School Onens. /.

School commenced this week, un-
der favorable circumstances, with
an enrolment of forty-three.
The teachers earnestly desire to
have patrons visit the same often,
not only that a personal acquaint-
ance between them and the teachers
may be established, but to familiar
ize themselves with the methods of
teaching being pursued.
1t has frequently been said, not
unjustly methinks, that there is no
branch of business as responsible as
the instruction Of Children
though under the supervision
of as trusted agents as the school
board, to which the proprietors do
not at sometime, give their person
al attention, ifonly for short space
of time.
The experience of many teachers
is, that most of the patrons are un-
known to them, even at sight, un-
less called upon in their homes
where too frequently prejudices
arise against the teacher, through
the fallible judgement Of a pupil.
Cooperation of patrons and
teacher can but, in majority of
cases, result in the advancement of
the pupil, both intellectually ana
morally, and how can that be
more effectually accomplished,
than by the patrons visiting the
school as often as once month,
during the school year.

VIII naruly Dear that Interpretation.
My attack on Gov. Mcconnell was
ON account of one of his official
acts, in vetoing the school of science
bill, passed by our last legislature.
| did attack that act as unjust and
injurious to Kootenai county and
warned the people that if he were
again elected, we had no assurance
that he would not again veto it if
the next legislature should be favor
able to this county.
/ do not believe that any other
delegate to the county convention
considered my remarks ''scurrilous"
or out of place at the time, which
only emphasizes the fact that Mr..
Smith is naturally not fit repre-
sentative of an enlightened com
munity.
The act of Mr.. Smith and other
delegates from Kootenai county in
voting to give Latah the Joint SEN
ator has placed us without repre-
sentation in the state senate, for we
expect to elect Mr.. Brown, the NOM
inee from Latah. Mr.. Brown SAYS:
"lt go to Boise, there are two
measures | am going to work for
and | will never let up until | get
them through" One of these is the
School of Science which he says be-
longs to the state university at
Moscow. Now how will MIR. Smith
Justify himself to his district" if
by his act Kootenai county looses
the School of Science which so Just
ly belongs to her.
| did not say that Mr.. Smith of
tered to vote the way | wished if
| would pay his transportation. |
did say that Mr.. Henry lnade that
proposition to me for himself and
Mr.. Smith, and in the presence and
hearing of Mr.. Smith, and he, Smith,
did not in his honest indignation
"spurn the offer" Mr.. Henry will
not deny this fact.
Now, Mr.. Smith, a word with
you. Did you not vote against the
resolution passed at the county
at the state convention
at Boise City? Did you not vote to
give the joint senator to Latah?
Did you not receive money in Boise
City to buy your ticket home and
have $40 left? / do not expect you
to deny the first two questions, as
they are a matter of record and
you cannot go back on the record.
If you deny the third | will prove
you a liar by your boon companion,
Mr.. Henry, with proof enough to
back it from respectable parties in
the Latah delegation. And, furth-
er, MI. Smith, / am pleased to
know that your opinion of my fit
ness for office is not shared by
many prominent men, which only
shows how great minds will some
times differ on very important
subject.
Mr.. smith, you belong to large,
a very large and respectable family.
Many of the name have held prom
inent positions in literature, science,
arts, and the political history of
our country, and you are the first
one to my knowledge who has dis
graced the honorable name. Your
of "a boiled carrot" and
Blacktail Mountain can never efface
from the memory Of your constitu-
ents the disgraceful acts perpetra-
ted by you on a confiding public.

Smith of Hope, in a letter to the
Rathdr um Post of date Aug. 80.
refers to an article in your issue of
Aug. 25th where | was given as au-
thorty for certain statements made
therein. Not having seen the article
referred too, | am unable to say
wheather | have been quoted correct
ly or not, but will say that if you
have published my letter to Mr..
Sinclair of your place that the mat
ters stated therein are absolutely
correct-and true in every particu-
lar.
have not the honor of being in
timately acquainted with o. c..
Smith, but have met him at two
county conventions, when he had
each time grievance to air against
some of his fellow townsmen, and
was given the privilege of the
floor by me, as chairman of the
convention, at one time. After he
had finished his TRADE against his
friends at Hope, it left me in a
state of surprise that any intelligent
community would send him to a
county convention to represent
them. My slight acquaintance
since that time with him only con
tirmed my opinion that he was not
only untitled by nature, but his
moral standard was so low that he
was not fair representative of
the people of Hope.
MIR. Smith says, having gone to
the convention with the detcrmi-
nation of voting and acting for my
district to the best of my ability"
Now did Mr.. Smith vote and act
for the best interests of his district
for | presume the interests of his
district and the interests of the
county are identical. Was it for
the interests of his district that he
voted to give the joint senator to
Latah county and leave Kootenai
county without representation in
the senate? do not believe his
warmest friends will admit that.
Was he honestly carrying out
the instructions of his district
when he voted against the senate
resolution passed at our county
convention? The people of Hope
can answer that question be tier
than | can, but | do not bell eve

it. Even Mr.. Henry felt bound by

and would move when the string
was pulled. III had wanted his vote
| would have gone to his master
and tried to make a bargain with
him. All the conversation | had
with him on that subject l had at
Rathdrum and he did not tell me
he would not vote for me, but left
me with the impression that he
would vote for me and said he was
opposed to Mcconnell.
Smith did not ask me in the
Overland Hotel in regard to my
transportation. He ought to have
known that the way voted at the
state convention carried no trans
portation to men who vote against
them.

I'hreatenIng Gestures.

Iwould observe that the shaking of
the clenched hand as a demonstration
of hostility has apparently no relation
in its origin with the custom Of using the
fists after the manner of the pugilist.
The gesture Is in use all the world over,
but the custom offghting With the naked
fists is rtrictiy loci and does not appear
10 have any very great antiquity. A
Frenchman or Italian will shake his fist
much more readily than an Englishmsn,
vet neither Of these people have attained
to that of civilization markell by the
custom Of arriving at an agreement by
the disputants pounding one anOther's
features.
In every case, except where the dem
onstrator has some familiarity with the
art of boxing, and has not lost all self
control, the fist is not displayed in
manner which suggests its use as a
punching o'gIn. but is held as high as
the head with the line Of the knackles
vertical in exactly the position, in fact,
as though the fingers grasped a weapon.
To shake spear or a club at fje IS a
common way Of conveying a threat
among sll primitive savzges, and if 10
weapon is within reach, an expressive
pantOmime Of the action is performed
Nj the hand only. 1t is noteworthy
that women or girls who are less
specialized that men as regards such
matters, and whose instructive actions
are therefore much more valuable to the
naturalist not only shake the fist in that
way, but generally persist in holding he
hand in some unseientifis position when
they endeavor 70 emulate the pugnacious
sex.

prove to be inssinctive-and this point
must at present be held to be somewhat
Doubtful will be Of peculiar interest
to anthropologists, since it appears TO be
derived from the habit Of using some

AColonlaI Thanksgiving.

Among the papers Of the late ex-Slate
Senator Gny c. StOJdarl Of the town OF
Ledysrd vas found an old newspaper
clipping containing quaint accoant Of
