A SUCCESSFUL PoLIoY. The effects
Of the radical change in the manner
of doing business, inaugurated by
Messrs. Toklas e. Goldstein, is be-
coming more evident every day. A
large amount of money in the ag-
gregate has been kept at home, by
local consumers, while slowly but
surely the small dealers in the inter-
ior have been turning their attention
to Olympia as the base of supplies.
Commencing with small orders, they
have been SO pleased with a trial,
that larger ones followed, until it
was demonstrated that almost every
staple article could be bought here
rs cheap as in Portland, so iLfec-
tious was the example and experience
OF these gentlemen, and so general
the reduction of rates. The day of
high prices is past. The firm an
nounce their experiment to have
been a success and the intention to
it by still further en-
deavor to build up a trade which

MIDDLE-AGED MEN.
There are many at the age of thirty to

evacuation of the bladder, often accom-
panied by slight smarting or burning
sensation, and a weakening of the system
in manner the patient cannot account
for. On examining the urinary deposits
ropy sediment will often be found and
sometimes small particles ofalbumen will
appear, or the color will be of thin milk
ish hue, again changing to a dark and
torpid appearance. There are many men
who die of this difficulty ignorant of the
cause, which is the second stage of semin-
al weakness. DR.. 8. will guarantee per-
feet cure in all such cases, and a healthy
restoration of the genito-urinary organs.

The fact that several Portland
and Walla-walla capitalists have
taken up large tracts of valuable
farming lands in the vicinity OF the
mouth Of Snake river, has had the
effect to induce quite tidal wave of
emigration thitherward, and we hear

ity who have been threatened with
the fever. To all such, our advice
is, let we'll enough alone. a free

OPINION.

To determine the questions here
presented for decision, we mrst first
ascertaiped whose duty it is to order
repairs made; who superin.ends the
repairing; and how are they paid for.
The directors are the business
agents of the school district.
They have power and it is their
duty to rent, repair ard furnish
school-houses.- Sec. IS.
When the directors determine
that repairs are necessary, they
must also specify their nature
and extent. Having determined
that repairs are necessary, they must
instruct the Clerk how, and to what
extent repairs are to be made. The
Clerk then makes repairs as instruct
cd by the Directors. He keeps an
account Of expenses incurred by
him, which account is presented to
the Directors, for allowance against
the district school fund.-Sec. 43.
The Directors draw warrants on
the County Treasurer when there
are funds in his hands to the
credit of the district to pay Tor max
ing repairs. IS.
These warrants are paid by the
Treasurer when they are counter
signed by the district lerk.-Sec.
81, Sub decision, 3.
Warrants presented to the Clerk
for his signature, should be promptly
signed. The Clerk has 10 right to de-
termine whether the Directors acted
lawfully in issuing the warrant. He is
not made the judge to determine the
legality of their actions. He is the
Clerk of the Board of Directors.
(Sec. 4I,) and he signs the warrants
simply that he may known and keep
a record of the disposition made of
the school funds. This duty was
imposed upon him in order that there
might be check upon the Directors
and Treasurer, and iu order that the
people may always, By going TO the
records of the Clerk, know the
financial condition of the district.
Upon the facts stated the Clerk is
at fault. 1t was his duty to do as he
was ordered by the Directors, and he
should sign the warrant.

Who Di0 if?

The charge that the murder of the Shellenbach brothers was committed by Indians is backed by the statement that a boy belonging on d rancho some distance from the scene of the murder was carried off the day before and badly mistreated by persons who he says were Indians, and the boys hat was found the next day close to the bodies of the murdered men. An in quest was held over the dead men on Thursday, Sabino Otero acting as Cor oner, and the survivor of the attack, T. B. Merchant, was present. The latter says that the shots which killed the Shellenbachs were fired by parties concealed, and his own horse dashed away under a fire of about eight shots from the same hidden enemy. As he sped away he turned in the saddle and saw two Indians come from behind rocks to catch the horses of their vic tins. If these murderers were In dians, it will be interesting to find out where they belong; and it would seem that they might have been pretty easi- ly overtaken, whoever they were. The county owes it to itself to find out who has done this piece of deviltry, aside from the question of punishment.

About the Indians.

