LATEsT-As TO MARY's LAMB.

LATEST-AS TO MARY'S LAMB.
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was black as ink,
And Mary had dyspepsia so
She Couldn't sleep wink.
She suffered both by night and day,
With pains and aches, until her
Kind friends suggested she should take
P. DAyIss PAIN KILLER.
1t quickly turned dyspepsia out
And made her as good as new,
And just the way that Mary did,
Should all dyspeptics do.

That passed without murmur. Any
other county, imagine, and the
movement would have been looked
upon as highway robbery. 1t is pitt
full, the penurv and false ideas of
economy practised by some people.
The Governors salary is not so
munihcent that he can afford extra
help and pay them out of his own sal
airy; but time regulates all things, and
suppose it will work change in
certain portions Of Idaho ere Gabriel
blows the final trump.
Quite number Of bills were intro
duccd that would have been beneficial
to Nturas had they passed. Among
them | remember one BY Wilson, re-
pealing the usurv law; another re-
pealing the present rate of poll tax,
which passed the house at late day,
but never came up in the Council. 1t
was strongly opposed by what is
known as the moss back element in
this section.
A mild little bill by Wilson, of Ada,
anncxing 5000 square miles of AItu-
ras to this county, was killcd-a very
wise move. Wilson's bill, forming a
new county, was acted upon SO late
that it failed to meet with the Gov
errors approval.
"A bill providing for the revision of
the laws was one Of the most impor-
tant of the session; but it was SO
butchered by members wanting
friends on the commission that the
Governor vetoed it.
The action of Governor Neil in his
vetocs was generally commended, and
he was sustained in all cases except
one.
The members from Alturas made
many friends here, and did crcdi, not
onl v to themselves but to the county
they represented.
Further comment is easy, but UNI
necessary. The mail goes in few
momcnts--so, farewell
Yours, for Alturas,

OUR SCHOOL FUND.
1t May Suffice to Establish Graded
School and Support Three Teachers.

The Legislature has passed an act
making the license for saloons $500
yearly, payable in advance. Sheriff
Furey has not yet recelved instructions
in the matter, nor blanks, and is yet
granting licenses at the old rate of
5000 per annum, payable quarterly.
Studhorse poker, faro and other
games are taxed $50 per quarter, pay
able in advance. The revenue de-
rived by the county from licenses for
gambling is all paid into the school
fund; also, all fines collected by JUS
tees and District and Probate Judges.
The revenue from the above, with the
four.mill tax to be assessed, will pro-
vide ample funds for the support of a
graded school III HALEY.
The meeting called for March l, to
vote special tax for continuing the
spring term of the public school,
should be attended by all taxpayers.
1t is proposed to raise $1,000 with
which to engage a man teacher for the
remainder of the present term and to
have summer term under lady
principal, with two assistants. The
information desired by many citizens
regarding the lack of funds will also
be given at the meeting.
