Nezperce Residents Seek County Smallpox Bill Test
Nezperce residents plan to sue the county to test disallowed smallpox bills after the council authorized a test case. The combined action includes city and individual claims totaling about $800 and follows the county board’s rejection of the bills. Grain harvest begins on the prairie with oats yielding 66 to 100 bushels per acre on several fields. A new combined harvester by Frank Arment may boost next season orders. The Kooskia tramway leases its warehouse to Kettenbach but will operate the tramway. Public works projects include canyon road cross-sectioning and upcoming bid lettings. The library offer was rejected due to lack of levy ability. Public schools open September 14 with four teachers and ~250 pupils.

Northern Pacific Plans Freight Depot and Passenger Waiting Rooms
The Northern Pacific announces terminal improvements at the local rail yard: a new freight depot north of the roundhouse side track and a second waiting room for passengers. The old depot space becomes baggage handling, with separate ladies and gentlemen waiting areas. Freight service will shift to Clearwater country after the State depot and round house are completed, moving the division from Pullman to Moscow and routing trains from there to Stites. A yard engine will haul freight to Potlatch Junction, assist at Kendrick, and support Culdesac branch work.
