THE TEACHERS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Speak. Truthful Words for Their
Cause and for Education.
[Communicated.l


A highly civilized and enlight-
ened people always sacrifice time
and money freely to foster the
work of education, and ultimate
ly it proves to be, not sacrifice,
but a decidedly good investment
from every point of view. Our
Western States are framing their
school laws according to the best
models that can be found in the
Eastern States and in Europe.
The State of Wyoming with
pol school districts scattered
over an area of $4,000 square
miles has its county superinten-
dents, SO of whom are ladies,
riding from one district to anoth-
er through summer winds and
winter storms to lend their aid
to teachers and school officers.
Idaho lacks this county super
vision, but her teachers secure
partial cooperation among them
selves through the State Read
Jag Circle, the State Teachers
Association, and the Eastern
Idaho Teachers Association.
The State Association holds its
next meeting at Boise City in
December and the Eastern Idaho
Association, which meets semi
annually, holds it's next meeting
at Blackfoot, April 11th and 18th.
the people, through their teach
ers, derive great benefit from the
work done at these meetings and
every district within $50 miles of
the place Of meeting should give
its local teacher or teachers en-
couragement to attend. OF
course there are some teachers
who do not wish to attend, and
the fact that they are absent
from such gatherings is sure TO
stand in the way of their being
employed again as teachers, for
school officers are quick to dis
Germ from that, who is in earnest
in the work of the school room
and who simply puts in his or
her time from love of ease and
for the money there is in it.
Such teachers will be surpris-
ed in year or two to find that
those who were active workers
in these associations were pur-
suing a systematic course OF
study that has enabled them to
fill positions more satisfactorily
and thus crowd the others out
into other lines of work where
they will probably attain no bet
ter success than they did il
teaching.
We have already published the
program of the Blackfoot meet
ing and the executive committee
led by chairman Byrd Trego, has
placed copy in the hands o.
every teacher known to be il
Eastern Idaho. Since the pro
grams were printed arrange
ments have been perfected fol-
State Superintendent c. A. Fores
man to give an address on Ele
ments of Success.
The Union Pacific will give
cent-a-mile rates returning; tick
cts on sale from April oth, anG

Those purchasing tickets should
state that are going to the
Teachers Association and agents
will issue certificate tickets ar
ranged for that purpose.
The people of Blackfoot ar
arranging to give the teachers /;
royal reception on their arrival
THE MESSENGER will have ;
representative there to get
brief report of the work done a
the meeting and list of th'
names of those who attend.

DOWN TO DEATH
Manuel Carpena Falls Fifty Feet Down a We'll, and is
 Instantly Killed.

A sad accident occurred last evening about , o'clock at the well below town from which Hernandez, the water hsuler. gets his water.
 The son of Hernandez and young Carpena, the latter aged eight years, were together hauling water from the well and filling the barrels on the wagon near by Without warning, while a bucket of water was being raised, the pulley overhead broke and fell Inio the we'll. The boy who had hold ol the rope did not let go in time, and when the slack gave out he was pulled down head first.
 His companion at once shouted for help, and John Treu, who was a- Overlock's slaughter house near by, came to the rescue. He descended into the well, and found the body oi the lad cold in death. A fracture oi the skull showed the cause of his death to have been from striking one of the projecting rocks about twenty feet down. He was no doubt dead when he reached the water, which was about four feet deep.
 His body was al once brought te town, and his distracted mother in- formed of her loss. The father. who Is working al Congress, was notified by wire.
 The boy was hard working little fellow, and was a iayorite with hi, comrades.
 Tue funeral look place this after noon. The expenses of the buria were delrayed by citizens, who sub scrbed for that purpose, Chief o Police Doyle taking the initiative II collecting the money.

The Flagstaff Democrat says: Some. one is responsible for a mistake tha. may cause a barrel of trouble to the A & P. railway company. It appears that Mir. Perrin of the Perrin Land & Cattle Co. purchased a piece of land adjoining the town of Williams from the railroad company for a considera- ton of $25O0. It now appears that the railway company's great water reser- voir is located on this very piece of land. The dam IS a splendid one, cost ing some S60O0O. MT. Perm claims the dam is now on his property. and it looks as if the lawyers will have a rich Job before this interesting affair is settled.

There are several laws an the terri torial statutes which are now and have been openly violated, and others which are not being enforced by the super visors of the respective counties, which sooner or later may result in their bondsmen being called into court. A board of supervisors which pays out larger salaries than are allowed by law and refuses 10 pay others which are directed to be paid by law are running double risk. A word 10 these officials ought to be sufficient, an it is no snl all thing to violate official duty.-Star.
