payers league of Leavenworth county

brought in the name of the attorney
general or of Mr.. Bond.
If Mr.. Bond refuses, the action will

ANANIAs-

Arthur Mckee. Colin Dawson
and Frank Blaekmer are plowinp
this week.
Jim Reed is helping r. d.
Stahl get his hay out from the
G. G. Clark place on the lake.
Mr.. Henney has been helping
Bert Porter get his house fixed
up since he moved it back next
to the hill. Bert expects to seed
about fifty acres this fall.
All Sunsetters are telling each
other what fine potato crops they
have. Ike Swift was heard to
remark that he would have po-
tatoes for two this winter.
Our school has been closed a
few days this week while Miss
Holder attended the institute.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Dickenson
visited their homestead this
week.
Mr.. Beck has gone to John
Day for fruit. He expects to
bring in load for sale.
We are proud of our prize win
,ners at the Harney county fair.
Robert Settlemyre carried off
two prizes in the livestock divi-
sion and Mr.. Conrad one. while
our most progressive farmers,
Mr.. Holder and e. c. Eggleston,
captured several prizes in the
vegetable line. We believe that
none of the new settlers, and
very few of the older ones, can
show better record.
M. j. Nash and Henry Black
are at home for a few days with
their well drilling outfit TO allow
Mr.. Nash to harvest his potato
crop.
/. s. Tyler is certainly one of
our farmers who is not discourage
ed. He is preparing to break up
quite a body Of new land in ad-
dition to that which he already
has under cultivation. He has
also built a substantial barn and
other out buildings this summer.
We need more farmers like Mr..

solution was introduced and read
by Prof. Collier and adopted by
a unanimous vote:

probation of the earnest, faith
full efforts of Supt. Ackerman
and Prof. Alderman in bringing
to US so many valuable helps;
therefore, we tender them a vote
of thanks for imparting to US in
creased power, inspiration and
enthusiasm"
Prof. Alderman is one of the
very thorough educators of the
northwest and his long service as
state superintendent has been
devoted to improving the public
school systems of the state in a
manner that has been very bene-
fetal. His lecture Thursday eve
ming was excellent and met with
favor by a crowded house. The
people are much interested in
our educational institutions and
we are pleased to see them turn
out on occasions of this kind.
Prof. Alderman's talk to par.
ents on last evening was except
ionally fine, and one that should
be remembered.
