the same as if no such privileges had
been given them"

AT meeting of the board of educa-
ton of school district No. 1, of WAL
la Walla county, held at 2 o'clock this
afternoon the bonds recently voted by
the special election were awarded to
the state of Washington, which bid
four per cent for the bonds, taking
them at par. The directors present
were Crifield, Gardner, Stewart and
Hunt.
Only one other bid was made, that
of E. H. Rollins and son, of Chicago,
who bid four and one-half per cent,
at 800 premium. Two other houses
were ready to bid, but the bid of the
state was lower than they could make
and they submitted no offer.
Three companies were represented,
ready to bid on the bonds. The Har-
ris Trust & Savings company was
represented by H. L. Harker, of Chi
cago: E. H. Rollins & Son were repre-
sented by w. a. Scott, of Denver; and
Macdonald and Mccoy were repre-
sented by T. NJ. Kerkhoff, of Chicago.
The bonds amount to $4,000, be-
ing the amount voted at the special
election held this fall. They are to re-
place a warrant Indebtedness of that
amount, as it was thought the war
rants would draw much more interest
than bonds would. Further, it was

Chicago Dentist For Wibaux.

This Office is in receipt of a let
ter from DR.. 0. r. Niece, a Chi
cago dentist, stating that he will
come to WibauX for the practice
OF his profession, and expects to
be permanently located here at
at an early date.
WibauX has been greatly in
need Of a dentist for the past ten
months, as most of her dentistry
work during that time has been
done either by out Of town or
travelling dentists, and now that
Wibaux is to have a dentist per-
manently will not only enable
us to keep our money at home,
but will also add greatly to the
convenience in having such work
done and lessen the expense re-
quired in transportation. We are
of the opinion that Wibaux would
easily support a dentist and, al
though our former dentist left
us several months ago, for green
er field in the west, he informed
us that during his practice here
he enjoyed a liberal patronage
and that he would have continu-
ed his work here had he not
found an opportunity which he
thought was still more promising.
Here's success to DR.. Niece in
his new field.

Farmers Institute for Wibaux.

Some time ago Mr.. w. A. Or
gain wrote the superintendent Of
the Montana Farmers Institute
regarding the possibility Of hav-
ing an Institute held in Wibaux
this summer but at that time it
was thought that it would be
impossible to do so but since
then Mr.. Organ has received
the following letter which is
self explanatory, and an Institute
will be held here on June 10
and it will be a far better meeting
than we had anticipated as the
institute staffs Of the two states,
North Dakota and Montana, will
both be here and there will thus
be twice as many good speakers
as was anticipated.
An Institute such as this will
be an excellent thing for the
many farmers who are SO rapidly
settling up this country and they
will no doubt avail themselves o.
this opportunity. Mr. Organ
is deserving Of credit for his en-
terprise and public spiritedness
in securing this meeting which
will be the greatest institute or
occasion Of this kind ever held
in Dawson County.
The letter is as follows:
Bozeman, Mont, May Is, 1903.
Mr.. W. A. Organ,
Wibaux, Mont.
Dear Sir
Your recent letter asking for
q farmers institute at Wibaux to
which we replied unfavorable,
has been reviewed in connection
with another plan; namely, the
holding Of joint meeting with
our Institute staff, and that of
II. D. We are now planning to
hold joint meeting at Dickinson
N. D., Tuesday, June 18th, and
one at Wibaux, Mont, Wed,
June 18th.
The Montana corps Of speakers
and that from N. D., will be pre-
sent at both meetings and we
ought to have some rousing good
speeches. Will you spread the
notice Of this meeting and men
ton it to your local paper?
| will write again soon the de-
tails and the names of the speak
ers when received and arrange
for advertising ard programs.
Do what you can to interest your
local people, as Montana desires
to sustain a good reputation with
her neighbors.
Very truly,
F. S. Cooley
Supt. Farmers Institutes.
