For school Library.

County School superintendent j. W.
Shipley has mailed the following clrcu'
,or to the teachers of Morrow county:
HEPPNER, Oregon, Dec Is, 1902.
Dear Teacher In pursuance OF the
resolutions adopted by the annual insn
t,te Of Dec. 3, A, 5, 1902, l enclose
blank petition to you for the purpose OF
securing signatures of taxpayers IN your
district. The Library Law, If adopted
will raise $172 for library books. Inc
assessor. Mr.. Sailing, states IN rouno
numbers that the total assessed Vaiu8-
t;on Of Morrow county for 1902, is 81
800 900. 1t will thus be seen that TO
raise S172 will only require tax levy OF
OOOO7 per cent Many persons VIII at
first sight object to signing the petltloh'
but when it is explained that man
having taxes on SO 900 will pay only
20 cents. and man paying taxes on
81 900 will pay only .O7 cents l THINK
Won will have no difficulty in securing
signatures.
If possible, see al Of the largest tax
payers and the representative men o
your district.
It depends upon us whether this Ii
brarv law is adopted or not, and woul'
appreciate it very much II you "ou''
begin at once with the petitions an
when thev are filled. send them to m
at your earliest convenience, as oes'r
n bring the matter before the Count
Court about Jan. 7th, 1903. Hoping
receive a good petition from your di'
trct I am Very truly yours,

emotions. 1t is given in four acts and
no less than ten scenes, and among
