Governors Remarks.

During his remarks the governor
said in part: I'VE have in the state
of Idaho, one of the best sections OF
the country that is to be found on
the globe, and our area covers 900
square miles of good, rich soil. We
are the richest in way of coal and
minerals of any state in the union.
and for timber we have more than
both Minnesota and Wisconsin COM
bined.
Il feel highly honored by having
so many of the citizens of this beau
tiful little city come out to this in
formal reception, which you say is
given in my honor, and before leav-
ing the building / want to shake
hands with every person here. We
are all residents of this beautiful and
healthful state, and there can be
found no better place than Idaho.
I'VE have the irrigated fruit lands
in abundance and each year brings
many, many additional tracts and
pretty soon it will be but one solid
field of beauty and fruit of all kinds.
No place in the world can be found
where there are better apples and
,, our system of irrigation is the best
to be found anywhere.
At this point the governor took
occasion to pay high tribute to Prof.
Chas. Johnson, superintendent of the
Occur d'Alene public schools, whom
he had known for many years, and
among other things he said; you
have in this city one of the best in
structors in the state of Idaho, and
you should be proud of having him at
the head of your schools"
| The speaker demonstrated to the
citizens of the city last evening that
he was a firm believer in Idaho, the
state over which he is the chief
executive and remarked, 81 do be-
lieve in the state of Idaho and her
people. Fasteners are coming to

At the conclusion of the governors
address Mr.. Kerl introduced ]. A.

tary of the Spokane County Good

Mining Man is MarOoned On Desert.

Having passed a night marooned
on the open desert with a broken
automobile, and with only a quality
of "cauned stuff for food, Z. F.
Hansen, a mining man, returned to
the city from a trip of inspection
through wide range of mineral cOun-
try south of Tucson. The accident
was due to interior troubles in the
mechanism of the automobile, but
chiefly to the blowing out of one of
the tires, near Robes.
Mr. Hansen was accompanied by a
boy who drove the car. Being I'M
able TO repair it themselves, they
made camp in the open as best they
could and spent the night, eating
cold canned goods for their supper
and breakfast. AS a result, Mr..
Hansen is at present undergoing
minor illness arising from dissatis-
fed stomach.
In the morning they managed to
get the automobile under way and
iolted along on the rims to a point
eight miles this side of Robes, where
they got in telegraphic communica-
ton with Tucson and had another
car sent out to help them into town.

New Hotel For South Clifton.

For the past several weeks a large
force of workmen have been engaged
in remodeling the Santa Teresa build
ing in south Clifton, preparatory to
its being occupied as a first-class
boarding and rooming house. The
building has been thoroughly
renovated and newly furnished and is
equipped with up-to date appliances
in the hotel line. The cuisine will
also be uaxcelled. Delicious home
cooked dishes will be served and the
meals will be the best in Clifton for
the money.
The new place will be known as the
"Swastika Hotel'' with Turner q
Fisk as proprietors. On next Sunday,
September 18th, the hotel will be
formally opened tc the public, when
an appetizing dinner will be served
from 11:30 to 2:30 O'Clock. The menu
will be found in another column of
this issue. The menu for Sunday
dinners will be published in each
issue of the ERA and a special in
vitation is extended to the married
people who do not wish to be fatigued
with Sunday cooking. Dainty
souvenirs have been provided for
each guest on next Sunday, and the
service will leave nothing to be
desired.
Hill's addition has long been in
character and the present one will fill
long felt want. We bespeak for
the new ablishment unbounded
success and would advise all who can
to be present at the initial dinner on
next Sunday, when each guest will be
assured of the best meal to be served
in town.

School Starts Monday

When the bell rings Monday morn
ing at o'clock about 500 grammar
grade pupils will again take up theil
school work. This coming school
year should be our banner year for
attendance, progress and general uni
( fication towards a better school sys-
TEN. 1t is the duty of every citizen
in Clifton 20 get behind our schools
with all the good will, and help. that
he or she may have. Don't find fault
but see if you can't help if not in one
way in some other. The best adver-
tiser any town can have lies in the
degree of perfection its schools at
tain to. Remember that the best
citizens outside like to hear favor
able reports of your school, so boost.
The time has passed when you can
cite some mau who has made a sue
cess in a financial way, without any
education. Time was when the op-
portunities were more and greater
because our population was less, but
now in the last fifty or sixty years
the applicants for propositions have
increased one hundred fold. This
condition makes it possible for the
job to demand the best equipped.
The greatest asset of the American
nation today is her schools and it lies
not only in the schools but the spirit
with which the present generation
has taken hold of them. So although
the present board may seem It times
to disagree with you in the admins
tration of affairs don't knock but
help them out. We have every rea-
son to believe that the present year
is to be a landmark in our progress.
Boost the schools.
Tuesday night the board met and
divided the town into districts naming
the districts after the school CEN
trally located in each. The school
formerly called the South Clifton
school shall be known as the Hill
school ami tac territory from the
point of rOlks south and east with
HIPS Flat entire, shall be known as
the Hill district. The school former
ly known as the North Clifton school
shall be called Colquhoun school and
the territory taking in East Clifton
and from the point of rocks extend
ing around Patterson's addition and
North Clifton entire shall be called
district. The Chase
Creek school shall be called Egan
school and its territory will start at
the point Of rock on the west side of !
The river and take in Chase Creek en-
tire. The school known as the Shan |
non Hill school shall be called Bonnie |
school and its district shall be com
posed of that territory beginning at
The point of rocks will extend gener-
ally south and take in Riverside and
shannon hill. The object of this
division will become obvious as the
school year progresses.
W. J. Moore has been secured to |
ianitor the schools and act as
officer. 1t might be well for
Indifferent parents to get some in
formation regarding the course taken
BY the law~when they do not enforce
school childreu's attendance.
In as much as the greater part of |
the repairing has been done to fit our
High School the opening of that
branch will be delayed until the 26th |