We have fresh rumors of Indian depredations southward, but nothing
 further concerning the reported exten
 slve pass business at San Carlos. Oul
 impression is that the Indians at San
 Carlos are all right and will remain SO
 Even admitting that passes were given
 10 i2OO last week, it is probable that
 HOO of these were women and chil. dren and that the passes were given tc
 enable the Indians to gather acorns
 etc. Again, an Indian often takes q pass without leaving the reservation
 which, it should be remembered is sixty miles wide by about 125 miles iong' A pass simply exempts the bearer from roll call on issue day and Is necessary to account for his absence from the Agency, although he may not at any time be outside of the res. ervation limits. Hence it will easily De understood that passes to 1900 In dians does not necessarily mean that any of them will go outside of the limits of the reserve, and also that l2oO Indians" does not mean 1900 warriors, but that probably over 90 per cent. were women and children. We have no desire to cover up any actual depredatiOns, yet at the same tune we appreciate how serious a mis- take 1t would be to create a false alarm concerning the great body of Apaches at San Carlos.
 ESkiminZin-former chief of that tribe and now a farmer on the San Pedro, just at the corner of the reser- vation-arrived in town last evening". and assures us that the Indians at San Carlos, as a body, are just as docile as they have been since 1875. If the depredations recently committed this side of the Sonora line are the work or Indians, they certainly come from that rowing band of renegades who have been wandering about Northern Sonora, Eastern Arizona and Western New Mexico during the last three years. We have written this article without any positive facts from San Carlos, but we believe that our views of the present condition of affairs here will prove correct in every par icular.

Another Victory n Utah.

The process of teaching our Nor
 mon fellOw-citizens of Utah that they
 are under the dominion of American
 law IS slow, and rather unpleasant to
 the unwilling pupils. One of the
 most salutary lessons, furnished
 through the school of the courts, has
 been lately impressed upon the minds of Brigham Young's executors. They
 had no sooner obtained possession of the estate of their dead leader than they began to exhibit perfect con- tempt for the court which installed them- First paying a large gratuity to the Church, that its anathemas might be stayed, they began, without a shadow of authority, to make them selves allowances far beyond the legal limits, and in this way used up $4O0,- 900 before they could be stopped. Some of the heirs had nerve enough to attack them, and the court, of its own compelled the delinquents to an accounting. They have made every excuse and divers threats, but JudgeI Foreman has held on firmly, and they had, at last accounts, only a few hours in which to pay into court the whole sum of nearly half million or 90 toI iail. The four executors are George 2. Cannon, Territorial Delegate; John Taylor, President of the Mormons i; Brigham Young, Jr., and Albert Car 'ingtOn; prominent men, all of them, md entitled to no sympathy in their dilemma. They simply tried to usel he cloak of their religious system to .over a vlle theft, and it is one of the better signs in Utah that they are thoroughly checkmated. Another vic Ory or two by the forces of the law will go far toward breaking down the ebelliOn which has existed in our leighbor Territory so many years.

Border Proqnost,cations.

This is the way that the efficient
 Washington Commissioner of the New
 York Herald gets up another dis
 turbance on the Mexican frontier:
 According to the tenor of advices
 received by officials in the War De
 partment from army officers and Oth-
 CTS on the Texas frontier, who have
 been closely observing the develop
 ment of matters in our sister republic, a formidable revolt against the Gov ernment of President Diaz is likely to manifest itself before the close of the year. It seems that the alleged un- patriotic policy of President Diaz in suffering repeated crossings of United States soldiers into Mexican territory, to pass without other protest than q mere formal one on paper. has en- 'abled the enemies of President DiaZ to organize public sentiment against him, and to establish a semi-political party with prOfessed anti-American policy as its platform. This party is ready to rebel against him at any hour, and several recent outbursts in Sonora, and still more recently in east ern Mexico, near the Rio Grande, when several of the insurgents were so summarily executed, are said to be but the beginning of more serious trouble and only a preliminary ex- preSsion of the popular feeling. The original order to Colonel Mackenzie to pursue Mexican marauders has never been rescinded. It is the belief. therefore, that the "Ante-Americans "I will, in their zeal to defy the United States, take advantage of the first chance to tempt Mackenzie across the border and give him a warm recep- tiOn. For the outcome of such an en- counter the War Department is under stood to be quietly making prepara. tiOns, fact which will doubtless help to explain the milk-and- water orders given to General Miles as to his treat ment of the Sioux on the northwest ern frontier. In other words, a revolt in Mexico against the administration Of President DiaZ means, should itI prove successful, would establish al war party in Mexico determined to fight the United States. Even if un. successful, eventually the uprising. however short-lived, could not but lead to conflicts more or less serious along the Rio Grande. For this emer- gency the War Department will not be found unprepared.
