Territorial Committeeman George
-Sexton announces that he has made
r.o appointments of divisional com
mitteemen as yet, and will not until
he is certain the men named by him
are rock-ribbed Stalwarts with no
taint of LaFollette in their brain.
Unless the tangle is straightened
out in the near future many of the
old line Republicans in this section
have announced their intention of
voting for democratic candidates this
fall, rather than support men wh(
are slightly off color in politics.

' I WORK ON REVETMENT
PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
(Nome Nugget).
The work on the revetment in
j Snake River Harbor was under way
the first of last week and progress
| ing rapidly until the work had to
! bo temporarily suspended on account
i of the storm. The piling have all
been driven and the work of driving
i the revetment on the face was web
j under way when it became too rough
to work. As soon as the weather
quiets down a little the work will be
rushed thru to completion and the
erection of the freight shed for th<*
Municipal Wharf will be commenc
j ed.
Harold Lloyd’s first big starring
j feature, “Grandma’s Boy,” shown at
the Liberty Theater last night, and
which will repeat tonight, proved to
be all and more than the advertise
ment claimed. It was far better
than Lloyd's famous “Dr. Jack” that
pas ed through here some time ago.
The advertisement appropriately said
lit was a “scream,” for the noise in
the theater last night was a scream
from start to finish.
There's nothing batter than a good
laugh and those who saw this pic
ture sure slept well last night.
The people didn’t know just how
good it was or there would have been
a b:gger crowd.
