MOSCOW AND THE STATE HIGH

Moscow is a mere detail in which the
citizens of Moscow take very little
interest. Any route out of Moscow
will be a good one and have much

roads to the limit of their ability.

zens.
Moscow is like a little girl in this
town, who was very fond of two sis
ters who lived next door. She really
seemed to like one a little better than
the other and some times said so. One
day the sisters asked her which she
liked the best and she said, very dip
lomatically: "I like you both just
the same—Mother said I must."
That describes Moscow's position !
in the highway matters. We like ev- |
ery district and want to help it, be
cause that road will help Moscow,
directly and indirectly. Every mile ;
of road built in Latah county helps
in which -
the road runs, the nearby towns, the
county of Latah, Moscow and north
ern Idaho. It is like dropping a peb
ble in a pool. The waves (of good
results in the case of the road) spread
from the center to the outer extrem
ity. Any good road movement in
Latah county can get the unqualified
endorsement of Moscow citizens.

IS COLDEST SPOT
ALL OF ALASKA SUFFERS WITH
SEVERE WEATHER THIS
WINTER—LIVES LOST
JUNEAU, Alaska.-—For generations
popular conception has pictured the
North Pole as the coldest place on
earth, although scientists and explor
ers have proved otherwise. In fact
Nansen and other explorers said that
45 or 60 degrees below zero was cold
weather for the 75th to 80th paral
lels Birches, Alaska, however, 55
miles below Fort Gibbon, has several
times hit the 87 and 88 mark below
zero, and is therefore believed to be
the coldest spot in the north, if not in
the world.
Nome and Seward Peninsula have
been experiencing a record winter for
cold weather. During the greater
part of this month the temperature
in Nome averaged 40 degrees below
zero, the lowest recorded being 57 de
grees below zero. Similar weather
has been reported from nearly every
point on the peninsula.
Severe storms have prevented trav
el to the Teller district, north of here,
for the past month. One man, John
Hengess, who essayed to make the
trip to Cape Prince of Wales, got lost
on the trail and finally arrived at
Lost River with but half his dogs, the
rest of the team having succumbed to
the cold. B. Neilly, also bound from
Nome to the cape with supplies for
the natives there, lost most of his
dog-team of 15 near Cape Wooley.
After two days spent in sleeping bags
under the snow, Neilly escaped with
frozen hands and feet.
Seward, Alaska, has sent out an
urgent call for a dentist. All the
dentists of that city enlisted in either
the army or navy and none has yet
returned, so that the population of
Seward has gone without the ser
vices of a dentist since last Octo
ber.
William Holmes of Valdez has one
of the finest collections of Alaskan
numbering some hundreds.
Holmes is a lineman and ardent bot
anist. For years he has made a hob

IDAHO FRUIT CROP
PROSPECT IS GOOD
BELIEVED THAT STATE WILL
PRODUCE A BUMPER CROP
AND GET GOOD PRICES
BOISE.—Idaho fruit growers have
every reason to be optimistic from
the present outlook for the coming
season, according to Guy Graham,.
state horticulturist. The release of
export regulations served to suddenly
boost the price of apples about $1
a box, the first time, according to
Mr. Graham, the fruit growers have
shared the war time prices. *
He believe that even in the event
that the Idaho crop of fruit this fall
is a bumper one, the general pros
perity of the country and abundance
of money in the possession of the
purchasing people will insure excel
lent prices and a ready market.
Mr. Graham believes that Idaho
fruit growers should beat the weath
er man this season. Idaho has nev
er known two successive fruit fail
ures and that this is the year for a
bumper crop that should duplicate
1910 as a year of prosperity for
Idaho fruit men. He urges that fruit
men take every possible precaution
to protect their fruit against frost
this spring should it threaten and
makes a particular appeal for clean
fruit that may be obtained by care
ful attention to spraying.
He advocates careful pruning at
once if it has not already been done
to increase the quality of the fruit.

AXD BOLSHEVISM
BUTTE.—The Patriotic Citizens of
America, recently organized here and
already abbreviated in the press to
the "P. C. O. A." has undertaken to
bring loyal employers and employes
together, while eliminating the I. W.
W. and other radical elements. The
movement has taken impetus since
the recent strike of the I. W. W. and
other orgamzatlons which closed the
mines for 10 days nnd ■ necessitated
the presence of United States troops
here
The P. Ç. O. A. In formal resolutions
declares there is imminence r f a 'Bol
revolt" in America and calls on
all employers to hire only Americans
whose loyalty is unquestioned.
Believing that exorbitant cost of liv
ing may enter into unrest, the P. C.
A. also has n^med committees to,
investigate prices for the necessities
of life in Butte and ascertain whether
charges that the people of Butte pay
unwarrantedly high prices can be
true,
