KAMIAH HILL HIGHWAY NEAR
ING FINISH.

| The steam shovel finished its work
Saturday and Mr.. Wiley went to
Spokane Sunday to make arrange
ments for removing it to another job.
1t has played large part in the build
ing of the highway and it is due to
its work that the roadbed is wider al
most the entire length than the speci
fications called for Mr.. Wiley has
done good job on this road We
only wish that there were funds avail
able to keep him and his big shovel
working in this valley for several
months longer. He could do a world
of good for the roads out of the val
ley, if given the opportunity to widen
out Seven Mile, the river road, the
Glenwood grade and the road to Carl
bel.
The dirt work is nearing compile
ton on this end of the road and it
is surfaced as far as the first crossing
on the old grade near the water
trough. There is the work at the top
of the hill yet to be done, but that will |
not take long. Prospects are that an
other month win see the highway
The rains of the past week have
been a great benefit to the surfacing
by settling the crushed rock already
laid and soaking the dust before the
gravel is put on it. In fact, the rain
helped the road in almost every way.

YOUR PARENT-TEAcHERs' Asso
cLATIoN.

Last night the Nezperce Parent
] Teachers' Association held its initia
meeting. This organization did good
work during the past school year. II
was sort of beginning. The coming
months should see universal interest
in this community organization. Sure
ly every parent who has child in our
schools win take that much interest
in his or her child.
In the recent past the interest of
parents in the schools was not a very
close or vital one; it was largely an
academic interest. But to-day coop.
Grafton between parents and teachers
is an important factor in educational
endeavor. 1t is one of the forward
movements in education and peculiar
ly American in its origin and concep-
ton. The Importance of this progress
sive movement is manifest to all who
are really interested in the public
schools and their problems.
Parents and teachers are now or
ganized in every state in the Union,
in Alaska, Hawaii, and the Philip
pines, likewise in Cuba, Mexico, Can,
ada, Bahama Islands, China, India and
South America. The two most inn
portant factors in the guidance of
children are working together in each
country named to insure the right
kind Of men and women for future
In 46 states in the United States
there are branches of the National
Congress of Mothers and Parent
Teacher Associations. At the twenty
seventh annual convention of this or
yanization held in Louisville, KY, it
was reported that the total member.
hip exceeded 527, ,000--over half
million women and a good number of ,
nen--all working through parent
eacher associations to make better ,
and better America.
Parents in rural districts are begin
ling to realize as never before the ,

ations perhaps more than city schools !;
ecause the children in rural schools

ccomplish much in overcoming the in

FERDINAND HAS BAD FTRE.

The business section of Ferdinand
was threatened with destruction yes
terday by fire which started from
an unknown cause in the livery barn
at about l0:30 and consumed that
building, a barber shop and the Nez-

was finally subdued. So serious did
the prospect appear at one time that
Craigmont and Cottonwood were call
ed upon for assistance to fight the

MADAM WHITE COMES BACK
Brazen Underworld Woman Buys May Stevens
Stuff in Old Boyle Hotel at 319 West Superior
Street to Outfit Vile House of Shame.

Madam Blanche White is credited
with being a sister Of Harry Whit
ney and he, in turn, is cre.-:ed with
being 2 brother of Old Molly. This
, sweet-scented trio blew Into Duluth
from Chicago and, for several years,
they have done their worst by the
Zenith City.
For some years, Whitney and his
Gentle wife have conducted the
notorious st. Paul hotel at 512
West Superior st. Old Madam Molly
was an inmate Of Madam Whites
various bagnios for /, time. She
then took charge of the notorious
Home hotel. Some weeks ago, under
the new administration, she secured
Q license to run the Ryan hotel,
down on the old Bowery.
Now comes information that the
shameless Madam Blanche White
has bought the furniture and fur
nishings Of the old Boyle hotel,
later called the Third Avenue hotel
and more recently called the Du-
luth Hotel, under the redlight oc-
.eupation of Madam May Stevens.
Madam May had to quickly get
out Of town, In John Kaluza's big
booze car, leaving her hotel in the
hands of care-taker. Kaluza re-

ers may hear something unpleasant.
The Grand hotel, adjoining the
noble Sellwood building, w:s abated
as a nuisance under Madam Whites
tenancy. For a time, she owned
and operated the notorious Home
hotel. Before that, she ran redlight
dives In Oliver and Superior. More
recently, she has been interested
in Lakewood Inn, a place that was
In trouble couple of summers ago,
while she was hanging around
there.
II the city authorities permit
such bold, brazen law violators and
underworld birds as bad as Harry and
Madam Whitney. Old Madam Molly
and Madam blanche White to follow
their own degenerate way In Duluth,
then 1t is time for decent people
and even the Ku Klux Khan to get
busy.

INTERNATIONAL FALLS, July
II. Especial to the Rip-saw.9-Fed-
eral men blew into this borderland
city not long since and brought
grief to George Hebert by raiding
his blindpig at 323 Second st. and
finding several gallons OF moon
shine whisky and a few swallows of
Canadian booze.
Colonel Hebert, who is consider
ed q bad egg. strongly committed
to disorder, indecency and lawless-
ness, was greatly surprised by the
sudden swoop Of the sleuths. He
was not even pleased.
''That was good catch, re-
marked Koochiching county's sher-
If, as he started for the jail with
Hebert in tow. In the course Of
time, Col. Hebert will be given
opportunity to explain his lawless
stunt to federal judge.
Napoleon LePage, alias Policy
LePage, was caught with alcohol
and whisky in the basement at
201 Third st. He was much peev-
ed by the intrusion OF the federal
men. After proper disposition was
made of Col. LePage by the federal
men, his sympathetic friends t-ied
