PRESIDENT NOT
WITH INSURGENTS
Secretary Of War Has Policy
for Enlargement Of
the Army

WASHINGTON March 9.-Presi-
dent Taft is reported today to have
invited only the supporters of Speak
er Cannon to the conference which
will be held at the White House this
evening for the purpose of consider
ing proposed changes in the rules of
the house. This, it is said, indicates
that the president is not in sympathy
with the insurgent forces in their
fight against the arbitrary rules in
voked by the speaker.
Secretary to Enlarge Army.
WASHINGTON, March. 9.-Secre-
tary of War Dickinson today an
nounced that the principal object to-
ward which he would bend his ener-
gies during his administration would
be the enlargement of the army. He
stated that so far he had no plans to
announce, but that he considered the
increase of the efficiency and size of
the national guard as one of the most
important steps to be taken.

SCHOOL BOARD
FAILS TO ELECT
Hears Applications and Takes
Vote for Superintendent

The. school board met last even
ing. and after exhausting the English
language In words of eulogy and
praise adjourned until Monday even
ing. Prior to going into the regular
session the board held short exec
utive session of its own, and the reg
ular session was commenced with a
reading of the minutes of the pre-
vious meeting. 1t then commenced
with consideration of sundry mat
tiers, among them the awarding of
some wood contracts, but 1t soon
disposed of these matters-left all
sordid things behind, and went soar
ing on outstretched wings into the
regions Of the lofty and sublime. The
board had met ostensibly for the cleo
tion of school superintendent, and
there were in all 54 applications
all of them good men and therein lay
the trouble that precipitated an ad-
journment, as the board confessed
itself, by reason of 1t, unable to agree
upon any applicant. The chairman
read OF the names of all the appli-
cants in rapid offhand way. The
addresses were not given, but before
the session was over it was forcibly
impressed upon the members of the
board, and the interested spectators
in attendance, that one OF them was
from Kansas, and that he possessed
all the virtues that a man coming
from that state might reasonably be
expected to have.
County Superintendent o. R.
Shern appeared before the board and
advised it that a joint institute
would be held from March 20 to APP
ril in the city between the counties
of Shoshone, Bonner and Kootenai,
and that the new Methodist church
had been rented for the occasion. He
asked for the use of three rooms in
the Central school building, and his
request was granted.
superintendent Submits Report.
Superintendent Barton submitted
his report. The report covered the
work of the students in the class
room, and also the examinations
showed their standings in both. and
1t was submitted for the considera-
ton of the board
The superintendent advised the
board that the high school was in
need of another instructor, and more
room. He stated that nine students
would graduate from the high school
this year, and that 80 more would be
added next year. and there was not
enough room to accommodate them.
The matter was referred for consid-
Grafton to the appropriate committee.
Award Wood Contract.
The bids for a contract to furnish
the school with 800 cords of wood
were then opened, and the contract
was awarded to the Grier & Ruger
Fuel company at $3.50 a cord on con
dition that it would furnish a suffic-
lent bond for the faithful perform
ance of the contract. The other bids
submitted were: ]. f. Babcock.

Vote Fails to Eject.

Vote Fails to Elect.
The matter OF electing a superin-
tendent was then taken up and con
sidered The names of 81 appli-
cants we're read by Chairman White,
and upon the conclusion of the read
ing OF the list Superintendent Barton
arose and stated that his application
was not to be found among the list,
but that he stood upon his record 10
the schools. Chairman White re-
marked that he had certainly done
good work, and stated that his rec
ord would be considered.
A vote was then taken on the ap-
plicants submitted. but it failed to
elect. w. d. Vincent, of Kansas, re-
ceived one vote; r. N. Wright, OF
Lewiston, one; H. H. Barton. three,
and Charles Johnson, one. 1t re.
CURED four votes to elect, and the
chairman declared that since the
highest vote cast for any one candi-
date was three. there was no election.
BARTON Thanks Board.
Superintendent Barton upon the
conclusion of the ballot arose and
thanked the members of the board
for their consideration in voting for
him. He stated that it was more
than he expected. but that he would
relieve the board from any further
consideration of his name. The board
then proceeded to take another bal
lot, and this resulted in one ballot be-
ing cast for H. H. Barton, A. G. Da-
Wis, Charles Johnson. and r. N.
Wright, and two for w. d. Vincent.
Superintendent Barton again arose
and addressed the board, and gave
his reasons for withdrawing his
name. He stated that he did not do
so because he was afraid OF an inves-
tigation of his work-not anything
that he was ashamed Of, but that his
work was open to the fullest of in
vestigation, and that upon its merits
he stood. He stated that he felt that
certain influential business men were
arrayed against him. and that with
them against him he would not be
able to discharge the duties OF the
office Of superintendent as they
should be discharged. that 1t would
operate to the injury of the schools,
and for the sake OF the schools as
well as himself he had withdrawn his
name from further consideration.

RAISING LAKE
DESTROYS LAND
Claimed That a Loss of $4,000
Acres Will Result

me committee appointed at the
last regular meeting OF the CONNER
cial club to make an investigation OF
the character of lands to be con-
demned and overlooked by the WASH
ington Water Power company under
an easement recently secured by It
from the department Of the interior,
and also the condemnation and over
flowing OF lands in general along the
lake and st. Maries country by the
corporation, has completed it's labor.
and will report to the club this even-
ing.
For the past two weeks there has
been a government inspector in the
field investigating the character OF
the land for the overlooking OF which
the company secured the easement
and the committee made an effort to
have conference with him. but
failed. The inspector is said to have
remarked TO settlers that the com
pany secured the easement under
fraudulent Representations
the representation that the land was
a vast swamp--that no one would
suffer an injury by II being over
flowed, and IL reported as having
stated that whenever the real facts
came within the knowledge of the
interior department that the ease
ment will be revoked.
$4,000 Acres to be Overlowcd.
While the committee was unable
10 meet the inspector II had con-
ference with the delegation OF st.
Maries citizens and prominent bust
ness men, and secured from them
valuable facts concerning the situa-
ton, and the matter will be present.

what the injury will be to Occur

of land In the up-river country Is
permitted TO go on undated. II H.
estimated THAI the lands which will
be oveFhowed under the easement,
together with those which will be
oyerfiowed under the easement
with those which will be overlooked
II the suits started IN the courts for
that purpose by the company against
settlers are successful Will aggregate
$4,000 acres. Nearly all of this land
is on an agricultural character. and
a great portion OF II was used for the
raising OF hay until It was flooded by
the company. Some is still being
used for that purpose but will be
completely destroyed I'm the event
that some way cannot be devised to
put an end to the corporations con-
demning II for its own private use.
From an agricultural point OF view
II Is estimated that the loss OF this
large amount OF land will infiict
