MOSCOW TEAM WINS.
Defeat Orangeville at Foot
Ball—Score 11 to O.
To the second team of the Idaho
State University at Moscow belongs
the honor of being the first football
aggregation to defeat a Orange*
ville team. At the game Saturday
they walked over the locals to the
tune of 11 to 0. Although the
score was rather one-sided, the
game was closely contested from
the start. The visitors made moBt
of their ground by vigorous line
bucks, although some good end
running wub done. The locals,
owing to the fact that the visitors
outweighed them several pounds,
were nnable to make but few gains
through the Moscow line, and con
fined most of their plays to end
and quarterback runs. At the be
ginning of the last half, Williams,
who was playing quarter
locals, retired and Hanna
in his stead,
lie had blown for the last half,
Hanna, on a delayed pass, made a
brilliant thirty-yard ran lor the
locals. It was the longest run of
the contest. Coffin, Jewell and
Robertson were the stars of the
Moscow aggregation, their work
being especially fast. In the scrim
mage, just after which time was
called, G. Griffith had a deep gash
cut in his forehead. Seven stitches
were required to bind the wound.
If the wound had occurred just a
trifle lower his eyesight would have
been damaged. Van Wert, of the
locals, sustained a fractured rib
and a broken nose in one of the
mixups. He, with Griffith, Hanna,
Thing and Leeper did the best
work for the locals. The Grange
ville aggregation, which had never
met together before the contest,
played excellent ball under such
conditions. The game was at
tended by a large crowd. The
stately appearance of the contest
ing teams together with the im
promptu braes band, which par
aded Main street just before the
contest, did much in getting a
good crowd out at the contest.
Following is the lineup of the two
teams:
Moscow
Stein
Robertson
Barto
Nesbit
McPherson
Howard, capt It
Jewell
Armstrong
Coffin
Frazer
Savage
Perkins
Magee
Solibakke
The officials of the game were:
Simpson of Moscow, referee; Green
ough, umpire; Lewis, timekeeper;
Grattan and Wood, linemen.
The visitors were a gentlemanly
lot of yonng athletes and the best
of feeling prevailed on both sides
during the game.

Miss Robie's Lecture.
Our citizens were offered a highly

occasian being one of Miss Robie's
lectures, "Old Mexico." As
foretold in our last issue, she es

wonderful country. We walked
with her, we mounted burros, we

a highly appreciative concourse,
seemed to follow her closely in her

STAR ROUTE
HAIL CONTRACTS
a
a
a
Department Requires Bidders to Reside
on Routes.
PROPOSALS WILL BE RECEIVED ROW
Subcontracting for Profit Will
Not be Permitted.
Robert H. Barclay, assistant
superintendent of railway mail ser
vice, aud in charge of the trans
portation of mail in Montana,
Idaho and Wyoming, was in
Orangeville Friday. He is looking
after the letting of new mail con
tracts on star routes in this slate
and will exercise great care in per
mitting only resident contractors
to secure places. Iu speaking ou
the subject Mr. Barclay said:
"The postoffice department has
issued its quadrienniai advertise
ment inviting bids for the perform
ance of mail service on star routes
for the next four-year contract
term beginning July 1, 1906,
throughout the fourth contract sec
tion comprising the states of Mon
tana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon,
etc. Proposals may be submitted
now, and iu any case must reach
the office of the Second Assistant
Postmaster General, at Washing
ton, not later than 4:30 p. m., De
cember 5. The advertisement of
service is in pamphlet form and
may be Been at any postoffice. It
is the earnest wish and intention
of the postoffice department to
place these contracts with resident
parties who will actually perform
the service. To that end certain
restrictions and obligations are im
posed relative to the residence of
bidders, their good faith, and their
intention in the matter of pei-son
ally carrying out their agreements,
but the rights of well-intentioned
bidders will be carefully respected.
Contractors are not required to
actually carry mail in person, bat
they must actually operate, super
vise and reside on the routes
awarded to them. Subcontract
ing for the purpose of making a
profit to an original ooutractor will
uot be permitted; will uot be per
mitted at all, in fact, except when
justified as a measure of relief to a
deserving contractor whom unfor
seen circumstances may have
placed in a position where such
relief is necessary. People are
cautioned to not lend the use of
their names as contractors to spec
ulators who attempt to make use
of them for that purpose. Con
tracts secured through fraud and
misrepresentation will be re-let to
proper parties, and the fraudulent
bidders and their sureties held for
costs and damages. Persons en
gaged in any such frauduleut
schemes may expect to be proceed
ed agaiDst for perjury. Combina
tions of two ot more persons to
control, restrict or prevent com
petitive bidding wilt be proceeded
against, and contracts will not
knowingly be made with such per
sons. The intention of the post
office department ie to have the
local service performed by local
parties, who will take pride in the
faith! nl performance of Bervice,
enjoy the confidence and respect of
the public, and pay their bills.
The department will hereafter pay
its contractors monthly, which is
an important and gratifying de
parture from the old system of
quarterly payment. Any capable
person has a free and open chance
to secure a straight, clean govern
ment contract, with sure pay, con
genial and lucrative employment,
with the possibility of considerable
C rofit from express and passenger
oeiness. A lively and healthy
competitive bidding should begin
at once. Any postmaster may be
called upon to furnish additional
information, proposal blanks, en
velopes, and anything of the kind
needed by bidders

