the
Court of Appeals at San Francisco So
of
7,
in
and
V.
Decides.
WILL PUT AN BID TO "BOOTLEGGING'
Will Also Affect Transporta
tion of Liquor to This
County.
The Nez Perce Indian reservation
will no longer be an attractive field
for bootleggers. The circuit court
of appeals at San Francisco has by
its decision placed the reserva
tion under state control and licen
ses to sell liquor there will be
granted by the county authorities
the same as at any other poiut.
The decision rendered was in the
Dick case, where the defendant
was convicted in the federal court
at Moscow of introducing liquor on
the reservation. Dick's attorneys,
G. W. Tannahill and F. E. Fogg,
carried the case to the court of
appeals where it was reversed and
Dick ordered discharged. The
result is far-reaching in its effect
as heretofore no saloons were al
lowed on the reservation, and the
several towns in that territory
were infested with bootleggers who
made no end of trouble for both
local and federal authorities. Be
sides, all liqnor used in Grange
ville had to be hauled overland from
Lewiston, as it could not be trans
ferred from railroad cars to wagons
at Stites, that town being on the
reservation. Saloons will undoub
tedly be opened at once in all of
the reservation towns and it is
estimated that the money received
from licenses issued in those places
will aggregate fully 920,000. Up
to this time no license could be
granted in these towns, and while
they had to contend with all the
bad effects of liqnor selling they
were unable to get the advantages
of the license money.
Tbe decision is generally wel
comed by business men as*it is
believed a better class of men will
get hold of tbe liqnor business and
much of the trouble originating in
"bootlegging joints" will cease.

Testing McKinley Ore.
J. W. Dunn of Wardner, one of
the stockholders of the McKinley
mine on Salmon river, was a visitor
this week enroute to the mine for
the purpose of examining the rich
ore shoots recently uncovered in
the property. If the reports of the
manager are correct they have ore
in sight that will assay into the
hundreds of dollars In gold per ton,
and enough of it to make the Mc
Kinley the biggest and richest
mining property in the county.
Mr. Dana will take samples and
have them tested and treated for
values and process best adapted for
tbeir redaction. They now have
a small stamp mill, with which
they have been tenting their ores,
and find that they save 80
cent of the vaines on the platee.
