Ing good work for the children of Abbeville
county. Through their efforts 800 additional

about chiefly through the efforts of Auditor

School Commissioner Cowan, who has in the
past given us more schools and longer terms
than has ever before been given to the chill.
dren The effort of our faithful officers to en-
large the school fund by catching the tax
dodgers is commendable and should be appre-
ciated by the people. In the past they have
not only been polite and courteous in their OF.
fees, but have done their official duty with
fairness ana impartiality. This effort in be-
half of the children is only one OF their COM

CARD OF THANKS.
Act of Kindness on the Part OF SchOl.
ars for their Teachers.

Editor Press and Banner:
Dear Sr:-On last Friday, June 10, Miss
Emma Perrin and closed the school we had
conducted for the past session.
The fact that we were Severing for good our
relation as teachers to the scholars caused q
deep feeling Of sadness.
A little time after reaching home we were
surprised by the appearante of u beautiful
table and chair, accompanied by notes which
presented these things to us with expressions
Of tender feeling. The articles themselves
were intrlnsically of value but to US the
words which came with them were of more
consequence. showing as they did such
pleasant remembrance. On reading them
our feelings were OF mingled pride and regret;
of pride because this act showed such kind
feelings after being connected with us as pu-
pills for several years; and OF regret, that this
connection was severed.
take this method OF thanking these young
friends for their act, both for Miss Emma and
for myself: and to express the wish that they
may ever enjoy the Kindness and care they
so well deserve. Very truly yours,
J. w. Thomson.

County Attorney Cole received from
the county treasurer April 80 the delin-

to April l, 1891, and is now taking
initiatOry steps toward collecting the
same by proceedings in the superior
court. According to a recent opinion
of Attorney General Jones if the prop
erty is not sold by November l the
county's lien will no longer be in force.
The law requires that suit must be
brought against each individual prop
erty owner and judgment obtained.
There are in the vicinity of 800 owners
of property included in the delinquent
roll. On the tax of '9l the Delinquent
cles amount to S43,lO The back
taxes amount to nearly $4,000. Judg-

Judge Maxwell returned yesterday
from the Ruby creek mining distric t
in the southeastern corner of this coun-
ty. The trail now being built north
ward from the Skagit river not being
completed he went via Fort Hope, Brit
ish Columbia, riding southward eighty
miles on horseback from there over "a
trail the American portion of which he
says is holy terror and 10y all odds the
toughest he ever saw in ali the years he
has Travelled among the mountains of
the northwest. The discOmtOrts OF the
rough journey were intensified by the
bloodtnirsty raids OF swarms of mann
moth mosquitoes that are the terror of
the forest and the bottom lands of the
Fraser.
The judge has mining interests at
Ruby in company with J. IL. McMil-
Ian, of Skaglt county, and Francis
Cawley, who has large stock ranch
on the Similkameen trail in British
Columbia. 1t was his first trip To the
district and he seems highly pleased
with the mining prospects. He states
tina there are six or eight companies
now operating there and about one
hundred men at work in the district.
1t Is placer camp and the gold is
coarse. The difficulty of access has
greatly retarded development, but this
will be partially overcome by the new
trial from the Skagit, which will be
very much shorter and easier than the
Fort Hope route.
