Teachers Certificates.

The following we're the successful
applicants for teachers certificates at
the meeting of the Board of Education
held last week.
A. 7. Baldwin, Stockton; Zadia A.
Newell, Oleta; Pearl Warren, Siski-
yon Co; Isabel Calls, lone; Emma
Baker, Kansas; Edith V. Holdings
worth, San Francisco; Claudio ".
Hunsicker, DavisviIle; Sayde Edsin-
ger, Santa Clara Co.; Lorene Kelley,
Willows; lsmay Wilson, Stockton
Hazel E. Turner, Sutter Creek;
Almena Goodman passed the ex-
animation but being under 1S years
of age it was impossible for the board
to grant her certificate.
Besides granting certificates to the
successful applicants the board adopt
ed three additional text books for use
in the schools of Amador county, as
follows; The Children's s. First Reader,
to be used the first year with the
Primer; Children's Third and Fourth
Readers. These are issued by the state
and are to replace the revised reader
heretofore used in the several grades.
They we're adopted for use at once,
as the state authorities make their
use compulsory after January first
next.

The Morrow Pamphlet.

The pamphlet issued in the form OF
now assembled at Pacific Grove,
petitioning that body to reopen the
matter of the charges preferred at the
last conference against the minister
ial character of the Rev. +. A. Nor
row, under the pressure of which
charges he withdrew from confer
ence, has been circulated broadcast
in this community. An announce
ment in another column states that
they may be had free of charge at the
residence of the ex-clergyman in
jackson, or copy will be sent to
any address, by mail, on receipt OF
four cents postage. The document
is remarkable production in several
ways; not because of any additional
light that it throws upon the scanda
Ions anonymous letters, or theii
authorship; for we cannot see that 1t
adds one little of information beyond
that which has been a matter OF
common notoriety. The one query
that will be uppermost in the mind OF
the impartial reader of the amphlet
will be: 'tWhat was this pamphlet
published for? What motive prompted
its circulation in advance of the as
sembling of the ecclesiastical body
to whom it was addressed and to which
the publisher appealed for redress OF
alleged grievances? Is that the propei
course to take before any investlgat-
ing tribunal to print and scatter
broadcast one-sided and palpabIy
prejudiced statement of the case?
Much of the contents of this pamph-
let is mere twaddle; some OF it presses
close to, if it does not actually over =
step the line of unavailable matter.
The feeling that will prevail in the
mind of the majority after its perusal
will be that such statement, coming
from an ex-miniister, and one who
wants reinstatement in the minister
ial ranks, and addressed to a conven-
tion of ministerial brethren must be
either the product of a disorderd
mind, or designed to stir up further
factional strife and turmoil in this
community.
No good can possibly result from
its circulation. Probably over one
hundred persons in Jackson are
mentioned by name in the pamphlet.
OF course, the statement will be
talked about. Any statement of like
character would be under such
conditions. We cannot do otherwise
than deplore this new aff1iction as
a grievous mistake, and inimical to
the peace and good will of this COM
mun1ty.

Incorporation.

The Ledger is in favor of the in
corporation of jackson, with the re-
servation that the boundaries of the
city are kept within reasonable limits.
The necessity of keeping thel lines
within workable limits must be patent
to every unprejudiced mind. 1t is
not necessary to discuss such an alb
surd proposition that the more terri
tory included within the city limits
and the more taxable property secur-
ed thereby, the less the tax rate is
likely to be for municipal purposes.
1t is not SO. Sufficient to say that
If territorial extension is the main
thing to be considered jackson had
better remain unincorporated as a
town. We are incorporated now as
a part of the incorporated limits of
Amador county, and it is simply
because while so Incorporated we can
not control our local affairs as we
would wish, and as the interests of
the community demand, that we real
ize the need of a city government.
Any undue expansion will place the
residents of Jackson in far worse
plight, as an sindepeudent municipal
lty, than they are now in as part and
parcel of the county government, and
under the exclusive control of the
board of supervisors. We have no
hesitation in saying that farming and
mining property, as such, should on
general principles, be kept out of the
incorporation, unless such property
lies within the residence or business
portion of the town, and therefore
must of necessity fall within the
municipal boundaries. 10 reach out
after such property merely for the
purpose of swelling the city assess
ment roll is, in our humble opinion.
a fatal mistake, and one which. if
successful, will be manifest to all
before the city is two years old. 1he
government will be faced at all times
with strong hostile element that
Will surely prove handicap at every
move in the direction OF progress
and improvement. What will farmer
living mile from the local post office
think of proposition to bring him
within the jurisdiction of a CITY
ordinance prohibiting the main
tenance of hog pen within the city
limits? How would he take to the
idea of being taxed for lighting,
sprinkIing, macadamizing the streets,
and maintaining sewers for the benefit
of Jackson property holders. And
on the other hand, would the resi-
dents of the town proper take kindly
to the plan to burden themselves
with the maintenance of county roads
a mile away from the resident dis
tricts.
We speak in all friendliness to the
incorporation movement properly
safe guarded, but believe the lines

A TRAVELLING STATE
LIBRARY FOR JACKSON.
Application Has Been Made,

The Ledger is IN receipt of the
following from the state librarian,
James l.. Gillis.
Sacramento, Sept. 8, 1905.
Ledger, jackson, CaI-GentIemen--
We noticed in the Ledger of August 4.
an item, "Why not a public libary?"
and we we're very much interested.
We have tried many times to interest
different people of your town in the
state travelling libraries, but we have
not obtained any results as yet, and
are glad to know that you are giving
the proposition your attention. We
enclose the circular and application
blank, and will send a library to
jackson as soon as the taxpayers and
secretary's agreement blank is return
ed to us properly filled out.
You can easily get together five
taxpayers, and get the library there,
and then with few notices in your
paper the people Will respond very
quickly, and appreciate your help in
the matter. There is no doubt about
It's being a success there, and we will
expect your application soon. Yours
truly, James l.. Gillls State Libra
rian. By Laura Steffens, deputy
travelling library department.
AS SOON as the above mentioned
documents were received, we started
to secure the signatures of five tax
payers to form the jackson Library
Association, and to act as trustees.
The following were secured. j. II.
Langhorst, George l.. Thomas, Rich
,rd Webb, W. F.. Detert and M.
Newman.
The certificate of Superior Judge
K. G. Rust was affixed as to the
responsibility of the five taxpayers.
These taxpayers are responsible tor
the safe return of the books and case,
and for damages other than ordinary
use and wear.
In order to start the library the
books will be kept in the Ledger
)ttice or room in the Webb build
ing, and the editor OF the Ledger will
rake charge of the same as secretary,
until other arrangements can be made
The application went forward to the
state librarian yesterday and the
library will no doubt be received in
the course of few days.
There are 50 volumes in each
library, on different subjects, science,
history, travel, biography, fiction, etc.
A library can be held not longer
than SIX months, when it must be
returned, and another sent IN its
place. The books are loaned free
of charge to any person who will
agree to take good care of the same,
and promptly return them after use.
The library will be kept open for al
least one hour of three days in each
week for the taking out or exchange
of books.
The long felt dissideratnm ofa cir
culating library for jackson will in
the course of two weeks be a thing
| of the past.
