Using Coal for Fuel. For the first time in the history of Bonners Ferry coal is being used as a fuel in place of wood, price of wood went out of sight this fall, and there was not enough brought in to supply the demand, even at the price asked. Hereto fore, four-foot wood has been sel ling for $2.50 to $2.75 per cord. For the past three months it has been from $3.50 to $5.00, accord ing to the stringency. In addition to this it costs $1.00 to $1.50 a cord to have it sawed and put in the wood shed, so that no one can depend on less than $5.00 to $6.00 per cord. This is a peculiar con dition with thousands of cords that might be cut in the timber, almost adjoining the townsite. The result is that the larger consumers of ucl are substituting coal for wood. Coal can be laid down in Bonners Ferry, and delivered to the con sumer, at $7.00 per ton wholesale, and the consumers figure that one ton of coal will go as far as two cords of wood. In other words, $7.00 worth of coal will go as faras $10.00 or $12.00 worth of wood, at prices that have been charged. While the Hehald is glad to note the prosperity of those who do a wood business, enabling them to make more money at some other occupation, yet we would rather sec this money paid for coal paid to the people living here and the money remain at home. But, of course, at the present difference in price a great deal of coal will, of The necessity, be shipped in. j A party of Great Northern cn Surveying for New Depot. gineers has been in Bonners Ferry niOSi ofthp week, working in tho yards. Whdo no olficia! statement ||g obtainable, it is presumed that their work has to do with the j>ro-; position of moving the depot from | its present location to a point just west of the south end of Main street, and the enlarging of the yards. As reported in these columns some! [ weeks ago, the Great Northern has' î u • . , -, this change in contemplation. The ! ri ßbt-of-way agent was here a few j »«eks ago and obtained figures ou the cost of some additional ground, ; . , .. ; The engineers niav be merely tig . . J urmg on the cost of the change, or 1 . . , . . they may be laying out the yards to conform to the proposed change, w^ii» .» ii* No deal has yet been closed for either the town or the j ! private ■ î i .! property required under the new , plans.

Railroad Employees Protest. Hundreds of thousands of rail those dependent upon them repre sent upward of 6,000,000 of people in this country whose earnings ap proximately amount to $500,000, 000 annually. •' c claim that we are entitled to fair and impartial consideration in the framing or adoption of any national legislation that threatens our general prosper ity. Since the inception of this movement for national legislation upon railroad rates, all railroad employees have, from time to time and in various ways, expressed their convictions. The Brother hood of Railroad Trainmen with a membership of 80,000, at their an anal meeting in Buffalo last spr ng, emphatic nature against any ro duction in railroad rates. The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers and the Brotherhood of Loco motive Firemen have expressed similar views by official utterances, and tho same can be said of the Switchmen's National Association, The order of Railroad Conductors indotsed resolutions of the same nature. The membership of these organizations is now a little more j than a quarter of a 'there are still behind us another f u n million of aborers in the rail way employees are represented by the protest that «the railroad en gineers, fi einen, conductors,switch men and trainmen, through the officers of their organizations, have made to President Roosevelt against proposed railroad legislation.

The grounds cost 11775, making a total outlay to date of about $9125. It will cost about ♦2500 to run the I school this year, making a total liability for the year of 111,025. j in addition to the above about $1200 was taken from this year's ; revenues to apply on last year's deficiency. To offset this, the district has j received $4000 from the license j ] The trustees arc selling fund. bonds to the amount of $6000.
