LETTER FROM THE wEIsER.
WE1sER BRIDGE, October 9, 1s7

WEISER BRIDGE, october y, 1918.
Ed. WoRLD:-As | failed to see my
last letter in the columns of the WORLD,
| have come to the conclusion that il
was lost or misplaced; but as it is
never too late to do good, | will try
again. A little is better than none.
A party Of six men, of which | was
member, went out to the head wa
ters of Monroe creek, about a week
ago, and killed some fine deer As
we were not able TO pack them In that
evening, we hung our vests up to
keep wild varmints off, that we might
find our venison all right on the next
morning. When morning arrived two
of the boys mounted their horses, and
taking but one gun, went to bring in
the game and clothing that was LETT.
When near the deer they heard some
one halloo or cattle believing, they
did not know which, and paid but lit
tie attention to it. They had proceed
ed but short distance farther when
they saw fine buck Indian three or
four hundred yards distant He
dropped his blanket and raised his
gun, but did not fire One Of the boys
fired at him, when he dropped behind
the ridge. The hunters thinking that
"He who fights and runs away lives
to fight another day." beat a hasty re-
treat for camp. leaving the vests and
deer for the reds to appropriate TO
their own use.
There are Indians sknlking about
in every direction, and it is not safe
to be out in tie hills alone. \ person
is liable to come in contact with the
reds at any time.
Three companies Of soldiers passed
here a short time ago on taeir way TO
WalIa Walla, but they arc not hunt
ing Indians and don't wish 10 see any.
We have had fine shower Of rain
which laid the dust. The nights are
cold aud frosty. with appcarances of

In the case of the investigation OF
the treatment of patients at the Couh-
ty Hospital the Board finds from the
evidence of Drs. Sheffert and Dans-
man, supplied by the statements OF
Geo. Clinton, the patient whom 1t wa
claimed has been neglected, that the
treatment of Dir. Berger was skillful
and judicious, and in accordance with
the rules of practice adopted ! y ply
sicians generally; that the patient OF
his own volition took the case ont OF
DR.. Berger's hands and placed himself
under the care Of another physician;
that ne did so without notification to
DR.. Berger, and that the latter, acting
under the advice of members OF this
Board. and in accordance with the
rules of practice in such cases, very
properly refused to visit the patient
afterward. We further fail TO find, in
any IF the evidence brought forward,
any matter that would tend to make
us imagine that DR.. Berger has neg
lected any county patient under his
charge, and we therefore fully and en-
tirely exonerate him from the charge
brought against him.
Ordered that the Board do now adj
iourn until 8 A NJ tomorrow.

were for the prosecution. Many re-

that OCCASION as it was regarded as
one Of the best ever made in this coun-

ending October 7th, A. d. 1878:
The Dallas weekly herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1885, 1878-03-09

Section twenty niue of the school
law reads As follows:
Parents and guardians, or next
friend, of any minor on or afie- the
first Monday of January aud ap Ia the
beginning OF the next sen0iast tic year,
in order to avail themselves of the
benefits of the available school fund
for their county for the scholastic year,
beginDiug the next succeeding sep
tembeT, may organize themselves into
school ,ommuDlties, embracing such
population rs may agree to sv all them
selves OF the benefits of the available
public free school fund, on the follow
ing terms, viz: They shall make out
n list to oe signed ia person by such
parents and guardians rs desire TO
avail themselves of the available
school fund which list shall include
the names and ages of children to be
instructed, who may be within the
scholastic age, on the first day of the
next Septem Der, which names of chill
dren shall be inside in alphabetical
order, which list shall also include all
minors within scholastic age In said
com munity, who have no guardian !;
-sid list, together with an application
10 the county Judge, stating that they
desire, in good faith, to organize a
school Rt such place as they m ~ desig-
nate, shall be riled with the county
judge; said application shall also show
the capacity Of the school houses, and
school conveniences, II any, etc.
There are some things In this sec
ton that need to be understood
and carried out by patrons OF
schools. First-School committees
may apply Tor organization up
10 the beginning of septem Der
The law does not provide for the filing
of applications after the last men,
toned date, snd parties must hand
their petitions To the county superin-
tendent not later than Septein Der |, of
each year. II the papers are not pre-
scented then they will be entirely is-
uored, and the applicants will fall TO
get an appointment which can easily
be secured by complying with the law
Secobdly-There are no school dis
tricts. They are entirely abolished.
Neighborhoods constitute themselves
into school communities, aud they
may embrace an area as large as the
parents OF guardians see proper.
Thirdly-These applications must be
signed in person by the parents or
guardians. Last year, we learn that
there was great deal OF trouble In
this particular. Let every parent or
guardian sign his own name, and If he
does not, hold the man res ponsibi
who assumes to use his signature.
Fnurthiy Arrange the names of the
children within scholastic axe alpha
betically, and De sure TO give the cor
rect age on the first day of next Sep-
tember. Parties are likely to compro-
M Sc their reputation II the age of
their children or wRrds appear GU the
scholastic report to be one thing and
on the application to be different.
These are essential aud should be
strictly persued.
