All the difference between an army
under complete control and disor

mob like Peter the Hermit's crusadl
may have zeal, devotion, courage
but like that unfortunate attempt
no success can be gained and it is a.
the mercy OF a small but trainet

The plans and specifications for
the two new school houses have ar
rived from Stein & Reed. the st. Paul
architects, and the board OF educa-
ton will soon advertise for bids for
construction. 1t is not believed by
the board that there is money enough
available to buy the two sites, pay
the 81, 900 bonds now due, and build
and furnish two four-room buildings.
If the doubt is sustained by exact in
formation, it isprobable that each of
the two buildings will be constructed
only in part this season. The
plans call for four rooms, two story
sections extending in opposite d.
rections from the hall portion in the
centre. 1t is practicable to build the
hall division and one of the wings at
the present time, and complete the
other two-room wing at a later
time OF course a building will cost
slightly more when erected in divis-
ions, but the extra cost would not
exceed the value of the money that
might be tied up for a year or more
in the two rooms for which there
would be no present use for more
than two rooms in the 1st ward the
coming year, and as the meeting
that voted the bonds made a request
+ hat four-room buildings be built in
the 1st and 3rd wards, it would ap-
pear that it was desired that the
two buildings be Of the same capac-
Iity; therefore the board will attempt
to follow the sense of the meeting as
far as practicable. II a twO-room
building will meet the demand on
the West Side, such one will be
built. We believe that the motion in
regard to the buildings that passed
the meeting was lily considered, but
while it is not binding, the board
will, as far as possible, be guided by
it. Should the four-rOom building
ON the West Side befound necessary
however, and the condition Of the
finances and the public requirements
Ijoin In discouraging the construction
l OF as large O school house on the
| East Side the board would naturally
be compelled to accept the situation
and the public would undoubtedly
acquiese in this action taken.

Increased Assessment.

Assessor FOisy estimates that the
new assessment of real estate, as 1t
reaches the city equalizing board,
will be from 80 to so per cent higher
than two years ago. Almost every
tract has been increased some, and in
many cases the increase is over so
per cent. A large amount of new
property comes in for assessment as
lots instead of acre property this
year, and this tends to increase the
aggregate. The raise is none too
much, and the city board, it is hoped,
will still further advance the values.
While to get them disproportionate-
ly high would be an injusti to city
property owners, the advantage it
would give of a reduction in the tax
rate would be of great benefit when
negotiating for the establishment Of
new enterprises here, and q high as
sessed valuation would make bet
ter market for all bonds offered for
sale. A radical increase. in valua-
.tions sfl ould he made,a and the very!
slight increase in our share ofcounty
and state tax should not stand in
the way of a policy that has many
other valuable advantages.
Anyone can consider the school
bond sale. and draw their own con-
clusions. One firm offered to take
the $25.ooO bonds at 5H per cent for a
commission of $3.50, another offered
to take them at per cent and give
81 900 bonus. The board considered
the matter carefully and unanimous
ly accepted the former offer. No
school bonds were ever before sold
for less rate than per cent, and
it was very satisfactory to obtain a
reasonable bid for a lower rate of
interest. We consider the rate the
most economical in all respects.
There is no necessity for reply to
the reflections OF the disappointed
bidders upon the motives OF the
board. About a year ago the city
paid commission of $1,500 for
sale of $4,000 of bonds bear
ing the same rate, and now with
debts against the territory
a much larger issue was sold for one
half tine commission. If all public in
terests had as careful financial pro-
lection as the school district enjoys
there would be no ground for CON-
paint.

Garza's Following Will he Augmented
No Sign OF Him.
SAN ANTONIO, Texas Jan. 7.--Garza's fol-
lowers are now scattered through several
counties, but the revolutionary movement
is by no means checked. There is reason to
believe that if Cara succeeds in
avoiding arrest he will keep up
the present following and have the active
support of all the nnti-Diaz element in
northern Mexico, which will Join him at
once ON his advent in that country. Reports
from various points throughout the south
western parts say parties Of
Mexicans are equipping them-
selves with arms and horses and leaving
for the supposed rendezvous of the
ing along the border that Garza'a war is
yet in its infancy. The only official ad-
vices to-day we're from Col. Morris, at Fort
Mcintosh. who telesraphed Col. Martin ns
follows: 'Hnraie reports, under date of
Jan. 4, that he thinks the band is trying to
get together again after the last breakup.
He is at Salido, lex"
The expected tidings of Garza's capture
have not yet arrived. In fact. none of the
scouts who have returned considered that
there is any favorable sign giving rise to
the hope that they are on the track. No
doubt is expressed that Garza is somewhere
in the neighhorhood Of his father-in-law's
ranch. 1t is said Garza is not only suffering
from his old wound, but from the grip, and
that many of his followers have aggravated
cases of the malady. However, they do not

Stanley and his staff will 90 into the field,
but he expects the movement to be sup

Patterson Arrested on Another Charge
Coming Over To-day.
BUTTE, Jan. 7.-[special. james Il.
Patterson was arrested again to-day by
United States Furay, the charge this time
being for mutilating letter in the care of
the United States government 1t is un-
derstood that the reason for the arrest was
to make the bonds higher, as there had
been rumor that Patterson might leave
with only $1,000 to hold him. His bonds
in the second case were fixed at another
Thousand. Assistant United States At
tornev Mcdonald came over from Helena
this evening, and it was supposed the case
would be tried. Preliminary examination
was waived, however. as in the other case.
Judge Lippincott, attorney for Patterson,
said that bonds FOR $500 could be
furnished but not $1,000, and asked that
the amount be reduced to $500. This was
refused. Judge Lippincott then said Mrs.
Patterson is already prostrated and he
feared serious results if her husband we
confined in common cell. He asked that
Patterson for this might be remanded to
his custody and lie would become person
ally responsible for his appearance. This
was also refused. and the prisoner re-
manded to the custody of Marshal Furay.
The entire party will go over to Helena to-
morrow and argue before Judge knowles
in the evening on his proposition of reduc-
ing the bond.

may dean unequal and unreasonable. the
president has submitted to the attorney
general the question whether the law au-

attorney general has given an opinion that
the duties must attach and be collected
on and after that date by proclamation. A
future day cannot be named by
the president. Owing to this decision,
Secretary Blaine to-day sent notes to the
diplomatic representatives Of Austria

that March Is the president would issue

sugar, nolasses, coffee, tea and hides. The
