NAME LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
Interesting Meeting of Commercial
Club Monday Evening.

Acting upon the suggestion of f. G.
Chambers the members of the Kootenai
Valley Commercial Club at the regular
meeting Monday night, voted that a
legislative committee should be ap-
pointed to be numbered among the
permanent committees of the club.
Mr.. Chambers stated that the legis-
lative committee should be able to sug-
gest to the Boundary county represen-
tatives in the state legislature, correc-
tions of present statutes and new laws
which would be of material benefit to
the farmers and all interests of the
county. r. A. Alexander has been
named the chairman of the legislative
committee and will select four club
members to act with him.
On motion the president was en-
powered to name a representative of
the club to attend the telephone toll
rate hearing before the state utilities
commission, to be had April 81 at
Coeur d'Alene. ]. w Reid was named
as the club representative.
A. L. Fry reported that his commit
tee, named several months ago to as
certain the location and time of con-
struction of the first building in this
white person, had secured data from
Robertson's notes proving the location
to have been on the site of the present
county road on the former Sinclair
ranch on the lower river road. The
actual records concerning this matter
are on file at Ottawa. The committee
was empowered to prepare a resolution
in which the county commissioners
will be asked to erect some sort of
monument to mark the site of this
house, which, the records show, was
one of the first constructed in the In
land Empire.
The matter of securing the activities
OF the Western Land Co. in bringing
new settlers to Boundary county was
discussed and it was decided that
committee should investigate the com
pany and how it had operated in other
localities before entering into any ne
gotiations with its officers.
A. B. Ashby mentioned the fact that
an auto stage line was now operating
between Bonners Ferry and Standpoint
and that patronage of this line might
cut down passenger business on the
railway lines to such an extent that
they would be able to secure an order
from the state utilities commission
permitting the discontinuance of the
local passenger train to Spokane and
the reducing of local freight service.
Before any action is taken an inyesti-
cation of the jurisdiction of the utiIi-
ties commission over stage lines will
be made.

of the Civic League in an effort to
have Bonners Ferry wash its face and
comb its hair in approved fashion.
That cleanup week shall show sub
stantial and lasting results is of the
first Importance. Our town speaks
for its citizens and by it's appearance
informs every visitor whether we are
modern folk with civic care and pride
or are slipshod slackers unwilling to
make an effort to have hygenic and
pleasing surroundings. Let us take
hold of this thing individually and col
lectiyely. Let every man and woman
clean up around his dwelling place
and the street in front of it and then
turn in and take care of the vacant
lots and nomans land within our bor-
ders. We can make Bonners Ferry as
inviting a habitat as man could wish.

1t Isn't the Town. You

IL you want to live in kind of a town
Like the kind of town you like
You needn't slip your clothes in a grip
And start on long, long hike.
You'll only find what you left behind,
For there's nothing that's really new;
It's knock at yourself
When you knock your town;
1t isn't the town--its you!
Real towns are not made by men afraid
Lest somebody gets ahead
When everyone works and nobody shirks
You can raise a town from the dead
And If while you make your personal stake
Your neighbor can make one too
Your town will be
What you want it to be-
1t isn't the town-it's you. Selected
