Teachers Examination.

At the teachers examination
last week held by Judge CARRIER,
certificates We're granted to the fol-
lowing persons:
d. w. Story, End grade.
Daniel Worth, 2nd grade.
John c. Gelbach, 2nd grade.
Mary Maxey, Bird grade.
The examination was postponed
until Friday in order to give Mr..
and Mrs. Perkins, of Oakesdale,
Wash, who are teaching the pub
lie school at Denver, an oprortuni-
ty to secure their certificates. As
they failed to appear the Judge
will enforce the law and refuse to
allow them any money for their
services. The law is very plain on
this matter, and it is well that
trustees should understand it.

UiH Not CaU an Extra Session.
GRkNGEvILLE. IDAHO.
FRIDAY, i: NOVEMBER 10, 1853

The following letter from Gov.
Mcconnell arrived day too late
for publication last week. 1t is in
reply to one written by the +. p.
editor advising against calling an
extra session of the legislature to
postpone the time fer payment of
taxes. The text of our argument
was that we were suffering from
conditions entailcd by national
legislation, and that State legisla-
ton was poworless to afford per-
manent relief; that if the extra
session was had the utmost it could
do would be to postpone the pay
ment of taxes for year, and that
in all probability the people would
be III no better condition next year,
and therefore if they can't pay
their taxes this year they certainly
won't be able to pay two years
taxes next year. Here is the gov
ernor's reply;
BOISE Cry, Idaho, Oct. 30, '93.
FRIEND PARKER Il have your
letter of 26, and think your views
relating to a special session are
correct. The Boise Sentinel and
some other papers in the State,
who have more in view the advanc-
ment of the political parties to
which they belong than the inter
csts of the people they should rep
resent, have been urging me to call
for an extra session, thinking
thereby to get me and through me
the republican party into difficulty.
If the Populists, with their allies
in your own party, could have one
more chance it is hard to tell what
they would attempt to do. One
thing / am convinced of, and that
is that they would not try to do
the country any good. l do not
believe for a moment that the dem
ocratic party endorses the conduct
of the last session, nor do / believe
they will ever endorse again the
few democrats who stood in with
the Populists and made it possible
to prevent the passage of laws that
were so greatly needed. There
were a number of very good men
in the democratic ranks in the
senate but there were enough dead
beats to join with the Populists
and prevent any legislation in the
interest Of the State. The same
men would have to come together
again i'll an extra session and no
good could arise from such a source.
In fact, | agree with you, that it
is doubtful if any good is ever de-
rived from an extra session.
Very respectfully yours,
WIN. j. MCCoNNELL,
Governor.

Following is the property assess
ed by Mr.. Wann this year in the
Seven Devils region. Washington
county has also assessed the same,
but the owners have announced
their determination to pay taxes in
Idaho county, where they natural
~ belong. The survey of the
boundary line between the two
counties last year left the matter
so plain that there is no longer the
possibility or shadow of doubt
that the Seven Devils country is,
every acre of it, in Idaho county {;
and our county officials are bound
to assert our rights to our own ter
ritory which the law gives us. AS
will be seen, the property assessed
is all patented mining claims.
