V. BAKER & SON “‘Where Quality and Prices Meet” WANT TO JOIN LEWIS. Farmers of the Gilbert coun- try, feeling aggrieved over the treatment they have received for several years in the matter of getting a better grade leading from Orofino to that section, held a meeting recently to dis- cuss the advisability of leaving Clearwater county and going in- to Lewis county. A large maj- ority favored the plan, and it was decided to employ an attor- ney to get the matter in the pro- per form to go before the legisla- ture. The valuation of the ter- ritory is approximately $257,- 224.—Kamiah Progress. CHANGE NAME OF STATION Agent W. D. Kirby, has re- ceived a letter from Superinten- dent R. E. Hanrahan, of the Northern Pacific, stating that the matter of changing the name of the local station to Craigmont, effective June 17, has been approved. Mr. Kirby also received in- structions to notify the trustees of Vollmer and Ilo, that it has} been approved and the change! will be made effective June 17. The prompt attention of Mr.) Hanrahan in the above matter is | appreciated by the citizens of Craigmont.—Ilo Register. A NEAR BURN. The A. J. Stuart family were greeted on their return from Sunday school, Sunday after- noon, with a dence smoke pour- ing out from their front room. On investigation a spot some three feet across, close to the front room stove, was found to be on fire. The building would doubtless have been in flames had it not been for the timely arrival of the family. Neigh- bors rushed in to help and the danger was soon over. No ma- terial damage was done except the scenting up of the entire house with the smoke. Stites Enterprise. TRAIN SERVICE BETTER. The people of the Genesee ter- ritory, as well as those all along the Genesee branch of the N.

The train men explain this fact by stating that they leave Pullman 80 minutes earlier and have less switching to do at that place. Everybody is pleased with the change. Genesee News. MACHINERY FOR MILL, The machinery for the new flouring mill being erected at this place has all arrived and has been unloaded preparatory to in- stallation. The equiptment is of the most modern sort. The motive power will be electricity, two motors being used—one for the flour-making machinery and the other for the feed mills. Work on the building is held up temporarily because of the frosty nights, which make con- crete construction inadvisable. Just as soon as this danger of | - | freezing is past, the building will be hurried along and after its completion the placing of the machinery will be only a matter of days.—Nezperce Herald. MAJOR FENN IN NEW ROLE, Major Frank A. Fenn, who for about 20 years has been connect- ed with the national forest ser- vice, is about to resign and re- turn to Kooskia, where he ex- pects to spend the remainder of his time on this revolving ball. Major Fenn likes Kooskia, and people there like theMajor. We don’t believe he has an enemy in that locality, but we are afraid it will not be so always, as we are} told he has decided to enter the newspaper game and will become | editor-in-chief of the Kooskia Mountaineer, If the Major can hold down that job and make no enemies, it will be because he will say nothing worth while. But we look for him to say things. It may seem rather late in the day for Major Fenn to take up He time,|/is a regular fountain of know- ledge, with a vocabulary that would make some of the talented contributors to the Congression- al Record ashamed of their ef- forts. We look forward with much anxiety to the revised edi tion of the Mountaineer.—Lew- iston Banner. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. And the old hen moves in a set of her own. Blessings of poverty may look good to the millionaire. Few people feel called upon to condense the milk of human kindness. After some men get a start in life they don’t know when to stop. Frankness makes people dis- agreeable, but not all disagree- able people are frank. Cold cash makes an excellent hot weather comfort. It is better to stay out than to get married and fall out. No wise man ever gives advice until asked for it. It takes an extemporaneous speaker to talk fluently about nothing. A man never forgives his ene- mies until he wishes them pros- perity. Happy is the man who sees things as they should be instead of as they are. Wit is a peculiar kind of talk that often leads to pulled noses and broken heads. According to an old bachelor, the nice thing about getting married is that you don’t have to. It is far easier to criticise the small mistakes of others than to} avoid making a few large ones yourself. Women may be vain without being pretty, but it’s almost im- possible for them to be pretty without being vain.
