Saturday night the members of the
borough school board met in special
session in the directors room in the
High school building, and after a some-
what lengthy session, settled the two
important questions which have been
the topic of conversation among the
residents of the town for the past six
weeks, viz, the election and placing
of fifty-three teachers for the ten bor-
ough schools and ten janitors for the
buildings. The only exciting and in
teresting part of the evenings pro-
gramme was the election of principal
for No. school building.
Professor Joseph Gray the principal
of No. building last year, was an ap-
plicant for reelection, but in his ex-
aminatiOns for Il provisional certificate
he failed. Superintendent Il. d. Bovard
granted him second trial, but a fall
ure to make the averages set by the
board resulted in this one also. Mr.
Spencer moved for a third examina-
tion, which if not satisfactory would
result in Mr.. Gray being dropped. The
rest of the board were dubious about
setting precedent for other years,
while the superintendent suggested
that he hardly saw how a third eX-
animation could be given Mr.. Gray and
the other applicants who had failed be
denied the same.
Mr.. Miller said he thought ample op-
portunity had been given the applicant
to pass, If proficient. After a hot dis
cussion lasting over half an hour, in
order to dispose of the matter, the
board took a vote on the question. Two
members voted for, while the other four
remained silent Finally, by mutual
agreement, a third examination was
granted Mr.. Gray.

Idle mines contribute TO present dull
ness in the stock market and in mining
circles in Spokane. But when the fact
Is appreciated that the reason many
big mines are idle is that they are pass
ing through a period Of transition in
preparation for bigger work than ever,
there is encouragement in the outlook.
The LIE Roi, first of all the gold mines
in kootenay, has suspended shipments
and stopping, and the management says
it is not because the Dig vein is less
productive, but because the machinery
which made il possible for Spokane
operators to pay well up toward a
million dollars of dividends is no lon
ger adequate to the mining which the
British American corporation is under
taking on larger scale than was pos
sible by the Spokane men. 1t il believed
that when the magnificent new hoist is
erected the Ls Roi will pour more gold
into the pocket, of it, London owners
than it did into the pockets of the
lucky Spokane men who found aud eX
plotted the mine.

In Republic camp the Republic
mine has about suspended develop

great property lies waiting for the com
pletion of reduction works. The
management refuses to spend the
stockholders dollars in handling ore
twice or thice that should be handled
but once. When the new mill has been
rushed to completion the mine will
again send out an abundance of gold.
There is a bright day ahead for the
mining camps. Indications are that
the labor difficulties retarding devel-
opment in the SLOGAN are about to find
reasonable settlement through the
intervention of the businessmen of the

POLITICS BARRED, AND A GOOD, FRIENDLY vsIT-DAWs0N
COUNTY SOLID FOR THE POPULAR HERO.

Glendive, Mont, Sept. 16.-The special
train of Governor Theodore Roosevelt
and party, consisting of John Proctor
Clark, special attorney in the Mazet in
quiry; Col. Curtis Guild, Jr, of Boston,
Mass, who was on the staff of Gen. Fitz-
hugh Lee in Cuba: two secretaries and
ten newspaper correspondents, a train or
six cars, made it's first stop in Montana
this afternoon at this place at 3 O'Clock.
The stop lasted for thirty minutes and
the reception was indeed an enthusiastic
one. Politics was entirely overlooked,
the day being especially observed at the
request of the colonel who wired in ad-
vance that it would be a favor that pol
itics he eschewed from the meeting. The
governor wired that he would be happy
to meet all the people as citizen, a
neighbor and friend, regardless of poll
tics and that he wished especially to
meet the ministers of the city, most or
whom were present.
The day was an ideal one so far as the
weather was concerned, and the ranch
ers, sheepmen and cowboys came from
a distance of many miles to help greet
their ideal statesman, hero and country
man. The railroad shops, located here,
furnished a full quota of laboring men
who were happy to greet man who up
held the same principles that they did.
The local committee did all in their
power to make the reception an informal
one, and were very successful IN their
effort. Democrats and republicans alike
passed down the line and paid their trsb-
ute of respect to the man who lead his
comrades against the forces arrayed un-
der the Spanish flag at San Juan. Many
ladies and children wished the colonel
we'll and were delighted at his courteous
and sincere II am very happy, indeed.
to meet you."
A happy incident occurred when an old
soldier introduced a comrade as one OF
the "muchS feared imperialists OF the
'60's" The governor took the old hero
by the hand and said, II guess our gov
ernment has learned to respect the i'm
berialism which you represent"

than formal work to do in the meeting

the current reports that the Chinese
question will require legislative action
in November. The foreign office, in an
nouncing that Prince Ching and Earl Lii
are fully authorized by the emperor to
negotiate with the powers virtually
takes the whole subject out of current
politics for many months. During this
long interval public interest in the east,
at least in England, will gradually sub

The approach Of the elections, how
ever, has invested Lord Roberts bulle-
tins with much of their old fascination
for the public. General MacDonald's S
success IL driving bands of guerillas
across the Vet is the principal incident
recorded in the last "a hours, and it is
hailed as a brilliant exploit. The last
stage of the war contains, however, little
heroic on either side.

that it is doubtful II they can continue
work during the entire day.
Every official connected with the Unit
ed Mine Workers now in the district, with
the exception of President Mitchell,
started out before 6 o'clock this morning
for picket duty at various collieries. All
had returned to headquarters by o'clock
and reported that they had been success
full in induing men to stay away from
various workings.
A number of leaders also reported that
several of the mines are being guarded
by watchmen to prevent union men from
attempting to induce non-union men
to quit work.
The first march of strikers In this re-
gfon took place early this morning when
about one hundred men from McAdoo,
Audenreid and Yorktown, headed by a
brass band, marched through the south
side. en- route to the Colleraine colliery
with view to inducing the men there
to quit work. The strikers did not use
force, but were quiet and quite success
turned to their homes. The marching
miners then went back to McAdoo and
dispersed.

squally for few minutes, but the wom-

did not interfere with the strike and they
returned to their homes satisfied.
At Evansville washery last night a
number of men were held UP on the Haz-
elton road while returning from work
and were compelled to promise they
would not go to the mines to-day. They
kept their word.

Other reports from the south side to-
day give instances of individual cases of
violence yesterday against miners who
did not quit work. No one was seri-
ously hurt.
It was estimated at noon to-day that
the number of additional mem in this

morning was about 500. On the north
side all but three or four collieries are
operating with reduced forces. Strikers
say some workings are not mining any

give outsiders the impression that the

eNception-that of the Eckley collieries-
