A dispatch from Kez Peroe says a report is again prominent here that Kez Perce is to get a railroad and ao tivities in the way of real estate pur chases and inquiries relative to tbe same tbe past few days are accredited to "inside" knowledge that plans bave already been completed for sup plying this seotion with transportation tbrongh a branch line that will leave tbe Cnldesao-Grongeville road at a point near Ho. Whether tbe real estate deals are being made in connection with tbe purchase for grounds for depot and yard facilities or whether for specula tion reports do not disclose. Well known Nez Perce men are interested iu tbe deals and are directing same. Tbe development is believed to be the outgrowth of a move made here two months ago, when steps were taken to organize a company to build tbe branch line. It was stated at that time that tbe Northern Pacific was baok of tbe move. Now it is rumored at both the Northern Paciflo and O. B. &. N. are in the deal and that the branob will be built in connection with tbe goneral joint construction agreement under wbiob tbe roads are working in this field. This report is to tbe effect that a branob will also be built to tbe Craig mountain section. Following tbe news that tbe Kerr Uiflord company bad purchased the Ketteuaoh grain company, repott is in oironlation here that Balfour-Guthrie, the big importing firm, is negotiating for tbe purobase of the Vollmer-Clear-water company's grain business in this field.

Driven to diastiq action by lack of work, an army of a thousand Swedes are preparing to pull up stakes in Massachusetts and go to Idaho and es tablisb a colony Jhere, says a Lewiston Tribune dispatoB. '.. They are Inydsti gating a lobation near Lewistonaud tbe present intention' of tbeir leaders is to settle there and till the soil. Rev. C. A.Larsen of Gardner, Mass., is heading thet, movement He is organizing bis country people wbo ate out of work on account of tbe low ebb of industry in this state, and is mapping out tbe course they will pur sue. He said last night: "This colonization movemeut has beeu brought about by tbe unsatisfac tory conditions of the eastern labor market. Our people are harder bit than any other and something must be done. I have learned tbrongh a western friend ot an excellent spot near Lewiston, Idaho, where good laud can be secured at a reasonable price. Although many of our band are skill ed workmen and can command good wages, they have taken up the idea of getting back to tbe soil and are glad to journey to tbe west. I cannot say definitely tonight whether we cau make arrangements for a thousand bomeseekera at Lewiston, but it is likely that will be tbe looatiou of our colony."

Prairie City Miner. Mrs. Frank W. Dodson, a widow, known throughout Iowa as tbe shrewd est rolitioian in tbe entire state, is muLingfor another term as county recorder of Polk county upon her re cord as a smasher of jary tampering.
