school District No. 4.

To the Editor OF The Leader.
GRANITE CANON, Wyo., July 3.-SIR:
By law | am required to make a state
ment of the financial condition of school
district No. 4 being its treasurer. AT a
meeting of the school board I was elected
treasurer and as such l have received
from all sources 50, 040. Al, which | have
paid out in taking up warrants given
school teachers while there were no funds
in the treasury, drawing s per interest
and for paying teachers their monthly
dues and for incidental expenses amount.
ing in the aggregate to 81, 76S. 81, leaving
in the treasury $271. 90. The board has
five schools in operation three having va
cation at present and two now in opera
ton, paying teachers S45 per month.
At a late meeting of the board
a resolution was passed to pay
teachers $50 per month IN order to
secure teachers holding the best certi6-
Gates, and not be Disseminated against as
heretofore. The funds IN the treasury will
be insufficient to carry on the schools I'M
til funds can be collected and it will be
necessary for the board to issue warrants
until about December next. The district
is out of debt and in a healthy condition.
1t is deemed advisable by the board to
memorabilia the next legislature to so
change the law as to relieve the sparsely
settled districts from raising by levy a per
cent of funds for the support of the more
populous districts. Being reelected on
May 9th at the annual school meeting l
hope to he able to make a more explicit
report. 1t is urged by the board that the
people take more interest in school affairs
and attend the meetings.

Treasurer.

Memorial Dan IN oharlesto,en.

On Saturday last our citizens made their
annual tribute of flowers to the memory of
the heroic dead of the Confederate army re-
posing in our midst The congregation of
people from home and abroad was large,
and as we surveyed the multitude we noted
with sadness the absence of so many famil-
lar faces of veteran soldiers who had, here
tofore. been accustomed once a year to meet
for the purpose of honoring the memory of
departed comrades. There is nothing truer
than the statement that We all do fade as
leaf.
The procession was marshaled by Mr..
David Howell, assisted by Messrs. w. S.
Merchant and Isaac H. Strider, and was
composed Of the Charlestown Cornet Band,
the Jefferson Guards, the Citizens and In
dependent Fire Companies, and citizens and
visitors. As published in the programme
the procession first visited the graveyard
surrounding the NJ. E. Church, South, and
strewed with flowers the graves of COnfeder-
ates there: those of the p E. churchyard
were next decorated, and then the column
moved on to Edge Hill Cemetery, where a
stand had been erected and preparations
made for the ceremonies. Rev. DR.. Hop
kins, President of Lee Memorial Associa-
ton, called the assembly to order IA call
which was not as promptly or cordially res
ponded to as might have been desired or ex-
pected) and the exercises commenced with
Prayer, offered by Rev DR.. Gardner, fol-
lowed by beautiful and appropriate music
by choir organized for the occasion, under
the direction and leadership Of Madame
Ruhl. The speaker invited for the day,
Capt John j. Williams, was introduced by
Col. r. P. Chew, a comrade in arms with
graceful alusion to his patriotic devotion
to the cause of the Confederacy and his
brave and brilliant services in the late war
Capt Williams delivered with excellent ef-
feet carefully prepared address, elevated
in tone-leading the thoughts of his hear
ers from " sordid things to the higher con-
siderations of patriotism and duty, paving
eloquent tribute to the memory of the dead
and generously alluding to those who from
conviction of right fell fighting against us.
At the conclusion Of Capt Williams speech
the choir sang and Dr. Gardner pronounced
the Benediction The Cornet Band then
gave some suitable strains and the Jefferson
Guards fred salute of three rounds over
the soldiers graves, the choir then sang
" Cover them over with beautiful flowers
and the crowd dispersed to strew the flowers
which had been brought in great abund-
ance for the purpose
