PAY THE TEACHERS WELL
School Districts Will Elect Directors
on July %.

The annual school meeting in all
the districts Of the county will be
held Thursday, July 20, at which
time will be elected a director and the
patrons will also make the tax levy
and may decide whether a male or
female teacher shall be employed.
The Western School Journal gives
some good advice. 1t says:
"There is no reason why the annual
meetings to be held thia month should
not devise liberal things. The i'm
mense wheat crop will make it easy
in at least half the districts in the
State to pay good wages. No teach.
er who is fitted by training and ex-
perience to do the best work in coun.
try schools should receive less than
fifty dollars a month, and there are
many cases in which sixty or seventy
dollars would not be too much. OF
course the young person just begin
ming to teach cannot expect and
should not receive the maximum sal
airy, but the minimum in all districts
which have a fair valuation basis
should be much higher than tits now.
There should be advance of from five
to ten dollars a month to all grades
OF teachers. Let us hear no more of
wages ranging from eighteen to thir-
ty dollars a month In wealthy dis
tricts. In writing these lines we do
not at all forget that our iearfully-
Observation-Disclosures school tax laws
make it impossible for hundreds Of
districts to raise for school purposes
more than from 800 to 5000 a year.
Our remarks are intended solely for
districts which can pay liberal wages
at a low rate of taxation"

ELECTRIC LIGHTS IN PROSPECT.
Jacob Brown Proposes to Run the
Plant by Water Power.

For some months Abilene has dis
cussed electric lights at intervals.
Not until now has there been any
thing definite in view. We are now
informed, however, that Jacob Brown
will soon begin active operations aud
II there is the proper encouragement
will put in an electric light plant at
his mill south OF town and convey the
power to the city for street, store and
house lighting. His son, Cleyson, is
expected home from Wichita to assist
in the management and construction
Of the plant.
This time is very suspicious for
for putting in the plant. Business is
good, people are encouraged by pros.
representations and the city is in
shape financially to light the streets
which was scarcely the case two or
three years ago. Under the excellent
management Of the council and City
Treasurer Sterl Abilene's finances
have been put in model condition.
Nearly all the debt has been refunded
with a saving in interest sufficient to
make a big payment on lights. The
sinking fund is growing and the
debt is being reduced. The city
has now about Sc, 800 on hand in cash
in the various funds. 1t is amply
able to pay $1,000 to $1,000 a year
for arc lights for the streets and this
would probably give at least ten
lights. A leading Union Pacific Off
Ger recently said that road would
gladly pay for two or three lights at
its crossings, and the Santa Fe and
Rock Islands, which are never behind
in progress, could be depended on to
do their share in putting up lights.
With four or five arc lights furnished
by the roads and ten for the city there
would be a very good lighting Of the
town and with such support Mr..
Brown could amply afford to put in
the plant. He could by using water
power run it much cheaper than any
plant, and Abilene, hav.
ing now got in position to afford
should give the matter encour-
agement and have some Of the con.
v~enienCes Of municipal existence like
other towns Of similar size. By act.
ing promptly the system could .be in
working order by the time Of the
short days and long nights OF autumn.

JUST FOR AMUSEMENT.
Enterprise Soldier Knows Why the
Doth Is Out.

Carl Merrill writes an interesting
letter from Camp Merritt to the En-.
terprise Journal in which he gives his
opinion why the goth regiment is in
California. He says:
"All the boys are getting along fine
out here trying to entertain the San
Francisco people. We are not here
to fight but simply for the amusement
Of the California people. We seem
to be quite a curiosity to them.
"We received a box OF fine cake,
cigars, writing paper, pencils, ETC.,
from our Detroit friends Saturday
and we did not hesitate a moment
about accepting it.
"We have plenty of sand to sleep
on, which makes a fine bed, springs
.
and mattresses not to be compared
with it. Trying is convincing and |
have not yet seen the time when
night comes that | could not 90 to
sleep.
"The boys in our tent are visited
by two girls formerly from Enter
prise) quite often and one bold soldier
boy could not resist the temptation
Of jumping the guard line to see them
and now he is sorry he jumped. The
penalty was one night in the guard
house and two hours heavy marching
orders with a necktie on consisting OF
one poncho, one blanket, and one
shelter tent. He says he was well
paid and is now ready for another
march for a fifteen minutes talk with
Anna"
A dispatch from San Francisco says
the goth has been moved two miles to
Fl. Preside, owing to the unhealthi-
ness of Camp Merritt. This may be
their permanent camp until the war
is over for no other troops are to be
left after the next expedition goes to
Manila except one regiment from
Tennessee. The boys are in mighty
hard luck.

A PIONEER FAMILY.
Something About Early History in
This County.


In the Kansas City Gazette, G. W.
Martin tells the following interesting
story Of pioneer times in this county:
"The ABILENE REFLECTOR tells US
Of the death Of Mrs. Lamb, aged So
years, in that county. She was the
mother Of three or four of the liveliest
hustling boys ever known on the
border. They are all quite old men
now, but in the COS and early 70's
they gave promise Of never being old
or quiet. In corn raising, freighting,
contracting, political primaries and
conventions, or any other kind of a
show or fight, they were known north,
south, east and west. In those days
the great political struggle in that
section was between Junction City
and Salina. There was no great
principle or merit involved, only a
little rivalry not encumbered with
scruples. The Lamb boys stood in
with junction City. There was mus.
ic in the air always. There was no
Doodle in those days-nothing but
mental shrewdness, and work,
such as an all night and all day
drive somewhere. There is a
good border story we may be par
doned for telling on the Lambs. We
read today Of packing houses and
stock yards having their mail pouched
direct to their doors. In the days Of
staging, p%ostofice accommodations
were meager. The Lambs lived a
long way from postotice or neighbors
and they did not like being cut off
from the world. So they prepared a
petition to the postoffice department
asking for a postoffice at their place.
1t was established, and the stage COM
pany delivered the mail for the Lamb
family pouched right into their house.
In a year or so the department tum-
bled to the fact that only one family
was getting mail at that office and it
was discontinued. Another petition
was prepared and Detroit succeeded
Lambs Point, and the outside intelli-
gence Of the world was again pouched
direct to and for the exclusive use of
the Lamb family, and this continued
until settlement rendered such genius
no longer necessary. A family SO
determined on knowledge and with
such ability to get it, could not be
else than earnest and enthusiastic
Republicans. The Lamb family made
their mark, and the mother they have
laid away contributed wonderful
vigor through her offspring"
