BOND ISSUE
COUNTY JAIL
VOTERS IN NEE PIERCE COUNTY
WILL BE GIVEN OPPORTUNI-
TY TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES
ON ISSUE THIS FALL.

The efforts of the Commercial
club to secure better jail facilities at
the courthouse will result in a bond
issue being placed before the voters
at the regular November election, at
which time they will be asked to
vote upon the question Of providing
funds for the erection OF a new
Jail building and sufficient funds to
make needed changes in the court
house.
The actual conditions at the coun-
ty Jail are now quite well under
stood throughout the county as the
delegates to both the republican and
democratic conventions were shown
through the jail building by Sherih
Harry Lydon. The present quarters
are too small, not properly ventila-
ted and lighted and are genrally un-
sanitary. The plan of the Jail con-
struction is far from modern, and an
earnest effort will be made to secure
a favorable vote for sufficient
bond issue to provide new quarters
for this department of the county's
business.
The commission has not yet de
termined the amount to be asked To-
in the issue. but 1t Is expected suf
f,cient sum will be sought to provide
for improvements to the courthouse

LOCAL OPTION
live ISSUE


While the local option resolution
that was prepared for the demo-
cratic convention was held In the
pocket Of one of the anti-Dubois del
egates because the anti-Dubois lead
ers convinced him that the cause
was defeated II the local option is
sue was injected into the situation
at that time. the cause is not laid
away permanently. and the voters
at the next county and state cleo
ton will be asked to 60 on record
on the local option question.
y The chief fight at the democratic
county nominating convention will
be over the question of whether the
local option shall be by counties or
by precincts. The advocates of To-
cal option say by counties. the sa-
loon interests are in favor OF local
option by precincts. s
"You can say that local option
will he one of the leading issues oi
the coming campaign and that reso
lutions will be introduced both al
the Wallace convention and th'
county nominating convention,
said a prominent democratic leader
today. I'VE made mistake in no.
Introducing the resolution at th'
last convention. regardless of wheth
er Dubois won or lost. but there will
be no halfway stand in the future
We shall fight for local option b!
counties. as the people in all sec
tions Of the state as we'll as in tn
county have a right to say what tn
conditions shall be in the citie
where they send their children t
school and where their families ar
compelled to go to do their trading
| II have heard the theory advanc
ed that the reservation citizen
would vote for local option becaus
the reservation is dry by reason G
! the Dick decision. II the reservs
tion people find the conditions In
proved since the open saloon
driven from their midst, I believ
they would be good judges Of whs
we should have In Lewiston an
other cities outside the reserve.
"The local option fight is on an
we expect to win throughout tn
state at the polls this fall"

COUNTY FINISHED MAY Is
FEW SUMMER SESSIONS.

Fully 20 per cent of the 1913
schools in Neg Perce county closed
for the year on May Is. and within
a short time all of the schools with
the exception Of eight districts will
have finished the spring terms.
In the eight districts summer

near Snow. Webb Ridge. Forest.
Westlake. Dublin. Fletcher, Orofno
and Sweetwater and with the excep-
tion Of the Snow district school for
the higher grades have been con-
Quoted during the winter and spring
months.
Many of the teachers who have
been employed In the school work
during the past year will return
next fall to their old positions. ad.
vances in salaries being offered to
retain them. It Is also probable
that many new teachers will enter
the work In Nez Perce county next
fall, and the letters on iile In Coun'
ty Superintendent McCoy's once
show large number of applications
for schools will be made by teachers
from the Eastern states.
With the opening of the schools
