CIR CULAR LETTER TO
COUNTY SVPERINTENDENTS
Coercing Election of School Directors.

Section 1882, Compiled Laws OF 1897 provides that, /;
l. On the second Monday in March, March 9TH !
school directors shall post notices Of election to be held on the !
first Monday in April (April 9TH !
q. Only legal voters residing and paying taxes in said !
district shall be qualified to vote. CA man who pays poll tax is !
a taxpayer.) !
3. Hours of election, 8 a. m. to 5 p. m. !
4. Place of election, school house Or some other con-
venient place specified in notice. !
5. Result of election must be certified to county super
intendent by directors giving notices of election and acting IS
judges of such election. !
8. Terms of Office of newly elected directors begins first
Monday in May following election MAY 4th, 1oo8)
7. Directors must file oath with county superintendent
before first Monday in May, May 4th, 5000
8. Penalty for failing to post notices and to correctly
report the result Of election.
Chapter LV, Laws of 1901 provides,
1. Term of Office of school director, three years.
q. Election to be held to fill vacancies.
The law changing the date of election of school directors
to the first Monday in April passed the Legislature last spring at
so late a date that it was impossible for the various districts to
hold an election in 1907. Directors whose terms were to expire
in 1907 have, therefore, held over to 1908. This being the
cas-. there must be at least two school directors elected in each
school district on April 9th, 1908; one for three years to sue
coed A. who was elected in 1903 whose term expires May
fourth, 1908; one for two years to succeed B. who was elected
in 1904 and whose term expired in 1907, but who was held over
because of no election.
The terms of all directors who hold Office by appoint
ment expire May 4h, 1908, therefore directors must be elected
in such cases. If the districts have been recently organized
and al members OF the board OF directors hold office by APP
pointment, three men must I've elected, one for three years, one
for two years, one for one wear.
There may be some apparent complication in the matter
Of election this year, but the point should be kept in mind that
this election must be so planned that under average condition
only one director need be elected in 1909, and he for a term of
three wears.
would recommend that the county superintendent
carefully study the conditions in each OF his districts and notify
each board of school directors, giving definite directions as to,

WHAT SHE GRAVES.

While there may be now and then
married women whose desires are
satisfied If they have all the clothes
they want and modest sum of
spending money, it is more than like
ly that the lives of great many are
unhappy and cherries for the lack of
love and appreciation for the hum
drum work of life which so many
perform Nncomplainingly When a
woman goes as bride to the mar
riage altar she dedicates her life to
the happiness and welfare of her
husband in far more complete and
unreServed manner than he does to
her. This the considerate husband
will keep in mind. He has interests
which properly take him abroad
among his fellows. Hers keep her
much at home This he should try
to make bright and attractive not
only with paint and paper, but with
smiles, appreciation, and consider
alton. In the vast majority of in
stances homes are not unhappy be-
cause of lack Of clothes, furniture
or ready money, but for lack of un-
selhshness and sincere affection.
The greatest blessings of this life are
thus within reach of the poorest, yet
are often unrealized in the homes OF
the most wealthy. F. E. Trigg, in
Farm, Orchard and Garden.

ATTRIBUTES OF GOOD
CITIZENSHIP.

1t is true that no man is a good
citizen until he takes an active interest
in the appearance of the town; no
man is a good citizen who regards his
town merely as a place in which to
live; no man is good citizen until
he becomes jealous about the town
and all her material and moral affairs.

himself every once in awhile: What
can do to make the town better

POLITICAL DISHONESTY.

Webster defines the verb pledged
thusly: To bind or engage by
promise or declaration; to engage
solemnly.'' The political definition,
however, particularly as exemplihed
by republican delegates at the state
nominating convention at Boise last
week, is different.
The nomination of Congressman
Burton l.. French for election to his
third term as representative of the
state at Washington, d. c., was
considered as certain as any other.
The chances of Senator Hepburn
and Judge ]. F. Ailshie were looked
upon as no more favorable than
French's. The congressman abil-
ity as an officer of public service and
his record of having run 1000 to5,-
900 votes ahead of his ticket gave the
voters of the state every right to anticl-
pate and to desire his denomination.
Reports came from all over the state
before the convention of the great
number of pledged delegates for
French, along with other prominent
men on the winning ticket And
these reports were true. The dele
gates were pledged, but in some cases
these pledges meant nothing.
Nez Perez county delegates, par
ticularly, with Fl votes, instructed and
pledged for Congressman French,
went solid for Hamer for congress
because the delegates from Latah
county would not consent to support
c. A. Hastings, state treasurer from
Nez Perez county, for denomination.
The conduct of Tasting admin
stration has been vigorously attackee
from many sides. French's recorc
is one with which the people univer-
sally, almost, are pleased and yet hs
was ditched to assure the nomination
of Hastings.
The action of the Nez Perez ring
sters and delegates from other countie
who blackened the sincerity of thei
pledges and besmirched the meanin,
of the term, may have been politi
cally honest" but it isn't the sam
specie of truth that the old sage ha
in mind when he said, Honesty
the best policy
The Globe commends most heart
ly the conduct of the Idaho count
delegation which went as supporter
of French and voted for him to tn
last man. That's honesty.

