spillman to Speak at Nezperce.

The visit of DR.. spillman to the

Railway, that Nezperce will be in
cluded in Mr.. Spillman IS itinerary.
He will deliver an address to the
farmers and business men of Lewis

other notables interested in agricul-
ture who will also deliver addresses.
The occasion will be a big one FOR
agriculture in our county and it is

THE LOCAL MARKETS.

There is a decided slump in wheat
The quotations at this point yester
day were: Red, LOS; white, LOS
Barley and oats are running neck and
neck at 1.7O per hundredweight.
The new crop is finding it's way in
to the warehouses at a lively rate, az
one will note by the heavy traffic on
all roads leading into the storage cen
ters. To date the Rochdale Co. at this
place has received 1900 bushels Of
new grain, and the other warehouses
are having proportionate influx. w.
F. johnson and Turner brothers have
been making the heaviest deliveries
at this point.
The hog market is also showing a
backsliding tendency this week. On
Tuesday the Nezperce Rochdale Co.
shipped to market double-deck car
of $50 head. The price paid the farm
ers for this shipment was 1915 per

eArHER1Ne AUTO KEYS.

There is something of a mystery
surrounding the disappearance of the
battery lock keys from several cars
in the Miller & Heston Garage at this
place last Friday. Like condolences
have also been reported from garages
in Craigmont and Winchester. Wheth-
er this gathering up of car keys is the
work of one person or several is not
known, and the object in such col
lection is even more uncertain. But
the county and local officers having
jurisdiction in such matters have been
of the losses and pretty close
tab on the cars from which the key5
were taken will be kept.

THE Russell NEWS.

There is plenty Of labor for harvest
this year, with $50 as basis for the
common run and up to SO and 81 for
the skilled type. At that, we found
the streets of Nezperce crowded Sat
urday night with applicants for jobs.
Mrs. Kelly of Nezperce is cooking
for the George Hallett binding crew.
Guy Shawley of Orofino is bringing
his outfit over to haul grain from the
Russell country to Greer.
Herbert Chawker died of epileptic
fits Thursday, July 81, at the Orofino
asylum. He had been subject to these
attacks for several years and about
one year ago was confined in the asy-
lum. He was pioneer Of the Greer
section of Lewis county, and had an
improved fruit ranch at the foot of
the Greer grade. He leaves brother
in California and niece in New York
City.
Agents from the Idaho University
were looking over the Russell distcirt
for English black currant bushes but
were unable to find any, although they
tried several different ways to unearth
them. These bushes are said to carry
the white pine blister rust.
The primaries in Russell passed off
quietly, with small attendance, due
largely to the early harvest. The third
party was active, made the usual
noise and will accomplish the same re-
suit as heretofore. But they are
necessary adjunct to our political sys-
tenn. They gather in the hasbeens
from the two old parties. The Repub-
leans are planting full ticket in
he field, although Russell did not
yote for their candidates for sheriff
md probate judge.

At meeting of the school boarG
last Monday night it was decided tc
open the coming term of our public
schools on September 18th. This date
was considered best for all concerned
as by that time harvest will be well
over and the high school students es
pecially will not be delayed from en-
tering on the opening date.
The high school course offered here
this year viii be found an improve
ment over that of the past two years,
as it is more comprehensive. This
school has made an enviable record
and it is the desire to make it lit
tie better each year as conditions will
permit. 1t ranks with the best of
them, as its product shows. Young
people outside the district who CON
template attending high school will
find it worth their while to come to
Nezperce.
The faculty for the high school and
grades is as follows:
U. N. Terry Superintendent.
Miss Beatrice Albright, English.
Miss Margaret Collins, of Moscow,
Arthur Ramstad, of Pullman, Agri-
culture, Science and Athletics.

Eighth grades.
Miss Roxie Roe, Fifth and Sixth

THE KAMIAH FAIR SEPT. 25-as-27.

Last week the premium lists of the
Kamiah Fair were put in circulation.
If you desire one, write or call the
secretary, Harry w. Dissmore. You
will find it an attractive pamphlet
carrying 20 pages of interesting de-
tail about one of the best fairs in
Idaho, and certainly there is no more
appropriate place for holding fair
nor one more alluring to lovers of
beautiful scenery than Kamiah. The
new five per cent grade into the val
ley makes this so.
This years fair will feature more
than ever live stock and farm pro-
ducts, without in any way decreasing
the attention paid the garden, orchard
and poultry departments. The enter
tainment line will be better than ever,
and the combination assures visitors
full value for their effort.

Club at the Nezperce Hotel last night,
by and between H. A. Stone, district
club agent of the Idaho University,
the Lewis County Fair management
and the Commercial Club members.
The undertaking is large one, but it
is right in line with this community s
disposition, and this fact impelled
Mr.. Stone 3 action in considering our
invitation to have the District Clubs
Fair held here. This fair is the an.
nual climax, summing up, of the year IS
work of the Boys and Girls Clubs in
the ten counties of North Idaho. 1t

of the brightest young men and wom-
en- of these counties, the bringing to-
gether of $50 head of prize-class live
stock, and represents the results at
tained by 500 Boys and Girls Club
workers.
Mr.. Stone, and Mr.. E. F. Rinehart
# the state live stock department, who
accompanied him, put the matter
'learly before the meeting, its magni-
ude and the expense it entailed, and
he assembly enthusiastically accepted
he conditions and assured the visit
ng gentlemen that this community's
'art. of the program would be gladly
AIKEN care of. In pursuance of the
York contemplated, President Hard
ing of the Lewis County Fair Asso-

gone over prior to the adjournment
of the meeting, and this morning the
committee completed arrangements
with Messers. Stone and Rinehart sat
isfactory to all concerned.
Included i'm the details considered
was the entertainment of the Club
members who attend the Fair. The
provision for this was readily made
by the local committee in securing the
Fraternal Hall, wherein will be placed
cots, for the sleeping quarters of the
girls, and the buildings in which G.
J. Miller has his office will be simi-
larry equipped for sleeping quarters
of the boys. Large cook houses have
been spotted and will be requisitioned
for preparing and serving the food
for the young visitors; this plan car
rying out the camp idea in connection
with the Fair.
The prizes to be awarded at this
fair will be announced later, but they
viii be sufficient in size to make the
assembling of these products worth
while.
A team of three, who win the cham
honors at this fair, viii be
