The tour of President Mckinley

The tour of President Mckinley
has been one grand ovation. Not a
discOrdant note has been sounded
at single point along the entire
line of his journey. Partisanship
has been laid aside. The President
and the people are mingling to-
gether with the traditional demo-
cratic spirit of our forefathers.
The people are glad to see the
President and the President is
glad to see the people. He has
been especially oppressed with the
hospitality with which he was
greeted III the South, and the noisy
West is getting ready to take the
President by storm. And so the
entire trip will he from the White
house to the Golden Gate, thence
through tne great Pacific North
west, over the mountains and across
plains, and on across the continent
until he alights again at the White
house. Nor is this homage due
alone to his Official station. AS one
after another of the policies of the
President mature the whole county
comes to realize that William Nc
Kinley is not the mercenary poll
tician that has been pictured but
man of the highest patriotism. His
depth of character is just begin
ming to be understood. There
is nothing in the carear and char
acter of William Mckinley that
prevents the people giving full
vent to their enthusiasm on this
patriotic occasion-the visit of the
chief magistrate. Mr.. Mckinley will
visit Spokane on May 26 and the
occasion will be made a great day
of celebration. Many Idahoans
will tender their greeting to the
Pre- ident in the Inland metropolis.
it is the misfortune of Idaho that
the Z resident will see SO little of
the States resources, but in his
journey across the Panhandle he
will pass through one of the most
picturesque portions of our country
and will receive favorable in
pressiOns.

The School Question.

The public school m Getting last
Tuesday evening was quite well
attended. President Elliot was
made chairman and George
Middlebrook, secretary of the
meeting, and The present con-
dition of school matters was
fairly presented. The over
crowded condition of the present
facilities has for the past year
necessitated the adoption of half
day system and home study, but
considerable objection has been
raised against the system, though
it is generally admitted that it
has been the wisest course that
the board could have pursued
under the circumstances. To
secure full-day school it will be
necessary to rent rooms outside
of the school building for two or
three of the grades and employ
an additional teacher. This will
provide temporary relief, but
the poorly lighted and lily venti-
lated rooms in these rented quar-
ters will be a constant menace to
the health Of attendants, to say
nothing of forcing the children
upon the streets for a play
ground. A fair canvass of the
situation, however, will convince
anyone that a new school build
ing for at least the high school
department, is an imperative ne
cessity. But the difficulty pre-
senting itself here is that about
all of the present school revenue,
which is at the taxable limit, is
absorbed in the running expen-
ses of the school. and the law
permits bonding only to the ex-
tent of three per cent on the as
sessed valuation. This would
not provide the necessary funds
for suitable building, but it is
believed that if a united desire is
exhibited toaccomplish the work,
with the aid Of the municipality
the school district could possibly
provide funds for the erection of
a credltaole building. Surely,
Us a public enterprise, no ex-
penditure Of public money could
be more wisely made than in Sc
curing good school accom- moda-
tions. The mum Der of non-resi-
dent pupils already attending
and paying tuition in the Miibank
school indicates that a large scope
of country will with coming
years keep this number increas-
ing, and unless our city is awake
to its opportunities and provides
up to date facilities, these young
people will be obliged to seek
other towns to secure education
al advantages.

BIG SCHOOL FUND.
David Eaatman Tells How the
State school Fund II Growing.

The high prices at which the school
lands have sold in the counties where
offered this year give very good in.
dication OF the advance In value over
the state. Commissioner Eastman,
who has been attending the sales in
different counties, has given out the
following interview:
"No one who hasn't personally in
vestigated has an idea of the rapid
rise of farm lands during the past
year or two. We have already made
the sales in several counties and the
prices secured show an average in
crease of fully % per cent over what
we could get last year. The demand
is strong and the result is more than
satisfactory to the state.
''Under the law the state land board
selects the counties in which the school
lands are to be offered for sale and
fixes the minimum valuation for their
sale. Then we sell them if the bids
are high enough. This year in nearly
every case we received considerable
more than the assessment.
''The lands cannot be sold for less
than $40 an acre and we do not offer
any lands that are not we'll worth this.
The board has confined the sales for
this year to twelve counties in the
eastern part of the state where the de-
mand for high priced lands is strong,
and we are more than satisfied with
the results.
"The counties selected were Brown,
Day, Roberts, Grant, Clark, Cooling
ton, Hamln, Brookings, Kingsbury,
Lake, Minnehaha and McCook.
Mr.. Eastman then gives the results
and continues:
"Thus in these five counties we have
sold lands this spring for total of
5000, ,3Os.75. We are con ident that the
total sales in the twelve counties will
reach fully half million. The sums
received hitherto since statehood
amount to 1892, 900. We shall thns
have in the school fund nearly 81 ,OOO,-
600 all drawing 6 per cent interest and
the general income to be divided
among the schools will reach from the
interest account $240,OO0 per year,
while the income from the leases will
| bring it up to many thousand dollars
| more.
Last year we distributed among
the schools of the state about quar-
ter of a million dollars, while during
the coming year it will run much
higher than that. All of our money
is now out, owing to the adoption OF
the constitutional amendment increas-
ing the limit for loans from $500 to
81 900 and permitting us to invest 10
school bonds.
"The school lands originally grant,
ed the state by the general govern
ment amounted to l,l50, 400 acres. on
this great quantity there have beer
sold 238,0 900 acres only, yet we have :
fund of four millions. l have figured
out that if the remaining lands are
sold for the average price received ur
| to the last sale, namely, Sl4 per acre,
we shall have an annual income suf-
| ficient 20 pay all the salaries paid
| teachers in this state in 1910.
