There are some people in this
district, who are not informed,
believe, or at least have been
misinformed relative to the new
text book law of Idaho. They
contend that the books must be
furnished free to the scholars,
and that the Trustees have no
right to selI~said text books to
the scholars. The law is very
plain in this matter. For the in
formation of those, we refer them
to H. B. No. 254, page 403, Sec
ton 8, General Laws of the State
of Idaho, approved March 9,
1899. 1t reads
Sec. 9. The county superin-
tendent and the county treasurer
shall each keep an account of
all books ordered, showing the
number of the district, the numb
er and kind of books, the date
of the order, the place from
whence ordered, the date and
the amount of the remittance
and such other items as will in
their judgment render the whole
transaction easily understood
Provided, That the Trustees o.
each district shall determine
whether or not the text books
for said district shall be free text
books, and if it shall be determin
ed by said Trustees that said tex
books shall not be free then any
parent or guardian or other per
son having the legal or actua
control of a child or children
shall be required to purchase th'
necessary books for such chile
or children from the Trustees o
his district at actual cost to tha
district, and the Trustees shal
pay the purchase price back int
the treasury, the same to b
placed to the credit of said dis
trict Provided, That in case
where it is deemed by said Trus
tees that any parent or guardia
is unable to pay for said tex
books, the same may be furnish
ed free"

Strange as it seems, the Unit
ed States government has not
taken complete accounting of
the actual total weights of the
mail matter carried by it for over
twenty years. During the time
since the last general weighing
of mails handled by the railroads
and other common carriers the
volume of our postal business
has increased enormously, and
in recent years the transporta-
ton weights charged for by
these carriers have been largely
taken on faith, as the Post Office
Department could only estimate,
but not accurately know, wheth-
er it is being overcharged in the
enormous sums that it annually
pays for mail transportation.
Some idea of the wonderful
increase of this branch of gov
ernmental business is had from
the fact that an expenditure OF
$50, 393, 200. 80 for carrying the
mails in 1888 had swelled to So,
294, ,3S2. % in 1898. an increase to
nearly double in ten years. On
Oct. 3rd next every postoffce In
the country-80, 900 of them
will weigh all mail matter pass
ing through them for % days.

Accidents in mines resulting in
death have become so numerous
of late that the inquiry whether
something cannot be done to
lessen these casualties is natural.
In most cases it would appear
that the trouble is in a great
measure due to the carelessness
of the injured men, though the
safeguards in mines are not num-
erous. By daily familiarity with
the workings miners become
careless and subject themselves
to danger where strange miner
or one wholly unfamiliar with
mine workings would sustain no
injury. Miners boldly work
under ground known to be dang
erous; they walk about on wet
timbers far above the sill floor
without the least concern, where
any other person would cling
timidly to a post for support;
and in many other ways miners
take what appear to the uninitia-
ted to be deperate chances. Some
of these elements of danger can
not easily be eliminated from the
business of mining but others
may to a great extent be guard
ed against. The injury which
comes to men through careless
ness in passing up or down
shaft on skips or cages may be
avoided by employing enclosed
cages for the men. Guard rails
may be placed around shafts al
stations; strict rules can be en-
forced concerning the keeping
and handling of powder under
ground, and various other pro
visions made to lessen the danger
to men, but there is no way to
wholly avoid the danger attend
ing the catching up of a baC
piece of ground, though it may
be reduced to a minimum by tax
ing the necessary precautions
Danger from blasting in the bot
tom of shafts may be avoided b,
the employment of the electri'
apparatus, but some mines d'
not even provide ladder for th'
escape of men, depending solel,
upon the hosting engine to rails
them quickly from danger
While many of the accidents ar
due to neglect and parsimoniou
!, management, the greater numb
er are due to the personal IN
concern of the miners themselv
es, who when recognizing dang
: er take no steps to have the cor
dition bettered.-M. & S. Press
