WILL FISH ON CLEARWATER lacal Fishermen Expect to Supply the CNy Markets with Saimaa This Fall—A Urge R ub Coming up the Columbia. George Seeley began work on a large fishing boat yestereay which he expects to use on the Clearwater this fall to carry his fish nets. Mr. Setey returned last week from a years stay in the sound country. While in Seattle he engaged in the fishing busi- ness but the rainy weather in that sec tion broke down his health and he con' eluded that the Lewiston valley waa good enough for him. Reports from Portland say that the largest run of salmon recorded in the h story of the northwest fisheries is com ing up the Columbia. This run will reach Lewiston in about two weeks when Mr. Seeley will take up his work and fol low the run to a point east of Mt. Idaho. This enterprise will give Lewiston mar- kets a fresh supply of salmon during the season. Land of From it« for the Homs Maker. The following is a fitting tribute paid to Lewiston and the auerounding country by a booklet issued by the O. R. & N. railroad for the information of home seekers from the eastern slates; ‘Lewiston, Idaho. — County seat of Nex Perce county, beautifully situated at the junction of the Snake and Clearwater rivera, aud surrounded hv one of the richest farming, fruit growiug, stock- raising and mining regions in the Pacific northwest. It was a camping-place of Lewis and Clark in October, 1803, and was the capital of Idaho Territory in 1863-4. During the great placer-mining bootn in 1861-5, more than $30,000,000 of the gold was handled at Lewiston. The population has more than doubled in the last four yeats, tieing now about 4,000. The town has fine waterworks, electric light and sewerage systems; five churches, the state normal school, private academies for boys and girls, and good pulic schools; three newspapers, includ- ing one live daily; three hanks, a num- ber of the largest mercantile houses in the state, two flouring-mills, two saw- mills, a foundry and a sash and door factory. The United States landkiffice is located here, and a steel bridge unites Lewiston with C’arkstnn 011 the op- posite side of Snake river, thus virtually combiuing the names of the two famous explores in a dual city. The Clarkaton Irrigation Company haa invested $i.ooo,- 000 in canals, ditches and other improve- ments. The city is the supply and dis- tribution point for the great mining re- gions about Buffalo Hump, Elk City and Florence and has daily lines ol stages to all important camps It is growing rapidly and no place in the country of- fers more or better opportunities to those seeking either homes or investments. The Lewiston region last year shipped an aggregate of about 10,000,000 bushels of wheat, oats, barley, aud flax, besides proportionate 'quantities of lumber, Ime- stock, wool and fruit. Its cattle ship- ments alone in 190O ran up to 19,000 head, worth $450,000. What is said to be the finest forest of white pine in the United States covers 3,000,too acres in Clearwater Valley, above I,ewi*ton ; and immediately tributary to the town are 1,500,000 acres of fine farming lands un- enclosed and unimproved. The county still contains 270,271 seres of free govern- ment land.’’ THE BIG FAIR THIS FALL Special Attracttow i t I t Seemed Ira ttit Fair this Fai—CMatnt af Six Cs satin Taking Uve Inters « .

Lewiston was tntirelv severed from the ontnida world along telephone and telegrafMe Vy lines.

The gîte lew ovir ami struck Mr. West on Ike shoulder making a bed bruise but both escaped without further injury. Reports from Vineland my that a gond dew of damage was done to the berry crop and late gardens. Mr. Foster, recently of Minnesota, re- marked that ha had experienced mach harrier winds in the eastern states but the scenes were changed, as Tuesday night’s gala tacked the 4th of July aspect of thunder and lightning am mg the clouds peculiar to such storms in the east, that the elements here mid nothing but pro- ceeded to work. ; 1 The wind came up suddenly and Me« two hours. Observer Alps of the ü, 8, weather bureau reported that the velocity of the wind reached 44 miles an hoar m 5 minutes but one mile was made at the rate of 50 miles per hoar. for the prize next September. The county commissioners of Aaotin county have voted an appropriation of $400 for the fair. Thia donation is $too more than last year and the people of that county expect to duplicate this gift by subscription. Meters Nava Arrived.

Power will he furnished from the company’s plant on Asotin creek"! Attacked- with Radu. At the uegro show, The Alabama Warblera, given last Saturday evening at Cuhlraac, the negro guard became en- tangled with the hoodlum element and as a result there was a rock fight. As the fight went on Jacob Haeberle and wife came out of the tent to start home and a stone hit Mr. Haeberle in the face and another struck Mra. Haeberle in the back. Mr. Haeberle protested against such treatment which angered the ruf- fians sud they followed him to ths Walla Walla hotel where the attack was re- newed with rocks and a pocket knife. His coat was cut in strips but the knife waa so dull that it would not enter the vest. The family escaped however and re- turned to their home near Rosetta with a number of bruises but glad they were safe. Mr. Haeberle is well known throughout the country. Funeral af Mrs. A. Binnard.
