On the Death Of Mrs. Geo. Beffs.
Oh, Father, thou hast taken,
And with some good intent,
Minerva, from this world of care,
And unto Heaven sent.
Her mission there. we doubt not.
To supplicste with thee
To bind the enemy OF man
And set each sinner free.
When death had set his seal upon
Her brow, 30 pure and white,
She turned her eye to Heaven aud said
"Oh, George, it looks so bright
To think that you and shall meet
In that bright world above,
Where all is peace and happiness,
And every thought is love.
For God has beckoned me to come
To mansions bright and fair.
Oh, husband, You will live on earth
So you can meet me there.
This world is but world Of care
And / have always striven
To teach to youth the Word Of God.
And point the way to Heaven.
- Now, George, when l am gone above
Take down the Bible true,
Aid read the passages Of love
That God has sent to you,
"And it will lessen all your grief
Send JOY unto your heart,
Till you are called to Heaven
Where we never more shall part.
Come nearer, husband, nearer,
Bend down and catch my breath.
I'm coming, blessed Savior,
Christ Jesus this is DEATH"

school Tax,

To-day the voters of school Distric,
No., l are to say by their votes, wheth.
er or not our Public School shall con.
tinuc longer. 1t will be remembered
that few months ago our school direc
tors made an estimate of the cost of
building the extra room required,
and expense of teachers require /.
That estimate was ten mills on a dollar
of taxable property in the district.
This amount they Submitted to vote
of the district, and a small majority
voted against the tax. They then
submitted Eve mill tax for building
the house. This was carried by small
majority. \ small fund came from
the county for pay of teachers. The
school rooms were repaired and con-
structed and the school was set in mo-
ton upon the funds thus raised, and
has been continued for about two
months, but must soon be closed unless
our citizens provide the means to con-
tinue it through the Winter. The
trustees have now asked for three adj
ditional mills upon the dollar to keep
up the school We are informed that
the school is now prosperous under the
classified arrangement, the scholars well
pleased and making good improvement,
and it works a great injury to the i'm
provement Of the scholars to now sus-
pend the school aud set the children
ahoat in id'eness during the ensuing
Winter months. The school buildings
arc now in good condition and there is
where the children of the district should |
be congregated every day for instruc-
ton, and he who would impose a bar
rier to this is initiating against the
best interests Of this community.
Therefore we say vote the necessary
tax.

NeZ PerceS.

There has been placed in our hands
what purports to be printed list of the
number and names of the male Nez
Perces now living upon the reservation.
The number whose names are given are
distributed as follows: At KAMA l2S;
at North Fork "a. at Lapwai "a, at
Cottonwood %; at Clearwater 81, total
80. 1t also gives the names of 81
only who left the reservation and joined
the hostiles. The title page of the
pamphlet containing the list reads as
follows. "Names of the male Nez
Perez Indians living on the reservation.
Also names Of the Nez Perez Indians
who left the reservation and joined the
hostiles." TIE pamphlet does not claim
any authenticity. No name Of any
officer or citizen or person is attached
to give it even color of authority, thus
showing that its author had not conf
dence in his own bantling offspring.
10 make criticisms upon it would be
only striking in the dark. 1t proves
nothing in its own behalf and disproves
nothing which has heretofore been pub
lished as the census of the Indians.
1t merely prints list Of Nez Perez
names, which, for ought that appears
upon its face, may have been the pure
creation of some fancy brain while
studying the mysteries of the Nez
Perez language. When it's author
ship is established it will be ample
time to criticise its merits.
