through both houses.
Mr.. Cobb, who is publisher of the
Boise statesman, came here to oppose
the bill, but, upon listening to Fred
Gooding's offer was declared to have
said that the bill should by all means
pass in the interests of the livestock
industry of the state generally.
1t has been asserted here that the
opportunity will not again be offered
to make the exchange. as it is ander-
stood the Northern Pacific railroad
is no longer entering into contracts
to sell its lands as low as $3.50 an
acre. Scrip in many cases, it was
said, has risen in value to SIS to s17I
an acre.
All OF the land which would have
been exchanged for the national forest
lands in north Idaho is situated in the
southern part of the state.

MAY INVESTIGATE LARGE LAND
HOLDINGS OF IDAHO STOCKMEN

WASHINGTON, Mar. 11.-As a con-
sequence of the protest which came
from Idaho few days ago, resulting
in the Idaho delegation requesting the
president to veto house bill n for a
land exchange in three national forests
in the northern part of the state, an
investigation will be made by the gov
ernment of the alleged inordinate land
holdings of certain large interests
within the state.
1t has been charged here in Wash
ington that the opposition to house bill
II was melted by some of the big live
stock and financial interests in the
state who are seeking to block the
efforts of rival stockmen to gain con-
troll of large areas of grazing lands.
Senator Gooding, who made these al
legations it was complained, was never
able to get before his constituents his
statement of what he declared was be-
hind the fight on the bill.
Senator Gooding's charges were lev
eled at Crawford Moore and Scott An
derson, Boise bankers and sheep men,
who started the fight on the bill.
Among other charges made by Senator
Gooding was one that Moore and An
derson had admitted having a monop-
oily of 100 square miles of grazing
land in southern Idaho which was OBJ
tanned by scripping water holes. This
is the principal charge to be inquired
into by the government. Senator
Gooding has declared that Moore and
Anderson admitted owning this large
area.
Another charge made by Gooding
which is perhaps of no concern to the
government, was that Crawford Moore
had financed Basque or alien sheep
men to the extent of 100000.
81 gave the bill careful considera-
tion," said Senator Gooding, land re-
garded it for the best interests of Ida
ho. 1t was carefully studied by the
entire Idaho delegation and approved
by all 1t comes in poor taste for
Crawford Moore and Scott Anderson
to fight this measure when by their
own admissions they have a monopoly
on 100 square miles of range which
was procured by scripping water
holes. All that is wrong with Moore
is that he is trying to protect a lot
of Basque sheep men who have used
it. What we need is more such bills
in order that the resident livestock
interests may be protected against the
tramp sheepherders who throw their
sheep on the range in the. early spring,
thus destroying the grass so that it

Retain County Agent

leader, with headquarters at Boise,
was in Bonners Ferry Tuesday and re-
newed the contract with Boundary
county whereby the state and county
cooperate in securing the services of
county agent.
County Agent Alexander will remain
in Boundary county another year.
During the time he has been here
his work has been entirely satisfac-
tory and he has gained the confidence
and good will of many who have here
tofore viewed with disapproval the
spending of any county funds for
county agent work For the coming
year Mr.. Alexander hopes to build up
the certified seed potato growing in
dustry, encourage the dairy industry
