An exchange brings us this item Of
news which may be worth reading:
"The school teachers of Banks town
ship may possibly go out on strike.
They had a meeting on Saturday at
Jeanesville, and made a demand for
more wages. They want 5lU month
added to their pay and that demand
will be made right away. The state
appropriation amounts to considerable
and they think they are entitled to
more wages. At any rate committee
will confer with the school board to
see what can be done in the matter,
The board will meet on the 9th OF
September and take up the matter and
discuss it,"

For some time past there has been
considerable dissatisfaction among the
employees of Evans q Co., at Beaver
Meadow, and on Friday evening meet
ing Of the employees was held The dis.
satisfaction seems to be due to the
semi-monthly pay law, says the Halle
ton Standard. The company has been
respecting the law ever since it has
been passed, until this month when
the men were notified that the system
would be discontinued. This some.
what angered the men and they ap.
pointed committee to wait upon Mr.
Evans and ask him to return to the
semi-monthly pay.
Whether the demands of the men
will be acceeded to by the company re.
mains to be seen. But one thing is
evident that, unless they do, there will
probably be strike.

Bad For The Governor.

THE News said last week that the
Governors denomination depended
largely on a settlement Of the mining
troubles in Shoshone county. Without
a settlement by him while there he
couldn't be renominated. He failed TO
make that settlement, returned home
and issued his famous proclamation
against the miners as they construed it
and these are some of the resolutions
adopted at the town of Gem, Shoshone
county, by way of retaliation:
RESOLVED, That we, the citizens of
Gem, have been greatly disappointed
and consider that we have been gross
ly insulted by the action of the gov.
ernor of our state in visiting Ceur d.
Alene country for the purpose Of in.

RESOLVED, that we, the citizens, dc
hereby denounce the actions of the
governor and his proclamation as be.
ing unjust and uncalled for in every
way, shape and form, and also thai
We will use every effort In our power
at the coming election to elect gov
