THAT BINDER AGAIN.

''Some folks" has finally got testi'
monial from this side of Tennessee.
Some parties went out from town to
see the elephant" and how he worked
land probably at 'soms folks expense)
a I'd would it not have been unkind to
refuse to give him a nice testimonial.
"Some folks" says 'many old maids in
the country, and many old bachelors
have COMPRISING arms" and SO
has "some folks" which he seems TO
have made use of, without them he
would have been a failure. Again
''some folks" says COMPRISING is dan
gerous, probably he has been two han
dy with his COMPRISING arm. Read
tho testimonials below aud compare
them with that one he got.

THE PROPOSED NEW SCHOOL
HOUSE.

Much has been said pro and con in
relation to Lewistons building q new
scho house and respecting the charac-
ter of the house that should be built.
The whole question has been in the
hands Of the school board for several
months, and that board in connection
with the city council have had under
consideration long time the question,
in relation to the kind of u house that
should be built. The TELLER has new
er interfered in this matter, nor has
its editor, although We have been &C.
cused of so doing. The question has
nov eliminated in something tangible,
and the decision has been made and
sanctioned by the board and council,
that three story wooden building
would be the best under the circum-
stances, and to this end proposals have
been solicited from builders, and bids
offered, and tho bid Of Hale and Coop
er has been accepted at 80, 400, and
the contract signed. The committee
secure The money by issuing the bonds
of the district for $1,000. The bull
ding is to be erected on the school
house lot in front of the present school
house, and have q frontage of " feet
on E street. No other building will be
within 81 feet of it on the west, nor
within Al feet on the east, and no
where north and south within the lin
it's Of the school grounds. This dist
ance will be a protection from fires
communicated from other buildings.
The building is to he finished in mod
ern style a ID convenience, and to be
Of good material, and substantial in cv-
cry particular. as well as suitably en-
bellished to become ~ ornament to the
city. The whole to be upon a good
stone foundation, well laid in cement.
We are told BY the committee tina.
many have urged . brick building to
cost about 10000. The committee
we're unable to secure building of suf-
fcient size to he built Of brick for less
than from $4,000 to $4,000, il
plainly built without granite thrcsh-
holds window lis and caps, and then it
would be no more = FIRE proof build
ing than would one of wood. Again
they found it impossible to contract
for the construction Of proper brick
building in time to meet the demands
of the district for more extensive
school room. These with other Diff
culties, determined the action of the
committee to contract for wooden
Guiding. We have always been 10
favor Of the brick building, but as the
board of education and the common
council having considered the matte,
more thoroughly than we, havs deter
mined otherwise We are not disposed
to'growl and cavil at what they have
done, nor are we prepared to say that
their action was not wise and expedi
ent, under the circumstances surround
ing the situation, and we have
reason to believe that they have acted
With honesty and in good faith for the
interests Of the district. They would

Lost etrayed or Stolen.

One Mrs. Camphausen, a female

made her appearance here few weeks
ago for the purpose Of making provis-
ion for carrying the mails between this
place and Dayton and Mt. Idaho from

ton mail is being carried but behind

the Mt. Idaho is not carried at all save
an occasional package forwarded by
some private PERSON in whose care the
postmaster has confidence that proper
delivery will be made. Efforts haye
been made to obtain authority for the
postmaster to temporarily have the
service performed. But such authori.
ty cannot Be obtained at price that
will pay the first cost of the service.
July Is nearly ended and Mrs. Camp.
hansen has absconded and left no pro-
visions for carrying the mails on this
route. Whether she is entirely lost OF
only temporarily strayed, or has been
captured and stolen by some Of the
male contractors who had use for her
