Private advices from Washington indi-
cate that Dakota interests so far as di-
vison and admission are concerned will re-
cieve the regular slight allotted periodi-
cally the past four sessions. They are all
warn friends of Dakota, love our
people, and all that, but we are too in
ternally and ,confoundedly republican.
Delegate.elect Clifford appeared before the
committee on territories in behalf of the
reservation BILL and there seems strong
probability that this measure will pass.
It is not generally known, but is neverthe-
less true, that Delegate Raymond has not
yet showed his face in Washington. Why
this absence when the. admission and
reservation bills are the subject of action,
we cannot state, but the people would like
to know. The senators favoring the ad-
mission bill and the house members be-
friending the reservation issue were not
only surprised but indignant that Dakota S
represe ntative should become so conspic-
uously absent, particularly at this critical
time, and if solitary measure becomes
successful there will be no thanks to Del
egate Raymond for the elimination. Del
egate-elect Clifford is the only Dakota man
at Washington, excepting representative
of the Pierre Press. .--. .~

TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS.
A short Talk with Those I'm Arrears
Read and Reject.

y
Those who are old readers of the AD-.
yocATE, subscribers who have been re-
ceiving the paper the past several years,
will bear us out in the statement that a
superAuity of dunning circulars have been
conspicuous by. their absence. Compar.
ing favorably to the absence Of flush times
we might mention the rather backward
condition of the usual fall settlement by
some Of our readers. Newspapers Offices
are the first to suffer from period of de-
preston, and in this case the result is no
exception to the rule. We therefore call
upon the readers of the ADVOCATE, who
know themselves indebted to the Office,
to call and at least make some payment.
Call or write and exhibit spirit Of sym
pathy, at least, for the printer
Subscribers desiring to secure some
eastern publications will find our list larg-
er and more advantageous than hereto
fore. We will make club rate on any
periodical of national importance, and will
give the rate on application.
We will furnish the ADVOCATE and
the Chicago Weekly News one year for
1926. Since its enlargement we have
been obliged to place the rate as above,
making it the best rate ever given our
subscribers. The News has recently
doubled in size. 1t is now a large, eight
page, sixty-four column paper. Its price
is one dollar, and it fairly claims the dis
tinction of being the largest dollar week
ly in America. Its enlargement has
enabled its managers to very materially
add to its merit and well-established pop
ularity. It's excellent news service; its
vigorous editorial; its stories by the best
American and English authors and all the
favorite old features are fully maintained,
while new departments, particularly in
the way of agricultural and home af-
fairs, very greatly add to its worth as a
complete family paper. Many Of our
readers have taken the News during the
past year; many more should take it the
coming year. Our special clubbing ar
rangement enables us to bring it within
the reach of all.
While not desiring to push the collec-
ton of accounts on those unable to liqui-
date there are others who should make a
move in payment of their accounts.
These we shall expect to hear from, and
request general settlement before Janu-
ary 1. Will those who are in arrears
please take note.

thority for the statement that Judge Gift

vision, and that he felt inclined to the

formed. In behalf of Judge Clifford, who
is now at Washington, we will state that

mission as a whole, representing as he

John 3. Alden's Literary Revo luton,

noise in the world as thr' e or four years

the public, is really making more substan-

able. item is the improved quality Of the
books issued. These are but representa-
tive Of an immense list of standard works,
ranging in price from two cents to nearly
$50, which are set forth in a descrip-
tive. catalogue Of 100 pages, and WHICH is
sent free to every applicant. 1t certainly
is worth the cost Of postal card to the

The Work Of the Lincoln County
Teachers and How 1t is Appreciat-
ed.
Who's been to visit our shools lately?
Well, good many have, and they found
them full, orderly, we'll organized and
busy. The primary department under
Miss Miller and Mrs. Russell constitute
two busy companies of about ITO girls,
boys AMI babies The little faces look as
bright and interested as any teacher could
wish, and never had children more worthy
instructors In the grammar and high
school departments under Principal Gates
and Rev. Mr.. Kingsbury, eighty orninety
lads and lassies are putting in their best
strokes, speaking latter the manner of
men, in which work they receive every
encouragement and proper assistance from
their instructors.
Everything in and about the school
speaks of good management, arrangement
and discipline. In the movement Of class
es, drill at recitation, work atdesks, pass
ing in and out at intermissions, and use
of the grounds-there is unmistakable
evidence of plan, energy, and leadership.
With such school board, such teaching
force, such general conyeniences and such
children, Canton is in fair way to estab
lish territorial reputation for its educa-
tional status
Let the people visit the schools freely,
and thus manifest their lively interest in
the good work so we'll begun.
THE ASSOCIATION.
The Canton Educational Association
meets in the high school room Of the city
school building at O'Clock P. NJ, Satur-
day, December 90. The programme will
be as follows:
Paper, discipline-Principal Gates.
Paper, music-Mr. Jas. Davidson.
Paper, cause and results of the revolu-
tionary war-Wilis Dean.
Paper, our American elections-E. G..
Rea.
Paper, our American lections-Frank
Huetson.
Paper, biography Of Bryant-Nliss Rog-
erS.
Selected reading from Bryant, Miss
Nash.
Essay-Miss A. NJ. Kennedy.
Essay-Miss Burcholder.
From the above list of subjects and
names it is evident that the meeting will
be worth attending not only by teachers
and members of the higher grades in
school, but also by those of our town who
are interested in education and literary
research
He is teacher of more than ordinary
conservation who will give himself funqual-
ifiedly to his profession when patrons and
Others who must be interested in the ed
ucation of the masses manifest no interest
in school or teachers work Let the
towrsfolk remember the above program
and the time for fullflment, and attend
the meeting to encourage the general work
of the day. We can't get along edrca-
tionally without these meetings of teach
ers, and Canton must show itself in inter-
est with every endeavor to better schools
and methods and teachers.
Let those on the program from month
to month have the prospect ofa interest
ed, appreciative hopeful audience, to
stimulate them in the preparation for the
session
Again we say go, and further the work
by your presence, at least.
