Salaries of Teachers.

The feature of greatest interest in
connection with the budget is the provi-
sion made for schools. AS stated al
ready. tho aggregate devoted to pay roll
Is about forty thousand in excess OF last
year. but 1t develops that about 100000
of this sum will be required to meet the
payroll of teachers In the annexed
schools. which were not included In last
years budget. Deductlng this from the
total increased appropriation, there is
left a net increase OF about 10000 or
nearly that sum. This Is to be divided
among something like 225 principals,
teachers or employees, so that the sum
available would provide for an average
Increase of about sos per year or about
twenty per cent. more than was paid the
district school teachers last year.
1t is generally accepted that as the
budget is for the entire year 1907. the
Increase in teachers salaries will apply
from January list and be apparently re-
trOactive.

great many other demands OF the
several departments were for salaries
OF officers or employees which had not
then been authorized. The committee
could make no provision for tho pay
OF men not already employed ordi-
nances creating the positions proposed
being required before the matter could
come within the purview OF the depart
ment. The same is true of salary in
creases5 which one or more departments
sought to cmbcdy in their budget
DR.. T. c. Levy,

for instance. asked for u physician az

Not one of those posl,Ions had been
provided by ordinance. Since then
ordinances have been INTRODUCED to
create the positions. and when they
made for them The same Is true of
the Fire and Police Departments. Until
the increased force Is authorized or
salaries are increased by ordinance
the committee could not consider them.
There is another branch of demands
upon tho budget which were not con-

Much Opposition.

The recommendation Of a reduction
of five cent sin the tax rate is likely
to provoke strong opposition. There
are many members of the Council who
oppose this recommendation contend-
Ing that the $4,000 thus cut off the
revenues should be devoted to paving
and other street improvements. which
1t is conceded are badly needed IN
many quarters. Others are impressed
with the possibilities suggested by the
Mayor, as consequent upon the con-
secration Of this sum annually to swell
the sinking fund. The committee itself
was not unanimous In this recommcn-
.dction. The outcome Is exceedingly
doubtful.
Tho Council meeting Thursday night
will bring out pretty clearly the atti-
stude Of members toward the budget
and 1t may then be seen what will be
the fate OF various recommendations.

In duplicating MCGEE and Merrill,
Lewis alleges that these men are
working for the interest OF Wells,
Cronan, and Munson, TO secure the
financial ruin Of the company, that
1t may be thrown into the hands of
receiver and that it has been planned
that should this end be accomplished
Connolley to named receiver that
they might acquire the control of the
company, forcing Lewis out Lewis
asserts that the alleged conspirators
have called upon various creditors
and told them that the company was
insolvent, financially bankrupt and
urged them to press their claims since
January /, 1907.
In speaking OF these creditors,
Lewis mentions the name of the firm
of Curtis 4 Yale, strong GUS
toner, which had entered into large
contract with the lumber company
land had advanced money on the con-
| tract.
Lewis asserts that Cronan is not ao
ting In good faith, but had every op.
portunity TO investigate the books un-
til 1t was found that Cronan wanted
this information for the rivals of the
company, and while the names of no
rivals are mentioned, it is limited
that the rival Is the Occur d'Alene
Lumber company.
Lewis states that stockholders
meeting was held In Spokane at which
report showing the affairs of the
company was read and that this re-
port showed the company's assets to
be- 81, 800, s59.93 with liabilities
which embraced undivided pro.
fit of $406, 1872. so to the same amount.

will be necessary unless blood poison
ing sets in.
