A. and Herman Churchill, of jußt northwest of town, John Hordeman, who lives in the northwest part of town, Carey Crisler, of near Parr, and Wm. Ridenour, of Kniman. Their tickets will take them to Btitee, Idaho, and they will probably locate in that state, although they may cross the line into Washington.
