rumor that floats about town-eyen
stories made up to kid" them-are
given space.
The Progress knows what 1t is talk
ing about, for we have many times
attempted to verify such news (?p
only to find it far outside the truth,
or else worded so as to convey an
untruthful meaning. The Kamiah fair,
the new highway, Mr. Readings at
tempts last year to sell the Western
States Lumber cOnfpany's property
Mr.. Edwards supposed operations and
intentions, and a number of other 10.
cal affairs, have been served up to
the outside world in this manner, until
Kamiah must have a reputation far
beyond its ability to live up to, as
fine a place as it is.
Our ideal in giving folks the news
of Kamiah is that the exact truth is
what our beautiful valley deserves.
In other words, the truth about KAN
iah is the best that can be told of
it. Other places may need exaggera
ton, but Kamiah "as is" is good
enough for anyone.

IDAHO WILL RECEIVE
MORE FOREST MONEY

On July 1, Montana will receive
$64,SS9 and Idaho S114,764, under sec
ton s of the federal aid road act
approved July IL, 1916, according to
announcement made at the office of
the district forester at Missoula.
The act provides for an appropria-
ton of $10.000,000, one million a year
for ten years, which amount is ap-
pOrtioned among the states according
to the area of national forests and
Montana will receive a total of $685.
1888, and Idaho total of $9SS.114.
Twenty-eight states in which ma.
tional forests are located, wholly or
in part, will share in the distribu-
ton of these funds, as will also Alas
ka and Porto Rico. These moneys
are expended only upon cooperative
agreement with states and with local
authorities, and should not be confused
with road building funds provided by
other acts for use on roads and trails
within the national forests. This ap-
portionment is the last but one of what
is commonly known as the section 6
fund, the final distribution becoming
effective July 1, 1925.

PAPERS COMMENT
ON NEWS INACCURACIES

Nezperce Herald: The Lewiston
Tribune, which used to have something
OF a metropolitan air and really gave
the town of Lewiston the feel of a
city, has slipped back into the coun-
try newspaper class and seems content
with being an unfair competitor with
every country newspaper in the Lew
istOn district, even going so far as to
have its correspondents give over the
phone the contents or the country
newspapers as soon as they are issued,
and then carrying such matter as
regular dispatch news from that com.
munity. Being issued daily, the Tri-
bune has an advantage, of course,
and, like the big boy who'd rather
play with the smaller boys because
it's easier to bully them than TO COM
pete with those of his size, it wants
"all the apple" Instead of keeping
abreast of things like the Spokane.

outgrow it.

Kamiah Progress: The Herald is
quite right in its estimate of this
sections only "eity paper" and we
have heard number of Lewiston
residents regret the fact that the Tri-
bune is so far behind the times in
its service to the city. We have noted
a number of instances where news
stories in the country weeklies were
lifted bodily by the Tribune and no
credit given The Progress hasn't
been treated in this manner, however,
for the Tribune maintains a special
correspondent here For accurate
news. however, it might be better to
take the Progress stories, inasmuch
as the news regularly sent from Kan
iah is VIGOROUSLY inaccurate and mis-

WILL OPEN CARIBEL
MILL ABOUT APRIL

Kamiah Progress: T.. T.. Edwards,
whose coming to Kamiah to open the
Caribel mill and start logging opera
tiOns on the Western States holdings
has been eagerly looked forward to
for several weeks, arrived Monday.
He did not find conditions ready at
the mill or in the woods, however, so
returned to Valley and will be back
some time next week. Mr.. Edwards
found the snow too deep in the woods
and the grounds at the mill too wet
and muddy to permit of tine work he
wishes to do. He plans on extending
the railroad into the timber, which
cannot be done until the snow is gone
At the mill, the pond has to be re-
built and considerable other work done
about the mill site, as well as the
repairing necessary to the machinery
1t can be stated, however, on quite
reliable authority, that the operations
will be well started by April 1, since
Mr.. Edwards is anxious to get both
woods and mill in operation. About
half mile of railroad has to be
built in extending the line to where
the logs are to be cut, as 1t is planned
to move the logs wholly by rail to
the mill when cutting off the Western
States lands. Logs cut near the mill
will be handled with trucks.
Mr. Edwards was accompanied by
two representatives of the Occur d'A-
lese Lumber company, who are seek
ing a contract for n portion of the
mills output. None of the workmen
who are to assist in Mr.. Edwards op-
erations have as yet arrived.

EARLY MORNING FIRE
 AROUSE TOWNSMEN

A fire alarm vas turned in at i;i5 Tuesday morning by Henry Gumm. baker at the North Pole Bakery. and Fire Chief Felix How land and his crew of fire fighters rushed to the scene and are accred- tied with doing fine work.
 The fire. which was in a small house near the corner of 2nd. and Hunter Streets. was not noticed un- til it was we'll under way and all of the chemical was used from the tanks without curbing it's progress to any great extent. It was then necessary 10 hook up the water sys- tenn and two heavy streams were then poured into the flames. Before long goodly crowd of townspeo- pie were aroused and the fire de- partment was greatly aided by cit- fzenry, all of which was greatly ap- preciated by the chief and the bal ance of the department.
 The building is the property Of Chas. Mason and was in the pro- cess of being overhauled. Ii had been moved short distance all ready and Fred Frease. who had been doing the carpenter work, was the loser of all his tools, which he had left in the house when he had finished his work the day previous. There was no furniture in the place but the whole inside was pretty well gutted and is practical ly a complete loss.
 The department did good work in cunfning the blaze to the one structure saving all the adjoining property without damage. The or isin of the blaze is not known, There was no wiring, it is said. and the chances for spontaneous combustion were also slight.

FAIR WEATHER GREETS
 LATEST SAILING STEAMER

When the Steamer Cordova weighed anchor and left early Wed nesday morning for Seattle. it did so as the latest sailing in years from this port.
 The Cordoya, which arrived Sun considerable fog and mist was en- countered and it was necessary to cruise up and down the coast for a few hours before they could ascer- tain the exact place to anchor. The mild weather made il possible to work the cargo without delay and the ship was ready to sail in forty eight hours from the time of her arrival
 The object of the Cordova mak- ing this late trip was that the car go shipments this fall were unus- uallv heavy on account of the great amount of work to be carried on next Spring in the mining and dredging lines and there was g sur prus of about ive-hundred tons when the Alameda had her capac- ity.
 This trip was appreciated by the candidates for the various offices as well as others who are interested in politics who were going outside, as it gave them a chance to stay for the election and also get the returns from this precinct before saIltng. The steamship company through Mir. James p. Daily. local agent and Mir E. T Stannard, vice president at the Seattle office, sent special orders to hold the ship in port, weather being favorable. un- til the election was over.
 Sixty seven passengers took ad vantage of the late sailing which enabled them to enjoy the longest season here for years, many hay ing cancelled their passage on the Alameda to wait for this sailing. Mir Daily took passage on the yes sel and will spend the Winter in one of the offices on the outside. returning on the first boat in the Spring.
