appoRr,onmknr FOR SCHOOLS.

The first state public school appor'
ttonment for 1905, amounting to $751;
G35, has Just been announced by Sup<r
intendent OF Public Instruction J. W.
Olsen. The per capita apportionment
Is 81. 80, In which 365, 49O school chill.
dren share. The spporttonment 10
made from the interest derived from
the investment of the permanent scho'
fund, amounting to over $50, 600, 600,
and from the state l mill school tax
In order to share in tho apportion-
ment the pupil must attend school At
least forty days in the year. The ap-
portionment for the various school
districts Ia paid to the auditors OF the
various counties, who In turn distrib-
ute the apportionment to the districts
in the county.
Kandiyohi county 10 among the
leaders In the state, considering her
population. She has 1919 pupils On.
titled to state aid, and a. the per
capita apportionment 10 $3.50 she
accordingly receives the sum OF
5,s6s.50. OF this amount the city OF
Willmar receives $500 so, having An
enrolment OF s67 pupils. Saperin-
tendent Dobbyn states that 800 pupils
have failed to attend the required 10
days and hence the schools Of the
county will lose $1,000. The appor-
tionment for the entire year will be In
the neighborhood of u per capita and
the entire loss to the schools will
therefore amount to about 81, 900.
This loss could be reduced to . great
extent if the parents we're more diligent
in sending their children to school, at
least for the IT quired period OF time.
We understand that some OF the school
districts Of the county have lost more
than $50 each thru this negligence on
the part of the parents. Altho the
number of those not entitled to sp-
portion ment was somewhat less last
year ending September, '04, than the
year ending September, '03, there 10
still room for much improvement
The system of awards for attendance
introduced by Supt. Dobbyn has
proven most beneficial in stimulating
in the pupils desire to have "per.
tect' attendance. Any pupil who has
attended school for the period Of ono
month without missing day IL pre-
sented with q certificate to that effect.
When the pupil has secured five Of
these 20 Is given Z Certificate Of
Award" and whom he has succeeded
in capturing three Of these he 10 finally
presented with the much coveted
"Diploma of Honor which shows
that he has been "present" a* school
every day during . period Of Is
months.

4 REMARKABLE MEETING.

The citizens mass meeting at the
Bonde Hall last Friday evening was
an inspiration to every thinking man
who witnessed 1t. All who have made
study Of the municipal and local
government agree that outside issues,
such ~ national and state politics,
should be lost sight of and local is
sues only be considered in choosing
officers for city government. The
temperance element of Willmar has
attained Ut last, after years Of struggle
and Misunderstanding, q stage which
borders very nearly to the ideal, 40
witness the meeting Of last Friday
evening. In spite Of the cold weather
there w.s a body of nearly two hun.
dred citizens representing every part
OF the city and every faction and in
terest except that Of the saloon ole.
ment. Among those present might be
traced every shade Of political opir.
ion and church af'iliation. They were
earnestly united on the purpose of the
meeting, however. 1t wa' = meeting
of earnest and determined men. Bust
ness Vas dispa' ched with dignity and
decorum and all seemed interested tn
remain until the close. Although
more than seven hundred signatures
were taken and acknowledged, there
was no confusion. Not the least re-
markable feature of this public nomi-
mating macs meeting was the singing
OF the doxology before adjourning.
The writer could not help but com
pare in his mind the dignity and de-
corum of this meeting with the mobs
that in the past have been diRnified
with the name Of caucuses, where the
meeting would open with 4 bully ing
match and close with coarse jests and
boisterous talk of the faction that
would remain in possession of the
field.
This 10 the third year that an i,de.
pendent city ticket has been nominased
in this city by petition At . public
mass meeting and to one who has ia
ken any interest in political csucuses
and conventions, these meetings form
. very Interesting study. Wishing to
avoid even the semblance of . politi-
cal party owing to the attitude of those
who had controlled the dominant party
of the city, this manner Of nomins-
tions was resorted to. Each candi-
date 30 nominated goes on the ballot
~ an independent candidate aud those
who participate In the nominations do
20 by signing the petition and stating
their purpose under oath. This
method of making nominations was
first regarded as IN unnecessarily
complicated system, being considered
simply % "red tape" necessary in
ordt r to c molly with tho letter of the
law In Practice however, the cit
zeps' movement Of Willmsr he's proven
that this method Of making nontna
lions wh. r, I'll tho s,guers 10 brought
together, 10 we'll worth al the trouble

ABSOLUTELY FALSE SAYS PARKER
judge Alton B. Parker, Democratic
candidate for president in 1914, gave
the Associated Press q statement con-
corning President McCall's testimony
relative to the soliciting OF funds
from the New York Life Insurance
company by Democrats in 1904. The
statement fol!o2s:
my attention has been called to
certain testimony said to have been
given by NJ. John A. McCzll while a
witness before the insurance inVesti
gati-n committee In reply to Mr..
Hughes question whether he thought
| 'taat in 1904 the Interests Of the pol
/ ic; 1clders were SO seriously endanger-
ed 81 al the COMPANY ought to contI1.
bute.'
It is evident that Mr.. Mccall was
laboring under great excitement in
making his reply, for it is Very inco-
herent. But if his answer is intend
ed to convey the impression that il
the campaign Of 1904, I. either d.
rectly OF Indirectly, solicited from
him or his corporation or any other
corporation, any money or valuable
thing, his statement Is absolutely
false. On the contrary, I repeat now
what said before the election, that
I expressly notified and directed the
chairman OF the executive COMMITTEES
Of the national committee that nc
money should'be received from cor
porations."

SLIGHT DETERIORATION.
Cotton Condition Not as Good as =
Week Ago.

Section Director Bauer weekly crop
report says the mean temperature fol
the week ending Monday, September
18Th, was slightly below normal, due
TO very e0ol weather early in the week
and warm at lis close. The extremes
Of temperature we're maximum Of 96
degrees at B!ackville on the 18th, anc
a minimum Of 81 degrees at Cheraw
on the 18th. There WIS slightly less
than the normal amount OF bright
sunshine over the southern and east
ern counties and about normal amount
In the central and western counties.
There were numerous showers over
the eastern and southern counties, and
very little rain, in many places none
over the western ones. Excessive
rainfall occurred in Florence and Dar.
iington counties, In the latter there
8ere 8 inches recorded in "a hours.
Lands were washed, streams flooded
and bridges carried away, and crops
were seriously damaged on uplands as
yell as low lands. Generally the
weeks precipitation was nee3ed and
proved beneficial. Over the western
and northern counties the ground is
vary dry and late crops are suffering
for moisture. Streams ard wells are
bec1miDg low, and it is too dry for
fall p!owing and for seeding oats. Fre-
quent showers interrupted farm work
along the coast and to a lesser degree
in few interior southern counties,
while the weather was favorable fcr
continuous work over the greater por-
uion Of the state.
There was a slight deterioration in
the condition Of cotton due, mainly,
to premature opening cau1ed by rust
and drought. On sandy lands the crop
is rearlv all open and most OF 1t PICK
ed while over toe state generally 1t is
opening fast. Growth and fruiting have
stopped, but this Is immaterial, as
what fruitage would be taken on after
this GiEe would not mature. Cater
pillars have appeared in Berkeley
county on cotton, which is the only
report OF damage of insects this week.
Lste corn is in need Of rain. There
is a slight deterioration OF minor crops
due to want OF moisture, over the west
ern parts and Slight improvement
in the eastern portions. Fall truck has
improved, and recently planted seeds
are terminating well. Rice harvest
made good progress. Much hay and
other forage was saved In prime COZ