FOUND GOOD ORE.
Will Soon Install Larger Ma
chinery.
A. R. Dunn, of Wardner, one of
the principal stockholders iu the
McKinley mine on Salmon river,
passed through town Sunday from
the mine on his way to Wardner.
He was well pleased with tho out
look at the mine and reports that
everything is running smoothly.
In a run of 48 hours of the mill
8162 was taken from the plates
and about 1600 pounds of concen
trates. The concentrates assayed
892 per ton. This run was made
on the main body of ore, 20 feet
wide, exclusive of a streak of ore
which ruDB very high aud which
lays along the banging wall. Mr.
Dunn reports that a tunnel is to be
driven soon to tap the vein about
400 feet lower than where the
present tunnel extends. This will
give a depth of 800 ft at the work
ings. If the new tunuel proves
as good with the depth attained,
machinery of greater capacity will
be installed at ouce.
"DOC" MARTIN AGAIN.
Idaho County Probably Hears
the Last of Him.
Il is reported that Doc Martiu,
who spent several months in the
Idaho county jail recently, stirred
up the passengers of the Owl train
at Lewiston Saturday evening. He
informed Chief Engineer Pearson's
private secretary that someone had
attempted to murder him. He
finally became boisterous and un
ruly and was taken in charge by
some of the passengers who turned
him over to the sheriff at Moscow.
It is supposed that he was under
the iufluence of morphine, in being
one of his pastimes to partake of
the deadly drug. Martin was held
in the Idaho county jail on several
charges, among them being murder,
arson and theft.
Mrs. Bonebrake III.
Word was received here Sunday
by will Bonebrake, from bis brother
Alva and wife, who are now at
Coos Bay, Oregon. Mr. Bone
brake's letter conveys the sad in
telligence that Mrs. Bonebrake is
seriously ill with appendicitis at
that place. Sbe has been gradual
ly ailing and when the letter was
written an operation had been de
cided upon. Mr. Bonebrake left
here in hopes of gaining relief from
rheumatism which has affected
him so long and now this second
illness comes upon them. It is
sincerely hoped by their many
friends here that the operation on
Mrs. Bonebrake will prove in every
way successful aud that both she
and Mr. Bonebrake will return in
the best of health.
Died In Jail.
The following is taken from the
Spokesman-Review of October 16:
"Walla Walla, Wash., Oct. 16—
Charles Ormsby died in the county
jail here today of a ruptured blood
vessel in the stomach, at the age of
26. He was to have been tried

preferred by Nellie Daniels, a 16
year-old girl residing at Flora,
Ore. He bad been ill for about a
month, but was thought to be im
proving until 2 o'clock this morn
ing, when be was taken suddenly
worse."
Ormsby will be remembered here
as the catcher who played with the
local baseball team last summer.