We APOLOGIZE.

1.-The Duluth Labor World copied
our article on the manufacturers ban:
quet and gave credit to the Rochester
Labor Journal. We are not averse to
papers copying from ds, and believe
the editor of the World simply made q
mistake while crediting the article.
He gave credit to a good paper, any
way; but then the affair happened In
Erie, and was written and first printed
in the Union Labor Journal OF this
city,
The above is taken from the Union
Labor Journal of Erie, Pa, and we
wish to assure the publishers Of that
enterprising labor paper that the
slight was purely unintentional. The
article in question was so good, and
so nearly conformed to our opinions
that we could not resist the tempta'
ton to reproduce it for our own read
ers. How the credit became misplaced
we are, at loss to understand, but
can assure the Journal that 1t will not
occur again.

THE CITY PLAY GROUND.

A movement that has much to COM
mend itself to the minds of ali
thoughtful Duluthians was that insti-
tuted last Saturday morning by few
public spirited citizens at confer
ence held at the mayors office. The
securing of public play grounds for
our children is the object sought, and
it is one that appeals to us as being
worthy of the heartiest support and
cooperation of organized labor.
It is a move in the right direction
Duluth on account of it's physical
makeup is city peculiarly without
natural play grounds, especially as
regards the more central portions OF
the city. ....
n The chief criticism outsiders have
always offered in regard to our public
schools has been that we have mag
nificent buildings In which our chill
dren may toll but only the streets fol
them to play In. It is really Is i'm
portant that child's play be as wisely

explained from the view that what
the people should have known was
not taught them. and they were
stuffed full Of all the trash that
could be set before them, which was
Of no use to them.
We cannot today look forward to
some Moses to lead us out of the
Wilderness; we cannot expect to f1nd
a secret we'll Of some great love when
we can all become washed; we must
look not to the leadership of man, nor
to that which is said by individual
man, but that which is said by collec-
tive mankind and womankind. It
seems at times that the brutal condi-
tfons, which we see around us play
a strain upon our heartstrings, that
seems at times to ask for vengeance
against those who usurp the rights
Of humanity. -.~ ~ u. W..
If the Intelligence within the work

There is but one thing for the
workers to do, and that thing is to
organize upon the political field as
strongly as they have upon the econ

This can be done by joining the So

EvERYBoDY's COLUMN.
/ THE worker.

AS we observe the conditions that
surround us in our every day life,
we are compelled TO notice the motive
or force which causes the average
person to do things, or say certain
things; we find beneath that motive
a force, which causes us to- recog-
nize one fact, whether the recognition
Is conscious or unconscious does not
seem plain to all persons
But as fast as people become aware
that there are wrongs, and that those
wrongs have their origin in the one
fundamental wrong Of our day. and
as soon as they: become conscious of
the fact. that the abuse of the rights
of the people are brought about, by
the right of one man to exploit an
other man, and thereby rob him Of
portion Of his earnings, and through
this robbery, or exploitation, the en-
ployer Is able to accumulate sur
means to live; but uses it that he
may gain control: Of the material
forces that are required by other
men, in order that they too may live.
The question here may arise, Does
|not the man of brains deserve a
greater remuneration for his service
than the man who does not possess
as large a brain? Are they not both
Of them the products OF nature? Has
one of them made his brain different
than nature had intended it to be?
Or, has the other extracted a por-
ton OF his brain and thereby made
1t less fit to earn a. living? No, we
must still cling to the thought that
whatever in the form of brain pow
er one possesses over another it is
not Of his own creation, and there
fore, should not be entitled to own
and control the forces of nature as
land, railroads, mines mills and fac
tories, and to have such absolute
control Of them as pleases him In
the position Of master, and compells
the other to sell to the master the
labor power OF which he alone Is the
possessor for wage that Is insuffi-
cient to, allow him to live and sup
port his family. =:
We read a great~many books and
papers today, but there are very few
Of them that teach the truth of the
cause Of the wrong that: exists today.
The reason of this is because Of ig-
norance, and because some of them
| willfully mistake the truth, because
their economic condition is betterel
by their doing so. That there should
be so much suffering in a land as
great and good as ours, can. only be
