INDIAN FISHES.
NEAR DAM AND
GOES TO JAIL
Simon Smith Is Wise Young
Brave, but Not too Wise
for Officer at Kooskia
Redskin Has Children for
Sentries, but They Fail
to Keep Him Well Posted

Simon Smith, he went a fishing,
For to catch a whale.
He cast his line too near the dam,
And caught a term in jail.
Because he was caught fishing with
in 300 feet of the dam of the KOoskia
Mills x Power Co., in the Clearwater
river, Simon Smith, young Nezperce
Indian brave, is in durance vile, for
Simon, wher. arraigned before Justice
of the Peace J. M. Shaw, at Kooskia
drew fine of 500 and ninety DAYS
Imprisonment in the county Jail.
Smith was wise young brave-at
least he thought he was wise-for
when he decided to try his luck fishinf
near the dam, where it is illegal to
angle for the speckled trout, or any
other fish for that matter, Simon en-
listed the aid of several school
as sentries to warn him of the
approach of an officer or any other
person who might inform against the
youthful redskin.
But the children whom Simon had
posted as lookouts were not as vigliant
as the officers. Deputy Game Warden
Hort caught Simon right in the act,
pinched him and haulded him before
the justice Of the peace of Kooskia pre-
cinct - 49, :,
Simon admitted he was guilty OF
grave infraction Of the law, and sent
ence was at once melted out to him.
Simon is well acquainted at the county
Jail, for only few weeks ago he was
released, after serving a term behind
the bars of the county prison for pos
sesing booze. He is this week renewing
with some of the other
boys in the coop, and seems to be not

INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENT
HEARING HELD HERE

Hearings on claims before the state
industrial accident board were held IN
Grangeville Monday by George w
Suppiger. member of the board.
First case to be heard was that of
Fay Andrews, who claims he is entitled
to compensation. for loss of a leg,

"a 1922, in highway work on the
Adams road. While pulling a stump.

and half day longer, and then went
home. On June 2, according to the
testimony, he went to Kooskia. and
consulted DR.. J. B. Verberkmoes, who
amputated Andrews left leg on June
IA.
1t was pointed out by the state that
four years ago Andrews suffered from
inflammation of the marrow of the bone
in his left leg and part of the bone
was cut away. Afterward another
operation was performed on the bone.

THOUGHT
ON FOREST
SAVING

Week of April % to % has been
designated Forest Protection week by
proclamation of President Warren G..
Harding, and during the next week the
public is requested to unite with the
government and press in thoughtful
effort to conserve the forest resources
of the nation.
In connection with Forest Protection
week, the Grangeville office of the
Nezperce National forest has issued
the following statement:
twenty-five years from now and
possibly in less time, the cutting of
timber in the mountains back of
Grangeville will be in progress, and in
order to insure that industry it should
be the concern Of every conscientious
citizen to aid in the preservation of
that timber from fire That is one and
the greatest part that local citizens
can take in responding to the call for
the preservation of our forest resour-
ces.
last year, in Idaho and Montana,
$163, 100 worth of timber, reproduction
and forage was destroyed by fire,
which cost $205,000 to control and
extinguish. Nearly 80 per cent of
these fires were preventable. Someone
was careless, someone did not use pre-
caution, and the toll Of loss and cost
mounted up. We fight for liberty and
our rights, why not fight for some of
the wherewithall to enjoy them?
"The United States is using five
times as much forest grown paper than
it did thirty-five years ago We are
manufacturing one-half of tire lumber
in the world and use 80 per cent of it,
We are using more timber every
year and cutting it four times as fast
as it grows. The end is inevitable,
in twenty-five or thirty years we must
look to South America, Siberia and 9th
er foreign countries for much of our
lumber and pay the increased cost OF
production.
Every earnest citizen who is con-
cerned- about the future of the forests
would do well to think in terms of fire
prevention and the preservation of our
forest resources. The forst fires and
waste that can be prevented now will
mean increased wealth for the future.

PICKS UP ROCK

A rock, assaying $45.47 in gold
and $500 in silver was found
by Ralph Long, in a field on the
