STATE CANT AFFORD
And Gov. ~on't call
Special Session.

Governor Toole, in an interview Mon
day, says he has decided not to call
special session OF the legislature for
the purpose of making an appropria-
ton for the fair at St. Louis.
The governor Says he is satisfied
from the responses of the members of
the legislature on the subject that they
would willingly serve without expense
to the state during'a session devoted to
that purpose, but the governor says he
does not think the state is in a position
to make any appropriation for an ex-
hibit at St. Louis.
He figures up the revenue and the
fixed expenses of the state for 1901 and
1902 and he estimates that there will
be Il deficiency of S33, 200 While he
| a cknowledges the fact that in an ex-
traordinary emergency the state may
incur an Indebtedness of 81 900, 900, he
does not deem this an extraordinary
occasion or at least one that would
| justify the state in creating the debt.
He says that while the sentiment of the
state is for representation of Mon
tana at ST. Louis he does not believe
that under the circumstances he would
be justified in asking the legislature
to make an appropriation for the pur-
pose. He purposes to appoint an hon
orary commission in the. hope that the
members may be able TO evolve a plan
whereby money may be raised for an
exhibit by Montana at st. Louis.

cation is shown.

ROSEBUD PEDAGOGUES Will MEET
Interesting Program arranged for the lnstruc-
ton Of Teachers.

Preparations are being made for the
first annual teachers institute, which
is to be held in Forsyth November 18th,
18th, 18th and 14th, and all indications
point to large attendance and most
successful convocation of teachers in
this end of the state.
The corps of instructors comprise
some of the best talent known to Mon
tana institutions. None of them are
strangers to the people of the state,
especially to those interested in educa-
tional lines. Prof. H. v. Beeman,
superintendent of our city schools,
needs no introduction to the people of
Rosebud county. Miss Anna L, Har-
wood, who has the chair of training
and methods in the State Normal
school, will be welcomed by every
teacher in the county. Miss Helen
Reynolds, of the Miles City public
schools, will be present at the session,
and her different talks on educational
topics are expected to be one Of the
most interesting features OF the occa-
sion. The official position held by
State Superintendent Welch, Of Hell
cna, is guarantee of his ability and
makes an introduction superflous. The
painstaking zeal of Miss Gertrude
Higgins, county superintendent, is as
surance that every detail of the meet

Occupation License.

County Treasurer T. w. Longley is
sending out notices to merchants and
other persons who are delinquent in
the payment of their occupation license,
requesting them to pay up.
Mr.. Longley has received COM
munication from State Examiner Hud-
nall asking him 10 make an extra eff
fort to collect the license delinquent
Nov. l. The examiner says.
LIT is a great injustice for some to
pay license and others in the same line
of business to escape payment. Be
sides the state is interested in having
prompt and full collections made
Mr.. Hudnall requests that a copy of
the list of delinquents be furnished to
the county attorney at the same time
1t is sent to him, SO that the official
may have the basis for suits for the
amount of delinquencies. Such lists
are to be furnished every three months,
SO that Mr.. Hudnall can compare
them. If he finds the same names on
two successive lists he will push the
county attorney to enforce collection.
Those who pay license can now keep
a check on their delinquent neighbors
and competitors, for the law requires
the publication every June and Dec.
of the list of those who have paid
during the previous six months. If a
man or firm is doing business without
having paid, it can easily be ascer-
| tained by reference to tbs list.
