rendering II into Spanish. II was no
easy task. for Blaine spoke rapidly and
with that wealth OF figuratlve speech
which always marked his discourse.
But Ferguson did II not only rapidly

A ma named Charles Jakobsen, who
says his home is at Twin Bridges, in this
state, is under arrest at Minneapolis for
attempting to realize on bogus drafts
purporting to have been issued on the
First National bank Of Twin Bridges.
When arrested he had about $35, 900 in
drafts on his person. Jakobsen tells a
flimsy story of having been given the
drafts in Butte by a man who gave his
name as Hub and who said he was presi-
dent of the Twin Bridges bank. Jakob-
sen says he was told by Hub that he had
sold a mine for $3.50, 900 and wished some
one to go back east and have the drafts
cashed.

How the Supreme Court Decis-

MUST CLOSE IN FEBRUARY
There's No Way Out OF the Hole Except
Through Special Session OF the
observation-disclosures Cities At
fected the Same Way,

The decision rendered by the SUI
preme court yesterday declaring null
and void those sections of the school
law which provide for the raising of
money for school purposes by special
election, will raise havoc with the
schools in Anaconda, as we'll as in
many other Montana cities. The Ana
conda district at recent special cleo
ton voted a levy of four mills to carry
on the schools the usual length of time
The levy cannot now be assessed
ut is peculiarly unfortunate" said
member of the school board last
night. There is now no other possible
way of raising the money, it being
too late for the county commissioners
to act. as they could have done a few
months ago The special tax would
have brought us in about $4,000 De-
prived of this money. I don't see how
it is possible for the schools of Ana
conda TO run more than four or five
months--I should say five months at
the longest. That is to say, they must
close about the first of February. The
board has been raising money in this
way for the past six years, and i. be-
came such an established custom that
the county commissioners have taken
it for granted that the distric. would
always follow it. and so they made
up their budget accordingly. Several
other Montana cities. nearly all Of
them, I believe, are in precisely the
same fix as Anaconda"
The only way out of the dilemma lies
in a special session OF the legislature
which could be called by 1ne governor
for the purpose of passing a law that
would hold water.
