Cascade community notes and upcoming Trail license meeting
In Cascade and nearby areas residents share local updates from Grand Forks politics to a charity drive for Grandma Southam. The Cascade Board of License Commissioners will meet in Trail next Friday to review four license applications. The Republic Pioneer reports mayoral candidates paid about $3,000 each, with voting outcomes discussed as high stakes in the Kettle River region. Community philanthropy rises as Cascade citizens generously support Grandma Southam after her home fire. The Republic mine orders 40 carloads of cyanide plant machinery from major U.S. cities, while the C P R secures the full transport contract against other transcontinental lines. Mrs. W M Wolverton recovers slowly after a week of illness, with Mr. Wolverton visiting from Summit City. Mr. Wm Forrest of Gladstone visits town. R Darrow and Miss Darrow host a dinner and cards in his honor with guests including Mr. Angus Cameron and Miss Kate Cameron. Ernest Bunting leaves Cascade’s B M & M Syndicate retail job for Greenwood to join his father’s lumber business in that city. The Presbyterian church notes a social on Feb 8 in Townsite Co building with admission prices for adults, children, and family tickets, and a planned engaging program.
