vened in the high school building Au
gust IL, for Il two weeks session.
Early in the year Supt Repa.s mailed
an outline of the work for the session

giving them an opportunity to prepare
their work before the opening of the

The instructors, with one exception,
are the same as last year. Prof. III. a.
Kinney of the Woodbine Normal
school is conductor, a position held for
the past five years by Prof. G. II. Cur
ney of Hillsdale, Mich. Prof. Kinney
is successful educator of many years
experience in the different lines of
school work. AS conductor of insti
tutes, he has few superiors. His prac
tical instruction In school manage
ment will be of much value to the
teachers in their work the coming
year.
Supt. Hooker, of the Audubon pub
lie schools, is serving his fifth year as
instructor. He is well and favorably
known to the people of the county as
al educator o. marked ability, having
been superintendent of the city schools
of this place the past four years.
Mrs. Emma Holman, of the Des
Moines public schools, is serving hel
fourth year as instructor in primary
work and methods. She has made
this line of work special study and is
perfectly at home when dealing with
children. She illustrates her methods
by instructing a large class of children
i'll the presence of the institute.

Extra schools for the past three years,
is serving his second year III the in
stitute. He is graduate of the Ag-
ricultural college at Ames, and has
charge of the sciences He does not
believe in teaching dry facts, but illus
trates his work by drawings, charts,
and experiments before the class.
p. b. Woods, principal of the schools
at Pleasantville, Ia, has been with us
the past two years. Mr.. Woods is a
teacher and an institute instructor of
many years experience, and his work
is highly appreciated by the teachers
of the county. He has been principal
at Pleasantyille for the past ten years,
record of merit and honor that few
teachers make.
Mr.. Lancelott, teacher of the
county, has charge of the work in pen
manship. Mr.. Lancslott deserves the
credit of being truly self.made man.
There are few students as earnest as
he Is.

fort to make the present institute the
most successful ever held in the
county, and has the satisfaction of

Judge II. ". Smith.

Judge Harvey w. Smith, OF the SUI
preme bench OF Utah has crossed the
Divide. He has gone 70 that court
where kingly death holds his pale sub
iects in decay, and bought with life
OF usefulness home in the Eternal.
Judge Kentucky" Smith was well
known in Idaho. Atone period he was
active in making the most exciting
portion OF her history. He was man
OF ability, and was bold and fearless in
his expressions touching all measures
which he espoused. After leaving
Idaho he located in Ogden, where he
soon won large practice and which he
followed until appointed 10 the supreme
bench OF the Territory by President
Cleveland. Judge Smith was overwork-
ell. He overtaxed his strength and this
sowed the seed OF disease which robbed
him OF his life. For more than month
his intimate friends knew that he was
almost at Deaths door, but he was
brave, courageous and hopeful 20 the
end. He believed that he would re
cover. But the end came Saturday OF
last week, and life Of usefulness and
activity In his profession went out intc
darkness which is beyond the end.

Interest in the Property.
Joseph Pinkham and Joseph vena-
BILE have made deal with Charles E.
Thum by which the latter secures
controlling interest in the Viola mine,
In the Black Hornet district. 1t is
understood that State Treasurer Bunt-
ing Is back OF Mr.. Thum In this tran
saction.
Messrs. Pinkham and Venable se-
cured a bond on the property June LIST
last, running for year. This was be-
fore the Black Hornet, OF which the
Viola is an immediate extension, had
developed into such fine property,
and the bond was secured at a very low
figure.
As nearly as can be learned, the
terms OF the deal are as follows: Mr..
Thum and his associates will furnish
money necessary for development work
on the property. II the showing OF ore
jnstifies IL they will also build mill.
and when the bond falls due it will tie
taken care of by them.

them handsomely for the work they
have done, IL tic.pations respecting

DO You Care for Your appearance

Look well TO the attractiveness and
symctry OF the mouth. The loss OF
tooth gives one a wolfish, Mr.. Hyde

artificial one. Have YOU one that is
even slightly decayed? Have that de-
cav stopped at once, or Father Time

say. My teeth are all right. they don't
ache. oh yes wait until you are ad-

generally pretty sick. Consult DR..

to the notice of the careful observer
that n who is more or less doubtful
about starting business in a southern

Licenses like many other taxes of

of feudalism, when only those We're
taxed who were too weak to resist. y
1t is strange that our southern
states, which have prided themselves
bn their liberal views in regard to in

most oppressive system of locIl protec.

There is no doubt that the eNorbitant

Southern Privilege Taxes.

DR.. R. T. Ely, in his Taxation in
American States and Cities" draws the
following distinction between the
northern and southern system of Ii.
censes:
Northern states and cities require
licenses for a few specified pursuits
only, and leave every one perfectly
free to enter all other occupations
according to opportunity and incli-
nation. The system of freedom pre-
walls.
Southern states and cities pursue a
different policy; namely, that of re-
striction. A special tax is exacted
from every one who within their limits
attempts to gain a livelihood, and the
purpose of the license system is two
fold; first, revenue; second, local pro-
lection by exclusion of competition,
This entire volume would not be suf-
fciently voluminous to give all the
regulations concerning licenses in the
southern states"
In Charleston, S. c., for instance,
there are ffty-six classes of businesses
to which licenses are issued and the
revenue derived from these is nearly
one-fourth of the total revenue from all
sources.
In Charlotte, n. c., barkeepers pay
81, 900, express companies $3.50, gas or
electric companies 500, etc, and the
schedule of licenses" in the tax ordi-
nance of Atlanta occupies over six
pages.
In Tennessee. license taxes form a
larger part of the fiscal system of the
state and of cities than in any other
state of the south. Five pages of the
Code of Tennessee NJ. and Ware taken
up III ~enumerating the occupations
which require a license, and sixty such
are named. In fact only lawyers and
dogs are exempt.
DIR. Ely thus outlines the objections
to this mode Of raising revenue.
1.-THE system of licenses on persons
engaged in ordinary pursuits is most
vicious one. It tends to promote pau
perism because it makes it difficult to
enter any pursuit which one may de-
sire to follow. The license fees are
considerable, and are q great burden to

state and presented facts, showing that
the Pullman Car Co. has, for several
years past, evaded the payment OF

There can be no doubt Of the treason,
or of the dishonesty, of the man who
robs the state, whatever difference OF
opinion may exist as to the loyalty OF
strikers whose refusal to work, a v on
their own terms, results in delaying
