SPECIAL SCHOOL TAX
VIII probab y Be Much Less Than Three
Mills

VIII probab y Ee Muci, Less Than Three
No opposition to the proposed special
levy Of a tax TO support the schools of
this district has yet been made manifest,
and it Is improbable that any will de-
yelop. The total levy for school pur-
poses will not be any larger than it was
last year, The people OF Great Falls
! have always been justly proud of the
schools OF the city, and no protest
against the size Of the levy for the pur-
pose Of maintaining the schools has ever
been maue.
The trustees have carefully estimated
the amount tnat viii be required next
year and it is evident that their request
that TIE qualified electors of the district
authorize special levy Of not 20 exceed
, mills Is reasonable.
Last year the cost OF maintaining the
schools was 900, AID, with this sum,
great difficulty was encountered Oh ac-
count of the fact that 81 800. which
should have been available, was on de-
post as a bond in the suit of the Amer
lean Exchange National bank OF Chicago
against the district.
The cost tnls year will be this $4,000
aud, in addition. $4,000 for interest on
the outstanding indebtedness. At least
three more teachers must be employed,
whose salaries will amount to $500.
There will be an increase in the enroll
nlent Of at least 200 pupils this year, and
this will necessltate increased eypendl-
tures; these items vii, make the total at
least $4,000.
1t is expected that $4,000 will be re-
Ceiyed from the general apporlionment
if the county commissioners make levy

intendent Swan's recommendation and

NEVER FORSOOK HIN.

Regret of = Thief That He Had to Be
Tried without = Scarf Pin.
In an Eastern state there has been
series of barn burnings, which had
destroyed thousands of dollars worth
of property. In some cases residences
and stores had caught fire, and there
was no end to the damage. Fine
horses and vehicles. hay, grain of
every sort, and the odds and ends of
property which is generally stored in
barns all went. The citizens of the
little village were greatly licensed
and left no means untried to catch
the offender. Finally, during the
thirteenth fire, the guilty man and
his confederate were caught Popu-
lar indignation ran so high that had
the crime occurred in Kentucky, the
men would have been lynched. But
they were thrown into Jail to await
trial. The day before the trial a
prominent man called upon the chief
offenders wife and found her crying
bitterly.
He looked about in vain for some
means of comforting her, but could
only pat her on the shoulder and say:
There, Mrs. s., don't take on so.
Maybe they'll clear him. though
down in his heart he hoped they
wouldn't. But she only walled
louder.
"Oh, it isn't that. But to think
Jim's to be tried tomorrow before a
big crowd of people and he hasn't got
any stickpin for his necktie. He is
awful proud, Jim is, and whenhe was
arrested he told me to get him a
stickpin if | could, but 1 haven't been
able to save cent. Oh, it's awful to
be so poor
And the kind hearted man actually
took out dollar and told her if she
could find stickpin at that price to
save the family pride.

FRESH MARKET GOSSIP.

Furnished by the Topeka Grain and Stock
Exchange. Real Estate Building.
Wheat: Opened steady at about I'M
changed prices from Saturdays closing,
and although offerings were heavy there
were plenty of buyers who took all that
was offered and bid higher for more, adj
vancing the market to 5514 in few
minutes, remaining between 90 and 55A
until about noon, and eased off little
on a rumor that the government crop re-
port this evening would be very bearish,
the crowd deciding to wait for the official
before doing any more business.
p The situation has been of a most inter-
esting character for over two weeks, and
although every sign has pointed to a
good rise, the market has moved upward
with deliberation.
The news from all over the world con-
tinues to force the bull argument on the
attention of the trade, and it would seem
| that the dull resistance of thoroughly
fatigued and disappointed body of mer-
chants must soon give way to the normal
| feelings of commerce.
Our news from Argentia shows that
the greatest part of the crop is shriveled,
| and that of the two or three million
| bushels so far exported has been of an
| inferior grade.
Liverpool has long operated with nerve
to depress the fortunes of America.
In this way English stocks have
lowered steadily, and the British peo-
pie have favored all other sellers
before they have acceded to the stop
loss prices at which our large supplies
were offered 1t is therefore with dis
may that the French news is received by
John Bull and contradictory reports were
sent. all over the world. The rapid de-
crease of the American visible, and the
Worlds supply have given a rising
expectation to wheat, for we could
not expect our stores to decrease more
speedily. OF late each weekly statement
has exceeded the estimate by one half,
and the next day Bradstreets estimates
have nearly doubled the official figures.
| There are indications of renewed trade
with world wide interest and wide huc-
tuations. and wheat ought to advance 10
cents a busheL Buy it on all breaks.
Corn-Opened strong at an advance of
| lac from Saturdays closing and ad-
vanced to 1875 for the May option,
caused by good cash demand and higher
cables. An immense lot was dumped
on the market when wheat was
easing off, with the expectation
of depressing the market, but all
offerings were promptly taken and the
market never weakened particle, clos
ing strong and at the top. Everybody
seems to be waiting for corn to ease off
a little in order to buy it, but we are
; afraid these people will have to wait a
long time 1t is a safe Investment at
these prices, and advise buying it for a
good profit.
