FIRST VETERAN
CURED in MOSCOW
ROBERT LONG DUNCAN LAID TO
REST IN MOSCOW CEMETERY
46 YEARS AGO.

In connection with the recent death
of Charles @. Martin, member OF one
of the pioneer families Of Latah and
Whitman counties, the current issue
of the Colfax Gazette contains an in
teresting bit of early day history,
given in letter to The Gazette from
William M. Duncan of Olympia, a
nephew Of the late Mr., Martin, Mr.,
Duncan's father, the late Robert Long
Duncan, was the first Civil War vet
eran to be buried in the Moscow
cemetery, his death occurring in Sep
| tember, 1877, almost 46 years ago.
Mr. Duncan's letter follows in
part:
"Uncle Charles, his wife and baby
of about two years, my father and
mother, two sisters and myself made
the trip from Sacramento, California,
in covered wagons in 1876. Uncle
Charles settled near Pullman, where
I" Uncle Dan Mckenzie " was encamped
in tent, and we went on to Moscow,
Idaho We stayed there during the
winter and the next spring my ia
ther, Robert Long Duncan, took up
land just over the line in Whitman
county.
"In coming from California we
were several months on the road
owing to the fact that the Indians
of southern Oregon were on the war
path and we had to detour around
into Nevada and through eastern
Oregon
During the first winter we stayed
with my mothers youngest brother,
Frank M Martin, who had a home
stead a mile south of Moscow. He
had come year before and was a
scout under General o. o. Howard
during the Nez Perce Indian war
O., and lived in Palouse until about
1908 He then moved to Asotin coun-
ty and died there in the early spring
of 1913.
During the second uprising of
the Nez Perces most of the settlers |
around our part of the country went |
to the old slab fort at Moscow. We
had small log cabin about two and
a half miles west Of Moscow on the
main travelled road between Walla |
Walla and Moscow. Uncle Charles |
started for the fort but when he got |
to our place he decided, to leave his
family there. He built "lean-to ="
on the side of our cabin for his wife
and little girl and he went back to
ook after his ranch near Pullman.
During their stay at our place their
second child, Merton, who is now
head of one of the large
stores in San Francisco, was born.
"My father and Uncle Charles were
both Civil war veterans and as Uncle
frank had been in the Indian war
hey thought they could protect us.
Iowever we were not molested but
we're frightened half out of our wits
~ the painted Indians who travelled
he trails that led right by our cabin
"That fall my uncle, Geore I. Mar
in arrived with his family from Cali
ornia and settled near us in Whit
nan county. He is still living on !
he old homestead.
my father died the year following
nd my mother in 1889. She was
till living on the land that my ia
her had homesteaded."

Bob Swadener and the Palouse Roads

Bob SWadener and the PaIOuSe Roads
R. B. Swadener, former Moscow
boy, but now highway engineer
working under the Washington state
highway commission, in Spokane
county, arrived in Moscow by auto
mobile Thursday night and will spend
few days here on business. Mr..
Swadener was told at Palouse that the
roads were such that he could drive
to Moscow He did, but did not make
any record time. In fact it took
him from 1880 until after ten o'clock
to negotiate the II miles. No trouble
was experienced after he reached
Moscow Mountain, but between Pa
louise and Viola the road was prac-
tically impossible.

INSURANCE BUREAU
REACHES HIGH MARK

Receipts of the state bureau of in
surance under Howard ]. Brace, for
the two-year period ending January
1, 1923, were s436,0O729, or the lar
gest amount of money ever taken in
by this bureau in the same time,
says The Statesman.
During the same time the bureau
expended $14,715,09, leaving a net
revenue to the state of $421 ,292 30
Unlike some other state bureaus, all
funds accruing to the state from this
source, go into the general fund of
the state and are used to pay the
cost of the general state government.
Just so much as this bureau pours
into the general fund just so much
is the state tax levy reduced for the
two-year period.
Source of Revenue
Revenues of this bureau come from
fees, licenses and premium taxes
levied against insurance companies of
all kinds doing business in the state.
The revenues for the twoyear period
Just closed are divided as follows:
1921 ............ $3.50, ,991.11
1922 ...... S205, ,016.1S
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1923-03-23
Total s436,0o7. 30

The decrease in the 1922 revenues
is due to a falling off of insurance
business in the state during that year.
Statistics at the bureau office show
that in 1922 life insurance business
fell off IA per cent in Idaho under the
1921 figure.
Bills passed by the legislature which
has Just adjourned and signed by
the governor will materially increase
the business Of this bureau and also
the revenues Already this year there
has been turned into the general fund
from the insurance bureau more than
S115. 900 and Mr. Brace said Tuesday
that many tousands OF dollars are
still In his office waiting to be ground
through the mill and turned into the
general fund.

Provision in Charters.

The right of the Public Utilities
Commission to Authorize . charge for
transfers ISSUED between the two
street railway companies was chai-
lenged by wiQliam NICK. Clayton, rep
resentinE the Federation of Citizens
Associations. at a public hearing at
the District building today.
The hearing was called to consider
the application Of the Washington
Railway and E9ectrAc Company for
an extension of Ms Potomac Park bus
route from it's present terminus at
18th street and Virginia avenue to
the Lincoln Memorial.
Included In the application was q
suggestion that 2-cent transfers be
sold between the Warrington Rail-
way and Electric busses and cars of
the Capital Traction Company at 18th
and 18th streets.
Mr.. Clayton opposed the authorize
tion OF this transfer charge, declar-
ing that the charters Of the companies
provide for one fare only within the
District.
The Washington Rapki Transit
Company also has applied for an ex-
tension OF it's Potomac Park bus line
to the Lincoln Memorial, hut over
slightly different route. Hearing on
the transit company's application will
be held next Monday.
