SPECIAL school, TAX.
Nearly All have Paid Their Subscriptions
No Free High School Next Year.

County Treasurer Davis reports the
collection Of nearly 80 percent OF the spe-
cial school tax levied by the Red Lodge
district. All but three or four of those
who subscribed have paid and those de
linqucnt, it is expected, will shortly con
tribute to the fund. Among the heavy
taxpayers who have contributed, are the
Rocky Fork Coal company, $5l5.49;
Rocky Fork Town 4 Electric company,
$l5O.85; Carbon County Bank, 5000;
Bank of Meyer 4 Chapman, $47.4S; Car

ID. q. O'Shca, Sl77G; Weaver Bros

The schools will close next Friday,
which is the end Of the school year.
Owing to the increased advantages af-
forded by the county free high school
the year just now closing has been Il
very successful one in educational cir
cles, and it is unfortunate indeed that
the county commissioners have decided
that the finances of the county will not
warrant the continuation of the county
free high school the coming year.

Census of Red Lodge Practically Com.
pleted, With Nearly 1900
Names Enrolled.
\ GOOD ENUMERATION
It Takes Tact and Diplomacy to Do the
Work, Especially Among Hitter
ate Foreigner

l.. 2. Sichler, census enumerator for
the district comprising the city of Red
Lodge and the precinct of Roberts, with
the immediate contiguous country at
tached practically completed the city
enumeration the first of the week and is
now engaged in listing those living in
the outlying territory. In enumcrating
the Italians and Finlandcrs unable to
speak or understand the English Ian
guage, Mr.. Sichler called to his assist
ance two interpreters Philip Favario
for the Italians and Sanfrcd REMAND for
the Finlanders.
Owing to the large foreign population
the work OF securing the census i'll this
city was unusually irksome and in a few
instances somewhat unpleasant. A few
were found, who. not understanding the
reason or the Importance of the en,,mer-
ator'S visit, looked upon the cnumcrator
with considerable suspicion, but Oh the
whole no serious objections were made
to answering The questions when the
matter was fully explained by the inter
prefers. Among a certain class Of for
cigners, Mr.. Sichler had to use tact and
diplomacy, but in no instance was he
called upon to cause anybody's arrest, as
he has full authority to do in case of the
persistant refusal of a rccalcitrant to
answer questions. Mr.. Sichler makes m
admirable enumerator. Hc is painstak
ing and patient and always pleasant
and affable. Conscientious in the dis
charge of his duties, he has done his
work in this city faithfully and we'll. For
fear that he may have overlooked some
body in his house to house canvass and
in order that those who arrive while he
is working out IN the country, he has
left n blank ut the Spotforl hotel. where
all those who have not been listed should
call at once and get their names on the
census roll. This is a very good schcme
and reflects credit ON the cnumrrntor in
his desire not to miss asinglc individual
Mr.. Pollard. proprietor of the SpoiIord,
has kindly consented to enroll the names
